Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, am the Master of Spirit

Chapter 217 Reserve Team Selection: Everyone Has Their Own Hidden agendas
The Fire Dragon King reappeared and looked at Huo Yuhao and the Water Dragon King, saying:

"It seems you've successfully merged."

Then, she glanced at the Water Dragon King's condition and said with delight:

"amazing!"

"Xiao Shui has actually stopped decaying, albeit very weakly, but her soul is gradually recovering!"

"Human, how did you do that?!"

Huo Yuhao looked at her and said:
"That's how Soul Spirit technology works; it's equal for both Soul Masters and Soul Spirits, and both will progress together."

"Well, it's hard to explain in detail, just get the general idea."

The Fire Dragon King was very pleased and said to him:

"It doesn't matter, as long as Xiao Shui is developing in a positive direction."

"Alright! Since you've gone this far, I'll keep my promise."

"Human, catch!"

The Fire Dragon King roared to the sky, and its crimson dragon corpse was like a blazing sun buried in the soil, scorching the surrounding soil until it cracked and then melted.

A fiery red crown landed in front of Huo Yuhao and was steadily lifted into the air by telekinesis.

This crown is different from the spatial crown. At its core is a miniature sun, and golden flames flow across the glass-like crown. Strange energies are intertwined within it.

Just like the spatial crown, Huo Yuhao saw a lot of knowledge related to flames simply by looking at it.

The Fire Dragon King looked weakly at Huo Yuhao and said:

"Human boy, this is the Crown of Fire."

"I'm entrusting my body to you."

The Water Dragon King was very sad, and his voice trembled slightly.

"Ah Huo, are you leaving?"

The Fire Dragon King nodded weakly and said:
"Yes! We can finally leave."

"Hahaha."

"Little Water, show me the new world."

"I'm going to go to the underworld and give that bastard of light a good beating!"

"I won't rest in peace until I've skinned him alive!"

"I originally wanted to say some farewell words, but after thinking it over, I found that I couldn't say them."

"Haha, as you know, I'm best at fighting, I don't know anything about literature."

"So, goodbye."

After the Fire Dragon King finished speaking his last words, she closed her bright golden eyes as if relieved, gradually turning into specks of light and disappearing into nothingness.

She did not choose to end things with a grand funeral like the Space Dragon King, but simply watched the Water Dragon King gently disappear from the world.

The Water Dragon King couldn't help but reach out, trying to grab those points of light, but they passed through his palm and gradually disappeared from his sight.

"Goodnight, Ah Huo."

Huo Yuhao watched quietly from the side, choosing not to disturb them.

Soon, the Water Dragon King turned to look at Huo Yuhao and said:
"Next, I will hand over the Crown of Water to you."

The Water Dragon King extended his fair hand toward his own dragon corpse, and deep blue soul power connected the two.

Because her dragon body and bloodline are well preserved, she does not need to burn her divine soul like the Fire Dragon King to gather a crown.

With a series of dragon roars, her dragon body underwent changes similar to those of the Space Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King.

Before Huo Yuhao's eyes seemed to be a vast expanse of surging water, the entire space a deep blue, a place to be without any other color.

The whole process didn't last long; a crown similar to that of the Fire Dragon King appeared on the Water Dragon King's head.

The crown was entirely azure blue, with ripples emanating from it from time to time. A layer of white mist shrouded the crown, radiating the extreme cold.

Huo Yuhao gazed at the two magnificent works of art before him, and gently tapped the air with his finger. The air then spread out in colorful ripples, swallowing the Water Crown and the Fire Crown into them respectively.

A crown, which is similar in nature to a divine position, cannot be placed in a storage soul tool, nor is the Divine Might Space suitable. It is best to store it in the Dream Space.

"Next up are two dragon corpses."

"I'm entrusting Elder Yi to you."

"However, remember to leave a portion at the bottom of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to maintain its ecological environment."

"Such a beautiful place cannot be destroyed."

Electrolux's aged voice echoed in the sea of ​​spirits.

"Ah."

"no problem."

Subsequently, the gate to the undead demiplane opened at the bottom of the spring, absorbing the remains of the Fire Dragon King and the Water Dragon King, and leaving a small portion to maintain the balance of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Over the years, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well has evolved into its own cycle. In fact, even if two corpses are lost, as long as the spring water is not excessively extracted, this treasure basin will continue to exist.

However, as a precaution, Huo Yuhao left behind some of the remains in case of any problems.

"Miss Water Dragon King, it's time for us to leave and return to the Sea of ​​Spirit."

The Water Dragon King took one last look at the Fire Dragon King's corpse, nodded gently to Huo Yuhao, and then transformed into a stream of water that merged into Huo Yuhao's body.

"You don't need to call me that anymore, just call me Ah Shui."

Without the support of the power of the water and fire dragons, the spring water above his head began to fall downwards, filling the small space. Huo Yuhao used his telekinesis to swim upstream against the current.

Back on the ground, Huo Yuhao shut down the Eye of Destiny and took a deep breath of fresh air.

