Douluo's ice devil Yuhao

Chapter 343 Xiao Hongchen: I feel like I'm scratching my back
Xu Tianzhen's head was still groggy, but fortunately, the necklace helped him resist most of the power of the soul shock, so his mental power was not greatly affected.

She swayed on the field in a very imageless manner, trying not to let herself fall, and asked a little deliriously after a long time: "You, how do you know that I am the innocent princess?"

"Is there a second person named Xu Tianzhen in Mingdu?" Huo Yuhao said helplessly.

Xu Tianzhen was still a little confused: "Are you from Mingdu? Have you heard of me?"

Huo Yuhao didn't bother to bother anymore: "Remember our bet? I won, and you can admit defeat on behalf of Mingdu Academy."

"I, I..." Xu Tianzhen regained his sobriety, and resolutely refused, "No."

Huo Yuhao frowned: "Princess Tianzhen, the bet you just made?"

Xu Tianzhen turned his head: "As a princess, I naturally won't break my word, but I'm also the captain of Mingdu Academy, how can I easily admit defeat on behalf of the academy like this? Unless..."

"Unless what?"

Xu Tianzhen said with a playful smile: "Unless you lend me your flying soul tool for fun, I will agree to you."

She still couldn't forget Huo Yuhao's flying board.

"Forget it then." Huo Yuhao shrugged and said calmly, "Next."

Seeing that acting coquettishly failed, Xu Tianzhen pouted, turned to the referee and yelled, "You...huh, referee, it's no match, Ming has already conceded."

After finishing speaking, she ignored anyone and walked back to the rest area with a sullen face.

The referee opened his mouth and stood there in a daze, still not recovering from the shock.

He is just a referee of a bad match, and his cultivation is only at the soul sage level. The brilliance of Xu Tianzhen's sun gaze just now is beyond his ability to stop.

With his strength, he couldn't stop Xu Tianzhen's full blow, so he could only notify the referee immediately.

In fact, before he could leave, Bupo Douluo Zheng Zhan, who was the chief referee, had already flown into the air, looking down at the field with a serious expression.

As the chief referee, he naturally had to control the casualties of the game. He knew Princess Tianzhen well, but he didn't expect Xu Tianzhen to show all his cards so easily in the first round of the round-robin match.

Zheng Zhan frowned, and even the metal competition platform began to melt under the high temperature. If he didn't make a move, Huo Yuhao might die under the high temperature.

But just when he was about to make a move, the orange light covering the field all disappeared.
Zheng Zhan's expression gradually eased, he looked at the field again, and shouted at the referee: "Why are you still in a daze? Announce the result of the game." After speaking, he also flew back to the rostrum.

The referee looked around for a while before announcing loudly: "In the first match of the fourth group, Longhumen wins."

Xu Tianzhen returned to the rest area sullenly, and Lu Jun and other team members greeted him.

"Captain, why did you just admit defeat?"

"Why don't you admit defeat? Which of you can beat him?" Xu Tian really didn't let go of his anger, and gave Lu Jun a blank look, "You?"

Lu Jun turned his head sensibly.

"Or you?" Xu Tianzhen looked at another member of the Mingdu team.

Seeing that no one spoke to him, Xu Tianzhen snorted and said to himself, "Huo Yuhao, right? After the competition is over, I'll tell Brother Huang to hand in that flying soul tool obediently."

Xu Tianzhen complained that he couldn't escape Huo Yuhao's mental detection, and when he heard this, he couldn't help being happy.

He was very curious, if he gave Xu Tianran the flying board as a gift, would he be dragged down by him for insulting the Holy Majesty?

Giving a skateboard to a cripple doesn't seem to have a second meaning other than provocation.

"I did it myself, how do you feel?" When Huo Yuhao returned to the rest area, the Ice Emperor stood up and asked.

"The harvest is very good, I got the information I want." Huo Yuhao said with satisfaction after taking off the image soul guide on his body.

It records the whole process of his battle with Xu Tianzhen.

Tianmeng came over and asked curiously, "Yuhao, why are you collecting this?"

"Of course it's only for study and research." Huo Yuhao threw the image soul guide into the air, drew an arc in the air, and landed in his hand again.

"It's time to go to the soul engineer competition. Let me think about what kind of soul tool can be used to reproduce these moves."

on the rostrum.

Xu Tianran looked at the defeated Mingdu team without saying a word.

