Douluo: The Peerless Sun, Moon, and Yuhao

Chapter 224 Huo Yuhao captures the little white shark for the second time
"Students who have changed their clothes, line up and come one by one to receive your soul rings."

Lin Xi, who was wearing a researcher's white coat, held up a loudspeaker and kept shouting at the students of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy who were walking out of the passage of the men's and women's locker rooms one by one.

The highest cultivation level of these students, who have just entered school for a few years, is generally only level [-]. After all, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy is the number one academy in the Sun and Moon Empire. If you are still using a thousand-year soul ring after you have reached five rings, you will be criticized by others. Ridiculous.

As for why in the original book, during the second competition, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy had official team members who did not have the best soul ring matching, the first academy of soul masters was so poor that even the seven students with the best soul ring matching could not be gathered together. At this point... let's just think of it as a ridiculous misunderstanding.

Although the academy did reserve ten thousand year soul beasts at the beginning to reward the best students, those two few ten thousand year soul beasts had already been pulled out while Huo Yuhao was training to prepare Xu Tianzhen's food. The country sacrificed...

Even if the soul beast is fused to the volunteer, it is not impossible to pay some price to separate it and re-integrate it, but that requires that the process of separation and inheritance must be closely connected... In other words, students must be allowed to witness the separation of souls with their own eyes. A bloody process!
After much thought, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy still gave up on the reward of this wave of ten thousand-year souls.

At this time, the students who were wearing slippers and walking out of the locker room all changed into hospital gowns and curiously looked at this building that integrates scientific research and medical care.

According to the academy, since the souls that were rewarded were also experimental products, although in theory only benign mutations would occur, for safety reasons the students were still required to stay in the hospital for observation for a few days to monitor various physiological indicators. They were all happy before departure. A confidentiality agreement was signed.

Bai Xiuxiu, who had put on hospital clothes, looked up curiously as well. The air here seemed to be filled with the smell of disinfectant. According to knowledgeable students, the whole place must be sterilized every day.

The atmosphere here is really... very different from that in the academy. Seeing adults walking around wearing masks whose faces can't be seen clearly makes people feel anxious.

However, Bai Xiuxiu, a well-known person in her grade, did not feel much worry or anxiety. The classmates who had also changed their clothes quickly formed a small circle around her and started talking.

When the last volunteer student left the locker room, Lin Xi, who came to complete the first task assigned by Huo Yuhao, quickly arranged for these students to sit down in the waiting area one by one, and then someone pushed a small dining cart to serve the students. Distribute breakfast.

"I need to make some additional explanations regarding the students coming to receive the welfare soul rings."

Lin Xi stood in front of the students with his hands behind his back. His more than one year as an exchange student at Shrek had greatly improved his psychological quality and aura. At least it would not be a problem to convince these students who usually have a sense of superiority among their classmates.

Even if you don't mention that Huo Yuhao's promise of "the position of Soul Palace Elder or even Heavenly Lord" gave him a lot of confidence, Lin Xi's own aura was enough to scare these students away from making random noises.

Do you understand the value of being the second-in-command of the team to be selected for the first championship fighting spirit competition in history and being invited by Shrek's name?As an agility-based soul master, Lin Xi could even call himself Shi Yimin in the Sun and Moon Empire.

"I have told my classmates before that the soul beasts assigned to you were once used as experimental supplies; but for confidentiality reasons, what has not been disclosed to the classmates in advance is that you yourself will also be lucky enough to participate in a great experiment and become a contributor. Be part of!”

"Now, I can finally reveal the truth that I have kept secret to everyone; you are very lucky, you will be the first batch of people to use the soul!"

The unfamiliar term "soul" immediately gave the best students in this group of colleges a somewhat unusual smell, and whispers immediately broke out in the field.

"You are all the pride of the academy like me. I will not go into details about the specific confidentiality regulations. Next, I will briefly introduce to you the content of the experiment you will participate in."

Lin Xi said with a straight face and seriously: "Let me explain in advance, if any student has concerns and wants to withdraw after listening to the introduction, it's okay, but he must stay here and wait to leave with the others."

