Douluo: Rebirth Yuhao, they all have evil intentions

Wan La!

Seeing her teacher's expression of "May you be blessed by yourself", Ke Ke's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. After a short period of daze, she squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Um. Meet the hall master, meet the director. I, I."

While talking incoherently, Ke Ke subconsciously moved behind Huo Yuhao, as if only in this way could she feel a little safe.

"... It's okay, young people are straightforward and can be understood."

Jing Hongchen naturally didn't need to argue with a little girl. Seeing the girl who was shrinking behind Huo Yuhao and was about to cry anxiously, the resentment on his face immediately disappeared.

However, before Ke Ke's face showed joy, his expression suddenly became serious.

"But little girl, as a student of my Sun Moon Academy, you should have confidence in Mingde Hall. You geniuses are the future of Sun Moon, and the academy will do its best to protect your safety."

"Thank you for your guidance, Hall Master."

Faced with Jing Hongchen's reprimand, Ke Ke shuddered for a moment, then her expression became serious and she made an impassioned promise.

"What I said just now was just a joke with my companions. In fact, I have always been full of confidence in our Mingde Hall!"

"."

Jing Hongchen's mouth twitched, and then he set his sights on Huo Yuhao, who was laughing. After seeing the face that was more handsome than Huo Yuhao he had seen in the Soul Master Competition, he couldn't help but be stunned.

No, the information didn't say that this kid was so handsome?

If he was allowed to enter Mingde Hall, he would definitely seduce his lustful granddaughter's soul away.

Wait!

It seems that it is not impossible?

The team leader had already reported to him what happened in the competition, which naturally included the fact that Meng Hongchen seemed to like the Shrek captain Huo Yuhao.

Although Huo Yuhao did have the conditions to be his grandson-in-law, and he himself was not particularly opposed to this matter, he had to do his job, and many things were not as simple as they seemed.

As the head of Mingde Hall, he looked glamorous on the surface, but only he knew how deep the water was, especially now that the emperor was seriously ill and several princes were fighting for power.

Each step was already on thin ice. If someone with ulterior motives knew that his granddaughter liked the genius of the hostile forces, it would inevitably be used to make a fuss.

But apart from this identity, his other identity is Meng Hongchen's grandfather. His son and daughter-in-law died early, so he naturally poured all his love on the two grandchildren. In addition, as a person who had experienced it, he knew very well what the consequences of a one-size-fits-all approach to this kind of youthful love would be.

In order to prevent his precious granddaughter from being resentful of him, he had been persuading her in various ways over the past year, and even went to his grandson Xiao Hongchen several times for this.

However, the result surprised him. Xiao Hongchen not only explicitly refused to do such a thing, but even expressed his high evaluation of Huo Yuhao in front of him, and persuaded him in return, saying that he could let Meng Hongchen contact Huo Yuhao and see the situation before making a decision.

Such an unexpected development made him think for a time that his grandson's orientation was a little abnormal in some aspects.

What?

It's okay that your sister likes his appearance, but could it be that you also like him?

There was no way. He could not find any other way for a while, so he could only put this matter aside temporarily, hoping that time would wear away the feelings in Meng Hongchen's heart.

But now, this "other method".

It's here.

Don't you like handsome guys?

Then grandpa will help you find a more handsome one!

Compared with Huo Yuhao, who is in the enemy camp, Ling Bing is only slightly inferior in talent as a soul master, and his talent in soul guides is not inferior at all.

The most important thing is that the background of this kid in the information looks clean! Although he hadn't had time to send someone to check, he had a rough idea in his heart when he saw the detailed resume.

Even Jing Hongchen himself didn't realize that from the moment he saw Ling Bing, he seemed to have put on some kind of filter, and had a very high liking for this boy whom he had just met for the first time, and even the necessary vigilance was much weaker.

In addition, the old man Ye Yulin was going to snatch people from him, so the verification could be put off until later, but if a good seedling was really poached because of indecision, he would have no place to cry.

As for whether Ling Bing was willing?

Just kidding, not to mention that his granddaughter's appearance was also top-notch, in terms of talent alone, Meng Hongchen was the best female soul mentor in the entire Mingde Hall.

As a sixth-level soul mentor, Meng Hongchen was not much older than Ling Bing. When the time came, he would arrange for the two to have more contact. The two were close in level, and they improved each other. Wouldn't it be easy for them to develop feelings?

In this way, he not only solved Meng Hongchen's problem without bloodshed, but also added a talented son-in-law to his Hongchen family, which was really killing two birds with one stone!

