Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

“Little brother Yuhao, first of all, congratulations on obtaining your soul ring as you wished. Your talent has really opened my eyes. May I ask where you are from?” Bei Bei asked. The three of them got along quite well during the day, and with Tang Ya, the foodie, intentionally getting closer, their relationship had become much closer.

At this time, Tang Ya also pricked up her ears to hear about Huo Yuhao's background. She was still thinking about pulling him into her sect, so naturally, she had to find out his origins.

After a moment of silence, a calm voice sounded. Huo Yuhao said unhurriedly, “Big brother Bei, you think too highly of me. I am just an orphan, without father or mother, so how can I talk about origins?”

As soon as these words came out, Bei Bei and Tang Ya looked at each other, both with joy in their eyes. Because Huo Yuhao had excellent talent, they thought Huo Yuhao had an extraordinary background, and looking at his handsome appearance, he didn't seem like someone from an ordinary family. If that were the case, their chances of pulling Huo Yuhao into the Tang Sect would be very slim.

But now they saw great hope. From Huo Yuhao's words, they could hear that he had not joined any forces or families. Moreover, an eleven or twelve-year-old child without parents should be more eager for affection in his heart. So at this time, Bei Bei had already begun to consider playing the emotional card. Of course, what he didn't know was that the psychological age of this seemingly harmless teenager in front of him was not what it seemed on the surface.

“Then, little brother Yuhao, what are your plans next?” Bei Bei continued to ask.

Huo Yuhao was stunned when he heard this. After a brief thought, he replied, “Naturally, I will go to find a senior academy to enroll in. This period is also the time for various academies to recruit students.”

Bei Bei smiled slightly when he heard this. This was exactly what he wanted. So he suggested, “Since that's the case, why don't you go to Shrek Academy with us? The academy is the number one academy on the continent. I believe you can learn the knowledge you want in the academy.”

Huo Yuhao pretended to hear the hidden meaning in Bei Bei's words and asked in surprise, “From big brother Bei's meaning, are you a student of Shrek?”

“That's right, both Xiaoya and I are studying in the outer court of Shrek Academy.” Bei Bei admitted frankly. There was nothing to hide. On the contrary, being able to join Shrek was an honor, even if it was just the outer court.

But at this time, Bei Bei saw Huo Yuhao shaking his head. Bei Bei's smile gradually faded. While feeling unhappy, he was also very puzzled. Was this person's brain burned out? There were actually people who didn't want to join their Shrek Academy. That was the number one academy on the continent, a holy place that once taught gods, okay?

Just when Bei Bei was secretly feeling that Huo Yuhao didn't know how to appreciate favors, he heard the latter explain, “Enrolling in Shrek requires a recommendation letter from a main city level.”

Speaking of this, Huo Yuhao suddenly felt a little funny in his heart. Shrek was known as the holy land of soul masters on the continent, but in fact, it was the holy land of genius noble soul masters. If you don't believe it, let a commoner try it and see if Shrek will let you into their gate.

Would anyone really think that commoner soul masters can get in touch with big figures at the main city level? In other words, those soul masters who can get in touch with the main city and have three or four rings have already broken away from the commoner class.

The city lord of Douluo Continent's main city is at least equivalent to the mayor of Blue Star. May I ask, can ordinary people contact the mayor and ask the other party to write a recommendation letter?

Thinking of himself in the original book, he was really fooled.

Bei Bei suddenly understood. He had forgotten about this. When he enrolled in Shrek, he didn't need so much trouble. It was just a matter of a word, nothing could be simpler. After all, the current dean of Shrek was still a disciple of his great-grandfather.

Bei Bei's expression remained unchanged, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He turned his gaze to Tang Ya and gave her a look.

Tang Ya immediately understood and interjected, “I have a way to enroll in Shrek Academy without a recommendation letter.”

“Sister Tang Ya, what is the method you are talking about?”

“Hehe, it's very simple, you only need to join our sect. Our sect has one guaranteed spot for Shrek every year, and you can enroll in Shrek without going through the test.” Tang Ya said with a smile, her beautiful eyes narrowed into crescent shapes, like a little fox stealing a chicken.

“Ah, this, let's forget it. Sorry, I don't have any plans to join a sect at the moment.”

As soon as Tang Ya finished speaking, she saw Huo Yuhao shaking his head like a rattle, his tone very resistant.

“Little Yuhao, don't rush to refuse. Let me tell you, our sect is called Tang Sect. Have you heard of Tang Sect?”

“Tang Sect, Tang, Sect?” Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, and then asked uncertainly, “Is it the number one sect on the continent a thousand years ago?”

Tang Ya's expression suddenly became a little stiff. Yes, it had been a thousand years. Since the arrival of the Sun Moon Continent, Tang Sect's hidden weapons had been defeated by soul tools. At that time, Tang Sect began to decline. Today, Tang Sect's glory was long gone.

Shaking her head, throwing those thoughts to the back of her mind, Tang Ya said again; "Little Yuhao, our Tang Sect has indeed declined now, but the inherited skills and secrets in the sect have not been lost. There is a method of eye training that is very suitable for you…"

Tang Ya rambled on for a long time, talking about the benefits of joining the Tang Sect in a colorful way, making Huo Yuhao feel that joining the Tang Sect would have a bright future. Finally, Tang Ya also explained that after joining the Tang Sect, he would also need to work hard for the Tang Sect's comeback and growth.

