Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 121 Soul Spirit Competition?

As soon as Huo Yuhao entered his room, the voice of the Evil Emperor resounded in his spiritual sea.

"Over the course of ten thousand years, the human world has undergone tremendous changes. I never imagined that humans and spirit beasts could actually reach this point."

In the Sea of ​​Spirit, the Evil Emperor was quite surprised to learn about recent events from Tianmeng and Bingdi.

A legendary soul? A sea god? A supreme ruler of soul beasts? A throne of divine authority? Harmony between humans and beasts?

When the Evil Emperor woke up, he felt that the world was no longer the same as he knew it.

As an ancient relic from ten thousand years ago, he said it would take him some time to accept it.

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, took out a red and white ball, and released the Evil Eye Tyrant. "Speaking of this matter, your descendants have adapted very well."

As a Soul Spirit Researcher at the Spirit Pagoda, he could naturally form a Soul Spirit Contract on his own. The Evil Eye Tyrant did not enter the Sea of ​​Spirituality like the little ice silkworm; it merely served as a cover for the source of his second Soul Spirit and is currently still inside the Soul Spirit Orb.

"..."

In the Sea of ​​Spirit, the Evil Emperor, upon seeing the Evil Eye Tyrant released by Huo Yuhao, first tried to please Huo Yuhao for a while, then slowly floated to the soul guide screen in the room, turned it on to watch news videos, and fell silent.

They adapted very well.

Or perhaps he adapted too well; if he hadn't taken the opportunity to join the "Forbidden Zone of the Spiritual Sea," he would feel that his death as the Evil Eye Ancestor was utterly meaningless...

An interview clip is playing on the Soul Guidance screen.

A female reporter with a bow in her hair was holding up a megaphone in front of the blue-haired boy.

"What are your thoughts on the Soul Spirit Competition of the Tianhai Grand Tournament in recent years?"

Before the blue-haired boy could speak, a cotton candy-like spirit cat suddenly appeared above his head, answering in a childish voice, "Meow~"

The boy's face flushed red, and he hurriedly tried to cover the spirit cat's mouth.

The female reporter asked curiously, "I wonder what your spirit is saying?"

"No, it's nothing."

"That spirit said he used to secretly watch the replays of the matches until the early hours of the morning." The Evil Eye Tyrant in front of the soul guide screen emitted a mental fluctuation. "I also quite enjoyed watching them in my previous soul master family."

Evil Emperor: "..."

You're living a really good life! Being the ancestor of a Soul Master family must be awesome!

The boy on the screen took a deep breath and replied:

“I think the Soul Spirit Tournament is very interesting. However, some Soul Spirits have vastly different stats. Even if they are of similar age, you can tell who will win when you see them face off. Although occasionally there are mutated Soul Spirits that perform exceptionally well and are a pleasant surprise, they are ultimately a minority. I hope the rules can be changed from one-on-one to three-on-three, or even more.”

"Furthermore, I think we can add a terrain change system, such as mountains, jungles, and waterways, to make the battles more complex. An empty arena just doesn't feel right. With the Federation's current technology, it's not difficult to create different arenas."

The boy suddenly leaned closer to the camera, his eyes sparkling, "Actually, I have another idea! Aren't there mecha tournaments right now? Why not hold a Soul Spirit Mecha Tournament, with mechas resembling various soul beasts clashing together? Wouldn't that be even better..."

The image on the Soul Guidance Screen shook slightly, indicating that there had been some minor disturbance at the interview site.

The boy seemed to realize he had spoken too passionately, took a few steps back, and scratched his hair sheepishly.
"Sorry, I think I got too excited."

The female reporter maintained a professional smile, "It's alright, thank you for sharing."

Huo Yuhao watched as the reporter and the boy on the screen said goodbye, then turned to the next person and looked at the Evil Eye Tyrant, "You want to participate in the Soul Spirit Competition?"

In this era, soul competitions... actually exist; they're one of the events in the Tianhai Grand Competition.

Of course, the age limit for spirits is restricted; ten-thousand-year-old spirits cannot participate. This is intended for people and spirits who enjoy spirit battles. Evil Eye Tyrant: "I only like watching. For actual combat, the quarantine zone is better."

As it was talking, it changed the channel and started watching its favorite program.

Having lived in the human world for so many years, I've learned everything I need to know.

"What do you plan to do with it?" At this moment, looking at his descendants who were enjoying modern life, the Evil Emperor asked with narrowed eyes in the Sea of ​​Spirit.

He seemed to see a giant lazy worm. Was this the same tyrannical evil-eyed ruler who struck fear into the hearts of all? What would others think of him, the ruler of the evil-eyed tyranny, if they saw him?
Hmph, what a disgrace!

Before Huo Yuhao could answer, the Evil Emperor continued:

"How about putting it in the undead demiplane? I've got nothing better to do anyway, I can teach it a lesson when I have time!"

"..."

Huo Yuhao looked at the Evil Emperor, who had materialized right beside him, with a surprised expression.

What do you want to teach it?
Before he could think further, Xue Di's figure appeared silently, and she said in a gentle voice:

"Yuhao, you don't mind, do you? I wanted to come out for some fresh air."

Didn't you say that you usually stay in the Eye of Life and don't come out?

Huo Yuhao blinked and smiled helplessly: "Xue'er, how about you help me comprehend the divine skill? I'm a bit slow right now because I can't fully utilize the power of the laws."

Xue Di was taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in her icy blue eyes, but it quickly turned into a gentle smile. "Of course."

She gently raised her hand, and the Snow Emperor's Decree appeared on Huo Yuhao's forehead, enveloping the room in a spatial barrier to prevent outsiders from entering and disturbing it.

Afterwards, the two went to the side to cultivate, leaving the Evil Eye Tyrant, who had turned his gaze away from the soul guidance screen, to face the Evil Emperor with a blank expression.

It knew that Huo Yuhao already had a soul, but why was the other party exuding the aura of an ancestor?

The dozens of tentacles of the Evil Eye Tyrant writhed uneasily, its huge single eye gradually filled with horror, and its mental fluctuations became somewhat chaotic.

"Ancestor?"

"The Evil Eye Clan has withered away to this extent, leaving only trash like you."

The Evil Emperor squinted at it, his voice low and deep, "So be it, since you've encountered me, it's your good fortune."

Evil Eye Tyrant: "..."

I don't want good fortune, I just want to find a Soul Master family to live a peaceful life and occasionally scare humans, is that okay?

……

The opening ceremony of the Tianhai League Grand Tournament was held in Tianhai Stadium. The huge stadium, which can accommodate 80,000 people, was packed to capacity and filled with noise and excitement.

As an annual grand event of the Tianhai Alliance, this competition not only attracted the attention of the entire Federation but also received high attention within the Alliance itself. After all, although the Tianhai Alliance boasts outstanding economic strength, its relatively short history means that its foundation in Soul Masters is somewhat lacking compared to those Soul Master families on the continent with thousands or even tens of thousands of years of heritage.

As is customary, the opening ceremony focused on formalities, with the drawing of lots handled by the teachers leading each team. Therefore, Huo Yuhao and his teammates were able to relax and quietly observe the grand event from the sidelines.

Seeing the competition stage set up in the center, Xie Xie said, "Criticisms aside, the strength of Shrek Academy students is still far behind that of Soul Masters of the same level in the Alliance. If the Alliance loses too badly in this exhibition match, they will lose face, right?"

"The alliance should have its own methods, right?" Xu Xiaoyan said. "Besides, that kind of thing is none of our business, so don't overthink it."

"I'm so hungry, do you know where I can get some food?"
