Peerless: I Became Huo Yuhao's Dark Personality

Chapter 73 Dai Hao: My son cannot be without legs!

"What did you say!" Dai Haoru was struck by lightning, his head buzzing, and he stood there in a daze for a moment.

"Say it again! What happened to Yuheng?" Compared to Dai Hao, the Duchess immediately rushed to the servant, her face trembling and her body unstable.

"The eldest young master's right leg... is gone." The servant didn't dare to look up at this moment. Not long ago, the second young master Dai Huabin's left leg was crippled, and now the eldest young master Dai Yuheng has lost his right leg. He now just wants to escape quickly to avoid suffering an unexpected disaster.

After hearing this, the Duchess's eyes rolled back, her legs went limp, and she fell backwards with a low, muffled thud.

"Madam!" The voice woke up the dazed Dai Hao. Without thinking too much, he picked up the Duchess and placed her in the hall.

"You two, stay by the lady's side." Dai Hao pointed at the two maids, and then he rushed out of the mansion.

Outside the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, Yan Shaozhe, dressed in tight clothes, stood outside the gate with a hint of impatience on his face. Beside him was Dai Yuheng, who was sleeping on a stretcher.

Dai Yuheng's injuries have stabilized. Staying in the academy would do nothing but waste resources. It must be said that the corpse poison carried by the corpse explosion technique is indeed extraordinary. In addition, Dai Yuheng was severely corroded by the poison at the time, which is why he has been sleeping for so long and still has not woken up.

As the top aristocratic family in the Xingluo Empire, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion's status can be said to be second only to the Xu family. Therefore, Shrek Academy specially sent Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department, to show respect.

Coincidentally, he and Xian Lin'er left on the same day. As soon as the Sea God Pavilion meeting ended, he happened to think of Dai Yuheng when he was dealing with the official business of the Wuhun Department's inner courtyard.

After some inquiries, he learned that Dai Yuheng's condition was stable, so he hurriedly sent Dai Yuheng here. The herbs in the inner courtyard were very precious, and he felt bad about using them to treat outsiders, because that was all the money from the Wuhun Department!
Sensing the rapidly approaching aura behind the bronze gate, Yan Shaozhe suppressed the impatience on his face. Judging from the other party's undisguised soul power fluctuations, it was a Soul Douluo. Appearing in the Duke's Mansion, it was undoubtedly the current White Tiger Duke Dai Hao.

(During Huo Yuhao's deep adventure mission in Qiankun Questioning Love Valley, Dai Hao said that he had broken through to the Titled Douluo level six months ago. This means that four and a half years from now, he could only be a Soul Douluo.)
Yan Shaozhe was a little annoyed. Shouldn't a Marshal like Dai Hao be stationed at the border to guard the enemy country? How could he have bumped into him by such a coincidence?

Of course he didn't want to see Dai Hao. After all, it was his son who was disabled. If the other party was not there, he could just send him there and leave.

What a pity, Yan Shaozhe thought silently. Along with the sound of stone clashing, Dai Hao pushed the door open with an anxious look on his face. His eyes first fell on Yan Shaozhe with a heavy face, and then fell on Dai Yuheng, whose right leg was empty on the stretcher.

Dai Hao's steps forward were extremely staggering, which was enough to prove his inner restlessness. Seeing his eldest son, whom he was most satisfied with, become like this, his eyes were red and his voice was filled with extremely suppressed anger.

"Who did this!"

"Please accept my condolences, Duke. Yaoheng was injured while on duty with the Supervisory Corps. His injuries were extremely serious, and the academy went to great lengths to save his life."

Yan Shaozhe's voice was sorrowful, and he inadvertently pointed out the painstaking efforts that Shrek Academy had put into treating Dai Yuheng.

"Inspection mission? Mingdou Mountains?" The anger on Dai Hao's face froze, and he recalled the scene when Dai Yuheng and his group came to the White Tiger Military Camp some time ago.

"I didn't expect the Duke to know. Yes, Yueheng was injured in the Mingdou Mountains. He was injured by a group of evil soul masters called the Hand of Death. Yueheng is an excellent soul master."

Yan Shaozhe showed surprise and doubt on his face, obviously he didn't expect Dai Hao to know about it, but this didn't affect his performance. His voice was tragic and regretful, and he praised Dai Yuheng sincerely.

"Impossible!" Dai Hao growled. "The strongest of those evil soul masters in the Mingdou Mountains is only a Soul King. And Yueheng said they have a level 98 teacher leading the team. How could an accident happen?"

Yan Shaozhe frowned, not expecting Dai Hao to know so much. He immediately changed his mind and looked sad.

"That evil soul master at the Soul King level possessed an extremely rare and powerful soul skill called Corpse Explosion. Yaoheng and his companions were careless and were ambushed. Fortunately, Elder Xuan came to their rescue in time and saved Yaoheng's life."

