Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Chapter 98 Huo Yuhao challenges Dai Huabin to a duel; Tang Clan's first battle after its comeback?
"Hurry, hurry! There's a good show to watch at the Soul Arena!"

"What's going on now? Which senior is challenging us to a duel this time?"

"Not a senior, but a freshman! Huo Yuhao from Class 1 of the freshmen has publicly challenged Dai Huabin, the Soul Master from Class 5 of the freshmen!"

"What?! A Soul Master fighting a Soul Venerable? Are you crazy? Who is this Huo Yuhao, and why is he so arrogant?"

"Who cares? There's bound to be some fun! Let's hurry, or we'll miss out on seats!"

Dai Yuntian, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao, who had just returned to the academy from the restaurant, naturally heard the news as well.

Wang Dong crossed his arms, his face full of disdain, and sneered, "Tsk, has Huo Yuhao gone crazy from training? A Soul Master dares to challenge a Soul Venerable? He's simply ignorant of his own limitations and just trying to attract attention!"

Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement, but being naturally curious, she still suggested, "Why don't we go take a look too?"

"Okay."

Dai Yuntian's eyes flickered slightly, and a sense of interest arose in his heart.

Huo Yuhao... Dai Huabin... Interesting.

He was eager to see if his second brother, Dai Huabin, whom he had trained, could defeat this "chosen one" who was blessed with great fortune.
The three followed the crowd to the Soul Arena, where they found a sea of ​​people, with every seat in the stands filled and the noise almost lifting the roof off.

They were worried about not being able to find seats.

"Brother Yuntian, we're here!"

A clear and cheerful voice came from the side front.

Dai Yuntian looked in the direction of the sound.

Zhu Lu and Cui Yajie were sitting in a spot with a great view, waving excitedly at them.

Surprisingly, there were three or four empty seats next to them, as if they had been reserved for them.

Dai Yuntian led Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao through the crowd.

"Lulu, Cui Yajie, what brings you here too?"

Dai Yuntian asked with some surprise, and then sat down in the empty seat next to Zhu Lu.

Cui Yajie rolled her eyes at Zhu Lu beside her, her tone tinged with annoyance:
"It's all because someone insisted you'd definitely come, dragging me here early to grab a spot! If I'd known it would be this crowded, like a sardine can, I wouldn't have come to suffer like this!"

Zhu Lu blushed deeply and quickly retorted, not forgetting to "betray" her best friend:
"Ya Ya, that's not what you said just now. You said, 'If Dai Yuntian comes, I'll reluctantly accompany you to see it'! Now you're blaming me!"

"Hey, Lulu! You...you're talking nonsense! I didn't say anything!"

Upon being exposed, Cui Yajie blushed instantly and lunged forward to cover Zhu Lu's mouth.

The two girls immediately burst into laughter and playful banter.

Seeing this "embracing on both sides" arrangement, Wang Dong quietly curled his lip:

"Xiao Xiao, did you see that? Dai Yuntian is such a womanizer. One Zhu Lu wasn't enough, he also has Cui Yajie! Who knows who he's eyeing now!"

Xiao Xiao blushed and her heart raced. She subconsciously glanced at Dai Yuntian before quickly lowering her head again.

She didn't say anything, but what flickered in her big, bright eyes was clearly not disgust, but a mixture of shyness, curiosity... and even a hint of expectation!
Could she be the one being targeted?
……

at the same time.

Waiting room.

"Why hasn't Beibei arrived yet! Is it because I said a few words to Yuhao yesterday when I was teaching him hidden weapons that he stood us up?"

"How can a grown man be so petty? He has no sense of perspective at all!"

Tang Ya paced back and forth, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, constantly complaining.

With the start time drawing ever closer, her patience was wearing thin.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao quickly comforted her, "Teacher Xiaoya, don't worry. Senior Brother Beibei... he might really have been delayed by something. I believe he didn't do it on purpose."

Seeing that Huo Yuhao, the "victim" that Bei Bei had mentioned, was actually speaking up for Bei Bei.

Tang Ya felt even more indignant on his behalf: "Yuhao, stop defending him. Beibei has been completely out of his mind these past few days, acting inexplicably!"

Tang Ya suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Huo Yuhao seriously: "By the way, Yuhao, have you been practicing the Xuan Tian Gong that I taught you these past few days? This is the foundation of our Tang Clan, and we can't slack off in the slightest!"

"Yes, Sister Xiaoya, I haven't forgotten for a moment. I practice every night."

