Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao obtains the Flame Emperor template

Chapter 79 Tang San is also an Evil Soul Master

As Lin Jiayi listened to the hall master's meaningful and slightly humorous description, a name immediately popped into his mind.

Of course, it has nothing to do with the Sun and Moon Continent from ten thousand years ago.

Instead, it was Tang San, the Sea God who was born on Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago and eventually ascended to the God Realm.

Some information about Tang San and his amazing experiences have been recorded in books that have been around for nearly a thousand years.

His achievements in martial spirit cultivation need no further explanation; as the Sea God, he was undoubtedly revered as a deity by the people of the Three Kingdoms in the Douluo Continent.

Lin Jiayi's initial understanding of this person came primarily from the history of the "Holy War" that occurred when the Sun Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent first clashed, which can be considered the greatest pain in the hearts of the people of the Sun Moon Continent for thousands of years.

In the early stages of the war, a device emerged that offered some resistance to soul-guided weapons, known as hidden weapons.

Before the collision of the two continents, Tang San, the God of the Sea, was known as the master of hidden weapons and even used them to fight against the gods.

However, this thing was later blasted to pieces by the soul tool... Nevertheless, Lin Jiayi and Jing Hongchen had some knowledge of the history related to Tang San.

Lin Jiayi stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "According to what the sect leader said, I remembered someone."

"Tang San's martial soul seems to be the unpolluted plant-type martial soul Blue Silver Grass, and he also has the Eight Spider Lances with the devouring attribute, which is the most prominent feature of an evil soul master."

Jing Hongchen smiled slightly, looked at Lin Jiayi, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Did those people from Shrek Academy ever say anything that connected Tang San with evil spirit masters?"

"Some people's martial spirit is special from the moment it awakens at the age of six, which means that the way they cultivate their martial spirit is different from ordinary people."

Jing Hongchen squinted: "What we should pay more attention to is how the Soul Master actually walks his cultivation path."

We can't just awaken our martial soul and immediately embark on a path to death.

Lin Jiayi nodded in agreement, "Yes, the hall master is right."

Jing Hongchen snorted lightly: "This hall master firmly believes that whether those who dare not cause trouble are incompetent remains to be verified, but those who wantonly cause trouble must be punished."

Lin Jiayi nodded in agreement, looking like he had learned something, and said earnestly.

"Master, I understand. The main thing is to observe the Soul Master's behavior, character, and temperament before determining whether the other party is evil."

"I will definitely supervise Nana to ensure that she is strict with herself in her future studies and cultivation, has a good character and mindset, uses her own vengeful spirit skills correctly, and does not do anything to harm ordinary people."

Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen slowly shook his head, a subtle smile playing on his lips.

"No, no, no, Jiayi, you may not have truly understood what I mean."

Lin Jiayi was taken aback, a hint of confusion in his eyes: "Master, isn't this how you properly train Nana?"

Jing Hongchen's gaze gradually deepened as he calmly looked into the distance in some unknown direction.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter which faction or academy the Soul Master belongs to, or what path the other party is on."

"What good is just causing trouble? To survive in this world, you need power and connections."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiayi fell into a brief moment of contemplation, then seemed to suddenly understand, exclaiming, "Master, you are absolutely right!"

"With the core strength of our Mingde Hall..." Jing Hongchen's eyes showed a hint of pride.

"With its overall strength, it can rank among the top three on the continent. Students can use their soul skills whenever they want without too much worry. No matter what happens, the academy and Mingde Hall will support them."

Lin Jiayi had many insights; otherwise, how could he become a hall master? Just the theory of needing power and background alone was enough for him to study for a while.

In any case, when it comes to evil spirit masters, a certain pure and innocent person who wishes to remain anonymous has the most authority to speak on the matter.

It possesses all the attributes of devouring, killing domain, and the bizarrely shaped eight spider spears.

However, the only institution that dared not cause trouble was the Mediocre Academy, which never associated this person with anything whatsoever, such as evil spirit masters.

Of course, Tang Ya in the original work also had a similar situation. She went to the old site of Tian Dou City to take revenge but her Devouring attribute was triggered and she was taken away by the Holy Spirit Cult members who happened to be nearby.

When she reappeared, it was already the second Soul Master Competition, and Tang Ya's cultivation level had skyrocketed.

It's easy to see what she did during this time if you think about it for a moment. Without a large enough amount of energy to support her absorption, her cultivation level naturally couldn't have increased so much.

The reason he was able to clear his name later was entirely due to his powerful background.

This demonstrates Shrek Academy's unparalleled fairness and professionalism in redefining the concept of evil spirit masters.

