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

She gritted her teeth and forced herself to accelerate, wanting to use the Star Crown to purify the negative influences and break through the domain.

But the more you struggle, the more sluggish it becomes.

Huo Yuhao slowly approached, his sword blade swirling with wind blades. From the moment Xu Jiujiu used the Star Guardian to imprison her, the outcome of this duel was already predetermined.

All the struggles, however long they lasted, were ultimately in vain!

Chapter 107 Little White Hair tries to win her over again, and Xian Lin'er arrives.

Huo Yuhao held the dark gold Yazi Heavy Sword, his posture upright, his gaze calmly fixed on Xu Jiujiu, whose aura was disordered.

"They've run out of tricks, haven't they?"

His tone was gentle and frank, without sarcasm or contempt, simply stating the facts of the established battle situation.

He lowered his eyes for a long time, then nodded calmly.

"Correct."

From beginning to end, she played all her cards.

She used every tactic, strategy, and backup plan that a Star Crown Soul Master could employ without reservation: Star Guardian Absolute Imprisonment, Soul Guidance Cannon Cluster Bombardment, Star Radiance All-Attribute Amplification, and Star Brilliance Illusion Transfer.

However, Huo Yuhao still managed to dismantle and suppress it layer by layer, leaving no way to break through.

She lost completely and accepted her defeat wholeheartedly.

Huo Yuhao raised his sword, and the Yazi Heavy Sword once again collided precisely with Xu Jiujiu's Soul Guidance Spear.

Golden winds and sparks intertwined and burst forth, with tiny ripples of energy spreading across the surface of the arena.

"You are a qualified soldier."

A genuine look of approval flashed across Huo Yuhao's eyes. Regardless of victory or defeat, he always respected every opponent who gave their all.

"In this battle, I will give you the respect that a soldier deserves."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yuhao decided to stop holding back.

With a sin value consistently at 100, it has already reached the perfect threshold for Spirit Release!

"The sword is drawn; it will not return until blood is drawn! Wrathful spirit, Yazi, summon me!"

"A furious glare and a sword in hand—a punishment without mercy!"

The extreme wind surged violently along the greatsword's blade, spreading out with a roar.

High above the arena, the illusory figure of a jackal with a dragon's head, glaring and wielding a sword, materialized and appeared, its ferocious and majestic presence overwhelming the entire arena with its wind pressure.

As Huo Yuhao swung his sword down, a whirlwind of destructive cutting force swept across the entire arena, locking Xu Jiujiu in with three negative effects: bleeding, reduced defense, and slowed speed.

This strike was truly unreserved and all-out!

Huo Yuhao treats every match equally, showing no mercy to any opponent. The best way to respect an opponent is to fight with all one's might.

However, Huo Yuhao had a perfect grasp of the situation and had already calculated the outcome.

Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo, sat guard on the sidelines, his titled aura constantly locking onto the arena, enough to protect Xu Jiujiu's life. This was also the source of his confidence to unleash his ultimate technique with all his might.

Just as the destructive wind blades were about to engulf him, the golden light instantly landed on the ground.

Huang Jinxu strode across the arena, his titled soul power forming a barrier that steadily protected Xu Jiujiu behind him, forcefully blocking the impact of the remaining storm.

My back was slightly stiff for a long time, and the lingering fear in my heart had not subsided.

She truly felt the terrifying destructive power of that attack just now.

If no one had stopped her, her defeat and retreat would not have been as simple as it seemed; she would have been seriously injured!

After a brief silence, he let out a barely perceptible sigh, looked up at the aloof young man on the stage, and spoke frankly:

"Star Luo Team, we concede defeat."

Huang Jinxu gazed at the arena, and despite his helplessness and regret, he still loudly proclaimed the verdict according to the rules:

"Star Luo Royal Academy concedes defeat! A perfect record in both team and individual battles! Shrek Academy team advances to the finals!"

The moment the verdict was announced, the entire Xingluo Square erupted in cheers.

A wave of cheers swept across the area, and the audience was filled with shouts and thunderous applause.

The shouts that resounded through the heavens and earth no longer revolved around the label of "the illegitimate son of the White Tiger Duke." Everyone was shouting only the three words "Huo Yuhao."

Huo Yuhao, through his own strength, tore apart all prejudices and lived out his own name with absolute power, rather than being anyone's vassal or offspring!

Huo Yuhao remained calm, lightly touched the ring with his toes, and gracefully leaped down, returning steadily to his team.

……

After a night's rest, the competition progressed to the finals.

Today's match is between Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy and Shrek Academy. The winner will advance to the final championship!

The stadium was packed with people, and the event was the most popular of all.

Huo Yuhao stepped onto the stage to wait for his turn. His gaze fell on the Sun and Moon Team's formation, then swept over the petite, snow-white figure behind Ma Rulong. His lips twitched slightly involuntarily.

Dressed in a snow-white dress, with fair skin and lively eyes, Meng Hongchen was like a curious little white rabbit, staring at him with bright eyes, eager and impatient.

