Chapter 150: Huo Yuhao: “yes! Well Done! Just Like That!”
Regarding which divine position Xia Die will ultimately inherit in the future, Huo Yuhao was unclear, but whether it was the Life Divine Seat or the Lord of the Underworld, Huo Yuhao would support her.
At least she called him father once, and in a sense, she could be considered his daughter.
He couldn’t possibly learn from the Tang God King and split Xia Die in two just for these two divine positions, could he?
Huo Yuhao believed that although his actions couldn’t be called those of a good person, he absolutely wasn’t some newborn idiot; he couldn’t do something like that.
For these creations of his own, Huo Yuhao would do his utmost to ensure their life safety; their specific future achievements would depend on themselves.
Under the slight sunlight piercing through the dense canopy of the Golden Ancient Tree, spatial vortices appeared around Huo Yuhao’s body.
The distortion of space gave shape to the light rays, forming a special Tyndall effect that, together with the golden light of the Golden Ancient Tree, dyed the spatial vortex gold.
Until the spatial vortex slowly disappeared and the surrounding wrinkled space was smoothed out, the entire process did not alarm any Sea God Pavilion elders.
Although their strength was powerful, in this era where the spiritual power system was not perfected, their perception was still insufficient to break through the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm’s mental power shielding.
Throughout the entire process, only the remnant soul of the previous Sea God Pavilion Master knew that a mysterious masked person had come.
And he was about to be completely devoured by A Yin.
…………
Shrek Academy Dueling Arena.
This place was located at the northwest corner of Shrek Academy’s Martial Soul Department, near Shrek City.
It was one of the liveliest places in Shrek Academy; after all, these soul masters either cultivated or fought, and now there was also the Magic Net as an option.
The last time Huo Yuhao came here was when Jiang Nannan brought him; outsiders needed a core disciple to vouch for entry into Shrek Academy.
Huo Yuhao’s figure quietly appeared on the spectator seats of the Dueling Arena, where quite a few people had already gathered.
As long as it was a somewhat famous student from Shrek engaging in soul fighting, it would be broadcasted across the various dormitory areas.
Dai Huabin was a second-year core disciple, second place in the last New Student Assessment, a Soul Elder at a young age, considered a hot candidate for this year’s reserve team members, and naturally entitled to such treatment.
Moreover, when Shrek students heard that Dai Huabin’s opponent was a newly enrolled freshman, they all got excited.
Large numbers of students from various grades paid a Silver Soul Coin entry fee and cheerfully sat in the spectator seats, waiting for the contestants to appear.
Huo Yuhao casually found a high platform to stand on, scanned the surroundings, and unexpectedly saw Xia Die and others pushing a disabled old man to the upper level of the spectator seats.
Huo Yuhao glanced at the disabled old man, his mouth corner slightly rising.
The only old man who could sit in a wheelchair at Shrek Academy besides Mu En, who else could it be?
Huo Yuhao’s spiritual power could sense that vast light soul power from afar.
Based on the aura Huo Yuhao currently sensed, Mu En’s combat power was at least a hundred Manyi.
Even three Xuan Zi tied together might not be his opponent; if he weren’t disabled, he would be the strongest of the three limits of this era.
Unfortunately, he was firmly bound to the wheelchair, with not much lifespan left.
“Grandpa Mu, right here.”
“Can you see the soul fighting field?”
“If not, we can go a bit higher up.”
Hearing Bai E’s words, Mu En chuckled and shook his head, saying:
“It’s fine.”
“I can see; this spot is pretty good.”
Bai E smiled and said:
“That’s good.”
Then Bai E, Feng Jin, and the others surrounded Mu En in the center to prevent others from squeezing toward this old man in the wheelchair.
Seeing these thoughtful details from the few people, Mu En’s body, eroded by the Dragon Pill’s ferocity, felt warm.
“Haha! Birds of a feather flock together.”
“What a profound truth; they are all good children!”
“Whether in talent or character, these children are top-notch.”
“Right, they are in Freshman Class One, aren’t they?”
“I remember their teacher is Wang Yan, who is quite skilled in theory and teaching.”
“This arrangement is pretty good.”
Mu En looked at these children, his gaze becoming even kinder; he was thinking that if their homeroom teacher wasn’t capable, he would use a bit of his small authority to replace them with someone else.
These children couldn’t be ruined by trash teachers; he was counting on this batch of freshmen to support Shrek’s future.
“Bei Bei! Come over here!”
“Great view here!”
A clear female voice drew Mu En’s attention; he slightly turned his body toward the Dueling Arena entrance.
He saw a handsome boy with deep blue short hair looking indulgently at the pretty and lively girl beside him.
The newcomers were Mu En’s great-grandson Bei Bei and his girlfriend, the current Tang Sect Sect Leader Tang Ya.
Bei Bei was currently looking helplessly at the shouting Tang Ya when he suddenly felt a silent, inexplicable gaze on him.
He felt a bit doubtful, turned his head to follow the gaze, and then his body suddenly stiffened.
“Bei Bei, let me tell you! This time, bet all the Gold Soul Coins on that freshman called Mademos!”
