Chapter 184: The Stripped Martial Spirit (Posted at 3pm)

“Ah.”

Tiansha Douluo seemed to be stuck, his mouth opened and closed as if he wanted to say something, but his gaze towards Huo Yuhao unconsciously drifted towards him.

For some reason, just by looking at the soul guide armor that seemed empty because of the lack of the wearer, he felt Xiao Lixuan’s shrill wailing echoing in his ears again, and his limbs couldn’t help but feel a little cold.

As a being with combat power comparable to that of a level 95 Super Douluo, he could kill ten people like Xiao Lixuan with one punch without even opening his martial spirit, but he couldn’t completely wipe it out like Huo Yuhao without leaving any trace.

There was no blood, no broken pieces, and the armor was brand new as if it had never experienced a battle. Obviously, before the two disappeared, Xiao Lixuan had an absolute upper hand.

But as Huo Yuhao released the illusion soul skill again, everything became different. Apart from Xiao Lixuan’s sudden wailing, he didn’t even know what happened.

How did this kid do it?

Obviously, judging from his aura, he is not stronger than before, right?

He forced himself to gather his thoughts, looked around, and spoke loudly.

"The first single-player match, the winner is Shrek Academy."

Before he finished speaking, a majestic voice suddenly sounded from above the ring.

"In the next single-player match, all Sun and Moon Academy will give up!"

"Who is it!?"

As the only Super Douluo with a cultivation level of 95 in the whole venue, Xian Lin'er stood up as soon as she heard the voice. She did not see what she did, and appeared on the ring in the blink of an eye. She pulled Huo Yuhao behind her and looked up at the sky with a serious expression.

And the several Protector of the Nation Douluo belonging to Xingluo on the high platform also responded quickly, quickly surrounded Xu Jiawei in the middle, and also looked at the man who suddenly appeared in the air with a vigilant face.

The man looked about 40 years old. His short and fat figure made him look a little funny, but the aura he exuded made every Title Douluo present dare not look down on him.

"Grandpa!"

"Master!"

After seeing the person clearly, everyone in the rest area of ​​Sun Moon Academy, including the two leading teachers, brightened their eyes.

The middle-aged man first smiled at the Hongchen brothers and sisters below as if to comfort them, then glanced at the Title Douluo present with a calm expression, and finally looked at Xu Jiawei sitting upright in the chair and bowed slightly.

"I am Jing Hongchen, the master of Mingde Hall. I meet your majesty. I came here uninvited today because I am worried about my useless grandchildren. When people get old, they always care about the younger generation. I hope your majesty will forgive me."

"No problem."

Xu Jiawei narrowed his eyes slightly and waved his hand as if he didn't care.

"The Soul Master Competition is an open event. We, Xingluo, will not refuse anyone who wants to watch."

At this point, he changed the subject, and even his eyes became extremely sharp in an instant.

"Although we organizers will try our best to ensure the safety of the contestants, the competition has always been about going all out, and we can only do our best to maintain it."

"Since the hall master has been watching the game, he should have some understanding of what happened just now. The captain of the Sun and Moon team relied on his stronger strength and tried to kill the captain of Shrek, which led to the current result. If the hall master wanted to do something because of the fault of his own team members, we, the Xingluo Empire, would not just watch it."

Jing Hongchen couldn't help but jump when he heard this.

Bullshit, relying on your stronger strength, how can you say this?

Has Huo Yuhao ever been afraid of what Xiao Lixuan showed from beginning to end?

Of course, even if he was complaining in his heart, he understood what Xu Jiawei's choice to express his position at this time meant.

He didn't have any special reaction to this. It would be better to say that Huo Yuhao's killing of Xiao Lixuan helped him solve a problem that had been nagging him for a long time.

He didn't know whether Xiao Lixuan was a spy sent by the main sect, but judging from his performance today, this guy hid so deeply that he probably had no sense of belonging to Mingde Hall at all.

Anyway, he didn't invest much in Xiao Lixuan, so he died, and didn't this guy leave the most valuable things before he died?

"I have nothing to say that he is not as skilled as others, but the soul guide armor on Xiao Lixuan is our Mingde Hall's. As the hall master, I naturally can't let it wander outside..."

