Douluo World

Di Tian felt a chill in his heart. A super divine tool...

He had heard of such things. To put it bluntly, for a god—even for a God King at the pinnacle of divinity—a super divine tool was an existence more precious than life itself.

An unknown god had bestowed the power of such a supreme treasure upon the Auspicious Beast. Was this an act of kindness or malice?

Was the intention to fatten the sheep before the slaughter?

The Silver-Haired Woman looked up at the sky. "If not for the evolution of the Auspicious Beast, my awakening would have required at least another ten thousand years. It is fortunate that this power of auspiciousness is sufficiently dense; it has helped me recover a portion of my strength, allowing me to briefly exert god-level power."

"Although I do not know if this entity is friend or foe, I believe that god, at the very least, harbors no malice toward us soul beasts."

"Master, this..."

The Silver-Haired Woman gave a bitter laugh. "If he truly wished to strike at you, even I would be unable to stop him. Furthermore, I am certain that he has already discovered me, yet he did not make a move."

Di Tian was startled. Had the Master already been discovered?

The Silver-Haired Woman turned around, her purple, crystal-like eyes flashing with sharp divine light. "Let us set that aside for now. Di Tian, take advantage of this period while the power of destiny causes the strength of Star Dou to surge, and continue to accumulate power! Prepare for the final war against humanity!"

"No matter the cost, we will surely reclaim the world that belongs to us!"

"Yes!"

Time passed like a white horse leaping across a crevice; a blink of an eye, and over a month had gone by.

Thanks to the "discerning eye" of Grand Elder Xuan Zi, Zhang Lexuan's request for Huo Yuhao to be promoted directly to the inner courtyard was shelved. It was demanded that he earn the status of a core disciple by winning the freshman tournament.

Mu En had no objections to this, likewise stating that he needed to further observe Huo Yuhao's character before making a final decision.

However, it was not without its benefits; at the very least, the most expensive cafeteria in the outer courtyard was now open to Huo Yuhao free of charge.

Xiao Huo naturally did not stand on ceremony, eating as much as he could every single time.

He didn't eat much in one sitting, really—only about half of the cafeteria's daily supply...

The girls who had previously felt a bit of affection for Huo Yuhao began to keep their distance from this guy who could eat more than a pig.

It is worth mentioning that, thanks to Zhou Yi, the number of students in Freshman Class One had plummeted to just over seventy in the span of a single month.

Any freshman who dared to talk back to Zhou Yi or defy her was expelled without exception!

Nearly half of those twenty-odd students were ruthlessly expelled for trumped-up reasons! This included a certain little princess of the Clear Sky Sect who was disguised as a boy.

The little princess had never suffered such indignity! Without a word, she called for backup.

The background of this famous Shrek instructor was merely Fan Yu, an eighth-rank soul engineer, whereas the background of this Clear Sky Sect little princess could be said to be the strongest in the history of the entire Douluo Continent.

Although the two sect masters were temporarily unable to move after being severely injured by someone, the fundamental influence of the Clear Sky Sect remained. When the matter escalated, the upper echelons of Shrek Academy, under pressure, stepped in to severely reprimand Zhou Yi and demote her to deputy homeroom teacher, replacing her with Wang Yan as the homeroom teacher of Class One. Only then did she restrain herself slightly.

However, rumors circulated that some of the students expelled by Zhou Yi had emptied their family fortunes to put a bounty on her limbs... though assassinating an outer courtyard teacher within Shrek City was quite difficult, not to mention that Shrek Academy was notoriously protective of its own.

Lan Xuanyu and Wang Dong requested multiple times to transfer to Class Ten, where Huo Yuhao was, but they were blocked by their homeroom teacher, Zhang Lexuan. For a time, the two, each harboring their own secret agendas, were helpless and could only wait for the class reshuffling after the freshman tournament ended in three months.

Perhaps also considering that Huo Yuhao was still young and it might have a bad influence, Ma Xiaotao came to see him much less frequently. Only on Wednesday and Friday nights did they have their private time in the secret chamber.

With Huo Yuhao's help, Ma Xiaotao's control over the evil fire became increasingly proficient. Even when Huo Yuhao no longer used Ultimate Water to assist her, she could effectively suppress the evil fire and prevent it from eroding her mind.

The only price was that... the dark attribute within her original Evil Fire Phoenix martial soul was becoming increasingly dense.

Of course, Shrek Academy's standards for evil soul masters were quite flexible; they certainly would not classify Ma Xiaotao as an evil soul master.

They dared to hunt down Zhang Peng for possessing the Dark Scorpion Tiger martial soul, labeling him an evil soul master at every turn, yet they dared not utter a single word against Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao, who possessed the Dark Sacred Dragon martial soul.

You see, in this world, success is all about background and strength.

Huo Yuhao paid no mind to these things for the moment. Today was the weekend, and he sat on his bed, holding a silver-blue box in his hands.

This was an item left behind by Baili Du, a device commonly used during their Great God Circle era: the Douluo World.

What little Huo Yuhao held in his hand was the terminal for the Douluo World system.

Within it, Baili Du had collected data on powerhouses from various eras of the Douluo Continent and other planes, leaving it for little Huo Yuhao to use for combat training and reference.

Naturally, there was no need to fear death within the Douluo World, and the experience gained after combat would be transferred to the user. It could be considered a massive cheat code provided by Baili Du for Xiao Huo.

After tapping a few times on the screen projected by the terminal, Huo Yuhao lay down on his bed, letting his consciousness sink into the Douluo World.

[Direct connection!]

Every time he entered this Douluo World, Huo Yuhao marveled at the unfathomable nature of Baili Du.

Looking around, this was a world full of vitality; everything was exactly the same as in reality.

He was currently in a lush forest surrounded by trees.

Looking up, wisps of sunlight pierced through the dense branches, adding a touch of life to the forest.

Although he knew this was a virtual space, he could not discern the pixel density at all. Even a random small pebble by his feet was extremely refined; the details could be described as overwhelmingly clear.

However... Huo Yuhao sighed, extended his fingers, crossed his index and middle fingers, and swiped downward.

A familiar object appeared: a data frame.

[Comprehensive Evaluation: Rookie, go practice some more.]

Although he did not know what Baili Du relied on to define those strength and spiritual power values, he figured it was not without basis.

But this evaluation was really something else...

Huo Yuhao clenched his fists. "Hoo... no matter what, I have to clear the second stage today!"

Since he was going to use a cheat, it naturally had to be done in a reasonable way; he couldn't just shove every good item into Xiao Huo's hands and call it a day.

To wear the crown, one must bear its weight. If one wants to obtain a cheat or a treasure, one naturally needs a vessel capable of bearing it. Even if it were another version of himself, Baili Du knew better than anyone the consequences of an unstable foundation.
