Good heavens, how could there be such a father in the world! And the Duchess is so wicked, treating you and your son so poorly.”

For a moment, she felt sorry for Huo Yuhao.

The others looked at Huo Yuhao with increasing sympathy; they hadn't expected such a peerless genius to have such an experience.

Jing Hongchen walked to Huo Yuhao's side, patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder, and said, "Yuhao, I didn't expect you to have such an experience. Go ahead and do it. I and the other two level nine soul masters will support you."

Such a person doesn't deserve to be a father. Let's expose Dai Hao's true colors to everyone at Xingluo Square.

Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Okay."

To be honest, in the Duke's mansion, apart from Huo Yun'er, the only people who were good to Huo Gua in the original story were Dai Luoli's mother. As for the others, they were actually quite bad to Huo Gua.

Having taken over this body, he was now bound by cause and effect, and naturally he intended to attack some of the Duke's men, causing them to lose face.

As for Dai Huabin, according to the information he had gathered during this period, the Duchess had fainted several times from crying because of Dai Huabin's death.

It can only be said that, due to the butterfly effect, the number of people killed by the Grim Reaper has increased. I wonder whose subordinate this is, that he is so brave. Even the level 98 Super Douluo Xuanzi was severely humiliated. He is indeed the strongest Soul King on Earth.

As for safety, judging from the original work, even if he didn't want to acknowledge Dai Hao as his father, Dai Hao wouldn't harm him, his "son." Moreover, he had the Sun and Moon people secretly protecting him, so he could talk to Dai Hao with peace of mind.

......

On the city wall, Dai Hao sat in a chair, gazing into the distance. Dai Huabin's death had caused him great psychological trauma. Although his son was sometimes impulsive, he was still one of his three sons and a continuation of his bloodline.

Xu Jiawei, sitting to the side, asked with a smile, "Dai Hao, do you think the Xingluo team can win the championship today?"

Dai Hao was taken aback for a moment, then came to his senses and said, "Your Majesty, such matters can only be known after both sides have fought a battle. My predictions are not valid."

As someone who has led troops for many years, Dai Hao knows that the battlefield is ever-changing, and the Soul Fighting Tournament is no exception.

Of course, if it weren't for his particularly good relationship with Xu Jiawei, he would never have said such a thing. Instead, he would have chosen to shout "Xingluo will surely win!" like the other ministers in order to please Xu Jiawei.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei did not blame Dai Hao. A faint smile appeared on his face: "In my opinion, the Star Luo team has a very high chance of winning. Based on the trump cards that the Sun Moon team has revealed during this period, I have made some special arrangements for the Star Luo team, in order to take down the Sun Moon team in one fell swoop."

"Dai Hao, you'll see the surprise I've prepared for them in a moment."

After saying that, Xu Jiawei stared at the competition stage: "Now we just need to wait for both teams to enter the arena. I'm looking forward to seeing Jiu Jiu lead the team to victory over Ri Yue."

.....

Soon, both the Star Luo team and the Sun and Moon team entered the competition area, and the audience cheered wildly, "Star Luo will win!"

Actually, at the beginning of this Soul Fighting Tournament, many people were prepared to cheer "Shrek will win" during the finals.

Although the vast majority of the audience at Xingluo Square are Xingluo people, if they were asked to choose between supporting the Xingluo team and supporting the Shrek team, they would definitely choose Shrek.

Shrek Academy, through its formidable strength and enduring influence, has successfully imprinted its glorious image in everyone's mind. Even Xu Tianran, who became emperor later in the original story, expressed his desire to experience campus life at the Shrek Academy he had always longed for.

It should be noted that Xu Tianran, as the Emperor of the Sun and Moon, launched a war that swept across the Douluo Continent, making him an enemy of Shrek Academy in a sense. Yet, even so, he remains a spiritual Shrek alumnus.

Wake up! You're the emperor of an empire, and you're actually worshipping Shrek Academy? You've been brainwashed!

On the competition stage.

Since the competition had not yet started, Huo Yuhao looked at the top of the imperial city. He took out a pure white megaphone and put it to his mouth. This was a soul tool used to amplify his voice.

He said, "I am Huo Yuhao from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Now, I am speaking to Dai Hao."

His voice was calm, but there was an inexplicable power within it that made people unconsciously quiet down.

For a moment, the audience area was completely silent. Whatever they had been doing just now, their attention was now drawn to Huo Yuhao.