“I have insider info on the Magic Net! I hear this freshman called Mademos is terrifyingly strong!”
“Bei Bei?”
Seeing Bei Bei not responding, Tang Ya pulled his hand and softly asked.
Only then did Bei Bei react, giving Mu En a slightly apologetic glance before continuing to coax Tang Ya.
“Sorry, I just saw a relative.”
“Let’s go sit over there.”
Tang Ya looked around doubtfully and said:
“Then do you want to go check first? After all, it’s a relative.”
Bei Bei waved his hand and said:
“It’s fine; after the match ends, we’ll go together.”
As a Limit Douluo, Mu En’s spiritual power was extremely powerful, and he clearly heard Bei Bei and Tang Ya’s conversation.
It nearly made him so angry he couldn’t catch his breath.
“This brat!”
“Seeing his Profound Ancestor and not even coming to greet him!”
“Not as polite as Tang Ya beside him!”
“Truly forgot his roots after falling in love!”
“Outrageous!”
“Sigh! If you can’t make the reserve team this time, see how I deal with you!”
Originally, with Bei Bei’s talent and strength, entering this year’s Shrek reserve team was no problem, and Mu En had no doubts about it.
Now, it was uncertain; Mu En glanced at the few children around, and Bai E, sensing it, politely nodded to him.
Mu En smiled in response.
“Bei Bei, if you don’t cultivate properly this time, you might really not make the reserve team.”
Mu En resolved that upon returning, he would have Xuan Zi not give Bei Bei any favors during the selection tournament, relying purely on strength.
Soon, Mademos and Dai Huabin walked onto the Fighting Platform from opposite sides.
Dangerous light flickered in Mademos’s golden eyes; without even releasing his martial soul, an extremely terrifying aura began emanating from his body.
Dai Huabin casually stood on the Fighting Platform; his goal this time was simply to vent the anger of being bullied by Zhou Yi every day.
A cruel expression faintly appeared on his face.
Immediately after, a referee teacher walked to the center of the field.
Glancing at both sides, he said in a deep voice:
“Freshman Class One freshman Mademos versus second-year Dai Huabin.”
“If Dai Huabin loses the match, he will pay an additional ten Gold Soul Coins.”
“Are you both ready?”
Mademos crossed his arms and said coldly:
“Ready.”
Dai Huabin’s mouth corner hooked into a smile.
“Good.”
The referee turned and said:
“Match begins!”
The originally noisy Dueling Arena instantly fell silent; the surrounding audience held their breath, watching the two on the field intently.
Staying quiet was the basic etiquette for soul masters at the start of a Soul Fighting Competition; violators would be kicked out by other soul masters.
After the match began, Mademos stood motionless, golden-red light blooming from his golden eyes as a majestic lion king, as if forged from gold, stood behind Mademos.
The lion king glared ferociously; the majestic aura of a top-tier martial soul swept the entire Fighting Arena, leaving soul masters with weaker martial souls somewhat unable to move.
Seeing Mademos’s martial soul, light shone in Mu En’s eyes.
“Quality higher than the Bright Holy Dragon.”
“Top-tier martial soul!”
Then, the Golden Lion King transformed into golden-red armor on Mademos’s body, the Golden Lion Head on his left shoulder glaring ferociously, scarlet flames as tangible as reality swirling around his body.
The power reaching ultimate power oppressed the surrounding air, actually halting its flow.
One yellow and one purple soul ring appeared around Mademos’s body.
On the surrounding spectator seats, many began whispering, discussing softly:
“Second ring is thousand years? Another monster.”
“The last one with a purple second ring was second-year Wang Dong, right? That handsome guy who was third in the previous New Student Assessment.”
Tang Ya gently covered her mouth, pulling Bei Bei beside her and saying:
“Look, look!”
“See, my insider info was right!”
“What a terrifying martial soul, and those soul rings beyond the optimal configuration.”
Unexpectedly, Bei Bei beside her didn’t promptly answer his girlfriend’s question; his gaze solemnly fixed on Mademos on the field.
Bei Bei could clearly sense the power contained around Mademos.
He murmured to himself:
“What terrifying power.”
“No wonder Profound Ancestor came too.”
“That second-year junior called Dai Huabin is in for it this time.”
Meanwhile, Dai Huabin standing opposite Mademos bore almost all of Mademos’s aura.
Sweat dripped slightly from his chin, his strange dual pupils suddenly contracting; his White Tiger Martial Soul was actually trembling!
One must know, the White Tiger Martial Soul was a genuine top-tier martial soul!
Feeling the opponent’s aura, Dai Huabin realized he had kicked an iron plate this time.
“What a joke!”
“The White Tiger Martial Soul is trembling! The tiger is the king of beasts!”
Dai Huabin shouted through gritted teeth, ferocity in his eyes.
In his view, although Mademos’s aura was strong, he was after all a two-ring Great Soul Master; as a high-level Soul Elder, defeating him shouldn’t be difficult.
He vowed to brutally beat down that freshman called Mademos and wash away the shame of the White Tiger’s trembling.
Dai Huabin roared loudly, three soul rings appearing around his body, his full head of golden hair turning black and white, mostly white.
