Douluo: The Peerless Sun, Moon, and Yuhao

Chapter 255 Please summon the Doukai, Teacher Xuan!

Fan Yu, who was ordered to deliver a handwritten letter to Huo Yuhao, went back sighing.

The "hostage" Huo Yuhao requested as a condition for departure was required to be reported to the academy according to the rules, and Poseidon Pavilion would make a decision; but no matter how he thought about it, Fan Yu didn't think that this condition, which clearly represented rejection, would be accepted by the academy.

Of the previous generation of Shrek's Seven Monsters, only Ling Luochen is left to be used by the academy in the future, and Poseidon Pavilion was originally optimistic about the next generation of Shrek's Seven Monsters...

He Caitou is still serving his sentence at the cotton planting base, and Xiao Xiao's study and life in Mingdu seem to be going very smoothly.

After Wang Dong (er) took a leave of absence from the academy, he somehow got the access to the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. After losing the pressure of competition, he ate, drank, had fun, practiced a little and showed off his skills every day, and he has become a daily routine. The rich woman in the new urban legend of the Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.

After Dai Huabin joined the army, he suffered an unfavorable first battle and lost his master. After taking care of his elder brother's injury for a few days, he returned to the academy and began to practice like crazy. Finally, he had the attitude to risk everything for his own life.

Then... Beibei, who returned to school early because of Mu Laoxian's death, and Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan, who had been busy recuperating from their injuries.

If Huo Yuhao's request is followed, then the two generations of Shrek's Seven Devils will only have brother Dai Huabin left in the academy!
Fan Yu, who was walking on the road, suddenly raised his eyebrows. The Academy's favorite Shrek Seven Monsters were no secret. They could be seen from the preparation of the reserve team every year. Why did Huo Yuhao want to kill the other six people in one fell swoop, but left Dai Huabin behind...

There are other hostages on the list, others are easy to understand, but Teacher Wang Yan... why?

He is just a teacher who studies theory, not even a vice-dean. Although he has indeed made good achievements in his field, as a Shrek teacher, he is by no means the best. Even if Huo Yuhao wants a teacher as a hostage, he can If you want to steal a teacher, you shouldn’t choose Wang Yan!
There are many Shrek teachers who are able to train outstanding students from generation to generation and master the best teaching methods who are much better than Wang Yan. For example, his wife Zhou Yi is one of the best, and he must have missed his wife after traveling for so long. Teacher Zhou also misses herself very much...

Alas, I am really ignorant.

After dismissing Fan Yu, who brought Shrek's various intentions, Huo Yuhao tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers, pondered for a while and then turned to Kong Deming, who had been concentrating on drinking tea, and asked:
"Mr. Kong, you heard Shrek's request just now about sending more students to the Soul Palace to study souls. I have a question that I'm really curious about..."

Kong Deming held the teacup, closed the lid of the teapot, and said calmly: "What's the matter? Just ask."

"Shrek's Poseidon Pavilion... really doesn't have our internal response, right?"

Although judging from the description in the original work, not only the people born in Shrek and the spiritual Shrek people are extremely loyal, but also the spiritual history is spread all over the continent, and even Xu Tianran and Xu Tianzhen are among them.

But...putting aside the suggestions of inviting myself to give lectures and build a branch hall, increasing personnel exchanges is really in line with my own wishes. It is not an ordinary sleeping dragon and phoenix chick who can make such suggestions.

Kong Deming couldn't help but laugh: "What are you thinking? That's the Poseidon Pavilion. There must be people who hope to maintain peace, but how is it possible to take refuge in secret..."

"Are you sure? If you don't do things for us, it doesn't mean you are innocent when dealing with others."

"Just thinking, everyone in Poseidon Pavilion is already at the pinnacle of power, it's impossible..."

As he spoke, Kong Deming's hand holding the tea cup stiffened slightly.

After a while, Kong Deming's confidence weakened a little: "It shouldn't be possible... Just wait, I'll go find someone to ask in the next few days."

The so-called "ask someone to ask", of course, means to ask the Holy Spirit Cult, who has been keeping a low profile since moving constantly - if you have an insider in Shrek, let us be mentally prepared first, so as not to accidentally hurt ourselves in the future. people.

After being reminded by Huo Yuhao, Kong Deming became less confident.

