Douluo: Huo Yuhao Returns from Devouring the Stars

Kong Deming stood silently under the big tree and sighed. He just felt that he was not strong enough to compete with the two peerless masters of Haotian Sect. Otherwise, they would not have left Xingluo City in such a miserable state today.

After sorting out his thoughts, Kong Deming said in a loud voice: "Okay, now let's go back to the Sun Moon Empire."

Huo Yuhao, who was leaning against the tree stump, suddenly had a brilliant molten golden color in his eyes, and his aura suddenly changed. This scene was seen by Kong Deming and Hong Chen.

"What's wrong, Yuhao?" Kong Deming asked in confusion.

Huo Yuhao deliberately frowned, looked up at the azure sky, and then slowly spun around before feigning excitement and saying, "Master Kong, I seem to... sense the guidance of destiny again!"

"Guidance of destiny?" Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen asked in shock.

They all knew that every time Huo Yuhao sensed the guidance of destiny, he would definitely have a great harvest, such as picking up an ultimate ice martial spirit from a corpse on the roadside, or picking up two rare fairy herbs while being blown away by a blizzard.

And now, Huo Yuhao felt the guidance of destiny again!

Could it be that Yuhao is about to have another heaven-defying opportunity?

Xiao Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao with some anticipation, hoping to benefit from the opportunity that Huo Yuhao had obtained.

"Oh? Tell me about it?" Kong Deming also became interested and asked curiously.

At Kong Deming's level, he has long kept his distance from things like luck guidance.

Luck is an extremely mysterious thing that is impossible to fathom. It's said to not exist, yet it often entangles numerous inexplicable phenomena like an inexplicable web. It's said to exist, but there's no real evidence...

Huo Yuhao pretended to be in deep thought before saying, "I sense a mysterious aura guiding me from the far north. If I miss this opportunity, I'm afraid I'll never encounter it again."

"The far north? The far north again?" Meng Hongchen asked curiously.

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't necessarily have to be the Far North, but it's somewhere in the northern region. We'll know the exact location once we get there."

Chapter 125 United Soul Master Academy

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't necessarily have to be the Far North, but it's somewhere in the northern region. We'll know the exact location once we get there."

Kong Deming thought for a moment and said decisively: "There is nothing important to do when returning to Sun and Moon. Let's set off now without delay."

So, under the leadership of Kong Deming and the guidance of the destiny compiled by Huo Yuhao, several people set out from Xingluo City and traveled all the way to the northern territories of Tianhun Empire and Douling Empire.

Just two days later, Ma Rulong, Lin Xi and others unleashed terrifying fighting power in the semi-finals, crushing the other team and successfully winning the championship, breaking the thousand-year curse that the Sun-Moon Empire could only take runner-up!

With Yu Yu's deliberate promotion, the Sun-Moon Empire Royal Soul Instructor Academy became famous. Huo Yuhao and the Hongchen siblings who performed brilliantly in this competition also became famous and became famous throughout the continent!

As the Sun-Moon Royal Team won the championship, those ambitious people who were frustrated in Douluo Three Kingdoms also began to go to the Sun-Moon Empire, intending to realize their great ambitions in the Sun-Moon Empire.

Amid the cheers and applause of countless spectators, the Sun-Moon Royal Team received the generous prizes prepared by the Star Luo Empire for the championship team of this competition. After successfully completing their championship journey, the Sun-Moon Royal Team slowly left Star Luo City and returned to the Sun-Moon Empire under the protection of several ninth-level soul mentors.

After the two Haotian Sect Extreme Douluos and Shrek Xuanzi who were lurking in the dark failed to find Huo Yuhao and Hong Chen brothers and sisters in the Sun Moon Royal Team's main force, they had no choice but to give up their plan to intercept the Sun Moon Royal Team in anger and helplessness.

Because their goal was always to shoot through Huo Yuhao in Tangshan, there was no need to intercept and kill the other members of the Sun-Moon Royal Team.

Because that would be more trouble than gain.

After all, Niu Tian and Titan were only carrying out the mission of eliminating the hidden danger of Huo Yuhao.

As for Xuan Zi, he was just trying to atone for his sins by reducing the academy's responsibility for failing to protect Tangshan. He had no idea of ​​the Haotian Sect's true intention of killing Huo Yuhao.

Niu Tian and Tai Tan, who were unable to accomplish their mission of killing Huo Yuhao, searched for several days around Xingluo City and other areas, but still found no clues. Huo Yuhao seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, disappearing right under the noses of these two Extreme Douluo!