In fact, he possesses the life-giving metal within him, which allows him to maintain his physiological functions solely through his life force; breathing air is an instinct he has developed over the years.

"Master! You're back!"

Youyou and Bajiao immediately waved their leaves to greet Huo Yuhao, but Huo Yuhao ignored the two plants and looked at the two 100,000-year soul rings floating above the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, saying:

"Youyou, how long can these two 100,000-year soul rings last?"

She gently shook the pink petals and said:

"The Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire is rich in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and can be maintained for a long time."

Huo Yuhao nodded. The Sun Moon Empire already had a soul tool that could accommodate soul rings; they had already developed this technology long ago.

Strictly speaking, Huo Yuhao did not kill the Fiery Apricot and the Golden Melon of the Earth Dragon, and there were no traces of Huo Yuhao on them, so they can be considered unclaimed soul rings.

The two 100,000-year soul rings can be used for research on artificial soul spirits.

If we are truly to usher in an era where everyone can become a Soul Master, then artificial Soul Spirits will be indispensable.

Huo Yuhao looked at the Dew of Longing for Youyou and Bajiao, which was the most suitable immortal herb for him here.

"Does Master wish to consume the Dew of Longing?"

"Just drink the dew on the leaves."

With a thought, Huo Yuhao precisely plucked all the dew from the leaf and sent it into the Divine Might Space, intending to drink it back at the Passion Camp.

After the dew was collected, the long-awaited dew withered at an alarming rate, leaving behind only a few seeds.

"Let's find a place to plant these seeds."

Youyou immediately obeyed the order, and a beam of purple light sent several seeds to a suitable place in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for cultivation, waiting for the next germination.

"I'm leaving now. Later, some people who claim to be enthusiastic will come in here."

“If you cooperate with all their actions, and you are able to take human form in the future, I may consider sending you to Xilu City.”

Upon hearing this, Youyou and Bajiao trembled and shouted enthusiastically:

"Praise the master!"

Huo Yuhao patted his black trench coat and left from where he had just come in. Passing through the layer of white light, he saw that the flames outside were still burning, and the colorful poisonous miasma from other places was slowly filling the area. It wouldn't be long before the flames went out, and this place would once again become a death zone.

However, Huo Yuhao now has the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Pill, so the poisonous miasma is not a problem.

Huo Yuhao quickly returned to the Passion Camp, where Kiritsugu Emiya greeted him at the entrance.

"Boss, is it resolved?"

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly and said, "That's about it."

"There is no resistance inside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. There are also two plant-type soul beasts at the level of 100,000 years old. Now they are enthusiastic people."

"After you go inside, the two of them will assist you."

"this is for you."

Huo Yuhao took out the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Pill from his storage soul tool and said:

"This bead can shield you from poisonous miasma. Use it to enter the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."

"Then, we'll use the properties of this bead to remove the poison array in Sunset Forest."

Emiya Kiritsugu carefully took the purple bead and said:

"Boss, let's get started now."

Huo Yuhao waved his hand at him and said:

"Go."

Kiritsugu Emiya has always been a man of action. After obtaining the purple bead, he immediately recruited men and set off for Sunset Forest with a large number of soul tools.

Huo Yuhao arrived at Su Tong's tent. Su Tong was cultivating at the moment, and when she sensed Huo Yuhao's arrival, she slowly opened her eyes.

"Teacher, is everything settled?"

Huo Yuhao stretched and said, "More or less."

"Once the third group at the root removes the poison array, Passion can completely take over the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."

"When the time comes, go inside and see if there are any suitable medicinal herbs."

"However, in theory, the immortal herbs inside should not be very effective for you, and their help should not be as great as the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow."

"Did you use up the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow I gave you last time?" "There's still plenty here."

Su Tong shook her head and said, "Not yet. The energy of the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow is enormous, and I haven't fully digested it yet."

Huo Yuhao sat down on the bed opposite Su Tong, then sat cross-legged, took out a drop of the "Longing for Autumn Dew" and said:
"Absorb it slowly, there's no need to rush."

"You have plenty of time."

"I need to eat a magical herb, which will take some time. Once I've absorbed it, we'll head to the far north."

Su Tong nodded and said:
"Do you want me to protect the teacher?"

Huo Yuhao tilted his head back and drank the dew, saying:

"Need not."

"You should focus on cultivating your mental strength."

After speaking, Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and began to feel the sudden coolness in his body. His mental power began to rise at a visible speed, and his spiritual eyes seemed to have undergone some changes.

…………

The entrance to the Soul Fighting Zone at Shrek Academy.

An elderly man in gray robes leisurely waited for the core disciples to assemble, holding a chicken leg in his hand.

Soon, the core disciples of Shrek Academy's outer court arrived before Xuanzi, led by their teacher.

Wang Yan, the homeroom teacher of Class 1, Grade 1, walked up to Xuanzi and said respectfully:

"Elder Xuan, everyone has arrived."

