Douluo Continent: The Incarnation of a Divine Beast, Sister Huo Yutong!

Chapter 2 Conflict
A spirit is the foundation of a spirit master; a spirit master's upper limit is determined when their spirit awakens.

Correspondingly, the quality of a Martial Soul determines a Soul Master's combat power.

At the same level, a Blue Silver Grass Soul Master is definitely no match for a Clear Sky Hammer Soul Master, unless the opponent doesn't have a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul at all, or is cheating.

Unfortunately, that Buddha Tang possessed both qualities.

Dai Yuhao and Dai Yutong secretly slipped away, following the route they remembered to arrive at the side gate of the Duke's mansion.

Because of the Duchess's oppression, he and Yu Tong's mother, that gentle and kind woman, were driven to the woodshed and assigned the hardest work.

Because his main consciousness was dormant, Dai Yuhao had always seemed dull and foolish before today.

Logically speaking, with the Duchess's tacit approval, someone with his personality would surely be bullied severely.

But the result was quite the opposite. The servants would avoid him whenever they saw him, and even if they despised him for not having a martial spirit, they dared not show it.

why?
Because after he turned three, he severely punished those servants who dared to bully Huo Yun'er or the two siblings!
A gift from an alpaca gave him extraordinary physical abilities from a young age; he not only developed extremely quickly but also possessed astonishing strength.

In Zhang Mazi's words, this guy is three years old?
In terms of physical strength alone, even those great soul masters with beast spirits are not as good as him. How could those servants who can only bully ordinary people possibly be his match?
After being bullied so many times, the servants also knew that Dai Yuhao was not someone to be trifled with. Although they still ostracized him, Huo Yun'er and Yu Tong were treated much better than in the original story.

Although food was still scarce, it wasn't like in the original story where someone burned their chest for a pancake.

Yu Tong's innate soul power is level three, far exceeding level one in the original work, which is a good example.

Not long after stepping out of the side door, Dai Yuhao vaguely heard a commotion, as if a group of people were walking in their direction.

Dai Yuhao paused, his brows furrowing slightly.

The woodshed was in a remote location, and no one ever came here normally. The servants of the White Tiger Duke's mansion knew their own power and would not go through this place.

Could it be... the Duchess?!

Thinking of this, Dai Yuhao subconsciously clenched his fist.

The Duchess's crazy actions in the original novel forced Dai Yuhao to make the worst-case scenario plan.

"Brother? What's wrong?"

Seeing her brother's gloomy face, the little girl quickly said something.

Dai Yuhao's face darkened. He didn't reply immediately, but instead pulled the little girl behind him.

"Stay behind me, don't come out!"

After speaking, Dai Yuhao looked at the crowd walking towards him with a solemn expression.

His extraordinary abilities allowed him to see the other person's face immediately, which is why he had to ensure Yu Tong's safety first.

In the distance, a blond boy of similar age, dressed in fine clothes and with an arrogant expression, was being escorted by a group of guards as he walked towards him.

Similar age, blonde hair, and gorgeous clothes!

There is only one person who meets the above requirements and is present in the White Tiger Duke's mansion: Dai Huabin!
In the original novel, Huo Yuhao's biggest enemy in the early stages was his half-brother, who was also the source of his nightmares.

In this life, thanks to his protection, Dai Huabin didn't have much involvement with them, but...

The direction Dai Huabin came from was the woodshed, which was also his and Yu Tong's home.

The fact that they came from that direction makes their meaning quite clear.

While they were thinking, Dai Huabin had already arrived in front of the two of them.

Seeing the tattered clothes on Dai Yuhao and Dai Yutong, Dai Huabin's face turned cold, and he said in a harsh voice:
"Where did this servant come from? Get out of my way!"

As he spoke, Dai Huabin drew a long, thin whip from his waist and was about to lash out at the two of them.

"Snapped!"

Dai Yuhao reacted quickly, grabbing the long whip and preventing it from harming Yu Tong.

Seeing that Dai Yuhao still dared to resist, Dai Huabin's expression changed. He was about to lose his temper when a servant stepped forward and shouted:
"Second Young Master, these two are Dai Yuhao and Dai Yutong..."

Upon hearing this, Dai Huabin's gloom deepened.

"They don't deserve the surname Dai!"

"A useless eye with only level three innate soul power, a freak without even a martial soul!"

“Mother is right, they are a disgrace to the Duke’s mansion!”

Despite Dai Huabin's verbal insults, Dai Yuhao remained calm.

