Douluo: Start by taking control of the Holy Spirit Church Saint

"Why don't you report the crime? Then go find the culprit?"

"What? That woman jumped from the building? We were just talking about it, and we are still helping her find the culprit! Why are you so depressed?"

……

Cui Yajie was shocked when she saw him the next day. It was the first time she saw Huo Yuhao with this expression. His original elegance and indifference had long disappeared, replaced by bloodthirsty and brutal excitement.

Xie Huanyue only glanced at Huo Yuhao once and then turned his head away, shielding his eyes with the brim of his straw hat. He and Huo Yuhao had been together for several months, and there were some things that didn't need to be said.

Cui Yajie once again noticed Gou Luanshi who was not far behind Cheng Zhang'an and the other two in the waiting zone. At this time, half of this guy's body was hidden in the darkness, and half of his face revealed a weird smile.

Today, there were many more people on the viewing platform in the assessment area than yesterday. The competition had not yet started, but it was already full of people. What was a little strange was that in the center of the platform, there was a space of about three square meters. An old man with messy white hair and torn clothes sat there, with his bare feet resting on the guardrail of the platform, holding a large purple gourd and drinking wine. There were also a few fragrant roasted chicken legs on oil paper next to him, and he also held a chicken leg in his hand, drinking wine and meat, and eating happily.

Those who were able to go up to the platform to watch the battle were all teachers or elders of Shrek Academy. No one approached the old man, and no one dared to question him.

"Mr. Xuan, you are here." Wang Yan, who had arrived here earlier, walked respectfully to the sloppy old man and greeted him in a low voice.

"Hmm..." The old man just snorted and continued to eat and drink.

Wang Yan quickly pointed to the audience and said, "The three young men I mentioned are over there. Yesterday..." He was naturally referring to Wang Dong's team which had performed well.

He had just said this when Old Xuan waved the chicken drumstick in his hand impatiently and said, "I can see it myself!"

"Yes." Seeing this, Wang Yan didn't dare to say anything more and stepped aside obediently.

The competition for the top eight to the semi-finals of the freshman assessment knockout round has officially begun.

The playing area has been expanded again, with eight wide fields starting games at the same time.

Huo Yuhao and his team's opponent this time was a team from the same class. Mu Jin had informed Huo Yuhao and his team in advance and told the two teams to fight to the end after they had given their best performances.

As the three opponents entered the venue, they lined up horizontally. Standing in the middle was the monitor of Class 9, Cheng Zhang'an, who had the golden white-eyed wolf spirit.

“Huo Yuhao, you guys should be careful when you attack us later, don’t go too hard on our classmates again…”

Cheng Zhang'an still had a warm smile on his face, but his words were suggestive.

“Oh? A guy who doesn’t follow the rules when using soul guides, what rules do you want me to follow with him?” Huo Yuhao laughed instead of getting angry and responded sarcastically.

"I have always been fair and just. Any conflicts and misunderstandings can be resolved, right?" Changzhangan spread his hands and pretended to be generous, "Don't say anything careless..."

“He’s still as biased as ever.” Huo Yuhao shook his head. “That dog has found a good master.”

"Maliciously insulting classmates is not a good behavior." Cheng Zhangan also shook his head and sighed.

"Bah! I feel like they are innocent in these troubled times, yet you're so harsh with them in just one game!" Gu Xiaoli on the side couldn't help it and scolded harshly.

"There is no point in talking more. Let's see the result with our actions." Pei Xiaoqi is not an argumentative person, but his attitude says it all.

"Both sides have announced their names and are ready for the competition!" Seeing that the two sides were not seeing eye to eye, the supervising teacher had to remind them in a deep voice.

"Huo Yuhao."

"Evil Phantom Moon."

"Cui Yajie."

"Growth An."

"Gu Xiaoli."

"Pei Xiaoqi."

Before the clash between the two sides began, the expressions of Huo Yuhao and the other two changed slightly.

