There was only one rank difference between 98 and 99, but at their level, even that one rank was like the difference between heaven and earth!
Blood One turned to look at Zhang Huanyun. ”If that day ever does come, I have a request.”
Zhang Huanyun asked, ”What is it?”
Blood One said with a serious expression, ”I want the legion to stand with Wulin when he revives Shrek Academy.”
Zhang Huanyun faltered slightly upon hearing this. ”You're saying, you want the legion to help him rebuild the academy?”
Cao Dezhi nodded in response. ”Shrek Academy stood for over 20,000 years and developed countless bright talents for the federation and left behind countless legacies; how can it just be destroyed like this? As the current leader of Shrek's Seven Monsters, Tang Wulin has a duty to revive the academy.”
Zhang Huanyun said in a grim voice, ”But you should know that no matter how independent the Blood G.o.d Legion is, it's still an ent.i.ty that belongs to the military, and it was founded by Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect, the Battle G.o.d Hall, and the Spirit PaG.o.da.”
Cao Dezhi nodded in response. ”I'm naturally aware of that, but let me ask you this; do you think we'll be able to eradicate the threat of the abyssal plane on our own?”
Zhang Huanyun asked, ”Are you saying that we'll be able to do that with Tang Wulin's inclusion?”
A faint smile appeared on Blood One's face. ”At the very least, it'll be possible. Hence, what I'm asking is, if he can really play a pivotal role in eradicating the threat of the abyssal plane, would the Blood G.o.d Legion be willing to stand with him?”
Zhang Huanyun's brows furrowed slightly. ”I get what you're saying, and in fact, at least half our legion would be willing to support your Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. However, we still have soldiers from the Spirit PaG.o.da and the Battle G.o.d Hall among us, and we can't just neglect to consider them.”
Cao Dezhi said, ”I'm not asking them to rebel against the federation; I only want them to stand with Tang Wulin and lend him their support. At the very least, they have to support him on a surface-level so Shrek Academy isn't discriminated against during its rebuild process. Is that too much to ask?”
Zhang Huanyun's expression changed slightly. ”No, that should be well within reason.”
Cao Dezhi continued in a calm voice, ”The Blood G.o.d Legion needs a purpose. The purpose of our existence is to protect the continent, yet the Holy Spirit Cult is currently at the height of its arrogance, causing so many tragic disasters on the continent. If we can eradicate the threat of the abyssal plane, don't you think they should become our new enemy?”
Zhang Huanyun immediately replied without any hesitation, ”Of course! If I could leave my post here, I would've joined the hunt against them long ago!.”
”Alright, then we have ourselves a deal.” Cao Dezhi smiled and didn't say anything further.
In the Blood G.o.d Legion, he was undoubtedly a Tang Sect representative, and the highest-ranking Shrek Academy representative in the legion was Blood Three. However, among all of the troops in the legion, Shrek Academy representatives took up the largest proportion, and to a certain extent, Zhang Huanyun could represent the soldiers from the Battle G.o.d Hall. In terms of influence, no one in the legion could compare with Zhang Huanyun.
The Blood G.o.d Legion was comprised of four major factions, but in reality, the legion was a unified unit, and everyone's past allegiances gradually became less important over time.
As Blood One, Cao Dezhi was well aware of the future tasks that Tang Wulin would have to face, which was why he was doing everything in his power to help lighten the load on his shoulders.
The Holy Spirit Cult was definitely going to be the greatest enemy Tang Wulin was going to face in the future, and they were going to stoop to any lows required to kill him. If the Blood G.o.d Legion could help him oppose this enemy, at the very least, it would buy him a lot of time to rebuild Shrek Academy.
”The match is about to begin,” Blood One suddenly said.
Everyone turned their attention to the large screen up ahead again. On the screen, the spectator stands were already completely filled. Everyone who owned Star Cabins and were willing to issue a large fee could watch the match ”in person”. The tickets were quite expensive, but they were still sold out very quickly. Compared to the other semifinal, this one was most likely going to be more exciting.
This was a matchup between Saber Demon and Golden Dragon King, and it was very hard to say who was going to win. One of them had the second-highest odds, while the other had the third-highest odds, so a thrilling match was definitely on the cards.