As he spoke, Jing Hongchen's eyes moved down and fell on Xiao Lixuan's soul guide armor.

As a ninth-level soul guide, he naturally saw that this set of soul guide armor was a little abnormal. As a soul guide that can be used by soul saints or even soul emperors, the increase it brings to Xiao Lixuan is really too powerful.

Is this what Xiao Lixuan has been hiding from him?

It's a pity that this kid hid too deep. It would be better if he was found earlier...

Jing Hongchen flashed and came directly to the ring. He nodded slightly to Xian Lin'er.

"I have heard that Shrek Academy is full of strong people. You should be the famous Martial God Douluo. It's a pleasure to meet you. Although I am from the Sun Moon Empire, I have always been very yearning for the first academy on the continent. I will definitely visit it if I have the chance."

"Xiao Lixuan's death in the battle was caused by our Sun Moon Team. I have no intention of pursuing it, but as the captain of my Sun Moon Team, we need to take back his relics. This should be no problem, right?"

Xian Lin'er's expression did not change at all. She just subconsciously turned her head to look at Huo Yuhao behind her and asked for his opinion. Her body remained tense throughout the process.

She couldn't help but be careless. It was clear that this guy's cultivation level was not as high as hers, but the aura he gave off made her subconsciously palpitate. One can imagine how many high-level soul tools Jing Hongchen was equipped with.

Seeing this scene, Jing Hongchen's eyes flickered slightly, and he felt surprised in his heart.

He could understand Xian Lin'er protecting the calf. After all, with Huo Yuhao's qualifications, if he were from Mingde Hall, he would not even let this kid show his face outside.

It is not an exaggeration to say that a genius like this is the pinnacle of genius, and there is no need to go through the Soul Master Competition to prove himself.

But as a dean, he actually has to listen to Huo Yuhao's opinion to make decisions on such matters. Isn't it a bit too important?

What is the origin of this boy?

Reminding that Xian Lin'er was the dean of Shrek's Soul Guidance Department, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if he had caught something.

Before he could think about it, Huo Yuhao, who was standing behind Xian Lin'er, chuckled and said.

"Lord Hongchen Hall Master, there is a large number of people. There is nothing wrong with this trivial matter. Please feel free to do it."

He had already taken away the most critical things, and naturally he didn't particularly care about other things.

If it weren't for the materials, this set of armor would be at the level of a seventh-level soul guide, and its technical content would even be inferior to the Sword of Judgment that Ma Rulong used in his previous life. It would have no value to him at all.

The most important thing is that even if Jing Hongchen takes the armor back, it can only be used as a collection, and the technology cannot be replicated at all.

However, to Huo Yuhao's surprise, Jing Hongchen did not put away his armor in a hurry, but looked directly at him, with a smile on his face that looked completely kind.

"If I'm not wrong, this little friend should also have some research on soul guidance devices. Isn't he interested in this set of soul guidance armor?"

Huo Yuhao was slightly startled and blinked.

"I wonder what Hongchen Hall Master means?"

"I just want to make a deal with my little friend. As long as you are willing, I can use half of the ownership of this armor in exchange for the humanoid soul guidance technology in your hands. I believe you have also noticed that this set of soul guidance armor The material technology is definitely worth the money, how about it?”

This old guy is so shameless...

Seeing Jing Hongchen's calm and composed appearance, Huo Yuhao secretly complained in his heart.

Judging from Xiao Lixuan's memory, Jing Hongchen knew nothing about this set of soul-guiding armor. This time he took the soul-guiding armor back to study the materials, so there was no difference between bringing back a set and half a set.

As a result, the old fox pretended to be inscrutable and wanted to use the half-set of soul-guiding armor to trick the white wolf into using his exoskeleton technology.

"No need, Master, I have no idea of ​​selling the humanoid soul guide technology for the time being."

Good guy, I just wanted to test it out, but I didn’t expect that the exoskeleton soul guide was really made by you?

It seems that he noticed that Huo Yuhao's attitude was somewhat firm. Although Jing Hongchen was a little disappointed, he wisely skipped the topic.