Huo Yuhao pondered, thinking about what reason to use to refuse. Join the Tang Sect? To hell with it. Sell himself to the Tang Sect for a Purple Demon Eye? He would be a fool to do that. He actually had no feelings for Shrek and the Tang Sect, or even hated them, but he couldn't show it, otherwise, how would a certain pure and flawless God King let him grow smoothly? However, as long as it is a normal person, they should not want to be bound.

Huo Yuhao was still thinking about how to refuse politely when the cheap-mouthed Bei Bei chimed in, "Yuhao, little brother, we look forward to and welcome you to join the Tang Sect, but you have to think clearly. If you regret it in the future and want to betray the sect, neither Xiaoya nor I will spare you, and you will have to return everything you learned in the Tang Sect."

Huo Yuhao felt like his brain wasn't working properly. Return what he learned from the Tang Sect? How could he return it? Would he have his cultivation crippled?

Moreover, if he wanted to leave the Tang Sect, would he only need to return what he learned, or would he be hunted down by Tang Ya and Bei Bei?

Probably... both would be combined for double the fun.

Meeting Bei Bei's serious gaze, Huo Yuhao solemnly nodded. Seeing this, Tang Ya was overjoyed, but before she could be excited for two seconds, she heard Huo Yuhao say, "Brother Bei is right. Joining a sect is a major life event and shouldn't be taken lightly. Thank you for your reminder."

Tang Ya's expression froze, and the words she wanted to say got stuck in her throat. She turned her gaze to Bei Bei, cursing him inwardly, 'You're more than useless, you're a hindrance!' She really didn't expect that the one who would ruin her good deed in the end would be this guy, Bei Bei.

The corners of Bei Bei's mouth twitched. What was going on? Why wasn't it developing according to the script? I was just saying it casually! You really didn't need to take it seriously.

"It's no trouble at all." Bei Bei smiled and shook his head, indicating that it was nothing. Even now, he hadn't given up on recruiting Huo Yuhao. Even if the Tang Sect didn't work out, he could still send him to the academy.

After several refusals, Huo Yuhao thanked Bei Bei and agreed. The other party had already said so much, and it would be abnormal for him to refuse any further. After all, that so-called number one academy on the continent was something countless people were fighting to get into, and he couldn't appear too unusual, could he?

Next, Bei Bei and Tang Ya began to describe Shrek Academy to Huo Yuhao.

"Shrek Academy was founded ten thousand years ago. The initial dean, Flander, set the rule that the academy only accepts monsters, not ordinary people. This is not just an empty phrase. Although Shrek Academy only had seven students, each of them was exceptionally talented. Dean Flander wanted to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament to gain fame and develop the academy. However, Shrek Academy didn't have the qualifications to operate at the time. To obtain the qualifications to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, Flander found his close friend Liu Erlong. His original intention was to merge with the Blue Tyrant Academy established by Liu Erlong, but who knew that Dean Liu Erlong would directly give the Blue Tyrant Academy to Flander? Therefore, the merged academy became Shrek Academy. Because the students of the Blue Tyrant Academy were uneven and far from being comparable to the Shrek Seven Devils, Dean Flander established the distinction between inner and outer courtyards at that time."

"Later, Shrek won the championship in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, and from then on, the reputation of Shrek Academy completely spread. The emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire directly gave Shrek Academy the greatest support and conferred the title of 'Royal' to Shrek Academy, changing its full name to 'Royal Shrek Academy.'"

Huo Yuhao thought to himself, 'Actually, you don't need to say it in so much detail. I know the history of Shrek better than you.' To be honest, Huo Yuhao didn't have a single good impression of Shrek. Just look at what Flander, the founder of Shrek, taught: 'It is incompetence to be afraid of causing trouble.'

Yes, the original Shrek Seven Devils showed the spirit of causing trouble very well when they bullied Canghui Academy. Even Zhao Wuji, the teacher who led the team at the time, slapped the teachers of Canghui Academy so hard that they saw stars.

But later, when Shrek Academy was preparing to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, what happened when all the academy teachers wanted to merge into the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? They were very stubborn and beat up the prince, but when the prince brought a Titled Douluo, they didn't dare to fart and scurried away, throwing the idea that 'it is incompetence to be afraid of causing trouble' to the winds.

They euphemistically called it, 'A wise man submits to circumstances.' 'A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late.'

So, to sum it up, the so-called 'it is incompetence to be afraid of causing trouble' of Shrek Academy is essentially bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Of course, not everyone is as arrogant and conceited as Flander. Later Shrek deans were more sensible and diluted the 'causing trouble' school motto.

Shrek's teaching level is not bad, but that's about it. Shrek's success is not because they have some heaven-defying ability to turn waste into genius.

It's the student body. Flander, with his dog-shit luck, encountered the main character with a cheat, and was carried to success, becoming famous in the Soul Master Competition. Afterwards, the Shrek Seven Devils became gods at level 100, and their names spread throughout the continent.

Flander seized the opportunity to promote it and even tricked and deceived a large number of talented soul masters, and from then on, Shrek truly rose.

Huo Yuhao didn't care about any teaching. In this regard, Shrek was almost unworthy to carry Ming Zhihan's shoes. In Ming Zhihan's world, spiritual power appeared abruptly, and there were no secret cultivation methods passed down. Everyone was groping their way across the river, and those who could stand at the top were all amazingly talented. It wasn't that Huo Yuhao looked down on them, but the top experts of Blue Star were really not comparable to this group of mediocre people from Shrek.

He had obtained all of Ming Zhihan's memories, so naturally he was not interested in the so-called teaching. Entering Shrek Academy was just a performance.
