Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 1142 I couldn't help but hum softly (6K)

Is this what is meant by the highest level of talent management?

Huo Yuhao felt the rapidly circulating soul power within his body and nodded in satisfaction.

The employees are willing to work in shifts without the boss having to urge them – that's the ideal operating model!

Of course, this was made possible because Huo Yuhao's six soul spirits shared common interests with him.

Shareholders who hold original shares will spontaneously strive for actions that are beneficial to the listing.

As for the boss who only pays three thousand yuan a month and expects his employees to be his slaves?

Go to hell! The money you earn from working is yours to keep, but the money you earn by slacking off is yours to keep. Not slacking off is already a sign of your conscience, so how could you possibly voluntarily work overtime!

Playing with a dark blue eye, Huo Yuhao's figure darted through the air at high speed, heading towards Shrek Academy.

The eye in his hand was naturally a soul bone produced by the Evil Emperor, and it was an external soul bone of the eye type.

Given Huo Yuhao's current state of expelling spiritual energy with every breath, he definitely cannot absorb this soul bone, but it is of great significance.

Once Huo Yuhao absorbs this soul bone, the total age of his head soul bone will truly reach the million-year level.

The effects of divine equipment formed from soul bones of ten thousand years, one hundred thousand years, and one million years are vastly different.

Like the Sea God Helmet that Sea God Douluo wore before, the gem in the center of the helmet was itself formed from the head soul bone of a ten-thousand-year-old sea soul beast.

This so-called god-level helmet was of extremely poor quality. After being modified into a magic god helmet by Elder Yi, it exploded after withstanding a single blow of the Evil Emperor's Light of Time and Space because it lacked the protection of the Sea God's divine power.

A level above that is Tang San's Sea God Armor, formed from 100,000-year-old soul bones, and the Angel God Armor inherited by Angel God Qian Renxue, which is 99,999 years old.

Huo Yuhao has clearly reached that level, and even surpassed it by a considerable margin.

Even if Huo Yuhao's torso bones were only a hundred thousand years old, they would still be a level higher than Tang San's set of divine equipment.

The reason is simple: Tang San's other divine equipment was indeed formed from 100,000-year-old soul bones.

The only unique soul bone is the skull bone, which is the reward for winning the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Competition ten thousand years ago—a skull bone condensed from fifty thousand years of spiritual wisdom.

Huo Yuhao had already obtained this information from Qian Daoliu, but it only became truly useful after he understood the composition of the divine equipment.

If he were to actually face off against an opponent whose headgear is clearly a level below his own, that might be the breakthrough point for him.

As he thought this, Huo Yuhao's figure seemed to transform into a surging stream, tearing through the sky and rushing towards Shrek Academy's location.

The Commentary on the Waterways Classic states: "Sometimes when a royal decree is urgently issued, one can depart from Baidi in the morning and arrive at Jiangling in the evening, which shows how swift it is to travel downstream." Huo Yuhao has now experienced this firsthand.

Currently, his speed is among the best in Douluo Continent. Even without the release of Qian Daoliu's reserves, few can match his speed.

As the sun began to set, Huo Yuhao's figure finally appeared above the horizon of Shrek City.

"Halt!"

Upon seeing the terrifying streak of light rushing across the sky, Shi Xing shouted loudly, but he was also quite puzzled.

Has the Sun and Moon Empire invaded?

impossible.

As the figure drew closer, Shi Xing's breathing quickened. He could feel the terrifying pressure emanating from it—the pressure of a Super Douluo!

Having experienced numerous major battles, Shi Xing's ability to perceive the level of those with titles has become increasingly formidable.

Even a mere wisp of pressure was enough for Shi Xing to sense the other party's soul power level.

Level 97 or Level 98?

The terrifying pressure, as deep as an abyss and as heavy as a prison, made Shi Xing's expression extremely solemn.

"Senior Shixing, why are you so nervous?"

Just then, Huo Yuhao's signature mental detection sharing notification came through. Shi Xing subconsciously connected to the mental detection and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterward, Shi Xing seemed to realize something, gasped, and coughed violently because the cold air rushed into her trachea and she couldn't catch her breath.

"Cough cough cough."

Shi Xing's face turned blue from coughing. He coughed for a long time before bending over, raising his hand, and pointing at Huo Yuhao with an incredulous expression.

"You're level 97?"

What Shi Xing actually wanted to ask was when Huo Yuhao started his account. If he remembered correctly, the last time he saw Huo Yuhao, the kid had just been granted a title, right?

If Huo Yuhao knew what Shi Xing was thinking, he would probably just chuckle.

What opened?

Is it considered open even if it's not turned off?

Shi Xing is suffering inside. He knew that twin martial souls would have the benefit of rapid level increase after being granted a title, but he never expected it to rise so quickly!

He's in his forties now, almost fifty. In a farming family, he'd be an old man enjoying his grandchildren. He's cultivated his soul power for half his life, and he's only at level ninety-two.

With his soul power cultivation, wherever he goes, people will call him Your Majesty, and whoever comes will be called a prodigy.

Even the Sea God Pavilion reserved a position for him as a prospective elder, just waiting for him to step down from his position as city lord so he could officially take office and enjoy his retirement.

Even so, the realm of Super Douluo is not easy for him to reach. On the bright side, he has a chance to become a Super Douluo in his lifetime, and level 96 or even 97 is not impossible.

But that's a level he'll likely reach when he's not far from dying!

Feeling the genuine pressure of a level 97 Super Douluo emanating from Huo Yuhao, Shi Xing suddenly didn't want to say anything.

"Wow, the younger generation is truly formidable."

Shi Xing shook his head, but soon felt somewhat relieved.

At least he wasn't born in the same era as a monster like Huo Yuhao; otherwise, he would have been suppressed for his entire life and never been able to lift his head.

Furthermore, with Huo Yuhao's return this time, he will surpass the seniority of most of the Shrek Academy elders.

Thinking about it this way, having so many elders with him wasn't a pleasant experience, so this matter doesn't seem so bad after all.

Thinking of this, Shi Xing suddenly felt happy and couldn't help but hum a soft hum.

That's what they say: how can being eliminated by a random person in the preliminary rounds be the same as being eliminated by the random person champion?

If it's rejected by passersby, then it's pure, non-combustible waste.

But if he gets crushed by the King of the Streets, then he'll be a runner-up who narrowly loses to the champion.

Without giving Shi Xing much time to lament the passage of time, Huo Yuhao bid farewell and headed towards the Sea God Pavilion.

Or, to be more precise, his target was the true form of the Sea God Pavilion, that ancient golden tree that blotted out the sky.