"At the same time, the benefits he gave up will be received by the unsuccessful candidates."

Lin Xi's serious look, combined with the current atmosphere, made the students pay all their attention.

Lin Xi briefly introduced various information about the soul according to the lines prepared by Huo Yuhao. Unsurprisingly, none of the students in front of him chose to quit at this time.

Although they have not seen it with their own eyes, the soul sounds better than ordinary soul rings in all aspects. If they miss it this time, it is hard to say whether they will get the opportunity to fuse the soul for free next time.

If this later thing is really verified, it is estimated that the organization that masters or even monopolizes this technology has the potential to become a treasure trove no less than Mingdetang. How can such a good thing be free?

Step by step, step by step, being a soul master means competing with opponents for all possible resources in order to stand out and grow quickly, not to mention that they also believe that the academy will never entrust their safety to a life-threatening experiment.

"Very good. You are worthy of being the elite of the academy." Lin Xi had a smile on his face.

"Then the list will be announced. According to the principle of grade from low to high and ranking from high to low, students who have their turn will be asked to go to the designated place in turn under the guidance of the staff; first grade, No. 1, Bai Xiuxiu, No. 2... …”

Watching Bai Xiuxiu being led away to another corridor by the staff, the students couldn't help but have a bit of envy in their eyes, but they soon turned to relief.

The lower grades go to Lei first, and those with good grades get priority in picking soul beasts. This is very reasonable.

Anyway, their share of soul beasts will not be missing. As for the quality of soul beasts in the Sun and Moon Empire, the upper and lower limits are not much different. They are very satisfied to be the first batch of lucky ones to try out the soul beasts.

After all the twists and turns, in a discussion room next to the corridor, Huo Yuhao was flipping through the resume of a student's welfare application that listed in detail all the things worth bragging about in his life, and took a sip of boiled water with a calm expression.

When he was formulating the order of the list, he had some stupid considerations of balance and grand chess. He just found any reason to put Bai Xiuxiu at the top. As long as he set enough filtering conditions, anyone could be put at the top.

There are only two experiences on Bai Xiuxiu's resume: Innate soul power and No. 1 in the mid-term assessment of the first grade. Even if you look at it from another person, this is a concise but not simple resume. Compared with "Mingdu Little Soul Instructor Competition, No. 1 in the preschool group" .[-]" is much more attractive.

However, these two items were unattractive to Huo Yuhao. He chose Bai Xiuxiu as the first person to interrogate based on his name and the full-color photo on his resume.

In the photo, Bai Xiuxiu is wearing the first-grade uniform, with a sweet smile on her lips.Although the clothes are completely different from those in the Dou Si period in the comics, the blue hair color and eye color are enough to speak for themselves.

Huo Yuhao's mood was very complicated at this time. It was bizarre enough that he and Teacher Xuan went to sea to pick up Bai Xiuxiu who was accidentally stranded, but this girl actually transformed, transformed...

Shouldn't she only have 8 years of cultivation?

Moreover, unless a 10-year-old soul beast is desperate, how can it easily choose to transform?
Countless thoughts were intertwined in Huo Yuhao's heart, and the knock on the door made his mind break out of his thoughts.

"Please come in."

The researcher responsible for guiding the way nodded to Huo Yuhao: "This is classmate Bai Xiuxiu."

"clear."

When she saw Huo Yuhao's face sitting behind the desk with his hands on his chin, Bai Xiuxiu felt her breath suffocate, and her little heart that was almost frightened a few days ago showed signs of escaping again.

This is not, this is not the kind person who helped him get out of trouble...

It took a lot of effort to prevent herself from showing too much abnormality. Bai Xiuxiu forced a smile and sat down on the chair prepared for her dignifiedly.

"Hello, I am Bai Xiuxiu."

Huo Yuhao also smiled slightly: "Hello, classmate."

In the sea of ​​​​spirits, Brother Tianmeng, who was lying on the beach chairs with Ice Emperor on the left and right, each holding a bag of potato chips offered by Xiao Xie Pidian Dian, raised his sun visor and looked at it pretendingly.

