Douluo Continent: The Peerless Hunting Heavenly Lord, Huo Yuhao!

But the next second, something unexpected happened!

An invisible spiritual force penetrated the alloy defense and invaded his consciousness!

My vision was instantly distorted violently, everything in the world was upside down and disordered, and extreme soreness and numbness swept over my whole body.

His body convulsed in pain instinctively, yet a manic laugh uncontrollably welled up in his eyes. He wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, and the extreme contradiction tormented him until he collapsed instantly, his whole body soaked in cold sweat.

"Oh my, you look so cute when you're angry." Huo Xiaohei's voice was full of mischievous amusement. "Get even angrier, I haven't had enough yet~"

Huo Yuhao sat in the audience, expressionless, inwardly cursing: This is really awful, even more deserving of a beating than me.

Situ Yu was completely driven mad by the torment. His eyes were bloodshot, and he recklessly launched an all-around, no-dead-angle soul-guided bombardment, trying to clear the entire field with brute force.

"Tsk, this is so boring. I couldn't even keep playing for a little while."

Huo Xiaohei chuckled, and the dark, illusory wings of the night raven behind him unfurled, causing him to soar into the air and hover in mid-air above the arena. His demeanor instantly transformed from that of a mischievous boy to one of dark mystery.

Night Raven Wings!

He raised his hand, lifted the black revolver, and slowly pulled the trigger.

Empty sound.

It was a dud.

"Sorry, sorry, it was on purpose." Huo Xiaohei raised an eyebrow and chuckled in the air, full of the pleasure of a successful prank. "I wanted to play with you a little longer, but you're too bad."

As the mockery ended, his gaze narrowed slightly, and he pointed the gun at the out-of-control Situ Yu below.

"Game over, Boundless Barrage – Sleeping Grenade!"

boom!

The deep gunshot rang out, followed by a fleeting purple glint.

Even with Situ Yu's soul-guided fortress layered with defenses, it was no match for the erosion that was specific to the spiritual level.

Situ Yu froze, his massive body crashing to the ground as he lost consciousness.

The entire room fell silent.

A moment later, the teacher leading the Yunluo Academy team turned pale, strode forward, gritted his teeth, and loudly announced: "Yunluo Advanced Soul Master Academy... surrenders!"

With the captain eliminated in a single match and all the team members defeated, there was no point in continuing the fight; going back on the field would only bring further humiliation.

Huo Xiaohei's interest vanished instantly, his excitement turning into listlessness, and he landed lazily.

He bowed slightly to the audience, his posture both elegant and manic, his deep voice amplified through the soul-guided speaker, echoing throughout the entire plaza:

"Ladies and gentlemen, did you enjoy this performance? If not, Little Black will be very unhappy~"

Huo Yuhao: ...I was completely dumbfounded.

This posture, these lines, this manic yet elegant temperament, this feeling of being a director, combined with the essence of Ah-ha's pleasure, all of it has been thoroughly learned by this clone!

The stands erupted in cheers!

On the Sun Moon Empire's contestant stand, the white-haired girl clutched her chest, her cheeks flushed crimson, and slumped into her seat as if her body had gone limp, her eyes filled with adoration: "Ahhh! He's so incredibly charming! He's both wicked and handsome, I'm completely smitten!"

Xiao Hongchen's face was as dark as Huo Xiaohei's...

The cheers on the stage almost lifted the dome of Xingluo Square. The audience was still immersed in the shocking scene of Huo Xiaohei toying with his opponent and easily crushing the entire audience.

It was the first time anyone had ever seen someone treat the Soul Fighting Arena like a stage for amusement, handling the entire match with ease and effortlessly defeating an entire strong team. It was truly an eye-opening experience.

The referee raised his flag high and announced loudly: "Shrek Academy wins this match!"

The black mist slowly dissipated, and Huo Xiaohei swaggered over to Huo Yuhao's side, his ruby-like eyes crinkling as he leaned in with a cheeky grin, "How was it, Huo Baibai? Was my performance just now spectacular enough? The entire audience was mesmerized."

Huo Yuhao pinched the Night Raven mask at his waist with his fingertips, his expression indifferent, offering no praise whatsoever: "Not good at all, embarrassing."