If it were just Dai Huabin, he was confident he could take his life within three moves, but Dai Huabin had too many guards around him, and he also had to be wary of Yu Tong.

Yu Tong's martial soul has just awakened, and her soul power is only level three. What if she gets caught in the crossfire...?

Let them curse me; they'll get their revenge sooner or later anyway!
Dai Yuhao patted Yu Tong and was about to leave when he heard Dai Huabin speak again:
"To be able to give birth to these two freaks, that Huo Yun'er is truly wicked..."

"The second young master is right..."

"Yeah yeah…"

"She was lucky she didn't kill that guy today..."

Hearing the guard's flattery, Dai Huabin felt satisfied. Just as he was about to leave with his eyes down, he suddenly felt a flash of white light in front of him, followed by a powerful force on his neck.

A hand gripped his neck tightly like a pair of pliers, so strong that Dai Huabin coughed painfully.

From the moment Dai Yuhao disappeared to the moment Dai Huabin was grabbed by the neck, it all lasted less than half a second.

By the time Dai Huabin's guards reacted, the previously arrogant second young master was struggling frantically like a dead dog. "Damn it..."

"Release...release the second young master..."

"You bastard, do you know what you're doing?"

Seeing Dai Huabin struggling as he was lifted up by Dai Yuhao's single arm, the guards turned pale with fright.

If something happens to Dai Huabin, that duchess…

Thinking of the Duchess's methods, the guards all shuddered, and their words became increasingly heated.

As the guards drew closer, Dai Yuhao slightly increased the pressure in his hand.

This pampered young master had never suffered like this before, and immediately struggled desperately with his hands.

Those who possess a Beast Martial Soul will have their physical attributes improved after awakening their Martial Soul and adding Soul Rings.

Given Dai Huabin's White Tiger quality, he might have been able to break free if he had attached a decent hundred-year soul ring, but now...

"Don't come any closer, or else..."

Dai Yuhao waved one hand, the meaning was clear.

"You...you mustn't do anything reckless..."

"If anything happens to the second young master... you won't be able to escape either!"

The guards were all bark and no bite, fearing that Dai Yuhao might snap Dai Huabin's neck with a single forceful movement.

"Cut the nonsense!"

"Tell me! What did you just do?"

The guards looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

If I really tell him, this guy in front of me will probably go berserk, right?

"Ok?"

Seeing the guards' gloomy faces and their reluctance to speak, Dai Yuhao's heart sank, and he had a vague sense of unease.

"Wait... I'll talk... I'll talk..."

Seeing that Tianyu had increased the force, the leading guard was nearly scared to death.

"The mistress said... Huo Yun'er's two children have brought shame upon the White Tiger Duke's mansion..."

"Let...let the second young master teach her a lesson..."

"A lesson? Hah, sending a Soul Master to teach an ordinary person a lesson?"

Although he had expected it, he was still furious when he heard what had happened.

Is he really that impatient to make a move when he's only at the third level of innate soul power?
"Clap!"

In a fit of rage, Dai Yuhao violently slammed Dai Huabin to the ground.

A sharp pain shot through his lower body, but what was even more unbearable than the agony was the humiliation of being utterly defenseless against this useless man without a martial spirit.

"Kill him! Kill him!"

Surrounded by guards, Dai Huabin roared in a hoarse voice!

On the other side, the little girl, having heard the whole story, already had tears welling up in her eyes, making her look especially pitiful with her big blue eyes.

"Brother... Mother... she really..."

"Yutong, don't panic, listen to me..."

Keep walking forward... don't look back... don't be afraid of anyone you meet...

"But they are Soul Masters, and there are so many of them..."

"Trust me...please trust me, okay?"

Dai Yuhao cupped Dai Yutong's small head in his hands, their foreheads touching. A strange vibration emanated from him, gradually calming Huo Yutong's anxious mood.

"Very soon..."

"I promise... I'll catch up with you very soon..."

"Remember, don't look back..."

"Hmm...I understand..."

Dai Yutong nodded, then ran straight towards the small house in the distance.

At that moment, the guards, under Dai Huabin's command, rushed up to Dai Yuhao.

Facing the cold, sharp blade, Huo Yuhao felt no fear whatsoever.

Inside Huo Yuhao's body, a blue and white pearl was shining brightly.

Through the pale blue light, one could see a strange creature with a deep and mysterious blue glow, its body covered in silver-white scales, and a huge gem on each arm slowly spreading its wings.

God of Space: Palkia!
A great god from another world, far surpassing the native gods of this world, unleashes His divine power in this world for the first time!
