Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 1: By sheer luck, I managed to pull out the Emperor Yan template.

unlucky!!!

It's one thing to transmigrate into Huo Yuhao's body, but why, upon arriving in Douluo Continent, do I still manage to pull out this filthy thing called "Tang San Template"?

"Could this also be part of that person's plan?"

Inside a woodshed in the White Tiger Duke's mansion, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but shiver, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Looking at the transparent panel in front of me, I could hardly believe my eyes. I felt that the most unfortunate thing in life was that my cheat code had given me the Tang San template.

Name: Huo Yuhao

[Martial Soul: Spirit Eye]

[Cultivation Level: Level 10 Soul Power]

[Template: Tang San Template (Click to roll the dice)]

The template can be shaken ten times a day.

It's been almost a year since I transmigrated into Huo Yuhao's body. In my previous life, as a content creator in the Chinese animation category, I ranked a certain hydrogen god king in the top billion when I was reviewing the combat power rankings of fantasy protagonists across the entire internet. Then, I inexplicably transmigrated to the Douluo Continent.

When he first arrived, his mother, Huo Yun'er, had already passed away. He felt the same heart-wrenching grief as her. From then on, while enduring the Duchess's intermittent suppression, he planned his journey to the Star Dou Great Forest while simultaneously cultivating and playing dice.

Over the course of nearly a year, I've drawn over three thousand templates, including various anime, historical, and fantasy characters.

However, no character templates with the surnames "Xiao, Ye, Shi, Han" were generated.

They're all small fry who won't survive three episodes.

That's bad enough, but today they actually pulled up a template with the surname Tang! How utterly insane!

"This level of filth is truly eye-opening."

Huo Yuhao rubbed his temples, feeling utterly overwhelmed. Just then, a flash of light appeared on the panel, and he thought he had finally drawn a template of some outstanding figure, filled with anticipation.

However, the Buddha's light dissipated.

His expectant gaze froze as the four large characters "Tang San Template" appeared on the panel.

"About the incident where I transmigrated to Douluo Continent and got a Tang San template"

No!

This template is absolutely unacceptable!

Huo Yuhao felt uneasy as soon as he saw the template. He quickly muttered "All evils retreat" before shaking it.

Concentrate your mind on rolling the dice.

The template has changed.

[Template: Grey Wolf Template (from Green Green Grassland)]

Huo Yuhao was stunned. The image of the scarred man in the tattered hat flashed through his mind. He had a wolfish charm and immeasurable strength. He once used the phrase "I love frying pan" to forcefully pull a 1000-ton iron lump. With this strength, he must have been able to break the 54-ton Poseidon Trident.

However, if he had the opportunity, he would prefer to create a human template.

Shake it again!

[Template: Lü Bu Template (from the late Eastern Han Dynasty)]

Huo Yuhao's eyes brightened slightly as he considered a possibility.

"If it's a mythical version of Lu Bu, then it's still worth considering."

However, after checking the panel's description of the Lu Bu template, I discovered that it wasn't some mythical version of Lu Bu, but the real Lu Bu from history.

Not quite right, keep shaking!

Then Huo Yuhao pulled out the [Detective Conan template].

"6".

Huo Yuhao would really be grateful. If he had transmigrated before his mother's death and pulled out the Conan template, he would have suspected that the template's death god physique was working its magic.

There is only one truth: doesn't the person who set this trap know it all too well?

……

The character templates for the next few attempts were all terrible, all of them were small-time characters, either characters who had overcome setbacks or minor villains who had been slapped in the face.

"This is way too dark."

Huo Yuhao's expectations are not those of the T0 or T1 level templates for those who are "having their bones dug out and are on the verge of death".

Even a template of an ordinary person who is "rejected from marriage, a fallen genius, and whose enemies like to laugh cackling" would be fine.

Alternatively, a template of someone who is extremely cautious, avoids direct confrontation unless they have a 98% win rate, and always prefers to stay behind others is acceptable.

Huo Yuhao felt somewhat depressed.

Today was the last chance to draw a template, and a thoughtful look appeared on the young boy's face.

"Could it be that these blue silver grasses on the wall are affecting my luck?"

He noticed the blue silver grass on the wall of the woodshed, and without hesitation, he found a ladder, climbed up, and uprooted all the blue silver grass on the wall, throwing it into the stove to burn.

In a short while, the opportunists were all eliminated.

Huo Yuhao rubbed his hands together, full of anticipation.

摇！

A flash of golden light, and the template changes!

[Template: Emperor Yan Template (from The Great Ruler - The Great Thousand Worlds)]

Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up with joy, and he was immediately delighted.

well!!

There's no time to mourn the Sea God Tang San template anymore. The next template to appear is: Great Thousand Worlds, Lord of Endless Fire Domain, Saint-grade Heavenly Supreme Peak, Flame Emperor.

Compared to the templates obtained from previous draws, this Emperor Yan template is nothing short of a golden legend.

After nearly a year of hard work, day after day, my perseverance finally paid off!

He was lucky enough to pull out the Yan Emperor template.

This person can be considered a veteran in the world of time travel.

