Douluo Continent: What should I do if I don't have a cheat system?

Chapter 189 Returning to Heaven to Seize the Throne

Because Xue Ke is about to return to Tian Dou to take over the throne, Jerry has been selecting people for the Spirit Hall these past few days.

At least the cabinet should be fully staffed, otherwise, according to the old system, Xue Ke would never have time to cultivate.

Xueke told Ju Douluo that she was going back to China to take over the throne, and Ju Douluo immediately got angry and went to find Jerry.

"Disciple, even if you want Xue Ke to go back and inherit the throne, you should wait until Xue Ke's strength has improved. She is only a Soul Saint now. Why don't you wait another year? Wait until she cultivates to the level of Soul Douluo before going back?" Chrysanthemum Douluo asked.

"Master! Isn't this just in time? And when did a Soul Saint cease to be considered a strongman?" Jerry said.

"But Xueke is still young, and her personality hasn't matured yet. I think she still has a lot to learn. Should we wait a little longer?" Ju Douluo asked.

Master, what's wrong? When did things become like this? You would never have asked this before.

"Master, what's wrong with you? You seem different."

"Jerry's apprentice, Xue Ke, has been training with me every day. I know her personality very well. She's a complete naive and innocent girl with no guile at all. I'm really worried about letting her become the Empress!" Chrysanthemum Douluo explained.

"Master, you're overthinking it. Right now, we're just letting her take over the throne. As for management and such, she doesn't need to do it herself. Aren't I just choosing someone to assist her? Besides, after Xue Ke inherits the throne, the Spirit Hall can legitimately intervene in all sectors of the Heaven Dou Empire. There's absolutely no need for her to do anything."

Seeing that his master was still hesitant, Jerry added, "Master, that person is probably about to emerge from seclusion! So before she does, I need to arrange everything!"

Once that person emerges from seclusion, they will immediately launch the Soul Hunting Operation and establish the Martial Soul Empire, initiating a war against the two great empires.

So Jerry needs to act ahead of time. When that person comes out of seclusion and finds that Jerry has already done everything he wanted to do, leaving him with nothing to do, he'll probably be so angry that he'll go back into seclusion.

Chrysanthemum Douluo thought for a moment, on one side was his disciple, and on the other side was the person he used to serve.

"Forget it, I can't control it anymore, I'm not going to care," Chrysanthemum Douluo thought to himself, having already made up his mind.

After the personnel selection was completed, Jerry, along with Xue Ke, Xue Beng, Emperor Xue Ye, and the members of the Spirit Hall, traveled directly to the Spirit Hall branch of the Heaven Dou Empire via a teleportation array.

Originally, the avalanche was unwilling to come, but during the abdication, it had to be made to come.

After Jerry gave him a VIP card for the food street, Avalanche immediately agreed, saying he would do whatever Jerry asked him to do.

After exiting the teleportation array.

Both the avalanche and the snowy night were astonished.

"Jerry, I was wondering why we couldn't find out how you guys transported the supplies. Turns out it was this teleportation array! This thing can teleport that far!" Avalanche asked curiously.

"Yes, every branch of the Spirit Hall has a teleportation array!"

"If we had known there was a teleportation array, why would we have fought at all? Those noble sects are always stirring up trouble. If the Spirit Hall were to send a spy in and set up a teleportation array, just thinking about it is terrifying!" Xue Beng pretended to be scared.

"Actually, we should have thought of that earlier. When we checked into the floating courtyard, we should have realized that since the teleportation array was being used in personal homes, it must have reached a certain stage of development and no longer needed to be kept secret!" Xueye said.

"Father, you're just being wise after the event!"

"Avalanche, are you asking for a beating?"

"Father, you're just joking, don't take it seriously!"

Outside the Spirit Hall branch of the Heaven Dou Empire, a convoy had already been arranged. After the group came out, they got into the cars and headed towards the palace.

At this moment, all the ministers of the Heavenly Dou Empire were waiting in the court. They had received news that their emperor was returning today.

Prince Snowstar was also there, but he looked somewhat haggard.

Since Xue Beng left, he has been in charge of all government affairs. There are a lot of government affairs to deal with every day, and Prince Xue Xing has to deal with official business until late at night every day.

He had already planned it all out: once his troublesome nephew returned, he wouldn't care if he was the emperor or not, he'd give him a good beating first.

The motorcade arrived at the palace, where ministers were already waiting to greet them.

A luxury car appeared, the door opened, and Emperor Xueye got out first, followed by Xue Beng, and then Xue Ke and Jerry got out last.

Upon seeing Emperor Xueye, the courtiers all knelt down, saying, "Welcome back, Your Majesty!"

But it was a bit strange that they didn't see their emperor.

