Reincarnated Rock Prince, you're saying this is Douluo Continent?

Chapter 119: I'll call you little brother, and you'll call me big brother!
"So it was Duke White Tiger in person! My apologies for not recognizing you in person!"

Zhong Li cupped his hands in greeting to Dai Hao, but his expression remained unchanged, and his eyes showed no emotion whatsoever.

Upon seeing this, Dai Hao was filled with doubt.

Even though the Dai family is no longer royalty, they have retained the title of duke, which is still very useful in the Star Luo Empire.

He was the Duke of White Tiger, yet the other party, knowing his identity, showed no respect or fear whatsoever. It was truly... somewhat interesting.

"My name is Barbatos, just a bard."

Upon hearing this, Dai Hao felt disdain. A wandering bard?

He wouldn't believe a bard could have such magnanimity, not even if you beat him to death.

This Barbatos in front of me is up to no good!
Thinking about it carefully, it's understandable that the other person would behave this way when it's the first time they meet.

"What duke or not, I'll call you little brother, and you call me big brother."

Dai Hao waved his hand and said with great pride.

Zhongli: "..."

There's something I'm not sure if I should say!

After saying this, Dai Hao had a vague sense of foreboding, but he didn't think much of it.

"The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament is starting in a few days. Young man, you must be here to watch the competition, right?"

When Dai Hao returned from the army, he heard that both of his sons were Shrek Academy contestants.

Even though Shrek Academy suffered such a heavy blow, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse!

He believed that as long as Dai Yueheng and others performed well this year, they would be able to rebuild Shrek Academy's former glory.

At this time, Dai Hao was unaware that his youngest son's body had been completely destroyed, and his eldest son had lost a leg and was now a cripple.

"exactly!"

Zhongli nodded and said, "If it weren't to watch the match, what would I be doing here?"
"Which team do you support, young man?"

Dai Hao said with a smile.

In previous years, there would have been no need to ask such questions!
It's been a full four thousand years since Douluo Continent and Sun Moon Alliance merged!
The Sun Moon Empire has only won the championship once; all other championships went to Shrek Academy.

Sun Moon Royal Academy can be described as the perennial runner-up...

This year is different. Shrek Academy has suffered an unprecedented "dimensional reduction attack", which has directly sent Shrek Academy back to the "ancient times".

Fortunately, the core of Shrek Academy has not changed, and the situation can be stabilized.

Within a century, Shrek Academy will rise again.

After taking a sip of tea, Zhongli calmly said, "Liyue Academy."

Even if Ma Xiaotao and the others hadn't been injured, and even if all the Shrek Academy members from this year's cohort had gathered, Liyue Academy still wouldn't have lost.

Dai Hao stroked his chin, lost in thought.

He knew about Liyue Academy.

This is Liyue's "academy," but it is different from any other academy and does not have the form of one.

"Liyue was built by the God of War, so naturally, Liyue Academy produces many talented people."

"But Liyue Academy's foundation is really too weak. I wouldn't be surprised if they win the championship next time."

"This year, Liyue Academy may not be able to defeat Shrek Academy."

Dai Hao's analysis wasn't without merit, but he didn't realize that in the face of a 100,000-year-old soul, those so-called foundations were utterly pale and laughable...

After saying this, Dai Hao looked at "Barbatos," wanting to hear what "Barbatos" would have to say.

But to his disappointment, "Barbatos" did not react at all, but simply took another sip of tea without saying a word.

This left Dai Hao completely bewildered.

Is it that his title of Duke of White Tiger is no longer effective, or is there something wrong with what he said?
"Enough, why bother talking so much with this young man?" Dai Hao thought to himself before bowing to Barbatos and saying, "Young brother, I have some things to attend to at home, so I won't stay any longer."

"I will be at the White Tiger Duke's Mansion during this period. If you have some free time, young brother, you are welcome to come and visit the White Tiger Duke's Mansion!"

After saying this, Dai Hao turned and left without waiting for "Barbatos" to say anything.

Watching Dai Hao's retreating figure, Zhong Li didn't say much, only sighed.

Time and life.

As soon as Dai Hao returned to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, he saw the person he least wanted to see: his wife, the White Tiger Duchess!
Duchess Baihu looked anxious, but when she saw Duke Baihu, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.

After all these years, this guy has finally come back!
As if he had thought of something, Dai Hao's joy at returning home turned into eagerness once again.

"As my wife, a princess of the empire, how can you behave so rashly!"

The moment Dai Hao saw Duchess White Tiger, his good mood was immediately ruined.

He didn't give the other person a friendly look at all.

Duchess Baihu clenched her fist, thinking of something more important, and she couldn't be bothered to argue with Dai Hao.

Anyway, she's gotten used to it over the years.

"Dai Hao, it seems like the Shrek team is in trouble!"

"The Shrek team has been in Xingluo City for three days, but Heng'er and Bin'er have not shown up yet."

"Not only that, but the people who came didn't even number seven; they... they looked injured..."

"I'm scared, I'm scared..."

Upon hearing this, Dai Hao was stunned for a moment, then his whole body trembled.

His wife might deceive him in other ways, but she would never dare to hide anything from him regarding Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin.

Both of them are legitimate sons and future heirs to the White Tiger Duke's throne. Isn't this exactly what she wants?

"Is what you said true?"

Although she knew his wife wouldn't lie, she still had to confirm it.

"Dai Hao, I know you hate me, but Heng'er and Bin'er are your legitimate sons, they are innocent!"

"How could I deceive you with something like this?"

"Let's go check on the hotel where they're resting."

Dai Hao glanced at Duchess Baihu and quickly said.

Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin are, after all, his legitimate sons. It's understandable that one of them didn't come; it might mean that the academy's plans have changed.

Neither of them showed up; there might really be a problem.

Seeing Dai Hao's appearance, Duchess White Tiger nodded quickly and followed him to the hotel where Shrek Academy was resting.

In just a short while, the two arrived at the hotel, where Wang Yan received them.

When Wang Yan learned the identities of the two men, a bitter look appeared on his face. How could he possibly answer that?
Dai Yueheng suffered a broken leg and was seriously injured; Dai Huabin died without a complete body...

"Teacher Wang Yan, what exactly happened?"

What's wrong with my two sons?

Duchess Baihu asked anxiously.

Wang Yan glanced at Duchess Baihu, his mouth slightly open, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

He just couldn't bring himself to say it!

The White Tiger lineage trusted Shrek Academy and entrusted their children to Shrek Academy, but what was the result?
"Don't make things difficult for Xiao Wang, let me answer this for you."

Just then, Xuanzi, Yan Shaozhe, Cai Meier, and others led about ten students into the hotel.