Zhongli Wu said: "Your Highness, it seems that the Sun Wuhun is still slightly inferior to the Ultimate Ice."

Xu Tianran nodded lightly, his expression was not good-looking.

Zhongli Wu said again: "Actually, in my opinion, Princess Tian Zhen has a chance of winning. She appeared too early."

"Team Mingdu can definitely send a few players to wear down Huo Yuhao's soul power first. When his condition declines, it won't be too late for Princess Tian Zhen to play again."

"And it's really not a smart move to play all the hole cards as soon as you come out."

"Now it's just a round-robin match. Many teams even chose to give up strategically in order to hide their strength in the first match. With all due respect, Your Highness, Princess Tianzhen, as the captain, is a bit arrogant."

When Xu Tianzhen was mentioned, Xu Tianran's expression softened a little. He couldn't refute everything Zhongli Wu said, so he could only shake his head with a wry smile: "Unfortunately, my younger sister was born to be unruly and self-willed, playful and rebellious, and she is the only one in the direct line of the royal family." My princess has been spoiled by her father and our brothers since she was a child."

"Her cultivation talent is the best among us, and she has already broken through to the Soul Emperor at the age of less than 20. Since she was a child, how can we not give her what she likes? Now she has taken a fancy to Huo Yuhao How can I sit still with my flying soul tool?"

The voices on the competition stage were transmitted to the rostrum through the voice-transmitting soul guide, and they could clearly hear the bet between Xu Tianzhen and Huo Yuhao.

Orange said with a smile: "Your Highness, Princess Tianzhen is not a bad thing. The royal family has many rules since childhood, and it is a blessing to be able to live as freely and freely as Princess Tianzhen."

Xu Tianran nodded lightly, and said again: "Juzi, naive, she is about to graduate from Mingdu Academy and return to the palace. As the emperor's wife, you have to guide her a lot in the future, and you can't be as self-willed as before."

Juzi smiled lightly and agreed: "It's natural, the innocent princess is not young anymore, how can she be as willful as a child again."

"It's not too small..."

Xu Tianran read these words silently in his heart, and suddenly said: "Master Hongchen, I don't know if your grandchildren have love in the academy?"

As soon as he opened his mouth and took the initiative to mention the Hongchen brothers and sisters, Jing Hongchen was alerted immediately.

Jing Hongchen quickly practiced Tai Chi: "Your Highness, the grandchildren of the veteran are usually obsessed with cultivation in the academy, and they have no idea about this for now."

"However, the veteran will not insist on this. The younger generation has the ideas of the younger generation, and we the older generation will not interfere. Let them worry about it themselves, haha..."

Xu Tianran said: "The family style of the Hongchen family is quite free and open-minded."

The two monarchs and ministers were chatting, and neither of them made it clear, but everyone knew the meaning.

Jing Hongchen cursed secretly in his heart.

What Xu Tianran meant was clearly, since Xiao Hongchen and Xu Tianzhen are about the same age, can the Hongchen family walk with the royal family?
Of course, Jing Hongchen couldn't agree, so he just passed on.

The Hongchen family is a great nobleman of the Sun Moon Empire, but it is a little different from other nobles, there is no relationship between them and the royal family.

The Hongchen brothers and sisters have noble identities, and their talents are also extremely good. Their status and talents are completely worthy of the royal family, but Jing Hongchen will never agree.

He knew deeply that even if the Hongchen family really planned to marry, it would be impossible to choose Xiao Hongchen, let alone the royal family.

Mingdetang is the Hongchen family's biggest family property and reliance. The Hongchen family has always maintained a high degree of independence from the royal family. Jing Hongchen is unwilling to be completely tied to the royal family in this way.

For the future of these two heirs, he has further considerations.

Whether a family should choose a male heir or a female heir seems not a question worthy of discussion. The answer is obvious, and it must be to choose a male heir as the future head of the family.

But if you think about it carefully, the logic in it doesn't seem to be so taken for granted.

Generally speaking, male heirs have stronger talents and are naturally more suitable as the head of the family.

However, in the process of growing up in the future, the Patriarch will face various risks, and it will cost a lot to cultivate. If the Martial Soul weakens and mutates, and dies halfway, the investment will be considered a loss. For the Hongchen family with a small number of people For elite families, they cannot afford such a loss.

But what if a female heir is chosen?
Then the family can directly select a man with strong talent to join the family by selecting a son-in-law.It is also an investment, and this selection method directly transfers most of the costs.