Two purple and one black soul rings with a ratio beyond the limit floated up from under the feet of Cheng Zhang'an, who was in the lead. Gu Xiaoli beside him had three soul rings, one yellow and two purple. Pei Xiaoqi was not ordinary either. His one yellow and one purple configuration also broke the limit of the second soul ring.

The colors of the three people's spirit rings immediately caused a burst of exclamations, because just yesterday, Gu Xiaoli was clearly only a two-ring great spirit master.

Two Soul Masters and one Great Soul Master, this is quite an explosive existence in the entire new team!

On the other hand, Huo Yuhao's side changed the usual lineup. Cui Yajie, who had always been inconspicuous, stood at the front, while Huo Yuhao and Xie Huanyue each swept on one side.

Cui Yajie was the first to complete the spirit possession. Previously, due to the influence of Huo Yuhao's simulated spirit skills, she had never shown the real number and color of spirit rings in the competition. Many people thought that she was just a nine-tailed fox spirit master with a normal spirit ring ratio after just transferring to another class.

A circle of black soul rings emerged first, followed by another circle of black soul rings, and then, the red soul ring that shocked the entire audience finally rose slowly for the first time in the game.

"Ten, one hundred thousand year soul ring!"

If Xiao Cui doesn't show off her power, do you think she is a puppy? Collect and read, thank you readers who like this book!

Chapter 69: They Were Completely Broken

A hundred thousand year soul ring?

Including the old man holding the chicken leg, all the Shrek Academy faculty and staff on the platform and the freshmen in the assessment area stood up with extremely rich expressions.

A three-ring soul master actually possesses a hundred thousand year soul ring!

They originally thought that the fact that a Soul Master had four soul rings of ten thousand years each was already beyond their expectations, but they did not expect that the unknown girl in Huo Yuhao's team actually had such a hidden skill.

The three people on the opposite side, Cheng Zhang'an, felt the pressure brought by the 100,000-year spirit ring, and for the first time, they felt a little dread and even fear in their hearts, but they still maintained a glimmer of luck, perhaps this was another gimmick created by Huo Yuhao's simulation skills? After all, according to common sense, a spirit master with three rings could not possibly cross levels and absorb a 100,000-year spirit ring.

“Master Xuan, what is going on…” It was also the first time that Wang Yan noticed Huo Yuhao’s team. Previously, his attention had always been on Wang Dong. The four-ringed Evil Illusion Moon was already a well-known special existence. Regardless of whether his teammates were a burden or not, it was indeed not difficult for a team led by a Soul Sect to break into the top eight or even the top four.

What if his teammates are also amazing? Then this freshman assessment will be a complete team performance show!

Wang Yan didn't even dare to look at Huo Yuhao, the only one among the three of them who had maintained one ring. Could this guy, who might have been hiding until now, have some incredible abilities?

"This year's class of freshmen is indeed a rare spectacle in thousands of years!" Old Xuan's expression became solemn for the first time. Not only did two monsters with four-ring and several soul ring ratios that exceeded their age limit appear, but even a hundred thousand year soul ring had jumped out. With his eyesight, he didn't even need to check it carefully. He could feel the oppressive feeling of the hundred thousand year level just by sensing it.

Both sides in the field immediately took action. Cheng Zhang'an was instantly possessed by the martial spirit, and the first soul ring lit up, with the first soul skill, the golden body.

Even though his martial soul belongs to the wolf type that is more sensitive to attack, his first soul skill increases his defense to an extremely terrifying level. Ordinary second-ring strong attack spirit masters cannot break his defense at all.

At the same time, his second soul ring lit up, and his second soul skill, Wolf King Taunt, was a mental soul skill that disrupted the enemy's attack target and could transfer all of the opponent's locked attack targets to himself.

