Shrek Strips Huo Yuhao of His Comparison Eligibility?

Pfft!

Tang San spat out a mouthful of blood. Never had he felt so forsaken by heaven.

In his previous life, he had been taken in as a foundling, but at least he had managed to secretly learn the Tang Sect Techniques. Even after he was discovered, heaven had given him another chance at life.

But in this life, it was as though heaven itself had turned against him, relentlessly targeting him.

The Heavenly Screen plainly did not want him to have an easy time. This was outright malicious.

"Kill... kill... I'll kill every last one of you!"

"Then there won't be so many acts of heaven aimed at me!"

"You can all... die!"

Huo Yuhao's eyes turned savage. Driven mad by killing intent, he pushed his aura to its limit, and six Soul Rings blazed with blinding light.

In the sky, the enormous black hand descended without a moment's hesitation.

Whoosh—bang!

Outmatched utterly in spiritual power, Soul Power, and strength, Tang San and Xiao Wu were also trapped by Psychic Parasitism and locked onto by Spiritual Detection. They could not move an inch.

They had no power to resist. The enormous Gray Palm slammed into them in an instant.

"Aah!"

The two were smashed into the ground and coughed up blood, but neither died.

One possessed the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone and its vast life force, and was holding on through the extraordinary will of someone who had lived two lives.

The other appeared to be only twelve, but was in truth a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form. Her life force was no weaker than Tang San's.

Inside and outside the Heavenly Screen.

Tang Wulin and everyone else witnessed the brutal scene with their own eyes.

Tang San, the first Sea God, and Xiao Wu could not even fight back against Huo Yuhao, the Second-Generation Child of Destiny.

It was a crushing mismatch: they could not match his spiritual power, and had even less hope of matching his Soul Power. Despair settled over everyone.

Especially once Huo Yuhao stopped pretending. The aura of an Evil Soul Master and the power of an evil Soul Master reached across three eras and hung over every heart.

For a moment, the people of the Douluo I Era could not grasp the terror of evil Soul Masters. Spirit Hall and the Angel Temple had protected them well.

Evil Soul Masters were dealt with before they had a chance to grow. Those at risk of becoming evil Soul Masters were sent to Slaughter City before the change could take hold.

But the Douluo II Era was one in which ordinary people were oppressed to the limit and formidable enemies kept springing up. When oppression and despair caused ordinary people to awaken their Martial Souls on their own, ninety-nine percent fell to evil and became evil Soul Masters.

There were the vile methods of Evil Soul Masters, and the shadow of the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters launching a terror attack whenever they pleased.

By the Douluo III Era, the Holy Spirit Cult had damn near taken over half the land. Fear of Evil Soul Masters had reached its peak.

"I think little of Tang San. Every time he loses a fight, he reports it to the Heavenly Screen. But Huo Yuhao is an Evil Soul Master, a figurehead for evil Soul Masters. I'd rather support Tang San!"

"Get up, Tang San! Don't die! If you die, how is Tang Wulin supposed to fight Huo Yuhao alone?"

"Tang San is one of us from the Douluo I Era. Sure, he's a terrible person, and sure, he'll destroy Spirit Hall in the future, costing us its protection and our chance to awaken our Martial Souls. And sure... forget it, I can't keep making excuses. Tang San staying alive does us no good at all. Huo Yuhao is from the Douluo II Era, so they're the ones who'll suffer if an evil Soul Master grows powerful. Lord Sea God, please go to your death!"

[Everyone from the Douluo II Era: How noble of you. How impressive. You say what you like, and we suffer for it. Screw you!]

The people of the Douluo I Era had abandoned the future Sea God Tang San completely. But some still wanted him to live.

Flender, the headmaster of Shrek Academy, watched the Heavenly Screen anxiously.

Tang San was the future Sea God, the foundation that would sustain Shrek's legacy for twenty thousand years. If Tang San died, how could Shrek last that long?

Flender looked up at the Heavenly Screen showing Huo Yuhao in the Douluo II Era. He saw the people of that era wailing because Huo Yuhao had become an Evil Soul Master.