At this point, Yan Shaozhe paused deliberately, and said with a painful expression: "At that time, Master Xuan was only concerned with saving Yaoheng immediately, which resulted in the unfortunate death of three students on the spot.

After the accident, Master Xuan rushed Yuheng to the academy as quickly as possible, which prevented Yuheng's injuries from getting worse. Unfortunately, several of Yuheng's teammates..."

This is the brilliance of Yan Shaozhe. He used the death of other students to highlight Dai Yuheng's injuries, and at the same time, he stuck to the main line, rescuing your son first and then treating him. After hearing this, could Dai Hao still blame Shrek?

Look, your son only lost a leg, but the others lost their lives!

This sentence can also express another meaning, that is, because your son was rescued first, three Shrek students died, and you should thank us.

Dai Hao has lived for so long and is not a fool. He immediately heard the hidden meaning in Yan Shaozhe's words. Whether it is true or false, he can only listen seriously now.

Without a legitimate reason, the Xingluo royal family did not dare to directly break off relations with Shrek Academy, not to mention the other party's rhetoric. Their Dai family was not in the right at all, and was even the favored party.

Dai Hao was furious but couldn't show it. He could only force a smile and said, "Please, Dean Yan, thank Master Xuan for me when you see him. I'll take Yu Heng to rest first."

"I will convey the Duke's thanks." Yan Shaozhe nodded with satisfaction. Dai Hao was a very sensible boy and was good at speaking.

As for whether the other party is sincere or not, or whether they are doing something behind the scenes, who cares? Shrek Academy is not afraid of anyone!
Yan Shaozhe felt disdainful in his heart when he thought of this, but he pretended to be gentle on the surface, "I still have some trivial matters to deal with at the academy, so I won't bother you anymore.

By the way, Yaoheng's condition has stabilized. He just needs to rest and he'll probably wake up soon."

"Dean Yan, take care." Dai Hao looked dejected as he watched Yan Shaozhe disappear in a flash.

How could a Soul Douluo like him fight against the giant Shrek Academy? His two sons were all disabled, and the other illegitimate children had mediocre talents. How could this generation of the Dai family revive?

No! No! There must be a way! Dai Hao roared in his heart. Looking at Dai Yuheng on the stretcher, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, but also a trace of imperceptible gloom, and he murmured softly.

"Yueheng, I will definitely find a way to get you back on your feet."

At Xingluo Square, when the referee announced the victory of Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy, thunderous cheers suddenly erupted from the audience.

There was no other reason, it was simply because the victorious academy belonged to their Xingluo Empire. In other words, the myth of Shrek, the continent's number one academy, having held the championship for ten thousand years, was broken by their Xingluo Empire. What an honor this was!

These were the people who only cared about the battle. How many of them were still concerned about the so-called dark side of the competition? They were all filled with pride and pride in the Star Luo Empire having personally brought Shrek Academy down from its pedestal.

Wang Yan's face was pale. The defeat of Beibei and Xu Sanshi was tantamount to a death sentence for Shrek Academy.

Although the round-robin tournament wasn't like the knockout stage, where losing meant going home, only one team from each group could advance. If Shrek Academy lost this match, they could only hope the other teams didn't go undefeated. Otherwise, Shrek Academy wouldn't have qualified. Wang Yan kept hoping for a miracle: what if? What if they actually won the championship?

"Beibei, if our bloodline awakens, how confident are we?" Xu Sanshi asked in a low voice as he walked off the stage.

"Less than 10%. Bai Yanyan and Luo Xiaoli are not ordinary Soul Kings. They are powerful people with a solid foundation. Their Soul King status is already one level higher than ours, not to mention they also have the blessing of soul guides.

Besides, in your state at that time, did you still have the energy to awaken your bloodline? You little loser, you can't even actively control the awakening. "Beibei smiled elegantly, but his words were completely inconsistent with his appearance.

"Youdao... your sister!" Xu Sanshi, who had been listening with approval, suddenly looked indignant, "After I reach the seventh ring, I can awaken however I want!

Besides, you can awaken on your own initiative, but can you increase your combat power as much as I can?"

"Only the weak make excuses. Sanshi, you can't do it!" Beibei said softly, and left with a chic back.

"The second game of the first round of the round-robin tournament. Players from both teams, please come on stage." The referee's voice, amplified by the soul-amplifying device, just drowned out Xu Sanshi's cursing. Players from both academies all looked solemn, and two players from each academy walked out.

Huo Yuhao and Ling Luochen went on stage as planned, while the Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy sent two male soul masters who looked exactly the same.

Seeing the players sent by Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy, Wang Yan was worried instead of happy. If nothing unexpected happened, the victory of this match should belong to Shrek Academy, but the next game would be difficult!
"Please share your names."

"Shrek Academy, Huo Yuhao (Ling Luochen)."

"Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy, Wang Zhen (Wang Sheng)."