Judging from the information he had learned through various channels before, Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, the two most senior pillars of the Holy Spirit Sect, were in a love triangle with the late former Poseidon Pavilion leader Mu En.

Counting further down, there are Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Wuhun Department, and Fengling, the deputy leader of the Holy Spirit Sect.

When Yan Shaozhe, whose martial soul is a light phoenix, met Feng Ling, whose martial soul was still a dark phoenix, he did not reject him. Instead, he wanted to imitate the legend of Mu En and Long Xiaoyao, the two sacred dragons of light and darkness, and form a phoenix of light and darkness with him. Good couple combination.

At that time, Yan Shaozhe was young, handsome, and suave. He quickly captured Fengling, and their relationship progressed rapidly.

After three months of dating, the evil aura in Fengling suddenly awakened, and the dark phoenix transformed into the evil phoenix. After a battle with Yan Shaozhe, he was let go by Yan Shaozhe, who remembered the couple's kindness for a day and a hundred days.

The reason why the evil aura in Na Fengling's martial soul suddenly revived was because she had a forbidden male-female relationship with Yan Shaozhe. Stimulated by the aura of the bright phoenix, the evil phoenix martial soul quickly awakened. She was shot by Yan Shaozhe. The seal collapsed.

Finally...it's the Blue Silver Saint and the next generation Poseidon Pavilion Master Beibei.

It seemed that three consecutive generations of speakers in the Poseidon Pavilion had an unclear relationship with the Holy Spirit Cult. However, Kong Deming suddenly remembered after being reminded by Huo Yuhao that he had actually ignored the middle half of the generation - the current nominal leader of the Poseidon Pavilion, Xuanzi. !
Through various channels, Kong Deming had already learned that this guy got lost in the Star Forest, almost trapped several seven-ring disciples in the inner courtyard to death at the hands of the 10-year-old soul beast, and was the fourth of the Shrek Seven Monsters who was blown up by the five-ring soul king. , declared that "if you are not as skilled as a human, your death will be in vain", robbed Lin Xi in the soul fighting arena, and hijacked the emperor's auspicious beast in exchange for the water of the Lake of Life.

This old glutton who has been stabbed several times is sandwiched between Mu En and Yan Shaozhe in terms of age, and he and Yan Shaozhe know each other's name and identity as the master of the Poseidon Pavilion. According to tradition, it is very possible that he has a relationship with the Holy Spirit Cult. There is an unknown relationship.

In this way, his behavior of repeatedly weakening the strength of Shrek Academy, trapping students with unlimited potential, and making enemies of all parties in Shrek Academy was perfectly explained.

Thinking of this, Kong Deming couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Could it be that the potential enemy Holy Spirit Sect and the inevitable enemy Shrek Academy have secretly formed an alliance, waiting for Xuanzi to completely control Poseidon Pavilion?It’s hard to say!
It seems that we must pay more attention to the Holy Spirit Sect. Even if they move, we cannot let down our guard!
While Kong Deming was preparing to arrange for someone to go to Western Xinjiang to check the situation with the Holy Spirit Church's senior leaders, Huo Yuhao, who had finished dinner, had already appeared at the humanoid soul guidance device experimental site at the Mingdetang underground base.

After Jing Hongchen's painstaking efforts and continuous improvement, the appearance of this big guy has become decent after refinement. It is only a few more edges and corners and a little more fancy paint before it is a real first-generation mecha.

Although this is the proud work of Hongchen Hall Master, Huo Yuhao came here today not to see his old man, but to capture the long-lost Teacher Xuan, who although he has not graduated yet, has often been short of cards for many years.

Since the sealed milk bottle project was successfully accepted and completed, Xuan Ziwen was asked to take over by the humanoid soul guide project team, which was also at the last moment and in urgent need of high-end manpower.

"The elbow joint still looks a little dull..." Xuan Ziwen, who was holding a notebook under his arm, touched his chin and commented to himself while standing in the corner of the experimental field and facing the towering mecha controlled by the test pilot.

"What are you thinking about, Teacher Xuan? Are you thinking about how to steal your teacher?" Huo Yuhao, who quietly slipped in by swiping the access card, appeared behind Xuan Ziwen like a ghost.