Xie Huanyue had already rushed over impatiently, using his first and second soul skills at the same time. A large amount of steam emerged from the surface of his red skin. He swung his hand and instantly punched Cheng Zhang'an in the chest, causing him to retreat several steps.

Feeling the burning pain in his chest, Cheng Zhangan finally experienced the terrifying attack power of a four-ringed strong attack spirit master.

"First soul skill, virtual and real shadows." Seeing that Chang An's defense was not enough to resist Xie Huanyue's attack, Gu Xiaoli also activated her soul skill. Her martial soul, the Golden Hammer, turned out to be a pair of sledgehammers, which was particularly eye-catching when swung by a delicate girl like her.

She was seen swinging a sledgehammer, and three illusory rays of light fell from the hammer on the three of them. The figures of the three people gradually became blurred. Obviously, this was an auxiliary soul skill, which could greatly increase the dodge ability of the team, allowing Chengzhang'an, who was a taunt unit, to evade some of the attacks that could not be resisted to the greatest extent.

However, this is completely ineffective in the face of Huo Yuhao's spiritual detection sharing.

"Rubber—hit randomly!" Xie Huanyue rushed forward again. He stretched out his limbs at will and punched at an extremely fast speed, giving people the illusion of being attacked by countless fists.

“Don’t even think about it!” Pei Xiaoqi shouted angrily. As the controlling soul master in the team who was responsible for restraining the opponent’s close combat soul masters, he must not let Xie Huanyue unleash all of his attacks.

His martial soul is a claw-type weapon soul, Ghost Claw. When his second soul skill is activated, a myriad of poisons devour the heart.

Several purple-blue rays of light shot out from the tips of Pei Xiaoqi's claws. Once the light hit the skin, the poison would instantly spread throughout the body, paralyzing and poisoning the person, leaving him or her with no strength to fight.

“Amaterasu!” How could Huo Yuhao use his control skills on Xie Huanyue? He immediately gathered his soul power in his left eye and ignited a dark wave of fire directly in front of Xie Huanyue, swallowing up and burning all the light shot out from Pei Xiaoqi’s claws.

Xie Huanyue's random punches finally hit Cheng Zhang'an's body. The extraordinary attack power of the Four-Ring Soul Sect almost destroyed his body that had been strengthened by the first soul skill, and the whole person flew backwards.

"Save Chang'an!" Gu Xiaoli saw his teammates being hit and shouted to Pei Xiaoqi urgently.

"First soul skill, the healing hand." Pei Xiaoqi did not dare to delay. He flashed behind Cheng Zhang'an and patted his back with both hands to stop his body from flying backwards. A strong breath of life enveloped the latter, and his bloody chest recovered to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“There’s actually a healing soul master!” Huo Yuhao had a surprised expression, but his hands did not slow down at all. He held the soul-slaying sword and chopped towards Chang An and the other two.

Not far away, Gu Xiaoli swung his double hammers, and the second soul ring immediately lit up, "Second soul skill, mass chaos!"

Xie Huanyue, who was about to move forward, suddenly felt dizzy. Huo Yuhao’s mental sharing was interrupted, and everyone in his field of vision turned into Cheng Zhang’an. For a moment, he could not tell where the latter was, so he could only punch randomly.

“Damn it!” Huo Yuhao suddenly felt a gust of evil wind coming towards him. It was Xie Huanyue’s random fist. He had no choice but to raise the Soul-Slaying Sword to block it. He was knocked back several meters.

Among the three of them, Xie Huanyue's spiritual power cultivation is undoubtedly the lowest. Once the spiritual sharing is forcibly interrupted, the control-type spiritual skills will have a considerable restraint on him.

"The first soul skill, multiple body charm." Cui Yajie used the evolved charm soul skill for the first time. Amid the rising clouds, countless Gu Xiaoli, showing both anger and joy, appeared naked in front of Cheng An and the other two.

Even the referee on the side couldn't help but shed a runny nose.

