Douluo's Peerless: Became Huo Yuhao's Golden Finger!

Good heavens!

Was this directed at him?

"Little Yuhao, such a great chance to advertise—go for it!" Zhuge Lan urged.

"Ah?" Huo Yuhao said worriedly, "But this is the freshman assessment..."

"What are you afraid of? Your backer is a demigod! Your teacher is Mu En! Your senior brother is Yan Shaozhe! Even Shrek's higher-ups are dying to learn Tai Chi Fist!"

"Uh... then I'll give it a try."

Huo Yuhao cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention.

He pointed at Yan Shaozhe on the platform.

"Our eldest senior brother is an elder of the Sacred Fire Cult. Anyone interested in joining is welcome to sign up."

His words stirred up a thousand waves!

Amid the successive cries of shock, Yan Shaozhe became the center of attention.

Dean Yan, aren't you going to say something?

Yan Shaozhe: "..."

He helplessly glanced at his little junior brother. Was he really poaching people this openly?

Yet Mu En had already given instructions.

In principle, they were not to promote the Sacred Fire Cult's existence. But if Huo Yuhao recruited people on his own, they were not to stop him.

Therefore—

"I am indeed an honorary elder of the Sacred Fire Cult," Yan Shaozhe announced. "Let me remind everyone that the Sacred Fire Cult has extremely high requirements for aptitude. Only one person from Freshman Class One passed the test. Those who wish to apply should weigh yourselves carefully."

His original intention had been to reduce his little junior brother's workload and leave him more time to cultivate.

But where was this?

Shrek Academy!

The number one academy on the continent, one that specialized in accepting monsters. Which student admitted here wasn't a heaven-blessed prodigy?

The more Yan Shaozhe said that, the more they wanted to give it a try.

Changed the fate of the Sacred Fire Cult, +5000 Luck Value!

Huo Yuhao smiled and stepped forward, inviting the Lan Susu sisters—

"You two, let's go down and talk first. This Soul Dueling Platform still needs to be used for the freshman assessment."

"Okay!" ×2

The five of them left the arena together through Huo Yuhao's passage, while Huang Chu Tian was dragged away by a healing Soul Master.

Mu Jin?

She had already stormed off in anger.

Useless trash!

It was one thing to lose a three-against-one fight, but they had even poached her prized talents!

And with Dean Yan backing them up, she didn't dare say anything in rebuttal.

She was furious!

In the waiting area.

The moment Huo Yuhao came down, the students surrounded him so tightly that not even water could pass through.

The students from Freshman Class One were the exception. They stood with their arms folded, watching the show.

Did they really think the Sacred Fire Cult was that easy to enter?

They had once been just as arrogantly confident, until ninety-nine percent of them had been screened out. Only then had they realized that even being a genius was merely the "threshold."

—The threshold for coming into contact with the Sacred Fire Cult.

"Whoosh—"

Yan Shaozhe flashed over and stood protectively in front of Huo Yuhao.

"Eldest Senior Brother, you're here." Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief.

There were too many people.

Just now, he had seen with Mental Power that thirty percent of the hands groping him belonged to men!

Who wouldn't panic at that?

"Go back and continue the freshman assessment first!" Yan Shaozhe said sternly. "Only the teams that place in the top three of their freshman assessment classes are qualified to register for the Sacred Fire Cult's entry examination!"

As soon as he said this—

Many people who had seen the gap between themselves and others and wanted to defy fate let out disappointed sighs.

But no one dared to argue with Yan Shaozhe, and they obediently dispersed.

"Thank you for stepping in, Senior Brother." Huo Yuhao said cheerfully. "I've mastered the second stage of the Yi Jin Jing. Senior Brother can find some free time to come learn it soon."

Oh?

Yan Shaozhe immediately smiled.

"Then go ahead and get busy, Junior Brother. I'll come find you at Teacher's place later."

"Sure!"

He watched Yan Shaozhe leave.

Huo Yuhao led the four of them a little to the side and used Mental Power to set up a barrier.

"You two, if you want to join the Sacred Fire Cult, you must master at least one of the Yi Jin Jing and Tai Chi Fist. They are, respectively—"

He briefly explained the differences between the two.

"Which one do you want to be tested on?"

Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo looked at each other, activating the tacit understanding of twins as they rapidly exchanged glances in the briefest instant.

As the elder sister, Lan Susu said, "Although the Yi Jin Jing is tempting, Tai Chi Fist feels more suitable for us. So we choose Tai Chi Fist."

"Alright." Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao. "Each of you teach one of them. I'll watch from the side and fill in any gaps."

The two nodded in agreement.

Teaching others was also a form of consolidation, after all.