"I'm not going to care about this... Damn!" Xuan Ziwen, who was too absorbed and slow to react, suddenly became furious when he saw Huo Yuhao's face that was almost touching him, and took a few steps back.

"You kid, don't be so elusive next time! I'm only a little short of a ninth-level soul master. Can I steal this thing from him?"

Huo Yuhao said "Humph", then put his hands into his sleeves and sighed with a sad face: "This can't be done."

"what?"

"It's not okay for you to be so arrogant and complacent and lose the most important quality of a soul master, humility."

Xuan Ziwen only felt that the blood vessels on his forehead were beating faintly. Did he need Huo Yuhao to teach him how to be a soul mentor?

"If you don't steal from the master and plagiarize hard, what will I do?"

Facing Huo Yuhao's sighing look, Xuan Ziwen glared at him and said, "What's wrong with you? What does it have to do with needing me to steal from you? Tell me what you mean!"

While the two were chatting, Jing Hongchen, who had been paying close attention to the status of the humanoid soul guide, had already walked over with his hands behind his back.

"Hey, Yuhao is back. A few days ago, Wang Dong robbed the treasure at the auction and lost face. Now he has something good this time, so he asked Meng to raise money and go to the auction together to take revenge. You You can’t find them when you come to Mingde Hall.”

"Also, what are you interested in? You can't tell me, and you want to steal from Xuan Ziwen?"

Jing Hongchen didn't seem very satisfied with his words, but the expression on his face was cheerful.

The Soul Palace is running smoothly beyond expectations, and the humanoid soul guide that I value most is also making good progress. Naturally, people are in high spirits during happy events.

"Aren't I afraid of causing you more trouble? You're already busy enough worrying about this humanoid soul guide. How can you handle one more project like this?"

"Oh?" Jing Hongchen and Xuan Ziwen raised their eyebrows at the same time.

What could be compared with a national key project like the humanoid soul guide?
"Do you think your teacher Xuan can help you solve the difficult project of humanoid soul guide?" Jing Hongchen waved his sleeves and smiled confidently.

Xuan Ziwen had a straight face. He had always felt that he was only one traditional ninth-level soul guide away from being a ninth-level soul master. The theoretical basis was already complete, and he only needed a little experience and resources.

"Of course it's useless to just rely on Teacher Xuan to figure it out on his own, but with your work laying the foundation, Teacher Xuan stands on the shoulders of giants and wants to help me. It's very promising, and this is also a way to help Teacher Xuan advance to the ninth level of soul master." Opportunity."

Huo Yuhao praised Jing Hongchen, who was extremely confident, while Xuan Ziwen was aroused by the term "ninth-level soul master" that had been scratching his head and heart recently.

If we compare the influence, Xuan Ziwen, who made the sealed milk bottle, has more credit than the average ninth-level soul mentor, but after all, he is not a true ninth-level soul mentor. The crucial step Still can't take a step forward.

"Master, Teacher Xuan... please come with me after today's experiment is over. I really have a win-win idea for both me and Teacher Xuan."

It was rare for Huo Yuhao to make a request in person. Jing Hongchen did not go to the researchers to eat or drink after the humanoid soul guide experimental subject ended, but directly led Huo Yuhao and Xuan Ziwen to the conference room.

"Tell me, Yuhao, what do you want Xuan Ziwen to do for you? Do you still need to steal from me?"

Jing Hongchen and Xuan Ziwen sat side by side, posing as a joint interrogator against Huo Yuhao.

"Two, please take a look."

Huo Yuhao waved his wrist, and the cold ice-blue metal ore that had been prepared was immediately taken out of the storage soul guide, and rolled all over the conference table.

Although the ice crystals associated with the Wanzai Xuan Ice Cave that emerge once in a million years are not as pure as the Wanzai Xuan Ice Marrow, the ice element contained in them is also far beyond what ordinary people can imagine, and is even more pure than the Wanzai Xuan Ice Marrow. The energy density of the second-hand Beggar's Edition Xuanbing Bed from Lin Xi that Huo Yuhao received earlier was even higher.

