Peerless: Gu Master Transforms Douluo.

Just as Huo Yuhao said.

Xu Jiujiu came to see him specifically for these two things.

She nodded slightly, smiled, and closed the distance, saying, "Yes, although I didn't expect my team to win the championship this time, I am the captain after all, and it would be a bit of a pity if we were eliminated directly in the group stage."

"I never expected that we would actually meet in the group stage so early. My unintentional words back then have really come true. So, since our two teams met on the competition stage later, could you please go easy on us, Tower Master?"

Seeing Xu Jiujiu's performance, which was considered a success as long as he made it to the top eight, Huo Yuhao said with slight surprise, "Your Highness, don't underestimate yourself. As far as I know, because of your soul spirit, your soul skills have been greatly enhanced. Now, as long as you don't encounter a Soul Saint, which team can be your match?"

This is the Star Chain, which grants absolute control.

Even if Qiu'er is caught off guard and gets hit, she will be forcibly controlled for a short while.

Looking at all the participants in the Soul Master Competition, there really wasn't one with enough cultivation and a sufficient mechanism to resist this absolute control.

Furthermore, with the assistance of soul tools, Xu Jiujiu is now able to create an environment where he can use those powerful soul tools.

In addition, her other teams have also been strengthened. If the Star Luo team can be dragged into the team competition, their advantage will be huge. At that time, even the teams with Soul Saints may be upset if they are not careful.

It's no wonder that control-type Soul Masters are called the soul of the team, especially in Soul Master duels, where the advantages of control-type Soul Masters are brought to the fullest.

Hearing Huo Yuhao say this, Xu Jiujiu felt very pleased.

He's so good at sweet talk; no wonder so many girls around me fall for it.

Huo Yuhao continued, analyzing all the opponents in the second group for Xu Jiujiu and providing their battle records.

In terms of intelligence gathering, he could grasp all the specific information about the game without even leaving his house, and even the trump cards hidden during the battle were exposed completely by his mental power.

He listened quietly for a long time.

While feeling at peace, I was also drawn to it.

It's like a poison that you can't help but crave; you know it's wrong, but you can't help but want to succumb to it.

My brother is right.

We really should take the initiative.

Marriage alliances are truly out of the question.

Although polygamy is common in Douluo Continent, this rule is indeed somewhat inappropriate when applied to Huo Yuhao.

I'm really too infatuated with him.

And everyone involved is so outstanding.

Even the emperor had to designate a principal wife!
Could it be that the other party would only choose one from among many?
In short, would Huo Yuhao be willing to hurt so many people around him and then openly arrange a marriage with only himself?

Xu Jiujiu felt that he didn't have that charm.

If it were that mysterious deputy tower master, then this possibility might exist.

So let's seize the moment.

"What are you thinking about, so obsessed?"

It wasn't until Huo Yuhao waved his hand in front of his eyes that he finally snapped out of his daze, as if waking from a dream, and an unprecedented impulse surged into his heart.

She chuckled softly, then wrapped her arms around Huo Yuhao's neck, and their soft lips touched in his surprised gaze.

Sneak attack coming!

After a year's absence, she finally got to taste the treasure she had been longing for again.

No need for the formalities associated with being a princess!

She's going to live for herself now!

As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.

After studying the theory for a year, Xu Jiujiu felt that she was now terrifyingly strong.

Over time, she has learned about matters between men and women through various channels and is no longer the person she once was who would only skim the surface and respond passively.

Let's explore this further.

After a long while, they finally stopped their attack.

After they parted, she licked her lips, still feeling a bit unsatisfied.

It's a really nice feeling.

Especially after shedding the shackles of her identity, she was extremely moved and had an impulse to execute Yuhao on the spot.

"This is considered payment for the intelligence."

He spoke for a long time, as if it were a serious matter.

The information Huo Yuhao just told her was much more detailed than what her team had gathered; he practically wrote down the color of the opponent's underwear.

He truly is the all-powerful Master of the Spirit Transmission Tower!
And it wasn't just the same group.

They even listed out the teams most likely to advance from other groups, as if they could see the future.

With this information in hand, Xu Jiujiu felt that her luck in the subsequent quarterfinals was better, and it was even possible that she could go further and make it to the semifinals.

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but roll his eyes.

What kind of intelligence fee is this?
You clearly enjoy it yourself, don't you?

Forget about it.

Seeing that he showed no intention of leaving the room, Huo Yuhao blinked and said, "Now, shouldn't we get down to business?"

"He really is incredibly prescient."

After her initial sigh, Xu Jiujiu, her pretty face slightly flushed, coughed twice, her expression turning serious as she got straight to the point:
"We already know about the possible actions of the Sun Moon Empire..."

