Green hotel, restaurant, a table by the window.
Huo Yuhao was sitting at the table with Gao Daduo, his opponent in the soul guide competition just now.
There were several delicious dishes on the table. Gao Dashou kept putting the dishes into his mouth one by one, but it was easy to tell from the depressed expression that he was eating more than he could chew.
In a corner not far from the restaurant, Huang Zhengmoke, two disciples of Underworld Thunder Douluo, were secretly observing this place.
Merk whispered: "What is the Holy Son doing? Why not just kill him and take away the list carving knife?"
Huang Zheng said: "Be calm and don't be impatient. Lord Saint Son must have his intention in doing this."
The whispers between the two did not escape Huo Yuhao's mental detection.
Gao Dousou made a grimace and asked, "Brother, I still don't know your name?"
"Let me put the name aside for now, why should we know each other before we meet." Huo Yuhao smiled slightly.
Gao Shouhe hesitated and said: "Then...brother, can I make a small request..."
"What request?"
"Is there something missing from just eating the food?" Gao Dashou said with a squeamish expression on his face, "Brother, are you... are you feeling a little thirsty?"
Huo Yuhao nodded.
"Hey, would you like to have a drink?" Gao Shouyu finally expressed his thoughts, feeling a little embarrassed.
Huo Yuhao chuckled: "I don't like drinking myself. Brother Gao can just drink alone. This meal is mine."
After speaking, he snapped his fingers to the side: "Waiter, serve the wine."
"Oh, brother, you are so polite."
Gao Dashou was a heavy drinker. Seeing what Huo Yuhao said, he smiled apologetically: "Brother, you spent a lot of money. Who told me to be so obsessed that I bet all the money on myself to win, and in the end I lost everything? Now I am alone." All the copper soul coins are gone.”
"Oh, wait." Huo Yuhao stretched out a finger and waved it in front of the tall building, "Brother Gao, this wine is not for nothing."
Gao Shou immediately patted his chest and said, "Brother, don't worry, although I don't have money now, you can just tell me what you want."
At this time, the waiter had brought several bottles of good wine. Gao Shou's eyes immediately lit up, and he picked up a bottle and drank directly.
Huo Yuhao asked with some confusion: "Brother Gao is also a fifth-level soul master, right? This is the first time I've seen a soul master who is very strapped for money."
Gao Mansiao drank like water, pouring it directly into his throat, just like drinking water, he finished the bottle in the blink of an eye.
"Hehe, this is a long-standing problem in our family. We are reluctant to sell the soul tools we have made." Gao Dashou said sheepishly, "And whenever I have some spare money, I spend it all on buying rare metals."
"I can't help it. I'm self-taught with this soul tool. I can only buy the rare metals I need from the black market."
When Huo Yuhao heard this, he was quite speechless while appreciating it.
Call him stupid, he can teach himself to become a fifth-level soul master. Call him smart, a dignified fifth-level soul engineer can barely afford to eat.
Huo Yuhao stopped chatting and prepared to get down to business.
"Brother Gao, let me ask you a question."
"Don't ask one question, I can answer a hundred questions."
After Gao Doushan finished a bottle of wine, he felt much more relaxed and was still smacking his lips with full intent.
"When Brother Gao was making the soul guide just now, did he use a list carving knife?" Huo Yuhao asked bluntly, while carefully observing Gao Shou's reaction.
Gao Shou's body was obviously shaken, and the smile on his face froze for a second, but soon returned to normal, and he smiled boldly: "Brother, you have good eyesight, what I have in my hand is the Xue Ning Ke, one of the listed carving knives." knife."
He didn't hide it, but admitted it frankly.
Huo Yuhao was about to ask, but Gao Doushou seemed to have seen through his thoughts and spoke first: "Brother, are you interested in my blood coagulation? Then brother, you are going to be disappointed. This blood coagulation carving knife has been passed down by our family from generation to generation. Only Only the inheritors of our family’s bloodline can use it.”
"Every time I use or activate my ability, it needs to be inspired by my own blood. Outsiders cannot use it even if they get it."
Speaking of this, Gao Shou asked with some curiosity: "Brother, what is the soul bomb you just made? The effect is similar to my blood coagulation."
I see.
Huo Yuhao nodded secretly, shook his head and said, "Brother Gao has misunderstood. I don't want to advise you to bear the pain and part ways with me, but I want to remind you not to be targeted by anyone who wants to."
Gao Shoulou laughed: "Brother, don't tell me. Many people have been eyeing my blood coagulation since I was a child, but after I took the initiative to tell them that this carving knife was the bottom of the list, they all also Not interested anymore.”
