Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 361: Pre-War Public Opinion

Hearing Yan Shaozhe's report, Mu En slowly raised his eyelids, revealing his cloudy eyes.

Taking the newspaper, Mu En looked at the content.

The Heavenly Court was behaving very aggressively, declaring war on six parties in a strong manner, even setting the date, showing that there was no room for any relaxation.

Putting down the newspaper, Mu En's face was calm, as this was something expected. The Heavenly Court's advance into other continents was to recruit troops.

Now that they had plenty of soldiers and generals, it was naturally time for a counterattack.

"Have someone inform the Clear Sky School."

"Teacher, but the Clear Sky School clearly stated their position a year ago."

Yan Shaozhe pulled a long face, his words filled with indignation.

"This time is different. If the Heavenly Court is allowed to continue to develop, their closing the sect is a minor matter. More importantly, they will lose their greatest support."

"Greatest support?" Yan Shaozhe looked puzzled.

Mu En did not explain further, only saying four words, "A battle of faith."

Yan Shaozhe immediately reacted. They, Shrek, worshipped the Sea God, Tang San, the ancestor of the Clear Sky School.

With the Clear Sky School not participating, Shrek had always been the one spreading the faith of the Sea God.

If Shrek were destroyed, it would not be long before the Sea God would follow the old path of the Angel God, gradually being forgotten by the world.

The newspaper was first distributed by the Heavenly Court at a low price. It recorded headline news and had an interest section.

Some people had calculated that the Heavenly Court's newspaper was not profitable at all. The selling price was the cost of the paper, not even including labor costs. It was purely thankless.

However, not everyone was so short-sighted. The Shrek high-level officials saw the Heavenly Court's sinister intentions.

The people at the bottom had blocked information. What they could learn through the newspaper was only what the Heavenly Court wanted them to see.

Public opinion was one-sided, and the people's hearts were inclined. What was the next step? Developing believers?

Therefore, the high-level officials could not sit still and began to imitate one after another. Shrek Daily, Sky Soul Daily, Douling Daily, and a bunch of others popped up.

There was an effect, but no one could match the Heavenly Court's scale. The Heavenly Court's branches had spread throughout the major cities of the four countries of the continent, making it the only behemoth covering the continent.

The four countries were willing to unite, but they were wary of each other and could not achieve true sincere cooperation.

The Heavenly Court Daily was the medium for Huo Yuhao to control public opinion and collect the power of faith. Yan Shaozhe saw this clearly.

Therefore, the Clear Sky School would definitely not sit on the sidelines like before, unless they wanted their ancestor's faith to be cut off.

Xuanming Sect, Xu Buju held today's Heavenly Court Daily, his body and mind trembling, his face showing despair.

The Heavenly Court was growing too fast. What others needed several years, even decades or hundreds of years to achieve, the Heavenly Court had done in just one short year. This was too terrifying!

The leader, Huo Yuhao, was frightening, ruthless and not talkative, not giving people any room for negotiation.

Inside a luxurious room, Xu Sanshi was arching hard on a female disciple, the latter's clothes disheveled, her collar wide open.

The female disciple made a seductive sound, but a hint of contempt and impatience flashed in her eyes, cursing inwardly, 'You eunuch, what can you do besides getting me all wet with your saliva?'

… …

Star Luo Imperial Palace, Xu Jiawei sent away a special guest, Ning Zhiyuan, the Sect Master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Ning Zhiyuan came to cooperate with the Star Luo Empire, to make the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School the state religion of the Star Luo Empire.

Ning Zhiyuan behaved very humbly, bowing like a commoner, and praising Xu Jiawei as the Lord of Destiny, the Eternal Sage.

Xu Jiawei was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He knew this guy's purpose, which was nothing more than to drag the Star Luo Empire into the water to jointly resist the Heavenly Court.

But how could Xu Jiawei fall into his trap? The current Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School only had one Flame Phoenix Douluo left. With this kind of stuff as the state religion of the Star Luo Empire, you think too highly of yourself.

Furthermore, accepting the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School meant provoking the Heavenly Court. The Star Luo Empire had no hatred with the Heavenly Court, and Xu Jiawei didn't want to end up spending the second half of his life in the Heavenly Court's black prison like his old opponent.

Since the Six-Party Alliance War, Ning Zhiyuan had behaved strangely, often appearing in brothels. There were also many romantic anecdotes circulating among the people about him.

The number of women he had affairs with was as high as nearly a hundred, and it was said that there were even black beauties, a specialty of the Sun Moon Empire.

People thought that Ning Zhiyuan knew that he was not long for this world and began to give up on himself, let himself go, and have a final frenzy.

But Xu Jiawei felt that this guy was probably trying to leave some descendants. Perhaps, Ning Zhiyuan had already prepared for the destruction of the entire sect.

Just as the Heavenly Court was calling up troops, a guest with a special identity arrived.

Holy Hall, Huo Yuhao was reading the reports summarized below.

Now, the Heavenly Court had reached 70,000 registered soul masters in the Douluo Continent. Adding the Five Regions and the Holy Martial Continent, the total number had reached 150,000.

One hundred and fifty thousand soul masters could not be compared to one hundred and fifty thousand ordinary soldiers.

After screening by various departments and levels, all those with cultivation above Soul King were conscripted, with the number reaching more than 4,500 people.

Huo Yuhao was very satisfied. Although there were many hidden problems in the Heavenly Court due to the rapid pace, the effect was still very good.

Such a large scale, no one could match it since ancient times except for the Spirit Hall, but the Spirit Hall had accumulated its foundation over hundreds of years.

And how many years had he used? It had only been four years since the establishment of the Underworld Sect, and the Heavenly Court had only been established for three years.

Looking at these data, Huo Yuhao rarely felt a little proud. This was the world he had built!

At this moment, a member of the Guardian Hall entered the hall. This person first bowed to Huo Yuhao, who was sitting on the upper seat, and then said: "Reporting to the Divine Venerable, the White Tiger Duke of the Star Luo Empire requests an audience and is now outside the mountain gate."

Dai Hao? Huo Yuhao was slightly stunned. What was this guy doing here? Back then, when he made a big fuss in the White Tiger Duke's mansion, Dai Hao hid in the dark and didn't even dare to fart.

Later, Huo Yuhao became a god, focusing on cultivation and managing the development of the Heavenly Court, and threw this small character to the back of his mind.

"Did he say what he was here for?"

"The White Tiger Duke said that he could only explain after meeting the Divine Venerable."

"Is that so, then let him in."

The mountain-guarding disciple who received the release order led Dai Hao into the Heavenly Court.

Dai Hao was in a complicated mood. Now, the various departments of the Heavenly Court were being conscripted and were gathering at the headquarters. It could be said that there were strong people like clouds.

All kinds of people came and went, especially Dai Hao also saw some people with characteristics different from the Douluo Continent. Some people wore special and beautiful costumes, and some people were strong, with healthy wheat-colored skin exposed under their leather clothes.

The cultivation of the Heavenly Court members was also extremely exaggerated. Along the way, Dai Hao had not seen anyone below Soul Sect, and Soul Kings and Soul Emperors were everywhere.

In a word, Soul Kings were walking all over the ground, and Soul Sects were not as good as dogs.

This should be people from other continents, Dai Hao guessed. At this moment, his intestines were turning green with regret. If he had known this would happen, why did he do what he did in the first place?

If he had taken care of that mother and son a little earlier, then Huo Yuhao's attitude towards the Dai family would not be what it is now. This huge Heavenly Court would also be the foundation of the Dai family.