It's just that the loyalty of outsiders is definitely not as good as that of insiders, and the risk of guarding against house thieves is also higher.

Of course, this logic is based on the assumption that a complete political marriage does not take into account the extremely unstable variable of love.

After all, there have been cases in history where male heirs betrayed their families for the sake of true love, right?
Jing Hongchen now naturally intends to train Xiao Hongchen as the next Hall Master of Mingde, as for the others, they are just alternatives.

In the viewing area, Team Sun and Moon.

Meng Hongchen looked at the field in surprise: "Princess Tianzhen's strength is so terrifying. She really deserves to be the Sun Wuhun of the royal family."

Under Xu Tianzhen's frightening high temperature, the ground of the competition platform has been melted and turned into liquid metal.

Xiao Hongchen frowned and nodded, and said in a low voice, "Unfortunately, he still isn't Huo Yuhao's opponent."

"Well, but I didn't expect that such an innocent princess would not be Huo Yuhao's opponent. He must have used those messy spirit skills again."

Meng Hongchen didn't notice Xiao Hongchen's expression, and asked himself.

"Brother, my martial spirit was restrained by the innocent princess, what are your chances of winning if you meet the innocent princess?"

Xiao Hongchen shook his head with a wry smile: "Not only you, even my martial spirit was restrained by Princess Tian Zhen."

"Under that high temperature, my soul guide cannon won't last long before it will be melted."

His ability is to manipulate metal, but under the terrifying high temperature that can easily melt metal, his ability is useless.

The martial spirits of both brothers and sisters are restrained by the Sun Wuhun. If the Sun and Moon team meets the Mingdu team, it is hard to say who will win and who will lose. Fortunately, they are not divided into a group.

Xiao Hongchen quickly recovered his confident smile.

"However, it takes a long time for the innocent princess to prepare to release her soul skills. I can completely defeat him before she makes a move."

But his smile didn't last long, and soon he showed a sad look again.

Only then did Meng Hongchen notice that his expression was not right, and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Hongchen muttered: "It's nothing, I just feel a stab in the back today for some reason."

……

Sentimental hotel.

Tonight is the second round of the Xishui League competition.

All the contestants have no names, only a number, and no one will show their real names in this kind of underground competition.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao is quietly waiting for the start of the competition in the VIP room prepared for the players.

"Master Shengzi, this is your number." Beside him, two disciples of Minglei Douluo respectfully handed over a number plate.

Their numbers are 96 and 98 respectively.

Huo Yuhao took the number plate without saying a word, and the two of them didn't dare to ask more questions.

"99."

He glanced at the number on the number plate, and didn't put it away after reading it, just kept watching.

"Looking so engrossed, what are you thinking about?" Bingdi asked, "99, Jiujiu, Jiujiu, thinking about that Princess Jiujiu?"

Huo Yuhao admitted frankly: "I did think of her."

He was silent for a while, and said: "My power of destiny seems to have become more active recently, and some weird thoughts have been popping up in my mind."

Ice Empress raised her eyebrows: "The power of destiny? You haven't mentioned this power for a long time."

Tianmeng, who was wriggling on the snow, said weakly: "Is that power really useful? Why do I feel that it's no different from thinking about it?"

"Just think of it as my sixth sense." Huo Yuhao said indifferently, "There is always a feeling that I will encounter a series of very complicated and uncontrollable things soon, and this feeling is getting stronger and stronger."

Electrolux said: "Son, are you sure you just felt this way recently?"

"determine."

Electrolux thought for a while, then asked, "Do you still remember how you got your power of destiny?"

"remember."

Huo Yuhao suddenly paused.

He carefully recalled the situation at that time, as if he had thought of some very important details.

Unknowingly, his brows frowned.

"Don't you believe in this so-called fate?" Xue Di's cold voice rang out, "Don't you even have the heart to resist fate?"

"Obviously, Xue Di, you haven't thought about the logic behind fate."

Huo Yuhao smiled.

"You said you were going to fight against fate."

"Exactly."

"The fate has predicted that you will resist it. May I ask you to obey it or resist it?"

Snow Emperor didn't answer.

Huo Yuhao did not continue this topic, and turned his attention to the entrance of the VIP room, where a tall and mighty young man walked into the room.

He is He Caitou in disguise.

He Caitou sat down not far from Huo Yuhao, the number on his number plate was 88.

Neither of them appeared in their real appearance, they glanced at each other and then looked away, like strangers.