Just as Xuanzi was about to take another bite of the chicken leg, he heard a clear female voice coming from the student group.

"Master, stop eating and let's start the assessment quickly."

"Watch out or I'll confiscate all your chicken legs."

Xuanzi's previously lazy demeanor immediately straightened, and he said with a smile:
"I know, I know."

"Let's talk this out, don't take my chicken leg."

"Ahem, everyone, enter the Soul Fighting Zone."

Xuanzi was the first to enter the Soul Battle Zone, and the teachers immediately led their students to follow.

Meanwhile, Xu Sanshi from the fifth-grade area said to Beibei:

"Was that Huo Sui'er, a second-grader, just now?"

Beibei said with a solemn expression:

"Yes."

"He is Elder Xuan's beloved disciple."

"His strength is extremely terrifying; he is probably a high-level Soul Venerable."

"I heard that he went into seclusion for a while recently."

Xu Sanshi smacked his lips and said:

"Would Elder Xuan give her special treatment?"

Beibei glanced at Xu Sanshi and said:
"There's absolutely no need for it."

"If she wants to, Elder Xuan has plenty of ways to get her into the regular team."

Why should I compete with you for the reserve team?

Xu Sanshi thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense."

"But, the group at the very back looks like they're first-year students, right?"

"Why are they joining in the fun too?"

Beibei sighed and said:
"You don't even look at any Magic Network messages."

"First graders are allowed to participate this year."

"Take it easy."

"There are a bunch of monsters in the first grade this year."

"If we're not careful, neither of us might make it into the reserve team."

Xu Sanshi said with a relaxed expression:

"Don't be so nervous, that guy named Medmos is indeed very powerful."

"Even if we brothers team up, we can't beat him alone?"

Beibei gave the first-grade students a deep look and said:

"It's hard to say."

"Maidemus, what kind of assessment do you think it will be like?"

Bai'er asked the question to the person next to him with a curious look.

The character "井" (well) appeared on Medemos's forehead, which is said to indicate:
"Shut up!"

"No matter what the assessment is like, just rely on your skills to get through it."

Tibo, standing beside her, nodded in agreement and said:
"Xiaobai, don't worry."

"We will go all the way."

Soon, all the students arrived at the Soul Fighting Area. Xuanzi stood in the center and addressed the crowd:
"The rules are very simple, there are no tricks or convoluted rules."

"It's a free-for-all; if you surrender or get rescued, you're eliminated."

"You have two minutes to discuss. After two minutes, I will say 'start' and then we will begin."

"Teachers, please leave."

A commotion suddenly broke out on the field, and everyone was shocked by the simple and brutal rules.

Medemos crossed his arms, his golden eyes flashing with fighting spirit, and said:

"Pure combat?"

"Just to my liking."

Feng Jin stood on tiptoe and looked towards the second-grade area, saying:

"Butterfly and White Calamity, once it starts, we'll try to get close to Sister Sui."

"The six of us immediately banded together."

Xia Die nodded slightly, and Bai E smiled and said:

"Ok!"

Medemus remained silent, clearly agreeing with the proposal.

Second grade area.

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao were both taken aback. Wang Dong said:
"Then what's the point of knitting?"

"When Sister Sui and that guy named Medmus start attacking, who among us can dodge them fast enough?!"

"Good heavens! This time, surviving is a victory!"

Xiao Xiao angrily punched Wang Dong on the head and said:
"What did you say?!"

"Can't you have any ambition at all?"

"Listen to me, go find Sister Nan Nan as soon as the fight starts."

"Sister Nan's invincible invulnerability guarantees that we will not be harmed in any way!"

"Let's sneak in and attack! Target the last team!"

Wang Dong covered his head and said:

"you're right!"

In fifth grade, Beibei and Xu Sanshi stood together.

Xu Sanshi glanced at the surrounding scenery and said:
"Depend on!"

"Is this how you play?"

"Dude, you're a defense-type!"

"Beibei, we're counting on you this time!"

"If you win, I'll treat you to dinner!"

Beibei was also unsure:
"This is going to be difficult."

"Since there are two of us from the Fourth Ring Road, they'll definitely target us first."

"Let's ask Jiang Nannan. She's also in fifth grade. We can team up."

Jiang Nannan had just received a signal from Xiao Xiao and the others, and after hearing Bei Bei's words, she said:

"can."

At the edge of the field, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu stood together, preparing to unleash their Martial Soul Fusion Technique at the start.

Dai Huabin's injuries have not yet healed, and his legs are still trembling.

He knelt at the entrance of Shrek Academy for several days, and Moon had almost forgotten about him. It wasn't until he took Bai Er and the others out to eat that he saw the guy again.

Mu En was too lazy to argue with Dai Huabin, so he let him go back.

"Zhu Lu, activate the Martial Soul Fusion Skill in a moment, and disperse Maidemus and the others first!"

"I don't expect to win! Nor do I want Medemos and his team to win!"

Zhu Lu looked at Dai Huabin with some worry, and tightly grasped Dai Huabin's broad hand.
