Douluo Continent: The Cataclysm of the Dead - Huo Yuhao

Somewhat contrary to the natural order, while the Shrek members were still wearing cloaks just like in the previous life, one person couldn't help but glance behind him, and that person was none other than Dai Huabin.

The direction he was looking in was precisely at Huo Yuhao at that moment.

He seemed eager to verify something, but the current situation forced him to suppress his doubts for the time being. Seeing Dai Huabin's actions, countless eyes fell upon him.

Huo Yuhao's face remained calm and composed, but he was inwardly sneering.

The reason why Shrek Academy was able to maintain such a record in its previous life was that it even appeared to be in a sorry state.

They can't live without themselves, or rather, they can't live without the so-called Wang Dong.

That match at Zhengtian Academy, if it hadn't come at the cost of repeated sacrifices...

Xiao Xiao used the power of Hyotei herself, risking her life, and Wang Dong's identity was exposed.

Shrek will never again enjoy that so-called invincible myth.

In this life, he also wanted to see what fate awaited Shrek Academy without him and these people.

As the Star Luo Emperor announced the start of the competition, the seven somewhat nervous individuals, encouraged by Ma Xiaotao, stepped onto the arena ready to begin.

In this life, without the Tang Clan as a bond, there is a clear sense of division within the group of seven.

One faction is led by veteran Bei Bei, a representative of the new generation, while the other faction is led by Dai Huabin, representing the new generation.

However, at this moment, as they are about to uphold Shrek's honor, there are no apparent conflicts yet.

When he saw the seven people about to take the stage, Emperor Xingluo was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously couldn't help but mutter something.

"Wait a minute, I remember Dai Hao's youngest son is only twelve or thirteen years old, right? He can't possibly be a formal team member, can he?"

And countless people, looking at Shrek's youthful face, were also suspicious of each other.

After all, such youthful faces suggest only one possibility: these are not members of the regular team, but rather members of the qualifying team.

Soon, these seven people, facing an even slightly trembling seven people on the other side, announced Shrek's arrival with a resounding victory.

However, this time there was clearly less of a sense of oppression, or rather, in Huo Yuhao's view, it was quite foolish.

In the very first game, he had already revealed all his cards.

This even made him wonder if there was something wrong with Wang Yan's brain.

As for Wang Yan, he was also somewhat helpless...

Chapter 140 Background: Shrek

Although Xuanzi didn't give a clear answer at the time, in Wang Yan's view, especially after learning about the injuries of Ma Xiaotao and the others,

He felt that with all the injuries so severe, the starting lineup was essentially wiped out.

Under such circumstances, if no new players are brought in, the qualifiers could go wrong if the team relies solely on the reserve players.

Needless to say, we'll have to wait until the knockout stage.

Although he had guessed that Xuanzi might not send anyone, did he have a choice this time? He had no choice.

This is Shrek's chance to make a comeback, or rather, this time, if he doesn't flex his muscles enough when he does.

Then everyone will think that Shrek is weak and easy to bully.

Only by having all the members of the preliminary team participate and bring out their individual strengths can we achieve this.

Perhaps the controversy and underestimation it will attract will be a little less.

Therefore, Wang Yan knew very well that he had no choice at all.

After hearing Xuanzi's words, he seemed to lose his composure. Even the victory in the first match did not ease his mind at all, since the opponents ahead were all tougher than the last.

On the other hand, compared to Shrek Academy's new generation, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy only sent two students.

That's right, these two people are none other than Xiao Hongchen and Huo Yuhao.

To be precise, Huo Yuhao didn't even need to summon Tianmeng's guardian spirit; he only needed to have Tianmeng use its ability to share and detect spiritual information.

Xiao Hongchen couldn't stop laughing, after all, he had already experienced this ability once before. For someone like him who was an absolute Soul Master, Huo Yuhao was practically giving him a cheat code.

With the roar of the cannons, the entire enemy force was wiped out in just one moment, and the time didn't even exceed three seconds.

This move set a new record for the fastest performance in the history of the Elite Soul Master Competition across the entire continent.

If Shrek Academy's new generation had previously given them some insight or made them doubt them, this time it was an absolute crushing defeat. What's even more surprising is that Xiao Hongchen is still only in the reserve team!

Of course, the ace that was originally planned to be revealed in the finals was revealed now, also because of Huo Yuhao's presence.

So, not being too worried, Teacher Ma simply sent Xiao Hongchen up.

However, the others who witnessed all of this were somewhat envious.

After all, this kind of pretentious display is just too dazzling.

Even as he left the stage, Xiao Hongchen couldn't help but sigh.

"This is so awesome! Hahaha, Yuhao, let's not be separated, okay?"