Huo Xiaohei's face immediately fell, and he snorted angrily, "Hmph, you have no idea what pleasure is! I'm too lazy to argue with you. I'm going back to my mask to sleep. Don't call me out to work!"

The thick black mist instantly enveloped the boy's figure, then vanished without a trace, leaving only the raven-shaped half-mask lying quietly in the spot.

The moment Huo Yuhao bent down to pick up the mask, countless vivid, lively, and even slightly mischievous battle memories flooded into his mind like a tidal wave. Every joke on stage and every time he deliberately teased his opponent clearly appeared in his mind.

Huo Yuhao's face stiffened, while his mind went completely blank.

Soul Masters from across the continent, powerful figures from various factions, and several Title Douluo all witnessed Huo Xiaohei's outrageous actions, and now his reputation has been completely tarnished by his clone.

Wang Yan quickly stepped forward, looking at the mask in Huo Yuhao's hand, hesitant to speak, his eyes full of headache.

"Yuhao, what is he doing..." Wang Yan hesitated, Huo Yuhao had told him the truth, but Huo Xiaohei's outrageous fighting style and exit were just too damn outrageous!

There's a Title Douluo here, aren't you being a bit too arrogant?!

Dai Huabin looked at Huo Yuhao with a hint of shock in her eyes. What had she just seen? The Fool's Thousand Faces of a Joyful Fate!

Is it possible to have two destinies?

Does your star god allow it?!

"Huh? It's a clone?" Elder Ma from the Sun Moon Empire looked at Huo Yuhao with a deep gaze. What kind of soul skill could create a clone with independent consciousness?

Just as the various forces were secretly speculating, a bone-chillingly cold pressure suddenly locked onto Huo Yuhao, and the heavy earth-type soul power made the surrounding air stagnate.

It was none other than the old bastard Taotie Douluo Xuanzi, whose old face was now filled with barely suppressed rage.

"Boy, tell me the truth about this clone's origins, or I won't be able to protect you." Xuanzi's tone was cold and hard, and the pressure of a Title Douluo enveloped Huo Yuhao in layers.

He looked at Huo Yuhao with icy eyes, because on the way back, Xuanzi suddenly realized that Huo Yuhao's soul skill was clearly very suitable for investigation, so why were Xu Sanshi, Tang San, Dai Heng, and Bei Bei injured?

They were clearly together!!

Huo Yuhao's lips curled into a faint, cold smile. His mental energy steadily withstood the pressure without wavering: "It's just an ability I gained through my own fortuitous encounter."

"Don't try to fool me, tell me the truth!" Xuanzi's soul power intensified again, and fine cracks appeared on the stone slabs on the ground.

The audience members who were about to leave immediately stopped and stood there watching with great interest.

The Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire watched with great interest. A conflict erupting between elders and core disciples within Shrek Academy—such a spectacle was a rare treat! It was truly…incredibly interesting!!

Just as Huo Yuhao was about to speak in rebuttal, a lazy and casual voice suddenly interrupted, and an invisible force gently rippled through, directly dissolving the pressure released by Xuanzi.

"Elder Xuan, it's far too domineering to use your power to oppress my disciple."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Du Bu Si, dressed in black robes, slowly appear and casually block Huo Yuhao's way.

Seeing this, Xuanzi angrily shouted, "Poison Undying! What does it have to do with your Body Sect to discipline my own academy disciples?" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized the key point, and his pupils shrank sharply. But before he could sort out his thoughts, Poison Undying threw a punch without warning.

Unleashing his immense physical strength without reservation, Xuanzi was caught off guard and flew backward like a cannonball, embedding himself heavily in the thick bluestone city wall at the edge of the field. Half of his body was stuck in the gap between the bricks, looking like an inlaid brick.

Poison Undying stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of disdain: "My disciples are not for outsiders to arbitrarily reprimand or pressure."

"Poison won't kill!" Xuanzi's earth-yellow soul power surged, the Taotie Divine Ox Martial Soul completely possessed him, his thick beast arms were revealed, and his ferocious aura rose wildly, clearly indicating that he was going to make a move on the spot.

"What? You still want to fight me here?" Poisonous Undying sneered, his powerful physical aura spreading out around him. "I'll put my words here: if Huo Yuhao suffers even the slightest grievance today, I will personally come to his door and make sure Shrek Academy never has a peaceful day again."

