-------------------------

At this moment, Yang Xiong stood alone in the sky, overlooking the entire Jialing Pass battlefield. He regarded everyone below as mere ants, showing no fear even under the gaze of the Asura God and the Evil God King.

The Evil God King and the Asura God watched Yang Xiong's actions but said nothing more. After all, Tang San was already dead, and among the ordinary people at Jialing Pass, Yang Xiong was now the strongest. 

The Evil God King sneered: "Yang Xiong, you've disrupted all my plans. When you ascend to the divine realm, I'll hold you accountable." 

Yang Xiong replied: "Evil God King, I'll take responsibility for everything I've done. But as an enforcer, your actions today have also violated the rules of this world. When the time comes, I'll seek you out as well." 

The Evil God King's expression turned icy, and without another word, he vanished without a trace. 

On the other hand, the Asura God gazed at Yang Xiong, his expression shifting unpredictably. Finally, he couldn't help but sigh. 

"Yang Xiong, why do you insist on this? Though Evil may be a bit extreme, his actions weren't wrong—he did everything to maintain stability in the divine realm." 

Yang Xiong responded: "Lord Asura God, the stability of the divine realm relies on all the gods maintaining it together. It depends on the prosperity and development of the Douluo world, not on scheming against the spirit beast race or sacrificing the entire Douluo continent. Order and stability depend on everyone, not just the strength of one individual." 

The Asura God pondered deeply: "Perhaps you're right. In any case, I'm about to step down, and from then on, you'll have to face everything on your own. However, let me give you a piece of advice—don't underestimate anyone, and don't underestimate the darkness within people's hearts." 

"This time, you were lucky, and you managed to hide your true strength, so Tang San's ambush failed. Otherwise, you might have really been in danger. Evil's strength far surpasses Tang San's, and he's even the strongest among our Five Great God Kings." 

Yang Xiong gave a slight bow: "Thank you for your guidance, Lord Asura God. In this world, strength is always supreme, even in the divine realm." 

After saying this, the Asura God's blood-red figure gradually dissipated. Only then did everyone on the Jialing Pass battlefield breathe a sigh of relief. Even though it was only a projection of the Asura God's consciousness, his presence far surpassed Yang Xiong's. 

Yang Xiong looked over the battlefield once more, deep in thought. He was contemplating how to conclude this war and even how the entire Douluo world would develop moving forward. 

Xiao Wu glared at Yang Xiong with hatred: "Yang Xiong, you've gone too far, you're too ruthless. You actually killed Brother San—I'll never forgive you!" 

Yang Xiong's eyes narrowed, and a terrifying pressure immediately bore down on Xiao Wu, sending her flying backward. 

Yang Xiong's final full-force strike had only killed Tang San and hadn't targeted anyone else. Perhaps he had been a bit too merciful. 

Seeing Xiao Wu's vengeful expression, Yang Xiong couldn't help but shake his head: "Xiao Wu, you are a member of the spirit beast race, not a human. I suggest you leave quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless." 

Xiao Wu's eyes filled with tears of rage: "Go ahead and kill me too! That way, I can join Brother San." 

Yang Xiong's expression shifted slightly, and a hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes. With a light wave of his hand, a colossal palm descended toward Xiao Wu. 

"If you want to die, then I'll grant your wish. I've already shown you enough mercy." 

Before the giant palm could descend, Ning Rongrong hurriedly spoke up: "Little Bear, don't! Xiao Wu is just too emotional. We're all classmates—don't be so harsh." 

Yang Xiong turned to look at Ning Rongrong and shook his head: "I don't want to make enemies with anyone, but I won't spare anyone who tries to harm me either." 

Then Yang Xiong addressed Xiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, from the perspective of the spirit beast race, ask yourself this—if someone wanted to kill you, would you let them live?" 

"Perhaps you haven't realized it yet, but the Tang San now is completely different from the Tang San of Shrek Academy. The current Tang San is filled with murderous intent, utterly evil, and even his mentality has changed." 

"Besides, the Tang San you knew is already dead. Especially after he accepted the inheritance of the Rasha God, he became the embodiment of the most evil force in this world. Even the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python were killed because of him." 

Xiao Wu's face turned pale: "You're lying! Brother San has always been my closest person. He promised to protect me with his life—he would never harm my family!" 

Yang Xiong looked at Xiao Wu's overly emotional state and turned to Qian Renxue: "Qian Renxue, after Bibi Dong was injured, did she even have the chance to go to the Star Dou Forest to hunt down the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python?" 