"This is... Xuan Bing Marrow? No, Xuan Bing Marrow is ready to eat after opening the lid. It does not have such obvious metallic properties." Jing Hongchen recognized the difference between these mysterious metals and Xuan Bing Marrow in front of him at a glance. Even as a titled Douluo, he They all felt the terrifying chill escaping from these metals, and their bodies reflexively used their soul power to maintain body temperature balance.

Teacher Xuan, who only had Contra cultivation, was much more embarrassed. The soul power used to protect his body had been released visibly to the naked eye. This was not enough, so he took out a coat from the storage ring and put it on.

The Ice Divine Crystal is the product of the Wanzai Xuan Ice Cave, which is extremely cold knowledge in the human world, so Huo Yuhao immediately dug a lot of it from the Earth Dragon Gate based on the information from the Western Xinjiang that "the Earth Dragon Gate is suspected of containing secret treasures" The story of a cave of ice crystals was told to the two of them.

"I asked the Snow Emperor to look at this object in the far north. It's called the Ice Divine Crystal. Not only does it have extremely hard metallic properties, it also has an extremely exaggerated increase in ice attribute soul power after building a soul power circuit. .”

“Mr. The armor of one’s own cultivation.”

As the predecessor of the battle armor that would be as famous as the mecha ten thousand years later, the design of the Ice War God Armor was finally put on the agenda after Huo Yuhao returned from the Earth Dragon Gate with a full load.

As for this arduous task, Huo Yuhao's first thought was naturally to ask Teacher Xuan. After all, the Ice War God Armor in the original work was originally a joint work between him and Huo Gua, and Xuan Ziwen's brainstorming was used to design it, and the seven-ring Huo Gua was hands-on. Mainly carving.

The Ice War God Armor was called an unreplicable super humanoid soul tool by Xuan Ziwen in the original work. A total of two sets were designed. The reduced version was given to Nan Qiuqiu as a thank you gift, and the full health version was given to Huo Gua For personal use - in fact, no one but him can use it.

The fully equipped version held by Huo Gua not only uses the top ice crystal with ice spirit that must be manipulated by the ultimate ice soul master, but also uses the artifact-level ghost carving sword and the sigh of the ice and snow goddess during carving. , Chenlu Dao.

At the same time, the full-blooded version is also equipped with a unique mental control system. Soul masters who do not have strong enough mental power and endurance will go crazy once they activate immortality - such a heaven-defying system has never been successfully researched by Mingdetang. After Xuan Ziwen changed his job, he designed it independently in two years.

The Ice War God Armor used by Qihuan Huo Gua can exert at least the power of a top-level ninth-level soul guide, and when its level is upgraded, it can fully reach the level of a tenth-level soul guide.

Although it stands to reason that this is the joint effort of Teacher Xuan and Huo Gua, Huo Yuhao still sees Teacher Xuan as the absolute main force. After all, Huo Gua's cultivation level was only at the peak of the seventh ring when the Ice War God Armor first appeared, and the development process has been complicated. As long as two years...

Now that Teacher Xuan has the material and human resources of Mingdetang to utilize, the situation is much better than when he switched to Tangmen and had to go it alone with a Huo Gua accessory that had been traveling all year round. Huo Gua, who had not reached the eighth ring, would not be able to perform. More than the value of a full-time ninth-level soul engineer.

Even with a lot of things to do, he was still able to complete the design of the top-level ninth-level soul guide in two years. Now it seems that Teacher Xuan's talent is even more amazing?
Moreover, the humanoid soul guide Unit Zero has not been stolen. Teacher Xuan has sufficient original data to draw from.

"Tsk, it's a small human-shaped soul guide that can be used as armor... It's only been a few months since I was transferred to work with the hall master to finish the human-shaped soul guide. You guys can really give me problems."

"Is it the Ice Divine Crystal? It's an ice-attributed, ultimate, magical, crystal. The name is quite appropriate."

Xuan Ziwen wrapped his palm with soul power, picked up a piece of ice crystal and looked at it, and couldn't help but admire its excellent properties as a material.

"And this is not a fixed soul guidance shell. Even if I design a level nine soul guidance device, you may not be able to use it within a few years."

Huo Yuhao said seriously: "The Snow Emperor has appraised it. If I can use it to build a soul power circuit, that is to make a complete set of armor... it will allow me to explode into ninth-level combat power in a short period of time without any sequelae at the high-level seventh-level armor." .”