His gaze stopped on the Seven Monsters Comparison. When he saw that the faction being compared was Shrek, inspiration struck.

[Douluo I (Shrek Academy founder and first headmaster) Flender: I, Flender, founder and first headmaster of Shrek Academy, demand that Shrek Academy of the Douluo II Era immediately strip Huo Yuhao of his title as one of the Shrek Seven Devils and revoke his comparison eligibility!]

Flender could think of no other way to save Tang San.

Was this not the Heavenly Screen's comparison of the Shrek Seven Devils?

If he ordered Shrek Academy in the Douluo II Era to strip Huo Yuhao of his status as one of the Seven Devils, how could Huo Yuhao take part in the comparison?

He would be thrown straight out of the Comparison Space.

Douluo II Era

Shrek Academy, a Sea God Pavilion Meeting in the inner court.

"Teacher, are we really going to do this?"

"Won't that make Huo Yuhao our mortal enemy?"

"We might turn Shrek Academy into his enemy from now on!"

Yan Shaozhe's face had gone pale after hearing what the Sea God Pavilion Meeting had decided.

Xuan Zi could not sit still either.

"Whatever else happens, Sea God Tang San may be one of the First Generation from ten thousand years ago, but Huo Yuhao is one of the Seven Devils of our era. He's Shrek Academy's hope of producing a god!"

Seated at the head of the Sea God Pavilion, Mu En's eyes turned cold as he rebuked Xuan Zi.

"What choice do we have? If your appetite hadn't made you miss the best chance to bring Huo Yuhao back, even the Body Sect, which had little to do with him, wouldn't have found him before you. In the end, the Holy Spirit Cult took him away. How can we allow the feud between Huo Yuhao and Tang San to deepen?"

As he finished speaking, a calculating glint flashed through Mu En's eyes.

"Now that Huo Yuhao has become an Evil Soul Master and the Holy Spirit Cult's Holy Son, he has nothing of value to offer Shrek Academy!"

"So we'll take back his Seven Devils title and revoke his comparison eligibility. We'll force him to return!"

Yan Shaozhe felt uneasy at Mu En's words.

"Teacher, what if Huo Yuhao really doesn't come back?"

Mu En slammed the table and rose.

"Impossible! Without Shrek's training, Huo Yuhao could never ascend to the Divine Realm and become a god as the Heavenly Screen showed he would!"

"Besides, the second beam of golden light—the second person in the comparison—has already descended on Shrek Academy. The Heavenly Screen has confirmed it!"

Inside the Comparison Space, just as Huo Yuhao's great hand was about to fall.

[(Peerless Era) Shrek Academy, Sea God Pavilion Master Mu En: Heavenly Screen, we are stripping Huo Yuhao of his title as one of the Shrek Seven Devils and revoking his comparison eligibility!]

Whoosh!

Dazzling golden light burst from the Heavenly Screen. Inside the Comparison Space, Huo Yuhao's attack was halted.

Shrek Academy's move left everyone stunned.

[Douluo II Era, Peerless Era: Shrek Academy's highest decision-making body, the Sea God Pavilion, has revoked Huo Yuhao's Seven Devils title. His comparison eligibility has been revoked.]

[Checking whether his comparison eligibility has indeed been removed...]

At the news that his eligibility had been revoked, everyone across the Three Realms was dumbstruck.

[Mu En: Huo Yuhao, return to Shrek Academy at once. If you resume the comparison properly, Shrek Academy will reconsider restoring your Seven Devils title and allowing you to continue!]

"So close. I was so close. Why, when I was only one step away...?"

"Heh... hahahaha... One step into Shrek, and it ruins your whole life!"

"The Seven Devils title stopped my killing hand; the Pavilion's wild decree locked away my chance!"

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Huo Yuhao jerked his head up. His eyes turned blood-red in an instant, and a terrifying aura erupted from him.

"Tang San, you stole my mother's soul! That debt can never be forgiven!"

"From this day on, Shrek is my greatest enemy!"

"I swear I'll destroy Shrek in this lifetime!"
