Chapter 6: The Spirit Pagoda Standing at the Peak of the Continent!
After choosing his spirit soul, Huo Yuhao, following Hua Yichen's instructions, stood at the center of the Association Hall with his spirit soul, looking at the dim arrays around him and understanding everything in his heart.
It was an array for assisting the contract; after ten thousand years of development, it was no longer what it originally looked like.
However, the Spirit Pagoda did not have the ability to move the core of the Spirit Soul Contract; to sign a contract, the spirit soul's consent was still needed.
Smiling at Huo Yuhao, Hua Yichen gave a few instructions, muttered some words under his breath, and began chanting the Spirit Soul Contract left behind by the Ling Bing Douluo.
The spirit souls here were provided by the Star Dou Great Forest and the Extreme North; they had long agreed to exist as spirit souls and had been waiting for Soul Masters to choose them, so no other steps were needed.
Golden ripples began with Hua Yichen, rapidly spreading outward, eventually enveloping both Huo Yuhao and the spirit soul in his hand.
"Tianmeng Ge."
"Alright, I'm coming!"
Hearing Huo Yuhao's reminder, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in his Spiritual Sea began to act, occupying the position of the first spirit soul of the Spirit Eyes before the contract was signed.
Joking aside, he was Yuhao's first spirit soul; how could he let a junior snatch his position?
As for Huo Yuhao, he used his Spiritual Power to wrap around the bewildered Ice Silkworm and temporarily pulled it into his Spiritual Sea.
The contract core remained unchanged; since he was the founder of the Spirit Soul Contract, making a few tweaks within it meant it was no difficulty at all to let Tianmeng occupy the contract position.
Because he could not produce soul rings on his own, Huo Yuhao needed some spirit souls to supplement him, but not now.
From Hua Yichen's perspective, the Ice Silkworm spirit soul gradually became illusory and finally merged into Huo Yuhao's body, and a yellow soul ring appeared outside his body.
Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged accordingly, a soft soul power glow lingering on his body as he entered a meditative state.
Seeing this, Hua Yichen did not disturb him and quietly left the room.
Not long after leaving the room, a staff member came up to him and handed him a set of records.
It contained Huo Yuhao's basic information, including family background, address, and so on.
Hua Yichen's gaze lingered for a moment on his parents' divorce and his mother's death, and he raised an eyebrow.
He was an orphan; no wonder he was so mature, not even nervous in front of him.
But it was also for the best; without family, Huo Yuhao would feel a greater sense of belonging to the Spirit Pagoda.
When Hua Yichen looked away from the records, the staff member continued reporting:
"Tower Master, I have already sent Huo Yuhao's information to the Headquarters, but have not received a reply yet. Do we need to prepare a special plane in advance to send Huo Yuhao to the Headquarters?"
"No need." The staff member's words reminded Hua Yichen; he thought of the complex and intertwined forces at the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters today, shook his head, and said, "The sky of Donghai City is a bit small, but providing early-stage cultivation resources is still no problem."
With Huo Yuhao's talent, going to the Headquarters to cultivate was a matter of time, but not now.
The Spirit Soul Contract left behind by the Ling Bing Douluo deeply bound the soul beasts and the Spirit Pagoda, leading to the fact that for so many years, the high-ranking officials of the Spirit Pagoda did not dare to overstep the mark in the slightest when targeting soul beasts.
This was a good thing, but also a bad thing.
The benefit was that with the support of the soul beasts' power, the Spirit Pagoda was pushed to the peak, with extremely strong combat strength.
Counting the side of the soul beasts, the Spirit Pagoda now possessed seven powerhouses comparable to Limit Douluo, four of whom were Quasi-Gods!
Which force in the world had more powerhouses than them?
Even Shrek Academy, at the height of its glory, could not match them in the number of powerhouses!
But the greater the power and the stronger the strength, since no one could suppress all the heroes, internal troubles would naturally arise.
The Spirit Pagoda Headquarters today was a great vat of dyeing, with various forces deeply entangled and open and secret struggles never ceasing.
