Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 905 Artificial Soul Rings! (6K)

"But Zi Ji is also right. Star Dou Forest will never accept a slow death. If there is no better solution, the destruction of Star Dou Forest is just a matter of whether it is this thousand years or the next thousand years."

"This is a very long time for you humans, but for soul beasts, it makes no difference. Therefore, a holy war that gambles on the entire Star Dou Forest is not an unacceptable choice."

Di Tian's meaning was clear: he acknowledged that Star Dou Forest was the ultimate loser in this beast tide, but if Shrek Academy did not provide a solution, Star Dou Forest could guarantee that there would be more than one loser in this war.

Rather than waiting until the human world develops to the point where it can easily overwhelm the Star Dou Forest and only one side wins, Di Tian can at least choose to turn the number of losers from one to two now.

Upon hearing Di Tian's words, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion, though their expressions remained unchanged, all subconsciously looked at Chen Ping.

Di Tian is absolutely right. The reason why the Soul Beast World launched the beast tide was essentially a desperate struggle prompted by the emergence of a survival crisis. They had long been prepared for the possibility of being completely annihilated.

If this retreat only gives the Star Dou Forest a thousand-year respite, then dragging the human world down to hell now is not an unacceptable answer.

When the ferocious beasts of Star Dou Forest are convinced that their safety can no longer be guaranteed, they will not hesitate to unleash a beast tide, regardless of who rules Star Dou Forest, in order to avoid the tragedy of being slowly boiled like a frog.

Even if the success rate of doing so is frighteningly low, it is still better than leaving the problem to yourself a thousand years from now.

From the perspective of the Star Dou Forest, Di Tian's choice was actually quite rational. Even the elders of the Sea God Pavilion and the powerful figures from the Body Sect who came to help somewhat agreed with Di Tian's motives for launching the beast tide.

Put yourself in their shoes. If the situations were reversed, would they not have done such a thing?

Seeing the power of other races expand rapidly in a very short time, while the strength of one's own race takes an extremely long time to achieve even a negligible improvement, who could accept this? Who wouldn't gamble everything?
It is precisely because they understand Di Tian that the elders of the Sea God Pavilion and the powerhouses of the Body Sect are so conflicted.

Because they couldn't offer Di Tian a good solution, and they didn't know what to do to reassure Di Tian and the entire Star Dou Forest that they wouldn't be destroyed in the next millennium.

Among those present, very few could live to be two hundred years old. How could they possibly imagine how the relationship between humans and the soul beasts of the Star Dou Forest would be handled several thousand years from now!

Should we sign another contract with Star Dou Forest, just like before?

The Holy Spirit Church's ridiculously rudimentary plan to use one enemy to devour another has already proven how unreliable this idea is.

But if they don't do this, what else can they do?

For a moment, the human side fell into a collective silence.

No, will this negotiation ultimately end in a war that destroys both the human world and the soul beast world?

At this moment, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion suddenly felt at a loss, and the experts of the Body Sect felt a sense of despair as if they had accidentally entered a high-level game.

They only came to help Shrek Academy fight, but before the fight even started, they began discussing the ultimate question of the survival of the human world and the world of spirit beasts.

Are these little Karami qualified to answer such questions?
The Star Dou Forest's stance is firm: without a viable solution, they're prepared to perish alongside the human world. Chen Ping's scare tactics with the Cradle System were a lie; the Star Dou Forest's willingness to fight to the death is genuine. Di Tian has even prepared for the possibility that if the Silver Dragon King's existence is exposed, all life, including the Silver Dragon King, will perish together.

Will they be condemned for not being able to answer this question in the annals of human history?
For a moment, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion and the powerful figures of the Body Sect were all sweating profusely.

No, if we can't give this answer, humanity might have no future history—that's a truly heartbreaking answer!
Fortunately, in this suffocating environment, Chen Ping seemed oblivious, sweeping away the shattered negotiating table with a wave of his hand and then taking out a huge silver pillar.

"To be honest, this thing is still just a prototype and shouldn't be shown out so early. But since His Majesty the Beast God has described this matter as a matter of great importance that could affect the survival of both the human world and the soul beast world, let's show you a prototype first."

As he spoke, Chen Ping took out a glass bottle containing a lake of gold and silver water imbued with a faint divine power.

Chen Ping leaped to the very top of the enormous silver pillar and poured the lake water from the bottle down. Instantly, the silver pillar beneath him burst forth with dazzling silver and golden light, incredibly eye-catching.

"Poison Sect Master, to prevent His Majesty the Beast God from thinking this is just a trick of mine, please place your hand here and then inject your soul power into it."

Chen Ping jumped down from the pillar and gestured for Du Busi to demonstrate.

"Huh? Me?"

Poison Undying was taken aback, not knowing what Chen Ping was doing, but still stood up and, as Chen Ping had instructed, placed his palm on the pillar in front of him, which was made entirely of deep-sea silver.

As the soul power of the Undying Poison was injected into it, the golden and silver lake water quickly began to flow along the entire heavy silver pillar and was eventually slowly absorbed into the pillar. Everyone could feel that an extremely peculiar power was being nurtured inside the pillar.

"This...this is a power only gods possess!"

As the person who personally used this special soul tool, Du Busi was the one who sensed it most clearly, and he already had a terrifying guess in his mind.

Seeing the drastic change in Du Busi's expression, both Elder Xuan and Emperor Tian were curious about what Du Busi had sensed on this heavy silver pillar that caused him to lose his composure like this.

What exactly does it mean that only gods possess such abilities?
Di Tian didn't know, Xuan Zi didn't know, and no one present knew, but they all saw that at the bottom of the Silver Pillar, a wisp of white light was slowly condensing and taking shape.

"Wait, this, this is a spirit ring?"

In an instant, it was as if Elder Xuan's head had exploded. Looking at the milky white energy ring, he blurted out in extreme shock.

"what?!"

All the humans and soul beasts instantly erupted in chaos. Elder Xuan's words acted like a fuse, igniting the emotions of everyone on both sides of the negotiating table.
