Chapter 100: Shrek's Power

Gu Yue Na sensed Yu Longheng's gaze observing Huo Yuhao, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. "Yuhao."

Huo Yuhao shook his head and transmitted his voice: "He's merely being influenced by bloodline power."

Under the fluctuation of blood qi, the bloodline aura on him couldn't be concealed; Mu Ye was naturally delighted, but for the owner of a dragon clan martial soul, it was a disaster... The one suffering was the other party; being looked at twice amounted to nothing.

However... Shrek Academy, ah.

Huo Yuhao glanced at Ning Yue and Yu Longheng, and asked in his Spiritual Sea:

"There are currently four Limit Douluo in Shrek, right?"

"Correct." The Snow Empress in the Spiritual Sea nodded. "Light and Dark, Erqing, Wu Qing, Duo Qing — four Limit Douluo in total. The first three are all from Shrek Academy; Light and Dark was the Sea God Pavilion's Vice-Master a hundred years ago, Erqing and Wu Qing Douluo are from the same generation of Shrek Seven Monsters, and the latter was even the captain."

"As for Duo Qing... he isn't from Shrek Academy; he once stayed in the Federal Military, but during his travels on the Continent he encountered Wu Qing Douluo, discovered the two could perform a Soul Fusion Skill, and simply followed Wu Qing Douluo."

Huo Yuhao: "..."

In this life we are brothers, in the next life we'll be husband and wife!

Recalling that line the two had said, Huo Yuhao surprisingly didn't find it strange.

Douluo's Soul Fusion Skills... those who understand, understand.

The Snow Empress continued: "By now, Shrek Academy uses the immortal herbs of the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well to attract students and some clan powers to join, and its influence is indeed flourishing. Take the Nine Treasures Liuli Sect — if they could obtain the Hereditary Spirit Soul of the Yearning Heartbroken Grass from the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well, they could pass down the Nine Treasures Liuli Pagoda martial soul generation after generation; one can imagine Shrek Academy's attraction to them... although they haven't succeeded even until now."

A full four Limit Douluo, the number one person of the current era — Erqing Douluo, the number one control of the current era — Duo Qing Douluo, and Wu Qing Douluo and Duo Qing Douluo even have a Soul Fusion Skill.

Whether Mingde Hall or the War God Hall, a single force's individual combat power cannot compare to Shrek; adding the attraction of the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well's immortal herb spirit souls, some clans are also betting on Shrek. They indeed have the capital to be proud.

Hereditary Spirit Souls ultimately cannot only benefit the Spirit Pagoda; the attraction of immortal herb Hereditary Spirit Souls is equally powerful.

"However, although Shrek Academy is very strong, its conduct is somewhat... overbearing; those dissatisfied with it are probably not few."

The Snow Empress's delicate brows furrowed: "There are actually people inside the Spirit Pagoda who want to be more high-profile, but with me and Di Tian suppressing them, they merely dare not show their faces."

Having heard the Snow Empress's explanation, Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes, sinking into contemplation.

Arriving at Tianhun City, Yu Longheng and Ning Yue got off the train; the former looked back, gazing deeply at the Soul Guidance Train, then turned and left.

Being able to suppress his martial soul meant that the blue-eyed youth could suppress their entire Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Sect.

No one likes being suppressed, and he was no exception.

Let alone that it was someone who could suppress their entire sect!

'Come to think of it, that youth's appearance seems familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere.'

Yu Longheng walked along the road, frowning, unable to recall it in the end, and glanced again at the train's direction of travel. "Donghai City, is it?"

A Soul Master from Donghai City?

Interesting; perhaps we'll meet again.

Facts proved that Evil Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent currently do not act frequently, and Huo Yuhao's trio's luck wasn't that bad either; the Soul Guidance Train they rode did not encounter any terrifying attacks.

Aside from the interlude with Shrek along the way, nothing else happened.

Day and night alternated; on the third day at noon, the Soul Guidance Train stopped at Donghai Station, the three disembarked, and boarded a Spirit Pagoda-dispatched Soul Guidance Car heading straight for the Donghai Spirit Pagoda.

"The Spirit Pagoda's power is indeed vast; finding those heavenly treasures to help you cultivate becomes much simpler."

Nearing the Donghai Spirit Pagoda, seeing that magnificent building, Mu Ye exclaimed: "If ten thousand years ago the Spirit Pagoda had emerged earlier, the outcome of that war should have been rewritten..."

