Chapter 167 Tang Hao's Self-Destruction, His Reputation Ruined
The next few days.
News of the continuous attacks and destruction of more than a dozen Spirit Hall branches in the southwestern region of the Fasno Province of the Heaven Dou Empire by a black-robed Title Douluo spread like wildfire.
The entire Douluo Continent was in an uproar.
In the world of Soul Masters, all the major Soul Master factions are paying close attention to this matter. Others may not recognize the attacker's identity, but they know it all too well.
That enormous hammer was simply too conspicuous.
That's right, it's the Clear Sky Hammer, the inherited martial spirit of the Clear Sky Sect.
How dare a Title Douluo from the Clear Sky Sect openly attack the Spirit Hall?
Six years ago, the Clear Sky Sect had already been driven deep into the snowy mountains by the Spirit Hall, and had no choice but to announce the closure of its mountain gates and go into seclusion.
Now, they're even sending out Title Douluos to cause trouble?
They're really bold.
Aren't you afraid that the Spirit Hall will come knocking on your door again?
It wasn't just the major Soul Master factions that were paying attention to this attack; many civilians across the continent were also concerned.
Because that titled Douluo from the Clear Sky Sect, while destroying the Spirit Hall's branch hall, also vented his anger on innocent civilians, causing many innocent civilians to die tragically under the Clear Sky Hammer.
The common people were immediately outraged and full of complaints.
The black-robed Title Douluo's display of the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul made the Clear Sky Sect an instant target of public criticism, and its reputation suffered another blow.
Many Soul Master factions that had previously suffered oppression from the Clear Sky Sect seized the opportunity to speak out, accusing the Clear Sky Sect of being shameless and harming innocent people, and demanding that the Clear Sky Sect stop such dangerous behavior.
Public opinion was almost under control.
At this moment, the Spirit Hall finally issued a public announcement to the entire continent.
The announcement not only detailed the losses suffered by the Spirit Hall and the civilian casualties affected by the attack, but also listed all the sins of the Title Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect and attributed them all to the Clear Sky Sect.
They also viewed the attack as a provocation by the Clear Sky Sect against the Spirit Hall, ordering the Clear Sky Sect to immediately cease the attack, hand over the perpetrators, and provide an explanation and repentance to the Spirit Hall, as well as compensate for all losses.
Otherwise, the Spirit Hall will make the Clear Sky Sect pay the price it deserves.
The announcement issued by the Spirit Hall immediately put the Clear Sky Sect in a very difficult position, and public anger reached its peak.
The Clear Sky Sect was under immense pressure, facing not only surging public resentment but also the aggressive tactics of the Spirit Hall.
Tang Xiao, the sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect, who was originally overjoyed to learn that he loved his younger brother Tang Hao and wanted to bring Tang Hao back to the Clear Sky Sect, suddenly turned pale.
Under pressure from the elders of the Haotian Sect, led by the Second Elder, not only was the idea of welcoming Tang Hao back to the Haotian Sect thwarted and aborted, but the sect was also forced to compromise and reluctantly issue a statement to the entire continent:
"This attack by the Spirit Hall has nothing to do with the Clear Sky Sect."
"The Clear Sky Sect has always kept its promise, closing its mountain gates and remaining secluded from the world. It has never sent any Title Douluo down the mountain, let alone attacked the Spirit Hall."
"The attackers were someone else, not from the Clear Sky Sect. The Spirit Hall should not make baseless accusations and maliciously spread rumors to slander the Clear Sky Sect."
"The Haotian Sect is innocent!"
However, the Spirit Hall did not let the Clear Sky Sect off the hook, but continued to issue announcements:
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it in the first place."
"As everyone knows, the Clear Sky Sect's inherited martial soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, and the titled Douluo who attacked the Spirit Hall's branch hall wielded the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul."
The article also includes accounts from many people who witnessed the attack on the Spirit Hall branch.
Especially the part about martial spirits.
The description is exceptionally detailed, even depicting the unique patterns on the Haotian Hammer so vividly that they seem to come alive.
