Douluo: Dark-eyed White Tiger Huo Yuhao

The last one may sound ordinary, but in fact, the hereditary title of marquis is already the highest reward that the Xingluo Empire can give in terms of status under normal circumstances.

Marquis is the second most powerful title among all titles, second only to duke. The Xingluo Empire has not conferred a hereditary marquis for hundreds of years. After all, a noble with the status of marquis can at least obtain a large city as a territory. Taking into account the hereditary nature, this is completely a local lord.

The reason why the Dai family was able to become dukes was closely related to their previous royal status.

A hereditary marquisate that can be appointed at will by Huo Yuhao is already a historic achievement in the Star Luo Empire.

Even Huo Yuhao couldn't hold back his expression anymore. He asked:

"Your Majesty, is it really okay to give so much?"

It’s not that he doesn’t want it, it’s just that he’s been given too much!

Xu Jiawei smiled bitterly and sighed.

"Well, to be honest, when I announced this decision, many ministers in the court opposed it."

"That……"

“But it’s necessary.”

Xu Jiawei interrupted Huo Yuhao and said in a deep voice:

"Yuhao, I've heard how incredibly talented you are in the field of soul guides. Therefore, I believe you also know what those soul guide drawings you brought back mean to us. It's no exaggeration to say that they can even accelerate the development of our country's soul guides by a thousand years."

Huo Yuhao nodded silently.

Of course he knew that Xu Jiawei was not exaggerating.

As far as Huo Yuhao knew, even Dai Hao was only wearing level seven soul guide armor, which showed how backward the soul guides of the Star Luo Empire had become.

Dai Hao is the highest-ranking general of the Xingluo Empire and a duke of a country. Now he is a powerful Titled Douluo. However, the soul guide armor he wears may not be as good as that worn by a junior like Meng Hongchen. After all, the quality of the seventh-level soul guide armor made by the Xingluo Empire and the sixth-level soul guide armor made by Mingde Hall will not differ much, and Meng Hongchen's armor is most likely made by her grandfather Jing Hongchen.

The gap between the Xingluo Empire and the Sun-Moon Empire in terms of soul guides is far more than a thousand years.

Xu Jiawei came up to Huo Yuhao and patted him on the shoulder.

"So, you deserve all of this. No matter how valuable these things are, they can't compare to the development you've brought. What's more..."

Having said that, he smiled and winked at Huo Yuhao.

"I'm counting on you to bring me more surprises of the same level."

He knew very well that he couldn't fool someone like Huo Yuhao.

On the contrary, playing the emotional card and using absolute interests to tie Huo Yuhao down is the most appropriate choice.

Huo Yuhao brought back thousands of soul guide device blueprints, and none of these soul guide device blueprints were available in the Star Luo Empire.

What does it mean to have thousands of soul guide blueprints? Xu Jiawei didn't dare to say the specific value, but he was sure that even if the Xingluo Empire paid ten hundred thousand year soul beast embryos, it would not be able to exchange them for the Sun Moon Empire.

Not to mention that Huo Yuhao also brought Xuan Ziwen, a chief researcher of Mingde Hall. As long as he successfully breaks through to the Titled Douluo, he will even become the first ninth-level soul engineer in the Three Kingdoms of Douluo.

This is a breakthrough from nothing to something, from zero to one, and its significance to the Star Luo Empire is self-evident.

Xu Jiawei didn't want to disappoint Huo Yuhao, so he went against the crowd's opinion and gave Huo Yuhao a generous reward that was unprecedented in the history of the Star Luo Empire.

Huo Yuhao was silent for a moment and bowed to Xu Jiawei.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After saying this, he raised his head and said seriously:

"Your Majesty, I do have good news to tell you that is no less than these soul guide blueprints."

"what?"

This time it was Xu Jiawei's turn to be stunned.

It was true that he wanted Huo Yuhao to continue giving him similar surprises, but wasn't this a bit too fast?

Even Huo Yuhao could say that something was worth no less than these more than a thousand soul guide blueprints. How precious was it?

Huo Yuhao said in a deep voice:

"You should have heard about the matter of the Benti Sect and the Snow Emperor embryo, right?"

"Well, I've heard from the Hall Master. I never thought that the beast I sold back then was actually the Snow Emperor, ranked third among the Ten Fierce Beasts."

Xu Jiawei nodded slightly and sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Huo Yuhao continued:

"In fact, the Snow Emperor embryo was not the only thing I obtained in Mingde Hall."

As he spoke, he took out the Starlight Sapphire Necklace and handed it to Xu Jiawei.

"It may be difficult to explain it verbally, so please read it for yourself, Your Majesty."

"?"

Xu Jiawei took the necklace and looked inside curiously.

When he saw what was inside, his pupils suddenly shrank.

"Humanoid Soul Guidance Device?!"

Inside was the experimental subject No. 1 that Huo Yuhao had brought from Mingde Hall.

