As one of the backers of the parliament’s Hawk Faction, the direction of public opinion was gradually leaning towards the Spirit Pagoda. On the other hand, the frontline military soldiers had no choice but to temporarily fall back as they truly could not wage the war. This was due to the judgment that if both sides were to engage in active attacks, the federal fleet too would be at a loss. They could possibly end up being completely defeated in the end without adequate supplies and due to endless incoming soldiers from the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Spirit Empire.

Despite the federation’s power, they could not withstand the loss of their three great fleets. So they could only temporarily fall back after careful consideration.

The Hawk Faction had already come up with even more radical suggestions such as mobilizing the federation’s last Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition to completely destroy the Star Luo Empire’s line of defense. However, even the internal supporters of Hawk Faction could not possibly consent to such a destructive war tactic. It naturally remained as a convenient discussion.

Tang Sect paid the price by being listed as a treasonous organization of the federation in order to resolve the war in the end.

In Sea God Lake.

The crystal clear lake water rippled as a gentle wind blew across the surface of the water and resulting in soft waves of ripples.

It was supposed to be an exceedingly pleasing scene. However, not even a blade of grass could grow in the areas surrounding this large pond of clear blue lake water.

This was a result of the negative implications brought by the Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition. According to the federation’s official measurement, the Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition left behind a large amount of remnant destruction energy with exceedingly powerful radiation. The area of three thousand meters surrounding the Sea God Lake would not be suitable for the growth of any life forms. On the other hand, the extent of the remnant radiation could very possibly last for a thousand years.

This was the most terrifying part of using Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition. If an ordinary person was to reside in this region, the person would fall sick very soon and it could even lead to a life-threatening condition. Soul masters had much stronger resistance but they would not be suited to live in this place for their health would similarly be affected.

A soul rover slowly drove on the bumpy wilderness by the lake. Five people were seated in the car. There were two males and three females that appeared to be over the age of twenty.

The thick glass and internal circulatory system of the car effectively shielded them from the destructive energy and radiation on the outside.

“It truly does look magnificent! Just that it appears a little scary. The fact that not a single sign of life can be seen here is horrifying.” In the car, a young maiden with her hair tied in a ponytail gasped in admiration.

“That’s right! This is the reason why we should wage war. We can’t tolerate the existence of a weapon of this extent. Otherwise, this is the result when one loses control,” the youth driving the car righteously said.

The youth sitting next to the driver emotionally heaved a sigh. “That’s truly a waste. Shrek Academy was originally located in this spot! It was the number one academy in the continent. When I was young, my biggest dream was to become a student of the Shrek Academy. It’s simply the pinnacle of dreams in a person’s lifetime to graduate from Shrek. It signified that the person will certainly thrive in life.”

There were three maidens sitting at the backseat. The baby-faced girl sitting by the girl with a ponytail pouted her lips. “It’s not as easy as you think it is. One would need to undergo strict examinations in order to be accepted in Shrek Academy. Moreover, there’s still an elimination mechanism for those that are accepted into the academy. The academy doesn’t impose any rules such as which subject to learn or one should work hard at something by force. However, one will be eliminated sooner or later if they don’t work hard. It is said to be the holy land of soul masters. Even if one doesn’t score especially well in the academy’s examination, if one can persist until graduation and leave the academy, then one will discover that the world outside is actually very relaxing.”

There was another young maiden with long hair draped across her back sitting on the other side of the baby-faced girl. She was also the prettiest among the three girls. She softly heaved a sigh and asked, “Ying Ying, your father graduated from the Shrek Academy, right?”

“That’s right! That’s his proudest achievement in life. Your brother too, right? Just that…” At this point, the baby-faced maiden named Ying Ying had a dimmed countenance.

The eyes of the beautiful maiden with long hair reddened. She was sobbing. Her brother was precisely one of the students learning in Shrek Academy. He was supposed to be the pride of the family, yet he had perished altogether with the entire Shrek Academy in that great catastrophe.

The purpose of their trip to the Sea God Lake was to visit the place so she could pay her respects. The rest of the four people were here to accompany her. They were her classmates.

“Yaping, don’t be sad. It has already been so long. Those murderers will certainly die an untimely death!” The ponytailed girl hastily attempted to console her.

