At this moment, it wasn't just Ma Xiaotao—other girls were also extremely curious, all turning to look at Huo Yuhao.
In reality, Huo Yuhao had not reached the title of Douluo.
He had merely split his million-year soul ring, derived from his Undead God's essence, into nine separate soul rings.
Although he could display the soul rings, he couldn't actually use a single soul skill.
They were only good for scaring people.
However, Huo Yuhao had no intention of revealing the secrets of his godly essence.
Looking at everyone's expectant faces, he gave a mischievous smile.
"This… is my secret. I can't tell you~"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately complained.
"Huo Yuhao! Come on, tell us!"
"Yeah! How can you hide it from us? Are you even a man?"
"Exactly! You've seen all our secrets, and now it's your turn—you're keeping things from us!"
…
The room was instantly filled with the sound of arguing.
Meanwhile, on the other side, after the shock of the first match, the Douluo Continent's Advanced Soul Master Academy Douhun Competition was in full swing. Huo Yuhao's performance in the first battle had already left a deep impression on every participant and spectator.
Especially his bold declaration before leaving—it had gone viral across Xingluo City in just one day.
Since the first day was elimination matches, the next two days allowed the Shrek Academy members to rest, but the reinforcements they eagerly awaited still didn't appear.
These two days were the busiest for Wang Yan, who came and went constantly, appearing and disappearing like a divine dragon.
It wasn't until the third day at dusk that he finally gathered all the team members in the meeting room.
He turned his gaze to the seven members of the reserve team:
"In the first battle, you showed the full momentum of Shrek Academy—more precisely, you made Shrek's honor shine brilliantly."
"In the past two days, I've been observing other academies' matches while listening to reactions about our first battle—the effect has exceeded expectations."
"Now, in the eyes of the other academies, Shrek Academy represents mystery and strength. They have no idea how powerful we really are."
"Among them, Yuhao is undoubtedly the most talked-about. After our deliberate display that day, he has clearly become the leading figure of our team in their eyes."
The others cheered for Huo Yuhao, making him feel slightly embarrassed.
Being too popular truly could be a burden.
Ma Xiaotao, meanwhile, smiled gently at Huo Yuhao, her eyes occasionally showing a hint of affection.
Once the cheers settled, Wang Yan continued:
"Now, a brief explanation—after the elimination rounds, sixty-seven teams will enter the round-robin stage, divided into eight groups. Three groups will have nine members, the remaining five will have eight."
"In the group stage, we will fight seven matches. The round-robin stage is expected to last fifteen to sixteen days."
"Based on your cultivation levels and my understanding of you, Yuhao will still lead in team battles. If there's a one-on-one elimination, Yuhao will go first, Ma Xiaotao will be the last."
Wang Yan stood: "Everyone rest well tonight and get into peak condition. Meeting adjourned!"
The members stood and left. As Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong walked toward their room, Huo Yuhao suddenly felt something and turned toward the end of the hallway.
A young man, about fourteen or fifteen, handsome and intense, was staring at him.
Huo Yuhao's eyes immediately darkened. From his moon-white battle suit and his position, he knew exactly who it was—the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy student.
"Huo Yuhao, remember my name. I'm Xiao Hongchen. I will defeat you." The handsome youth raised his thumb and turned it downward at Huo Yuhao.
"You—" Wang Dong's eyes flashed coldly, but Huo Yuhao pressed his shoulder to stop him.
Huo Yuhao immediately raised his hand, firing a Dragon's Wrath soul skill at the challenging Xiao Hongchen.
Xiao Hongchen froze. He hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to strike so quickly and instantly activated his soul ring to defend.
However, Huo Yuhao's Dragon's Wrath was overwhelmingly powerful. As a Soul King, Xiao Hongchen felt the shadow of death looming!
He had no choice but to deploy his level-seven Soul Conductor, barely resisting the attack.
The Soul Conductor, however, was completely destroyed in the process.
Xiao Hongchen, rattled by the shock to his body and blood energy, spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and collapsed onto the ground, swaying.
Fear finally appeared in his eyes as he looked at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao laughed loudly, the sound echoing through the Xinghuang Hotel hallway.
"An insignificant ant, and you dare challenge me?"
Hands behind his back, he strode off, opening his door and bringing Wang Dong inside.
His voice carried down the hallway, and soon, everyone knew what had happened.
As more people gathered to watch, Xiao Hongchen, embarrassed by the blood, quickly left—but instead of shame, excitement lit his face.
He had confirmed one thing: Huo Yuhao was not a title Douluo. Otherwise, he would have been dead today!
He needed to spread this information!
But the other participants in the hotel didn't know—they only saw Huo Yuhao's ruthlessness, his ability to seriously injure someone with little effort.
Huo Yuhao was terrifying!
Instantly, people withdrew to their rooms, trembling.
…
"Why did you stop me?" Wang Dong said angrily as they entered the room.
"Are you crazy? Xiao Hongchen is a Soul King. You think you could fight him?"
"What?" Wang Dong was shocked. "Impossible… He doesn't seem that much older than us. Maybe a reserve student from Sun Moon Royal, but a Soul King?"
"Why not? Don't forget, Dai Huabin reached Soul King. Why can't others?"
"Maybe twelve-year-old Soul Kings were rare thousands of years ago, but now, after ten thousand years, talents are abundant. Nothing unusual."
Wang Dong frowned, his large blue eyes showing concern.
"If even the reserve team is this strong, can we really win against the official team?"
Huo Yuhao pretended to ponder, smiling wryly:
"You're right, Wang Dong. In that case, let's start cultivating immediately!"
"Cultivate? Cultivate what?"
Before Wang Dong could react, Huo Yuhao picked him up and swiftly turned off the lights.
"Of course… the Hao Dong Power!"
"Remember, our soul powers must merge together!"
In the darkness, Wang Dong's protests rang out:
"No… Huo Yuhao… your soul power is too much!"
"Ugh ugh ugh!"