After thinking it through, Lin Jiayi hesitated for a moment before asking softly, "Master, if Shrek Academy does something outrageous again in this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament..."

"Xiao, Yuhao, and Meng are extremely important talents for us, and we cannot accept any risk to them."

Jing Hongchen pondered for a while: "I discussed this issue with Elder Kong when I went to the Hall of Offerings. We will send Elder Ye Yulin to protect us secretly."

He paused, a glint of light flashing in his eyes: "If I can complete the recent research project on 'Subject One' in the coming period of time, I will also personally accompany the team."

"I refuse to believe that with me personally protecting them, Shrek Academy would dare harm our students right in front of me!"

Jing Hongchen couldn't help but snort. He was least afraid of fighting on foreign soil, especially in the capital city of another country. The level nine soul-guided cannon had a great advantage and was extremely intimidating.

After all, if anyone dares to touch his children and cross the line, a level nine soul tool is enough to destroy most of the city.

In the original story, Jing Hongchen carried several trigger-type level nine soul tools with him and was "invited" to the Sea God Pavilion by Mu En. At first, he was quite confident when facing Xuanzi.

It was only when he met Mu En of the Sea God Pavilion that he gradually became a little scared, and when he left, he was even extorted for a piece of Red Dust Protection.

They made a great contribution to the development of Shrek Academy's soul tools.

Jing Hongchen narrowed his eyes: "That drunkard Xuanzi from Shrek Academy, does he dare to act recklessly in front of me and Elder Ye Yulin?"

Hearing the hall master say this, Lin Jiayi felt much more at ease. This would effectively prevent the Chicken Leg Douluo from tearing off his mask and personally intervening after his students were injured or even killed.

Inside the training grounds, besides Huo Yuhao wielding a chainsaw sword and Nana indiscriminately hacking and slashing in the middle of a short blade, there was also a team of lower-grade students wreaking havoc in the nearby area.

Before long, the two teams met.

The opposing team consisted of two people, one of whom was short and stocky, while the other was handsome and had an aristocratic air about him.

Nana turned her head and introduced Huo Yuhao: "Yuhao, that fat guy is quite capable. Because his name is Zhou Xinghao, some students also call him Brother Hao."

"The other person seems to keep a low profile at school; I don't know much about them."

Nana glanced at Huo Yuhao, raised an eyebrow, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"However, a large number of students also call you Brother Hao."

Huo Yuhao nodded upon hearing this and shrugged, saying, "I don't really care about whether they call me 'Brother Hao' or not. I can't help it if they always call me that."

He had some impression of Zhou Xinghao, because this person also had some famous moments.

In the original story, when Sun Moon participated in the second Soul Master Competition.

Through the protective shield of the competition venue, Zhou Xinghao was directly hit by Huo's Eye of Life on his forehead, a hundred-meter rainbow, which instantly exploded, his flesh and blood turning into fragments that flew everywhere.

The opposing team was also having a brief discussion.

Zhou Xinghao looked at the handsome man beside him and whispered, "Brother Lan Xiu, you definitely know that guy. He's the one on the creative list who's holding a bomb gun and a chainsaw sword. Recently, his ranking has even surpassed yours."

"He broke Xiao Hongchen's record, so he's definitely not weak. That girl is also very difficult to deal with; she's the undisputed strongest in her class."

Upon hearing this, Lan Xiu's gaze swept over Huo Yuhao, and he calmly considered for a moment.

"Perhaps Huo Yuhao is just talented in scientific research. We can try to fight them first. We can't be afraid before we even start."

Zhou Xinghao's eyes brightened slightly, and he nodded: "That's right. We'll only know how good Huo Yuhao is after we actually fight him. It'll be a good opportunity to see who the real Brother Hao is."

As soon as he finished speaking, the metal cannon barrels embedded in the chest and arms of Zhou Xinghao's short, stout body instantly retracted, replaced by a dense black light.

His previous form did not represent his full strength. He is about to face Huo Yuhao and is preparing to unleash his trump card.

A cone-shaped metal weight, with a maximum diameter of over one meter, was hurled violently by Zhou Xinghao onto the ground in front of him.

Several metallic clanging sounds rang out, and the metal weight spun violently on the ground, transforming into a large metal base.

Zhou Xinghao leaped up, and the entire base emitted a rich light unique to the Soul Guidance Cannon.

"Haha, let Huo Yuhao see the power of my Second Cannon King."

Zhou Xinghao felt a little excited at the thought of reviving the name "Brother Hao".