"It's okay, business cannot be done without mercy. If my friend ever has the idea of ​​selling, I will definitely give you a satisfactory price. If you can come to Mingde Hall as a guest when you have time, I will personally welcome you."

The conversation between the two was naturally heard clearly by everyone in the rest area. After a long period of silence, Meng Hongchen glanced sideways at Xiao Hongchen, who had a dull look on his face, and spoke lightly.

"Grandpa personally certified it. Does anyone have anything else to quibble with? If not, I'm willing to admit defeat."

Xiao Hongchen's face suddenly turned green and white, his good teeth gritted loudly, and he finally managed to squeeze out a few words through his teeth.

"You don't need to remind me!"

Mr. Ma on the side also raised his arms at this time and repeated Jing Hongchen's arrangement again.

"In the following single-player battle, Sun Moon Academy abstains."

The hall master has spoken. As a subordinate, he naturally obeys orders, and with Huo Yuhao's methods, even without Jing Hongchen, he would not dare to let anyone else come on stage.

Xiao Lixuan, who was hiding his strength, has fallen into trouble. Who knows if he will give you two more transformed people?

Immediately afterwards, under the resentful eyes of the audience, the captain of Tianhun Academy, who was still bandaged, also announced that he would admit defeat in the single battle, which directly brought today's game to an early end again.

Yesterday I bought two tickets and watched only one. Today, I only played one of the fourteen single-player battles. It is obviously the most valuable soul master competition, and there are even hundreds of thousands-year souls. Ring, but the battle turned out to be the least intense.

Fortunately, Xu Jiawei waved his hand and directly announced that he would refund those who bought tickets today, which calmed the invisible storm.

After all, their Xingluo team has already booked the runner-up this time, and the rewards prepared are equivalent to going into their own pockets, which can be regarded as making up for the loss of tickets.

All the way back to the hotel, Huo Yuhao casually confessed to everyone that he had exhausted a lot and needed to rest, and then he couldn't wait to walk into his room.

Although using Destined Death to erase Xiao Lixuan consumed a lot of his mental energy, it still couldn't hide the joy on his face.

When Huo Yuhao took out the two small beads and the black cube again, Gu Yuena and Qiu'er, who had received the hint before, had quietly come to his room.

"Is this what you gained this time?"

Seeing some ordinary things in Huo Yuhao's hands, Gu Yuena waved her hand to completely isolate the room from the outside world. Qiu'er on the side also asked curiously.

"What's the use of this thing?"

"This sounds a bit complicated... Let me explain it to you one by one."

Huo Yuhao placed the black square on the table and shook the two blue beads in his hand.

"If I guess correctly, this thing is Xiao Lixuan's martial spirit."

"……ah?"

Qiu'er was stunned for a moment, obviously in disbelief.

"Why is this guy's martial soul stripped out when he dies? Is it because of his destined death? Obviously Cheng Gang before..."

"It should be more than just the reason for Destiny's death."

Huo Yuhao shook his head: "The reason why their martial souls were stripped off should have something to do with their identities."

"Identity? Time traveler?"

"Well, human beings' martial arts spirits are often closely related to their own bloodline. They are part of the body, just like hair color. They are some manifestations of the body based on their own bloodline, but they vary from person to person... But They are different."

Gu Yuena and Qiu'er glanced at each other subconsciously, waiting quietly for Huo Yuhao's next words.

"Just like the Yu Ming I killed in the Duke's Mansion, his martial spirit that could evolve independently existed in his mind from the beginning. I don't know if his ancestors had any ice-attribute martial spirits. But even if the martial soul mutates, it shouldn't mutate to such an extent, so this martial soul most likely does not come from his bloodline, but comes to this world with his soul."

"This situation is similar to the ice attribute martial spirit that Brother Tianmeng provided for me. Strictly speaking, this martial spirit is not part of my own bloodline. It just so happens that the effect of destined death is to directly destroy everything including the soul. Erasing all of them, Juli Douluo’s Ant Emperor martial soul belongs to his own bloodline, but Xiao Lixuan and Yu Ming’s martial souls do not, so their martial souls were stripped out.”
