Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Just as Lu Qingming opened his mouth to say something, a sudden wave of dizziness washed over him, and the words caught in his throat. Lu Qingming was shocked and secretly thought something was wrong. In that instant, many thoughts raced through his mind. On one hand, he worried about being crippled and losing his chance to study at Shrek Academy. On the other hand, he hoped that Du Weilun would intervene in time to rescue him.

A gust of wind swept past his face, but Lu Qingming remained unharmed. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Xiao Xiao had joined forces with Dong Xinyi, and together they were pushing Zhang Kui back, close to defeat. It looked like he wouldn't last much longer.

Turning his gaze to the other side, he saw Wang Qiu'er chasing after Huo Yuhao, neither gaining the upper hand for the time being. Lu Qingming was anxious, but he also understood his own situation. After thanking Xiao Xiao for her mercy, he dejectedly left the stage.

"Are you just going to keep running?" Wang Qiu'er asked, stopping and speaking with annoyance.

A flash of white revealed Huo Yuhao, who spread his hands and said casually, "You have great skill, Miss. I admire you greatly and admit I'm far from your match, but I can't just surrender obediently, can I?"

Hearing this, Wang Qiu'er was momentarily speechless. Ever since she had summoned the Golden Dragon Spear, Huo Yuhao had refused to engage her head-on, instead resorting to stalling tactics. Observing Xiao Xiao's performance, Wang Qiu'er couldn't help but realize what Huo Yuhao was planning. But every time she tried to deal with Xiao Xiao or Dong Xinyi first, Huo Yuhao would jump out and launch a surprise attack, which frustrated her to no end.

In truth, Huo Yuhao was also feeling aggrieved. *You're using a divine artifact, how am I supposed to fight?* Fortunately, this divine artifact didn't seem too powerful, or perhaps Wang Qiu'er couldn't unleash its full potential, otherwise, Huo Yuhao would have been instantly defeated.

Suddenly, a muffled explosion echoed, drawing their attention. They saw Xiao Xiao and Dong Xinyi standing together, with Du Weilun protecting the young man named Zhang Kui behind him. In front of Du Weilun were a dozen purplish-black lightning balls and a large black cauldron, but both the lightning balls and the cauldron were frozen in mid-air, about two meters away from Du Weilun, unable to move forward.

However, that was enough. Xiao Xiao and Dong Xinyi had achieved their goal. The two girls ignored Zhang Kui and turned to walk towards Huo Yuhao.

"Use that move, I'll hold her back."

"Are you sure? Don't underestimate her." Huo Yuhao frowned as he looked at Xiao Xiao approaching. Xiao Xiao's face was slightly pale, indicating that she had suffered from the intense output just now. If he hadn't seen Xiao Xiao fighting so hard, Huo Yuhao would have given up and left the stage long ago, so he wouldn't have stalled until now.

"We have to try, don't we? Just like you said, are you willing to give up like this?"

Huo Yuhao was silent for a moment before speaking, "Alright, let's do as you say, but be careful, don't push yourself too hard, safety first."

Xiao Xiao simply smiled, said nothing more, nodded, and turned to face Wang Qiu'er.

Wang Qiu'er glanced at Huo Yuhao, then shifted her gaze to Xiao Xiao. "He can't stop me, but you can?" From beginning to end, she didn't seem flustered, even now, facing a three-on-one situation.

"We'll see. Try breaking my Three Lives Soul震魂 Cauldron first." As soon as the words fell, the black cauldron appeared in front of Xiao Xiao, splitting into three to block Wang Qiu'er's path.

"Is that so? Then let's see." Wang Qiu'er snorted coldly, then with a flick of her spear, countless spear shadows rushed towards the black cauldron, and she herself followed closely behind, spear in hand.

"Bei Bei, what do you think? Can Yuhao and the others win?"

"Hehe, that's hard to say. We were all there last time and witnessed the power of that move. Logically speaking, it's impossible for someone at the three-ring level to withstand it, even if it's only half as powerful this time. But that Wang Qiu'er doesn't seem like an ordinary three-ring soul master, and look at how calm and composed she is from beginning to end, as if she has some trump card waiting for Yuhao." The speaker was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a handsome face and a light purple gown, exuding an elegant aura. He seemed to be a natural aristocrat. Beside him stood a girl of similar age, with her black hair tied into a medium-length ponytail, wearing a blue skirt. Needless to say, this girl held a grilled fish in each hand, one untouched and the other half-eaten, her fair face covered in grease.

These two were naturally Tang Ya and Bei Bei. They could be considered the main spectators, as they could be seen at almost every one of Huo Yuhao's matches. At this time, the two had already reconciled, and the little conflict they had in the Star Dou Great Forest had long been forgotten.

Compared to the relaxed and carefree atmosphere of the audience, Xiao Xiao was not having a good time. After only three exchanges, Xiao Xiao's delicate face was already pale and bloodless. Only after truly fighting Wang Qiu'er did Xiao Xiao truly understand the immense pressure Huo Yuhao had been under.

A clang of metal resounded as the spear and the black cauldron clashed, creating sparks. In an instant, the black cauldron flew backward, crashing into Xiao Xiao behind it. Fortunately, Xiao Xiao was far enough from the edge of the stage, otherwise, she might have been knocked off.

The black cauldron slid back more than twenty meters with Xiao Xiao before finally stopping. A half-inch dent appeared on the cauldron where the spear had struck. Xiao Xiao herself was in even worse shape, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth, confirming that she had suffered a significant injury.

The cauldron spun around, and Xiao Xiao was horrified by the clear dent, which outsiders couldn't see. Xiao Xiao knew better than anyone how terrifying the Three Lives Soul震魂 Cauldron's defense was. This was the first time it had been damaged.

Taking a deep breath, the Three Lives Soul震魂 Cauldron turned into a cloud of black mist and surged into Xiao Xiao's body, disappearing. Xiao Xiao had actively recalled it. Now that her martial soul was damaged, she couldn't allow the situation to worsen. Fortunately, the martial soul and its master were one, and as long as the martial soul wasn't completely shattered, it wasn't a major issue.

Although it was a close call, Xiao Xiao's pale face showed a hint of a smile, as her goal had been achieved. Then, she quickly dodged to the side.
