Chapter 38 Ambition
"Change the status quo?"

Di Yang sat up straight and motioned Di Hong to continue. He wanted to hear how to change the current situation.

After a little hesitation, Di Hong told Di Yang everything he had thought about in the past year. It was not enough to rely on his own strength to unify the continent, so he had to rely on the power of the kingdom.

Unification will inevitably involve war. The two empires will not hand over their territory to each other, and the Spirit Hall will not allow any force other than them to destroy the two empires.

If he really wants to unify the continent in the future, then his enemies will be the two empires plus the Spirit Hall. The difficulty will not be at the hell level, but at the nightmare plus hell level.

The Silves Kingdom has an army of 200,000, a Soul Master Corps with less than a thousand people in total, two Soul Douluos, two empires plus the Spirit Hall with more than two million troops, nearly 100,000 Soul Masters, and about 20 Titled Douluos.

Then he actually thought about unifying the continent.

Most people wouldn’t dare to have such a dream when sleeping during the day after drinking ten kilograms of alcohol.

But he was planning it.

After listening to Di Hong's thoughts, Di Yang raised his eyebrows, opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Di Hong in disbelief. It was obvious that he was shocked.

"Did I hear you correctly? You want to unify the entire continent with an army of 200,000 and less than a thousand spirit masters?"

"Fourth brother, if you haven't woken up yet, go back and have some rest."

"It's not even dark yet and you're already dreaming."

Di Hong curled his lips speechlessly, then sat next to Di Yang.

"Brother, I'm not dreaming. I'm sober and I know what I'm saying."

"Brother, are you willing to be inferior to the Tiandou Empire?"

"The threat posed by the Empire to us is not small. We, Silves, are sandwiched between Barak, the Empire, and the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom. In terms of military strength, we can't even beat Barak. You are the crown prince, and you should know that the Barak Kingdom has always been extremely arrogant."

“They just don’t think highly of us.”

“We are in the same camp today, but what about the future?”

"Although Prince Xueye has promised, it doesn't mean that Barak will look down on us."

Having said this, he leaned close to Di Yang's ear.

"Brother, you are the crown prince now, and you will be King Silvester in the future."

"But a real man lives in this world, how can he live under others for long?"

"Don't you want to sit on the emperor's throne?"

"There are the Xue family, the Qian family, and the Dai family in this world. Can't there be my Di family?"

"The continent is unified, and I am the only one who reigns supreme. As long as we can unify the continent, you will be the only emperor of the entire Douluo Continent."

Di Yang was silent. He lowered his head and Di Hong's words kept echoing in his mind. Doesn't he want to be the emperor?

The answer is of course he did. Not to mention him, even his father and ancestors, who didn't want to become an emperor and establish a new country? Who would really be willing to be under the empire and be its appendage and be ordered around by it?

Becoming the only emperor of Douluo Continent, the temptation is too great. I am supreme and the only one.

He was a little confused. He had his own ambitions, but he just didn't have the strength to match them.

"Fourth brother, can we really do this?"

Obviously he was tempted, but he was not stupid. It was impossible with the power of the Kingdom of Silvester, let alone the Empire. They couldn't even compete with Barak. It would be different if Di Hong became a Titled Douluo.

With a Titled Douluo in charge, the kingdom's strength will reach a very high level, and they will also be the first kingdom to have a Titled Douluo.

Power creates power.

Only with great power can one have great rights.

"How will you know if you don't try?"

“Even if we fail, at least we did it, we tried, and we tried our best.”

"It is better to die gloriously than to die in obscurity." Di Yang stood up and walked out of the tent. Looking at the sky outside, he felt very conflicted, dying gloriously or dying in obscurity.

It was a long time before he returned to the big tent.

"You're right. Even death must be spectacular."

"But if we succeed, then we'll get the whole continent."

"Although there is little hope."

"Brother, do you support me?" Di Hong asked. Unifying the continent was just his wishful thinking. If his family didn't support him, then he wouldn't do it. After all, it wasn't something that had to be done, and he wasn't that great.

If they can unify the continent, it will certainly be good for their Di family, but if they cannot unify, it will not do them much harm either.

They are nobles and royal family. As long as he practices hard, he will be able to protect his family even if the Spirit Hall launches a war of unification in the future, but the kingdom will definitely be in trouble.

Even if they defeated the Spirit Hall at that time, they would not be as comfortable as they are now.

"It's just one life. Big brother supports you."

"But my eldest brother's support alone is not enough. Father's support is also important."

"After all, he is King Silvester."

Di Hong nodded. To be honest, he was a little glad that he was the prince of the Tiandou Empire. If it was the Xingluo Empire, he would not even think about such a thing because the national conditions of the two countries were different.

The Xing Luo Empire's royal family has great power, so great that even the Spirit Hall has difficulty restraining it. However, the Tian Dou Empire is different. The power within the Tian Dou royal family is relatively dispersed, and coupled with the checks and balances of the Spirit Hall, it is difficult for them to unite unless there is a huge crisis.

Di Hong saw it through this war.

Even when they were at war with the Xing Luo Empire, the two princes were still fighting each other.

Moreover, the power of the Spirit Hall in Tiandou is greater than that in Xingluo. In the future, the Spirit Hall will take action against the Tiandou Empire. This is a good opportunity for him.

Two dogs fight, play off.

He wants to be the fisherman.

However, to be a fisherman you must have the strength. If you have the strength, you are called a fisherman, and if you don’t have the strength, you are called a shrimp.

Returning to his tent, Di Hong took out a soul bone that was glowing red from his soul guide.

This is a right leg bone, and it looks to be about 40,000 years old.

"A Soul Saint actually has a 40,000-year-old soul bone. He's really lucky."

He now has two soul bones in his body, one left leg bone and one left arm bone, both 60,000 years old, and now he has an additional right leg bone.

"My luck seems to be pretty good."

In just seven years, he had obtained three soul bones. If he continued like this, he would have a good chance of collecting all six soul bones. It was a pity that he had no external soul bones, but that didn't matter anymore.

This is also a soul bone with fire attribute, which is just right for him to absorb.

Although it’s only forty thousand years, it’s already pretty good.

So he sat cross-legged and began to absorb the soul bones.

In today's battle, nearly 20,000 of the 50,000 soldiers of the Silves Kingdom were killed, and more than 300 of the Scale Armor Army were also killed. As the elite of the Star Luo Empire, the Tiger Guards are extremely powerful.

If Silvestre is in this situation, there is no need to say more about the other armies.

More than 20,000 soldiers from the main army of the Tiandou Empire were killed, and the combined casualties from the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom and the Barak Kingdom were nearly 50,000. In total, nearly 100,000 soldiers were killed that day, not counting the injured.

Hundreds of soul masters were also killed or wounded.

The Xingluo Empire was not in a good situation either, with a Soul Saint killed in the battle. The casualties were no less than those of the Tiandou Empire.