"If it weren't for the fact that only I can use blood coagulation, and it's not as good as an ordinary carving knife in other people's hands, I'm afraid it would be ranked in the top thirty on the carving knife list."
Huo Yuhao couldn't help but look at the tall buildings with admiration, and he seemed a bit wise and foolish.
He simply told those who wanted to snatch it openly that it would be useless to snatch his carving knife, and those who were interested were too lazy to keep an eye on it.
Huo Yuhao sighed softly and said with some regret for Gao Shou: "With Brother Gao's talent, why don't you join a force? With the guidance of seniors, you can avoid making some detours in research."
During the conversation, Gao Dalou finished another bottle and wiped his mouth: "I also want to find a big power to join me, but many powers heard that I wanted so much rare metals, otherwise they would not work, so they kicked me out. Out."
His eyes lit up and he looked at Huo Yuhao sincerely.
"Brother, seeing as your ability to make soul guides is so strong, I don't know which force came from it. It should be from the Shengsheng sect, right? How about you introduce me to your place?"
Huo Yuhao raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "Xishui Alliance has been recruiting soul mentors at high prices. Hasn't Brother Gao considered it?"
Gao Shou quickly shrank his neck and waved his hands: "No, no, I still think I haven't lived enough, so let's forget about the Xishui Alliance."
Huo Yuhao put on an easy-going look and said, "In that case, how about I recommend a place for you."
Gao Shou couldn't wait to ask: "Where?"
"Mingde Hall."
Huo Yuhao finally revealed his purpose.
Under his hint, the conversation developed in the direction he wanted.
Hearing the words Mingde Hall, Gao Doushou was stunned for a moment, and then said in a somewhat speechless manner: "Mingde Hall? Brother, are you kidding me? How could I be qualified to enter Mingde Hall? I am not the Soul Master of the Sun and Moon Royal Family. Students of the academy.”
Huo Yuhao waved his hand towards him: "Brother Gao, don't be surprised. The members of Mingde Hall are not only students from Sun Moon College, but also recruit from society regularly. As long as capable senior soul masters pass the assessment, they can obtain the qualifications." ."
"But I'm only a fifth-level soul engineer." Gao Shou was still not confident.
Mingde Hall is the holy land of soul masters. Is he really qualified to enter?
"Level 5 is enough. With your ranking and engraving knife, passing the assessment won't be a problem."
Seeing that Gao Dalou was still hesitating, Huo Yuhao finally said seductively: "Every soul master in Mingde Hall will have a certain quota of free rare metals every month. Brother Gao, do you really not want to consider it?"
"And even if you fail, you have nothing to lose, so why not give it a try?"
Gao Dalou really didn't expect that he, a soul master with a wild background, would have the opportunity to enter Mingde Hall, the holy place in the world of soul masters.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and asked: "Brother, how do I take the Mingde Hall assessment?"
Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Brother Gao, let's do this. I'll write you a letter of recommendation."
He took a piece of paper and a pen, wrote a few paragraphs, put it in an envelope and handed it to Gao Shou.
"Take this letter of recommendation and go to Sun Moon College to find Lin Jiayi, the dean of students. Apart from Jing Hongchen, he is the one in charge of administration."
"Then he will arrange an assessment for you. If you can successfully pass the assessment, you can become a member of Mingde Hall."
Gao Shou received the envelope and was extremely excited.
He stood up, raised a bottle of wine, and didn't know what to say. After a long time, he felt a little embarrassed and said, "Brother, I really don't know how to repay you. I...I did it."
After speaking, he drank the wine in the bottle.
Huo Yuhao smiled, stood up, and said, "Brother Gao, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you. I will go to Mingde Hall to find you after the Soul Master Competition."
He didn't stay long, said hello and left.
Gao Duoshan sat at the table and couldn't believe what he had experienced today.
Although he lost miserably in the soul mentor competition and lost all his belongings, he did not expect that his opponent turned out to be a nobleman from Mingde Hall, and he recommended himself to participate in the assessment of Mingde Hall.
A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise.
Gao Shou took the remaining bottles of wine from the table and drank one bottle after another.
When Huo Yuhao walked out of the restaurant, Huang Zhengmok immediately greeted him.
Huang Zheng said: "Lord Shengzi, have you taken a fancy to that knife? We will take action when he leaves the hotel."
Huo Yuhao snorted coldly: "You don't even know the details of the other party, so you just want to take action?"
Huang Zheng said respectfully: "I don't know what details he has. Please tell me, Holy Son."
Huo Yuhao said leisurely: "The name of his carving knife is Xue Ning. It's useless to take it away."