Thinking about it, the expression on Jing Hongchen's face changed as if his face changed, and he quickly became amiable.

"I guess this is classmate Ling Bing? This is the first time we meet. Let me introduce myself. I am Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall, and also the youngest ninth-level soul mentor of Mingde Hall. The one next to me is Xingkong Douluo Ye Yulin, who is also a ninth-level soul mentor."

Ye Yulin's face suddenly turned black after hearing this.

This old fox, obviously not as strong as him, said a lot of titles when introducing himself, but when introducing him, he just said lightly, "I am also a level nine soul guide", making him seem like an additional one.

"Meet the hall master, meet senior Ye."

Huo Yuhao had a perfect look of confusion on his face. After a simple greeting, he blinked and began to wait for Jing Hongchen's next words.

In fact, the moment he saw the other party, he had guessed the purpose of this old fox, but what he didn't expect was that Ye Yulin actually followed him.

According to the situation in the previous life, this Star Douluo should be directly affiliated with the royal family. Why did he suddenly appear in the Sun and Moon Academy?

Is it because of the huge humanoid soul guide?

Or is it the soul guide armor of Xiao Lixuan?

But none of these are important. The important thing is that the way this guy looked at him was the same as Jing Hongchen, like a flower thief seeing a naked beauty, which was really hot and made him sweat.

Combined with the similar things that happened in his previous life, Huo Yuhao guessed that this guy must have seen his information, so he followed him and tried to recruit him.

The next scene further confirmed his guess. Jing Hongchen waved his hand and explained in a gentle voice.

"Don't be too nervous. I came here because I saw your information from Teacher Xuan just now. I want to focus on training you on behalf of Mingde Hall, and Senior Ye wants to accept you as a disciple and hopes that you will leave Sun Moon Academy and study with him alone."

"I know it may be difficult for you to make a decision for a while, and I don't mean to interfere forcefully, but there are some things I'm afraid you don't know, so I'll explain it to you here first."

After a simple brewing, Jing Hongchen spoke again.

"I believe you understand, Ling Bing, that if a soul engineer wants to improve, it is often accompanied by a lot of practice, and practice requires a lot of resources. Perhaps at a low level, this situation is not very obvious, but as the level gradually increases, to the level of eighth-level soul engineer, or even ninth-level soul engineer, developing a soul guide requires a lot of repeated production and trial and error, and the resources consumed can be described as terrifying."

"This level of resource supply can only be possessed by some top forces in the entire continent, and among these top forces, our Mingde Hall is a well-deserved leader."

Speaking of this, Jing Hongchen's tone brought a kind of arrogant confidence, and he solemnly issued an invitation.

"For a soul guide genius like you who only appears once in a thousand years, our Mingde Hall is definitely your best choice. If you join Mingde Hall, Xuan Ziwen will still guide you on weekdays, but including me, the four ninth-level soul guides belonging to Mingde Hall will take time to guide you."

"In addition, we will also give you the greatest support in terms of resources to maximize your soul guide talent. What do you think?"

Hearing the conditions given by Jing Hongchen, Huo Yuhao looked shocked on the surface, but he was secretly anxious in his heart.

What's going on?

Shouldn't the script be that Jing Hongchen made the conditions, and then Ye Yulin made higher conditions in order to recruit him?

Why are you still not talking?

Although he has decided to join Mingde Hall in his heart, Huo Yuhao knows very well that now is not the time to express his position in a hurry.

This is just like auctioning goods at an auction. Since Ye Yulin is present, he must be waiting for the price and wait for the two to bid before making a choice.

Sure enough, two seconds later, Ye Yulin came back to his senses and couldn't help but snorted.

"Master Hongchen really values ​​students, but it's a bit inappropriate to say that only Mingde Hall can bring out his talent."

He was really shocked, not because of the resources promised by Jing Hongchen, but because of the four level nine soul mentors teaching at the same time, which meant that this old fox did not intend to bind Ling Bing in the name of master and apprentice.

What does this guy want?

Without time to think about it, Ye Yulin could only focus on recruiting Huo Yuhao first.

"Ling Bing, I became famous decades earlier than the head of your Mingde Hall, so you may not have heard of my name."

"But I can tell you responsibly that even if you look at the entire Sun Moon Empire, there will never be more than three level nine soul masters who are stronger than me. Also, once a soul master reaches the eighth and ninth levels, he or she will often take the route of mastery, not the more he or she learns, the better. Four level nine soul masters as teachers are not necessarily better than one powerful level nine soul master as a teacher."