Prince Xuexing also ran over.

Seeing her older brother looking more than ten years younger than herself, Xuexing felt incredibly wronged.

"Big brother, where is that little brat Xue Beng? I'm going to settle the score with him for betraying his own uncle! Big brother, you have to stand up for me!" Prince Xue Xing said aggrievedly.

"Avalanche, isn't this it?" Emperor Xueye said, pointing to the chubby boy behind him.

Xuexing then took a good look at the chubby boy. Although Xue Beng had gotten fatter, it was still noticeable from his facial features.

"Avalanche!" Prince Xuexing shouted and immediately took action. Avalanche tried to escape, but overestimated its current speed. Prince Xuexing kicked Avalanche in the butt, sending it crashing to the ground and rolling twice.

"Uncle, let me explain, it's a misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding!" Avalanche quickly stood up and shouted.

Prince Xuexing wouldn't listen to his explanation and immediately gave him a good beating.

Emperor Xueye watched as his younger brother beat up his son, but he didn't stop him; he just stood there and watched the show.

"Father, help! Uncle has gone mad!" Xue Beng shouted.

The assembled officials now realized that this fat man was their emperor.

"No wonder His Majesty hasn't returned; he's enjoying himself in Wuhun City!"

"I remember when he left, he said he was going to ask the retired emperor for money. It's clear he got the money and is now enjoying his retirement!"

"Who says otherwise? We were eating porridge in Tiandou, while he was feasting in Wuhun City!"

"Well done, Prince Snow Star is so powerful. It makes me want to go up and beat him twice!"

"Don't be impulsive, they're family, and besides, Emperor Xueye is still here!"

"Why do I feel like Emperor Xueye is getting younger and younger?"

"Life's good, isn't it? Seeing Emperor Xueye's appearance makes me want to go to Wuhun City too!"

"Shh, don't talk nonsense!"

……

Having observed him sufficiently, Emperor Xueye spoke up, "Xuexing, stop hitting him for now. He's thick-skinned and doesn't feel pain. I'll get you a whip later. Let's get down to business!"

"Okay, big brother! I'll tell you later what kind of despicable thing this little brat did!"

He then announced to everyone that the reason for returning from the avalanche was to prepare to abdicate the throne to Xue Ke.

At first, the ministers all expressed their disagreement.

However, Xue Beng jumped out and debated with the assembled ministers, leaving them speechless and ultimately no one dared to disagree.

Jerry watched from the sidelines, increasingly impressed by Avalanche's eloquence, imposing presence, and quick reflexes. It would be a waste if he didn't become a diplomat.

The cabinet was then announced, and three days later, on an auspicious day, Xueke's coronation ceremony was held.

In the past three days, significant changes have taken place in Heaven Dou City, with one Spirit Hall shop after another opening up throughout the city.

Everything proceeded in an orderly manner. After Xue Ke ascended the throne, she directly produced various codes of the Spirit Hall, and from then on, the entire empire's system was implemented in accordance with these codes.

Jerry arranged for over 20,000 people from all walks of life, including officials, to attend this event.

Many people are unwilling to come to Tiandou City because they feel that Tiandou City is too backward.

However, it was only after Jerry said that the teleportation array would be opened, and that the salary would be doubled for the first three years in the Heaven Dou Empire, and that the Spirit Hall branch in Heaven Dou City would also open all its services, that a group of people were attracted.

On her first day in power, Xue Ke promulgated a new legal code. Everyone in the country knew that this code was developed by the Spirit Hall, and that the regulations for the people were very good. Everyone thanked Empress Xue Ke.

On the second day after Xue Ke took power, she publicly announced the method of cultivating spiritual power and set up cultivation squares in every major city.

All the Soul Masters were overjoyed. Many of them had heard of the Spirit Hall's training tower and gravity field, and now that the Empire had them too, how could they not be happy?

On the third day after Xue Ke took office, she announced that all services of the Spirit Hall branch would be available.

Suddenly, all prices plummeted. The people behind those shops were unhappy, but overall, most people were happy.

Many people used to start saving money as prices soared, but now they don't have to anymore.

Moreover, the Spirit Hall branch also offers a Spirit Ring exchange service, which is much safer than hunting for Spirit Rings yourself.

On the fourth day after Xue Ke took power, she announced that the Life Soul Guide Shop would be opening in Tian Dou City, and everyone could purchase from it.

The entrance to the Soul Guide Shop was packed with people that day.

The various life-related soul tools on display inside completely refreshed their understanding.

On the fifth day after Xue Ke took office, she announced that the Soul Guide Car Company would be set up shop in Tian Dou City.

