Douluo Dalu II—Chapter 125: We in the Sun Moon Empire Need Such Talents!
"Master, I think you're right. Although Yuhao is talented, he has fought too little. To be honest, I haven't fought with anyone for many years," Xuan Ziwen said.
Jing Hongchen smiled upon hearing this: "How about I help you improve your combat awareness later? As the Hall Master, I have the obligation to help the researchers of Illustrious Virtue Hall become stronger."
Xuan Ziwen's face changed, and he waved his hand directly: "No need, Hall Master. I don't need your help."
He thought Jing Hongchen was too vindictive. Didn't he just accept Huo Yuhao as a student? Is he so petty? As the Hall Master, he should have a broader vision and take a long-term perspective!
However, thinking that Huo Yuhao was only his disciple on the first day of Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, he felt relieved. Perhaps because Huo Yuhao became his student, the way Elder Kong looked at him seemed to become kinder. This was undoubtedly a significant improvement. Before Huo Yuhao became his student, Elder Kong looked at him with regret and a hint of helplessness.
After all, if he hadn't been stuck at Soul Douluo, he would have been a ninth-level soul engineer by now.
Di Qiu'er on the side said, "Okay, let Huo Yuhao come."
She looked at Huo Yuhao with high morale. Perhaps because the soul beast's habits had not changed, she still remembered the last time Huo Yuhao forced her to receive attributes. If it weren't for Jing Hongchen's suppression, how could she be caught by Huo Yuhao and then receive attributes?
Generally speaking, soul beasts would choose to fight to vent their dissatisfaction in such situations.
Huo Yuhao also nodded at this moment: "Okay, then I will fight with Di Qiu'er."
"Alright, then. The first stage of the special recruitment exam, let's start now." Jing Hongchen waved his hand. With him around, Huo Yuhao could not be injured, so he naturally wouldn't worry about Di Qiu'er, who was higher in level than Huo Yuhao, injuring him.
Qiu'er nodded after hearing this, and then a dazzling golden light burst out from her body. She stomped hard on the ground, and spider-web-like cracks suddenly appeared. With her strength, she rushed toward Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao looked at the four soul rings floating on the other party's body, thinking that Qiuer was not very strong at this time—which was normal, because in the original book, Huo Yuhao first studied at Shrek for a period, then went to Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy as an exchange student for some time, and finally returned to Shrek Academy to meet Qiu'er, who had transformed into a human form, for the first time.
Soul beasts need to start from scratch to transform, but their cultivation speed is very fast because, before becoming a Soul Saint, they can produce their soul rings. However, in this stage, soul rings can also be absorbed. Otherwise, it is impossible to explain how Qiu'er's sixth soul ring in the original work was obtained by hunting soul beasts.
However, Wang Qiu'er's setting is quite buggy, because in the original work, when Yan Shaozhe introduced Qiu'er, he said she was a strong attack-type Battle Soul Emperor. As a result, during her mission to the Star Dou Great Forest, Qiu'er suddenly changed and became a Soul King again. After absorbing a soul ring, she became a Soul Emperor. It can only be said that this was likely a typo in the original work.
This is very similar to the city lord of Shrek City. Initially, it was said that Shrek City had no city lord, and then another city lord appeared directly.
"Well, even the martial soul has not been released?" Huo Yuhao's eyes suddenly glowed with golden light, and the Eye of Destiny appeared on his forehead.
Of course, he had no intention of using the Judgment of Fate. It was meaningless to use this trick on Qiu'er, who carried the luck of the Star Dou Great Forest. After all, in Tang San's words, Qiu'er was the beast of destiny. Her strength had not yet reached the level of a Destiny Beast, but she should have the potential to become one.
He used the flying soul guidance device to quickly retreat and fly into the air. It was not wise to fight Di Qiu'er in close combat—the opponent possessed a golden dragon Martial Soul and was extremely powerful. At the same time, a white defensive soul guidance shield began to form on his body.
Wang Qiu'er saw this and suddenly appeared with a golden dragon spear in her hand. She would not try to kill Huo Yuhao; she only wanted to defeat him.
Behind her, a golden dragon Martial Soul flashed, and a high-spirited dragon roar echoed throughout the soul-fighting field.
Jing Hongchen, who already possessed his martial soul and was ready to intervene at any moment, looked surprised: "My martial soul seems to be suppressed. Is this the golden dragon soul?
Dragons are originally top-level soul beasts, and the legendary golden dragon is an extremely noble species. My martial soul is also a very powerful beast martial soul, but in front of the golden dragon martial soul, I am directly suppressed by bloodline. If my martial soul were a dragon, I fear this suppression would be even more severe."
Xuan Ziwen was also a little surprised: "Hall Master, you are a Titled Douluo!"
"So what if I am a Titled Douluo? My martial soul can't compare to Di Qiu'er. If she were at the same level as me, she should be able to beat several of me. Our Sun Moon Empire needs such talents!" Jing Hongchen said.
Huo Yuhao had begun using soul skills one after another. The spiritual detection skill allowed him to observe subtle details, so he quickly identified the mistakes in Qiu'er's actions.
Then, with spiritual shock, spiritual interference, and spiritual burning, he launched a series of attacks at Di Qiu'er.
Di Qiu'er's figure paused for a moment, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes. She had absorbed some of Huo Yuhao's memories, but those memories were too fragmented, so she didn't fully understand Huo Yuhao.
"Spiritual soul skill attack? Well, it's a very impressive spiritual soul skill. Even among the spiritual attribute soul beasts in Star Dou Great Forest, this kind of skill is quite rare," Di Qiu'er said, a little surprised.
However, Huo Yuhao's spiritual soul skill attack was not enough to make her fall because she was an imperial auspicious beast. Although her human form was not as powerful as her beast form, her vast spiritual origin was still sealed within her body.
She threw the golden dragon spear at Huo Yuhao.
The spear whistled toward him.
She wanted to break Huo Yuhao's defensive sou guidance l shield and, with the "teleportation" effect of the Golden Dragon Spear, fight him at close range. For a strong attacking soul master like Di Qiu'er, close combat was advantageous.
Huo Yuhao saw her intentions. This is the advantage of the information gap, so he immediately activated another martial soul—the Ice Jade Scorpion Empress.
With his excellent spiritual power, he could use two martial souls simultaneously. It was strange that Wang Dong did not know this advanced technique early in the original work.
Logically, Wang Dong is Tang San's daughter. She was born in the God Realm. Even if she later went to the lower world, resources would not be scarce. So, it shouldn't be difficult for her to improve her spiritual strength, and there's no reason she wouldn't know this technique.
Could it be that the Tang Buddha wanted to weaken his daughter? Perhaps this was also a test. As the Tang Buddha often said, "How can you see the rainbow without going through the wind and rain?"
At that moment, the Snow Empress's spirit soul appeared on his shoulder.