"Please calm down, both of you." A helpless voice came from the Star Luo offering seat. Shattered Star Douluo slowly walked out, his gaze mainly falling on Xuanzi. "This place is the core square of Star Luo Imperial City. Tens of thousands of people and soul masters from various countries have gathered here. It is inappropriate for two titled Douluos to make a move and affect the innocent."

Xuanzi's anger intensified, and he felt deeply aggrieved. Du Busi was the current adversary in the conflict, and the Star Luo Empire was originally an ally of Shrek Academy. Not only did Shattered Star Douluo not help him, but he also tried to dissuade him, clearly watching coldly from the sidelines and even secretly enjoying Shrek Academy's misfortune.

He stared intently at Du Busi, then abruptly turned to Huo Yuhao, uttering a scathing remark: "Huo Yuhao, you colluded with outsiders and betrayed Shrek Academy!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao laughed in anger, feeling that the other party's words were an insult to his intelligence. Helpless, he took half a step forward and said in a calm but clear tone, "Elder Xuan, let me ask you two questions."

"You brat, how dare you ask such a question!" Xuanzi roared angrily.

"First, is Shrek Academy a school for teaching and learning, or a powerful sect that controls its own territory? Second, does Shrek City's independent military system and laws equate to an empire?" Huo Yuhao asked calmly, his voice carrying throughout the entire square, clearly audible to everyone.

Poison Undying watched with interest, arms crossed. He had long harbored doubts about Shrek Academy's vague positioning, and now he could take advantage of Huo Yuhao's question to hear Xuanzi's answer.

Shrek Academy has always touted itself as an educational institution, yet it possesses its own city and private army, operating outside the control of the three major empires, making its stance inherently ambiguous.

Elder Ma, standing on the high platform of the Sun Moon Empire, spoke calmly, his tone carrying a hint of watching the spectacle: "Gluttonous Douluo, the junior's question is simple. You may answer it, so that all parties may have a clear understanding."

A glint of light flashed in Shattered Star Douluo's eyes, and he readily agreed.

Huo Yuhao's two questions hit the nail on the head, directly pointing out Shrek Academy's most sensitive political stance.

If its positioning is ambiguous, Shrek Academy will always be an unstable threat to the major empires such as Star Luo and Sun Moon. Today it can join forces to fight against Sun Moon, but in the future it may turn around and threaten the rule of the empire.

Under pressure from both sides, Xuanzi was caught in a dilemma and could only grit his teeth and mutter, "Naturally, it is the academy that teaches and nurtures people!"

"Since it's just an academy, how can there be any talk of betrayal?" Huo Yuhao's voice suddenly turned cold, his logic building step by step. "Every year, countless Shrek graduates go to work in the two great empires and various sects. Does that mean they all betray the academy?"

With just one sentence, Xuanzi's attempt at moral blackmail was completely thwarted.

Huo Yuhao's actions were akin to moral blackmail. Of course, the best way to deal with moral blackmail is to use moral blackmail in return, dragging in all the Shrek Academy graduates who joined the Empire and sects.

Ants are nothing, but an endless number of ants is enough to kill an elephant.

If Xuanzi insists that Huo Yuhao is a traitor, it is tantamount to denying all Shrek Academy alumni who are serving outside the academy. In the future, those graduates who hold high positions can make things difficult for the Shrek Academy Supervisory Group at every turn, and the endless troubles will be enough to drag down the entire academy.

"You brat, how dare you argue with such twisted logic!" Xuanzi was rendered speechless, his soul power surging, and he was about to unleash his soul skill to attack.

Du Busi raised his hand and easily grasped his wrist, his smile gentle yet his strength firm, locking the other's movements. He turned to Huo Yuhao and said, "Yuhao, continue speaking, don't hold back."

Shattered Star Douluo stood quietly to the side, observing coldly, secretly satisfied. As long as the two did not fight each other in the imperial city, the more the internal conflict of Shrek Academy intensified, the more advantageous it would be for Star Luo.

Huo Yuhao bowed slightly and nodded to Du Busi, making his stance clear to everyone: "Thank you, teacher."
