Gu Yuena's Expectations
Furthermore, the conflicts between nobles and sects within the Dou Ling Empire Kingdom are not deep-seated, there are not many intricate details, and internal strife is minimal. Their main strategy is to survive, develop their strength, and remain uncontested.
The disadvantages are also obvious: the overall strength is too weak. The high-level combat power is not good enough, and even the Titled Douluo can't be gathered together. The number of Soul Master is small, the economy is backward, and the Soul Guidance Technology is practically non-existent.
On the mainland, it has always played a passive, opportunistic role, siding with whoever is stronger, and has little say in the matter. It is a typical "potential victim in the great power game."
The ending was surprisingly good.
Because of its remote location and weak strength, when the Sun Moon Empire forces attacked, they didn't consider it a primary target at all, only sending a detachment to fight it, and they haven't been able to take it down yet.
Throughout the entire war, Dou Ling Empire suffered the least losses and its foundation was not damaged.
After the war, it remained a peaceful small country. Although it had no right to contend for hegemony, the lives of its people were actually much more stable than those of the people of the other two countries.
Shrek Academy, Inner Court Office.
The words in her mind made Zhang Lexuan stop in her tracks. She looked at the tall buildings in the distance, her brows furrowed slightly.
As one of the leaders of the Shrek Academy, she was well aware of the problems in the Three Kingdoms.
"Lin Ye's insight is indeed profound; every word he uttered hits the nail on the head."
She sighed softly, her tone heavy. "The problems accumulated during the Three Kingdoms period are too deep-rooted to be changed overnight. If a full-scale war really breaks out, it will ultimately be the ordinary people who suffer."
She looked up towards the Outer Court in the distance, where countless young students were still diligently cultivating to become stronger.
Shrek's attempt to protect this peace will likely only become increasingly difficult.
Upon hearing about the entanglement between the sects and the Imperial Family of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Tang Ya recalled some things.
The Tang Sect was once deeply rooted in the Heavenly Soul Empire, and it was incredibly glorious during its heyday. But when it declined, no sect or Imperial Family offered a helping hand.
"What sects and empires? In the end, it's all just about interests."
She murmured, a hint of stubbornness flashing in her eyes. "Even if the Tang Sect has declined, it will not rely on anyone to survive. One day, I will make the Tang Sect stand up again, by ourselves."
To put it bluntly, these three empires, though appearing to be the orthodox and righteous benchmarks of humanity, are essentially remnants of the old era. They have been clinging to the old ways of the traditional Soul Master system for tens of thousands of years, and have long since reached their end.
Internally, they were wary of each other and constantly engaged in infighting; externally, they were slow to react and clung to outdated ideas. If it weren't for Shrek Academy intervening and forcing them to join forces, they would have been swallowed up one by one by the Sun Moon Empire long ago.
Even without the Sun Moon Empire attacking, this system relying on hereditary nobility wouldn't last long.
Soul Beast resources will eventually run out, and class stratification will eventually collapse; the only difference is when.
Ultimately, they are no different from the Sun Moon Empire Cult and the Holy Spirit Cult; they are all players within this old set of rules. No one is more noble than anyone else, and none can escape the backlash of these rules.
[What distinction between good and evil, orthodoxy and heresy? If you dig deeper, it's all about grabbing resources and surviving.]
In this cannibalistic system of rules, there are no true winners.
Shrek City, restaurant.
After listening to Lin Ye's summary, Wang Dong'er couldn't help but wrinkle her nose.
"This is so unfair! Why should resources be controlled by nobles and major sects? Don't Soul Master from common backgrounds deserve to become stronger?"
She muttered under her breath, her tone full of resentment. "What traditional rules and regulations? They're just excuses used by those who benefit from the status quo to oppress others. If everyone truly had a fair chance, there wouldn't be so much trouble on the mainland."
The Far North.
After reading the diary entries, Ice Empress's blue eyes were filled with mockery.
"Humans are so boring. Such a small continent, yet they've divided it into three countries that are constantly fighting and robbing each other."
She scoffed, "Once Soul Beast on the mainland are dead, will they still come all the way to the Far North?"
The Snow Empress's voice was as soft as falling snow. "The law of the jungle is the law of nature; they are just trapped in their own cages without realizing it."
"When their resources run out, they'll collapse on their own without anyone having to lift a finger."
Ice Empress curled his lip and moved closer to Snow Empress: "Anyway, they can't reach the Far North, so let them do whatever they want. If they really dare to try to attack the Far North, I'll freeze them all into ice sculptures."
Star Dou Forest, at the Lake of Life.
After listening to all the analyses, Gu Yuena slowly opened her eyes, her purple vertical pupils completely calm.
Lin Ye sees things clearly.
Her voice echoed softly at the bottom of the silent lake, "Human infighting and the extinction of Soul Beast are never accidental. These rules exist to bind all living beings."
She looked up at the surface of the lake, her gaze gradually becoming unfocused, as if she were deep in thought.
"Smash the rules, rebuild order..."
There was no longing in Gu Yue's eyes, even though Lin Ye was mysterious and the Diary Copy was also mysterious.
However, she still doesn't quite trust Lin Ye; it's not that she completely distrusts him, but rather that she harbors an instinctive suspicion.
After all, this was too much of a shock to her. The inexplicable Diary Copy made her want to bring Lin Ye to her.
Immediately afterwards, she was stared at by a supreme gaze. Under that gaze, she felt as if her Divine Soul was about to shatter, and her whole body was about to explode.
Even if she had recovered halfway, she wouldn't have been able to withstand even the slightest bit of that gaze, let alone when she was at her peak.
After that, she behaved herself and no longer had that thought. She only wanted to figure out how to establish a relationship with Lin Ye, but she never found a good opportunity.
However, she could tell from Lin Ye's diary that Lin Ye didn't actually hate Soul Beast that much.
Perhaps because Lin Ye is a transmigrator, he doesn't have the innate hatred that native Douluo Continent people have for Soul Beast.
Moreover, all the Soul Ring and Soul Bone Lin Ye has acquired so far have been rewards obtained from the Diary Copy; she hasn't hunted any Soul Beast, which she finds extremely rare.
More importantly, Lin Ye not only did not discriminate against or be hostile towards Soul Beast Soul Beast, but he even felt that Soul Beast were pitiful, tragic, and dissatisfied with their current situation.
I feel that the Heavenly Dao of Douluo Star is simply blatantly allowing living beings to kill each other.
Some people also see the problem, but they have no way, no ability, and no power to change it.
But Lin Ye is different. Although she doesn't know if Lin Ye will eventually grow to the level of God King or even above God King that she mentioned.
However, the wonders of the Diary Copy have far exceeded her expectations, which has given her a Sisi of hope.
What if? What if Lin Ye really becomes a god in the future, or even a God King or something above God King? Would he really take action to change everything on the Douluo Continent and the entire Douluo Star?
Once he becomes a god, Lin Ye will have the ability to change some things.