Emperor Yan may not rank particularly high among the main characters in the entire fantasy genre, but he would definitely be able to easily defeat Tang San, the God of Shanghai.

Moreover, the strange fire is not afraid of being entangled by blue silver.

After shaking it more than three thousand times, Huo Yuhao was ready to stop.

He didn't plan to gamble anymore. If he missed this Yan Emperor template and didn't get a good template for several more years, Tang Shenwang's taming plan might have been revised several times over by then.

"This template is decided!"

With a thought, Huo Yuhao locked onto this template.

[Congratulations on obtaining the Legacy Template: Emperor Yan Template]

[Panel Description: As the title suggests.]

[The inheritor's introduction: Please have some self-awareness. What's there to introduce? If you were to fight Emperor Yan, one punch from him would send you to the afterlife.]

[Keep it up, young man! I look forward to seeing you go toe-to-toe with Emperor Yan!]

Haha, this introduction is quite interesting.

Compared to Huo Yuhao in the original story, who was clearly the chosen one but was tamed and made a wedding dress for his deceased wife, the God-King, Huo Yuhao's potential for the future was undoubtedly increased several times after obtaining the Yan Emperor template.

The Buddha's Wrathful Lotus gave the Buddha hope for a peaceful future.

Huo Yuhao felt quite pleased with himself as he thought about this.

Just as I was considering when to go to the Starry Sky Forest to talk to the giant bug about our ideals, I suddenly heard a commotion coming from the courtyard not far away.

Huo Yuhao recognized one of the voices; it was his younger brother, Dai Luoli.

"What...what do you want to do?"

"The lady instructed that, to prevent you from slacking off in your cultivation, the boy in the woodshed should be given a nudge every three days, and you should be given a nudge every five days. Today it's your turn."

"Didn't she say she'd only hit me once she saw me? I've been avoiding her all day."

"No, no, no, what Madam means is that she will give you a good scolding every time she sees you, which has nothing to do with giving you a minor scolding every five days."

Huo Yuhao arrived at the courtyard and looked up to see a tall and imposing guard from the Duke's mansion, who looked menacing and had a fierce look in his eyes.

Holding a wooden stick in his right hand, he rhythmically clapped his left palm as he slowly approached his younger brother, Dai Luoli.

At the same time, four options appeared before me.

Option 1: Go up and explain the White Tiger Duke's family rules to the guards: "A guard who disobeys his superiors may be beaten to death." Reward for completion: Fire-Blowing Palm (Low-level Mystic)

Option Two: Turn around and leave. Completion Reward: Exclusive treatment for the early stage of Emperor Yan (cultivation level reduced to level three soul power, vowing never to underestimate the potential of the young)

[Option 3: Go up and pull Dai Luoli behind you, and say to the guard, "I'll take this beating for him." Reward: The classic black robe worn by Emperor Yan.]

Option 4: Slowly walk to the guard's side, lean close to his ear, and whisper, "Duke White Tiger has returned." Completion Reward: Eight Extremes Collapse (High-Level Profound Rank)

Huo Yuhao glanced at the four options.

Hmm... If you choose to explain the family rule of "insubordination will result in death by caning," you'll most likely trigger the guards' red-temperature status and get a beating yourself first.

Moreover, its reward is not as good as option four.

Option 1 cannot be selected at all.

Option two reduces the reward Soul Power to Level 3, which is a complete rip-off, so I'll pass on it.

As for option three, it only rewards a black robe that has no practical use, so it can be eliminated immediately.

Besides, taking a beating for someone else, he's a dignified...

Does the chosen one, Da Huo, look like a victim of great injustice?

Huo Yuhao angrily chose number four, then, with a warm smile like that of a friendly younger brother, slowly walked towards the guards.

When the guard saw that Huo Yuhao dared to approach him, he paused with his wooden stick in hand, a strange look on his face.

"Don't rush me, it'll be a couple of days before I give you a talking-to."

Huo Yuhao still had a shy smile on his face and spoke in a low voice.

"Uncle guard, I'll tell you a secret that will make you jump for joy."

"Huh? What did you say?" The guard looked puzzled.

Huo Yuhao walked up to him, stood on tiptoe, and gently leaned close to his ear.

"The White Tiger Duke has returned."

"What?!"

The guard's expression changed drastically; he was terrified and quickly jumped back several steps.

Then he bowed slightly, clasped his hands in greeting, and made a show of utmost respect and trepidation towards Huo Yuhao and Dai Luoli.

If Duke Baihu returns to his residence, he will learn of Huo Yuhao's existence.

Despite Huo Yuhao's lack of talent, he was still the biological son of the White Tiger Duke, and his status as the Duke's son was undeniable, something a mere guard could not easily violate.

Once the White Tiger Duke discovers that he is beating his own sons, and that both sons are taking turns beating him.

He dared not imagine his fate; it would be absolutely miserable, and he would most likely be slapped to pieces on the spot.

The two brothers had already left the courtyard. Dai Luoli was surprised and curious. What kind of whisper could have such a powerful deterrent effect, causing the guards' attitude to completely reverse?

"Brother, what did you just say to him? It made him cower in fear instantly."

"Nothing much, I just told him some good news: Duke White Tiger is coming back."