Cheng Zhang was so engrossed in watching that he was completely unaware that Huo Yuhao had already approached him and swung his sword. The sharp Soul-Slaying Sword immediately cut a shallow gash on his chest. Feeling the pain, he leaned against Pei Xiaoqi behind him and retreated repeatedly, allowing Pei Xiaoqi to continue using his first soul skill to heal his wound.

Cui Yajie raised her palms and took the opportunity to activate her second soul skill, Mie Sha Hui Gu. Several bone spurs shot out from her palms, forcing Gu Xiaoli to swing her hammer to block. Her second soul skill was forcibly interrupted.

Huo Yuhao was not idle either. Relying on the instant step skill brought to him by the Death God Martial Spirit, he made a big circle and came to the rear of Pei Xiaoqi. As long as this healing soul master was still there, Cheng Zhang'an would be able to continue to recover from his injuries and withstand their attacks.

clang!

Pei Xiaoqi had no way to avoid it, so he held the ghost claws across his body as a blocking move, and took Huo Yuhao's concentrated slash head-on. The ghost claws on the backs of his hands broke with a sound.

Pei Xiaoqi's martial soul was injured and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His expression instantly became listless and he was grabbed by Chang An and turned around.

Then he saw Xie Huanyue’s fist as big as a sandbag.

With a flash of light, the supervising teacher pulled Pei Xiaoqi, who was unable to fight anymore, out. If Pei Xiaoqi allowed Xie Huanyue's fists to hit him like raindrops, he would be badly injured if not killed.

"Third soul skill, golden counter-shock!"

As Pei Xiaoqi's body was pulled away, Xie Huanyue's attack naturally fell back on Chang Zhang'an, forcing him to use his third soul skill which consumed the most energy.

The fist hit Cheng Zhang'an, and at the same time, the reaction force came back to himself with a doubled force, causing Xie Huanyue to fly backwards.

This skill is actually a magical skill for rebounding attacks.

Just when Cheng Zhang'an was in danger of being attacked by Huo Yuhao and Xie Huanyue, Gu Xiaoli was also entangled by Cui Yajie who had activated her third soul skill, the Fairy Fox Armor. Her only offensive third soul skill, the Thousand Jin Force, was completely useless against Cui Yajie who was fighting in close combat with the armor on.

This is the absolute gap between a ten thousand year soul skill and a hundred thousand year soul skill!

No one would have thought that Chengzhang'an's team was actually a combination of one defense, one control, and one support. Without a strong attacking spirit master, they actually didn't have very strong attacking means. But with their exquisite cooperation and Chengzhang'an's unstoppable taunting dominance, countless new teams could only be defeated miserably in their hands.

The match had only just begun when Cheng Zhangan and his friends had already revealed all their cards. If they were facing an ordinary freshman, they could have worn their opponent to death with the taunts of the golden body and Gu Xiaoli's crowd control, but Xie Huanyue and Huo Yuhao's attack power was too high. One was pure supreme striking power, and the other relied on the indestructible sharpness of the weapon spirit.

It has to be said that Cheng Daan's team was indeed extremely good in coordination, but unfortunately, their opponents were far beyond their capabilities and their defense was directly broken.

The battle finally came to an end. Cheng Zhang'an could no longer withstand Xie Huanyue's desperate and crazy beating. His solid golden body was finally broken by a huge punch from Xie Huanyue's third soul skill, Bone Ball, and his skin was torn into pieces and bleeding.

Everyone gasped as they looked at Cheng Zhang'an's miserable state. Even Gu Xiaoli, who was the least injured, was grabbed by Cui Yajie's calf, swung up and slammed to the ground. Finally, he was thrown out like a broken sack and was caught in the arms of Xuan Lao who flashed over.

"How could you kids be so reckless when you attacked?" Old Xuan carefully examined Gu Xiaoli in his arms and found that the latter had multiple fractures. He immediately muttered in dissatisfaction.

