Shrek City, East Gate.
Ever since Yan Shaozhe had returned to the academy and had reported Huo Yuhao's proposal of a hostage exchange, the Shrek City defense army had been making preparations here all along.
The opponent was the number one prodigy on the continent and a key figure in the evil soul master organization. Shrek Academy could not afford to have the slightest bit of a slack.
They still remembered that in the tournament three months ago, Huo Yuhao had, with that special martial soul fusion skill, violently beaten a group of Sea God Pavilion elders, as well as the Beast God Di Tian and other Star Dou ferocious beasts who had appeared in the end and had rescued Huo Yuhao.
In order to wipe out Huo Yuhao and the other evil soul masters in one fell swoop, Shrek Academy had raised its voice and had gathered as many graduates as possible. They had even borrowed manpower from the various countries of the original Douluo Continent.
Although the hostage exchange was only known to a small number of people in the Shrek inner court, there were still many busybodies who had smelled the aura of an impending storm. These few days, they had early on been surrounding this place, quietly observing the development of the situation.
At this time, it was already noon. Just as the many busybodies were still guessing what big move Shrek Academy was preparing to make, one after another of a long howl suddenly echoed through the entire airspace of Shrek City.
Countless people were horrified to find that one after another of a stream of light, dragging a long tail flame, had come from all four directions. With an unparalleled majesty, they had all gathered here.
"Ti... Titled Douluo..."
"They're all Titled Douluos—"
On the continent, on the surface, how many Titled Douluos were there in total? I'm afraid they could be counted on one hand. But now, the ones who had gathered in the sky above Shrek City were more than the number of two hands?
A big move! An absolutely big move!
Just as countless people were shocked by Shrek's powerful appeal, the city gate had opened wide. The vast and mighty Shrek City defense army had also swarmed out. Every army was led by several Soul Douluos. Impressively, it was also a fighting force that could not be underestimated.
Heavens! Is Shrek going to march into the Star Dou Great Forest? Even if the Beast God Di Tian were to lead a group of ferocious beasts to attack, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to deal with it all at once, right?
Just at this time, a dazzling golden light had shot up to the sky from the very center of the Shrek Academy's inner court. From the brilliant and holy golden light emanated a majesty that made everyone can't help but prostrate themselves in worship.
The golden light had shot straight up to the clouds, and in the end, had transformed into a huge, golden trident.
Many of the students who had graduated from the Shrek inner court had recognized this aura. This was clearly the Sea God's light, and was also Shrek's greatest reliance.
The legend of ten thousand years ago, how could the world possibly forget? Some of the experts from the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Ling Empire had even shed tears. The predecessor of the two countries, the Heaven Dou Empire, had once been under the protection of the Sea God, and had even more so had an emperor whose name was recorded in the annals of history, who was a disciple of that legend!
"Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!"
It's unknown who had started to shout. In an instant, countless people had also begun to shout along, with a fanaticism and a worship from the bottom of their hearts, shouting the name of the number one academy on the continent.
As if in response to the cheers of the people, several figures had bathed in the Sea God's light and, with a golden stream of light, had sweep past to the sky above the east gate of Shrek City. The one in the lead was impressively the contemporary dean of Shrek's martial soul department, the Bright Phoenix Douluo, Yan Shaozhe.
"Today, I, Shrek, will, for the common people of the world, eradicate evil! And kill the evil soul masters!"
With the fall of his declaration, countless people had responded one after another. They had finally known what Shrek's action this time was for.
Evil soul masters! It's actually to clean up the evil soul master organization! But with Shrek's formation, how would an evil soul master dare to rashly come?
Shrek's side had a full thirty Titled Douluos. Among them were even nearly ten Super Douluos. And the Soul Douluo experts were even more so in the hundreds. This force could almost destroy the continent.
Just as everyone's heart was full of questions, the clear and arrogant voice had in an instant covered all the noise, echoing through the entire sky.
"Hahahaha! Shrek is really as shameless as ever! Old dog Yan, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? A defeated dog still dares to bark wildly?"
The youth's contemptuous and mocking voice went straight into the minds of everyone present, which made many of the experts with a spiritual-type martial soul show a look of horror. Who is the one who has come? What a powerful spiritual power!
He has improved again!
This was the thought in the hearts of every Sea God Pavilion elder who had fought with Huo Yuhao. Three months ago, they had still not been affected by Huo Yuhao's spiritual power. And now, Huo Yuhao's voice could already go straight to their minds from an extremely far place.
This son's progress could be called divine speed!
And every time the old men of Shrek thought of such a figure actually being their enemy, they couldn't help but feel uneasy in their sleep and food.
This son must not be allowed to continue to live!
Soon, countless people had seen in the horizon, countless figures had sweep past and had arrived. The one in the lead, behind his back, had unfolded a pair of exquisite and beautiful ice-crystal wings. In his embrace, he was holding a woman who looked a little old yet still graceful and noble.