"As for the resource issue, it is true that Mingde Hall does have more resources than I do, but as a huge organization, there are too many soul masters to support. Even if there are more resources, they cannot be allocated to you alone."

Speaking of this, Ye Yulin glanced at Jing Hongchen, who had a somewhat ugly expression, and said indifferently.

"By comparison, if you are willing to become my only direct disciple, you can get more resources than staying in Mingde Hall."

As if to prove his words, Ye Yulin hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and opened his hand. Two balls of light, one gold and one silver, appeared in his hand, floating quietly.

"This is my most proud work since I became a ninth-level soul guide. I named it the Sun and Moon Needle. Among all the ninth-level soul guides, it is undoubtedly the top one. If you are willing to become my direct disciple, it will be yours."

“.”

The whole place was silent.

Let alone the others, even Jing Hongchen, who was also a ninth-level soul guide, couldn’t help showing a look of astonishment on his face. His first reaction was that Ye Yulin was crazy.

This was a ninth-level soul guide, and it was also an improved version of Ye Yulin’s most famous Sun Needle!

How could he bear to part with it?

Thinking of this in his heart, he subconsciously looked at Huo Yuhao, but he didn’t expect Huo Yuhao to be looking at him.

After meeting those blue eyes with hesitation, he was a little difficult to decide for a while.

Should he add conditions?

Is a ninth-level soul guide expensive?

It must be expensive.

A good ninth-level soul guide, in terms of value alone, is no less than a hundred thousand year soul ring.

But that is the value to the buyer.

For the manufacturer, the value of a soul guide is mainly concentrated in the cost incurred during the research and development process, as well as the effort and material costs required to manufacture it.

If you want to sell a soul guide, you should do it in a fair and impartial way, and determine a high price based on the two factors, because you have to make a profit. But if it is given as a gift, its value often depends only on the latter, which depends on how much loss you have made by giving away this soul guide.

The technology of giving away a soul guide has been conquered, and you only need to spend energy and materials to make another set of level 9 soul guides. For the maker, it is not an unbearable price.

Compared with the opportunity to recruit a genius who has the opportunity to become a level 10 soul guide in the future, these efforts are nothing.

At most, it is just a part of the dowry in advance...

After preparing himself mentally, Jing Hongchen also took out a piece of golden red gemstone with a painful feeling. The surface looked like a gem composed of countless triangles, which looked very gorgeous.

"The Source of Red Dust is a ninth-level charging soul guide. In simple terms, you can think of it as a ninth-level milk bottle. During use, it can automatically convert the soul power stored inside into soul power that matches the user's cultivation level, so it is a soul guide for all levels."

"Not only that, it also has the function of soul power amplification. It can amplify the soul power input by the user in a very short time and feed it back to the user. Because the amplified soul power flowing back into the body will produce a considerable load, it is best not to use it for a long time..."

Listening to Jing Hongchen's introduction, Huo Yuhao felt a sense of emotion.

What a good thing!

Although Jing Hongchen's ninth-level soul guides do not seem to have any personal characteristics, it must be admitted that their practicality is the best of the best.

Especially the Source of Red Dust, as a charging soul guide, it is the most expensive among the soul guides of the same level.

You know, in the previous life in the Xingluo Empire, the auction price of a level 7 milk bottle reached a terrifying 7 million gold soul coins, and the level 8 melee soul guide, the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Sword, was only sold for more than 1 million.

However, the milk bottle in Jing Hongchen's hand is a real level 9. Whether it is the cost or the effort spent, it is much higher than the Red Dust Blessing that Huo Yuhao got in his previous life.

It can be seen that Jing Hongchen really spent a lot of money to recruit him, but why does he feel that... this old fox looks at him a little strange?

Of course, what impressed Huo Yuhao most about this soul guide was not its function, but the materials needed to make it.

It is conceivable how many top rare metals are contained in a level 9 milk bottle. Isn't the fire source he obtained from Xiao Lixuan lacking these rare metal characteristics that can be used to make level 8 and level 9 soul guides?

However, before Huo Yuhao could speak, Jing Hongchen suddenly noticed Ke Ke, who was hiding behind Huo Yuhao and had been stunned by the shock.

Thinking of the scene where Ke Ke subconsciously shrank behind Huo Yuhao after seeing him, Jing Hongchen suddenly had an idea and said with a smile on his face.