"The little girl is quite handsome in person, just like in the photo."

The sunglasses on Ice Emperor's eyes did not move at all, and he sneered: "I didn't expect that Tianmeng, you have quite a lot of guts."

"It's unfair, Bing'er, I clearly only have you in my heart! She is just a human being in her teens! I am just making an objective judgment..."

The look in Hyokui's sunglasses became even more sinister, and the bag of potato chips in her hand was crushed by her.

Because the image she created... she looked like a girl around 20 years old.

Snow Emperor, who was driving a sightseeing boat slowly wandering in the sea of ​​​​spirits, smiled slightly when he saw this, adjusted the angle of the awning, and changed to a more elegant posture with his back to Tianmeng and Ice Emperor on the shore.

As people who are truly dependent on Huo Yuhao for life and death, they know that Huo Yuhao has a series of ideas based on souls and soul temples to gather immortal resources to help become a god. They see that Huo Yuhao's career has made a good start, and he has successfully advanced to the fifth ring to absorb the Snow Pill seal. The energy of the Three Extremely Northern Kings has been in a very good mood recently.

But what Huo Yuhao blurted out next made the three of them stop their movements, and even caused the sea of ​​​​spirits to stir slightly.

Bai Xiuxiu, who was just happy that she didn't seem to attract attention, felt a mental wave forcefully connecting with herself before she was happy for a few seconds.

Out of spiritual instinct, Bai Xiuxiu sensed that this connection must come from the young man in front of her who was not wearing school uniform.

"Hey, stupid little shark, why do you want to go ashore?"

"The human world is very dangerous. Are you too full and want to go ashore and become sashimi yourself?"

The Three Kings of the Far North looked at each other, dumbfounded.

Tianmeng and Ice Emperor, who had been in a low-power standby state, quickly became serious and used their ferocious beast eyes to examine carefully. They stood up and Bai Xiuxiu, who looked frightened and uneasy, immediately looked at each other.

"Tianmeng, she is not..."

"That's right, it's her!"

Seriously, although Snow Emperor also saw through Bai Xiuxiu's true identity, he felt confused about the encrypted call between Tianmeng and Ice Emperor.

"The she you are talking about...is she? No, how should I say this..."

When Huo Yuhao followed Xuan Ziwen out to sea to pick up sharks, the Snow Emperor was still holding back in the Conferred God Platform!
Bai Xiuxiu, whose face suddenly lost all color, was in a state of confusion, and was even more frightened than when her identity was revealed for the first time a few days ago.

What kind of evil have I done? I have avoided many titled Douluo face to face, but my disguise has been exposed by people who are not very high in terms of cultivation!

In the past, this little brother let him go when there was no need for soul rings, but now he must know that he has reached 10 years of cultivation...

The 10-year-old soul beast and the [-]-year-old soul beast are two very different concepts!
Especially now that he may not be able to escape even if he wants to after reincarnation, and he has no ability to fight back in terms of cultivation. He can completely keep himself in captivity and then kill himself when necessary.

When I think of the novel that the male protagonist reincarnated thousands of years ago and established a huge harem...

Isn't what happened to Xiao Wu in that novel what I feared the most?Not only was she imprisoned and waiting to explode her soul ring and soul bones, she even gave birth to a child for the male protagonist.

Bai Xiuxiu felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen, but then she thought about it. She was obviously still a child... No, this little brother obviously didn't need a 10-year soul ring. He would be an adult in a few years...

People's hearts are fickle, and you can't apply a stereotype to someone when the background and environment are different!

"Help...help!" Bai Xiuxiu shouted for help and quickly looked for the most convenient escape route.Looking at Bai Xiuxiu who was panicking and even wanted to break out of the window, Huo Yuhao could probably guess what she was thinking...well, only the most normal part.

"Idiot, what's your name?"

You will be in real trouble only if someone outside hears it!

Huo Yuhao cursed and appeared in front of Bai Xiuxiu in a flash.

"what?"

Bai Xiuxiu's eyes widened, but the next moment, Huo Yuhao led her to the chair and forced her to sit down.