Qian Renxue revealed a mocking smile: "This is quite amusing. Don't pin everything on Bibi Dong. After Bibi Dong was injured in the previous battle at Jialing Pass, she returned directly to the Spirit Hall City. At that time, all the top experts of the Spirit Hall Empire were here at Jialing Pass. Bibi Dong alone couldn't possibly hunt down both the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python simultaneously. It's likely that their deaths were part of Tang San's scheme." 

Xiao Wu's face turned ashen: "This can't be true! This can't be true! Brother San wouldn't harm Da Ming and Er Ming—they're my closest brothers and my last remaining family!" 

Yang Xiong chuckled: "If you want to know how the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python died, you can go to the Star Dou Forest and ask the other spirit beasts. The simultaneous deaths of two hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts would surely have been noticed or witnessed by others." 

Xiao Wu glared at Yang Xiong with anger: "You're lying! I refuse to believe Brother San is like that. I'm going back to the Star Dou Forest to investigate. If Brother San really harmed Da Ming and Er Ming, I'll come back to avenge him!" 

With that, Xiao Wu swiftly left the Jialing Pass battlefield, heading back to the Star Dou Forest. 

Yang Xiong scanned the crowd at Jialing Pass once more, his gaze finally landing on Principal Flender: "Principal Flender, since things have reached this point, I advise you to leave immediately. If you persist in opposing me, the consequences will be on your own head." 

Flender's eyes revealed confusion and sorrow: "Yang Xiong, back at Shrek Academy, our academy didn't do much to help you. Why did you hold back just now?" 

Yang Xiong smiled: "Regardless, Flender, you've been a competent principal. Besides, you were only acting as a principal should. Leave now, and don't appear before me again." 

Flender fell silent. Originally, he had come to protect his students and his late brother's only disciple, but with his current strength, he was powerless to stop any of this. 

Aside from Flender, Yu Xiaogang now seemed to have fallen into madness. He had been holding Tang San's hand, but now it was empty. Although his body hadn't been struck, his spirit seemed to have completely collapsed. 

"Yang Xiong, you're heartless! How could you really kill Xiao San? What you've done is utterly inhumane!" 

Yang Xiong's expression shifted slightly: "Yu Xiaogang, your disciple wanted to kill me—is it fair for you to say I can't retaliate? Do you think I'll let a cripple attack me without consequences?" 

Before Yu Xiaogang could respond, Flender pulled him away, and they quickly departed. 

Now, only a few high-ranking officials from the Tian Dou Empire remained on the battlefield, along with experts from the Hao Tian Sect, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the Spirit Hall Empire, and the Body Sect. The outcome of the battle was clear—Yang Xiong had overwhelmed everyone with his strength. 

The members of the Hao Tian Sect, including Tang Xiao, were filled with anger, but their power was far too weak. Even Tang Xiao, the strongest among them, was only at level ninety-seven and incapable of continuing the fight. Forget about Yang Xiong—even Qian Renxue could easily annihilate them. 

Qian Renxue looked at Yang Xiong with resentment: "Yang Xiong, even though I've lost to you, the Spirit Hall Empire won't be slaughtered like lambs. If necessary, we'll fight again!" 

Qian Renxue had been severely injured by Tang San's ambush and, despite still being a hundred-level god, her strength was far inferior to Yang Xiong's. Based on Yang Xiong's final display of power, even three Qian Renxues might not be a match for him. 

Yang Xiong ignored Qian Renxue and swept his gaze across the battlefield: "From this moment on, the war is over. Anyone who dares to continue fighting will die!" 

As Yang Xiong's words echoed, everyone at Jialing Pass felt as if divine authority had descended upon them. Their very souls were oppressed—it was the overwhelming pressure of a god upon ordinary soul masters. Everyone felt like mere ants. 

The Spirit Hall Empire's soul master legion and army, which had intended to continue fighting, were now shaken to their core. They realized that if they resisted further, they would be reduced to ashes and killed like insects. 

The Spirit Hall Empire's armies slowly laid down their weapons, and all the soul masters withdrew their martial souls, surrendering completely. 

The six Worships of the Spirit Hall Empire were filled with unwillingness, but Qian Renxue was still injured, and her strength was clearly far inferior to Yang Xiong's. They had lost all will to fight. 

On the other hand, the warriors and soul masters of the Tian Dou Empire erupted in cheers, celebrating the victory of the war. Especially the members of the Body Sect and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes filled with boundless admiration. 

Yang Xiong was the sect leader of the Body Sect and a disciple of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Now, as the strongest warrior on the battlefield and a god-like figure, he had become the true faith of the two sects, holding an unparalleled position within them. 

As for the members of the Hao Tian Sect, though the war had ended, they remained utterly disheartened. Though they might not have to fight anymore, their sect's god had fallen, and the future of their sect was truly over.
