The Peerless Tang Sect: Heavenly Heart Douluo

Chapter 37: The Freshman Assessment Ends

Zhu Lu and Cui Yajie behind Dai Huabin both entered the state of martial spirit possession.

Two small cat ears appeared on Zhu Lu's head, and her hands grew sharp claws like Dai Huabin's. Her body appeared even more lithe and slender as she charged towards Huo Yuhao, closely following behind Dai Huabin.

After Cui Yajie released her martial soul, she seemed to have aged three or four years. Her body transformed into that of a young girl, her long pink hair became large, wavy curls, like a pink waterfall, and two long tails appeared behind her, each about a meter long.

Cui Yajie did not rush out with Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu. Her first soul ring flashed, and she activated her charm soul skill. Then she gave Huo Yuhao a flirtatious wink, which made Wang Dong'er grit her teeth in hatred.

And that was it. Following Cui Yajie's gaze, Huo Yuhao launched a mental attack that directly penetrated her mental sea, causing her to fall asleep uncomfortably.

The Enchanting Soul Skill struck the Heart Wall without causing a ripple.

Ignoring Cui Yajie who had fallen behind them, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu rushed directly to Huo Yuhao. When they were about ten meters away from Huo Yuhao, Dai Huabin's second soul ring flashed, and a blinding white light was emitted from his mouth. Then, he transformed into a ball of light and attacked Huo Yuhao.

"Hmph, White Tiger Blazing Light Wave, the same old thing that hasn't changed in ten thousand years."

Huo Yuhao's eyes remained calm and still. He held one hand in front of him, and his Heart Wall unfolded under the cover of the Soul Power Barrier, directly blocking the white light that Dai Huabin had spewed out.

Then Huo Yuhao suddenly sprang up, and with the support of his powerful physique, he appeared in front of Dai Huabin in an instant. Even Zhu Lu, who was a great soul master of agility, didn't have time to react.

Huo Yuhao pressed Dai Huabin's head down with one hand and slammed it into the ground.

The hard ground of the ring was smashed and cracked, and Dai Huabin's head looked as if it were embedded in the floor.

The blow made him see stars, but luckily Dai Huabin activated the White Tiger Protective Barrier the moment his head was pressed down, otherwise he would probably have lost his fighting ability.

However, even such a defensive soul skill of a mere hundred years could not guarantee that he would not be injured at all. When he pulled his head out of the floor, his forehead and face were covered in blood and gore.

At this moment, Zhu Lu dared not make any rash moves. After all, given Huo Yuhao's current speed, if she launched a surprise attack on him, she would probably be the one pinned to the ground.

Huo Yuhao did not launch an attack before Dai Huabin pulled his head out.

"You've got some nerve," Huo Yuhao said with a laugh. "Continue, let me see your Martial Soul Fusion Technique?"

Then, with a kick, he sent Dai Huabin flying to Zhu Lu's side. Although Dai Huabin blocked Huo Yuhao's direct attack with his arms, the force of Huo Yuhao's powerful physique still caused blood to spill from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at Zhu Lu beside him, then let out a loud tiger roar. With the roar, Dai Huabin's body swelled up again, and white fur mixed with black tiger stripes surged out of his body, making him even larger.

Zhu Lu bit her lip, her entire body enveloped in a faint black light, her form ethereal, appearing almost transparent. She lunged at Dai Huabin with outstretched arms.

Just as the two were about to embrace, Huo Yuhao's first and second spirit rings flashed simultaneously. Dai Huabin's embrace missed, and Zhu Lu rushed straight towards Huo Yuhao, who then struck her on the forehead with a palm, knocking her unconscious.

Dai Huabin stared at the scene before him in disbelief.

Huo Yuhao spoke again, saying, "It seems your Martial Soul Fusion Technique isn't very effective either."

Dai Huabin's eyes were bloodshot. He couldn't bear the insult Huo Yuhao had inflicted on him; Huo Yuhao had looked down on him so much. He roared, "Damn it! You're playing me! I'll kill you!"

With all three of his spirit rings flashing, Dai Huabin roared and activated his third spirit skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation. His body, already strengthened by the possession of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, grew even larger, his eyes radiating ferocity. He swung a claw toward Huo Yuhao's face, while simultaneously unleashing a White Tiger Blazing Light Wave from his mouth directly at Huo Yuhao's face.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's spirit ring disappeared from his feet, and his body suddenly burst out with a bright light, indicating that he had entered the state of "Second Martial Soul Possession".

Huo Yuhao neither dodged nor evaded, but instead smashed his right fist directly toward Dai Huabin's chest. Huo Yuhao took the blow head-on, but only tilted his head back slightly, without suffering any injury.

In reality, protected by the Wall of the Heart, he was immune to even physical impacts. However, in order not to appear too abnormal, Huo Yuhao pretended to be affected.

Then Dai Huabin felt his body, protected by the White Tiger Protective Barrier and the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, being struck hard by Huo Yuhao's attack.

Huo Yuhao's punch appeared unremarkable, but at the moment of impact, his right hand transformed into an iron hammer condensed from near-solid light elements. This was actually Huo Yuhao borrowing the fifth-tier spell, Sacred Iron Hammer, from Hei Yuhao using the Divine Descent Technique.

Although the power of the Divine Descent Technique was greatly reduced due to the transmission loss, it was still at the level of a fourth-tier magic, comparable to the Soul Master level in Douluo Continent. Coupled with Huo Yuhao's physical qualities, which were comparable to a Soul Master, Dai Huabin was naturally no match for it.

To outsiders, it looked like Huo Yuhao had used another powerful self-created soul skill.

Dai Huabin coughed up a mouthful of blood in disbelief, his face turning deathly pale. The ribs where Huo Yuhao had struck him were also shattered.

It felt as if I had been crushed by a thousand-year-old soul beast.

He was then sent flying backward by the immense force, falling off the stage and losing consciousness.

Everyone was a little stunned by what they saw. This battle was still consistent with Huo Yuhao's previous style. It didn't drag on for long at all, only a few minutes. They originally thought that even if Dai Huabin's team, which had a martial soul fusion skill, was defeated in this final battle, it would still be a fierce battle. But unexpectedly, it ended so hastily.

Seeing this, the referee announced loudly, "Now, I announce the final champion of the freshman elimination round: Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao's team! Let's give them a warm round of applause!"

Thunderous applause erupted from the stands. It could be said that the elimination rounds were almost entirely a solo show by Huo Yuhao, who ravaged the other teams in various ways. Although there weren't many highlights, the match ended too quickly.

However, this overwhelming power was enough to earn everyone's respect for this twelve-year-old boy. Such a person is bound to become a powerful figure in the future, famous throughout the continent, and perhaps even remembered for eternity.

Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao looked at Huo Yuhao with some resentment. After all, they had been reduced to being Huo Yuhao's sidekicks in this competition. They didn't even have the chance to use their martial souls. It was really infuriating!

"The freshman assessment has now come to an end. We hope that all students will continue to be proactive in their studies. Tomorrow morning, a freshman assembly will be held to award prizes to the top three teams and to assign freshmen to classes."