Huo Yuhao shook his head.

"To be more precise, it's a semi-finished humanoid soul guide. However, I can assure you, Your Majesty, that it is the crystallization of the Sun-Moon Empire's most advanced soul guide technology."

Xu Jiawei's breathing gradually became heavier.

As an auxiliary soul master, he actually has some understanding of soul guides, but it is very general and can only be regarded as a sixth-level soul guide.

But this was enough for him to understand what a humanoid soul guide meant.

He tried to calm his breath, put down the Starlight Sapphire Necklace, and asked:

"Any more?"

This humanoid soul guide device is indeed important, but it is only a semi-finished product after all. In terms of total value, the more than one thousand soul guide device blueprints are still higher.

He believed that Huo Yuhao must have more to come.

As expected, Huo Yuhao nodded gently and said:

"Because time was of the essence, I only took this semi-finished humanoid soul guide and the Snow Queen embryo and left in a hurry. But before leaving the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy, I took the time to take a look and found that there was a warehouse there."

Then, he told Xu Jiawei about the scenery he saw in the warehouse of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

While listening, Xu Jiawei's expression kept changing, and finally he let out a long sigh.

"Yuhao, if you can really bring all those soul guides back to the empire, you will definitely be a hero of the empire."

"Well, so Your Majesty, I hope you can send more people to support me in this competition."

Although Huo Yuhao has Xue Di as his bodyguard, the location of this operation is in Mingdu, the capital of the Sun Moon Empire.

If his guess was correct, Death Douluo Ye Xishui, Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao, and the five national protectors should all be on standby in Mingdu.

In this situation, even if Xue Di took action, it would be difficult to help him escape.

"I see."

Xu Jiawei turned around and looked at the scenery outside the window.

"Yuhao, go to the national treasury first to collect what you want. I will redeem the 300 million gold soul coins in two days. I need to discuss what you said with the Protector of the Nation Douluo and the priests first."

"Yes."

Huo Yuhao bowed to Xu Jiawei again and left Xu Jiawei's office.

He arrived at the Xingluo Empire's treasury with ease, and his old acquaintance Huang Jinxu was already waiting there.

Seeing Huo Yuhao arrive, he said respectfully:

"My Lord Marquis, I have heard everything. Please come in."

Since Huo Yuhao was studying at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, he didn’t know that he had become truly famous in the Star Luo Empire in the past two years.

Now all the high-ranking officials in the Xingluo Empire know that there is such an exaggerated genius in history as him. His reputation in the Xingluo Empire is even on the same level as that of his father Dai Hao.

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly and entered the Xingluo Treasury.

As soon as he entered the door, he felt dazzled.

Xu Jiawei had indeed not lied to him. The quality of the national treasures in the Xingluo Treasury was unimaginably good. At least the treasure appreciation meeting attended by Shrek's core disciples was completely incomparable to it.

Soul bones of the Golden Ray's level can only be considered average here. The value of truly precious things is probably above 50 million gold soul coins.

Huo Yuhao moved very carefully between the national treasures. There were basically detailed introductions under the stands where they were placed, explaining their origins and functions.

He was actually not in a hurry. He didn't necessarily have to redeem all twelve items immediately. Given Xu Jiawei's character, he would definitely not default on his debt. He could come back to collect them when he needed them in the future.

Soon, he stopped in front of a booth, his eyes wide open.

Inside the booth was a wing.

That’s right, it’s a wing, a golden wing.

The following introduction tells the origin and function of this wing.

"It's suspected to be an external soul bone from the legendary super soul beast Tianyi Jiaozi. It's estimated to be around 30,000 years old. Its attributes are divine, and it's estimated to be able to bring divine soul skills to the fusion."

"However, please note that the Tianyi Yazi is a subspecies of the Dragon Nine Sons Yazi. To absorb its bloodline, one must possess a bloodline at least as strong as the Dragon Nine Sons. Otherwise, one will be easily attacked, resulting in disability at best and death at worst."

"The estimated price is 70 million Gold Soul Coins."

"..."

As Huo Yuhao read these lines of introduction, his heartbeat gradually quickened.

This soul bone is obviously younger than the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, but its price has more than tripled. The reason is obviously in these three words.

Sacred attributes, nine sons of the dragon, with external soul bones.

The sacred attribute is an ultimate attribute in another sense. It not only has a strong restraining effect on all evil soul masters, but can also cause great suppression to other ordinary soul masters. It is definitely one of the most noble attributes in the world.

The fact that Ye Guyi's Holy Angel Martial Soul is of higher quality than his Ice Scorpion shows how terrifying the Holy Attribute is. If his Ghost-Eyed White Tiger had not evolved into a Three-Eyed White Tiger, its quality would still be far inferior to that of the Holy Angel Martial Soul.

The nine sons of the dragon are equally terrifying.

To illustrate how terrible it is, let me give you two examples.

Three-eyed golden lion and gluttonous bull.