After searching in vain, Niu Tian and Tai Tan could only be furious. Extremely depressed, they grabbed Xuan Zi and started beating him up until his face was bruised, his mouth was bleeding, and his teeth were flying. Only then did they stop and leave.

Xuan Zi, who was beaten badly by two Extreme Douluos, knelt on the grass. Heavy rain was pouring down. With his mind broken, he could only roar to the sky and spit out blood foam.

Xuan Zi, feeling extremely uncomfortable, wandered in the wilderness like a zombie for several days, and only returned to Shrek Academy after his injuries recovered.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the academy, he learned that Ling Luochen, Jiang Nannan, Wang Donger and other soul master geniuses had dropped out of school and left Shrek City, disappearing in the vast sea of ​​people!

The rising stars of the academy dropped out one after another. Xuan Zi, who had caused a series of disasters, was summoned by Moon again. After being scolded by Moon, he left the Poseidon Pavilion in a huff and continued to drink and eat chicken legs in Shrek Academy.

Wang Yan, a master of martial soul theory at Shrek Academy who was only at the Soul King level, was completely abandoned by Shrek Academy because he took the main responsibility for failing to protect the students and defend Shrek's eternal glory throughout the entire competition.

However, a few days later.

Shrek Academy received news that the Xingluo Empire invited the Tianhun Empire and the Douling Empire to jointly build a joint soul master academy. The address of the joint soul master academy is in Maple Leaf City, which is across the sea from the Sun and Moon Empire and close to the Mingdou Mountains.

In the invitation letter jointly issued by the three countries, the abandoned Wang Yan and Wang Dong'er who dropped out of Shrek Academy, on behalf of the United Soul Master Academy, invited all Shrek teachers to visit Maple Leaf City for guidance, to help the United Soul Master Academy develop as quickly as possible, and strive to make the United Soul Master Academy a super academy that is famous throughout the continent and integrates soul masters and soul instructors!

When Shrek's senior executives, including Xuan Zi and Moon, received the invitation letter, they felt a burning pain on their faces. As a super academy that has been famous in the continent for thousands of years, they were severely slapped in the face by Douluo Three Kingdoms!

Moreover, many freshmen and inner court disciples from the Three Douluo Kingdoms, under the persuasion of their families, have recently dropped out of Shrek Academy in order to respond to the call of their country and to better resist the Sun-Moon Empire in the future and realize their ideal of becoming powerful soul masters to defend their country. They plan to directly enroll in the United Soul Master Academy after it is officially established.

With the joint efforts of the three countries, in just a few days, the buildings of the United Soul Master Academy in Maple Leaf City were built at a speed visible to the naked eye. Many forces rooted in the Douluo Three Kingdoms also responded and jointly promoted the establishment of the United Soul Master Academy.

Knowing that they could not stop the determination of the three Douluo Kingdoms to establish a joint soul master academy, the top management of Shrek Academy could only hold an emergency meeting to formulate a countermeasure.

Inside the Poseidon Pavilion.

Different from previous meetings that were always full of disagreements and disputes, this time the positions of the Shrek elders were surprisingly consistent, and they all criticized the establishment of a joint soul master academy by the three Douluo Kingdoms.

"Those Titled Douluo masters who once walked out of Shrek are, after all, people from the Three Kingdoms. In the future, with the United Soul Master Academy representing the Three Douluo Kingdoms, it will be difficult for them to obey the orders of our Shrek Academy. The prestige of the academy on the continent will gradually be replaced by the United Soul Master Academy that is about to be established!" An elder said in an indignant tone.

There was also an old man with an angry look in his eyes who said, "Not only that, if they establish a United Soul Master Academy, then the vast majority of the Soul Master talents from the three Douluo Kingdoms will go directly to the United Soul Master Academy. The quality of our Shrek Academy's students will be greatly reduced, and our chances of cultivating Soul Master talents will become increasingly smaller in the future!"

"In short, the Douluo Three Kingdoms want to establish an academy under their direct jurisdiction to completely break the influence of our Shrek Academy in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, and to unite with the Soul Master Academy to abolish the lofty status of our Shrek Academy in the Douluo Three Kingdoms for ten thousand years!" The old man who could not accept the decline of Shrek Academy could no longer bear it and made the decision directly, almost growling.

