Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 303 Complaints
"I... am not trying to save my life, but rather because I have long been dissatisfied with Shrek Academy."

Huo Yuhao lowered his head, his eyes flickering slightly.

Ming Lei Douluo's gaze changed, and he leaned closer. Only Lin Xiao, who was standing to the side, had a slightly strange expression under his mask.

"It claims to be the number one Soul Master Academy on the continent, yet it doesn't even have the eye to recognize the talent of its students."

Huo Yuhao said resentfully, then suddenly raised his head, a fierce glint in his eyes, "When I first enrolled, the people in the Martial Soul Department didn't even look down on my talent."

"In the freshman competition, all the other students who won the championship with me became core disciples. Even some people who were not as strong as me got the core disciple spots, but I didn't get one."

"Later, I caught the eye of the Soul Guidance Department, and the dean of the Martial Soul Department—" Huo Yuhao paused slightly, "and Yan Shaozhe pretended to invite me to the Martial Soul Department."

"But their Martial Soul Department doesn't train disciples at all. The daily lessons are just running and running in iron armor. If you don't meet the teacher's expectations, you'll be expelled from the academy."

"Moreover, even the academy's canteen is only open to the children of noble families, who get better food and supplements. Disciples like me, who come from poor backgrounds, can only eat the worst food. I can't even afford that, so I have to sell grilled fish to make money."

"How can such an academy be called the number one academy on the continent?"

"It's just a way to recruit students with good talent by relying on the name, and then expel those who can't keep up. Naturally, everyone who comes out of there is extraordinary."

"I'm already tired of this kind of place."

Huo Yuhao's voice was low and deep, and when he spoke of the deepest emotions, his voice even trembled slightly.

Let alone the Nether Thunder Douluo, even Lin Xiao, who was standing to the side, couldn't tell whether Huo Yuhao was saying this on purpose in front of the Nether Thunder Douluo or was truly expressing his feelings.

Ming Lei Douluo looked at Huo Yuhao with a slight shift in his eyes. Although it sounded somewhat unbelievable, he still believed Huo Yuhao's words to some extent for some reason.

Seemingly noticing the change in Ming Lei Douluo's eyes, Huo Yuhao continued, adding another detail, "And back then, I almost died twice at Shrek Academy."

"The first time was because I defeated a disciple in the freshman competition. That disciple had powerful connections and wanted to send someone to kill me."

"Later, I was lucky enough to escape, but Shrek Academy's punishment was simply to bar him from entering the inner courtyard. Even last year, after I completed my exchange student course at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, that disciple who wasn't allowed to enter the inner courtyard still showed up there!"

"The second time, it was because an inner court disciple couldn't control his martial spirit, and I almost died at the hands of that inner court disciple..."

Huo Yuhao's words made Ming Lei Douluo somewhat insecure. He hadn't expected that Shrek Academy, renowned throughout the Douluo Continent and hailed as the continent's number one academy, would have such sordid affairs.

He narrowed his eyes and suddenly raised his hand to remove the soul-guided devices that were gagging Wang Dong and He Caitou.

Even without the restraints of the soul tools, the two of them were no longer as excited as before. They stared blankly at Huo Yuhao, who was kneeling on the ground, with an incredulous look on their faces.

Ming Lei Douluo's gaze swept over the two of them before returning to Huo Yuhao. "Judging from their reactions, these things must all be true?"

"Yuhao..." Wang Dong spoke softly, wanting to look into Huo Yuhao's eyes, "What you've said... is all of this your true thought?"

He Caitou, standing to the side, simply pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.

"Hahaha." Ming Lei Douluo suddenly laughed and reached out to help Huo Yuhao up from the ground. "Alright, all of this is in the past. In my Holy Sect, anyone who has any grievances can take action to resolve them."

As he spoke, he looked up at Lin Xiao again, "Look at our Eighth Brother, he wasn't in the position of elder from the beginning."

"Trust me, you will be satisfied with the atmosphere in the Holy Church." "Thank you, Elder." Huo Yuhao's face lit up with joy, and he bowed deeply.

The Thunder God's smile deepened as he turned to look at Wang Dong and He Caitou, "As for those two..."

"No need for the elders to take action themselves!" Huo Yuhao suddenly spoke before Ming Lei Douluo could finish speaking, and then his soul power surged and his spiritual power rose.

Standing next to Huo Yuhao, Ming Lei Douluo even felt a momentary lapse in his mind. Then, he saw Huo Yuhao suddenly rush out and raise his hand to strike Wang Dong and He Caitou, who were unable to resist.

Looking at the pair of pinkish-blue eyes so close to him, Huo Yuhao did not hesitate at all and raised his palm to pat Wang Dong's forehead.

"Puff-"

"Puff-"

The eyes of He Caitou and Wang Dong instantly lost focus, and their bodies collapsed to the ground, completely lifeless. Only Huo Yuhao paused slightly.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he didn't see any doubt in Wang Dong's eyes. Instead, he saw complete trust.

"Hahaha, good!" Seeing this, Ming Lei Douluo laughed loudly, "Your actions are indeed as decisive as ever. It's no wonder I had such high hopes for you."

"Since that's the case, I can pretend that what happened before never happened. From now on, you will stay by my side."

“Yes…” Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment, “Teacher.”

"Hahaha." The laughter of the Dark Thunder Douluo almost pierced through the entire warehouse. "You're quick-witted. I don't care where you come from. After you finish participating in this Soul Master Competition, I'll take you back to headquarters."

"After that, you will become my true disciple." Ming Lei Douluo said, glancing around. "For the next few days, you will stay by my side."

Headquarters...

Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly bowed again, "Thank you, teacher."

"Congratulations, Third Brother, on gaining another excellent disciple." Lin Xiao smiled and took two steps forward after the two "master and disciple" finished exchanging pleasantries.

Just as they were about to clean up Chen An's body on the ground, Huo Yuhao cut them off, saying, "Elder, let me do it."

"Alright, Eighth Brother, let me, your disciple, handle these matters."

Lin Xiao paused slightly, nodded, and walked to the side of Ming Lei Douluo.

"Third Brother, the people from Shrek Academy have never gotten along with us. You really trust this Tang Wu so much?"

"What does it have to do with anything?" Ming Lei Douluo also looked over with a smile. "Aren't there plenty of people from Shrek Academy in the sect?"

"No matter what he's really thinking, he'll eventually become one of us, won't he?"

"Besides, don't you think it's interesting to betray the academy and then encounter and fight with people from your original academy?"

Lin Xiao opened his mouth upon hearing this, then shook his head helplessly. Sure enough, this was the only hobby of the Nether Thunder Douluo.
