Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 4: My Tang Clan doesn't value talent, only destiny.

After enjoying the whole roasted rabbit, Tang Ya and Bei Bei both looked completely satisfied, savoring the delicious taste and even wanting to order another soft-boned rabbit.

Let's have a second chance.

Then Tang Ya and Bei Bei showered the roasted rabbit with compliments, saying that the seasoning was superb, deeply flavorful, and irresistible.

Huo Yuhao ignored these words and replied with "I'm glad you're enjoying your meal." He then got up to say goodbye to the two of them and prepared to set off alone to see the true face of the Ten-Year Wind Baboon, which possessed numerous epic titles.

Watching Huo Yuhao's departing figure, Tang Ya sighed with delight, "He was all alone, and he seemed to have a certain foundation in soul power, plus his barbecue skills were so proficient."

"He's practically the perfect cook for our Tang Clan... ptooey, ptooey, the perfect disciple."

Tang Ya blurted out her true feelings without thinking.

If she could attract Huo Yuhao to the Tang Sect, she could have grilled fish every three days and grilled soft-boned rabbit every five days. Tang Ya couldn't imagine how happy that would be. Moreover, soft-boned rabbits have a strong reproductive ability and their numbers are extremely large.

When talking about the exceptional reproductive ability of the Soft-Boned Rabbit, one cannot help but mention a certain Buddha.

Who knows, the five-colored divine light that once radiated unparalleled majesty above Buddha's head may henceforth only have one color, and that is...

When Beibei heard Tang Ya accidentally utter the word "cook," she smiled helplessly and pondered for a moment.

"I can vaguely sense that he possesses level 10 soul power, but beneath his calm and reserved demeanor, there seems to be a ruthless streak. I wonder if it's just my imagination."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ya fell silent for a moment, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes, but she quickly regained her cheerful demeanor and waved her hand with a bright smile.

"It's okay. Everyone has their moments of desperation. Besides, he's such a good cook. He must have experienced something in his childhood that gave him the ability to be self-reliant."

Beibei nodded: "That's true. Judging from his behavior just now, he is somewhat wary of us."

"We can follow him and observe him. So far, his character seems good. I noticed earlier by the stream that he, who was usually reserved, suddenly unleashed an aura comparable to a Great Soul Master. We could consider attracting him to the Tang Sect."

He felt that anyone who was fooled by Huo Yuhao's seemingly reserved, introverted, and weak appearance would surely suffer a great loss.

Tang Ya's eyes lit up with joy: "So, you agree?"

Beibei smiled wryly and said, "The great Tang Clan leader, Miss Tang Ya, our Tang Clan is no longer as prosperous as it once was."

"Before you accepted me as your disciple, you were the only one in the Tang Clan. Your ambition is to strengthen the Tang Clan, so we now attract disciples based on the fundamental principle of 'not looking at talent, but only at fate'."

"Any normal Soul Master we attract can become a backbone of our Tang Sect."

Beibei had read some of the Tang Clan's files and remembered them clearly.

Many years ago, the Tang Clan required talent tests and multiple rounds of assessments to recruit disciples. Only the best of the best were qualified to become disciples of the Tang Clan.

As for now.

Testing talent?

Sorry, it's unpredictable.

Layer upon layer of assessment?

Sorry, no.

Anyone who comes to the Tang Sect is a direct disciple, ranking among the top three in the entire Tang Sect, second only to the sect leader.

Beibei added, "This young Huo has a good character. Judging from his clothes, his family background is probably not very good. Our Tang Sect can only accept disciples like him right now."

"Tell him then that joining our Tang Sect will bring him many benefits. Not only will he be able to directly learn several of the Tang Sect's unique martial arts techniques, but he will also have the opportunity to study at Shrek Academy, the number one academy on the entire continent."

"I would benefit immensely from this; I can't imagine why Brother Huo would refuse."

Looking in the direction Huo Yuhao had left, Bei Bei felt that she had really put a lot of effort into rebuilding the glory of the Tang Sect.

Tang Ya looked at Bei Bei with some curiosity: "I didn't realize you were so cunning."

Beibei dusted off her clothes and chuckled, "You can't say that. After all, Brother Huo roasted fish and rabbit for us. Whether or not we can recruit him into the Tang Sect, we still have to protect him for a while."

The Tang Sect doesn't rely on any geniuses anymore. Ordinary soul masters who seize the opportunity to enter the sect can become top-ranking disciples.

……

At this moment, Huo Yuhao carried his bag and walked into the Star Dou Great Forest.

Whether they can play well depends on this wave of Tianmeng and Yi Lao.

"As the saying goes, there's always a way out, and there's always a way to escape to the forest. I don't think we've taken the wrong road."

As Huo Yuhao was pondering, three options appeared before him.

Option 1: Wait for Tang Ya and Bei Bei to arrive. Reward: One Rejuvenating Powder Recipe.

Option 2: Proceed to the right to confront the same type of Mandragora Snake as Tang San. Reward: One antidote recipe.

[Option 3: Proceed to the left and defeat the Ten-Year Wind Baboon, a dreamer who aspires to seize the destiny of godhood and become the Beast God. Reward: One Foundation Establishment Elixir Recipe]

Hmm? How thoughtful of them to even provide navigation for him.

Huo Yuhao was already planning to go to the left, and now that the option has been presented, it's not bad to take advantage of the free rewards.

Foundation Building Elixir, in Battle Through the Heavens, is a cultivation-aid elixir created by Yao Lao. Its main function is to strengthen the foundation and consolidate the essence, increasing the cultivation speed of the Battle Qi realm through medicinal baths.

Although it's unclear which level of Soul Master the Battle Qi realm corresponds to, given his current Soul Master cultivation, it should be somewhat helpful.

Huo Yuhao chose number three and walked to the left.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a wooden sign by the roadside caught Huo Yuhao's attention: "50 meters ahead you will enter the outer danger zone of the Star Dou Great Forest. High-level soul beasts may appear. Be careful."

Huo Yuhao didn't know if this so-called "high combat power" referred to the ten-year-old Wind Baboon.

Without further hesitation, he touched the White Tiger Dagger, confirmed that the posture for taking the weapon was comfortable, and stepped over the wooden sign by the roadside.

In the original story, Huo Gua was able to fight the Wind Baboon to a standstill with the White Tiger Dagger, and ultimately killed the Wind Baboon with his life. Now that he has a slight grasp of the Eight Extremes Collapse technique, there is no reason why the Wind Baboon should not break apart.

Huo Yuhao was walking down the road when he suddenly felt a slight stinging sensation in his eyes. This was the Spirit Eye Martial Soul's innate ability to warn of danger.

Everything within his sight seemed to slow down, a faint current swirling around his eyes. Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past on the left side of the road ahead.

"Sure enough, it came, and the wind baboon wanted to dance too."

It was a baboon about one meter tall, with brownish-yellow fur all over its body, brown eyes, unusually long arms, sharp claws on its hands, protruding canine teeth on its lips, and a fierce glint in its eyes.

The true "Beast God" makes his appearance, possessing ten years of cultivation, yet without any equipment.

Huo Yuhao took off his glasses to show his respect for the beast.

Throughout the entire Douluo Continent II original work, the two strongest are the most valuable.

One was the strongest Soul King, the Death Messenger, whom the Chicken Leg Douluo, an undercover agent at Shrek Academy, encountered when he led a team to eliminate evil Soul Masters.

The other one is the Wind Baboon, the strongest ten-year soul beast that almost killed Huo Gua.