As the massive gears inside the base rotated, more than forty steel cannon barrels emerged from the front and sides, making the entire Soul Guidance Cannon Platform look like a metal fortress.

Zhou Xinghao is able to arm himself so easily thanks to his martial spirit, the Mysterious Heavy Turtle.

The Mysterious Heavy Turtle Martial Soul allows him to wield and combine powerful, heavy soul-guided cannons.

With the help of Huo Yuhao, Nana wasn't nervous at all.

"Zhou Xinghao's attack method is similar to Xiao Hongchen's; both involve overwhelming the ground with artillery fire, resulting in extremely high overall explosive power."

"However, these artillery soul masters all have one thing in common: their accuracy is relatively low."

Given Nana's speed, it would be difficult for ordinary turret spirit masters to track her down, posing little threat to her.

Huo Yuhao examined the other party's soul guidance configuration: "His soul guidance cannon needs to be made in advance, while Brother Xiao can condense it with the metal element at any time, so it shouldn't be as bulky as his."

"Yuhao, you seem to understand the ways of the world quite well." Nana glanced at Huo Yuhao again.

"That Xiao Hongchen who boasts that he's invincible among his peers, his arrogance is well-known throughout the school. If you hadn't been practicing with him in the training grounds so often this semester, I wouldn't have even bothered to watch him show off there."

At this moment, Zhou Xinghao controlled the turret base, on which more than forty metal cannons were aimed at Huo Yuhao and Nana.

His third spirit ring flashed, and all the metal cannon barrels gathered light.

"Yuhao, although this fat guy's accuracy isn't high, the power of his single soul-guided cannonballs is much higher than that of others of the same level. An ordinary Soul Master would be crippled after being hit by three or four cannonballs."

Nana knew that Huo Yuhao had not yet broken through to the Soul Master level and that he had a spiritual attribute martial soul, so she was afraid that he would not be able to dodge in time and was instead a little worried about him.

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and used his simulated soul skill to blend himself and Nana into the surrounding environment, achieving an invisibility effect.

"Yuhao, this... invisibility?" Nana was stunned again; it was another foul.

Huo Yuhao smiled calmly: "This is also one of the soul skills of my Spirit Eye Martial Soul, and the effect is not bad."

Faced with the sudden disappearance of the two people, Zhou Xinghao was a little confused. He couldn't see them anymore, so where could he aim his soul-guided cannon?

Lan Xiu immediately made a judgment: "They are both geniuses and must also have the arrogance of geniuses. They would never back down from us and will definitely attack us. They should not be far from where we were just now."

"Zhou Xinghao, just bombard the area where they were standing and the area closest to us with firepower."

"clear."

Zhou Xinghao adjusted the angle of the metal cannon barrel, widening it slightly outwards to increase the area covered by the artillery fire.

Nana leaped into the air, disappearing into the crimson blade light once more.

Using the mental map and his high speed, he dodged the blade's edge while rapidly closing in on Zhou Xinghao.

After Huo Yuhao used the simulated invisibility, he stood still and did not move. Through his mental detection, he sensed that three metal cannonballs would hit him.

He took out his explosive gun and fired three fireballs, intercepting the three shells.

"It exploded out of thin air?"

Zhou Xinghao was shocked because Huo Yuhao had been operating under the cover of a simulation the whole time. He only saw three of his shells explode as they flew through the air.

At this moment, Nana had transformed into a powerful rainbow, swiftly slashing towards Zhou Xinghao.

"Brother Lan Xiu, help me!" Zhou Xinghao cried out in panic.

Nine metal spheres rose up behind Lan Xiu, hovering in the sky, forming an arc of silver light.

These nine clusters of silver light are a special and powerful linked soul tool called Nine Luminaries.

However, Nine Luminaries is not his martial soul, but a soul tool specially designed to complement his martial soul.

Lan Xiu is a spirit-attribute soul master. His martial soul is pure spiritual power, but he does not have an external medium like Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eye.

The difference between a spiritual power martial soul and a spiritual eye is somewhat similar to that between Ling Luochen's ice element and the Ice Jade Scorpion.

On the high platform, Jing Hongchen, who was constantly watching Huo Yuhao's battle, couldn't help but praise him.

"This week, Xinghao and Lanxiu seem to have quite good talent as well."

Lin Jiayi thought for a moment: "Xiao, Yuhao, and Meng have already secured three spots. If we also include Nana, Zhou Xinghao, and Lan Xiu, then the reserve team will only need one more person."

The core area of ​​the Starry Sky Forest.

The three-eyed golden shaded dog, already carrying its pack, scratched its head: Hmm? What's missing about me?