Dai Hao is undoubtedly a high-ranking and powerful figure in the Star Luo Empire, yet this contestant from the Sun and Moon faction is now speaking to Dai Hao.

Even Xu Jiawei, standing atop the imperial city wall, couldn't help but focus his gaze on Huo Yuhao. Without turning his head, he asked, "Dai Hao, do you know this Huo Yuhao?"

Dai Hao shook his head and replied, "Your Majesty, there is absolutely no such thing. This is the first time I have met this young man. To me, he is a stranger. Perhaps this young man has seen me somewhere before."

Huo Yuhao continued, "I was born in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. My mother is Huo Yun'er, and my biological father is Dai Hao. Of course, in my opinion, Dai Hao is not worthy of being a father at all, so I do not acknowledge him as my father and chose to take my mother's surname, Huo."

These words caused an uproar, and all the audience members had expressions that said, "I want to watch this drama unfold."

Dai Hao's expression changed drastically. He immediately stood up, looked at Huo Yuhao, and said loudly, "What? You say you are Yun'er's child? How is that possible? Yun'er and I don't have any children."

"No children?" Huo Yuhao took out the White Tiger Dagger. "Dai Hao, look at this."

With Dai Hao's strength, he could clearly see the dagger in Huo Yuhao's hand. He was stunned for a moment and murmured, "That's the White Tiger Dagger I gave to Yun'er. How did you get this... Could you really be my child?"

Chapter 84 The Infamous Dai Hao

Huo Yuhao said, "Dai Hao, you probably don't care about my mother at all. You don't even know you have a son, and I have to stand up and remind you."

Dai Hao's expression was somewhat complicated: "But... no one has ever told me that Yun'er gave birth to my child. I've been deceived."

Yuhao, you are still my son. Change your surname back to Dai and return to the Duke's mansion.

Yun'er has always been the woman I deeply love. As the fruit of our love, I will definitely treat you well.

Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, "Being deceived? You, a commander who leads troops into battle, are you so easily deceived? In my opinion, you deliberately ignored my mother."

As for changing back to the surname Dai and returning to the Duke's mansion, I think we should skip that.

Moreover, your so-called deep love is fake. If you truly loved her, why didn't you give her a proper title? She was merely a maid! Do you know that she loved you until the moment she died?

You are a nobleman, don't you know what the status of a maid means?

You wouldn't even give me a concubine's place! And you have the nerve to say you deeply love my mother? Pah! You disgust me!

Upon hearing this, Dai Hao remained silent for a moment, then closed his eyes in anguish and said, "Yuhao, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I'm sorry to Yun'er, I'm sorry to you."

At this moment, the audience was in an uproar. They hadn't expected to see such a thrilling scene before the final, which was far more exciting than the final itself.

Who is Dai Hao? He is the dignified Duke of White Tiger. In the Star Luo Empire, countless people want to curry favor with Dai Hao. Yet, even such a big shot has to admit his mistakes.

Furthermore, many people enjoy gossiping, and viewers are very interested in the family affairs of a prominent figure like Dai Hao.

However, some viewers started discussing it at this moment.

"Since Huo Yuhao is the son of the White Tiger Duke, he should be a Star Luo person, so why is he a contestant for the Sun and Moon? Isn't this a betrayal of Star Luo?"

The people we should admire are those like Duke Baihu, loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Putting aside the facts, was Huo Yuhao completely without fault in terms of Duke Baihu's personal conduct?

Huo Yuhao knew it was normal for him to be seen as a traitor, but he still cleared his throat and said, "I know many people question my current identity. In fact, my life in the Duke's mansion has been worse than death..."

He then began to recount the series of bad things the Duchess and her son had done to Huo Yun'er and her son.

After a while, most viewers began to look at Huo Yuhao with pity, after all, judging from Huo Yuhao's description, the life of this mother and son in the Duke's mansion was worse than that of servants.

For such a young child, living under the Duchess's oppression every day, it's quite normal to want to escape to another place.

The only place that cannot be affected by the Duchess's power is the Sun and Moon Empire.

Some viewers also started discussing it.

“That despicable Dai Huabin, I’ll definitely spit on his grave the next time I pass by it.”

"How dare you say such a thing! You're asking for it!"

At this moment, Dai Hao's body was trembling slightly. He had opened his eyes and his eyes reddened after hearing about Huo Yun'er and Huo Yuhao's tragic experiences in the Duke's mansion over the years.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry to Yun'er and you."

