Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 138 Soul Programming
Inside the Sea God Pavilion, the atmosphere was as heavy as an abyss.

The Sky-Supporting Douluo stared coldly at Cai Yue'er, "Do you know your mistake?"

"..."

Cai Yue'er did not answer, but stood quietly in place, her long white hair falling to her shoulders, her eyes slightly lowered, revealing no emotion.

Inside the Sea God Pavilion, the air seemed to freeze, with only the rustling of golden leaves falling outside the window.

The Sky-Supporting Douluo stared at her, a complex emotion flickering in his deep eyes. He slowly rose, his tall figure casting a faint shadow in the halo of light.

"Your insolent words displeased six Title Douluos and nearly sparked a conflict between the two major forces..."

When Cai Yue'er heard that she had upset the six Title Douluos, her expression changed, and her originally calm eyes instantly became sharp as swords.

"Six Title Douluos? The Spirit Pagoda is certainly making a big show of force. Are they joining forces to put pressure on us?"

Yun Ming frowned, his tone becoming more serious: "Watch your attitude!"

Cai Yue'er remained expressionless. "I was the one who got lectured, and the academy was the one who offered compensation. Can't we even say a word? Why would we be afraid of them?"

A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but seeing Cai Yue'er's injuries that had not fully healed, Yun Ming could only sigh in the end.

"From this day forward, you are confined to the academy and are not to step out without permission."

Cai Yue'er suddenly looked up, her soul power surging like a storm, but dissipated on its own after a moment.

"Ah--"

Cai Yue'er laughed in anger, "So in the eyes of the number one person on the mainland, being a coward is the right way!"

Before she finished speaking, she flicked her sleeve and turned around, her silver hair drawing a sharp arc.

Amidst the deafening crash of the Sea God Pavilion's gates slamming shut, only Yun Ming's barely audible sigh remained.

"Zhuoshi, go and deliver the soul bone to the Spirit Pagoda."

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

……

"Things have finally come to an end. I've had a really exciting time lately, having to face the pressure from a Super Douluo."

From the stands, Xie Xie glanced at the Soul Spirit Competition below and remarked, "But seeing them go to their limits is worth it."

"It's all because your words are too lethal, otherwise, why would things have turned out that way?"

Zhang Yangzi rolled her eyes and looked at Huo Yuhao beside her, "Yuhao, our competition is over, when are we going back to Donghai?"

"Wu Lin needs some time. We'll leave once he's finished."

Huo Yuhao offered an explanation, then looked at the Soul Spirit Competition below with a strange expression.

On the field, two ten-year-old children commanded spirits in battle, but...

"Go, Ice Silkworm! Use Ice Sand."

"Go, Gray Rabbit! Charge!"

On the field, the ice silkworm slowly wriggled and spewed out a small patch of icy mist, which could barely be considered "ice slush." ​​Meanwhile, the gray rabbit spirit on the other side ignored the icy mist and leaped forward, crashing into the ice silkworm.

"boom!"

The ice silkworm was knocked over, rolled twice, and then slowly stood up, looking like it hadn't woken up yet.

Zhang Yangzi's expression was strange. "The Ice Silkworm's body is so weak that it's limp even when subjected to the simplest impact. It's on the list of the weakest soul spirits. Doesn't that kid know that? If this continues, it will be eliminated in the first round."

Xie Xie's eye twitched, and he almost laughed.

"...Boss, your first soul spirit is the Ice Silkworm, right? Is it really that weak?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena, standing beside Huo Yuhao, smiled slightly, her eyes also lighting up with amusement. Huo Yuhao: "..."

The little ice silkworm and the heavenly dream ice silkworm of the spiritual sea were enraged.

"Yuhao, let me out! I'm going to show them what a real Ice Silkworm is!"

Ice Silkworm: "Great Emperor, you are mighty! May the Ice Silkworm clan be great once again!"

Huo Yuhao sighed with mixed feelings.

I wish I hadn't come.

Forget it, let's practice the second soul skill.

In Gu Yuena's line of sight, four spirit rings appeared around Huo Yuhao, who directly used an interference field to obscure the scene and cover her as well.

After that, Huo Yuhao's second spirit ring lit up.

One by one, points of starlight appeared around Huo Yuhao. With a subtle fluctuation, several small soul-guided floating turrets appeared around Huo Yuhao in the blink of an eye.

Gu Yuena blinked, somewhat surprised.

It wasn't because of the soul skill itself, since she had seen this soul skill before; she was just surprised by Huo Yuhao's mental control.

She was a mecha designer, and she could see those soul-guided floating cannons very clearly. In terms of design, they were all level four soul-guided devices, very exquisite, and each one was different.

Huo Yuhao is currently using two soul skills while simultaneously creating such intricate and unique soul-guided floating cannons. How did he manage that?
No matter how strong one's mental control is, it shouldn't reach this level, right?
This is dozens of times more valuable than her ability to manipulate multiple elements at once.

Moreover, each soul tool requires the drawing of a soul guidance array. It usually takes Yuhao a certain amount of time to make a soul tool. Why is it so fast now using mental power?

Thinking of this, Gu Yuena frowned, remembering something.

Previously, when Huo Yuhao was fully focused on making soul tools in class, he could use his domain to conceal his actions. Now that I think about it, that doesn't seem right.

Suppressing her urge to ask, Gu Yuena waited until Huo Yuhao withdrew his soul skill before approaching him and asking curiously, "Yuhao, how did you do that?"

"..."

Huo Yuhao glanced at Gu Yuena with a complicated expression. Although he had already guessed it, he still felt a little emotional after finding out that she really didn't know how.

Well, the gods have a kind of numerical beauty, but none of them have ever thought about precise operation.

Huo Yuhao explained, "Take divine sense as an example. Divine sense can launch attacks, store memories, and even act as an independent thread to solve various problems without affecting one's thinking. If someone in the Divine Origin Realm wants to, they can divide their divine sense into many parts. So, instead of dividing these divine senses, let them help you share the burden of mental control. What if each thread solves a small problem?"

Gu Yuena looked at Huo Yuhao with a blank and adorable expression.

Huh, is that even possible?

"It's that simple. And in my experience, you don't need to reach the Divine Origin Realm, nor do you need to give your mental power the ability to think. You only need to give a part of your mental power the ability to perform the same task repeatedly, like a factory assembly line. You can then increase your mental control many times over. As your mental power improves, the more assembly lines you create, the more your mental control will continue to improve."

"I call this technique Soul Programming, do you want to learn it?"

This is Huo Yuhao's gradual development and utilization of his spiritual power after experiencing the mysteries of the Divine Origin Realm.

With those mental energy production lines, he only needs to input mental energy, and the functions will run automatically, which is naturally worry-free and effortless. It is also easier to quickly create a soul tool using the second soul skill, since the corresponding soul tool making process has already been simulated in the sea of ​​spirit. It is just a matter of using the soul skill to make it quickly take shape outside.

With such user-friendly operation, how could it not be fast?

It's simpler to use it to unleash soul skills, since soul skills are just programs, and mental power only needs to be used to activate them.

Gu Yuena nodded silently upon hearing this.

First came forging, then mental control. It felt like she didn't understand her own abilities and potential as well as Yuhao, and needed the other party to help her develop them.

Just like she lacks practical combat experience, isn't her control over her own power rather poor?
