Chapter 82: Liu Erlong's
Red-eyed dragon eyes narrowed slightly, her tone grave: "With the appearance of the Netherworld White Tiger, the Star Luo Empire's combat power has increased by more than one level."
"Zhu Zhuyun is currently level 50. With the Netherworld White Tiger's domineering power, she could even fight a level 60 Soul Emperor."
"Given time, if she breaks through to the Title Douluo realm, even Title Douluos would likely have to be wary."
A hint of vigilance flashed in Xuan Shuang's icy blue eyes: "The Star Luo Empire has always revered martial prowess, and its expansionist ambitions are blatantly obvious."
"Now that they have Zhu Zhuyun as a trump card, they will inevitably accelerate their expansion. The Heaven Dou Empire will be the first to bear the brunt, and it might even affect the sphere of influence of our Heavenly Path Academy."
Li Tianyi stood on the edge of the rooftop, his double pupils slightly shifting, his tone calm.
"The emergence of this list has already disrupted the original balance of the continent. The rise of the Star Luo Empire is an inevitable result. However, we don't need to worry too much."
He paused, then continued, "Although Zhu Zhuyun's strength has increased dramatically, her situation in the Star Luo Empire is not stable."
"The emperor's suspicion, the ostracism of the imperial family, and the crown prince's apprehension are all her weaknesses."
"Moreover, although the Netherworld White Tiger Martial Soul is powerful, it has only recently evolved, and she needs time to familiarize herself with and control it. We only need to observe the situation and at the same time accelerate the improvement of our own strength to deal with all the variables."
Zhu Zhuqing stood aside, her brows furrowed, her eyes sharp: "The Netherworld White Tiger is a combination of agility and power, possessing both speed and strength, and also has a corrosive effect of the Netherworld attribute."
Shui Bing'er nodded: "Zhuqing, you don't need to worry too much either. Your talent is more than ten times stronger than Zhu Zhuyun's, and our Tianxing Academy's resources are far richer than those of the Star Luo Empire."
"As long as you focus on your cultivation and break through to the Title Douluo realm as soon as possible, coupled with the academy's secret techniques, what can the entire Star Luo Empire do?"
A resolute glint flashed in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes: "I understand. I will improve my strength as quickly as possible and will not let her become a threat to our Tianxing Academy."
Inside the Haotian Sect's council hall, the atmosphere was equally heavy.
Tang Xiao and several elders sat together, their faces full of worry.
"The appearance of the Netherworld White Tiger has greatly increased the strength of the Star Luo Empire, which is not good news for our Clear Sky Sect."
The First Elder stroked his white beard, his tone heavy.
"The Star Luo Empire and our Clear Sky Sect have a long-standing feud. Now that they have Zhu Zhuyun as their trump card, if they join forces with Spirit City to deal with us, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The Second Elder echoed, "Yes, Sect Master. Zhu Zhuyun's Netherworld White Tiger Martial Soul is too domineering. At level 50, she can already contend with a Soul Emperor. Once she grows up, she will probably be even more troublesome than the Title Douluo of Spirit City."
"We must recall Tang Hao as soon as possible. Only with his return will we have enough confidence to deal with the threat from the Star Luo Empire."
Tang Xiao frowned deeply and said in a deep voice, "I have already sent people everywhere to search for Brother Hao's whereabouts, but so far there has been no news."
"However, we cannot rely solely on Brother Hao. Pass on my orders to strengthen the sect's defenses and accelerate the cultivation progress of the disciples, especially the younger generation of geniuses. Give them more resources."
"Furthermore, send someone to the Heavenly Dou Empire to discuss an alliance. With the rise of the Star Luo Empire, the Heavenly Dou Empire will inevitably feel threatened. An alliance at this time would be beneficial to both sides."
"Yes, Sect Master!" Several elders bowed in unison to accept the order.
In the far north ice plains, the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor stood side by side, gazing in the direction of the Star Luo Empire, their eyes filled with vigilance.
"The domineering power of the Netherworld White Tiger is precisely the counter to our ultimate ice."
A hint of worry flashed in the Ice Empress's emerald eyes. "If the Star Luo Empire uses this opportunity to expand, the far north border will likely be affected. Most of our people are afraid of the cold and are not good at fighting in warm environments. If the Star Luo Empire's army invades the far north, we may find it difficult to resist."
Snow Empress's body was enveloped in a gentle mist of snow, her tone cool yet firm: "No need to worry. The far north ice plains are our home ground. The environment here is extremely favorable to us, but it is a great test for the Star Luo Empire's army."
"Moreover, our ultimate power is not so easily restrained. As long as we prepare in advance and strengthen our border defenses, the Star Luo Empire may not dare to invade easily."
She paused, then continued, "However, we cannot be careless. Zhu Zhuyun's Netherworld White Tiger Martial Soul has boundless potential. If she breaks through to the Title Douluo realm, she may truly be able to break the environmental limitations of the far north ice plains.
We must accelerate our own cultivation, stabilize our ultimate power, and at the same time closely monitor the Star Luo Empire's movements."
The Ice Empress nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk towards the ice cave in the core area of the far north.
She knew that only with sufficient strength could she truly protect the people of the far north.
In the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, Gu Yuena sat upon the Dragon God Throne, a hint of disdain flashing in her pale purple eyes.
"A mere Netherworld White Tiger dares to stir up trouble? The humans of the Star Luo Empire are far too overconfident."
Di Tian stood beside her, his golden eyes filled with solemnity: "My lord, Zhu Zhuyun's martial soul evolution is too bizarre. The power of the rankings can rewrite the essence of a martial soul; the force behind this is not to be underestimated."
"Moreover, the Netherworld White Tiger has a natural suppressive power over soul beasts. If the Star Luo Empire uses this opportunity to hunt soul beasts and expand its own strength, it will be a huge threat to our Star Dou Great Forest."
Bi Ji echoed, "Di Tian is right, my lord."
"Zhu Zhuyun's strength has now skyrocketed, and the Star Luo Empire's ambitions will inevitably swell even further. They have frequently sent soul masters into the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts before; now, with the Netherworld White Tiger, they will likely become even more unscrupulous."
"We must strengthen the defenses of the Star Dou Great Forest and severely crack down on those human soul masters who have intruded."
Gu Yuena nodded slightly, her tone icy. "In that case, issue the order to close the outer area of the Star Dou Great Forest, prohibiting any human soul masters from entering."
"Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy! Furthermore, I have Di Tian personally oversee the outer perimeter of the core area. Once any soul master teams from the Star Luo Empire are discovered, annihilate them immediately, without hesitation!"
"Yes, Master!"
Di Tian and Bi Ji bowed simultaneously, accepting the order, a hint of killing intent flashing in their eyes.
Meanwhile, outside the Star Luo Empire's imperial city, an assassination attempt targeting Zhu Zhuyun was secretly brewing.
