Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 154 Confused (Daily 10,000 words)

Wang Dong's words made Dai Huabin even angrier. It was Huo Yuhao again, it was Huo Yuhao again. Was he really that worthless?

No, impossible. He was determined to surpass his ancestors. What difference was there between these people and the lowly servants in his mansion? They were all destined to be trampled under his feet!

Enraged, Dai Huabin's second spirit ring lit up, its orange light shining brightly. The White Tiger Blazing Light Wave once again spewed from Dai Huabin's mouth, accurately blasting towards Wang Dong!

At this moment, Dai Huabin was still in the White Tiger Vajra Transformation state. The power of the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave was further enhanced, reaching a new level. It emitted a dazzling white light, containing violent power.

Seeing Dai Huabin unleash the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave, a hint of surprise flashed in Wang Dong's eyes. He really hadn't expected Dai Huabin to lose his composure at this moment.

With your hundred-year-old spirit ring, what makes you think you can compete with my thousand-year-old spirit ring?

Golden halos began to rise from the dazzling blue wings on Wang Dong's back. He raised both arms at the same time, bringing them together with the forewings. The next moment, the wings of Wang Dong's Goddess of Light Butterfly turned completely into a brilliant gold. With a gentle flap of the wings, the patterns on the wings vibrated out small balls of light, which accurately struck the White Tiger's Blazing Light Wave.

The two golden orbs of light exploded the moment they came into contact with the White Tiger's Blazing Light Wave, disappearing along with the White Tiger's Blazing Light Wave emitted by Dai Huabin. But immediately afterward, the remaining seven or eight small golden orbs of light emitted by Wang Dong's butterfly wings exploded one after another on Dai Huabin's body, like chasing stars and the moon.

In terms of burst damage alone, Dai Huabin, whose thousand-year soul skill only enhances his own attributes, is really not as good as Wang Dong, who possesses a thousand-year attack soul skill!

"Boom boom boom boom."

A series of rapid and continuous explosions rang out. Even with the enhancement of the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, which greatly increased his defense, Dai Huabin was still severely injured when he was bombarded face-to-face by such a series of thousand-year soul skills.

But Wang Dong's hands didn't stop moving!

The Clear Sky Hammer, which only requires physical strength and not soul power, reappeared. Wang Dong stopped using it to hit people and instead swung the Clear Sky Hammer around with his left foot as the pivot. The Clear Sky Hammer flew out of his hand again and slammed heavily into Dai Huabin's chest!

"puff!"

After suffering a series of heavy blows, Dai Huabin finally succumbed to the damage, coughing up a mouthful of blood and collapsing heavily to the ground.

Seeing Dai Huabin rashly unleash his second soul skill, Wang Yan knew that the match was already over. No matter how strong your defense is, if your White Tiger Blazing Light Wave can't compete with others, you can only rely on your body to withstand the attack.

Others lose soul power, you lose health. Do you think you're Xie Huanyue, the more fat you have, the more you can take a beating?

How many kilograms can you eat in one meal? Do you think you can handle that much?

Silently shaking his head, Wang Yan sighed. If Dai Huabin hadn't been so enraged and thrown into a state of panic by Wang Dong's words during the competition, the outcome of this battle might still be uncertain.

Unfortunately, he got impatient. As the saying goes, "Don't rush things, or you'll make mistakes." This is exactly the point.

Although Dai Huabin suffered a crushing defeat this time, Wang Yan had already decided what to teach in the first lesson of the new semester. It would be a shame not to use such a useful and painful classic case to teach these restless young soul masters.

Every day, their blood boils with excitement, and if they disagree with someone, they're ready to fight on the Soul Arena. They're easily swayed by a few persuasive words from their enemies, forgetting their own predicament. They end up losing battles that they might have won cleanly and decisively. In this light, having Wang Dong and Dai Huabin fight like this might not be such a bad thing after all.

Wang Yan stroked his chin. Why can't these kids learn from Huo Yuhao?

Forget it.

Wang Yan sighed. This guy was a real handful. He was fighting the Netherworld White Tiger alone with a knife. Don't be fooled by his lack of harsh words on the Soul Battle Stage. He didn't seem as arrogant as Dai Huabin, but he did things that were more outrageous than anyone else.

After a period of treatment by a healing-type Soul Master, Dai Huabin, who had fainted for the second time within three days, slowly woke up. However, his eyes were filled with confusion, and he was completely stunned.

In terms of soul power cultivation, he is about the same as Ning Tian from the support class next door, so there's nothing to brag about.

In terms of combat experience, Wang Dong broke his mentality in just a few words, and the second-ring cultivator defeated the third-ring cultivator.

In terms of his own trump cards, Huo Yuhao, alone with a single sword, directly shattered the Netherworld White Tiger that Huo Yuhao and Zhu Lu possessed. The fact that he managed to escape with his life was only because the academy acted quickly enough.

After all his pride was completely negated, Dai Huabin's expression was no longer one of anger or resentment, but rather one of emptiness and confusion. He didn't know what value he still had, or what he was worth affirming.

Dai Huabin's values ​​were distorted from a young age. Because his martial spirit was the White Tiger and he was the eldest son, he was respected. His mother, the Duchess, would nag him every day that strength was everything and that with strength, one could have everything.

From a young age, he only had three people as his focus: his older brother, his father, and his ancestors.

His self-confidence began to sprout when he began to boss around the servants under the Duchess's tutelage.

His confidence began to grow when he heard that his cultivation speed had surpassed that of his elder brother, father, and ancestors.

When he heard that the Martial Soul Fusion Skill that he and Zhu Lu could easily perform was a skill that neither his father nor his brother could perform, his confidence began to swell.

If Dai Huabin can defeat all his rivals with overwhelming force after enrolling in school and achieve the top score in his grade, his confidence will reach a new level. He may truly cultivate an absolute confidence that he is invincible.

No matter what setbacks he encounters, his experiences before the age of twelve will become an inexhaustible source of strength for Dai Huabin. Those servants, ordinary people, and prodigies whom he trampled underfoot will become nourishment for Dai Huabin to regain his strength.

Unfortunately, this is Shrek Academy, a place where monsters are the least lacking.

After suffering two consecutive crushing defeats, other prodigies might at most feel discouraged but would be able to regroup and bounce back. But not Dai Huabin.

His heart was filled with an absolute thirst for power; there was no memory of any hindrance that allowed him to draw power from within.

The Duchess's attitude toward him stemmed from his upbringing, not from love. Her brother was always incredibly arrogant whenever they met, and her father was rarely seen, only returning occasionally and staying for short periods.

As for friendship, it was something that Dai Huabin considered dispensable. He didn't even care about family ties, so why would he care about friendship?

The reason he values ​​Zhu Lu is because she can unleash a martial soul fusion skill with him, not because of love. The reason the two can stay together is essentially because Dai Huabin has absolute respect and desire for power.

That's why, when the only benchmark and anchor in his inner world was easily destroyed by the two people, Dai Huabin's spirits completely collapsed. His bewildered and helpless state, not knowing what to do next, was the best proof of this.