Because of Huo Yuhao's warning before participating in the Soul Master Competition, Xu Jiujiu brought a total of five Title Douluo-level powerhouses with her to the competition, including Sui Xing Dou, one of the few Super Douluo in the Luo Xing Luo Empire, as well as more than fifty scouts who secretly accompanied her.

When they first arrived in Mingdu, they didn't discover much, but as the competition progressed to the round-robin stage, clues began to emerge. They found that Mingdu was surrounded by a tight net, and now they could only enter but not leave.

This shows that the Sun Moon Empire is determined to deal with the participating teams in this Soul Master Competition, and wants to wipe out the contestants and their accompanying forces in one fell swoop.

This means that the Sun Moon Empire is ready for war and is prepared to launch an invasion against both the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Star Luo Empire simultaneously.

In recent days, Xu Jiujiu has reached a cooperation agreement with Princess Vina of the Heavenly Soul Empire. Now, the Body Sect, as the guardian sect of the Heavenly Soul Empire, has naturally joined the alliance to resist the Sun Moon Empire.

But that's not enough to break through.

If even a Limit Douluo like Long Xiaoyao were to make a move, they would have no chance.

However, since Huo Yuhao had given a warning about this matter, Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda must have anticipated it.

So Xu Jiujiu approached Yan Shaozhe, the teacher in charge of Shrek Academy.

Then Yan Shaozhe said that Shrek Academy had made preparations in secret, but everything else depended on Yuhao's decision.

That's why Xu Jiujiu came knocking on our door.

"If we unite, breaking through will be very easy, but I think you don't intend to stop here..."

Running away like this in such a sorry state was definitely not what Yuhao wanted.

Neither the Star Luo Empire nor the Heavenly Soul Empire was fully prepared for this war.

Therefore, Xu Jiujiu and Vina planned to stay in Mingdu after the Soul Master Competition to deal enough damage to the Sun Moon Empire and slow down their offensive.

"We call this a decapitation operation!"

"Not only must we thwart the Sun Moon Empire's conspiracy, but we must also seize this rare opportunity to kill Xu Tianran, that ambitious fellow!"

"Was this plan proposed by the Body Sect?"

Huo Yuhao smiled helplessly.

“That’s right, but I also think this plan is good. Without Xu Tianran, the Sun Moon Empire will definitely not be able to launch a war in a short time, which will give us more time to develop.”

He nodded for a long time, clearly somewhat excited.

Who wouldn't want to overcome skill with brute force?

So it all depends on how strong Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda are.

As for that unwritten rule in the Soul Master world: as long as the opponent still has one Title Douluo who has not been defeated, that Title Douluo cannot get involved in secular battles during the war.

This rule was a divine decree left by Tang San ten thousand years ago after he ascended to the God Realm.

Although there are no specific laws in any country, all Title Douluos, regardless of which side they belong to, follow this unspoken rule. It's not that they have any particular reverence for Tang San.

Even a single word from him must be taken as gospel.

Rather, a Title Douluo-level expert, once unleashing their full power, could easily slaughter an entire city. Therefore, unless a Title Douluo is alone, they won't break this rule.

Otherwise, if everyone breaks the rules, and you do the first day of the month today while I do the fifteenth day tomorrow, the entire continent will probably be plunged into chaos and suffering.

Everyone here is a powerful and influential person, and they will definitely abide by this unspoken rule before things completely fall apart.

However, coincidentally, Xu Tianran had already reached the title of Douluo through drug use, so this unspoken rule did not apply to him.

Therefore, Poison Undying, the sect leader of the Body Sect, came up with this plan on a whim.

As long as he and Xuanzi, both level 98 Super Douluo, hold off Long Xiaoyao, the others can infiltrate the palace to assassinate Xu Tianran, wouldn't that work?
easy to understand.

But the poison might not kill them.

This time, Xuanzi wasn't with Shrek Academy. He was seriously injured while rescuing Tang Yin and is currently recuperating there.

On the surface, Yan Shaozhe is the strongest among Shrek's entourage, but in secret, Elder Mu is also present.

Having fully recovered from his injuries, he was still vigorous despite his age. He came along not only to protect the younger generation but also because he wanted to catch up with Long Xiaoyao.

As for the power of the Spirit Pagoda, it goes without saying.

Even if Gu Yuena and Di Tian don't make a move, just Huo Yuhao, an 80th-level Soul Saint, is enough to make those Title Douluos question their existence.

Even if Xu Tianran is a Title Douluo and has a level nine soul tool to protect him, even if he encounters Ye Xishui or Kong Deming, as long as Huo Yuhao wants to make a move, he can guarantee that Xu Tianran will die silently.

But the problem is, what if Xu Tianran hadn't been killed?

Because Ju Zi was not around, there was no one to unite the army for Xu Tianran. Even if he ascended the throne, he was only outwardly strong but inwardly weak.

In reality, the Sun Moon Empire was not fully prepared for war.

