Chapter 234 The Emergence of the Three.
Upper Sects After 20 years of development, the Douluo Continent has reached new heights in terms of economy, culture, and population.
Soul Masters are no longer as aloof as before. Due to the laws of the Douluo Federation, the status of Soul Masters and ordinary people seems to be narrowing, and the income gap is also decreasing.
Within the Douluo Federation government, there are even quite a few ordinary people and low-level Soul Masters holding relatively high positions.
In particular, some historical traces of the Soul Master world seem to be slowly being erased. There are no longer any so-called Three Upper Sects and Four Lower Sects; there are only some small and medium-sized sects. Even if a sect is relatively powerful, no one dares to stand out too much. If they do, they might be used as an example to deter others, which would be disastrous.
Such incidents are not uncommon within the Douluo Federation; on the contrary, they are quite frequent. Some high-level Soul Masters, relying on their strength and seniority in the Soul Master world, rashly establish sects, ignoring the law.
As a result, these people all met with tragedy. Before they could even celebrate, they were met with a large number of experts from the Judgment Department, resulting in the complete eradication of their sects. Their illegal activities were publicized in the newspapers, prompting countless people to complain: "Where did these idiots come from? They can't even see the times!"
Just when the Soul Master world was at peace, a thunderclap suddenly resounded.
The Clear Sky Sect, which had been in seclusion for 20 years, reappeared. Following closely behind, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect also emerged, perhaps unwilling to be erased from history.
All of this can be traced back to a few months ago.
At the Clear Sky Sect's ancestral land, all members of the Clear Sky Sect gathered, including the former sect leader Tang Chen, whose Soul Power reached level 99, and the sect leader Tang Xiao, whose Soul Power was level 98. There were about 200 people in total, representing the development of the Clear Sky Sect's disciples over the past 20 years.
However, apart from Tang Chen and Tang Xiao, there were no other Title Douluos, and there were only three Soul Douluos.
There were quite a few Soul Saints, but the rest were mainly below the Soul Saint level.
Twenty years ago, the Clear Sky Sect emerged from seclusion to fully support the Heaven Dou Empire. However, Bibi Dong ascended to godhood and massacred the Clear Sky Sect's disciples on the battlefield. All five Title Douluo elders perished; four were killed, and one was captured and ultimately sacrificed by the Spirit Empire at the Star Luo City battlefield.
It can be said that the battle twenty years ago essentially wiped out the Clear Sky Sect's core strength, leaving only some disciples hidden within the clan.
However, with the enforcement of the Douluo Federation's laws, the living space for free spirit masters or sect spirit masters has shrunk considerably, especially for these reclusive sects.
Now, almost all spirit beast forests in the spirit master world are fenced off, requiring tokens for entry. Obtaining a token requires registering at the local Awakening Hall, easily revealing one's information.
Similarly, the Douluo Federation's laws are strict, and spirit masters have virtually no privileges. Even the current sects have their own businesses to sustain themselves.
The Clear Sky Sect has twice retreated into seclusion, lasting approximately 50 years in total. The sect's foundation and finances have been nearly depleted. While the Heaven Dou Empire existed, they could rely on Tang Yuehua's Moon Pavilion to replenish their resources, but now that even the nobility has disappeared, who will learn noble etiquette?
Even if they were to hold a noble etiquette training program, they might be arrested the very next day, as the Douluo Federation's legal principles emphasize fairness and equality. Would holding a noble training program be considered a blatant disregard for the law?
Tang Chen, Tang Xiao, and Tang Yuehua discussed the Clear Sky Sect's future. Tang Yuehua meticulously described the Douluo Federation's laws, stating that as long as they complied with the law and didn't oppose the federal government, they would be largely unaffected.
For the past 20 years, Tang Yuehua has remained within the Clear Sky Sect, dedicating most of her time, aside from her elegant personal life, to studying the law with a depth of knowledge comparable to that of court officials.
Tang Chen and Tang Xiao were also deeply worried. If they continued their seclusion, the Clear Sky Sect might disappear on its own within another 100 years, without even needing an attack.
Tang Yuehua described in detail the policies of the Douluo Federation and the current situation of the Haotian Sect. She assured them that even after leaving the sect, as long as they obeyed the law, they would face no danger.
After Tang Yuehua's explanation, even the burly men of the Haotian Sect, wielding heavy hammers, picked up the law and began to read it. From the sect leader to the younger disciples, they found the Douluo Federation law like a foreign language, their heads spinning at the sight of the words. They became drowsy after only a few words.
Finally, Tang Yuehua, in desperation, transformed into a law teacher and lectured everyone from beginning to end, explaining the Douluo Federation's laws in detail.
As everyone knows, legal knowledge is the most dry of all knowledge, bar none. Even the literal meaning of a sentence can vary greatly from person to person.
The result was that while Tang Yuehua lectured enthusiastically, the students below were all drowsy, seemingly ready to fall asleep at any moment.
Finally, Tang Chen lost his temper. "Disciples of the dignified Haotian Sect, unable to even understand the law? What kind of image do you have? Anyone who doesn't learn it well will be punished according to the sect rules!"
Ultimately, with Tang Yuehua's patient and meticulous explanations, coupled with Tang Chen's iron-fisted educational policy, and after several months of effort, everyone could recite the Douluo Federation's laws. As for how much they truly mastered, that was another matter entirely.
Seeing this, Tang Chen, Tang Xiao, and Tang Yuehua decided that the Clear Sky Sect would reappear and return to the Soul Master world.
Tang Chen himself even visited Phoenix City to discuss the sect's reappearance and subsequent development.
Upon seeing Tang Chen, the ministers of the Douluo Federation exchanged bewildered glances, unsure how to handle the Clear Sky Sect's emergence. Emperor Wang Xiaofei, on the other hand, had been nowhere to be seen in recent years.
Ultimately, the Minister of the Judgment Department, Sword Douluo, and the Minister of Administration, Huo Wushuang, received them.
Even Tang Chen, who had traversed the continent for most of his life, was somewhat surprised to see the two.
Sword Douluo had actually broken through to level 99 after a lifetime of effort, reaching the highest level of the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul. Huo Wushuang, only in his forties, had already reached level 98, demonstrating boundless potential.
Especially within the capital of the Douluo Federation, there were dozens of Title Douluo auras, one of which was no weaker than his own, and several others were very close, probably all at level 98.
It was unbelievable that the Douluo Federation had grown so powerful in just 20 years.
This made Tang Chen determined that the Clear Sky Sect must emerge and could no longer remain in seclusion; otherwise, it would have no place in the Soul Master world.
After discussions between Sword Douluo, Huo Wushuang, and Tang Chen, Huo Wushuang ultimately confirmed and approved the Clear Sky Sect's emergence, including confirming its future business. Specifically, after its emergence, the Clear Sky Sect's main business would be blacksmithing, and it must comply with the laws of the Douluo Federation.