Before Huo Yuhao could speak, Meng Hongchen had already rushed forward, her words flying out like a machine gun:

"Huo Yuhao! Our Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy officially invites you to join us! We have top-tier soul guidance research and development resources, high-level soul guidance device configurations, exclusive mentors, and massive cultivation resources. Our benefits far surpass those of any other academy on the continent. As long as you are willing to come, all the perks will be top-notch!"

The next instant, a large hand precisely covered her chattering little mouth.

Xiao Hongchen was speechless. Helplessly, he pulled his impulsive younger sister back behind him, his expression returning to its usual calm and composed state. He looked at Huo Yuhao with a restrained yet powerful aura.

"In short, we, representing Sun Moon Academy, sincerely invite you to join us."

Whether you agree or not is up to you.

"Even if you refuse, it doesn't matter. Top geniuses need peers to hone their skills and grow. We'd be happy to be your enemy."

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, his expression calm: "I understand. Your academy's foundation and talent pool are indeed commendable. I..."

Before the words were finished, a swift white figure suddenly swept down from the sky, and a clear female voice landed in mid-air, forcefully interrupting the conversation.

"On behalf of the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy, I formally extend an invitation to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy for in-depth cooperation between the two academies."

Dressed in pure white, with a graceful figure and a cool demeanor, Xian Lin'er stood in mid-air, her black hair swaying slightly in the wind.

Huo Yuhao turned to the side and smiled faintly, his eyes showing no surprise.

Everything was as expected.

After crushing Xingluo and gaining immense fame yesterday, he reported and calculated through Yuzhao and Xianlin'er in advance, concluding that Riyue would definitely recruit him.

Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department started late and has a weaker foundation than Sun Moon Academy. It urgently needs to exchange ideas and learn from others to absorb advanced concepts, while Sun Moon Academy's Soul Guidance Technology is unparalleled on the continent and produces a large number of talented individuals.

Rather than passively being poached, it's better to take the initiative and plan ahead, locking in resources through communication and cooperation, and absorbing the other party's advantages.

Furthermore, Ji Juechen and Jing Ziyan are both top talents in Sun Moon Academy, and this exchange is a perfect solution for both.

Xian Lin'er's gaze did not fall on the Hongchen siblings; her aura was calm and composed as she locked onto Elder Ma, the leader of the Riyue team, her words resounding and clear:

"Both sides will launch a three-year exchange program, sending core disciples to each other for further study, sharing their soul guidance research and development concepts, and refining their combat systems to jointly promote the growth of both departments."

Old Ma's gaze narrowed slightly, his expression calm, and his demeanor measured.

"Your Excellency's sincerity is truly admirable. However, as the team leader, I am not authorized to finalize such a major collaboration between the two academies without your consent. I hope Your Majesty will understand."

His words were perfectly crafted, neither offending Shrek nor compromising his authority.

Xian Lin'er remained calm and spoke with composure:

"No problem. You just need to truthfully convey Shrek Academy's sincerity and invitation for cooperation back to the higher-ups of Sun Moon Academy."

"That's only right." Old Ma nodded slightly, showing perfect courtesy.

The silent power struggle between the two houses has come to an end, and all the undercurrents on the surface have subsided.

Referee Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo, stepped onto the stage at the opportune moment and loudly commanded the audience:

"Semi-final team battle, both teams' players are in position!"

Ma Rulong and Huo Yuhao stared at each other across the distance, their gazes clashing, each concealing their sharpness, before returning to their respective teams to arrange their formations.

In the Shrek Academy's preparation area, Huo Yuhao quickly finalized the roster for this match, demonstrating a clear strategy and well-defined tactical objectives.

"The team for this battle is: Ma Xiaotao, Chen Zifeng, Gongyang Mo, Yao Haoxuan, Gu Yue, Wu Meng, and myself."

Everyone responded immediately, without any objection.

Wang Yan and the substitutes quietly observed the lineup, understanding the situation perfectly.

The rotation of Xi Xi and Ling Luochen for this match may seem like a disadvantage, but it is actually the optimal tactical arrangement.

Xixi has top-tier speed and excellent mobility and control, but her offensive output is relatively weak. When facing a strong offensive lineup of Sun Moon with all members armed with soul tools, her weaknesses will be magnified.

Ling Luochen possesses ice-based control abilities, but her single attribute makes her pure ice control vulnerable to targeted countermeasures under the full coverage of soul-guided firepower, severely limiting her effectiveness.

Conversely, the addition of Gu Yue and Wu Meng perfectly fills the gaps and fits the battle situation.

Gu Yue's control over elemental power is unpredictable, allowing him to switch between various elements at will. His soul skills are unpredictable, and while his soul rings may seem to follow a pattern, his moves are actually ever-changing and versatile in both offense and defense.

Although Wu Meng's soul power is slightly lower than that of the team's main members, he is still the second most ruthless person in the Lionheart Society after Huo Yuhao.
