Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 559 Direct Express to Another World (Daily Voyage)

"Yuhao, please purchase another set of glass tube condenser and tube-type heat exchanger."

When He Caitou saw Huo Yuhao take out the list, he quickly told him what experimental equipment he wanted.

"Sure, I'll add you to the next purchase list, but if you mess it up again, you'll have to figure out how to rub it with a bone yourself. That's your punishment for betraying me."

"Okay, okay."

He Caitou knew he was in the wrong, so he chuckled sheepishly and scratched his head.

Huo Yuhao and He Caitou huddled together and whispered to each other. Although Xu Sanshi didn't understand much, he was certain of one thing.

Once the event begins, the positions of Huo Yuhao and He Caitou will likely be reversed, since He Caitou might not be in the wrong anymore at that time.

After leaving Shrek City, the four brothers returned to Shrek Academy in no time.

As dusk settled, a subtle, enchanting atmosphere began to emerge on Seagod Island, surrounded by Seagod Lake, perhaps due to the upcoming Seagod's Fate Blind Date Festival.

On the island, groups of two or three students from Shrek Academy's inner court, dressed in red school uniforms, began to gather at the venue of the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event.

Since Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department was only developed in recent years, the inner court students are mainly focused on Martial Soul techniques. Everyone quickly gathered by the lake.

All the students who gathered there were male, but there were no female students to be seen. The lake was pitch black, and it was difficult to see anything clearly amidst the mist.

Thankfully, I managed to wear the school uniform I just received today, otherwise it would have been really embarrassing.

Huo Yuhao looked at the other students who were all wearing red school uniforms and secretly felt fortunate.

Just then, a large ship appeared from afar, its lights shining brightly. The inner court students recognized it immediately; it was the largest ferry on Sea God Lake. And this ship was already packed with people.

Huo Yuhao had the best eyesight; looking into the distance, he actually saw at least six or seven elders of the Sea God Pavilion on this ship.

Those inner court students who had participated in the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event before knew what it was all about, while some young students who were participating for the first time were full of anticipation.

The life, study and training at the academy are undoubtedly tedious. This activity is a rare opportunity for young male and female students to showcase themselves and find a lover.

The large ship did not row this way, but stopped in the middle of the lake. Just then, beams of light suddenly shot out from the lake water, and under the shimmering light, the first to appear were seventeen beams of light.

"Wow..." Some of the male students on the shore exclaimed in admiration.

All seventeen beams of light were pale gold, and on the surface of the lake from which each beam emerged stood a girl in a long white dress. All seventeen girls wore identical dresses and the same conical hats, with three-foot-long white veils hanging down, completely obscuring their faces.

Bathed in that pale golden light, they looked like fairies in a lake, surrounded by an ethereal beauty, displaying their charm without reservation.

The seventeen girls stood in a row, facing the shore. They stood there quietly, while some of the male students on the shore were already getting impatient.

Well, Huo Yuhao is an exception. He's thinking about how to settle the deal with Xu Jiawei regarding the rare metals ordered by the Star Luo Empire. His personal savings are almost depleted, and he urgently needs to cash out the rare metals from the undead demiplane.

Just then, two stronger white beams of light appeared, and two figures emerged.

On the left is Beibei, wearing a white robe, and on the right is Zhang Lexuan, the senior disciple of Shrek Academy's inner court, wearing a pale yellow dress.

Beibei's voice drifted from afar: "Sea God's Fate at Sea God Lake, Shrek Academy for Ten Thousand Years."

Just as Bei Bei began to deliver her lengthy opening speech, Huo Yuhao lowered his head and started scribbling on the report in his hand. At this moment, Huo Yuhao was completely unaware that one of the seventeen fairies on the lake had quietly clenched her fist.

Huo Yuhao couldn't wait for Bei Bei to chatter on a little longer, as he hadn't finished his business yet.

But how long can an opening speech be? Soon, amidst cheers, the event officially began.

"Now, all male students participating in today's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, please prepare yourselves. Thirty-nine pillars of light will appear in the lake shortly. The students closest to us, the Sea God's fairies, will proceed to the first stage."

"The trainees who finish later in the competition may not be able to get a good ranking in the first round. So, everyone should pay attention. No matter what method you use, as long as you land on the water lily leaf where the light pillar is located, you will have secured a spot."

"But whatever you do, do not fall into the water, or you will be disqualified from continuing to participate in this year's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event."

His explanation was already very clear, and most of the male students on the shore were eager to try it out.

"As long as they don't fall into the water, it's fine, Brother Caitou. If things get too troublesome later, give these people a shock with some soul-guided devices."

Huo Yuhao immediately noticed the loophole that could be exploited and reminded He Caitou. Although Huo Yuhao had previously severely reprimanded He Caitou, he still had to help him out in this way.

Upon hearing this, He Caitou immediately gave Huo Yuhao a thumbs up.

Meanwhile, Beibei had already started the countdown.

"three."

"two."

"one."

"start."

Thirty-eight beams of light suddenly shot out from under the lake surface. These thirty-eight beams of light were divided into three neat rows, each row about five meters apart, and evenly distributed on the lake surface a hundred meters away from the female students.

The lotus leaves were located about 200 meters from the shore.

As soon as Beibei gave the signal to start, the crowd on the shore immediately sprang into action.

The biggest beneficiaries were the four Soul Masters with flying Martial Souls, two of whom were even Seven-Ring Soul Saints, whose strength was extraordinary.

The other trainees also displayed their unique talents.

In an instant, the soul rings on the shore shone brightly, and the soul power surged everywhere, as dazzling as a large number of fireworks suddenly exploding on the ground.

Huo Yuhao finally put away his notebook and decided to test his speed.

A huge soul power thruster suddenly appeared behind He Caitou, causing a powerful brick to fly out.

Two enormous energy jets spewed out thick, scorching energy breaths from beneath his feet, along with multiple jets on his body, propelling him at a speed even faster than a flying-type Soul Saint towards the numerous water lilies.

The powerful energy beam scorched and distorted the air. Combined with its two-meter-tall size and massive propulsion device, it looked like a flying bulldozer as it roared forward.

The inner court students flying ahead instinctively made way for the big guy to pass first.

Oh my god, getting hit like that might send me to another world!