One after another of evil soul master Titled Douluos, whose entire bodies were shrouded in a black cloak, all stopped on his two sides. Looking at the youth in front, all of their eyes were full of excitement.
This was the Holy Son of their Holy Spirit Cult! The number one prodigy on the continent! The number one in talent for all of eternity!
Although at this time Huo Yuhao only had five rings, how could the Holy Son's true combat power be viewed with common sense?
"Huo Yuhao!"
A group of Sea God Pavilion elders all cast their gazes on the youth at the very front, their faces extremely complex. Their Shrek had always been recorded in the annals of history for cultivating talents. Today, on the contrary, they had to personally kill this eternally number one prodigy.
"My wife, I am grateful to all of you for your care."
Huo Yuhao smiled wickedly. An extremely dangerous aura emanated from his body. One blue and four white, four soul rings appeared one by one. The terrifying pressure of the Ice and Snow Two Emperors suddenly burst out.
At this time, Zhongli Yu was being held in Elder Song's hand. Hearing Huo Yuhao's voice, her tears immediately couldn't stop from flowing down.
"Holy Son—"
Huo Yuhao had long since discovered her through his spiritual perception. Just like Xian Lin'er, she had also had her soul power imprisoned by the people of Shrek. Most importantly, her aura no longer had its former evil and was not in the least bit like an evil soul master.
Ever since she had been captured by Mu En that day, she had been suppressed under the Golden Tree and had been receiving the baptism of the Sea God's light. She was originally an evil soul master with countless fresh blood on her hands, and it was unknown how many souls of the dead she had used to nourish her martial soul.
She had not expected that her Blood Soul Demonic Puppet martial soul, after one day of being baptized by the pure and holy Sea God's light, not only had the ultimate evil aura of her martial soul been completely cleansed, but its origin had also been destroyed by the Sea God's light. In this kind of a situation, even if she were to be saved, in the future, I'm afraid she would no longer be able to be a soul master.
Huo Yuhao had guessed that Shrek would do something to Zhongli Yu's body, but he had not expected that they would be so cruel to a woman. Of course, he had not yet had the time to carefully examine her and did not know Zhongli Yu's exact condition.
"Stop with the nonsense. Huo Yuhao, let's begin," Yan Shaozhe had suffered no small number of setbacks at Huo Yuhao's hands. The urgent task now was to exchange for Xian Lin'er. With one more Super Douluo, Xian Lin'er, their chances of winning would naturally also be greater.
"Holy Son, be careful of a trick," Zhongli Wu immediately spoke out to remind him. He followed Huo Yuhao and flew up to the city tower, inseparable.
On Shrek's side, Yan Shaozhe and his wife, Cai Mei'er, looked at each other and also descended towards the east gate's city tower.
Getting closer, only then did Zhongli Yu see clearly Huo Yuhao's appearance. Especially when she saw that Huo Yuhao's two pupils were covered by a cloth, her heartbeat immediately slowed by half a beat.
What's wrong with my Yuhao? His eyes! How could it be!
Yan Shaozhe also once again saw the long-lost Xian Lin'er. Compared to before in the Sea God Pavilion, her aura was visibly much weaker, no longer having the former style of a Valkyrie Douluo.
"Huo Yuhao! What have you done to Lin'er?" Yan Shaozhe was the first to make a move, asking angrily.
What a good case of the villain suing first! Huo Yuhao laughed in extreme anger. He had also just used his spiritual power to probe Zhongli Yu's current situation. He had in an instant understood how good or bad it was.
"Old dog Yan! This sentence should be asked by me! What have you done to my wife?"
Yan Shaozhe was so humiliated by Huo Yuhao's one after another of "old dog" that his face was a mixture of green and red. He was not a broad-minded person. He immediately couldn't help but want to make a move. Fortunately, he was pulled back by the Cai Mei'er at his side.
Cai Mei'er shook her head at him. Now that both sides were in the sight of everyone, even if the other side was an evil soul master, Shrek's face could not be lost.
She had just now sensed Xian Lin'er's situation. Besides the fact that her aura was weak because her heart was frustrated, Huo Yuhao had indeed not done anything to her.
"Hmph, be content! Your woman has had the honor of enjoying the bath of the Sea God's light. You've gotten a bargain and you're still complaining!" Yan Shaozhe's words were shameless. As the dean of the martial soul department, it was naturally impossible for him not to know the harm of the pure and holy Sea God's light to an evil soul master's martial soul.
"The Sea God's light?" Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment. Immediately, he recalled the soul power fluctuation of Zhongli Yu that he had just sensed. An unprecedented anger immediately rushed straight to the top of his head.
"F*ck your mother! Shrek! You really did it!"