When they went to the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, they were driving a Soul Guidance Vehicle, which many people saw and wanted to own one. Now that they know there are shops selling them, they immediately took their money and prepared to buy one, afraid that if they were too late, they would all be snapped up.

……

On the tenth day after Xue Ke took power, she announced the opening of the teleportation array and declared that she and the Star Luo Empire would no longer invade each other, and withdrew the troops stationed on the border.

Many people didn't understand teleportation arrays, but they were overjoyed that the stationed troops had been withdrawn; their sons could finally return.

Ten policies in ten days directly changed the entire Tiandou City.

The people were buzzing with discussion, all praising Empress Xue Ke.

Xue Ke's current reputation among the people far surpasses that of the former Emperor Xue Ye.

Now, anyone who dares to say a bad word about Empress Xue Ke might get beaten up in the street.

Haotianzong

"Elder, we've got it. It's a method for cultivating mental power, but the name is a bit strange: 'Jerry's Visualization Method'."

"There's no problem with the name. Since Jerry developed it, it's normal to name it after himself. Notify the entire sect to begin cultivation," said the Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect.

"Elder, now that the Heaven Dou Empire has submitted to the Spirit Hall, what are we going to do?"

"It's alright. I've read the new regulations. As long as we don't violate them, they can't do anything to us. The Spirit Hall still has its pride. They won't attack us without a legitimate reason. Otherwise, do you think the Clear Sky Sect would still be around today?" said the Grand Elder of the Clear Sky Sect.

"However, there are many new things in Tiandou City recently, and many disciples of the sect have gone there to play. Will this affect the sect's cultivation?"

"New things are something young people like to try out. They'll get used to it after a while. Besides, the training plaza is all built now, so everyone can go there to train. Their cultivation won't be delayed. Our spies from Martial Soul City trained at the training ground before, and the effect was equivalent to ten days outside in one day!" The Grand Elder said, his eyes full of envy.

The new policy also impacts various martial spirit academies.

Because the new policies issued by the Heaven Dou Empire regarding education are based on those of the Spirit City.

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy has also changed its name to the Heaven Dou United Academy, and its area has expanded tenfold, now encompassing everything from kindergarten to advanced soul master academy.

Moreover, in the past few years, education was compulsory and open to all citizens of the empire, without class distinctions, so now it is very difficult for all the colleges to recruit students!

The first to be affected were some academies in Tiandou City, including Lanba Academy, where many students dropped out and transferred to Lianhe Academy.

Blue Tyrant Academy

"Flander, I entrusted the academy to your management, and you've turned it into the Shrek Academy of the past! There are almost more teachers than students!" Liu Erlong said angrily.

"Erlong, it's not my fault. Look at the new policies the empire has introduced, compulsory education, and the Tiandou United Academy even has training rooms. We can't compete with such good conditions!" Flander said.

"I don't care, I've handed the college over to you. Even if you don't manage it well, you can still provide compulsory education!"

"Erlong, we're broke!"

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

"I don't know either!"

……

Tianshui Women's College

"Dean, we can't recruit anyone right now!"

"The Heavenly Dou United Academy is really rich and powerful!"

"Yes, Dean, we need to think of a solution quickly!"

……

The same scene was happening in various colleges, but no one had come up with a solution.

For some academies, money is a minor issue, but a single training room can completely overwhelm the competition from other academies.

Heavenly Palace

Now it's just Jerry and Xueke.

He returned the day after the avalanche; he didn't want to stay in Tiandou City for even a day longer.

After catching up with his old friends, Emperor Xueye left, but he didn't leave alone; Xuexing followed him.

"Xue Ke, everything is basically arranged now. You don't need to go back to Wuhun City for a while. Just stay here for a few months. Your palace has also been renovated, so it won't delay your cultivation."

"The Heaven Dou Empire is different from Wuhun City. Wuhun City used to only have the Wuhun Hall Soul Master Academy, so education was easy to reform."

"There are hundreds of academies of all sizes in the Heaven Dou Empire. They'll probably all come looking for you. I'll leave this matter to you; consider it a test!"

"Just remember one thing: always try to think from the perspective of ordinary people and put yourself in their shoes."

"Don't worry about the Haotian Sect for now. As long as they don't break the law, let them develop as they please. Be careful with those nobles. They are numerous, and many of them are officials, so don't be misled by them. Listen to the cabinet's opinions on everything. They are all carefully selected by me, and their loyalty is beyond question."

Jerry was also preparing to leave. Before leaving, he needed to give Xueke some instructions, in case the young girl didn't do a good job.

"I understand, senior brother. Thank you, senior brother. I will definitely study hard to learn how to manage a country well," Xue Ke said firmly.

"Hmm!" Some things are useless to say now. Xueke will naturally grow after experiencing them.