These supporting characters will also have certain arrangements in the future plots. If they are just small fry, I will just pass them by as I did before. With their talents, they will definitely be able to enter the inner courtyard in the future. As for what role they will play at that time, please look forward to the later plots!

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 70 I, Huo Yuhao, have never betrayed

Huo Yuhao had already recognized this person's identity, so he stepped forward and bowed to him.

"In order to rank higher in the competition, we had to go all out. I hope Master Xuan will not blame us for our lack of judgment."

Old Xuan looked at him meaningfully. He was also a shrewd man. He had been here since the beginning of the game. How could he not have heard the verbal confrontation between Huo Yuhao and Cheng Zhang'an's team at the beginning?

"Don't do it again, otherwise, hmph! Come here, little girl, let me see your third spirit ring."

Huo Yuhao and his companions immediately realized that it was obvious that Elder Xuan was attracted by Cui Yajie's talent. In addition, Xie Huanyue had a high status in the hearts of Shrek's top management, so they did not delve into the heavy-handed approach taken by Huo Yuhao's team in the competition.

“This old man asked about the origin of your spirit ring. Remember to explain it to him according to what I taught you.” Huo Yuhao sent a message to Cui Yajie beside him.

Cui Yajie nodded calmly, and for the first time, she felt a little disgusted with the academy. She had originally prepared to take responsibility for the mistakes with Huo Yuhao, but she didn't expect that the result would be just as Huo Yuhao said. The academy didn't bother with them because of their potential.

What if the outcome of both sides was reversed? If they were replaced by Chang An's group, and suffered heavy losses in the game but did not get the explanation they wanted, how would they feel at that time?

Those who are worth cultivating are really kept, and those who are not worth cultivating are casually abandoned. Shrek's fine tradition: only cultivate monsters, not ordinary people!

Cui Yajie, who was called over by Master Xuan, began to tell the story that Huo Yuhao taught her under a series of questioning: when she was hunting for the third soul ring, she happened to encounter a nine-tailed fox that had failed to survive the tribulation after 190,000 years. Unwilling to see its life come to an end, it chose to transform into Cui Yajie's third soul ring, and the overflowing soul power was evenly distributed to her first and second soul rings, resulting in her unique soul ring combination of two black and one red.

Cui Yajie explained, and Master Xuan was stunned. If she hadn't concealed anything, he could only say that he was possessed by the god of luck. However, he had to report this situation to the Sea God Pavilion in a timely manner. The academy would never allow such a promising demon to wander around!

At the same time, the academy also learned about the current situation of Huo Yuhao's team and was immediately put in an awkward situation.

A team consisting of a four-ring martial spirit of an unknown ancient beast and a three-ring spirit ring of a hundred thousand years, as long as they don't encounter a martial spirit fusion technique performed by two soul masters with three or more rings, even if they bring a real burden of only one ring, they can easily kill in the competition.

Therefore, the semi-finals of the freshman assessment for the top four were forced to be stopped, and all freshmen were allowed to rest for a day. The next round of semi-finals would only begin after the academy came up with a solution to the special needs of Huo Yuhao's team.

Listening to the report on the radio, all the students in the assessment area turned their eyes to Huo Yuhao and the other two. It was because of their special presence that the academy had to temporarily suspend the assessment of freshmen.

Feeling those strange looks, Huo Yuhao's mouth curled up slightly. His goal had been achieved: to defeat the enemy without fighting, so as not to expose more of his own cards.

It only exposed part of Cui Yajie's strength. The academy will definitely make arrangements for them in the next assessment.

But for now, except for the martial soul fusion skill of Dai Huabin's team, other teams actually have no threat to them.

Soon, Cui Yajie received a private notice from the college's top management that she was admitted to the inner courtyard as an exception!

Cui Yajie, who should have been happy, immediately reported the situation to Huo Yuhao. After spending a few days together, she knew that Huo Yuhao and Xie Huanyue were not very fond of Shrek.
