Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 306 Subtraction (Daily 10,000 words)

After all, humans fear zombie horde tactics and find it unacceptable that comrades who were fighting alongside them just moments before have become enemies; the soul beasts are no different.

Unless the soul fire is completely destroyed, even if the enemy's body is blown to pieces, the opponent only needs to search for nearby bone fragments, and doesn't even need to pay attention to whether the bones they pick up are their own, and can use them after they are put on.

If you can't kill all the enemies instantly, the enemies will only increase in number and become stronger as you fight. Who wouldn't be confused in that situation?

Although it is clearly the work of human beings, if it is allowed to develop on its own, the final destructive power will be comparable to floods, hurricanes, or even more severe natural disasters. The term "undead catastrophe" is by no means an exaggeration.

"Finally, it's my turn to call you."

Wang Dong rubbed his hands excitedly, looked at Huo Yuhao who was still sleeping in bed, and stretched out his sinful little hand.

A pair of fair hands caressed Huo Yuhao's muscular waist, and Wang Dong's cheeks couldn't help but feel a little hot, but she still tried to move her hands to the spot on Huo Yuhao's ticklish spot, and then started scratching with all ten fingers.

"What are you doing?"

Huo Yuhao wasn't sleeping deeply and was immediately woken up by Wang Dong's tickling.

"Me, me, me! You, you!"

Wang Dong, with his legs spread apart, knelt beside Huo Yuhao and was diligently tickling him. Suddenly hearing Huo Yuhao's voice, he was so startled that he immediately sat down behind him, almost falling off the bed.

"Aren't you ticklish?!"

Wang Donglan's big pink eyes were filled with dissatisfaction. She scratched Huo Yuhao a few more times, but in the end, she was defeated by Huo Yuhao's expressionless reaction.

"So you really were planning to ambush me, huh?"

Huo Yuhao reached out and scratched Wang Dong's ticklish spot, startling Wang Dong so much that he quickly rolled off the bed.

"Hehehe!"

Seeing that Huo Yuhao couldn't catch up with him for a while, Wang Dong hid behind the door, made a face, and then swaggered away.

Huo Yuhao simply rolled his eyes and got out of bed.

Their opponents had already been decided, and they were from Qianling Academy. After the auction, Huo Yuhao and the others analyzed the strength of their opponents. Overall, they were teams that would be challenging but not particularly strong.

The captain of Qianling Academy possesses the Thousand Strike Spear, a powerful single-target destructive weapon, and is a five-ring Soul King with two yellow and three purple Soul Rings. The team also includes two female control-type Soul Masters, one with an Ice Giant Bear and the other with a Blazing Tiger, both possessing dual control abilities of ice and fire.

Therefore, the key to this match lies in how to quickly eliminate the opposing captain, a guy with amazing single-target attack power. Once you take him down, the rest will be easy.

As always, Xingluo Square was bustling with people.

The sun was high in the sky, and the competition was about to begin. His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire had once again arrived at the city walls to watch the match. Undoubtedly, his primary focus was on Shrek Academy's performance.

Especially when the Shrek Academy team appeared in the contestant passage guarded by soldiers, the entire arena erupted in cheers and jubilation.

In the two matches Shrek Academy participated in earlier, Huo Yuhao left a very deep impression on all the viewers.

They wanted to see what kind of surprise Shrek Academy would have in store for them today.

In the tournament, if there is a privileged class, then Shrek is the only one who can choose their own order of appearance.

As always, Wang Yan chose to play the first match.

Wearing dark green competition uniforms, the Shrek Academy students got up and walked into the waiting area. Wang Yan nodded to Huo Yuhao, and Huo Yuhao exchanged a glance with Wang Dong before striding onto the competition stage.

From Qianling Academy, another male student came up, appearing to be around twenty years old, tall and slender with a cold, hard expression. He looked like a javelin.

Facing Huo Yuhao, he remained expressionless, but his suddenly accelerated breathing indicated that he was definitely not as relaxed as he appeared.

The lottery begins!

"Shrek Academy vs. Thousand Spirits Academy, team battle!" the referee announced loudly.

Team battles are undoubtedly the most intense and comprehensive competition. They test the overall strength of both sides. Both captains expressed no objection to team battles.

The referee announced in a deep voice, "Both teams, please enter the field."

In the waiting area, Gongyang Mo, Jiang Nannan, Xu Sanshi, Bei Bei, Xiao Xiao, and Wang Dong stood up together and, under Wang Yan's encouraging gaze, filed onto the stage.

He Caitou and Chen Zifeng were detained by Wang Yan. Chen Zifeng was not allowed to play, which was naturally for the later matches. He Caitou was detained because this match did not require too much firepower, which would not fit the rhythm of the upcoming battle.

So the two could only look at each other pitifully and stuff more tangerines into their mouths to relieve their distress.

Today, Shrek Academy's strategy for fighting spirits has undergone a significant change. Now that Ma Xiaotao and Huo Yuhao have both confirmed their Soul Saint identities, how should Huo Yuhao continue to use his mimicry abilities?

Wang Yan's answer was simple: "Let's stop adding and start subtracting."

Their goal was to expose Huo Yuhao's mimicry soul skill. At that time, all seven members of Shrek Academy would be on the field, and although they had already released their soul skills, no one's soul rings would light up. This was even more frightening than adding more soul rings.

Even Xiao Xiao, when releasing her soul skill, can look just as intimidating as a Soul King or Soul Emperor if she has enough aura. After all, no one knows what Xiao Xiao's strength is. Although her martial soul shines brightly, who knows whether Xiao Xiao is using her first or sixth soul skill?

As for whether doing so would confuse other trainees and make them question the true strength of Ma Xiaotao and Huo Yuhao?

Go ahead and question it. If Ma Xiaotao isn't a Soul Saint, what is she? If you're so capable, try knocking down a defensive Soul Douluo with a single Soul Skill before you even reach the Soul Saint realm.

If Huo Yuhao isn't a Soul Saint, then what is he? If you're so capable, why don't you also walk on air and unleash those attacks that even a Soul Saint can't see clearly?

Eighty-one strikes in four seconds, each strike landing precisely on the connection point of the Soul Guidance Fortress, breaking through its defenses without harming the fortress's master in the slightest. With such reaction speed and control over his body, how could you not call him a Soul Saint?

The performance of the two is precisely why Wang Yan dared to boldly ask Shrek Academy to make reductions. Although an opponent whose strength is certain is terrifying, it can ultimately be targeted. But what if the strength of the enemy cannot be determined at all?

Of the seven members of Shrek Academy, not one has released their spirit rings. How can you be sure who is stronger and who is weaker?

Upon reaching the stage, the two sides each took their place. On Shrek Academy's side, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi stood prominently at the very front. Behind them were Wang Dong and Jiang Nannan. At the very back, Gongyang Mo and Xiao Xiao stood on either side, while Huo Yuhao stood in the very center.
