Douluo: Starting by Taking Control of the Holy Ghost Cult's Saintess

The eyes of Dean Yan Shaozhe were filled with disbelief. He never would have thought that this one slash from Huo Yuhao could be so terrifying. This fusion attack, mixed with spiritual power, soul power, and life energy, had actually caught him, a Super Douluo, off guard, making him lose face in public.

Beside him, the shock in Qian Duoduo's eyes was no less than his. Who knew that Huo Yuhao had such a technique! And who would have ever thought that such a shocking scene would be staged in the finals of the new student assessment—a self-created soul skill versus a martial soul fusion skill! Unlike the martial soul fusion skill duel in the original novel, Huo Yuhao could be said to have defeated the supposedly invincible Nether White Tiger with his own power!

This one slash was enough to be comparable to the full-power strike of a seven-ring Soul Sage!

It was also with this strike that Yan Shaozhe and the other high-ranking members of the academy completely let down their guard against Huo Yuhao. In its place rose a strong desire to subdue him. What did a soul master who could freely mobilize life energy signify? It signified that he was very likely the Son of Life, recognized by the Douluo Continent.

Of course, Huo Yuhao would not explain to them. How could he be any Son of Life? The original Huo Gua's constitution was simply too trashy. The reason he could mobilize a large amount of life energy was because of the fourth soul ring in his body that was constantly absorbing the primordial energy of heaven and earth. Ever since his Spirit Eyes martial soul had fused with the third soul ring, the production of his fourth soul ring, which was a replica mapped from his first, had also been put on the agenda. Just as the Huo Gua in the later stages of the original novel had projected his yin-yang complementary soul cores into Tang Wutong's body, he could use this method to once again condense a million-year soul ring of the same age as his first.

This way, Huo Yuhao's next few soul rings would all be white. Mmm, a lustrous white with golden lace...

Bibi Dong was not a complete god, so she couldn't randomly reward a soul master with a god-bestowed soul ring like in the divine trials. Every soul ring she crafted for Huo Yuhao required a long time of condensing worldly primordial energy and sculpting with divine power.

To put it in a simpler way, starting from Huo Yuhao's third soul ring, the next few were all modeled on the first million-year soul ring transformed from the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. Through long-term absorption, the worldly primordial energy would undergo a qualitative change to the corresponding age level, and then Bibi Dong would use her Rakshasa divine power to sculpt the internal skill itself according to Huo Yuhao's needs. This was how Huo Yuhao had obtained his heaven-defying third soul skill, Kamui.

So even if Huo Yuhao didn't cultivate, he was a life energy devouring machine just by walking down the street. This was also Huo Yuhao's "overlord aura" that was laid bare for all to see. The girls who got close to him couldn't help but be attracted by the rich life energy wrapped around his body.

May I ask, how many female soul masters would hate life energy that could nourish their beauty, prolong their life, and also had the effect of cleansing their meridians and marrow, and the worldly primordial energy that could trigger the evolution of their martial soul?

Thus, the top three of the Shrek new student assessment knockout tournament were officially decided. Third place was surprisingly Team Shi-Hi-Kai, led by Huo Yuhao.

Of course, those who knew, knew. This team of Huo Yuhao's was the true and deserving number one among the new students. As for how many more trump cards Huo Yuhao was still hiding, probably only he himself knew.

The new student assessment was all over. The next morning, a new student assembly would be held to present awards to the top three teams and to re-sort the first-year classes.

Dai Huabin, who was still standing dazedly in the arena, swayed. He only managed not to fall with the help of Zhu Lu and Ye Linlin. The stubbornness and pride on his face were now completely gone, replaced by decadence and self-mockery.

He had lost. If one were to say that Cao Jinxuan could win against them by relying on strategy and a previously unknown Time Stop Domain, then Huo Yuhao had won against them by relying on pure strength. Huo Yuhao had let his two teammates take turns to beat up Dai Huabin one-on-one, and in the end, had almost instant-killed his proud martial soul fusion skill with his own power.

Huo Yuhao's eyesight was naturally excellent. He could clearly see the change in Dai Huabin's expression. It was as if two souls had merged into one at that moment. An indescribable pleasure suddenly rose in his heart. It was the joy of revenge. He suddenly discovered that striking Dai Huabin in the area he was most conceited about had an exceptionally good retaliatory effect.

The results of the new student assessment finals quickly spread throughout the entire academy. That evening, Huo Yuhao once again played the role of a great chef. Together with his two teammates, as well as Ning Tian's group of three and Ma Xiaotao, he went out into the wild to make roasted fish for them.

Ning Tian's group of three and Ma Xiaotao, who were tasting Yuhao's roasted fish for the first time, expressed great approval of his skills. Of course, the portion of roasted fish that Ma Xiaotao, who was already Huo Yuhao's woman, received was naturally slightly different from what the other girls had. After Ma Xiaotao deliberately tasted the roasted fish in the hands of the other girls and came to this conclusion, her heart was instantly filled with sweetness. She was also smart enough not to say it out loud, and her gaze towards the busy Huo Yuhao was full of tenderness.

