Douluo Continent, I, Huo Yuhao, defy fate with my spiritual eyes.

Dai Yueheng's unusual behavior was naturally noticed. Chen Zifeng, who was on good terms with him, nudged him with his elbow and asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so resentful towards the new junior brother?"

Huo Yuhao also looked over and met Dai Yueheng's gaze.

With his mother's killer right in front of him, even the most composed Dai Yueheng couldn't control his rage.

He suddenly looked at Yan Shaozhe, his voice hoarse and suppressed.

"Dean Yan! I accepted that you prevented me from avenging my mother before, but today you actually brought him before me? What does this mean? Are you trying to break off all relations?"

These words caused a huge stir, and the other Shrek Seven Devils stared at the two in shock.

"The hatred for killing my mother!"

They were all inner court disciples, who usually only focused on cultivation. They had just returned from a training exercise a month ago and hadn't paid much attention to what was happening to the outer court disciples.

Naturally, they were unaware of the grudges and feuds between Huo Yuhao and the Dai family.

Ma Xiaotao knew this; she hadn't participated in the trials because of the evil fire and had been cultivating at the academy.

Yan Shaozhe remained unfazed when confronted with Dai Yueheng's questioning.

"The academy selected Huo Yuhao based on the disciple's potential and performance, and it wasn't targeting you. As for your desire for revenge, then you can do so openly and fairly."

These words seem impartial and fair, but in reality, they show a strong bias towards Huo Yuhao.

It's important to know that fairness is a very interesting requirement. What exactly is fairness?

At least the two of them should be at the same level. If Huo Yuhao couldn't deal with Dai Yueheng with his dual ultimate martial souls, then it could only mean that his cultivation was not proficient enough.

Having gathered information on Huo Yuhao and knowing that Huo Yuhao was extremely powerful, Dai Yueheng still agreed.

Dai Yueheng sneered as he looked at Huo Yuhao with hostility.

"Okay! I know that my mother and the others were very harsh to you and your mother back then, and even caused some bad things. At that time, I was already cultivating outside, searching for a path to become stronger."

He took a deep breath and said boldly.

"But no matter what, she is still my mother. Although she wasn't very good to me, for better or for worse, she gave me life and raised me. I must avenge her! So I will suppress my cultivation and fight you with only a third-ring cultivation! The loser will kowtow and admit their mistake!"

Dai Yueheng was smart; he didn't ask for a life-or-death battle. He could tell from the academy's attitude that they wouldn't allow Huo Yuhao to die, so he had no choice but to kowtow instead.

Yan Shaozhe's eyes flickered. He naturally understood Dai Yueheng's hidden meaning: the power of a sixth-ring soul skill is extremely strong when used with the same level of soul power.

However, after glancing at Huo Yuhao, Yan Shaozhe decided to let Huo Yuhao try. He raised his hand to seal Dai Yueheng's soul power, leaving only about three rings of soul power.

Only after a storm can a rainbow appear. Dai Yueheng has already proposed sealing his soul power, so it would be rather awkward to make any further demands.

And with me there to protect you, nothing will go wrong.

What, you say it's unfair?

Just kidding. A future hopeful seed and one destined to inherit the Duke's mansion, leaving the academy—everyone knows who to favor.

As they created some distance, everyone curiously observed the two people on the field.

One of them was their acknowledged leader, who held immense prestige and sought revenge for his mother.

One is a young genius, favored by the academy, and determined to defend himself.

Huo Yuhao started with the Eternal Freeze Domain, lowering the temperature to provide himself with an excellent environment for dealing damage.

Although Dai Yueheng said he only used three-ring level soul power, level thirty-nine is also three rings.

Furthermore, the Evil-Eyed White Tiger Martial Soul is a top-tier Martial Soul, and it also possesses the combat experience and physical attributes of a Soul Emperor, all of which cannot be disabled.

Huo Yuhao needs to increase his advantages.

With the evil-eyed white tiger possessing him, six perfectly matched soul rings—yellow, purple, black, and yellow—appeared beneath Dai Yueheng's feet.

