Dai Mubai quickly informed Tang San of this matter.
Upon learning that the faith of the War God Hall had been seized by Su Ming, Tang San also fell silent.
He carefully questioned Dai Mubai.
"This faith all goes to him? Why? This War God Hall was clearly based on me."
Dai Mubai's eyes were somewhat bloodshot, his manner a bit agitated.
The War God – this divine seat wasn't bad. The authority it represented actually had a very high ceiling, but in the Douluo God Realm, this divine seat was only a Second-Class God.
Naturally, Dai Mubai aspired to advance his divine seat, at least to a First-Class God. Otherwise, among the vast number of Second-Class Gods, aside from his good relationship with Tang San, he had no particularly outstanding abilities.
As for the Martial Soul Fusion Skill brought from the lower plane, although it allowed him to briefly possess power rivaling a First-Class God, this had also not been revealed externally at Tang San's request.
Over these ten thousand years, Dai Mubai had truly felt the limitations of his innate talent.
His Spirit Power had transformed into Divine Power, and relying on his divine seat, he had rapidly caught up to the Second-Class God level, but that only placed him at an intermediate level. Advancing further was extremely difficult. Ma Hongjun, on the other hand, was close to reaching the First-Class God level in Divine Power.
With insufficient talent, Dai Mubai certainly knew where his opportunity for further progress lay.
The divine seat.
Even his ability to cultivate Divine Power to this level was forcibly raised by the divine seat itself.
Therefore, if his divine seat could be promoted to First-Class God, he, as the deity, could also benefit and break through.
Precisely because of this, he was so furious that his faith had been taken by Su Ming.
Tang San knew Dai Mubai was feeling frustrated and could only comfort him: "Don't worry, Dai Boss. The title of War God rests on your head. This War God Hall has borrowed the name of your War God title; it will eventually belong to you. The reason you can't collect the faith now is probably that the foundation of the faith hasn't been established yet. Su Ming is just taking advantage of a loophole."
"What do you mean?" Dai Mubai asked hastily.
He wasn't very professional in this area.
Tang San, on the other hand, had considerable experience in harvesting faith from lower planes and understanding how to obtain it.
"Simply put, the War God Hall currently doesn't enshrine the War God. Not the 'First War God' or 'Second War God' selected by the War God Hall itself, but enshrining you, the divine War God, just like the Sea God is enshrined."
Dai Mubai pondered in silence, trying to understand Tang San's meaning.
Then, he looked up, gazing blankly at Tang San.
"What should I do?"
He could understand, but he couldn't figure out a way to break this deadlock from this information.
Tang San said, "Manifest divine miracles, set things right. Let the Spirit Masters of the War God Hall know that the true War God is a deity, and that this deity can recognize the Spirit Masters of the War God Hall."
"And then?"
"Then, wait for them to sincerely guide you as the War God from the depths of their hearts."
Dai Mubai was puzzled. Was it that simple?
"The problem now is that the God Realm must not interfere in the wars of lower planes."
Tang San sighed.
This was something he hadn't anticipated.
How did Su Ming manage to seize the faith of the War God Hall?
It must be because of the 'First War God' title.
Especially since the rapid development of the War God Hall was closely related to Su Ming joining it.
Without his influence, it would have taken at least three months for the War God Hall to be established and develop to the point of encompassing all members of the Douluo Legion. But because Su Ming joined, within three to five days, the War God Hall became an official organization of the Douluo Legion, its influence on the legion rivaling that of the Battle Armor Association.
"Dai Boss, deities cannot interfere in lower plane wars, but conducting divine trials can still continue. This is the opening the Emotion God created, and Destruction's side has nothing to say about it. Divine trials can be conducted, so naturally, ordinary assessments can be as well. The emergence of the War God Hall is also your perfect excuse."
Dai Mubai hesitated.
Over these ten thousand years, he has accumulated a certain amount of resources. The greatest deity enshrined by Shrek Academy was the Sea God, Tang San. But the statues standing in the academy square weren't just of Tang San; they included Dai Mubai and the others as well.
So, he actually had a considerable source of faith.
Over ten thousand years, it was enough to conduct a dozen or so Black-Level Five Trials.
But did he really want to do this?
This was all of his accumulated savings.
While Dai Mubai hesitated, Tang San said decisively, "Dai Boss, you can't delay. Otherwise, once Su Ming'"s control over this organization reaches a certain level, and all the Spirit Masters develop faith in him, believing he is the founder of this organization, then you'll have no chance left."
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth fiercely.
Do it!
However, he first asked about one question.
"If I only conduct ordinary assessments, not divine trials, that essentially means supporting Douluo Star. What about the Crimson Domain side..."
"Heh, does that Crimson Mother really dare to self-destruct?" Tang San sneered. "Don't worry, it won't be a problem. At worst, we can allow her Crimson Domain to send reinforcements to the Abyss."
"Wouldn't that turn this into a protracted war?" Dai Mubai exclaimed.
Tang San explored at him, meaningful look in his eyes. "Is a protracted war bad for us?"
Dai Mubai was stunned, then suddenly understood.
Yes, if it was a protracted war, Su Ming wouldn't be able to conquer the Abyss, and he wouldn't accumulate enough foundation to become a God King. That would essentially delay Su Ming's cultivation.
Moreover, with a protracted war, the War God Hall could harvest faith even better.
Furthermore, during this process, once Tang San found an opportunity to eliminate Su Ming, without Su Ming, this war could even be maintained permanently.
Hiss~
Dai Mubai looked at Tang San with eyes full of admiration.
As expected of Xiao San, the soul of the Shrek Seven Monsters.
Douluo Star - Battlefield Plain.
"The fourth mountain peak has an owner now."
On the plain, this news spreads rapidly, diffusing into the battlefield inside the Abyssal Gate and also spreading to the forests and canyons outside the plain. One by one, various powers learned from this news.
The War God Hall was officially relocated from the foot of the fourth mountain peak to its summit. A towering hall was being rapidly constructed.
All the Spirit Masters marveled.
They all realized that in the future continent, the War God Hall would definitely have a place.
Although currently there was only one War God, Su Ming, the War God Hall had already gathered all the Spirit Masters present. They would also fight for the honor of the so-called 'War God' title.
It was also the rise of the War God Hall that made the participating Spirit Masters realize that seizing those six mountain peaks didn't necessarily have to be done by their original forces. They could also establish new ones.
Spirit Masters without much backing behind them become increasingly resourceful. Various organizations began to emerge and become established.
But unfortunately, there were too few organizations that could hit the mark and limit development potential.
Second Peak, occupied by the Spirit Beast clan.
Di Tian gazed into the distance at the Fourth Peak, his expression deep.
"Di Tian, are we still not going to act?" Zi Ji asked urgently.
The truth was, Su Ming had long ago arranged a mountain peak for the Spirit Beast clan. Yet nearly two months had passed since the war began, and the Spirit Beast clan had still not entered the fray.
Di Tian did not reply. He only turned to look back at the Spirit Beasts he had restrained near the Second Peak.
After a long time, he let out a faint sigh.
"Zi Ji, tell me, what would be the outcome if a ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast entered that battlefield?"
Zi Ji was speechless.
She could imagine the scene of low-intelligence Spirit Beast recklessly fighting Abyssal creatures head-on in the chaos of battle.
Her gaze became vacant.
If that were the case, what was the meaning of the Spirit Beast clan coming here?
