Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 214 Gap
Looking at Huo Yuhao, the Amorous Douluo judged his cultivation level through some details and sighed inwardly.

"He's almost a Soul Saint... What terrifying talent. Among the younger generation, no one can stop him. Just look at him walking this way now; he's already set his sights on an even higher level."

While the Amorous Douluo was pondering, Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena arrived at the table where the Soul-Suppressing Douluo and his group were sitting. They greeted everyone first, and then began to chat and exchange pleasantries with people they knew.

"Sister Yu Lai, it's been a long time," Gu Yuena said with a smile, transmitting her voice to one of the councilors.

Both Leng Yulai and Nanali used their identities as federal congressmen to come here this time, a secret known only to a few members of the federal mission.

Gu Yuena and Huo Yuhao were naturally aware of this, since one of their tasks was to protect these younger generations.

The transformed Dark Phoenix Douluo replied with a smile, "Long time no see, Na'er. You've grown even more beautiful. In a few years, the title of the most beautiful woman on the continent will probably shift from Holy Spirit Douluo to you."

There are many reasons why the title of the most beautiful woman on the mainland is bestowed upon the Holy Spirit Douluo.

The most important reason for this was that the Holy Spirit had healed many patients, including high-ranking officials and powerful figures. Out of gratitude, these people naturally praised her lavishly. In addition, Ya Li herself possessed a gentle temperament and extraordinary beauty. Over time, the title of the most beautiful woman on the continent spread like wildfire among the high-ranking officials of the Federation and various forces.

However, in terms of temperament and appearance, there are also those within the Spirit Pagoda who are no less impressive than the Holy Spirit Douluo, such as her older sister Leng Yaozhu.

Even though aesthetics are subjective, Leng Yulai had to admit that Gu Yuena was a bit over the top.

There are many records of soul beasts transforming into human form in the Spirit Pagoda, but even the soul beasts themselves didn't create such beautiful faces.

Is it a gift from heaven or divine protection? Or is it simply that the Gu family has good genes?

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena smiled slightly: "Sister Yu Lai is joking. His Holiness the Holy Spirit is virtuous and talented, how can he be compared to mere appearance?"

Dark Phoenix Douluo Leng Yulai chuckled: "You little girl, you know how to talk. I was only commenting on appearance, you don't need to be modest."

Gu Yuena blinked, glanced at Huo Yuhao beside her, and thought to herself: It's a pity that the person who cares the most doesn't pay much attention to appearance.

She felt that even if she had changed to a normal appearance a few years ago, the other person would still accept it.

Huo Yuhao, unaware of Gu Yuena's thoughts, was having a pleasant conversation with Soul Douluo and Nanali.

After chatting for a while, Nanali teased, "If you come straight to our table, those young girls in the throes of first love will be unlucky to run into you."

Sometimes, status is a thick barrier. If Huo Yuhao sits with them, how many people will dare to invite him to the ball later?

Sima Lanxiao will likely have to reassess Huo Yuhao's status and treat him with even greater caution in future plans. Not to mention the others.

Just as Nanali had expected, seeing Huo Yuhao begin to communicate with the Soul Douluo and the others, Sima Lanxiao was somewhat shocked. She frowned and looked at Dai Yun'er beside her, asking in a low voice:

"What does Miss think of Huo Yuhao?"

Watching Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena seamlessly integrate into that circle, Sima Lanxiao realized that his previous understanding of the two was probably wrong. As the Foreign Minister of the Star Luo Federation, he even needed others to give him face to get close to that circle, while those two peers from Douluo Continent could chat and laugh with those important figures so naturally.

Clearly, these two can no longer be regarded as mere juniors. He will need to treat them with even greater care on his journey to Xingluo.

“A dragon among men, but unfortunately not one of us from Xingluo.” Dai Yun’er shook her head with a complicated expression.

People's joys and sorrows are not the same. The stronger the Douluo Federation becomes, the greater the pressure on Star Luo. Sima Lanxiao nodded slightly, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes: "What you say is absolutely right, Miss. If such a person cannot be used by Star Luo, what will become of the future..."

He sighed softly and stopped talking.

Too much talk leads to mistakes, so it's best to avoid gossiping.

He is merely an official in charge of foreign affairs. His job in this exchange activity is simply to do his duty, manage the relationship between the two sides well, and avoid creating any conflicts.

The banquet wouldn't stop because of Huo Yuhao and his companion's actions, but everyone's attention was involuntarily drawn to their circle. There, representatives of the most powerful forces in Douluo Continent were chatting and laughing around a young man. This scene would be deeply etched in the memories of everyone present for a long time to come.

The students from Shrek Academy and Star Luo Academy watched this scene with mixed feelings.

Although the age difference wasn't significant, and the other person was even younger than them, Huo Yuhao had already reached a different level. Such a gap made it impossible for them to even feel jealous.

Looking at Huo Yuhao, who was being fawned over by everyone, Le Zhengyu smiled wryly and took a sip of juice: "This guy has unknowingly reached this level."

"..."

Ye Xinglan also looked at Huo Yuhao in silence and sighed inwardly.

A huge gap can make people lose the courage to catch up, and this is exactly what happened to Huo Yuhao.

A few years ago, they could still fight each other, but now they don't even have the right to fight. It wouldn't be surprising if Huo Yuhao evaluated them from the perspective of an "elder".

Xu Lizhi watched her expression from the side, unsure of what to say, and finally just showed a sad expression.

Xinglan is strong-willed. Ever since her defeat to Huo Yuhao, she has wanted to compete with him again. However, she previously stated that she was willing to follow Huo Yuhao's arrangements during this mission to Xingluo, which clearly shows that she has completely accepted the fact that she is inferior to him.

Perhaps it's a good thing?

The Emotional Douluo observed the Shrek Academy students' emotions and, seeing that they were only somewhat downcast and showed no other emotions, gave a wry smile.

Setbacks are a good thing. At least after failing several times, these students are no longer as arrogant as before and can accept the gap.

The students from the Monster Academy in the Star Luo Envoy exchanged bewildered glances at this scene.

They had assumed this exchange would be a chance for them to have a "friendly conversation" with the number one young talent in the Douluo Federation, but it now seemed that he no longer cared about disputes at their level...

Just as everyone was discussing, a melodious tune suddenly filled the center of the banquet hall. Sima Lanxiao stepped onto the stage again, holding a megaphone, and announced:
"Distinguished guests, we will now begin our first interactive segment of the evening – the dance! Please find your dance partners and enjoy this wonderful time."

The atmosphere among the younger generation was somewhat somber due to Huo Yuhao's behavior, which is when the host needed to ease the tension.

As he finished speaking, the lights in the banquet hall gradually dimmed, leaving only a few soft spotlights rotating above the dance floor.

As the elegant waltz music began, many guests realized what was happening and led their partners onto the dance floor.