He showed no mercy, making no attempt to test the waters, and unleashed his full power with his soul skills.

"First Soul Skill: White Tiger Protective Barrier!"

"Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"

"Fifth Soul Skill, White Tiger Demon God Transformation!"

With the support of three consecutive amplification soul skills, Dai Yueheng's muscular physique swelled up again, revealing a patch of fine downy hair under the dazzling white light.

The Duke's Mansion has conducted systematic research on the Evil-Eyed White Tiger Martial Soul, and each of its soul skills is the optimal solution after countless attempts.

Huo Yuhao clenched his fists, solid ice crystals covering his knuckles. He activated his Ice God Body at full power and actually took the initiative to engage in close combat with Dai Yueheng.

To Dai Yueheng's astonishment, Huo Yuhao's physical abilities were actually at the level of a Soul Master, and not only were the ice crystals in his hands hard, but Dai Yueheng's fists also became stiff when they met them.

However, relying on his Soul Emperor body, Dai Yueheng was still able to suppress Huo Yuhao.

With its sharp claws, it swung continuously, shattering the ice crystals in Huo Yuhao's hands into pieces.

Besides close combat, Dai Yueheng also frequently summoned White Tiger Light Wave and White Tiger Meteor Shower to interfere with Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao, without any hesitation, unleashed his Ice Emperor's Wrath and Ice Jade God Break in succession.

Faced with such a powerful soul skill, Dai Yueheng had to be cautious, and Huo Yuhao was only able to barely keep up.

As expected of a Soul Emperor! His technique in using soul power is just right, with not a single bit wasted.

Huo Yuhao sighed inwardly, struggling to resist.

Little did Dai Yueheng know that he was even more shocked, as Huo Yuhao's strength far exceeded his expectations.

No wonder Dai Huabin died at his hands; his ruthlessness and fighting skills were even better than mine.

Three spirit rings flashed indistinctly on Huo Yuhao's body. One of the spirit rings lit up, and everyone's vision blurred for a moment, yet it seemed as if nothing had changed.

Dai Yueheng suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, and his mind began to tremble.

"Oh no, it's a mental attack!" Dai Yueheng was terrified and instinctively moved away to prevent Huo Yuhao from seizing the opportunity.

Strangely, Huo Yuhao didn't actually come up to launch a preemptive attack.

The two separated, and Huo Yuhao rubbed his numb fist, grimacing and groaning.

"call……"

Looks like I'm still young!

After a brief moment of rest, Dai Yueheng was satisfied with the result. He recovered and charged forward again, engaging Huo Yuhao in fierce combat.

Yan Shaozhe looked at the scene with a strange expression, naturally unaffected by Huo Yuhao's mental strength.

In his eyes, Dai Yueheng was fighting against thin air with a smug smile on his face, while Huo Yuhao was calmly sitting next to him meditating to recover his soul power!

What a genius! This kid is incredibly bold.

The audience seemed to be influenced as well, watching intently.

It wasn't that Huo Yuhao's mental power was that great; he only affected Dai Yueheng and even used Divine Might Emperor's Descent to attack Dai Yueheng's mental sea.

This led Dai Yueheng to misjudge, mistaking fantasy for reality.

To prevent others from revealing their weaknesses, Huo Yuhao altered the lighting and shadows, allowing others to see "himself" fighting Dai Yueheng.

What they were actually seeing was an illusion created by the Ice Illusion Mirror, and they wouldn't use their mental power to probe the two people fighting.

This caused everyone to be deceived by Huo Yuhao's methods.

"Fighting a Soul Emperor with only three rings of Soul Power consumes so much of my Soul Power. It seems that I can only defeat a Soul King at most."

Although the battle was not over yet, Huo Yuhao had already begun to reflect on his combat experience.

"Right now, we're relying too much on the power of Ice Emperor Han Ying and neglecting the auxiliary effect of the Golden Eyes of Truth. This has resulted in our attack power being built up solely with soul power, without being developed to its full potential!"