"Nine rings?!" Jing Hongchen couldn't help but lost his voice, and Xuan Ziwen also dropped the ice crystal in his hand with a "thump".

With the combination of Twin Martial Souls + Ultimate Martial Souls, Jing Hongchen estimated that even if Huo Yuhao was only level 91, his combat power would far exceed that of an ordinary Super Douluo. Only Extreme Douluo could guarantee his absolute suppression.

In other words... if the armor made with this ice crystal can achieve the effect expected by the Snow Emperor, Huo Yuhao at the seventh ring can burst out in a short time with a combat power that is approximately equal to the average level of Super Douluo at level 96, seventh or eighth?
"Yes, it's just that such an explosive effect cannot last for long." Huo Yuhao nodded.

According to the original work, Qihuan Huo Gua "with this set of armor, he has the confidence to challenge any ninth-level soul master in the Sun and Moon Empire" - this range is quite large, a parallel ninth-level soul master is also a normal level 91 , the middle level is about the same as Super Douluo, Kong Deming... that is the extreme level.

But no matter what, Huo Gua's combat prowess in naked armor at the eighth ring cannot be called "challenging any ninth-level soul master". The natural chasm of the ninth ring is too important.

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao lifted up two pieces of ice crystals that seemed to have no obvious difference, and injected the ultimate ice soul power into them.

The blue ice threads inside the activated Ice Extreme Divine Crystal seemed to come to life, and their brightness also increased a little, making Xuan Ziwen suddenly shiver.

"The one on my left is the common form of the Ice Divine Crystal, and the one on my right is the Ice Divine Crystal that has given birth to the Ice Spirit after years of baptism; it can be understood as having the breath of life itself, and can exert more magical effects. The power, but also because of this life characteristic, it must be the ultimate ice soul power to trigger resonance."

Xuan Ziwen looked at the ice crystal that contained the ice spirit that seemed to be roaring with joy. His face didn't show much surprise, but he said with a complicated expression:

"This is the first time I have seen your boy truly display the characteristics of ultimate ice in front of me. Although it only has five rings, it is more powerful than I expected."

"To increase the combat power to nearly two levels, the most important thing is to cross the threshold of the ninth level... Indeed, although it does not require a titled Douluo to use it, it would be unreasonable if it was not called a ninth-level soul guide, and it is absolutely It is the top level nine soul guide. A normal soul master does not need to maintain the combat effectiveness improvement effect for a long time. It is enough to survive one or two battles."

"You really think highly of me with such a high goal. Even I don't have the confidence to directly challenge such a difficult top-level soul tool."

Huo Yuhao nodded, injected some soul power again, and handed the two fully activated Ice Divine Crystals to Jing Hongchen and Xuan Ziwen.

Being able to challenge a naked Titled Douluo with a seven-ring cultivation level is a typical feature of the multi-character battle armor ten thousand years later. Teacher Xuan, who designed the prototype of the multi-character battle armor on his own in two years with nothing but nothing, is undoubtedly a genius among geniuses.

Huo Yuhao will definitely do his best to help Teacher Xuan create such a super humanoid soul guide as soon as possible, so that Teacher Xuan can obtain the title of ninth-level soul guide before following Huo Guao to change jobs in the original work, and his attainments are absolutely Far beyond the average level of a ninth-level soul engineer.

Xuan Ziwen sighed softly and said: "Although I want to help you, don't underestimate the difficulty of miniaturizing the humanoid soul guide. The research and development acceleration period of this thing in its current form alone has to be counted as hundreds of years. It is still in The Hall Master, the youngest ninth-level soul master, has just passed the last threshold, so if I am not careful, it may take me ten or eight years of hard work."

"Furthermore, the hardness of this ice crystal...is simply not something that ordinary carving knives can handle. At least it would require a top-ranked carving knife to carve a little bit of it."

Huo Yuhao smiled and encouraged: "You can grow under pressure. I believe in you, Teacher Xuan."

"Stop flattering me. I don't believe it myself. You said that the Ice Divine Crystal contains ice spirits. Once metals with the concept of life are involved, it is twice as difficult to give full play to their characteristics."

With a serious nod, Huo Yuhao pushed a pile of ice crystals in front of Jing Hongchen.

