Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 566 Yuhao's Connections (Daily 10,000 words)

He Caitou chuckled in mid-air, and another soul-guided cannon appeared on his shoulder.

Before the female trainees could react, he had already fired a shot. The shot was aimless, but he used the strong propulsion to send himself flying backward.

It was used entirely as a soul-guided cannon as a soul-guided propulsion device, which not only made it faster but also allowed it to fly backwards, eliminating the need for Huo Yuhao to carry a soul-guided propulsion device on his chest.

In the two and a half years, Huo Yuhao was not the only one who made progress at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

He Caitou usually keeps a low profile, but his expertise in soul tools is absolutely second to none among all the students.

"He Caitou!" Fan Yu shouted angrily. It was because He Caitou's shells had coincidentally come towards them. Although they landed in the water a few meters away from the ferry, they still splashed up a cloud of water.

Qian Duoduo laughed heartily and said, "That kid Cai Tou is getting worse and worse. It must be because of those two guys, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, who corrupted him."

Beibei was already so angry at He Caitou that her vision went black, and now, hearing Qian Duoduo's loud voice, her vision went black again, and her gaze toward He Caitou turned vicious.

Xu Sanshi also looked bewildered and aggrieved. This was clearly an innocent bystander being shot! Cai Tou had been with Yu Hao for the past two years, what did it have to do with me?

Besides, when it comes to cunning, who can compare to Yuhao? Just hearing about his methods for dealing with evil spirit masters sends chills down their spines. He scouts the location before killing, his plans are as meticulous as a spider weaving a web. He kills, disposes of the body, destroys the evidence, and even performs a ritual to send the body away, leaving no trace of trouble.

How can you shift the blame onto yourself like this?

He Caitou landed smoothly on the water lily leaf, a far cry from his earlier recklessness. After landing, he chuckled and waved to the girls opposite him. But his gaze remained fixed on Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao was also quite astonished when she first saw him activate the device. Now, facing his intense gaze, her face flushed, and she lowered her head. But in her mind, a black bald head began to sway back and forth.

She seemed to see again the big, clumsy guy who had stood in front of her on the arena of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament more than four years ago. More than two years had passed; why had he gotten even darker?

If He Caitou knew what Xiao Xiao was thinking at this moment, he would definitely burst into tears and say, "It's nighttime! Who wouldn't be a little dark then..."

The pace quickened noticeably in the next segment, with the male trainees taking turns to perform, each displaying their unique talents. Some seemed to be trying to take shortcuts, but perhaps He Caitou had left too deep an impression on the girls.

None of these opportunistic male trainees fared well; two more fell into the water during the process. After this first stage, the original thirty-nine male trainees were reduced to thirty-six.

Among the female students, three were still wearing bamboo hats. Among them was the female student Huo Yuhao had noticed earlier who had a single hundred-year soul ring that connected to a thousand-year soul ring.

Suppressing his curiosity to sneak a peek using his mental detection, Huo Yuhao was eager to try.

This is only the first step, no rush, let's play around with her!

After this first segment of mutual appreciation, the emotions of all the inner court students were completely stirred up. Huo Yuhao, standing in the first row, could clearly feel the pairs of eyes radiating fiery passion around him and behind him.

Most of the male trainees were gazing at the girls they admired. Among the female trainees who had already revealed their faces, Jiang Nannan was still the most beautiful. Her exquisite beauty was so stunning that she almost outshone everyone else.

However, almost everyone knew about the complicated relationship between Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan. Therefore, most people didn't pay much attention to her, after all, including Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan had never shown any interest in any male students.

Next came the reshuffling. The rankings were recalculated based on the number of female trainees' hats removed in the first round. Huo Yuhao, with his excellent performance, rightfully took the first place in the first row.

"Next is the second part," Beibei announced loudly. "After getting to know each other in the first part, it's time for the girls to express who they like. The rules are simple: each female student will receive a switch."

Huo Yuhao remembered clearly that Bei Bei had told them before that this second stage required the least amount of time, but it was an important test for the male trainees.

Because in this round, no matter how strong your skills are or how outstanding you are, if no female trainee leaves a light on for you, you will be eliminated immediately.

After all, there are significantly more male trainees than female trainees. Therefore, this step was originally intended to simplify the situation.

Huo Yuhao was the first to bear the brunt; he was the first to face a major test.

"Please, all you sea goddess fairies, consider this carefully. You have one minute. Please make sure you've thought it through! And I want to emphasize that if you don't leave your light on for any of the thirty-six male students, it means you will be forfeiting this matchmaking event and withdrawing from Sea God Lake."

The female trainees each had their own plans. They were all very quiet, about 100 meters apart, but no one knew whether they already had someone they liked.

A minute passed quickly. At Zhang Lexuan's prompting, Beibei continued hosting.

"Alright, let's begin the second segment, 'Love at First Sight.' First, please, all you sea goddess fairies, leave your lamps on for Huo Yuhao."

"In this second stage, leaving your light on doesn't necessarily mean you have to choose him in the end. As long as you make a good impression, you can give him a chance, and also give yourself a chance. I believe he will also pay attention to the girls who leave their lights on for him. Let's begin."

As the countdown ended, the entire Poseidon Lake fell into a deathly silence. All the lights, including those of Wufeng, shone brightly, and not a single one went out.

Wu Feng just pursed his lips at Huo Yuhao, but still didn't turn off the light. It seems that this girl has figured something out from Ning Ge and is hoping that Huo Yuhao can help her.

The reason why the other female students kept their lights on for Huo Yuhao was even simpler: it was because of Huo Yuhao's connections!

Although Huo Yuhao might not necessarily want this connection.

Who could resist a sixteen-year-old boy with immense strength, possessing a 100,000-year-old soul ring, and at the Soul King level, who could walk on air and was shrouded in a misty aura?

A man's mystique is fatal to women, and Huo Yuhao is the most mysterious one. Most of the female students present wanted to keep Huo Yuhao and peel back the layers of what he had hidden deep inside in the next round.

In other words, Huo Yuhao didn't know what these people were thinking, otherwise he would have turned around and run away without saying a word.

Women are indeed terrifying.