During the spiritual connection, a ferocious beast's pressure swept over Bai Xiuxiu, making Bai Xiuxiu, who was already panicked, feel a shiver from her soul.

"I'm sorry, don't kill me. I will listen to you and I will do anything..."

Bai Xiuxiu quickly begged for mercy with her eyes closed.

But when she calmed down a little, she found that her hands had been tied in a tight knot behind the chair by Huo Yuhao at some point.

"If you scream again, something will really happen."

Huo Yuhao stood up and said angrily with his hands behind his back.

"I……"

Bai Xiuxiu blinked and was stunned for a moment, and then recalled the terrifying pressure that made her want to shrink back to the fry state.

Is it, is it...

I have found my comrade and my thighs again!
Huo Yuhao stared coldly at the panicked Bai Xiuxiu, causing the latter's emotions to slowly calm down, and the rise and fall of his chest to gradually calm down.

"Um...are you also a ferocious beast? No, how did you find out my identity?"

Huo Yuhao picked up the resume on the table and pasted it on Bai Xiuxiu's face.

"Are you stupid? It doesn't matter if the martial soul is the Demonic Great White Shark. Why don't you even know how to change the name?"

"Ah?!" Bai Xiuxiu never dreamed that this could become a flaw.

"I, I...the soul beast has not changed its name..."

"Oh, it's a good thing you met a kind person like me, otherwise you would have been waiting for death if you met a hot woman who still remembers that incident or Teacher Xuan first."

Huo Yuhao's reply temporarily reassured Bai Xiuxiu.

Sure enough...kindness is an innate quality that goes deep into the bone marrow!
"Don't you still have 2 years of cultivation? Why did you come ashore? What's going on? Tell me the truth first." Huo Yuhao asked with a straight face.

"Okay, okay, um... why don't you untie the rope for me first? It's very uncomfortable. Anyway, even if I run away, I won't be able to escape the pursuit." Bai Xiuxiu whispered.

In the sea of ​​​​spirits, Brother Tianmeng's sunglasses fell to the ground in shock.

Hyokui's sunglasses were also half down.

"So...Yu Hao actually figured out this girl's identity based on her name and martial arts?!"

Ice Emperor took a breath: "It would be too embarrassing if this was a joke... But he actually got fooled."

Snow Emperor steered the sightseeing boat to the shore, and was still frightened by the sudden series of changes in front of him: "He is worthy of being selected by us to carry out the god-making plan... It is really terrifying!"

"Indeed, terrifying."

"It's so scary!"

…………

The western frontier of the Tianhun Empire, outside Xining City.

An officer of the Free Western Frontier Regiment took a list of equipment from the opposite officer wearing nondescript military uniforms.

"Check and accept it. This batch of equipment for Xining City's defense is here. If there is no problem, just sign."

After handing over the list, the officer in non-standard military uniform lit a cigarette and looked at the surrounding scenery and said casually.

The officer of the Free Western Frontier Corps nodded, then opened an ammunition box and began to inventory and inspect the equipment.

As a member of the Tianhun Empire's troops stationed in the Western Territory, he, like most of his comrades, was a native of the Western Territory.

When his hometown and his motherland were on opposite sides, he made the same choice as most people - to redefine his new motherland.

Their lifelong wealth, relatives and social relationships are all firmly bound to this land. Since the people above have made their choices, they have no choice but to drift away and abandon their homes and careers and flee, waiting to regain their hometown one day. There is a way to go.

The ammunition box is a 3*3 standard fourth-level soul-guided artillery shell box, but only the top two rows are filled with shells, and the bottom row is empty.

The officers were not surprised by this. Anyway, their legion only counted the real number. They just signed the military aid list so that the friend in front of them could take it back and use it.

The important arms are all in the hands of the Sun and Moon Empire, and there is no second helper. So what if they are exposed in protest?Take it or not.

"Oh, by the way, I have a new order, please convey it here."

The officer in non-standard military uniform held a cigarette between his arms and turned to the officer of the Free Western Xinjiang Legion who had cooperated many times.

