Xu Xingyu, who had some doubts about Huo Yuhao's behavior, went to the hotel arranged for them by Spirit Contract Pagoda Sun Moon Empire after finishing the registration.

Although Spirit Contract Pagoda did not participate in the previous tournament, due to Spirit Contract Pagoda current prestigious status, the hotel rooms they stayed in were just as luxurious as those of the top four teams in the previous tournament.

The entire lobby was lavishly decorated and brightly lit, showcasing the wealth and power of the Sun Moon Empire.

In Xu Xingyu's memory, the only place that could compare to it was the Foolish and Rich Hotel where she stayed when she was in the Five Elements Plane.

However, in addition to showcasing wealth, the facilities there also included cultivation rooms specially prepared for practitioners.

The place is at most comfortable, luxurious, and opulent. Perhaps that's why there's no dedicated training room.

The Sun Moon Empire prepared seven double rooms for the participating team members and one single room for the supervising teacher.

However, the teacher in charge of supervising this group is Gu Yuena, and Gu Yuena is very unhappy that she is not in the same room as Xu Xingyu.

So, disregarding Xu Xingyu's wishes, she forcibly dragged Xu Xingyu into her room, claiming that her room was quite large.

It seems that Xu Xingyu will be staying in Gu Yuena's room during this Soul Master Tournament, leaving her own room to be occupied by her roommate Wang Dong'er.

This made Wang Dong'er extremely dissatisfied. She had finally managed to draw a room with Xu Xingyu, but Gu Yuena had pulled this trick!

This made Jiang Nannan, Gu Qiuxi, and Xu Yanxue all purse their lips to prevent themselves from bursting into laughter.

You know, Wang Dong'er really outdid them in this draw. Although they also disliked Gu Yuena's monopolistic behavior, it was still pretty good to see Wang Dong'er get the short end of the stick.

This made Wang Dong'er vow in her heart that after this competition, she must complete the Sea God Nine Trials, surpass Gu Yuena, seize the position of the main wife, and then put Gu Yuena in a state where she can only look but not touch.

Of course, Wang Dong'er, as the empress, will be very merciful and at least allow her to drink some of the remaining soup.

While Wang Dong'er was daydreaming about getting revenge on Gu Yuena, Xu Xingyu was also led (or rather, forced) to their room by Gu Yuena.

Once inside the room, Gu Yuena began to harass Xu Xingyu.

Feeling Gu Yuena's restless hands, Xu Xingyu said helplessly, "Alright, alright, stop playing around. Let's get down to business. I don't think you brought me here specifically for this kind of thing, did you?"

Gu Yuena replied with an innocent expression, "Isn't this the important matter? Or do you want Dong'er, Nannan, Xiao Xue, and Qiu'er to join us too? Jiujiu Jiu and Xiaotao Tao are still guarding the Spirit Contract Pagoda and will be here later."

Xu Xingyu looked at Gu Yuena speechlessly, "... Are you that thirsty? Can't you wait until tonight?"

Is this truly the Silver Dragon King, the embodiment of wisdom and a manifestation of the Dragon God? This is more like the Lustful Dragon King!

Gu Yuena said with a sullen expression, "... Fine... but I want double tonight."

"Bomb!!!"

Xu Xingyu flicked her forehead with her finger and said, "Stop fooling around. Don't you have any thoughts about the chaotic aura on Huo Yuhao?"

After gently rubbing her forehead, Gu Yuena finally became serious. "Oh, that chaotic divine energy. I feel that it's less a fusion of multiple divine energies and more a product of mixing them together."

"That's true. If it's the divine energy after complete fusion, we won't be able to clearly perceive the independent auras of the three divine energies," Xu Xingyu pondered.

"And what's most puzzling is that one of these three divine powers is not from an evil god."

"The Rakshasa God and the God of Evil among the three auras should respectively come from Huo Yuhao's Divine Slaughter's Domain, which seems to have come from nowhere, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger bloodline within him. But where did the third one come from?"

"Yes, the auras of the Rakshasa God and the God of Evil are very obvious, but the third divine aura is probably concealed by the dense evil aura carried by the other two, so we have never been able to confirm its true form." Gu Yuena frowned, her heart filled with doubt.

"Don't you think this aura is very similar to the aura of the White Tiger God?" Xu Xingyu asked.

"They are indeed very similar, but that's precisely what makes me even more puzzled," Gu Yuena continued. "After all, the White Tiger God is one of the four great familiar gods; its legacy should be in your hands."

"Furthermore, even if the White Tiger God left behind a legacy elsewhere, Huo Yuhao, who obtained that legacy, shouldn't have any reason to harbor any hostility towards you. But..."

What Gu Yuena said is indeed true; the title of "familiar god" is not just a title to be used casually.

Ordinary gods may have higher-level gods as their superiors, but that is at most a superior-subordinate relationship.

The relationship between a deity and his retinue is more that of servants. The master can take away the authority of the deity at any time, or even the Power of Faith, if he so desires.

Therefore, the holder of a deity's possession cannot harbor any hostility towards their superior.

Therefore, it can be inferred that the third divine energy on Huo Yuhao did not come from the White Tiger God Position, but was a power bestowed by a deity similar to the White Tiger God.

The question is, does God Position similar to the White Tiger God exist? He recalled that it wasn't mentioned in the original novel.

The only God Position he could think of similar to the White Tiger was the Evil Eye Holy King, who appeared in the Douluo 1 manga.

But the aura he exuded felt somewhat different from the Evil Eye Holy King I remembered; it was as if he had mutated or something?

It seems that only after all the memories belonging to the Starry Dragon Emperor's lifetime are filled in can we know the answer from those memories.

Another method would require Xu Xingyu or Gu Yuena to conduct a Divine Sense probe on Huo Yuhao at a closer distance in order to unravel this mystery.

"Speaking of which, Huo Yuhao already has the favor of two different gods, both of whom are evil God Position. Why would a third divine being also favor him?" Gu Yuena asked in confusion.

Xu Xingyu sighed, "Perhaps that god has some special relationship with Huo Yuhao, but only Huo Yuhao himself probably knows the specifics."

After discussing it for a while, the two decided to put the issue aside for the time being, since there was only this much clue, and thinking about it any further would be of no use.

For now, we should go to the Spirit Contract Pagoda of the Mingdu branch and see if they can find any evidence of an internal traitor in the Sun Moon branch.

The Spirit Contract Pagoda distributed Mingdu are almost identical to those at headquarters, the only difference being that they have a few fewer floors.

Therefore, Xu Xingyu and Gu Yuena quickly found the location of the office and prepared to greet the tower master of this branch.

However, to their surprise, the moment they opened the door, the tower master of the Sun Moon branch was talking to someone, and that person was no ordinary person, but the crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire, who was also the current regent, Xu Tianran.
