Chapter 351 - The Strategy of Keeping the People Fooled

  Meanwhile, Niu Tian and Titan both raised their domains, rendering a large area of ​​space in shades of blue and yellow. Under the suppression of the two domains, the red mist space where the Chaotic Demon Domain was located was forced to retreat, creating a stalemate between the three sides.

  Some people who had escaped the Demon-Severing Domain quickly regained their senses. Hearing Niu Tian's words, everyone was filled with shock and disbelief. Gods—how distant they were, yet everyone yearned for them.

  Gods were omnipotent, immortal, and possessed endless lifespans.

  However, now someone was saying that Huo Yuhao had become a god. How could people not be shocked?

  How old was Huo Yuhao? Not even fifteen years old, right? And he had already become a god? What a joke! Had he started cultivating from the womb?

  Bei Bei struggled to lift her head, looking at the young man standing on the void, as if gazing up at a towering, insurmountable mountain, a place of utmost awe.

  Before him, Bei Bei felt her own insignificance all too acutely.

  That terrifying aura suppressed countless living beings, making people not even have the courage to look him in the eye.

  Bei Bei felt a bitter taste in her mouth. She had thought she was about to catch up with him, but when they met again, they were worlds apart.

  Huo Yuhao had become a living god, while she was still just a Soul King, and she had even been proud of it.

  Zheng Tian City, located in the central part of the Heavenly Soul Empire, was named after the Zheng Tian Academy located there.

  At the south gate of Zheng Tian City, the guards seemed somewhat irritable, venting their dissatisfaction at some ragged civilians, spewing profanities.

  It wasn't that these civilians had offended them, but rather that they were venting their frustrations in this way.

  For some reason, most of the city's defense troops had been transferred to other duties yesterday, forcing them to work overtime.

  "Damn it, they make us work overtime but don't give us extra pay, it's really frustrating,"

  a burly soldier complained, while groping a woman entering the city.

  The woman didn't dare to provoke these thugs, so she could only swallow her anger and quickly leave the city gate with her head down.

  "Isn't that right? Chen and his gang will probably make a fortune this time, while we brothers are stuck here guarding the gate, looking miserable. Who can we complain to?"

  one of the men chimed in, his tone full of dissatisfaction.

  "Alright, enough talk. Being able to stay and guard the gate is our good fortune. You guys should be secretly happy." The one

  who spoke was a middle-aged man with a respectable appearance. He was also wearing armor, but his armor was more refined and attractive than the others, because he was the squad leader.

  The others weren't stupid; they sensed something unusual. One of them stepped forward and said with a grin, "Boss, did you get some news? Tell us, brothers."

  "Yeah, boss, tell us, brothers!" the others echoed.

  Seeing this, the squad leader didn't hide anything, and besides, the news would probably spread soon anyway.

  The captain gestured for the men to approach and said in a low voice, "I heard the imperial court is going to purge the Heavenly Court. It's not just our Zhengtian City; troops from other surrounding areas have also been mobilized for combat. Do you still want to skim some profits?"

  "The Heavenly Court! My God! The imperial court is actually going to take action against the Heavenly Court? Is this really okay?

  I heard the Heavenly Court has three Title Douluos and over a dozen Soul Douluos, and they have close ties with the Body Sect. Is this really alright?"

  a soldier exclaimed repeatedly, attracting the attention of passersby.

  The captain glared at him and scolded, "You think you're the only one with a head? Do you have a chamber pot on your neck?"   

  One soldier remarked, "We're really lucky. Thank goodness we weren't sent to fight, otherwise we might not even have made it back alive."

  Hearing this, the others nodded in agreement. No matter the era, it's always the common people like them who die the most in war; the benefits always go to the higher-ups.

  These days, military merit doesn't matter; life is the most important thing.

  Zhang Lexuan, who was about to enter the city, suddenly stopped. Although the soldiers were speaking in hushed tones, she heard every word.

  Zhang Lexuan hadn't returned to Shrek Academy. The events at Wanghun Village had greatly affected her.

  She hated those evil spirit masters and was also somewhat puzzled by the Shrek Academy's supervisory group's actions. Shrek Academy hadn't fulfilled its role of monitoring evildoers and saving lives; instead, it only cared about promoting the Sea God's so-called compassion.

  Having lived in Shrek Academy since childhood, burying herself in rigorous training, she had almost never left the academy. All her knowledge was instilled in her by her teachers, and Zhang Lexuan had never questioned it before.

  She believed Shrek Academy was righteous, maintaining peace on the continent, eliminating evil, and judging injustice.

  She witnessed the events in Wanghun Village firsthand and wanted to know if this was an isolated incident. She decided to travel more and see the real world for herself.

  However, she was disappointed. Shrek Academy failed to prevent each tragedy; the inspection team was always a step too late.

  Then came the lukewarm reassurance, the grand pronouncements of the Sea God's greatness and mercy, and the constant reminders to the victims to always believe in the Sea God.

  Even if Zhang Lexuan was naive, she knew something was wrong, very wrong.

  This was clearly a blatant attempt to fool the people, simply collecting faith power.

  As the successor of the Sea God Pavilion, she wasn't entirely ignorant.

  Zhang Lexuan was deeply disappointed in the inspection team. How could the continent remain peaceful if they only cared about deceiving the people and ignored the perpetrators?

  The people would forever live in misery, never knowing when disaster would strike.

  No wonder the evil spirit masters were becoming increasingly rampant; the academy never intended to eradicate them. On the contrary, the rampage of the evil spirit masters highlighted the value of the Shrek Inspection Team, allowing more people to know about Shrek's commitment to justice.

  Therefore, to maintain Shrek Academy's status as the savior, and for the boundless power of faith of the Sea God, evil spirit masters must be eradicated, but absolutely not eliminated.

  What does it matter if some lowly lives of commoners are sacrificed? They are nothing but a bunch of peasants, their lives worthless. The noble spirit masters of Shrek Academy wouldn't care, and the great Sea God wouldn't even give them a second thought.

  The truth is often cruel. When Zhang Lexuan understood all this, her entire worldview was overturned. Her once kind elders were actually capitalists who treated the masses like livestock.

  Even knowing this, Zhang Lexuan couldn't criticize anything, much less condemn her alma mater.

  Mu En had done her a great favor, and she had promised him she would protect Shrek Academy. Thus, Zhang Lexuan found herself powerless.

  The network of relationships involved was too complex; perhaps only when she became the head of the Sea God Pavilion could she change things.

  Just yesterday, Zhang Lexuan discovered that several villages had been attacked. Most of the evil spirit masters were killed by her, while a few managed to escape.

  The Shrek Academy Inspection Team, arriving late as usual, followed the same routine: appeasement, propaganda, and brainwashing.

   Let me explain: the protagonist of this story doesn't ascend to the highest level overnight like in other fanfictions after reaching the Limit Douluo stage. In fact, Tang San, despite holding two godhoods in the original novel, was quite limited in strength during the Three Gods War.

    The protagonist gradually rises from a god-like position. Why do some people always think that the protagonist should be invincible at all times? This story isn't purely a wish-fulfillment tale. And finally, behold my great resurrection technique! (>>)