He had nominally retired from the Sun-Moon Empire's army before leaving the Sun-Moon Empire's borders, and now he was conducting material allocation and military guidance in his personal capacity.

If unfortunately he is captured, the Sun and Moon Empire will not recognize him for the time being.But who asked Xijiang to pay for the overseas subsidies that are ten times the domestic military salary?There are too many people who want to give it a try. If they don’t do it, others will.

"Huh? Are you going to take new action against the Heavenly Soul Empire?"

Since most of the soul masters stationed in the Tianhun Empire were destroyed, a few fled, and most of the troops also defected, the territory of Western Xinjiang has fallen into an eerie calm except for strict restrictions on population movement. There was a firefight.

Before the Heavenly Soul Empire had time to mobilize heavy troops to annihilate the rebels, it declined the good intentions of the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire to provide mobile troops for them to borrow troops to help in the suppression.

Troubling friendly countries with everything seems to be too incompetent.

"That's not true. I guess many people are happy to see your current petty feud."

The former officer of the Sun and Moon Empire smiled and then pointed to the sky:

"The new order is for you to help collect the corpses... A lot of people died in the most chaotic period before, right? It's useless for you to keep them anyway, so why not give them out in exchange for some help."

"Corpse? What do you want with that thing?"

The former officer of the Sun and Moon Empire spread his hands: "If I had known, I would be giving orders in Mingdu right now."

"Is there a quantity requirement?"

"There is no limit, and we don't insist on freshness. Just have a skeleton... Forget it, let me make it clear, even if it is dug out of a grave, it will be fine. There are many corpses piled everywhere in the wild. This is not acceptable. Can't you smoke them? We understand the need for manpower, but you don’t want a plague to break out at this time, right?”

The officer of the Free Western Frontier Legion frowned: "This order is really... Damn, I still have a conscience. The thought that this thing might be used by the evil soul master makes me want to die from guilt."

"Hey, brother, what are you thinking about? The evil soul master only wants a corpse that's hot, not a corpse that's cold, let alone one dug out of a grave."

"This...that's what you said..."

"5.00% of the military aid amount obtained from the corpses you sent me will be converted into gold soul coins, which can be deposited in the bearer account of the Sun and Moon Empire Bank."

The former Sun and Moon Empire officer smiled, lit another cigarette and handed it to his old friend.

"In the future, brother, if you don't want to fight, or if Duke Anxi is hanged, you can immigrate to the Sun and Moon Empire for a clean life. Do you want your children to grow up precariously in Xining City, or do you want your children to grow up in Xining City, which is many times more prosperous? Mingdu is rich in clothes and fine food?"

The officer of the Free Western Frontier Legion's eyes flashed slightly, he took the cigarette and thought for a moment:

"You know, due to cultural reasons, it is a bit taboo to dig up graves... But it is only limited to graves where descendants pay homage. No one cares about mass graves."

"Also, some of the recent deceased have relatives and friends who are still alive and want to take care of the funeral arrangements. It is not convenient for these people. It is more convenient for those who were die-hard loyalists to the Heavenly Soul Empire and were left unclaimed after being killed."

"Oh yes, I still have some corpses of soul masters here. Can the price be increased?"

The former officer of the Sun and Moon Empire laughed: "Of course, don't worry about the price, it will definitely be the most suitable. We are grasshoppers on the same rope. Oh, yes, we also want some well-preserved animal carcasses. The stronger we are in life, the better. Well, it’s best to have a trained spirit beast like a military dog…”

"Don't worry, I won't fool you with the watchdog."

The two officers tacitly agreed not to mention the matter again. After all the equipment was symbolically counted aside, the acceptance form was signed and prepared to be taken back to the Sun and Moon Empire for the closed-loop write-off process.

It's just that neither of them can figure it out... What can be done with those corpses that even the evil soul master finds troublesome and doesn't want to use them?
Well, it's useless to think too much. They shouldn't speculate on the thoughts of the big shots in Mingdu. There are so many people hiding behind and secretly issuing all kinds of weird orders.