This could be considered Huo Yuhao's only presentable skill. After all, it was the specialty of the original body's owner. After he transmigrated, he had inherited this skill completely.

Huo Yuhao set up a small tent, planning to spend the night directly in the wild. Ning Tian's group of three, who were long used to this, how could they let this opportunity go? They drilled into the tent one step ahead of Huo Yuhao. Cui Yejie followed closely behind, leaving a helpless-looking Huo Yuhao and a Ma Xiaotao with a face full of murderous aura.

Xie Huanyue finally knew why all these girls loved to stick to Huo Yuhao. If it were him, faced with such pure life energy, he also wouldn't be able to hold back!

If you're a brother, let me sleep (with you)!

Xie Huanyue let out a strange howl and pounced at Huo Yuhao, which scared the latter out of his wits. This kind of thing was still too terrifying. Sorry, brother!

Huo Yuhao kicked Xie Huanyue out without any explanation.

This night, Huo Yuhao and the five girls were very happy. Except for Xie Huanyue—

On the other side, just as in the original work's development, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, and the two great plagues from the Tang Sect, plus Xu Sanshi, five people gathered together to celebrate Wang Dong's team winning second place in the new student assessment. Cao Jinxuan was absent from this dinner because he was unconscious from his martial soul injury.

Xiao Xiao, influenced by some unknown power, was also tricked by Tang Ya into joining the Tang Sect during this dinner. The withered Tang Sect once again burst with vigorous vitality.

In addition, the great simp Xu Sanshi, who had originally only been willing to become a member of the Tang Sect after Jiang Nannan agreed to join, also decided to join the Tang Sect out of the blue.

When no one was paying attention, Xu Sanshi glanced at the elegantly eating Wang Dong with a strange expression, his thoughts unknown.

In the Sea God Pavilion's library, there was a book that specifically introduced rare martial souls, which detailed the Radiant Butterfly Goddess. Because the Radiant Butterfly Goddess was extremely beautiful itself, it would only appear on female soul masters. Therefore, when Wang Dong'er had just entered the academy, the academy's higher-ups already knew she was a girl.

Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei were hailed as the twin stars of the outer court. In the future, they were bound to enter the inner court. There was naturally no reason why they hadn't been inside the inner court.

The Radiant Butterfly Goddess compared to the Soft-Boned Rabbit, the latter is simply too weak, right?

Xu Sanshi considered himself a devoted man, but it was undeniable that he was a man first.

In these past few years, he had given so much, silently done so much for Jiang Nannan behind the scenes, and had even sent people to take care of her family. But all he felt from Jiang Nannan was frustration and powerlessness. Perhaps it was time for him to let go?

After all, the self-righteous and filial Jiang Nannan had not even gone home to see her seriously ill mother. This point alone could explain many things.

He suddenly didn't want to be a simp anymore.

...

The next morning, it was another sunny day. Because of Sea God Lake within the Shrek campus, the air in Shrek Academy was not only fresh but also very humid.

All the several hundred new students who had passed the assessment gathered at Shrek Plaza, quietly waiting for the upcoming class re-sorting.

Before long, the director of the martial soul department's teaching office, Du Weilun, came to the front of the students with more than a dozen teachers. Among these teachers, Huo Yuhao only knew one, which was naturally their former head teacher, Mu Jin. Due to her excellent teaching quality, both her position and salary had been greatly promoted. As for the other teachers, at most he only had some impression of them.

The director of teaching, Du Weilun, held a folder in his hand. He scanned the group of new students with a smile on his face for a week, then said, "I believe everyone already knows that the new student assessment knockout tournament has ended, and the final top three have been decided."

"Next, I will officially announce their names and also announce the rewards they will receive. Third place in the new student assessment, Team Shi-Hi-Kai. The team members are Huo Yuhao, Xie Huanyue, Cui Yejie. The three of you, step forward."

Thunderous applause erupted from all the new students. After the knockout tournament, there were more than three hundred first-year students left. Compared to when the school year had just started, nearly two-thirds had already been eliminated.

"Second place, Team Wang Dong. The team members are Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, Cao Jinxuan. The three of you, step forward."

The applause sounded again, but after the three from Wang Dong's team walked out, there was not a trace of excitement on their faces. Especially Cao Jinxuan, his face was tense, his head slightly lowered, as if he were thinking about something.

After a slight pause, Du Weilun then said in a slightly raised voice, "Next, please welcome the final champion of our new student assessment with warm applause. They are, Team Ning Tian! The team members are Ning Tian, Wu Feng, Nanmen Yun'er!"

Immediately, warm cheers erupted from the entire arena. Ning Tian and the other two girls' faces were flushed, clearly due to excitement.

The three excited girls walked onto the award stage. Meeting the encouraging gaze of Huo Yuhao, who was already standing there, they finally could no longer suppress the emotions erupting in their hearts. With a pout of their small mouths, they pounced towards Huo Yuhao together.

Wow—

All the new students, including the teachers, watched in shock as the three bold girls did this.

The three goddess-level girls all crowded around Huo Yuhao. Countless boys who had admired them for a long time only felt their hearts drip with blood and let out painful wolf howls.
