Douluo Continent: Outwitting the Ceiling of Wisdom - Yuhao Faks His Death for Ten Thousand Years

That's why, at the moment Gu Yuena clashed with Huo Yuhao, a rapid flash of light appeared before her eyes, and the flow of time suddenly slowed down.

At the same time, she will also experience a suffocating feeling of being unable to avoid or block it, as if fate has choked her.

Her mind was violently impacted by the forced, almost desperate sense of time passing, to the point that she could barely use her mental energy, and even lost the will to resist for a moment.

And this is only half of the meaning of "time" in the power contained in "Trace of Time and Space".

"I have to say, mental power, this almost idealistic kind of power, is really too useful," Huo Yuhao concluded in his heart.

After all, the essence of "Trace of Time and Space" is still the same as "Ruling the World".

Both fall under the category of techniques that integrate powerful mental will into physical attacks, and do not actually distort or interfere with the structure of real spacetime.

While Huo Yuhao was lost in thought, Wu Changkong had already started calling out the other students from the previous class to begin one-on-one sparring.

Compared to the initial "battle of the gods" between Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena, the subsequent competitions between these ordinary first-year students were obviously much more mundane and conventional.

However, when one of Huo Yuhao's three family members was called out by Wu Changkong, the atmosphere on the playground changed once again.

"Next up, Xiao Hongchen and Wei Xiaofeng!"

Before the competition began, Wei Xiaofeng saw that Xiao Hongchen's soul power level was only four levels higher than his own, and he was quite eager to try, feeling that he still had the strength to fight.

But as soon as the battle began, before he could even see whether his opponent had revealed his spirit rings, Wu Changkong directly declared him the loser.

In the blink of an eye, the ground around him was riddled with bullet holes by dozens of miniature floating soul guides that Xiao Hongchen had summoned from who-knows-where.

Without a doubt, if those gun barrels had been pointed at him, he would have been riddled with bullets by now.

In the last group of the first round of sparring, it was Meng Hongchen and Ye Guyi's turn to take the stage.

The two were of similar strength and were family, so they were extremely restrained in their attacks during the match, aiming to have a friendly exchange that would maintain harmony within the "Yuhao Harem".

Even so, their top-tier martial souls—the Zhu Qing Ice Toad and the Holy Angel—still presented the entire class with a visual feast of frost and holy light, leaving everyone in awe.

After the first round of sparring, Wu Changkong looked at Huo Yuhao and the other four, and quickly realized that his first lesson probably couldn't provide them with any substantial guidance in terms of actual combat.

Therefore, he shifted his teaching focus to other ordinary students in the class who needed more basic training.

Therefore, before the second round of sparring began, Wu Changkong looked at Huo Yuhao and the others with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and then said very decisively:

"If you feel that staying here is a waste of time, you can go to Class One's dedicated training ground to spar with each other. There's no need to linger here; just come back during the theory class."

So, Huo Yuhao and the others nodded happily and left.

Watching their retreating figures, Wu Changkong suddenly felt a faint sense of guilt.

He secretly decided that he would definitely make time to arrange more targeted individual guidance for these five people.

As a teacher, having students who are too outstanding is sometimes not a good thing.

When students have already gone far and fast enough on their own, what more can teachers do for them?

Of course, if Wu Changkong knew that these guys were just using alternate accounts to experience life in the newbie village...

Then that guilt will probably turn into a helpless feeling of being both amused and exasperated in an instant.

……

The exclusive training ground for Class 1, Grade 1 at Donghai Academy.

For veteran players like Huo Yuhao who "use alternate accounts," finding opportunities to spar with each other is naturally very beneficial.

Otherwise, if you have too much fun in the starting village, you might ruin your newly created alt account.

After reporting to the Dean of Studies, Long Hengxu, the teacher in charge of overseeing the training grounds within the academy quickly received a reply granting Huo Yuhao and his group of five permission to use the training grounds.

Upon arriving at the training ground, Xiao Hongchen surveyed the activated soul-guiding shields around him and nodded in satisfaction.

"This place is nice. I don't have to be so restrictive anymore, and there's no one watching me."

"Yuhao, Yuhao," Meng Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao beside her with curiosity, "What do you think is the best way for us to spar with each other?"

After pondering for a moment, Huo Yuhao replied:

"One-on-one is too time-consuming, like before. How about...?"

At this point, he paused, under the curious gazes of the other four.

Then, Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, his gaze falling on the four people in turn, and continued in a slightly arrogant tone:

"...You four, come and take me on. How about it?"

Although he spoke arrogantly, for a moment, the four men were unable to utter any rebuttal.

Having spent a long time with Huo Yuhao, the Hongchen siblings and Ye Guyi naturally understood that, given his strength, saying such a thing was somewhat modest.

In Gu Yuena's eyes, Huo Yuhao was an unfathomable reincarnated god with a variety of powerful methods, so he naturally had the confidence to say such things.

"Okay." Gu Yuena responded earnestly, and the other three nodded slightly as well.

"Since that's the case, since you, Miss Gu, are not yet familiar with my three family members, why don't we take this opportunity to get to know each other better, so that we can cooperate in battle later?"

"We'll begin our sparring once you're ready."

After saying that, Huo Yuhao turned and left, leaving Hongchen and his sister, Ye Guyi and Gu Yuena standing there looking at each other.

"This is a good opportunity for Miss Silver Dragon to interact with and get to know the three of them..."

As Huo Yuhao walked towards the edge of the training field, he pondered to himself, a smile involuntarily appearing on his lips.

—To build a good relationship with this Silver Dragon King, laying the groundwork in interpersonal relationships is naturally an important part.

On the other side, Gu Yuena maintained a calm demeanor, meeting the gazes of the three people around her, but a subtle embarrassment welled up inside her.

What should I say?

She subtly observed the three people in front of her—the family members of that reincarnated deity—to see if they were as easy to get along with as he was.

Ultimately, she had only recently regained her human form a few years ago. While she wasn't completely ignorant of the subtle and implicit social interactions between humans, she was certainly not very good at them.

So, Gu Yuena herself wasn't quite sure whether her aloof and unapproachable demeanor was due to her personality or to avoid interacting too much with others...

If Huo Yuhao knew what she was thinking at that moment, he would probably suppress a laugh and say something like:

It's alright, Miss Silver Dragon. You've been "hiding" at the bottom of the Lake of Life for so long, it's no wonder you have some social anxiety now...
