Douluo Continent: Starting from Leading Ferocious Beasts to Transform into Demons

Chapter 19 The Farce at the Meeting

"Actually, the content of this meeting was very simple: to discuss the anomalies in the Star Dou Great Forest."

"However, due to the presence of those ferocious beasts inside the Star Dou Great Forest, sending a Title Douluo from a single force is practically suicide. That's why everyone is holding this meeting at Shrek Academy to discuss investigating together."

Moon briefly explained the purpose of the meeting and then said no more. Shrek Academy's goal was simply to continue to increase its influence and, incidentally, to let the world know that Shrek Academy was still the number one academy in the world.

"Before heading to the Star Dou Great Forest, I hope everyone will share their intelligence. This will at least greatly improve the safety of exploring the Star Dou Great Forest."

Yan Shaozhe stepped forward to speak on behalf of Mu En, but his words left everyone looking at each other in bewilderment, and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Yan Shaozhe was uneasy. On the surface, they said they would investigate together, but these forces must have secretly sent people to the Star Dou Great Forest to search for intelligence in advance. This was indeed the case. However, most of the spies died before they could send out any news, and those who came out alive did not have any valuable information.

However, Shrek Academy is just an academy. Although Yan Shaozhe felt that his teachers would be willing to sacrifice for Shrek Academy, he felt that they should not die like this.

Shrek Academy had an agreement with the ferocious beasts that high-level Soul Masters could not enter, and low-level Soul Masters would only be sent to their deaths. However, they could not blindly follow the beasts into the Star Dou Great Forest. In the end, Yan Shaozhe shamelessly used his teacher's prestige to try to obtain some information for free.

It's obvious that Shrek Academy wanted to get the intelligence for free, while the various forces had spent a lot of money to obtain this information amidst the chaos, but they had to reveal part of it due to Shrek Academy's power.

"According to intelligence from our scouts, there seems to be a problem in the central area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest. High-level ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts have all fled there and are wandering around in the mixed zone."

Jing Hongchen chuckled and was the first to respond to Yan Shaozhe's call, revealing the intelligence the Sun Moon Empire had obtained. The two people behind him looked at their grandfather with surprise.

Although he revealed the information, the others at the table looked at Jing Hongchen with disdain.

For example, the change in the activity area of ​​ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts—you could say it's useless, since Shrek Academy genuinely didn't know, and even a Title Douluo could die facing an encirclement by multiple high-level ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, it certainly raised their vigilance; but you could also say it's useful, since all the major powers knew about it.

Jing Hongchen did indeed reveal the information, and then it was the turn of others to speak. Everyone had roughly the same amount of information, and the information revealed later became more important. That's why everyone despised Jing Hongchen for revealing this almost useless information.

Jing Hongchen simply smiled at everyone, looking completely indifferent.

To be honest, he didn't have much hope for other people's intelligence. What era is this? Why send people to search for intelligence? Their Sun Moon Empire's latest high-altitude probe had already been sent out and obtained a lot of intelligence, but it was shot down before it even got close to the central area, which really made Jing Hongchen heartbroken for a long time.

Seeing that Jing Hongchen had taken the initiative to speak, and since the Sun Moon Empire had already spoken, the Douluo Three Kingdoms couldn't very well not speak, so he helplessly gave some unimportant information.

When it was the Body Sect's turn, Du Busi slammed his fist on the table and stood up, spitting wildly at Yan Shaozhe.

"Are you Shrek Academy beggars? You've been freeloading all this time. If I were a Shrek Academy student, I'd be too ashamed to face the seniors in the underworld. You're shamelessly clinging to this place, trying to get something for nothing."

Yan Shaozhe blushed as he was spoken to, and all the elders were furious. Erming and the various empires watched the show from the sidelines, while Mu En sighed softly on his recliner.

Only Xuan, the great Holy Spirit Cult's Supreme Elder, Shrek Academy's second strongest, and the Master of Accidents, bravely stepped forward to exchange barbs with Poison Undying.