Wang Zhen and Wang Sheng are twin brothers, with the Fire Wolf spirit as their martial soul and the offensive fighting spirit as their main force.

Yes, these are the only two non-Soul King team members of Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy. The reason why Wang Yan looked worried was because Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy chose the safest way of playing.

Even though they won the first game, they did not think about continuing in the second round, but chose to put the remaining three Soul Kings in the third game.

In other words, even if Huo Yuhao and Ling Luochen won this battle, how would He Caitou, Jiang Nannan, and Wang Dong face the Three Soul King opponent later?

Wang Yan laughed at himself. He lost the bet. In fact, there were two sets of battle plans. The first set was the tactics arranged before, and the second set was that Huo Yuhao, Ling Luochen, and Wang Dong would be the finale, and Cai Tou and Jiang Nannan would play the second game.

Huo Yuhao can both enhance Ling Luochen's ice attribute and perform martial soul fusion techniques with Wang Dong. The second arrangement is undoubtedly the most reasonable, but this is based on the premise of winning the first battle.

As the only Soul King combat force, Ling Luochen must play a key role. Unfortunately, Beibei and Xu Sanshi lost the first game, so they must win the second game, which means they must implement the plan of Ling Luochen and Huo Yuhao.

"Game start!"

The two Wang Zhen brothers were instantly possessed by martial spirits. Their black hair quickly turned fiery red, their bodies grew taller, their limbs swelled, and the same fiery red hair covered their bodies.

Huo Yuhao leaned back and placed his hands on Ling Luochen's back. As the soul power of both of them connected, he instantly amplified Ling Luochen's ice element to the extreme ice level.

Because he was fully focused, an illusory emerald green scorpion shadow appeared behind Huo Yuhao. A dark green light flashed through his eyes, and an imperceptible pressure disappeared in an instant. Even Ling Luochen, who was close to him, did not feel it.

"Ice Emperor, what's wrong with you?" As the person involved, Huo Yuhao naturally sensed this aura clearly. It was the sign that the Ice Emperor had taken over his martial soul.

"It's okay. I just felt your soul power being absorbed by another ice-attribute soul power, and I thought something happened to you."

The cold voice of the Ice Emperor came. She had just been meditating and thinking in her sea of ​​consciousness as usual, when she suddenly felt an unfamiliar ice-attributed soul power in Huo Yuhao's body. She was wondering who was so blind as to play with ice and hurt her, so she took a look through her martial soul.

Huo Yuhao understood it but didn't take it to heart, and continued to focus on amplifying Ling Luochen.

A hint of pride and contempt flashed in Ling Luochen's cold eyes. As the first soul ring lit up, a two-meter-long staff made entirely of ice crystals appeared in her hand. At this moment, Wang Zhen and the other two had rushed forward more than ten meters.

The next moment, Ling Luochen's black ten thousand year soul ring suddenly lit up, and a circle of dark blue ice ring floated into the air, drifting towards Wang Zhen and the others, and the size of the ice ring was gradually expanding.

The two Wang Zhen brothers were shocked at the same time. They didn't expect that the other party would use the most powerful fifth soul skill right from the start. They looked at each other and the first soul ring lit up.

In an instant, a large amount of flames gushed out from the bodies of the two men, and their aura became stronger at this moment. There was no doubt that this was an amplifying soul skill.

However, the ice ring was extremely fast and arrived above Wang Zhen and the other man's heads in the blink of an eye. At the same time, the two brothers felt a chill and even the circulation of their soul power stagnated a little.

Under their astonished gazes, the flames on their bodies were extinguished. Before the two could move, they lost consciousness and turned into two ice sculptures standing on the arena.

Defeated in seconds? The audience was in an uproar. They had never expected that their own Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy, which had been so powerful in the previous match, would be defeated instantly by Shrek Academy in the next match.

Ling Luochen raised his arm and pointed his ice staff at the air. The ice on the surface of Wang Zhen and Wang Sheng's bodies shattered and turned into pieces of ice that fell to the ground. The two people inside had already been frozen blue all over, and even their martial spirits were dissolved. They collapsed to the ground as the ice shattered.

"Shrek Academy wins the second game of the first round of the round-robin tournament."

After the verdict was announced, the people cheered again, but the object of their praise became Shrek Academy. The rapid change of their expressions was breathtaking.

"A Soul King of Ultimate Ice faces two Fire-attribute Soul Masters. Yuhao and Senior Sister Ling are incredibly lucky. Not only are their cultivation bases overwhelming, but their attributes are also overwhelming."

Xu Sanshi's face was full of envy. Thinking back to how he had just been crushed in terms of cultivation and attacked by concentrated fire, his tone was extremely sour.

"If you're new, practice more." Beibei said with a light click of his tongue, full of sarcasm.

……

"Vicious beast! God help me!" In a place where no one noticed, the greed in an old man's eyes almost melted Huo Yuhao.