This sudden outpouring of deep affection almost made Huo Yuhao throw up his back.

But when he returned to everyone, Xiao Hongchen reverted to his serious demeanor and spoke lightly.

"Oh dear, this is just a glimpse of my genius; this is only the beginning."

These words, which were somewhat offensive, made the others shake their heads helplessly.

It was precisely this performance by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy that successfully overshadowed the youthful brilliance displayed by Shrek Academy. After all, this overwhelming burst of talent came from someone who wasn't even a regular member of the team.

Just how strong will the Sun Moon Empire's main squad be this time?

This is a question that everyone is curious about.

Wang Yan's face was now extremely pale.

Although I had heard that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was very strong this time, I didn't expect it to be this strong. Moreover, the opponent was only the reserve team, which proved that at least this year and even the next year would have to deal with this freak.

Here's the key question: who will throw out their trump card right away?

This is almost impossible, which proves that the Sun Moon Empire has at least some other trump cards up its sleeve.

Furthermore, his strength, or rather his role, is absolutely superior to Xiao Hongchen's, but a Soul King who is only fourteen or fifteen years old is already terrifying enough.

How strong are their other trump cards?

Realizing this, Wang Yan privately approached Xuanzi and quickly spoke up.

"Elder Xuan, the Sun Moon Empire's lineup this time is too terrifying. If Shrek Academy is in its current state, we will not only lose, but we will also become the background."

Xuanzi, unusually, was now deep in thought. Although he didn't care about Shrek Academy's glory, he couldn't accept the idea of ​​Shrek Academy becoming just a background element.

He was naturally reluctant, but considering the immense effort he had already expended just to report the news, he knew that going back for reinforcements would inevitably lead to further nagging and potentially even punishment.

So Xuanzi gritted his teeth and spoke.

"I trust these little guys. We'll talk about it when things really come to a head."

These words instantly plunged Wang Yan's heart into despair.

Nevertheless, he still had to reassure those in the reserves.

And they encouraged the other party, saying that they had already done a great job. If these words had been spoken before the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy made its debut, they might have been somewhat encouraged, but after seeing the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's performance, they were greatly encouraged.

As everyone fell silent, a sense of unease crept in.

Wang Yan could only grit his teeth and speak at the moment.

"Everyone, don't forget that what you're dealing with right now isn't the Sun and Moon. Once the main team members have recovered, they'll take care of that."

"Right now, you're just facing opponents whose spirit ring configurations aren't even at their best."

These words at least improved everyone's mood a little. At least in their first match, the strongest opponent was only a Soul Master, and their Soul Power was not even as high as Bei Bei and the others, nor was their Soul Ring configuration optimal.

After the heavy pressure eased somewhat, Dai Huabin received bad news.

All the people he sent to monitor Huo Yuhao have disappeared.

This made his face darken. Just as he was about to do something else, the door was pushed open, and out came someone he least wanted to face.

His older brother, Dai Yueheng.

At this moment, Dai Yueheng had a gloomy face and an imposing aura.

Even without speaking, Dai Huabin kept his head down, not daring to utter a single word.

At this moment, Dai Yueheng looked at Dai Huabin as if he were an idiot, and his whole body was filled with rage.

There was no other way; this time, Dai Huabin used people from the Duke's mansion to monitor him.

If the other party were from Shrek Academy, it would be fine; at least we could try to smooth things over. But the other party is from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. If they are determined to expose this matter...

Doesn't this just give the other side a legitimate reason to start a war?

Although he believed in the Star Luo Empire, or rather, he trusted the Star Luo Empire, he had experienced the pressure faced by the Sun Moon Empire on its borders before, so at this moment...

He came up and stared at Dai Huabin for a long time before suddenly a slap rang out.

"I really didn't know you could be this stupid. If I had known, I would have suggested to the academy that we not let you embarrass yourself here."

"Do you know what it means if someone wants to make this a big deal out of nothing?"

Dai Huabin, treated this way, wanted to refute but didn't know how to start. After all, he subconsciously thought that Xingluo City was his own territory, or perhaps he was just used to being arrogant and domineering.

It was Dai Huabin's slap that brought him to his senses: he was facing the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, the Sun Moon Empire behind it, and the Star Luo Empire at present.

While they appear to be locked in a power struggle, only the Star Luo Empire itself knows the pressure it bears.

He couldn't think of that right now; all he felt was that he had lost face to the extreme.

But I don't know how to refute it.

After staring at his good-for-nothing younger brother for a long time, Dai Yueheng finally took a deep breath.

“If you do something stupid again, I will report it to Father.”

Chapter 141 Shrek's First Defeat

There was nothing he could do; as angry as he was, Dai Yueheng understood the situation even better.
