Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 19 Old Huo has never fought such a rich battle before.
Just as Jing Hongchen thought, Kong Deming also meant the same thing. Before Huo Yuhao became a level 5 Soul Master and had a solid foundation of basic knowledge, he did not plan to let Huo Yuhao go to the research department to study.

Forcing growth is undesirable, and this has nothing to do with how many resources one can obtain. The more talented a person is, the more solid their foundation needs to be.

Even so, the benefits that becoming a disciple could bring to Huo Yuhao were unimaginable.

Kong Deming then took out another soul guide token and a level nine storage soul guide device and handed them to Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, this is a soul guide token exclusive to the Hall of Offering and the Hall of Bright Virtue. From now on, you can come to the Hall of Offering to find me every week on your rest days to solve some problems related to martial soul cultivation and soul guide device research."

"This level nine storage soul tool is my masterpiece. The main body is made of starlight sapphire and is called the Starlight Ring. Its internal space is huge. It can not only store living things, but also has the functions of concealment and sealing. In addition, there is a top-level meditation method, ten million gold soul coins, and complete theoretical knowledge before becoming a level seven soul master. Consider it my gift to you, Yuhao, for becoming a disciple."

Choosing between a Soul Master and a Soul Instructor? What a joke! In Kong Deming's view, Huo Yuhao is fully capable of taking both paths to their extremes.

Back then, he neglected the importance of martial soul cultivation and became obsessed with the path of a soul master, which led to his current lack of progress. Due to his physical condition, he was unable to attach a soul ring to his second martial soul and was stuck at level 94, unable to advance any further.

If he weren't limited by his soul power, and if he could reach the Super Douluo level, he would be fully confident in becoming a true level 10 Soul Master.

Therefore, he must do everything in his power to cultivate Huo Yuhao, whether as a Soul Master or a Soul Instructor, he must help this disciple reach the end. He absolutely will not allow the same thing that happened to him to happen to this disciple.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao was already dizzy and overwhelmed by the series of surprises that had just happened.

What is a surprise? Shrek, come and see what a fucking surprise is!
Two level-nine soul tools: one is the level-nine trigger-type defensive soul tool, Red Dust Protection, which has no soul power limit; the other is the level-nine storage soul tool, Starlight Ring, which can store living things while also having the functions of concealment and sealing; ten million gold soul coins, a top-level meditation method, and systematic knowledge sufficient to study up to the level-seven soul tool master.
Unable to bear the sudden wealth, Huo Yuhao felt his heart needed a moment to catch its breath.

Old Huo has never fought such a rich battle before!
"Thank you teacher."

It would be a lie to say he wasn't moved. Only now, after two months of tension, could Huo Yuhao finally relax. From today onward, he no longer had to worry about his personal safety.

As the biggest backer of the Sun Moon Empire, without exception, as long as Huo Yuhao remains Kong Deming's closed-door disciple, neither the royal family nor the Holy Spirit Cult hiding in the shadows will dare to provoke him openly.

Previously, he was worried that breaking the record for the fastest person to become a Level 2 Soul Master in the Sun Moon Empire might attract the attention of some people with ulterior motives, but now he can breathe a sigh of relief.

Lin Jiayi and Shi Xuan stepped forward and congratulated Huo Yuhao with envy.

Good heavens! Huo Yuhao was already a genius with limitless potential, and now he's become Master Kong's last disciple. They dare not even imagine how far he can go in the future.

At this moment, Lin Jiayi asked somewhat cautiously.

"Dean, Elder Kong, should we keep it a secret that Yuhao broke the Empire's record for the fastest person to become a Level 2 Soul Master?"

Kong Deming frowned, waved his hand, and spoke directly.

"Keep it secret? What secret? Just release the news directly. Not only that, also release the news that I accepted Yuhao as my last disciple. Let some people see the situation clearly, so that some annoying flies won't bother my disciple."

Of course, this only applies to Huo Yuhao's Soul Master talent. As for the matter of twin martial souls, keeping such things hidden is an unspoken rule. This is a trump card, and no one would be foolish enough to actively reveal their trump card to gain attention.

Jing Hongchen chimed in, "That's right. The purpose of releasing this information is to let outsiders see that our Sun Moon Empire is at its peak, with geniuses emerging one after another. What kind of image would it be to hide it like this?"

If Huo Yuhao had become his disciple, Jing Hongchen might have been more secure, but now that Kong Deming has personally intervened, there's really no need to hide anything anymore.

Those low-level Soul Masters or Soul Instructors pose no threat to Huo Yuhao, and those at the top cannot hide the truth even if they want to. So it's better to release the information openly.

Just like Xiao and Meng, they were once-in-a-millennium geniuses of the Sun Moon Empire, and now they are doing just fine. With Kong Deming around, who can hurt Huo Yuhao?

By the way, now that kid Yuhao has risen to prominence and become the most talented Soul Master in the Empire, Xiao has finally found a worthy opponent to follow. I'll go back and find that kid and teach him to tone down his arrogant nature.

"Yes!"

Lin Jiayi could already imagine the uproar that would ensue after Huo Yuhao's news broke.

Breaking the historical record of a Level 2 Soul Master in three months, both works pioneered the development of Soul Tools.
A storm is coming.

Instead of staying in the experimental area, Huo Yuhao talked with Jing Hongchen and others for a long time before going to the research department with Kong Deming and Xuan Ziwen.

Don't get me wrong, Kong Deming simply wanted to get rid of Xuan Ziwen, this disciple who kept asking questions along the way and driving him crazy. Compared to the quiet Xiao Yuhao, this disciple just seemed noisy to him now.

"Ziwen, go do your experiment. I have some things to tell Yuhao."

Xuan Ziwen wanted to try again, but seeing the warning look in his teacher's eyes, he didn't have the courage to speak. He just whispered a sentence in Yuhao's ear.

"Yuhao, don't forget to come over to your senior brother's place. Let's exchange ideas on soul tool research together."

After Xuan Ziwen left, Kong Deming took Huo Yuhao to the Hall of Offerings. Contrary to the general perception that Mingde Hall represented the most advanced soul tool research on the continent, the Hall of Offerings was actually the core soul tool research institution of the Sun Moon Empire, with a status far higher than Mingde Hall, and was directly led by Kong Deming, a level 10 soul tool master.

Not only is it a top-secret organization, but the Hall of Worship is also the ultimate trump card of the Sun Moon Empire's soul tool technology. It serves only the royal family and the empire's strategy, is independent of the Hall of Bright Virtue, and has mastered the most cutting-edge "soul tool and human body fusion" technology. All its members are composed of level nine soul masters, making it comparable to Shrek Sea God Pavilion.

Huo Yuhao followed his teacher, looking at the numerous level-nine soul tools in the ancestral hall, feeling as if his eyes were about to glaze over.

Besides the fusion technology between soul tools and human body, there are two strategic-level soul tools that he finds very novel: one is called Death God, and the other is the prototype of a high-altitude soul tool.

Huo Yuhao immediately understood that Mingde Hall and Gongfeng Hall had a clear hierarchical difference.

If the Mingde Hall focuses on conventional soul tools (such as fixed-mount soul-guided cannons) and serves mid-to-high-level soul masters, then the Gongfeng Hall specializes in the "forbidden domain" and targets only top-tier experts.