There weren't that many people who supported Xu Tianran in launching the war.

The nobles were only thinking about continuing the music and dancing.

The Hongchen family and Xu Tianran are not of one mind.

Mingde Hall is solely focused on researching soul guides.

The powerful figures in the Hall of Offerings did not come out to support Xu Tianran.

Although relying on soul tools, the Sun Moon Empire has a high probability of dominating the continent, it will inevitably imprison the people and waste resources, and it will take a very long time.

The collaboration with the Holy Spirit Church is clearly driven by the idea of ​​reaping the benefits without lifting a finger.

Otherwise, why go to all the trouble of taking participants hostage?

For Huo Yuhao...

If he, who possessed the information from the original work, were to truly harden his heart and deliver a ruthless blow to the armory beneath the palace, it would be a direct reenactment of the Mingdu explosion tragedy, wiping out the entire Sun Moon Imperial Family and Mingde Hall in one fell swoop.

However, Heaven has a benevolent nature.

Moreover, the common people of Mingdu were innocent.

This armory can be brought to the Spirit Pagoda and will be even more effective.

With that in mind, Huo Yuhao readily agreed to the decapitation plan.

Kill them! The dragons are practically upon us, why not kill them?

Submit or die.

After killing Xu Tian, ​​we might as well just support the Hongchen family to take over.

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's agreement, Xu Jiujiu's delicate body trembled.

"With your help, we will surely succeed."

The two then discussed the specific details of their plan.

They said that with a formidable enemy at hand, they must unite as one.

However, the Douluo Three Kingdoms is actually missing the Douling Empire.

However, no one had high hopes for this guy who was content with his corner of the world. The overall strength of the Douling Empire was not strong to begin with, and it didn't need the other party's addition.

Now that the important business is over, it's time for Xu Jiujiu to go back.

Just as Huo Yuhao was about to open the door, Xu Jiujiu suddenly spoke up: "Um, it's getting late, how about I stay the night?"

Huo Yuhao paused in his actions, turned around to look at the silly girl, and couldn't help but complain, "Going back to your room is just a few steps away, isn't it?"

Seeing that Huo Yuhao was oblivious to the obvious and pointed out the flaw.

Xu Jiujiu's face flushed red, and she couldn't help but glare at the other person.

"Hmph, I know, then I'm leaving."

After saying that, she walked towards the door.

When she got close to Huo Yuhao, she quickly kissed him to vent her dissatisfaction, and then pretended to be calm and left quickly.

Now is indeed not the right time.

Not only do they have to play matches, but there's also a decapitation plan in the works.

It's best not to indulge in the pleasures of love for now.

Let's wait until the Soul Master Competition is over before discussing anything further.

Now is not the time for sentimental attachments.

But love is war!
At this moment, Xu Jiujiu had already made up her mind.

When she returns to the Spirit Tower as a Spirit Master, she refuses to believe she won't find a suitable opportunity to join the battle.

……

Amidst the undercurrents, the round-robin tournament continued.

It's not that Xu Jiujiu and the others are inflexible; they clearly know the Soul Master Competition is a trap, yet they still continue to play along with the Sun Moon Empire.

Since we're already here, what's wrong with playing a match?
Moreover, it's essential to have a legitimate reason for your actions, to first gain the upper hand in public opinion, and then you can start pointing fingers at the Sun Moon Empire.

In particular, the cooperation between the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult.

This was undoubtedly a terrible move.

It's possible that some people in the Sun Moon Empire were unaware of the dangers of evil spirit masters, and some even lamented the evil spirit masters who died at the hands of Bei Bei.

However, with the popularization of the Spirit Network, people received education on the Soul Master Forum, coupled with the Holy Spirit Sect's bloody performance in the competition.

The evil spirit masters have aroused strong dissatisfaction among the people.

Why did the Holy Spirit Church join this competition?

They demand an explanation from the official Sun Moon Empire.

Xu Tianran didn't care at all.

He directly suppressed public discussion about evil spirit masters, and even claimed that he would make the Holy Spirit Cult the national religion of the Sun Moon Empire.

There were dissenting voices within the Sun and Moon Empire.

But Emperor Xu Tianran couldn't hear these voices at all.

All he knew was that the winner takes all.

History is written by the victors. Wouldn't it be better if he unified the continent in the future, then turned against them and eradicated the Holy Spirit Cult?

So, Xu Tianran stopped acting altogether.

With his strong support, the Holy Spirit Cult was thus legitimized and became the national religion of the Sun and Moon Empire.

He even had the Holy Spirit Cult seize the property of several opposing nobles.

In a short time, everyone in Mingdu was in a state of panic.

Although everyone is still watching the Soul Master Competition, many of them have already changed their stance and support someone who can suppress the Holy Spirit Cult like Shrek Academy did... (End of Chapter)
