Douluo's Contract God King Huo Yuhao

Seeing the battle armor that Huo Yuhao handed to Bei Bei, the participating students all showed expressions of envy.

After Huo Yuhao exchanged a few words with the others, the atmosphere finally became less somber.

Several senior students from the inner courtyard also gathered around.

Yao Haoxuan patted Xixi on the shoulder and said jokingly:

"Xixi, do you like Yuhao? Why do you seem to be in a good mood lately, even though your spot in the main competition was taken away?"

Upon hearing this, Xixi stammered and couldn't speak. Seeing that everyone's gazes were becoming increasingly strange and that they were about to misunderstand, she finally took out a set of battle armor.

Seeing that Xixi was wearing a full set of One-Word Battle Armor, Yao Haoxuan and the others immediately understood everything.

Let them choose; they'd be quite willing to exchange a regular spot for a set of One-Word Battle Armor.

That's a battle armor that can be enhanced up to level 70, which is superior to ordinary ten-thousand-year soul bones. Moreover, it can also be used to get closer to Huo Yuhao.

If Huo Yuhao ever has the time, and we prepare the materials so he can help us improve it into a two-word battle armor, that would be a huge win.

Seeing this, Yao Haoxuan immediately moved closer to Elder Xuan and shamelessly said:

"Elder Xuan, look, Junior Brother Beibei now has battle armor, and his strength is definitely a bit stronger than mine. Why don't you consider making me a backup option as well?"

With Yao Haoxuan taking the lead, Gongyang Mo followed suit, and even the usually aloof Ling Luochen expressed his agreement.

This infuriated Xuanzi. Shrek Academy's millennia-old honor was actually no match for Battle Armor in the eyes of these kids.

Seeing that Xuanzi's face was turning red with anger, Yan Shaozhe quickly came over to persuade him.

"Don't be too angry, old man. If I were young back then, and you asked me to trade a spot in an exhibition match for a set of battle armor that would allow me to fight level 70 opponents at level 50, I might not have been able to resist the temptation."

Yan Shaozhe originally valued Shrek Academy's ten-thousand-year honor as much as Xuanzi did, until he saw the amplification effect of Huo Yuhao's battle armor with his own eyes, and he instantly understood.

When everyone else can beat you at level 70 when they're level 50, and beat you at level 90 when they're level 70, why bother with honor? Practicality is the most important thing.

After all, no matter how much Yan Shaozhe cares about his reputation, he's really going to get beaten up now.

Ever since Qian Duoduo equipped himself with a set of two-word battle armor, Yan Shaozhe has never won against him in sparring, yet Qian Duoduo still comes to spar with him all the time.

Xuanzi heard Yan Shaozhe's words and wanted to argue, but ultimately couldn't come up with any reason.

He could only angrily say to Yao Haoxuan:

"Okay, then you can switch with Beibei. But since you're doing this voluntarily, let's skip the compensation."

Upon hearing this, Yao Haoxuan immediately became serious.

"Elder Xuan, what are you saying? It has always been my dream to fight for the academy's eternal honor, and I would never give up this honor."

In an instant, the surroundings were filled with a joyful atmosphere, which made Huo Yuhao laugh. This was truly a master of changing faces.

"Alright, stop joking. The journey is still long, so we need to speed things up. Let Shao Zhe and I give you a ride."

Huo Yuhao decisively chose Yan Shaozhe; the experience of Xuanzi leading the group was like a rollercoaster ride.

Although he could keep up with the speed of a Title Douluo, his soul power consumption could not be replenished by the soul core, making him somewhat lacking for long-distance travel.

The students from the inner courtyard had already chosen Yan Shaozhe, while the remaining students from the outer courtyard, who hadn't realized what was happening, got a free, extremely long ride on a roller coaster without seatbelts.

As the group drew closer to the Mingdou Mountains, dozens of figures became clearly visible.

On the only road leading from the academy to the Mingdou Mountains, a middle-aged man stood with dozens of soldiers.

Huo Yuhao had already detected their location through mental detection, and immediately activated his battle armor, flying towards that direction with Yan Shaozhe.

Xuanzi disliked these things, and after putting down the group of students, he concealed himself.

"Thank you all for coming to help us wipe out this evil soul master organization. I am Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger, and this is my garrison."

"This must be Dean Yan of Shrek Academy, and this must be Yuhao next to him."

Hearing Dai Hao's somewhat respectful words, Yan Shaozhe casually replied.

"I am no longer the dean, but I think it would be better if you addressed Yuhao as the heir of the Sea God Pavilion, Duke White Tiger."

Dai Hao felt slightly embarrassed upon hearing this and quickly explained to Huo Yuhao.

"I didn't mean anything by it. I know nothing about your mother's affairs, and I didn't even know you existed."

Huo Yuhao immediately interrupted Dai Hao's remaining words.

"Hold on, Duke White Tiger. I believe that as the heir to the Sea God Pavilion, I am fully qualified to be your equal."

"If you say that, I can take it as a provocation against the Sea God Pavilion."

"Furthermore, I've made it very clear that from now on, there is only one possibility: Huo Yuhao, the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion."

"I have also ordered the relevant personnel of the Star Luo Empire to move my mother's tombstone to Shrek City."

Upon hearing this, Dai Hao could only apologize and then slunk away.

Dai Yueheng, who was mixed in with the trainees, silently shed tears. From the moment Dai Hao greeted them until he left, he hadn't given Dai Yueheng a single glance.

Dai Yueheng knew that she had been completely abandoned, and that Dai Hao was avoiding her to prevent Huo Yuhao from becoming dissatisfied.

Dai Yueheng repeatedly told herself that as the highest-ranking general of the Star Luo Empire, it was understandable for Dai Hao to avoid suspicion from her for the sake of the overall situation.

But seeing her mother on the verge of death and her father no longer caring about her, Dai Yueheng couldn't bear it any longer.

How tragic it is that one's own father wants to avoid suspicion from one's child.

Watching Dai Hao walk away, Dai Yueheng seemed to have finally made up his mind, and a special look appeared in his eyes.

He refused to let his life end quietly in some corner of the future; even if he had to die, he wanted to die a worthy death.

Then, Huo Yuhao, who had just received the Mingdou Mountain Range map from the soldier, felt a warning from the power of fate.

Something about the evil Soul Master Soul King of the Fifth Ring whom I am about to face is not quite right.

Huo Yuhao had previously thought that it was because Xuanzi was too careless and underestimated his opponent that the strongest Soul King in history caused serious damage to the main team and escaped from the hands of the level 98 Super Douluo.

But just now, Huo Yuhao, with the help of his powerful spiritual energy and the power of destiny, discovered that there was a divine sense in this mountain range. Although it was very weak, it was indeed divine sense.

"This messenger of death probably does have some connection with the Grim Reaper, but it hasn't been revealed because he's completely outmatched by Ira. In that case, could we try to obtain that divine power?"

Huo Yuhao thought to himself, and then entered his spiritual sea to discuss the matter with Ilex, Xue Di, and other soul spirits.

Upon hearing this, Electrolux immediately seized the time to tutor Huo Yuhao, teaching him several simple necromancy spells overnight.