"Really? If Father comes back, they won't dare to bully us anymore." Dai Luoli's face was full of joy, already imagining the scene of the two of them standing up and shouting "You wicked servant, speak!"

Huo Yuhao stared at him, hesitated for several seconds, and then slowly spoke.

"It's fake, I'm just guessing."

"...Okay." Although Dai Luoli was somewhat disappointed, she felt that this scare tactic was indeed very effective, and she had learned something from it.

Seeing that he understood, Huo Yuhao patted him on the shoulder.

"You've become a somewhat accomplished Soul Master now, so you need to learn to face some difficulties independently."

After saying that, Huo Yuhao turned around.

He walked towards the north back gate of the Duke's mansion, where Huo Gua ran away from home in the original story. He was going to walk his own path, a small path of cheating... compared to the Yan Emperor template.

As Dai Luoli watched the other person's graceful departure, she felt a sense of bewilderment.

Is this the end of a life of dependence on others?

Huo Yuhao was unaware of Dai Luoli's thoughts. At that moment, a message that made him feel happy appeared on the panel in front of him.

[Optional quest completed. Reward: Eight Extremes Collapse (High-level Profound Rank)]

"Nice. The mechanics of combat skills are based on soul skills. Only self-created soul skills can barely be considered close to them."

"On the way to talk to the big bug about ideals, you can practice the Eight Extremes Collapse in advance, so that you won't end up like Huo Gua in the original work, who made the wind baboon achieve the earth-shattering feat of 'almost killing a god'."

While pondering, Huo Yuhao walked out of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

……

In the realm of the gods, shrouded in mist, lies a palace entirely of azure blue.

Tang San, the Sea God, dressed in a magnificent blue robe, took out a book he had written using his wisdom, which surpassed that of all the gods. The title on the cover was:

On How to Perfectly Tame the Child of Destiny

Tang San's expression was unusually solemn. After a moment of thought, it transformed into a righteous and awe-inspiring smile.

"This rising star's fortune has soared today. It seems that my plan was absolutely correct and in accordance with the will of Heaven. Everything is for the better development of the God Realm. All signs indicate that this child's connection with my Tang family has become even stronger."

"Given this change, I wonder if the original plan of 'dividing the soul into two parts' was safe enough."

"The Star Dou Great Forest is currently part of the plan. If any major changes occur, we can divide up an additional portion of the soul, and we're also considering developing the ocean area."

Tang San revealed another eerie smile, and using the combined divine power of the Sea God and the Asura God, he opened the encrypted solution document. The title page read:

[To seize absolute power in the divine realm, this God-King needs a capable general to assist him. This rising star in the lower realm is a good choice. With a little strategy, he can be brought into my fold to achieve my grand plan for ten thousand years. This can also be considered an opportunity for this young man.]

[Step 1: Through the Duchess of this generation, guide the soul of the Child of Destiny's mother to ascend to the divine realm, using hatred to propel the Child of Destiny's growth. (Completed √)]

[Step Two: Join the Tang Sect and enter Shrek Academy...]

[Step 3: Xiao Qi disguises herself as a man, meets him, and their relationship blossoms...]

……

"What a perfect plan. If I weren't the God-King, the enforcer of the divine realm, and required to set an example by not interfering in the affairs of the mortal world, how could I have wronged Little Seven?"

Tang San flipped through a series of meticulous plans, a smirk playing on his lips as he marveled at his own brilliant scheme and astonishing wisdom.

……

Outside the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

"Hmm, the air in Douluo Continent has a high hydrogen content."

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath. Perhaps it was because he had drawn the Yan Emperor template today, but he was in a good mood and felt that the sun was shining particularly brightly.

He took out a pair of glasses and put them on, slightly obscuring his bright, expressive eyes.

Looking back at this magnificent palace with its golden roof and red gate, the golden glazed tiles shimmered dazzlingly in the sunlight.

He sensed the original owner's deepest long-cherished wish.

A strong will to become a great Soul Master, and a firm determination to avenge his mother.

"Don't worry, with our luck, becoming gods is a sure thing. I will also avenge our mother."

It's not just the Duke's mansion, but also the pristine and virtuous Buddha of Tang.

Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes behind his glasses, then looked away, slung his bag over his shoulder, and stepped onto the official road.

At the same time, four options appeared before him.

[Option 1: Endure hardship and bide your time at the White Tiger Duke's mansion. Reward: A genuine calligraphy piece by Emperor Yan, bearing the inscription "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; never underestimate a young man's potential."]

Option Two: Head north to find your missing father. Reward: An antique black ring exclusive to Emperor Yan.

Note: Only the ring is provided; the Soul of the Medicine Master is not provided.

Option 3: Return to the manor and kneel before the Duchess, professing loyalty. Completion reward: Combat Skill: Absorb Palm - Incomplete Version (Low-level Xuan Rank, can be trained in two fingers - Rich Woman's Happy Finger Version).

Option Four: Staying in the Duke's mansion is detrimental in every way; a decisive decision is made to run away from home in search of a great opportunity. Reward: Depends on the magnitude of the opportunity (the bolder the opportunity, the greater the reward).
