Inside the hotel, Beibei suddenly shivered. He felt as if someone had locked onto him.
Five years of battlefield experience had made Beibei extremely alert; he immediately scanned the room, leaving Xu Sanshi beside him confused.
"What's wrong, Beibei?"
After checking all around and finding nothing, Beibei shook his head slightly.
"Nothing. It's just… ever since we came to the Sun Moon Empire, I've felt uneasy in my heart."
What Beibei did not expect was that his words actually struck a chord with Xu Sanshi. Xu Sanshi nodded heavily.
"So it's not just me. I also feel like something bad might happen in this Soul Master Tournament."
"But thinking carefully, it's probably because the shadow Huo Yuhao left in our hearts back then was too strong. Even after five years, when we think about it, it's still something we can't get past!"
When they remembered the scene where the two of them, under the influence of Jinghua Shuiyue, pierced each other's kidneys, both Beibei and Xu Sanshi's eyes dimmed simultaneously.
The previous tournament had turned them into cripples. In this one… what would they lose?
Although they didn't know Huo Yuhao's current soul power level, Shrek Academy had records saying that the cultivation speed of an Ultimate Martial Soul slowed down more and more as the level increased.
Maybe, after five years, they had already caught up to Huo Yuhao?
After all, after experiencing the blood and fire of war, Beibei and Xu Sanshi—the former twin stars of Shrek Academy's outer court—had already become Soul Emperors!
However, when the Soul Master Tournament officially began, and Crown Prince Xu Tiannan announced that the first match would be Sun Moon Royal Soul Tool Academy versus Dragon-Slaying Sect, and Huo Yuhao walked out as a participant—
The aura coming off Huo Yuhao made Beibei and Xu Sanshi's hearts instantly sink to the bottom.
Compared to five years ago, Huo Yuhao now seemed even stronger.
Indeed—just because they had worked desperately for five years to increase their strength, who could guarantee that Huo Yuhao wouldn't continue training just as hard instead of becoming complacent after winning the previous tournament?
The moment Huo Yuhao appeared, deafening cheers erupted across the arena. All the citizens of Mingdu in the audience stood up on their own, screaming his name with wild enthusiasm.
The momentum of their cheering surpassed even the worship that Shrek Academy had received in past tournaments!
Facing this, even the Sun Moon Emperor and Crown Prince Xu Tiannan—watching from above—felt no displeasure. In fact, they were more delighted than anyone else.
Not just because Huo Yuhao deserved it, but because someone originally from the Star Luo Empire could win such genuine love from Sun Moon Empire citizens. This was proof of the empire's inclusiveness, and why talent flocked from the original three Douluo nations into the Sun Moon Empire!
Facing the overwhelming cheers, Huo Yuhao did not panic. He smiled openly and waved to the surrounding spectators, making the cheering grow even louder.
It was no exaggeration—though he was only a viscount, Huo Yuhao's prestige in the Sun Moon Empire was second only to the Emperor and Crown Prince!
No one else could even compare.
Those civilian-use soul tools he developed over the years were definitely not made for nothing.
As ordinary people, they didn't think deeply and their horizons were limited—but at least they knew who was truly good to them and who had changed their way of life!
Amid the thunderous roars, the participants from Dragon-Slaying Sect also entered the arena.
Originally, as a sect, they looked down on academies. But they had heard Huo Yuhao's name, and knew that five years ago, during the previous tournament, he had already been a Soul King.
Because of this, Dragon-Slaying Sect immediately sent out their strongest member, hoping to secure victory in one match.
When the referee announced the start of the match, the team captain instantly released his martial soul. Six soul rings rose from under his feet—exactly the best soul ring configuration recognized across the continent.
Seeing this, Xu Tiannan's eyes showed a trace of amusement. He very much wanted to see how the crowd would react once Huo Yuhao released his soul rings.
And Huo Yuhao did not disappoint him. The reason Sun Moon Royal Soul Tool Academy had been arranged to fight first, and why Huo Yuhao was the first to appear, was to give him the best possible stage. Naturally, he wouldn't waste it.
A faint golden light flickered in Huo Yuhao's eyes—Lingmou activated—and eight soul rings appeared all at once.
White, purple, purple, black, black, black, red, red.
Not only did it display his current Soul Douluo strength, but it also completely broke the traditional "best" soul ring configuration. The once-noisy stadium fell instantly silent.
The bizarre silence persisted for a long moment. Then, with the sound of people gulping in shock rising one after another, the cheers suddenly erupted again—far louder than before.
They truly had not expected that Viscount Huo Yuhao had already become a Soul Douluo-level expert!
If they remembered correctly, he was only seventeen or eighteen, right?
What was a peerless genius? Viscount Huo—he was the true peerless genius!
Compared to the Sun Moon Empire citizens' frenzy, the sects and academies who had come to Mingdu to participate felt their hearts sink. Everyone felt terrible.
Especially the Dragon-Slaying Sect captain. When he saw Huo Yuhao's eight soul rings, his legs began trembling uncontrollably.
What the hell is this!? Huo Yuhao was younger than him, yet he had been smug about being a Soul Emperor… and now the opponent standing before him was a Soul Douluo?
And not just any Soul Douluo—one with two 100,000-year soul rings!?
He suddenly felt the elder who led their team had completely misled him, saying that defeating Huo Yuhao would make his name resound across the continent.
That elder really thought too highly of him!
For a moment, this captain was torn between whether it was less embarrassing to surrender immediately, or to be instantly one-shot by Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao didn't give him the chance to decide.
To deliver the perfect opening performance for the tournament, he didn't use Jinghua Shuiyue to trap the opponent in illusions.
On the contrary—Huo Yuhao stomped hard, his figure vanishing on the spot.
The next second, he appeared in front of the opponent and swung his fist, smashing it straight toward the Dragon-Slaying Sect captain's head.
Even though the captain sensed danger at the last moment, with Huo Yuhao's speed he had no time to react. He could only take the blow head-on.
Boom!
With a heavy sound, under Huo Yuhao's overwhelming power, the unfortunate captain was blasted out of the arena in an instant.
Seeing this, the ninth-rank Soul Engineer acting as referee wasted no time shouting into the amplification soul tool:
"Winner—Huo Yuhao!"
