Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, have a Beast Taming Space

Chapter 83 Dai Hao is furious
"what?"

Xuanzi was stunned again, thinking he had misheard.

Why would you send a level 98 Super Douluo, a senior member of the Sea God Pavilion, to listen to the commands of a second-year student from the outer academy?
"You heard that right."

Moon's tone left no room for argument.

“I know this sounds a bit… but Xuanzi, don’t you understand yet? In terms of making decisions on the spot and assessing the situation, that kid is better than you! His calmness and his judgment have already proven everything this time. Having you come along is to protect their safety and also to prevent you from making impulsive mistakes again. As for how to deal with possible changes and how to maximize the interests and safety of the team, I believe Yuhao can make the right choice.”

Looking at the changing expressions on Xuanzi's face, Mu En slowly said, "Put aside your status, put aside your seniority. On this journey to Xingluo, you will no longer be the leader, but the guardian, the sharpest blade in Yuhao's hand. Wherever he points, you will strike. Can you do that?"

Xuanzi stood still for a moment.

He bowed his head deeply again, his voice firm: "Yes! Elder Mu, I, Xuanzi, hereby swear that all actions on this planet, including those of Huo Yuhao, will be in accordance with Huo Yuhao's will! I will never act on my own again!"

This time, he genuinely accepted the arrangement.

Perhaps, as Mu said, this is his greatest value to Shrek Academy now.

"Go."

Moon closed his eyes wearily and waved his hand.

Xuanzi said no more, bowed respectfully, and strode away.

The door to the quiet room closed again.

Moon lay alone in the light and shadow, a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth revealing an indescribable complex expression.

"A thug... obeying the young man's orders... Heh, Xuanzi, I hope this time you can truly find your place. That kid Yuhao... perhaps he can bring some different changes to you, and to Shrek Academy..."

……

Star Luo Empire, Western Border, White Tiger Duke's Command Post.

Dai Hao clutched a letter tightly in his hand, an urgent letter delivered almost simultaneously by Shrek Academy and the military intelligence system. His once resolute and dignified face was now so gloomy it was almost dripping with water. His fingers, gripping the letter, trembled slightly from the excessive force, and the veins on his hands stood out.

The letter contained little information, but every word felt like a red-hot branding iron, searing his heart.

"...ambushed by evil spirit masters... Yue Heng's legs below the knees were shattered, and he suffered severe injuries to his chest and abdomen... his vital organs were damaged, and he may never recover... Chen Zifeng lost an arm and a leg... Yao Haoxuan was critically injured and on the verge of death..."

"boom--!"

Unable to contain his surging anger and overwhelming hatred any longer, Dai Hao slammed his fist into the sturdy ironwood desk in front of him!
The heavy command desk shattered with a crash, sending splinters flying. The loud noise startled the guards outside the tent.

"Shrek! This is outrageous!!"

Dai Hao's eyes were bloodshot, like a tiger that had been completely enraged. His violent soul power burst out of his body uncontrollably, squeezing the air in the general's tent so that it made a whistling sound.

"Hua Bin was just crippled by you not long ago, and now even my Yue Heng... is in this state! Are my two sons going to perish at the hands of Shrek Academy?! And Xuan Zi! What is he doing, a level 98 Super Douluo! Is he just going to watch my son be crippled by a Soul King?!"

In his rage, he even took his anger out on the entire Shrek Academy.

In his view, if Shrek hadn't led the team poorly and provided inadequate protection, his eldest son wouldn't have suffered such a disaster, and even... he would have lost his manhood!

This posed a fatal threat to the lineage of Duke White Tiger!
"Damn it! Serves me right!"

He was panting heavily, his chest heaving violently, and images of Dai Yueheng flashed through his mind from childhood to adulthood. He was the heir he had placed great hopes on, the future hope of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion!
But now...

“Commander…” The captain of the personal guard heard the commotion outside the tent and cautiously peeked in. Seeing the mess on the ground and the furious duke, he felt a chill and reluctantly reported.

"His Majesty's envoy has arrived outside the camp to inquire about... about the eldest son's situation and the specifics of the Mingdou Mountains."

Dai Hao abruptly closed his eyes, forcibly suppressing the murderous intent that was about to overwhelm his reason.

He took a few deep breaths, the veins on his forehead still throbbing, but his voice forced back to its usual calm, though with a hint of unmistakable hoarseness.

"Understood. Please wait a moment, messenger, I will go immediately."

He glanced at the broken wood scattered on the ground and waved to the captain of the guard: "Clean this up."

After saying that, he straightened his somewhat disheveled armor and robes and strode out.

In private, he could berate Shrek Academy, but in public, in front of the imperial envoys, he had to maintain the dignity of the White Tiger Duke and the superficial relationship with Shrek Academy.

After all, Shrek Academy's foundation and influence are still a force that he and the Star Luo Empire need to rely on.

However, the humiliation and resentment that were forcibly suppressed gnawed deeply at his heart like a venomous snake.

……

Meanwhile, Shrek and his group had already arrived in Star City.

As the capital of the Star Luo Empire, its prosperity is self-evident.

The wide streets were bustling with traffic, lined with shops on both sides, displaying a dazzling array of goods with local characteristics. Pedestrians thronged the streets, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere, showcasing the grandeur of the imperial capital.

But the Shrek members had no interest in appreciating the magnificent scenery of the capital.

Led by Wang Yan and Huo Yuhao, they went straight to the registration point designated by the competition, the Xingluo Hotel.

The hotel lobby was brightly lit. When the staff in charge of registration saw that the group was of a very different age, and some of them were even too young, they were taken aback.

"You are...Shrek Academy?"

The staff member looked at Wang Yan, who was in the lead, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone, and subconsciously glanced behind them.

"That's right, we are the Shrek Academy team."

Wang Yan nodded firmly with a peaceful smile on his face.

After a night of adjustment, he has accepted reality.

Since the academy isn't sending reinforcements, they'll fight to the bitter end with this lineup!

Despite their doubts, the staff quickly processed their registration, and the soul guide device next to them tested the team members' bone age one by one.

Seeing that the list was clearly dominated by younger students, the staff member hesitated for a moment, but still kindly reminded them, "Um... there's less than half a day left before the registration deadline. If your academy has any other team members..."

"Thank you, Shrek Academy. It's just the two of us in this competition."

Huo Yuhao stepped forward and smiled calmly.

After saying that, he didn't say anything more, turned around and led the team into the hotel.