"You're talking nonsense!"

Poison Undying crossed his arms and sneered.

"What 'Number One Academy in the World'? They should just give up and go to bed. A major power has to ask others for even this much information? Have they no shame?"

Poison Undying was very happy and felt great. Because the Body Sect acted freely and valued their own unrestrained behavior, they often couldn't stand up to reason. When they finally found themselves in the right, their opponent was Shrek Academy, so they had no choice but to criticize them relentlessly.

"Shrek Academy will send two more Title Douluos to accompany them, and Xuanzi will also be going."

Moon's voice rang out, stopping the farce.

After thinking it over, Du Busi decided not to continue the conversation and would wait until he reached level 99 before spreading the news.

Mu En was exhausted. He had agreed to the plan, because his disciple said he didn't want to sacrifice the teachers and students of Shrek Academy to venture into a dangerous and unknown place. After thinking for a while, Mu En still agreed, because in his eyes, Shrek Academy was still the most important.

Who knew that Poison Undying wouldn't be like his brother, becoming such a scoundrel, fearless and reckless, making Shrek Academy lose all face.

His own disciples were even more indecisive in the face of matters, and in this matter, they were not as decisive as Xuanzi. Mu En was increasingly worried about the future of Shrek Academy after he left.

All the major empires were watching the spectacle with amusement. Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen suddenly realized that Shrek Academy wasn't so mythical after all, since they even had to get intelligence for free.

Xu Jiujiu was also laughing inwardly. Her brother had long been dissatisfied with the Shrek Academy's inspection team wandering around the Star Luo Empire. She hadn't expected to encounter so many things in just two days.

Erming didn't say anything, just watched the farce quietly, secretly wanting to laugh.

That's just how humans are; no matter how high their status, there will always be all sorts of conflicts, and it's almost impossible for them to truly unite.

The people in front of me are among the top tier of people on the mainland, yet they still managed to cause such a mess. The world is just a giant makeshift operation.

"Let's discuss how to proceed with the next steps."

There was a barely perceptible sorrow in Moon's words.

"The Sun Moon Empire has produced two level-nine Soul Masters."

Jing Hongchen said with a smile.

"In addition, His Majesty also approved me to bring a few level-nine soul-guided cannon shells, just in case, just in case."

The people from other countries had strange expressions. To be honest, they had really thought about killing the people of the Sun Moon Empire in the Star Dou Great Forest, but since the other side had brought out level nine soul-guided cannons, they could only look at each other with regret.

"Two Title Douluos from the Star Luo Empire are going there."

Xu Jiujiu was also a little heartbroken. Losing one person would be hard to make up for, but it was safer for two people to support each other, so she had no choice but to go.

Dou Ling and Tian Hun stated that they could only send one Title Douluo, but they would provide full support afterward. They knew their own situation best; there were truly very few Title Douluos in the Empire.

"Old Xu and I will go to the Body Sect, two Title Douluos."

Poison Undying said nonchalantly that, as the sect leader, he still did not gamble, but left the Golden Body Douluo behind and took another Title Douluo with him.

"Shrek Academy is sending three Title Douluos, with Xuanzi leading the team, and Lin'er and Mei'er going as well."

Mu En finalized the Shrek Academy team roster, consisting of three Super Douluo, which could be considered as making up for the loss of information obtained for free.

The entire exploration team was finalized, consisting of eleven Title Douluos heading to the Star Dou Great Forest—a truly formidable lineup.

The last time so many Title Douluos formed a team was thousands of years ago during the Continental War, when Shrek Academy called upon all Title Douluos in the world to form a team to invade the Sun Moon Empire.

······

"Elder, all the major powers have arrived at Shrek Academy."

Zhang Peng came up behind Long Xiaoyao and respectfully reported.

Please read on and vote! There seems to be a PK2 round, and I really want to advance!
