Douluo Starting with the Chaos Divine Examination

"Your Eminence, we, the four great auxiliary clans, have made our decision to pledge allegiance to the Tang Sect. Please rest assured, we swear upon our martial souls to devote our lives to the Tang Sect. If we break this oath, may we be struck down by heaven and earth."

"If we break this oath, may we be struck down by heaven and earth," the four clan leaders, Niu Gao, Yang Wudi, Titan, and Bai He, declared solemnly.

In the world of soul masters, an oath sworn on one's martial soul was sacred—an unbreakable vow. Their words proved the depth of their commitment to join the Tang Sect.

Yet, Mu Chen still hesitated.

The air grew thick with silence.

"Yuehua, didn't your uncle dote on you as a child?" Bai He, the Speed Clan's leader, asked, his eyes shifting toward Tang Yuehua.

"Uncle!" Tang Yuehua called, a hint of pleading in her tone.

"Yuehua," Bai He said softly, "I'm your blood uncle, and your mother was my own sister. You're the direct disciple of His Eminence; surely you can say a good word for us." Playing the family card, Bai He hoped to sway Mu Chen's decision.

Due to the tension between the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall, the auxiliary clans had struggled for years. Now, Mu Chen's strength and defiance against the strongest Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall made him an appealing leader. For these four clans, who had lived in hardship, finding a powerful benefactor was paramount.

"Master..." Tang Yuehua's voice held a trace of appeal.

"Well..." Mu Chen hesitated, sensing that he had drawn out the moment enough. After all, he had gained a substantial 1.3 million soul power points from the reactions around him. He added, "I have two conditions if you wish to join the Tang Sect."

"What conditions?" Bai He asked.

"First, your clans will not simply pledge loyalty to the Tang Sect; you will be fully integrated into it," Mu Chen replied.

"Integrated?" The four leaders frowned slightly.

"Yes. After joining, your clans will become the Tang Sect's four subsidiary halls. The Strength Clan, Speed Clan, Control Clan, and Defense Clan will become the Weapon Hall, Wind Hall, Mystical Hall, and Medicine Hall, respectively. Given your strengths, you will serve as the first hall masters. Do you accept this condition?" Mu Chen asked.

After a brief moment of consideration, Niu Gao, Yang Wudi, Titan, and Bai He each nodded in agreement.

"We accept," they replied.

"Second, the Tang Sect is a place for elites and prodigies. Once you join, only those who are Soul Elders or higher may serve as entry-level disciples. Soul Ancestors and Soul Kings may join as inner disciples, while Soul Emperors and Soul Sages can hold administrative positions. All disciples over six who do not meet these criteria must train or study at Shrek Academy to prove themselves worthy of joining. Family members of married disciples are exempt from this rule. Do you accept?"

Without hesitation, they all agreed, "We accept."

"Then welcome to the Tang Sect," Mu Chen said, smiling.

"Thank you, Sect Master!" The four leaders bowed deeply.

Immediately after, many other soul masters and sect representatives surged forward, eager to pledge their loyalty.

"Your Eminence, I, too, wish to join the Tang Sect!"

"And I as well!"

"My Cloud Leopard Sect is prepared to pledge allegiance."

"My Tiger Sect surpasses yours in strength, so we should join first!"

"Is that a challenge?"

"Bring it on!"

Seeing the auxiliary clans welcomed into the Tang Sect, others clamored for a chance to join, creating a commotion.

"Everyone!" Mu Chen's voice rang out. "Thank you for your enthusiasm. The Tang Sect has a selective admissions process. Those who pass will be welcomed, regardless of age, gender, wealth, or status. Younger prodigies under six may study at Shrek Academy until they reach the required level to join."

Hearing Mu Chen's words, the crowd simmered down, with hopefuls mentally preparing to prove themselves worthy of joining the prestigious new sect.

Mu Chen took a deep breath and spread his Chaos Wings, rising into the air. Addressing the crowd, he announced, "I, Mu Chen, as Sect Master, hereby declare the official founding of the Tang Sect. Thank you all for attending this momentous occasion."

A roar of applause erupted.

"Yuehua, you are my disciple and first in line to succeed me as Tang Sect Master. From here, the rest is in your hands," Mu Chen said, then took off toward the mountain summit without waiting for a response.

"Huh?" Tang Yuehua stood in shock.

Liu Erlong was equally taken aback.

Both women knew Mu Chen was likely the most irresponsible sect master in the history of the soul master world.