“Thank you.” Yaping pursed her red lips. Her gaze laid upon the Sea God Lake on the outside all along. Only a short while ago, this place used to be the number one city of the continent. The number one academy in the continent was located here. She could still clearly remember how the entire family was so excited upon learning that her brother was accepted into Shrek Academy back then.

Her brother made great efforts to steadily work hard at elevating himself in the academy. His natural endowment was extraordinary and he had relied on his great efforts to even get a place in the inner court.

The act of getting a place in the inner court signified that the person could remain in Shrek Academy in the future. It was an honor for the entire family to have a person capable of achieving this in their family.

Yet who would have known that a great catastrophe would suddenly fall upon him during on that very day. The entire family was filled with disbelief upon learning the news of Shrek Academy being blasted by Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition. Her mother had even fainted from the shock.

Her father aged overnight while her mother spent every day with tears streaming down her face from missing her son. Who would have known that the number one academy that had existed on the continent for twenty thousand years would vanish into thin air just as such. There was also their close kin who perished together with the academy.

“Do all of you think that this is an act of the Spirit Pagoda?” The boy riding shotgun could not refrain himself from asking.

The boy on the driver’s seat turned his head to the side and took a glance at him. “Watch your words. Spirit Pagoda is influential like the sun at high noon right now. It’s okay for us to discuss conveniently to ourselves, but don’t you just say that aloud when you’re on the outside.

The youth riding shotgun scoffed. “In my opinion, this is certainly the act of Spirit Pagoda. How could the Holy Spirit Cult acquire Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition so easily without their help? I heard that Spirit Pagoda received the most gains as a result of the destruction of Tang Sect’s headquarters and the Shrek Academy. Out of the three great organizations on the continent, only Spirit Pagoda that remains now. It is the monopoly of a single clique. Had it not been the headquarters being destroyed, I don’t think that the parliament would have the audacity to announce Tang Sect as the treasonous organization of the federation.”

“Alright, alright. You say that but if Spirit Pagoda sends out a request to invite you to work for them, won’t you agree to it?” said the ponytailed girl in an unpleasant tone.

The boy riding shotgun was stunned for a moment and then answered with a slightly awkward expression. “Of course, of course not.” Even though he said as such, everyone could tell that his words were insincere. There was no other place as popular as Spirit Pagoda now, especially after they made the announcement that they would recruit and employ ordinary people as their staff. They were now renowned beyond comparison.

Yaping did not pay attention to the conversation between her friends all along. She seemed to see the silhouette of her brother as she looked at the Sea God Lake that was as clear as a mirror on the outside.

Her eyes were gradually pooling from her tears while the world outside the window in her vision blurred as well.

Yet it was at this very moment that she was suddenly stunned.

She watched as a man suddenly bored out from the surface of Sea God Lake that was not supposed to contain any signs of life. The man was dressed in a white robe. He had an exceedingly handsome appearance and long flowy hair. He was suspended on the surface of the lake just as such.

Yaping subconsciously raised her hand and wiped away the tears on her face. Could it be that her eyes were deceiving her because she missed her brother so much?

In the next moment, she wiped away her tears and fixed her gaze upon the scene once again to find that she could still see the silhouette there. Not only that, the silhouette was slowly floating into the air. His entire body seemed to be emitting a faint radiance. It felt as if he had already transformed into a core between heaven and earth.

What was that?

“Look!” The boy riding shotgun was the second person to notice this peculiar scene. He could not refrain himself from shouting aloud.

The boy in the driver’s seat hit the brake hard and stopped the rover car. The gaze of five people was simultaneously projected onto the surface of Sea God Lake. They stared in bewilderment at the unexpected silhouette.

Who was that person?

The boy riding shotgun procured the photography tool that he carried along with him and raised it to take photos in the direction of the lake.

The white-robed youth rising in the air raised his hand and pointed towards the sky.

A stream of piercing white light suddenly surged skyward in a manner that was akin to piercing through the heaven and earth in a split second.

It was even more shocking that the Sea God Lake underneath him was suddenly surging with waves to support his weight and sent him a hundred meters away into the sky.

The white-robed man grasped at thin air and suddenly conjured a white spear in his hand. A voice that was filled with endless overbearingness was heard soon after before spreading in all directions.

“From this day onwards, Shrek shall be rebuilt!”