A “king” character mark appeared on his forehead.
His entire body crackled with bone sounds, muscles suddenly bulging and straining his clothes, signifying his immense strength.
His hands enlarged to twice their original size, eight inches long; sharp claws like daggers protruded from his palms, emanating chilling light.
Mademos coldly watched him, remaining unmoved.
He sensed the opponent had suddenly become enraged for some reason; rage in battle was a great taboo.
Thus, Mademos chose to stay still; the opponent would charge over in rage, exposing many flaws.
Sure enough, Dai Huabin let out a tiger roar, charging at Mademos like a killing machine.
However, he wasn’t foolish enough to clash with Mademos in close combat; as he approached, he activated his second soul ring.
A mass of intense white light gathered in Dai Huabin’s mouth, emanating dangerous energy fluctuations; the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave was a fixed skill of the White Tiger Martial Soul.
After a brief charge, a sharp white light wave tore through the air straight toward Mademos’s head.
Seeing the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave, disappointment flickered in Mademos’s golden eyes.
Because this soul skill’s power wasn’t even as strong as one of Xiao Hongchen’s soul tool shells.
At least Xiao Hongchen’s soul tool shells, if fired together, Mademos wouldn’t dare to take head-on.
“Hmph, as expected, not as good as that idiot Xiao Hongchen.”
Realizing the opponent’s strength was mediocre, Mademos had no intention of continuing to waste time with this clown called Dai Huabin.
First soul skill “Blood for Blood” and second soul skill “Blood Feud” activated simultaneously; Mademos planned to crush directly.
The scarlet flames fully transformed into tangible high-temperature crimson crystals.
Mademos clenched his fist and smashed the ground; a large amount of soil mixed with crystals condensed into a ferocious crystal wall ahead.
Dai Huabin’s fully charged White Tiger Blazing Light Wave only left a scratch on the crystal wall, far from breaking the defense.
While Xiao Hongchen could casually breach this crystal defense.
Immediately after, Mademos leaned forward, his powerful legs slightly bending, golden-red soul power swirling around, accompanied by the surrounding crimson crystals, his entire body emanating an extremely terrifying aura.
The surrounding audience all held their breath, focusing intently on Mademos; the entire view was almost completely filled by the golden-red aura flames on his body.
On the other side of the crystal wall, Dai Huabin felt that overwhelmingly overflowing power, sweat streaming down his face; without hesitation, his third soul ring glowed with noble purple light.
“Third soul skill—White Tiger Vajra Transformation!”
Immediately, his first soul skill White Tiger Barrier also activated.
Dai Huabin’s body continued to expand, muscles bulging again, the tiger palm blades turning bright silver, his entire body shrouded in golden light, eyes turning blood-red.
Just as Dai Huabin’s third soul skill activated, Mademos’s legs suddenly exerted force, leaving spiderweb-like cracks in the ground behind.
Shrek Academy’s Dueling Arena field materials were indeed better than Xilu City’s; no denying that.
Mademos transformed into a golden-red lion head, brutally shattering the crystal wall, his spiritual power locking onto Dai Huabin, then charging straight ahead.
Feeling the state boost from his third soul skill, Dai Huabin spread his arms, actually planning to take the hit head-on.
“Two enhancement soul skills! You think you can one-shot me?!”
Seeing Dai Huabin not dodging, Mademos’s gaze sharpened.
“Idiot!”
This strike of his, even Xiao Hongchen in defensive state would run for it upon seeing it, because if hit solidly, even a high-level Soul Sect like him would be done for.
At the moment Mademos was about to collide with Dai Huabin, he directly extinguished the surrounding golden-red aura flames, the lion head dispersing to whip up gales around.
The gale mixed with golden-red soul power directly sent the fully prepared Dai Huabin flying!
Seizing the moment the opponent was dazed in mid-air.
Mademos’s large hand suddenly grabbed Dai Huabin’s head, smashing it viciously toward the ground!
Dai Huabin’s face intimately met the earth, accompanied by gravel and blood; his eyes instantly lost focus.
Clearly, this smash had stunned him directly.
It wasn’t over; golden-red soul power swirled around Mademos again, firmly pressing Dai Huabin’s head to the ground, then spinning around the field.
Dai Huabin was like a dead dog, his body casually manipulated by Mademos.
His originally handsome face was now a mess of flesh and blood, hard to imagine he was once human.
All spectators were dumbfounded, watching Mademos brutally ravage Dai Huabin, watching him kiss Mother Earth hard.
Many female soul masters covered their eyes, unable to bear watching Dai Huabin’s miserable state on the field.
Of course, more people recorded this scene with the Magic Net; it would soon spread throughout Shrek Academy.
“Yes! Just like that!”
“Well done!”
“I’m practically in love with you!”
“Ravage him hard! Mademos!”
He didn’t care about exposure, stood up excitedly, and said to the person next to him who seemed like a Shrek teacher:
“That’s my child!”
“Friend, I’m so proud of him!”
“He is my glory!”
“I really love him so much right now!”
I’m exhausted; I didn’t sleep at all yesterday, half-asleep coding these words today. I need to rest properly for a bit.