"Really? You're not kidding me, let me check."

Tang Ya stepped forward, gently placed her jade-like hand on Huo Yuhao's chest, and used her soul power to probe into his body, carefully examining him.

Because they were so close, Huo Yuhao could even clearly see the white expanse under Tang Ya's clothes.

He subconsciously swallowed, a sense of guilt constantly reminding him of this.

Senior Brother Beibei has been so good to me, I can't do anything to betray him!

Huo Yuhao calmed his breathing and forcibly turned his gaze away. After a moment, Tang Ya felt the inexhaustible, continuous soul power unique to the Xuan Tian Gong, and breathed a sigh of relief, nodding in satisfaction: "Yuhao, it seems you didn't lie to me, that's good."

In her opinion, with the soul power of Tang Sect's Xuan Tian Gong combined with Ghost Shadow Misty Tracks, as long as Huo Yuhao doesn't engage in close combat with Dai Huabin, he won't lose to him in terms of attrition.

"Yuhao, when you get on stage, don't hold back. As long as you can win, just throw all sorts of hidden weapons at him!"

"This is the first battle since the Tang Clan's return, so don't embarrass yourselves, you hear me? Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!"

Tang Ya pouted, grabbed Huo Yuhao's ear, and glared at him fiercely.

Huo Yuhao's ears turned slightly red, and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Teacher Xiaoya! I will definitely do my best!"

Looking at Tang Ya so close, her feigned fierceness only accentuated her delicate beauty.

"Even when Xiaoya is angry, she's so cute... Senior Brother Beibei is so lucky!"

Just then, the door to the waiting room was pushed open, and Beibei finally appeared.

This scene also happened to be seen by Beibei.

But Bei Bei didn't find anything wrong with Tang Ya's interaction with Huo Yuhao just now.

After all, Tang Ya has always had a very easygoing personality.

Compared to yesterday's almost personal, hands-on instruction, this is already within the "normal" range.

Seeing who it was, Tang Ya walked over angrily and stretched out her hand: "Beibei, why are you so late? Do you know how worried Yuhao is? Hurry up, did you buy the dragon beard needles?"

Hearing her constantly mention Yuhao, Beibei felt a little uncomfortable and silently handed over a piece of high-quality rutilated quartz that she was carrying.

"Phew, great!"

Tang Ya took the hair crystal, then took out a small hammer from her personal soul tool and smashed it down.

The rutilated quartz instantly transformed into countless tiny golden dots.

She quickly collected them, kept some for herself, and gave the rest to Huo Yuhao.

Seeing this, Beibei was a little dissatisfied: "Xiaoya, you should at least leave some for me."

You should know that rutilated quartz is not cheap these days.

Tang Ya snorted: "What, you have a problem with that? Humph, consider this your apology for leaving without saying goodbye yesterday. Besides, I'm giving it to Yuhao, not to anyone else."

Beibei hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

Just then, an announcement rang out from the arena, clearly reaching every corner:

"Huo Yuhao from Class 1 and Dai Huabin from Class 5, please enter the venue immediately!"

……

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and strode onto the spacious Soul Battle Platform.

At the entrance on the other side, a blond figure also appeared proudly.

Upon seeing Dai Huabin, Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot, and the hatred that had been building up in his heart for so long erupted instantly.

"Dai Huabin, my mother's revenge will start with you. I will make you lose even more miserably!"

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao glared at Dai Huabin provocatively.

However, Dai Huabin didn't even glance at him.

He looked around and quickly located Dai Yuntian's position.

Under the watchful eyes of countless questioning men, Dai Huabin raised his hand and made a clear gesture in the direction of Dai Yuntian.

One index finger.

Many people in the audience saw the gesture, but none of them understood why.

What does it mean when he makes a "1" gesture?

"Does that mean he only has a 10% chance of losing?"

"No, no, no, I think it's a 0.1 probability!"

Only Dai Yuntian had a slight smile on his lips: "One minute? It seems that Second Brother has made great progress recently and is very confident."

Dai Huabin withdrew his gesture, turned his gaze to the referee, and said in a calm tone with an undeniable arrogance: "Can we begin? I'm in a hurry."

This arrogant attitude made Huo Yuhao, who was already full of anger, tremble slightly with rage.

Dai Huabin, you just wait!

I will make you pay the price for your arrogance!
The referee looked at both sides, and after confirming that they were ready, raised his right hand high:
"Game start!"
