Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 264 Facing the formidable foe in his heart (Daily Wishlist)

A few seconds later, Dai Yueheng was completely overwhelmed by Ma Xiaotao's fierce offensive and was defeated. At the same time, Ling Luochen also firmly controlled Chen Zifeng. With the help of mental detection, Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen had a great advantage over opponents of the same level.

Xixi looked left and right and realized that she was the only one left on the field. She couldn't help but sigh.

At this point, she was already on her own, and no matter how much she didn't want to admit it, continuing to persist would be futile.

Left with no other option, Xixi could only raise her hands and quickly retreat, ending this Shrek civil war.

competition is over.

This can be described as a complete victory.

On Ma Xiaotao's side, only Beibei was eliminated as a substitute, while on Dai Yueheng's side, only Xixi remained, who couldn't withstand more than a few moves after Ma Xiaotao had freed her hands.

Dai Yueheng's eyes were filled with astonishment. He was counting on Xixi and Yao Haoxuan to finish dealing with the others and come to help him and Chen Zifeng. How come his teammates were letting him down at this time?

His gaze swept over Huo Yuhao, Xiao Xiao, and He Caitou, pondering which of the three was the mastermind behind this situation.

Huo Yuhao's combat power is exaggerated. With the combined amplification of Gongyang Mo and He Caitou, he can suppress Jiang Nannan, a Soul Master of Agility and Attack. Even Xixi can only fight Huo Yuhao when she uses her Soul Skill. Most of the time, she will be chased around by Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao's defensive techniques were full of mystery. No matter how fast Xixi's attacks were, they could be easily blocked by Huo Yuhao with his katana, and even the force of the attacks could be completely neutralized. This was something that Dai Yueheng could observe.

But if that were all, their team shouldn't have lost so badly.

Ma Xiaotao's team displayed an extremely high level of teamwork from the very beginning. This was evident from their initial exchange tactics, suggesting that they were well-integrated. But who was the leader?

And Ma Xiaotao's ability to see through all of my attacks today.

Dai Yueheng frowned deeply; today's sparring match was simply bizarre.

Elder Xuan descended from the sky with several students he had rescued, a slight smile on his face.

"Hurry up, the loser accepts the punishment, and I'll give you another chance."

"I'm a pig!"

Dai Yueheng shouted without hesitation, his facial muscles twitching slightly.

How embarrassing!

Yao Haoxuan, Chen Zifeng, and Xixi also shouted out their slogans helplessly.

Wang Dong and Xu Sanshi exchanged a glance and smiled wryly.

What else can we do? Those two unlucky guys were sent out in the first place, so it's not a big loss for them to shout.

Jiang Nannan felt a little embarrassed and whispered, "I'm a pig."

When Xu Sanshi heard that soft, melodious voice, it was like he'd been injected with adrenaline. He immediately started fawning over Jiang Nannan, saying with a fawning smile, "You truly are the girl I like. Even when you call yourself a pig, you have such charm."

Although Jiang Nannan kicked Xu Sanshi hard in the butt right afterward, Xu Sanshi was clearly enjoying it. He even ran up to Bei Bei with a smug look on his face, making Bei Bei feel extremely embarrassed.

What are you so excited about?

Elder Xuan waved his chicken leg: "Alright, I'll give you an hour to rest. We'll resume the fight after an hour, so that some people won't be dissatisfied."

Upon hearing that there was still a confrontation, the inner court disciples reacted quickly. Without bothering to review the previous battle, they immediately sat down and began to recover their soul power.

The exchange just now has taken its toll on everyone to varying degrees. Taking the time to recover will not only restore our cultivation levels but also calm our emotions and prepare us for the next battle.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao and the others quickly sat down to recover. His consumption in this battle was not particularly high, but the consumption was relatively high when he attached the Holy Flame Sword Blade to He Caitou's more than thirty cannons at the beginning. However, He Caitou and Xiao Xiao's soul power reserves were really about to run out.

Huo Yuhao also gained a lot from this battle. Although he chased after Jiang Nannan and attacked her, and even gained the upper hand in the battle against Xixi, a Soul King, only he knew the actual pressure he was under.

His opponents have become increasingly bizarre. If his previous opponents were at most samurai generals, his current opponents must be at least on par with headless warriors or the aquatic sword saint 'Rin'.

It's not that Xixi's opponent is as scary as those ghosts and monsters, but the key is that compared to Zhu Lu and Jiang Nannan, whom Huo Yuhao had dealt with before, Xixi's attack methods already contain all sorts of strange elemental attacks.

Faced with Zhu Lu's Netherworld Hundred Claws or Jiang Nannan's leg techniques that resembled steel whips, no matter how swift they were, these things could only be considered physical attacks in the end. As long as Huo Yuhao reacted quickly enough, he could eventually break them down into ordinary attacks and block and deflect them one by one.

However, Huo Yuhao was at a loss when faced with Bei Bei's Thunder Dragon Claw. He could neither use lightning to retaliate nor forcefully block with his sword. In many cases, he could only rely on his agile movements to dodge.

Xixi is an expert in this field. Not only is she as fast as lightning and her attacks are so fast that they are dazzling, but she also brings a variety of irresistible forces to her attacks, such as shooting two silent lightning arrows at him from behind.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't kept his mental probes constantly, he'd probably be riddled with thorns by Xixi by now. That's why Huo Yuhao chose to use the mechanical spear against Xixi again; he was genuinely worried he wouldn't be able to react quickly enough if he didn't keep a certain distance from this woman.

I need to become stronger; I still have many shortcomings.

He needs to find a way to adapt his fighting style to the Soul Fighting Mode of Douluo Continent. He can no longer blindly rely on Ashina's unique skills. He must find a way to make another breakthrough. After all, Huo Yuhao has never encountered a skill in Ashina where someone could shoot an arrow at him from behind while they were fighting fiercely.

Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged on the ground, temporarily ending his mental process, but he remained calm and composed, his eyes closed.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's thoughts had drifted to a blank battle arena, where only Xixi stood quietly.

Facing the formidable foe in one's heart, engaging in relentless battles within the recollections of those fights, allowing the memories of those battles to nourish oneself, perhaps in the process of repeated deadly combat, one can discover a more profound philosophy of martial arts hidden within?

"What... what is this?"

Elder Xuan was the first to notice Huo Yuhao's unusual behavior, and soon everyone else noticed that something was wrong with Huo Yuhao.

"Is Yuhao entering deep meditation again?"

He Caitou stammered, his face filled with disbelief.

There's not much to write about the civil war; it'll end tomorrow. It's more interesting to write about the top-tier Soul King storyline.