Letting a half-grown child go in would be of no benefit at all to his growth.
At least they had to wait until Huo Yuhao had a certain strength and a worldview capable of discerning right from wrong before sending him to the Headquarters.
Thinking this, Hua Yichen suddenly revealed a trace of a smile.
With this kid around, the younger generation of the Qian Gu Clan in the future probably had an opponent, and the Tower Master of Qian Gu Tower would have a headache, huh.
Mingdu, as the capital of the Sun Moon Empire before it unified the Continent, even after ten thousand years, its development had not fallen behind; it was still the most modernized city of the Douluo Federation and the western core of the entire Douluo Continent.
In the central area of Mingdu, a tower-shaped building eighty-one stories high stood there, extremely magnificent.
It was none other than the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters!
Unlike the original work, because Huo Yuhao had not joined Shrek Academy, the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters was not set up in Shrek City; instead, because the Sun Moon Empire was the ultimate victor, the Headquarters was finally placed in Mingdu, where the Federation government was located.
On the top floor of the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, a tall and slender woman sat behind a desk, with a beautiful appearance and long red hair scattered behind her.
She reached out to fiddle with the Soul Guidance Screen on the desk, looking at the information inside, and smiled with great interest, "Huo Yuhao, a genius with Innate Full Soul Power, Body Martial Soul, and Spiritual Power reaching three hundred? This innate Spiritual Power is even stronger than yours."
Saying this, Spirit Pagoda Vice Tower Master Leng Yaozhu looked at the little girl beside her and smiled gently:
"Look, there are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people; I've said there are quite a few geniuses in this world, you must not slack off, Sister Na."
The girl called Sister Na had short silver hair, and her exquisite face was like a finely carved porcelain doll.
At this moment, she was also looking at Huo Yuhao's information, her amethyst-like eyes shining brightly, and she nodded slightly upon hearing the words.
"Mm, I understand, Teacher."
Spirit Eye Martial Soul... and this appearance, it was indeed the Huo Yuhao Di Tian spoke of.
Ten thousand years had passed, yet he was still alive?
Gu Yue Na was surprised in her heart, but it did not show on her face; she looked up at Leng Yaozhu and smiled slightly, "Teacher, you called me here today not just for this matter, right?"
"Of course not." Leng Yaozhu lovingly stroked her disciple's hair, "Your martial soul has awakened; do you want to continue staying at the Spirit Pagoda to cultivate, or do you want to go to the academy to study?"
Gu Yue Na shook her head somewhat awkwardly, drew back to free herself from Leng Yaozhu's palm, "I'll listen to Teacher."
"This child is still not used to being close to me."
Leng Yaozhu withdrew her palm somewhat helplessly.
"Then for the next three years, you will study with me first; after that, I will send you to the Soul Master Academy before the Rotation Ceremony. Tell me in advance if there is a place you want to go."
The atmosphere of the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters was really not suitable for a child to stay here; Leng Yaozhu certainly did not want her disciple to learn intrigue and scheming from a young age.
Especially three years later, it would be another ten years; according to the regulations of the First Generation Tower Master, the Spirit Pagoda would hold the Rotation Ceremony again to elect one Tower Master and three Vice Tower Masters. Although judging by the current situation, the result would not change, but there would inevitably be a bloodbath...
Leng Yaozhu's expression was grave; looking at Gu Yue Na, she secretly sighed.
If Gu Yue Na were not still young, still in the stage of laying foundations, she would truly wish for the other party to leave this place of troubles and pass a happy childhood.
"The place I want to go..."
Gu Yue Na murmured to herself, and could not help but look towards Huo Yuhao's records.
A human prodigy who appeared like a meteor, yet gave the Soul Beasts a chance to continue on, letting them not be submerged in the waves of the era.
Why did he do this? And why was he able to live until now?
Most importantly, would the other party bring influence to her plan?
These, especially the last point, were matters Gu Yue Na had to confirm.
Therefore, Gu Yue Na gave her answer.
"I want to go..."
