Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 222 The Unfathomable Huo Yuhao
Di Qianqiu suddenly chuckled, unusually teasing, "Our safety? More like our enemy's safety, isn't it?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled and retorted, "Qiu'er, you're going a bit too far. How could a pure and kind young man like me do such a cruel thing?"

The others recalled their previous opponents who had suffered concussions, were unconscious, or had their teeth chattering, and all gave them a look that said, "You're kidding me."

"Please invite the captains of the four teams to come up on stage to draw lots." Huang Jinxu's slightly deep voice suddenly came from the arena.

Shrek Academy's representative is Huo Yuhao, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's is Ma Rulong, and Di'ao Academy's is a young man of medium build with broad shoulders and a sturdy build. He appears very composed and has a rock-solid feel to him. However, the representative from Star Luo Royal Academy is a young girl, a rare female captain.

Huo Yuhao looked at Xu Jiujiu, who had changed into a light yellow outfit, and nodded with a smile: "Princess Jiujiu, it's been a long time."

Today, the princess is quite different from the elegant and noble woman she was at the auction. Dressed in a fitted outfit, her demeanor has changed, and she exudes a spirited and heroic aura. Her long golden hair is neatly tied into a ponytail, and a faint smile graces her pretty face. The well-tailored yellow outfit perfectly accentuates her slender figure.

Ma Rulong glanced at the princess, a hint of surprise in his eyes, before immediately turning his gaze elsewhere. Meanwhile, the captain of the Imperial Academy stared intently at Princess Jiu Jiu for a few moments before looking away.

Xu Jiujiu's gaze remained fixed on Huo Yuhao. Seeing the unsurprised look in his eyes, Xu Jiujiu finally realized that this guy had actually known about her identity as a participant from Xingluo Academy all along!

Looking at Princess Xingluo on the stage, Wang Yan in the rest area glanced at Huo Yuhao in surprise. He had actually guessed right. No wonder the Sea God Pavilion Master had taken a liking to her. She was truly extraordinary!

Wang Dong'er's gaze also fell on Princess Jiujiu, and she suddenly said, "Teacher Wang, since this Princess Jiujiu is from the Star Luo royal family, then her martial soul should be the Star Crown that Yuhao mentioned?"

Wang Yan nodded slowly and said, "It should be right, and it's a Star Crown of the Soul King level."

Wu Feng frowned: "Is this Star Crown Martial Soul really that strong?"

Ma Xiaotao's expression was somewhat serious as she nodded and said, "Ten thousand years ago, the organization that controlled Soul Masters on Douluo Continent was called the Spirit Hall. At that time, even the two great empires of the time, Heaven Dou and Star Luo, had to rely on it. The Spirit Hall once had six particularly powerful Martial Souls, which represented some of the strongest forces at the time, one of which was Star Crown."

"At that time, the Heavenly Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire each held three seats, and the Star Luo Empire's royal family was still the lineage of the White Tiger Duke. However, the White Tiger Martial Soul was not among the six great Martial Souls. On the contrary, the Star Crown was the top of the three great Martial Souls of the Star Luo Empire. Would you say it's strong or not?"

Wang Yan also said in a low voice, "This martial spirit is extremely rare on the continent, but it has always existed. However, because it has appeared so infrequently over thousands of years, it has been forgotten by many people. Although our academy has some records, there is still very little relevant information. If we really draw the Star Luo Royal Academy, we will mainly have to rely on your adaptability."

Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Chen Zifeng, the three main players, nodded solemnly.

Meanwhile, on the competition stage, the four team captains began drawing lots.

Under the watchful eyes of the four Title Douluos, the four captains approached Emperor Xingluo. Emperor Xingluo smiled slightly and said, "It's a pleasure to see you young talents. The competition is about to begin. I hope you will uphold the principle of 'friendship first, competition second' and complete this tournament successfully. I will throw four balls with their draw numbers written on them shortly. Go grab them all at the same time. Are you ready?"

The four of them nodded at the same time.

"Attention." Emperor Xingluo narrowed his eyes slightly. Then, no one saw clearly how he took action. Four golden lights rose into the sky at the same time.

The captain of Di'ao Academy and Ma Rulong of Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy were already poised to attack. As soon as the Star Luo Emperor made his move, they leaped high into the air and each grabbed a small ball in their hands.

Huo Yuhao remained calm, raising his hand in a grasping motion. He circulated his soul power and, to the astonishment of the other three, used the Crane Control and Dragon Capture technique to draw one of the remaining two small balls into his palm. The last one was caught by Xu Jiujiu after it fell.

A faint smile appeared on the pretty face of the princess. She glanced at the ball in her hand. Although she was the last to succeed, she was the first to report the result.

"I'm number one."

Ma Rulong glanced at Huo Yuhao and said in a deep voice, "Number Two."

Huo Yuhao spread his palms and calmly said, "Number One."

After a long while, his gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at Huo Yuhao, then suddenly chuckled, "It's a pity that your trump card, which you've been hiding for so long, has been wasted."

Trump card?

Ma Rulong and the young man from Di'ao Academy's expressions changed immediately, and they looked at Xu Jiujiu and Huo Yuhao in surprise.

If this competition were to have an award for the most mysterious contestant, it would undoubtedly go to Huo Yuhao. It wouldn't be surprising if he were hiding some trump card or secret weapon.

But the question is, how did Princess Jiujiu know this?
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and said meaningfully, "Of course we have trump cards, and I believe you are no exception. As the host country and a royal family, I have no doubt about your academy's financial strength."

Xu Jiujiu's heart skipped a beat. Financial resources? Hearing this seemingly suggestive word, a bad premonition immediately rose in her heart.

"Is that so? Then let's see who has the better trump card on the field."

Huo Yuhao's lips curled slightly as he calmly turned around: "I'm just afraid you won't be able to force me to reveal my trump card."

Seeing Huo Yuhao's confidence, Xu Jiujiu suddenly recalled what happened at the auction, and his expression became more serious.

Although this guy already knows that he is the ultimate ice master, what exactly is his martial soul?

At this point, although the Imperial Academy has not yet announced its rankings, the draw results are already in. Shrek Academy, also ranked number one, will face Star Luo National Academy today, while Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy will naturally face Imperial Academy.

After personally checking the lottery numbers, the Star Luo Emperor announced the results to the people. When the people of the Star Luo Empire heard that their nation's team would face Shrek Academy, gasps of surprise rang out from the crowd.

In the rest area, Beibei murmured, "It really is Xingluo. One-third chance. Yuhao's sixth sense is too accurate."

The semifinals follow the same rules as the previous knockout stage, taking place over two days, with team battles and individual elimination matches. The difference is that both matches must be won to advance. If each side wins one match, a tiebreaker match will be played using a two-two-three format.

This type of competition requires more complex considerations, and tactical arrangements may play a very important role.

Without the spirit fusion technique from the original novel, how do you think Xingluo will fight?
