Chapter 242 Selection of the Seven Major Sects
The establishment of the Holy Soul Empire marked the end of the Tiandou Empire. On the day of the coronation ceremony, there were restoration forces that had planned to attack the ceremony, but these people were discovered in advance, and Emperor Yuan took his men to deal with them.
So the ceremony went very smoothly.
However, those forces for restoring the nation are still not reconciled and they have been trying to contact Avalanche and others in the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom.
Three days after Di Yang's coronation ceremony, Xue Beng ascended the throne in the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom and announced to the world that the Tiandou Empire had not yet perished and that it still existed. After all, he had vowed at the ceremony to take back the territory of the Tiandou Empire and exterminate the Di family at the same time.
All of a sudden, three empires appeared on Douluo Continent, namely, Holy Soul, Star Luo, and Tiandou. The Spirit Hall has not yet established an empire, but they are already preparing for the selection of the new seven major sects in the near future. After the new seven major sects are born, the power of the Spirit Hall will undoubtedly reach a new level.
And now the Holy Soul Empire and the Spirit Hall have formed an alliance.
Di Hong’s sons are all in the Spirit Hall.
After Xue Beng proclaimed himself emperor, he began to contact those hidden forces for restoration of the nation. At the same time, he also constantly called on the subordinate kingdoms and principalities to launch attacks on the Holy Soul Empire. In short, he would never let them have an easy time.
However, several major subordinate kingdoms and principalities did not respond. They were not stupid. Attacking the Holy Soul Empire at this time would be seeking death. They hoped that Avalanche would stand up and fight the Holy Soul Empire head-on.
However, Avalanche at that time had no ability to go to war with the Holy Soul Empire. Its armaments were incomplete and its food supplies were insufficient. The Haagen-Dazs Kingdom was located in the northwest, close to the Far North. This place was not a grain-producing area. The annual grain output was only enough for domestic survival, and more had to be purchased from the neighboring Barak Kingdom and other places.
More and more people are coming to Avalanche for help, and they can no longer afford to support them.
The Haagen-Dazs Kingdom is mainly based on animal husbandry. Now there are suddenly hundreds of thousands of troops. How are they going to feed them?
Avalanche had no other choice but to issue an edict to ask the Barak Kingdom to provide food support, and at the same time purchase food and other necessary resources from the Star Luo Empire. He also sent people to contact the Star Luo Empire in the hope of forming an alliance with it.
Inside the palace.
Di Yang is planning to annex the principality and kingdom in the east. He is not considering Haagen-Dazs and Barak in the west for now, especially Barak. According to Di Hong's deployment, that place is reserved for the Spirit Hall. Let the Spirit Hall annex it, and then let them face the remnants of Tian Dou.
Their goal is to expand eastward and annex other territories, then go south to destroy the Xing Luo Empire, and then lead their troops to deal with the Spirit Hall.
"This time, General Wang Ming will lead the eastward expansion, with an army of 400,000 and 2,000 spirit masters."
Wang Ming was a little surprised when his name was called. It was not the first time for him to lead an army, but it was the first time for him to lead 400,000 troops. The generals around him looked at Wang Ming with envy and jealousy, while others did not care. Everyone knew that it was Di Yang who was training Wang Ming.
Wang Ming is only in his forties now, and he is also Shen Yi's favorite disciple. Di Yang has high hopes for him.
"Your Majesty, rest assured that I will fulfill my mission."
This is his chance. As long as he can destroy the two countries in the east, his military exploits will be recorded in history. It is not impossible for him to replace Golong in the future. His only shortcoming is that his talent for cultivation is not as good as Golong's. Now Golong is about to be awarded the Title of Douluo.
The breakthrough will only happen in the next two or three years.
In order to prevent accidents, Di Yang also plans to invite Di Qing to join the army. With a Titled Douluo around, everything will go much more smoothly. Now Di Qing and Di Yuan have arrived in Holy Soul City. As the emperor, Di Yuan is in seclusion in the palace, and Di Qing is naturally there too.
With two Titled Douluo stationed in the imperial palace, it would be basically impossible for someone to sneak in and assassinate them.
It naturally takes time to assemble a large army.
The size of an army of 400,000 made many people nervous, especially Xue Beng and his men. If the Holy Soul Empire attacked them at this time, they would be hard to resist. They couldn't let the soldiers go to the battlefield unarmed.
The Xing Luo Empire was not too nervous, as they were 100% sure that the Holy Soul Empire was not gathering its troops against them.
The Holy Spirit Empire assembled its army to prepare for the Eastern Expedition. Tang San and his men were busy taking tests on Seagod Island. Di Yuan was not idle either. He now accompanied Qian Renxue to take the Angel Test every day, and he also followed along. The first few items of the Angel Test were not very difficult. He only needed to assist Qian Renxue in completing six tests. Di Hong was now oblivious to what was happening in front of him, and only wanted to break through the 100th level.
Ge Long is also practicing hard now. His soul power level has reached level 89, and he wants to work hard to break through to the Titled Douluo.
The days passed by.
The selection meeting for the new seven major sects planned by the Spirit Hall was also held.
Many sects on the continent went to Wuhun City.
The most famous ones among them are the Elephant Armor Sect, Wind Sword Sect, Fire Leopard Sect, Rock Antelope Sect, Sparrow Bee Sect, Black Tiger Sect and Holy Dragon Sect. These seven sects are the popular sects for the selection of the new seven major sects this time. The sect masters are all Soul Douluo-level powerhouses. Among them, Tuoba Xi, the sect master of the Holy Dragon Sect, is not far from becoming a Titled Douluo.
All forces gathered in Wuhun City.
The status of the Elephant Armor Sect in Douluo Continent has now been greatly elevated. The Seven Treasures Glazed Sect of the top three sects was destroyed, the Blue Dot Tyrannosaurus Rex family was annihilated, and the Haotian Sect went into seclusion. Everyone felt that the Elephant Armor Sect would definitely be the new number one sect in the world.
However, there is still some water in this world's number one sect. No matter what, these sects do not have Titled Douluo.
Standing on the mountain where the Douluo Palace is located, Di Yuan can see the magnificent scenery of the city.
"Wow, so many sects have come."
"Is a position in one of the seven great sects worth fighting for?"
"Of course it's worth it." Qian Renxue walked to his side at this time, her tone light.
"The seven major sects represent more than just a location. They also represent many more resources. Look at the top three sects in the past. Which one of them didn't have a transcendent status in Douluo Continent and monopolized many resources."
Di Yuan chuckled.
"What's the use? In the end, they were still absorbed by the Spirit Hall. It seems that the Holy Dragon Sect was born out of the Spirit Hall."
Qian Renxue nodded slightly: "Yes."
There is no need to hide this, as it is common knowledge on the mainland.
After watching for a while, the two went back. They were not interested in the selection of the seven major sects at all. What they had to do now was to improve their strength and make themselves stronger.
When the Spirit Hall held the selection meeting for the seven major sects, the Tang Sect was not idle either. With the support of Avalanche, they selected elite soldiers from the army and prepared to establish a hidden weapon unit. At the same time, they began to unify the Tang Sect's uniforms.
As for the newly formed army, they also thought of a name, which was the Tang Family Army.
The situations of both Wuhun City and Haagen-Dazs Kingdom were transmitted back to Shenghun City by Di Ming's intelligence department, and are now placed on Di Yang's desk. He doesn't care about the movements of the two, as they will both suffer losses in the end anyway.
After the empire's 400,000 troops assembled, Wang Ming led them to set off.
This is the first battle since the founding of the empire, and it must be fought well.