It seems the purpose is to confirm the sins of the Haotian Sect.
After this confrontation, the pressure on the Clear Sky Sect increased rather than decreased. Coupled with further pressure from the elders, Tang Xiao had no choice but to tearfully push Tang Hao forward to shield the Clear Sky Sect from disaster.
"The Haotian Sect reiterates that this attack has nothing to do with the Haotian Sect!"
"After verification, the culprit behind this attack on the Spirit Hall is Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo. Tang Hao was expelled from the Clear Sky Sect six years ago and has long since severed all ties with the sect."
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. The Spirit Hall should seek revenge on Tang Hao; there's no need to pin the blame on the Clear Sky Sect."
The Clear Sky Sect's decision to send Tang Hao to shield them from disaster once again caused an uproar in the Douluo Continent.
The public was initially surprised that the person who attacked the Spirit Hall was actually Tang Hao, the long-lost Haotian Douluo. They were then extremely disgusted by the Haotian Sect's act of betraying its own members to take the blame.
The reputation of the Haotian Sect was thus utterly ruined, leaving the place in complete disarray.
At this time, the Spirit Hall issued another announcement:
"As everyone knows, Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo, is the rightful successor of the Haotian Sect."
"You think you can just expel someone like that? You think you can just say they're not a member of the Haotian Sect and then they're no longer a member? Who are you trying to fool?"
"Tang Hao never said anything about leaving the Clear Sky Sect. Besides, Tang Hao has been missing on Douluo Continent for a long time. Who knows if your Clear Sky Sect is deliberately shifting the blame onto Tang Hao and making him take the fall for you?"
"Unless Tang Hao himself speaks out and admits that he did it."
the other side.
Southwest of the Tiandou Empire, in the southwestern border region of the Fasno Province.
Tang Hao, who was wreaking havoc on a branch of the Spirit Hall, learned of the news.
After learning that the Clear Sky Sect was already struggling to breathe under the relentless pressure from the Spirit Hall because of his retaliatory actions against the Spirit Hall.
Tang Hao's eyes immediately turned bloodshot, and he roared in fury:
"Damn the Spirit Hall! Damn it—, Spirit Hall, I will never forgive you! Aaaaaah—"
After ravaging the ruins of the Spirit Hall branch for quite some time, Tang Hao finally turned and left.
To avoid provoking the Spirit Hall to continue targeting the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Hao dared not make another move.
Soon after.
Tang Hao revealed himself in a major city and began arrogantly revealing his identity:
"I am Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo. I hereby declare that I left the Haotian Sect six years ago and am no longer a member of the Haotian Sect."
"It was I, Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo, who attacked the Spirit Hall branch this time. The Spirit Hall does not need to be so aggressive towards the Clear Sky Sect and implicate the innocent."
"I am the mighty Haotian Douluo, standing tall and upright, taking responsibility for my actions. If you have any problems, come at me!"
After the self-destruction ended.
Tang Hao's arrogant and domineering aura crumbled instantly, and he reverted to his disheveled and decadent state.
Holding a withered Blue Silver Grass in his hands, he returned to Notting City in a daze, hiding in the shadows to silently protect his son Tang San.
Tang Hao hid.
However, public opinion will not let him off the hook because of this.
Tang Hao's attack, which disregarded the lives of innocent civilians, and his self-destruction, finally made the people see his true colors.
Tang Hao's reputation was instantly ruined, plummeting from being the youngest Title Douluo in the Soul Master world to a culprit who disregarded human life, becoming a rat that everyone wanted to kill.
Similarly, the Spirit Hall did not let the Clear Sky Sect off easily just because of Tang Hao's self-destruction statement.
After all, someone has to bear the losses of the Spirit Hall.
Therefore, the Spirit Hall forced the Clear Sky Sect to bear all the losses caused by Tang Hao's attack on the Spirit Hall, including compensation for the civilians who were killed or injured.
Left with no other choice, Haotian Sect had to swallow this bitter pill and squeeze out its remaining sect wealth to cover the compensation.
Life in the sect, which was already difficult, became even more difficult.
