"Your public image has reversed again!"

Two years have passed since Qian Renxue returned to Douluo Continent. Nan Feng continues his debauched life on Seagod Island, and no one bothers him anymore.

"What's wrong?"

On the shore, Nan Feng yawned, sat up, and looked at Ning Rongrong and the others who had just returned from the sea.

"Not long after Qian Renxue returned, she inherited the Angel Godhood and led the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters to suppress numerous rebellions. Then, she..."

"They've created an angel god's test, modeled after the Holy Pillar test on Poseidon Island?" Nan Feng said.

"Mm." Ning Rongrong nodded.

"The spirit beast spirit rings are gone, but the divine spirit rings have appeared. The angel god's appeal has attracted a large number of high-level spirit masters who could not obtain spirit rings, and then things have returned to the previous state."

"However, Soul Masters are no longer an endangered species. All those who sang your praises before have turned against you."

"Your temples and statues have been torn down. They curse your meanness and madness, and praise the greatness of the angel god, saying that you did nothing but bring them a lot of trouble, and that it was the angel god who saved them."

"Anyway... the insults were really vulgar."

Nan Feng stretched and lay back down. "I told you guys long ago, this bullshit faith doesn't exist at all."

"You...aren't you angry?" Dugu Yan asked.

The social system that allows Soul Masters to exist is one that exploits 999 out of 1000 ordinary people to support the 1 out of 1000 Soul Masters.

Moreover, Soul Masters are basically of little use to human society; the vast majority of Soul Masters are engaged in cultivation, fighting, and creating chaos.

But this kind of being, which is of little use to human society, has been controlling the development of human society, so the humans of Douluo Continent have been almost stagnant for tens of thousands of years.

It is because of this ideology of the supremacy of Soul Masters that everyone wants to become a Soul Master and feels that it is only natural for Soul Masters to exploit them.

Nan Feng's actions did indeed bring unintentional conflict to the Douluo Continent, but he merely shattered that distorted social system.

He brought hope and a future to most people, but now those people are scorning him.

"What's there to be angry about?" Nan Feng said, resting his head on his pillow.

"I know what kind of people they are."

There's no such thing as faith; it's all just the worship of self-interest.

They believe in and support whoever feeds them; it's a biological instinct, nothing to laugh at.

Whoever is powerful and stands at the top, people will worship them; this is also a biological instinct.

It is precisely because of the admiration for greatness that people want to become great.

However, tall people have too much influence on those below them.

The strong trample on the weak, and those who become strong in the future will do the same.

If great people care for the weak, then those who become great in the future will also care for the weak.

Celebrity effect.

This is why public figures must set a good example; what kind of star you are determines what kind of fans you have.

While this statement isn't absolute, it certainly applies to the majority of people.

After the Angel God ascended to heaven, her descendants established a system of supreme Soul Masters in the Douluo Continent, placing themselves on an absolute high ground and treating the world like cattle and horses.

As the largest and strongest slave owners in the Douluo Continent, the Angel Family inspires more and more Soul Masters to aspire to become slave owners like them.

That's how the Spirit Hall was built.

It's just a community of shared interests.

Soul Masters united and, through their powerful force, righteously exploited non-Soul Masters, instilling in them the idea that this was perfectly justified.

This is true rule.

Rule by force alone is foolish; the most skillful rule is rule by thought.

There's no right or wrong, it just depends on which side you're on.

"Anything else?" Nan Feng asked.

What were the reactions of the two great empires?

"Of course we'll back down," Ning Rongrong said.

"Now only the Angel God can give Soul Masters Soul Rings, and Soul Masters are all beings with powerful individual combat strength, especially high-level Soul Masters and those large Soul Master families. Even if they don't think about themselves, they have to think about their descendants."

"Only by joining the Spirit Hall and worshipping the Angel God can their descendants continue to become Soul Masters and continue to possess powerful martial arts and a high status."

"Now, the vast majority of Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent are completely united."

If Nan Feng hadn't destroyed the soul beast's soul ring, Qian Renxue wouldn't have been able to gain so much support from soul masters so easily.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Now, every Soul Master supports the Angel God, and everyone who wants to become a Soul Master also supports the Angel God.

Soul Masters are a group of people in human society who possess wealth, power, and strength.

It's truly a reversal of extremes.

After the appearance of the Angel God, Soul Masters, who were once universally despised, once again became a highly respected profession.

"So what do you want to say?" Nan Feng asked.

"Don't tell me you just came here to complain about human nature."

"What I meant was, aren't you going to do anything about this?" Ning Rongrong asked.

"You finally managed to change the human social system of Douluo Continent, and now you've gone back to the past."

"Not interested." Nan Feng turned to the side, picked up the drink on the table, and started drinking.

"Now that you have seen the reversal of their praise yesterday and condemnation today, you should know what the true nature of these things is."

"What impact does it have, progress or regression?"

"In the end, some people will be oppressed, some will enjoy great glory, and some will inevitably bear heavy burdens."

These things cannot be changed.

"Because this isn't a flaw, it's their own choice."

Why are there oppressors? Because everyone wants to be an oppressor.

Why are there corrupt officials? Because everyone wants to be one.

"The oppressed despise those who oppress them, not because they think the behavior is wrong, but simply because they are oppressed and they resent why they are not the ones oppressing others."

"I used to think that if there was a tall person standing at a high place to guide us, everyone would gravitate towards that tall person, but look at what the result was."

"They are cursing, they are repeating the same mistakes, they are beyond redemption."

"Morality is fragile."

"So why bother with all that?"

"Just live your own lives. My lack of interference is the greatest mercy I can show them. Otherwise, I might as well just shoot Douluo Star to smithereens and take you to another world to continue your debauched daily lives."

"If everyone stops thinking about helping or oppressing others, society will become a better place."

"But people can only achieve the former, while aspiring to the latter." (End of Chapter)