"It can be seen that you have a very good relationship with other companions. This is a good thing. For this reason, I will promise you one more thing. As long as you are willing to join Mingde Hall, your companions can also enter Mingde Hall for study without examination, and the monthly rare metal ration will also be increased accordingly. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, subconsciously glanced at Ju Zi and Ke Ke, and after a moment of silence, he nodded gently.

"Thank you for your respect, Master. In this case, I am willing to join Mingde Hall..."

It must be said that the result of this wool-pulling far exceeded his expectations. He originally just wanted to take this opportunity to obtain more resource allocations so that he could get in touch with those high-level rare metals faster and record their characteristics through the fire source. Unexpectedly, under the stimulation of Ye Yulin, the two of them even took out the ninth-level soul guide.

This is definitely a pleasant surprise.

"Wait a minute."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

Jing Hongchen frowned slightly, tilted his head to look at Ye Yulin, and his voice was obviously a little cold.

"I wonder if Senior Ye has anything else to say?"

Although everyone belongs to different forces, it is all for the Sun and Moon Empire. Jing Hongchen does not want to have a too stiff relationship with Ye Yulin, but this does not mean that he will tolerate this old guy's reckless behavior on his territory.

He has made up his mind that if Ye Yulin continues to make trouble, he will drive this old guy out even if he has a falling out.

Do you really think he has no temper?!

However, Ye Yulin seemed not to sense Jing Hongchen's ill intentions, and calmly pushed the Sun and Moon Divine Needle in his hand towards Huo Yuhao.

"Since the Hongchen Hall Master promised that there would be four level nine soul masters to teach this student, then there should be no problem with one more of me, right? As for this set of Sun and Moon Divine Needles..."

He paused for a moment, and his tone revealed a sense of wealth and power.

"Since it can't be a master-disciple gift, just treat it as a meeting gift."

How could he not see that the final decision that prompted this young man to choose Mingde Hall was not the rare metals, nor the teaching of the level nine soul masters, nor the so-called level nine soul guides.

It was Jing Hongchen's final promise to improve the treatment of the other students.

It was precisely because he saw something different in Huo Yuhao that Ye Yulin made this decision.

He was calm and composed, and he could remain calm in the face of the free level nine soul guides while attaching great importance to friendship.

The most important thing is that his talent is still the best among the best. Now that this kid has received the guidance of four level nine soul mentors, it is a foregone conclusion. His future achievements are simply unimaginable.

For such a genius, even if he cannot become his disciple, it is a good choice to maintain a good relationship with Huo Yuhao.

As he said this, he looked up at Jing Hongchen with an inexplicable smile.

"Master Hongchen, I think everyone should be able to accept this result, right?"

"... Naturally."

Jing Hongchen also showed a smile on his face and tilted his head to look at Huo Yuhao on the side.

"Lingbing, since Senior Ye values ​​you so much, you should accept it, and my Hongchen Source, as well."

How could he not guess the little thoughts of this old thing? Anyway, as long as Huo Yuhao is from his Mingde Hall, he will welcome him if he is willing to spend resources and energy to train him. Only a fool would refuse.

"Yes, thank you, Master, thank you, Senior Ye."

Looking at Huo Yuhao's honest smile from the heart, Ye Yulin felt that he liked this young man more and more, and smiled and admonished.

"Well, I will come to see you often in the future. If you have any questions about soul guides, you can ask me directly. If you have been wronged in Mingde Hall, or if there are not enough rare metals, you can also tell me and I will help you solve it."

The smile on Jing Hongchen's face froze.

Even now, this old man still doesn't forget to hurt himself!

Give it, give it, the more resources the better. When Ling Bing becomes the son-in-law of my Hongchen family, you will have a chance to cry!

Thinking of this, his face relaxed.

"In this case, Senior Ye and I will not disturb you. Lin Jiayi, you have heard what we just said. You can go to Mingde Hall to make arrangements."

Hearing that the topic suddenly turned to himself, Lin Jiayi trembled all over, and with some difficulty pulled his eyes back from Huo Yuhao. He bowed to Jing Hongchen.

"I know, Hall Master, then you will do it next..."

Jing Hongchen's face showed a sharp look, and his voice was cold.

"I'm going to visit His Majesty. We can't just let the Holy Spirit Church go."

"I'll go too."

Ye Yulin, who had been at odds with Jing Hongchen since he entered the door, rarely agreed with him.

"The Holy Spirit Church should be properly regulated. If we continue to let it go like this, I'm afraid it will really become lawless..."