As he spoke, he glanced at Dai Yueheng nearby, "Yueheng, you also know about Yuhao's existence?"

Dai Yueheng was silent for a while, then said, "I know, Father... However, he looks very different now. If he hadn't revealed his identity, I wouldn't have recognized him."

Dai Hao flew into a rage and kicked Dai Yueheng to the ground. "Since you knew, why didn't you tell me? Do you still consider me your father? You bastard! If I had known about Yuhao's existence earlier, how could I have let his mother and son suffer like this?"

Huo Yuhao sneered, "Enough, Dai Hao, stop pretending!"

Since I was born, I have never seen you come looking for your mother. Even if you don't think you and your mother have any children, don't you love her deeply?

My mother died when I was ten years old. After her death, I stayed at the Duke's mansion for another year. That means I haven't seen you come to see my mother once in the past ten years. If you had met her during this time, she would definitely have told you about my existence!

As the Duke of White Tiger, you are the absolute authority in the Duke's mansion. Although you are very busy, would you be so busy that you can't see your mother even once in ten years?

Although the Duchess later banished your mother to the woodshed on the grounds of a contagious disease, if you truly loved her, wouldn't you have checked on her condition when you returned to the mansion?

Ten years. Do you know how your mother spent those ten years?

The usually eloquent Dai Hao was speechless in front of Huo Yuhao, and a look of guilt appeared on his face.

The audience was stunned.

"Dai Hao, the number one scumbag in Xingluo, hasn't contacted Huo Yuhao's mother for ten years. He turns his back on her after he's done with her. No wonder Huo Yuhao ran away from the Duke's mansion. If it were me, I would have run away too. This scumbag father is truly outrageous."

"Yeah, I never expected Duke White Tiger to be this kind of person. Ladies, keep your eyes open in the future and stay away from men with this kind of personality! After the competition, I'll go back and spread rumors about Dai Hao's scumbag behavior!"

Xu Jiawei's face was rather grim at this moment. From today onwards, Dai Hao's reputation was ruined.

For someone leading troops into battle, reputation is very important. A person with a bad reputation leading troops into battle will affect the morale of the army.

From an outsider's perspective, Dai Hao is firstly incapable of managing his family, and secondly, despite constantly claiming to deeply love someone, he hasn't seen that person for ten years and doesn't even visit them when they are sick, making him a truly hypocritical and despicable person.

Although Xu Jiawei felt that Dai Hao was not that kind of person, some outsiders might not think so.

Xu Jiawei said to Huo Yuhao, "Yuhao, Dai Hao did make some mistakes, but no matter what, you are father and son. Regardless of the outcome of this competition, are you willing to stay in Xingluo and serve the empire?"

I know you feel that the Star Luo Empire is a place filled with bad memories.

However, if you feel that Xingluo is not good, you should stay and help build it. I know that you were a Sun and Moon person in the Sun and Moon region, but now that you are in Xingluo, you can also be a Xingluo person!

He also wanted to salvage Dai Hao's reputation, so as long as Huo Yuhao was willing to come back and reconcile with Dai Hao, he was confident that he could create an image of Dai Hao as a prodigal son who had returned home.

Huo Yuhao was stunned, not expecting Xu Jiawei to say such a thing. He shook his head and refused: "Your Majesty, no matter where I am, I am a citizen of the Sun and Moon."

To be honest, he didn't have a good impression of Xu Jiawei because the Duchess was Xu Jiawei's daughter. Although, in theory, Dai Hao's wife should be from the Zhu family, the original novel did say at the beginning that the Duchess was the most favored daughter of the current Xingluo Emperor.

If it weren't for the Star Luo royal family as her maternal home, the Duchess wouldn't be so arrogant.

Chapter 85 War Star Luo

This setup resulted in Xu Jiawei and Dai Hao being not only ruler and subject, but also good brothers, and father-in-law and son-in-law.

Xu Jiawei felt somewhat helpless upon hearing these words.

He thought to himself that since Huo Yuhao could become a member of the Sun Moon team, it meant that the other party had excellent talent. If he could win him over, the Star Luo would have another powerful figure in a few years.

Unfortunately, the other party declined my invitation.

However, this is normal. Having struggled to survive under the oppression of his own daughter since childhood, he harbors resentment towards her, towards the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, and even dislikes the Star Luo Empire. This is only natural.

Xu Jiawei can understand.
