Chapter 144: Someone from the Noumenon Sect comes
Lan Xuanyu lay on the ground groaning, and it seemed as if snowflakes were falling all around him.
"No! Xiuxiu!!!"
An idea popped into everyone's head.
—He must really be sick.
Finally, even Wang Yan couldn't stand it anymore and knocked him unconscious again, carrying him away. It was just too humiliating.
VIP Room No. 2
Having obtained the Conferred God Platform, Xiao Hongchen calmed down and solemnly handed it to Elder Ma: "Elder Ma, this treasure is an absolute hot potato. Please return it to my grandfather immediately. Once it's in the Mingde Hall, let's see who dares to covet it."
Old Ma nodded and said, "That's right. We should keep a low profile as much as possible. I will return immediately through Mingde Hall's secret channels in Xingluo City."
"Okay! Then I'll leave it to you!"
Xiao Hongchen clenched his fists, his boundless fighting spirit burning brightly in his heterochromatic eyes.
I will prove to everyone in this world that I am the strongest genius!
The auction, rife with undercurrents and hidden agendas, finally came to an end, but the teams continued their competitions during the day.
On Shrek Academy's side, with the powerful support Gongyang Mo, the return of the Ice Control Soul King Ling Luochen, and the Evil Fire Phoenix Soul Emperor Ma Xiaotao, even without Huo Yuhao's intervention, the strength of these three main players is overwhelming against most teams.
After defeating the Royal Academy of Fighting Spirits, Shrek Academy successfully advanced to the quarterfinals.
Whether it was fate or not, their opponent in the quarterfinals this time was Zheng Tian Academy.
They couldn't beat Zhengtian Academy before, and now that Ma Xiaotao and the other two have returned in full force, they're even less likely to win.
There's not much to say about the easy wins; Shrek Academy has also advanced to the semifinals.
The situation at Xingluo National Academy was quite interesting. Dai Yueheng, the vice-captain, was involved in almost every battle. With his six-ring Soul Emperor cultivation, he was practically invincible. In addition, his iconic White Tiger Martial Soul earned him quite a few female fans among the audience.
As for Dai Huabin—with a cultivation level of only the third ring, he could only sit on the bench of the reserve team, biting a handkerchief and watching his good older brother dominate the battlefield.
"Bang!"
Dust billowed as Dai Yueheng ruthlessly defeated his opponent, retracting his sharp tiger claws. He roared to the sky, and his six optimally configured spirit rings shone with powerful light.
This imposing and domineering scene immediately elicited screams from many young girls.
"Lord Dai Yueheng, we respect and admire your teeth."
"Ah—Lord Dai Yueheng! I want to have your little monkeys!"
Dai Yueheng did not respond to the girls' enthusiasm. His domineering and imposing gaze swept over the teams from other academies, especially Shrek Academy, where he lingered on Huo Yuhao for a while.
The tiger is the king of beasts; who dares to provoke its wrath?
Even someone as proud as Xiao Hongchen felt a chill run down his spine under Dai Yueheng's gaze.
The White Tiger Soul Emperor is simply terrifying.
But when Huo Yuhao saw Dai Yueheng's gaze, he just rolled his eyes at him as if to say, "Are you an idiot?" This made Dai Yueheng feel powerless, like he was punching cotton.
Finally, there's Shrek Academy, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Star Luo National Academy, and the Imperial Academy of the Heavenly Soul Empire.
Dio? This name is really strange.
The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament has come to a close, and the end also means the climax is coming, because at this time the audience will see the bloodshed they want to see the most.
In order to allow the audience to better enjoy the competition and to allow each participating team member to compete in the best possible condition, it has been decided that the semi-finals of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament will be held in two days.
"Um?"
On the way back to the hotel, Huo Yuhao raised his eyebrows and looked up at the distance.
They were two rather distinctive people, the kind of people you wouldn't find on the street, but one of them had an exceptionally large head, like a bobblehead; the other had an extremely thick right arm, almost twice the size of his left arm.
The big-headed doll kept its eyes closed, seemingly not needing eyes to see where it was going, but Huo Yuhao could faintly sense extremely powerful spiritual energy emanating from it, indicating that it was at least at the same Spirit Abyss Realm as himself.