Amidst the criticisms of the elders, Xuanzi gnawed a few bites of chicken legs, wiped his greasy hands on his greasy and smelly clothes, drank a few sips of wine, and then expressed his personal opinion.

"It is said that the idea of ​​establishing a joint academy was proposed by Xu Jiujiu, the youngest sister of the current Xingluo Emperor Xu Jiawei. The fact that the three Douluo Kingdoms were able to reach an agreement so quickly shows that the royal families of the three kingdoms had long wanted to break away from the influence of our Shrek. And Princess Xu Jiujiu just happened to take advantage of our Shrek's failure to win the championship and the unrest among the three nations as an excuse to establish this joint spirit master academy near the Sun Moon Empire."

Xuan Zi took a bite of a chicken leg and continued, "In other words, even if our Shrek team wins the championship, the Douluo Three Kingdoms are very likely to establish a joint soul master academy. They just lack an excuse. After all, the battle a thousand years ago between the Sun and Moon Empire really woke up the Douluo Three Kingdoms..."

The elders looked at Xuanzi in surprise. They didn't expect that this confused old man would have such a profound understanding of this matter.

Could it be that he deliberately caused the heavy losses of Zhang Lexuan in the past and the starting players not long ago?

It was said that Xuan Zi had even gained the recognition of a powerful figure from the Holy Spirit Cult who had been lurking there for a long time, and had been awarded a plaque inscribed with the title "Holy Spirit Cult Grand Elder"...

Chapter 126 Shrek's Decision

It was said that Xuan Zi had even gained the recognition of a powerful figure from the Holy Spirit Cult who had been lurking there for a long time, and had been awarded a plaque inscribed with the title "Holy Spirit Cult Grand Elder"...

Several elders who disliked Xuanzi thought so.

"The Douluo Three Kingdoms can no longer stop us. When the time comes, just send a few people to visit. Shrek will still need the Douluo Three Kingdoms in the future, so don't make the relationship too awkward."

Moon, sitting in a wheelchair, knocked on the table expressionlessly and continued, "The most urgent task is to resolve the current crisis and prevent the academy from declining too quickly, or to find another way to restore Shrek's glory."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the Sea God Pavilion instantly became solemn. The elders all frowned and began to think about the future development of Shrek.

After a moment, an elder suggested, "We at Shrek Academy have a history of thousands of years in training spirit masters. If we remove those complicated requirements like letters of recommendation and truly prioritize talent, we might be able to make up for the shortage of students in the future."

"We at Shrek have a history of thousands of years, but Wang Yan, who was just kicked out by us, is a master in spirit research. He knows everything about our spirit research at Shrek. This advantage will gradually disappear as Wang Yan gains a foothold in the United Spirit Master Academy."

An elder paused and continued, "However, abolishing the city lord-level recommendation system is entirely feasible. We can even provide subsidies to students from ordinary families and recruit them into Shrek Academy."

Although many elders were reluctant to lower Shrek's status to expand the student population, they had no choice now.

A highly respected elder suggested, "We could even follow the example of the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Hall and allow civilians to awaken their spirits for free. Then, we could recruit those talented civilian spirit masters to Shrek. We could provide financial support to those who lack resources."

"At the same time, we must try our best to recruit disciples from aristocratic families to ensure the quality of Shrek's students."

Many elders expressed their objection to this proposal, arguing that Shrek was not yet so poor that it had to allow civilian soul masters to awaken their spirits for free in order to expand its student population. Moreover, if they allowed civilian soul masters to awaken their spirits for free and then spent resources to train them, they would still go to Douluo Kingdoms after leaving Shrek Academy and would not be used by Shrek, which would make Shrek lose more than it gained.

The elders were discussing the matter, all trying to think about Shrek's future path.

An old man who had been silent all this time knocked on the table and expressed his thoughts: "Since the Douluo Three Kingdoms want to establish a united spirit master academy to replace our Shrek's lofty position in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, let them try."

All the elders looked at that elder and couldn't help but frown.

The old man smiled mysteriously and continued:

"As long as we Shrek advances cautiously, relying on our thousand-year heritage and our excellent faculty, we can definitely try to suppress the United Soul Master Academy and let the people of the Three Douluo Kingdoms and even the world realize that we Shrek are irreplaceable!"

"Of course, I also have another idea, which is to gradually transform Shrek into a sect!"

"Transform into a sect?!" The elders looked at the elder in shock, thinking that this idea was really advanced.