"It turned out to be the blood coagulation of the Gao family? Wasn't the Gao family destroyed?" Merk said in surprise. Looking at him, he seemed to understand what was going on. "It's a pity, Lord Holy Son, the blood coagulation carving knife only has Only the Gao family can use it.”
Could it be that the Xishui Alliance was destroyed?
Huo Yuhao always felt that there was some kind of connection between the two, but he did not ask in detail, and said: "Moreover, he is still from Mingde Hall, so if he attacks people from Mingde Hall, even Xishui Alliance can't afford it, right? "
Both Huang Zheng and Huang Zheng were stunned, and then looked at Huo Yuhao with admiration: "Master Shengzi is really cautious in doing things. If it were the two of us, I'm afraid we would have offended Mingdetang for a useless treasure."
"Hmph, be careful next time, I'm leaving first."
With that said, Huo Yuhao left Qingse Hotel.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, not only did I help others resolve the crisis, but I also solved the problem of employment." Ice Emperor's emotional voice sounded in his ears.
Huo Yuhao said calmly: "It's just a little effort, and if you ask someone to help, you have to pay some errand fees."
While talking to himself, Huo Yuhao showed a troubled look on his face.
An inexplicable sense of uneasiness lingered in his heart, and the power of fate seemed to be warning him something.
…
While the competition in the Xishui League division is in full swing, the other two divisions are also fiercely fighting.
Pingfanmeng, Qingxia Hotel, Rose Hall.
Tonight, the most exciting competition against soul guides will be held here.
The area of Rose Hall is not inferior to that of the Golden Hall of Qingse Hotel. There are far fewer contestants in the Ordinary League than in the Xishui League, and their level is generally lower. However, the number of spectators and gambling money are several times that of the Xishui League. .
Nothing but because all contestants in the Ordinary League must be female.
The number of people is small, and today the Ordinary League will directly decide the three contestants sent to participate in the finals. The charming leader Shangguan Wei'er personally served as the host and referee of the finals.
"The following is the final competition to determine the qualifications of the last three. Players No. 58 and No. 92 have already entered the venue. Please place your bets as soon as possible."
Shangguan Weier gave a clever smile and gave a final reminder to the countless glaring spectators. At the same time, she glanced appreciatively at Huo Qiu'er in the corner of the battle area.
As expected, she was right about this mysterious player. He was definitely the most powerful player in the Ordinary League division of this competition, not even inferior to the one used against the Xishui League.
Countless gambling funds poured into the handicap, and Huo Qiuer naturally won.
In the previous matches against soul guides, Huo Qiuer showed a very domineering style of play.
In addition to the soul guide he made himself, he also used his strong physical fitness to wipe out all the opponents in front of him.
The use of other soul tools and soul skills is not allowed in the competition against soul guides, but there are no restrictions on physical confrontation. Although Huo Qiuer is only a fourth-level soul guide, she has used her own soul guide in the previous competitions against soul guides. With the weapons disabled, he defeated several fifth-level soul masters with his bare hands.
Those are soul kings equipped with a level five attack soul guide!
With her powerful strength and dashing heroic appearance, Soul Guide No. 92 ignited everyone's passion. As the betting pool became deeper and deeper, her odds were also getting lower and lower, even reaching an extremely low level of one to one. magnification.
Number 58 was a girl in a blue skirt. She looked at Huo Qiu'er and said with some jealousy: "Sister, it's really enviable that so many men are willing to spend money on you."
Huo Qiuer frowned and said calmly: "It's just an investment."
"Sister, you are very strong, please be merciful later." The girl in the blue dress pretended to be coquettish.
"Where did the clamp come from?"
Huo Qiu'er muttered and ignored her, waiting for Shangguan Weier to announce the start of the game.
"Okay, distinguished guests, please stop placing bets." Shangguan Weier's voice suddenly became stronger, "The game begins."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Qiuer's foot suddenly stepped down, turning into a stream of arrows and shooting at the girl in the blue skirt.
At the same time, a level four soul cannon appeared on her right arm.
"So fast." The girl in the blue dress was shocked.
She was trained by the Ordinary League and followed the route of agile attack, but at this moment, the speed she was proud of was dwarfed by Huo Qiuer's.
When she was watching the battle before, she didn't feel that it was a real head-on confrontation before she felt the tremendous pressure.
The girl in the blue skirt gritted her teeth, looked at Huo Qiu'er who was attacking from the front with some unwillingness and resentment, and held a blue dagger in her hand.
She would not willingly let an outsider take away what belongs to her. These top three spots were originally reserved for her.
What's more, underground forces like the Ordinary League will not show mercy to losers.