[I flipped through Douluo Continent III, and Spirit Abyss Realm mental power is basically standard for Soul Douluo, while Spirit Domain Realm is standard for Limit Douluo, with the presence of a Spirit Domain being a different story. In Douluo Continent II, mental power wasn't as emphasized, but the Body Sect probably valued it more than Shrek Academy. Plus, since a Martial Soul is one's head, it's normal for Lang Ya to have Spirit Abyss Realm mental power. Zhang Lexuan already has a 100,000-year Soul Ring, and being a genius, she should also be at the Spirit Abyss Realm.]
The big-headed man seemed to notice Huo Yuhao's gaze, slowly opened his eyes, nodded kindly to Huo Yuhao, made a gesture of invitation, and then the two figures disappeared one after the other.
Zhang Lexuan, who was traveling with them, also noticed something was wrong and asked in a low voice with some apprehension, "Yuhao, what's going on?"
Huo Yuhao blinked twice. "Hmm—they're probably here to win me over."
"ha?"
Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Teacher Le Xuan, you should go back first. I'll go and talk to them."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's answer, Zhang Lexuan's heart stirred slightly. She remembered what Huo Yuhao had told her before and gripped Huo Yuhao's shoulders tightly.
After letting out a heavy breath, Zhang Lexuan said calmly, "Okay, then be careful."
When Ma Xiaotao passed by Huo Yuhao, she seemed to want to say something, but Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly and gave her a reassuring smile.
After Zhang Lexuan and the others entered the Star Emperor Hotel, Huo Yuhao walked into the spacious lobby alone.
There were several sofas in the lounge area of the lobby, provided for customers to rest. The two people who had disappeared earlier were sitting there, seemingly waiting for someone.
When Huo Yuhao sat down opposite them, the big-headed man opened his eyes. His eyes were peculiar, unusually gentle. Although they were not as beautiful as Huo Yuhao's eyes, they did not inspire any desire to fight.
Huo Yuhao gave a calm smile. "What brings you two here?"
The man with the exceptionally large right arm couldn't help but ask, "Little guy, aren't you afraid we'll do something to you?"
Huo Yuhao shrugged. "This is the territory of the Star Luo Empire's royal family. If you two want to cause trouble, you should be the ones worrying. Besides—you two probably didn't come to me to harm me, otherwise why would you go to all this trouble?"
The big-headed man smiled gently. "You're really smart. You're indeed a promising talent from my Body Sect! Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lang Ya, and this is my brother Yu Tao. We've come to take you home."
Huo Yuhao tilted his head. "Go home?"
Lang Ya solemnly said, "We come from the Body Sect. The Body Sect is the home of all Soul Masters who possess a Body Martial Soul. Since your Martial Soul is an eye, then you are a member of the Body Sect. Now that we have discovered you, we will naturally guide you home."
really!
Huo Yuhao of the Body Sect naturally knew that it was the best sect that Baili Du had recommended he join back then.
Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and asked, "What benefits would joining the Body Sect bring me?"
The two were clearly led by the man named Langya, while the one named Yutao appeared to be a henchman.
Lang Ya said, "Your martial soul is your eyes, but it's of a spiritual attribute, which is different from Gu Tong's—if I'm not mistaken, your martial soul isn't just eyes, but a combination of eyes and brain, the highest level of physical martial soul!"
"But—" Lang Ya hesitated for a moment, "your martial soul doesn't seem to have awakened completely, because when you released your martial soul, there was no light or shadow of the brain."
"???"
This surprised Huo Yuhao somewhat. His Spirit Eye Martial Soul was actually a combination of eyes and brain? Even he himself didn't know that.
Then Lang Ya spread his palms with a hint of helplessness, "It's possible that I misjudged. After all, I still haven't figured out what your third and fourth soul skills are. I can only guess that the first two soul skills are detection-type and can be shared with others, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to react to the soul guide ray attack; the other one is related to simulation, I don't know if I'm right?"
Huo Yuhao looked at the big-headed doll with some surprise. As expected of the Body Sect, it's not simple!
Huo Yuhao also began to have some expectations for this most mysterious sect in the world.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's surprise, Lang Ya pressed on, "After all this talk, I still haven't asked. Young friend Huo Yuhao, are you willing to return to the Body Sect with us? With your talent, in less than twenty years—no, less than ten years—I'm sure the entire Soul Master world on the continent will be shaken because of you."