Speaking halfway, thinking of the two children beside him, Mu Ye gave a light cough and stopped discussing the matter, changing the subject.

"By the way, how is Sister Na?"

Mu Ye looked at Gu Yue Na, who seemed uninterested.

This girl seems a bit nervous?

Huo Yuhao laughed: "I stole the Heavenly Phoenix His Excellency's heartwarming little padded jacket; she's come to demand responsibility, so Sister Na is a bit worried, right."

Mu Ye raised an eyebrow, looking thoughtful.

The Heavenly Phoenix His Excellency is here too, ah...

Gu Yue Na blanked for a moment, turning her head to look at Huo Yuhao.

Could the meaning of 'stole' be...

Gu Yue Na's eyes held a few more points of shyness and fluster; she subconsciously straightened her posture, masking it with the cold expression she usually wore for outsiders.

But Huo Yuhao, who had already seen this true face of hers, shook his head amusedly and said in a gentle tone: "Don't worry, your Reverse Scale... I've already accepted it."

The Gu Yue Na he knew had a surprisingly good personality, and definitely had feelings for the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo, but facing Leng Yaozhu, she shouldn't be nervous to this extent.

What she was worried about should be related to his reply.

"The matter of the Reverse Scale... doesn't count." Gu Yue Na's complexion grew even redder: "At that time, I actually didn't understand my own feelings."

"Not counting is useless either; I've already accepted the gift. If you don't take it back, it's like..." Huo Yuhao looked at the bracelet on Gu Yue Na's wrist, "... I also don't return the Star's Favor."

Gu Yue Na's gaze shifted to the Star's Favor; her mood gradually relaxed, her dark eyes softening.

Mhm, Yuhao won't take it back, so she won't return it either.

Thinking this, Gu Yue Na subconsciously brushed aside the green strands by her ear and said softly:

"Yuhao, sorry to have worried you. Before, I just couldn't calm down."

"It's nothing; as long as you're fine." Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly.

Hearing this, Gu Yue Na looked at Huo Yuhao, feeling her mood grow even more stable; she also glanced at Mu Ye, who was watching them with a smile while they transmitted voices, and changed the subject.

"Yuhao, your plan is proceeding very smoothly now; do you need my help?"

"..." Huo Yuhao's movements paused, his tone strange. "Let me ask tentatively: in your eyes, what is my plan?"

I often seem out of place because my brain circuits can't keep up with yours, Grandmaster Ya.

Gu Yue Na blanked, then explained: "The current relationship between humans and soul beasts is very harmonious, but with the birth of Artificial Spirit Soul Technology, Di Tian and the others' lifespan limits are gradually approaching; the situation afterward may not be optimistic."

"I originally planned to understand humans, then step by step reach the peak in human identity, become a god, then lead humans and soul beasts together to defeat the Abyssal Plane, and with prestige surpassing yours, lead all humans and soul beasts into the next era... after all, humans and soul beasts are now deeply bound; unless necessary, I also don't want to go to extremes."

"But seeing you appear in the East Sea, I worried your Spirit Tool Prestige would influence my plan, so I came to check the situation. Now that things have reached this point, I discover your plan should be similar to mine, even more complete than mine. So I intend to assist you in completing the plan. The First Generation Tower Master's return is more perfect than my plan."

Looking at the current state, Yuhao should be intending to advance step by step in the Spirit Pagoda toward the Peak, achieve godhood through the Soul Master System, then oppose the Abyss; this is about the same as her plan, right?

The difference lies in that she is faking godhood, while Huo Yuhao intends to truly achieve godhood through the Soul Master System. Moreover, Yuhao's plan is far more thorough than hers; the Body Sect, Divine Craftsman Zhenhua are all factored in, and afterwards there will certainly be more people joining his side, further expanding Influence.

Huo Yuhao: "... Not quite, but there are indeed similarities."

Teacher Da Ye is actually a Career Dragon? It was only because of his Influence that she stopped?

Mood suddenly somewhat Complex.

……

Walk Into the Spirit Pagoda Association Hall; before Huo Yuhao's Three People could go upstairs, a tall red-haired woman walked out from the Elevator.

"Vice Tower Master." Seeing her, the Soul Tower Staff all rose to salute.

Mu Ye also nodded, "Seen Before Tian Feng Guan Xia."

"Body Douluo, long time no see."

Leng Yaozhu smiled and nodded, Gaze turning toward Huo Yuhao, eyes faintly carrying a Trace of Scrutinize, "First meeting, I am Gu Yue Na's teacher, Leng Yaozhu."