"So I didn't try to max out the difficulty for you from the beginning, Teacher Xuan. My set of miniaturized humanoid soul guide armor, which can only be used by Ultimate Ice, can push back the progress a little. You can use it first. Practice with the less difficult normal version.”

"Most of the Ice Divine Crystals do not have ice spirits, but they still have astonishingly excellent attributes; so... Anyway, there are enough materials. You can try to make a set of armor with Senior Meng as the target first, and wait until the production is completed. Once you have experience with one set, how about you arrange it for me?"

"Even the ordinary version is definitely up to the threshold of the ninth-level soul guide! Hey... I also think about it for you. I will try the lower difficulty version first, and then I will apply for the title of the ninth-level soul guide for you. .”

The corner of Xuan Ziwen's mouth couldn't help but twitch: "Do I still have to thank you for your cooperation? You're not done yet. If you don't do it once, you have to pinch me twice?"

Although Xuan Ziwen himself was entrusted with the task, he was in a superposition state of being both excited and afraid that the difficulty would exceed his ability, but his immediate boss Jing Hongchen happily leaned out and hugged the piled-up ordinary version of the Ice Extreme Divine Crystal. In arms.

"Xuan Ziwen, starting from tomorrow, you will be the deputy chief engineer of the humanoid soul guide project! Let's go with Yu Hao to explain the reasons for doing this."

"I'm old. It's been a lot of effort to develop this giant humanoid soul guide. The task of miniaturizing it to fit the human body has to be left to young people like you. All the documents on the humanoid soul guide project, you Everyone is eligible to transfer.”

"Four...three years! In the next Senior Soul Master Elite Competition, as long as the confidentiality regulations are not violated, I hope to see the Ice Divine Crystal Armor envisioned by Yu Hao appear on the field. Can it be done?"

"Why don't you shoot me in the head now?" Xuan Ziwen said directly to Jing Hongchen, who looked extremely excited, and collapsed on the chair.

"Huo Yuhao, you are cruel, if I fail to rate you as a ninth-level soul master before the next competition, you will..."

"I will support you in your old age according to the specifications of Hongchen Hall Master! If you are so old and you still don't find a partner, you will probably be in trouble in the future. Sister Juzi and the others are busy with their careers in other places, so they definitely can't count on..."

"Go away! Send me the samples tomorrow, call Meng Hongchen for a physical examination, and ask the hall master to find me a carving knife. I guess it needs to be among the top twenty in order to process it more smoothly. "

Ranked twenty?

Huo Yuhao muttered to himself that the expected ranking after the evolution of the Soul-Eating Carving Sword seems to be only around thirty...

But the Sun and Moon Empire is, after all, the home of soul masters. There are at least one order of magnitude more senior soul masters above level seven than the Three Kingdoms and one city combined. It should be no problem to find a good sword... right?

Huo Yuhao has no intention of studying the Doukai thing on his own. Not only is he relatively unskilled in this technical direction, but he also has too many things to be busy with now. Moreover, Teacher Xuan is a genius soul master proven by history to be consistent with his attributes. Now there is Can we look forward to the resource support from Hongchen Hall Master in the next year and a half?Even without the help of Seven Ring Huo Gua's magical weapon, two and a half years are over!

Huo Yuhao, who had worked together with Jing Hongchen to squeeze Xuan Ziwen, was still thinking about when Doukai Unit [-] would arrive, but at the entrance of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, he met someone squatting near the door with a skewer of octopus balls. Fish master.

"You're really busy. What's taking you so long? I've almost bought out this meatball shop."

Rachel Lin, who was biting an octopus ball, narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him.

"You...have you finished writing the market research report that was entrusted to you? This is unscientific."

"Hmph, I seem to be such a diligent person. Will I rush to complete the task as soon as it is assigned before facing the risk of overdue?"

"It doesn't look like it to me. Even if you finish writing it, you will put it off until the last day."

"This time it's really serious. There's a letter I need you to read."

Lin Rachel swallowed the pill and took out a letter with a leaf on the envelope from her pocket.

"Letter to me? Delivered by you? Could it be from Di Tian?"

"Wrong, it was written by King Chi."

　In the middle of writing, WINDOWS suddenly updated and wiped out the saved manuscript. I have only finished rewriting it now.