The elder glanced at the calm Moon and nodded, "Yes, first of all, the academy's student pool will definitely be affected. However, if the high-quality students we painstakingly trained all serve Douluo Three Kingdoms after graduation, what can we at Shrek gain?"

"Do you have the ability to rally the Titled Douluo of the Three Douluo Kingdoms with a single call? The Three Douluo Kingdoms now have a more cohesive United Spirit Master Academy and don't need us, Shrek, at all."

"Since we can't get the best students from Douluo Three Kingdoms like before, and the students we train can't be used by us, why should we go to the trouble of training them?"

"In my opinion, since the Douluo Three Kingdoms have abandoned us, then we should abandon the Douluo Three Kingdoms too. Shrek Academy will still be Shrek Academy, but we must establish a new sect in Shrek City and absorb those talented students into the sect!"

"In this way, we can completely awaken martial spirits for free in the civilian academy, so as to discover talented spirit masters and then absorb them into the sect. As long as we proceed steadily, we, Shrek, will eventually create a sect that will dominate the continent!"

The resounding words struck the minds of the other elders like a drum hammer, and even Xuan Zi and Moon fell into deep thought.

After a long while, Moon En asked in a deep voice, "What do you elders think?"

"It is entirely feasible to establish a new sect. After all, the environment has changed now. The attitude of the Three Douluo Kingdoms towards us has undergone a huge change. We can try to establish a new sect in Shrek City to see how the Three Douluo Kingdoms react and explore the sect's operating model." A highly respected elder said so.

“If Shrek exists solely as an academy in the future, just to cultivate talented students, then as the quality of students cannot be guaranteed, we will not be able to recruit and cultivate talented soul masters. Perhaps in the end we will follow in the footsteps of Dean Frank and others who closed Shrek Academy. In order to continue the Shrek heritage, we should establish another sect in Shrek City and absorb talented soul masters from Shrek Academy. Only in this way can we expand and consolidate the influence of our Shrek in Douluo Three Kingdoms and even the entire continent!” Another elder said very solemnly.

Among the many elders, most supported the establishment of another sect in Shrek City, trying to absorb the students who had graduated or even those who had not graduated in recent years into the sect, forming a sect team, and increasing and deepening the influence of Shrek Academy on the mainland.

Some elders also thought that establishing a new sect was inappropriate. Firstly, it would intensify the conflict with the Three Douluo Kingdoms, and secondly, it would go against the original intention of Flanders and others to establish Shrek Academy.

Faced with the life and death of Shrek Academy, Moon pondered for a long time and adopted the proposal of the majority of elders. He decided to establish another sect in Shrek City, absorbing students including but not limited to graduates from Shrek Academy. He would temporarily serve as the sect leader, and the elders would form the Elders' Council. However, the separate sect was expressly prohibited from meddling in the normal operation of the academy!

Therefore, under the encouragement of the elders, the Shrek leaders began to secretly plan to establish a sect, intending to announce it to the world after everything was ready.

For a time, undercurrents surged in the Three Douluo Kingdoms, and the United Soul Master Academy jointly built by Xingluo, Tianhun and Douling was being built in full swing.

The sects rooted in the three countries responded one after another and applied to the admissions department of the United Academy to send their most talented students to the United Soul Master Academy for further study.

Feeling backstabbed, the Shrek executives did not oppose the establishment of a joint soul master academy by the three Douluo Kingdoms, but instead conspired to establish a sect to increase and consolidate the influence of Shrek Academy on the mainland.

More than half a month later.

Tiandou City.

"I never thought that Princess Xu Jiujiu would be so bold as to unite with the Celestial Soul and Douluo Soul countries to establish a joint soul master academy in Maple Leaf City. This will replace the influence of Shrek Academy in the Douluo Three Kingdoms and resist our Sun Moon Empire..."

Meng Hongchen was half lying on the recliner, holding up the newspaper and couldn't help but exclaim.

"From the map, Maple Leaf City is across the sea from our Sun-Moon Empire and close to the Mingdou Mountains. The location of this Soul Master Academy is very well chosen." Xiao Hongchen took a sip of ice drink and commented.

Chapter 127 Sunset Forest

"Douluo Three Kingdoms' move is very wise. It will not only strengthen the cohesion of the three kingdoms, but also gradually get rid of the influence of Shrek Academy for ten thousand years and take the initiative into their own hands. Xu Jiujiu is indeed not simple." Huo Yuhao glanced at the contents of the newspaper and said in a deep voice.