Huo Yuhao shook his head. "That's just empty talk. There was a sect leader who used to bother me all the time, making grand promises and saying that their sect would definitely return to the top of the world, and that I would be the restorer of that sect—but I still want to know what I can actually get by joining the Body Sect?"
Yu Tao seemed a little impatient, his fist radiating an explosive aura, but Lang Ya patiently continued to explain.
Geniuses are always different from ordinary people.
"Young friend Huo Yuhao, although you are studying at Shrek Academy, you should have at least heard of the deeds of the Body Sect, right?"
Huo Yuhao nodded silently, "I don't know much. After all, your sect has always been reclusive, and Shrek Academy and Body Sect have a feud. They wouldn't beautify their opponent."
Lang Ya took a deep breath, his voice quite heavy, "In the past, as a Spirit Master of the original body, I suffered a lot of scorn and ridicule from ordinary Spirit Masters because of the abnormality of my body. They regarded us as outcasts, even as evil Spirit Masters, and even rose up to attack us under the leadership of Shrek Academy —"
Huo Yuhao subconsciously glanced at Lang Ya's head and Yu Tao's arm, and nodded thoughtfully.
"Later, the first Grandmaster founded the Body Sect, widely recruiting disciples with Body Spirits. This allowed everyone to settle down and receive normal treatment. So it's true that all Soul Masters with Body Spirits are disciples of the Body Sect, because only the Body Sect truly understands the body's secrets. Your Soul Spirit hasn't awakened a second time yet, and you haven't fully experienced its true power. Come back with us, and the first thing we'll do is help you truly complete your second Soul Spirit awakening."
Then Langya gestured, and Yu Tao calmly raised his right arm, which was adorned with eight spirit rings: four purple and four black!
Huo Yuhao's pupils contracted slightly. He knew that Lang Ya was telling him that the Body Sect still had a way to advance the Soul Ring.
Then Yu Tao smiled slightly, and no one knew how he did it, but his thick right arm returned to its normal size.
"This is?"
This puzzled Huo Yuhao, but Lang Ya smiled calmly and didn't explain further: "As I just said, only the Body Sect truly understands the secrets of a Soul Master's body. As for the rest, I'm sorry, I can't say too much. I can only tell you after you join the Body Sect. But I can assure you that you will learn far more at the Body Sect than at Shrek Academy!"
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly and said calmly, "Let's talk about it after the competition."
There was neither rejection nor agreement, which means there's potential.
"No, you have to come with us now!"
With a furrowed brow, the short-tempered Yu Tao suddenly stood up, stretched out his right hand, and his normally sized arm suddenly became thick and large. He stretched out naturally and almost instantly touched Huo Yuhao's shoulder.
"ah----"
As if electrocuted, Yu Tao's right hand recoiled with lightning speed, revealing a bloody welt on his palm.
Huo Yuhao coldly lowered the Explainer from his hands. "Who gave you permission to touch me?!"
Yu Tao's face was deathly pale. Although he hadn't released his martial soul, as a member of the Body Sect, his right arm was his martial soul!
Huo Yuhao hadn't even used his martial spirit yet, and he had already pierced through the defenses of his right arm with a single sword strike—
"Kid, you—"
Lang Ya quickly pulled his brother back, "Yu Tao, don't be rude!"
Huo Yuhao looked at Lang Ya with an unfriendly expression. "Senior Lang Ya, it seems that the Body Sect is not as close as you say, like a family."
Lang Ya slapped Yu Tao on the head in an annoyed tone, then bowed slightly in apology, "I'm sorry, young friend Yu Hao, it was my brother who was rude. I apologize on his behalf. Just like you said, we'll come find you after this competition ends, and we'll talk in detail then."
Then Langya pulled him outside.
"Second Brother—!"
"Isn't it embarrassing enough already?!"
He seemed very afraid of his second brother, keeping his head down and not daring to speak the whole way.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes slightly.
As can be seen from Yu Tao's actions just now, the Body Sect always acts as it pleases, without regard for the consequences.
This is a recipe for disaster—do you really want to join a sect like this?
However, the title "the home of a Soul Master" was very appealing, making Huo Yuhao yearn for it.
Let's try getting to know each other first. After all, Baili Du once said he was willing to join this sect.