The Lan sisters had fresh minds and were highly receptive to Tai Chi Intent.

Furthermore, their Martial Souls were hair, and they had previously followed the path of using softness to overcome hardness.

They had some experience in that regard.

Before the next freshman assessment began, they had already grasped a faint sense of it.

When they put it into actual combat, their hair nets specifically tangled around their opponents' points of force. Compared to their previous full-coverage approach, it consumed less while providing better control.

The sisters were thrilled.

Just a little insight had improved them so much. They did not dare imagine what it would be like if they truly mastered it.

The Sacred Fire Cult was awesome!!!

Duel Against Ning Tian's Trio, Wang Dong Swings Her Hoe Again!

Huang Chu Tian, as their team captain, had witnessed the changes in the Lan sisters and could not help feeling envious.

He could not help asking, "Can I ask whether I can join the Sacred Fire Cult too?"

The Lan sisters exchanged a glance.

"We're still in the assessment period ourselves, so it wouldn't be appropriate for us to ask," Lan Luoluo said tactfully. "But you used to be in Class One too. Maybe you could go directly to Yuhao?"

Huang Chu Tian stayed silent with a gloomy expression.

Not long ago, he had taken the lead in betraying Huo Yuhao. Those mocking words were still vivid in his mind.

Besides, Dean Yan had already spoken. Did he dare openly defy him?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

His prized possession was about to be taken away, yet there was nothing he could do.

So infuriating!!!

Huo Yuhao had no idea that someone had begun resenting him again.

The three girls they faced in the second match were rather formidable!

"I know you people—Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao!" the short-haired redhead declared loudly. "Wu Feng from Freshman Class Nine, a Level 25 Assault System Battle Soul Grandmaster. Do you still dare send just one person this time? You'll definitely lose!"

The girl with long light-green hair said softly, "Nanmen Yun'er, a Level 24 Agility Attack System Battle Soul Grandmaster."

The final blonde girl said calmly, "Ning Tian, a Level 31 Auxiliary System Artifact Soul Master."

Wang Dong suddenly understood.

So she was the three-ring Soul Elder from the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, capable of increasing someone's attributes by forty percent.

No wonder Wu Feng was so arrogant.

"This time will be rather troublesome. Do you still insist on fighting three against one?" Huo Yuhao asked. "I'll provide Spiritual Detection Sharing. The rest is up to you."

He summoned his Spirit Eyes Martial Soul, activated his First Soul Skill, and then retreated to the edge of the arena.

Xiao Xiao: Wang Dong, they have the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda assisting them. Shall we take one each?

The sudden mental transmission made Wang Dong pause.

When had Xiao Xiao learned that?

Xiao Xiao: It's just a little trick. Have the class monitor teach you later. Focus on the match first—which one do you want?

Before Wang Dong could choose.

Across from them, Ning Tian had already summoned her Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, her first and third Soul Rings lighting up.

"Seven treasures turn, revealing glazed tile; the seven treasures are named: first, Strength; third, Soul!"

Four streams of light entered Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er respectively. Both activated their Martial Soul Possessions and attacked Wang Dong from both sides.

They went all out from the very start!

"Heh! They thought I was an easy target?" Wang Dong laughed angrily. "Xiao Xiao, don't interfere. I can handle this!"

Xiao Xiao was a little conflicted and asked Huo Yuhao through spiritual transmission.

Huo Yuhao: Trust him.

Xiao Xiao: Alright, then I'll provide some support.

Xiao Xiao summoned her martial soul, the Nine Phoenix Coming Ceremony Flute, and her first Soul Ring lit up.

First Soul Skill—Slow!

Layer after layer of invisible sound waves spread outward, slowing Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er's movements slightly.

"Seven treasures turn, revealing glazed tile; the seven treasures are named: second, Release!"

Ning Tian's second Soul Ring shot out two streams of light. After entering the two girls' bodies, they increased the speed that had been reduced by Slow once more.

"Huh?" Wang Dong said in surprise. "Isn't the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul supposed to have fixed enhancement effects for its first seven Soul Skills?"

No one answered her. They had already reached her.

Wang Dong summoned the Light Goddess Butterfly and soared into the air, evading the two girls' pincer attack. Golden patterns spread across her wings, firing clusters of small light orbs in rapid succession toward Ning Tian behind them.

Second Soul Skill—Butterfly God's Light!

As an Agility Attack System soul master, Nanmen Yun'er quickly rushed back to defend. She activated her First Soul Skill—Jadeite Blade—to split apart the first wave of light orbs, then wrapped an arm around Ning Tian and dodged aside.

Wu Feng, meanwhile, leaped high into the air as two Soul Rings lit up.
