"How are you? Are you used to staying in Mingde Hall?" Huo Yuhao pulled up a chair and sat down next to the tall building, asking in an easy-going manner.
Gao Doushou said excitedly: "Don't tell me, the treatment at Mingdetang is really great. I have never seen so many rare metals outside."
It can be seen from his gleaming eyes that the current wealthy life has made him a little forgetful.
"Director Lin is very interested in my blood coagulation carving knife and engraving method. He arranged for me to be a researcher and a specially appointed teacher for the first and second years to demonstrate the list carving knife to the students." Gao Loushou said proudly.
Lin Jiayi's arrangement surprised Huo Yuhao at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be quite appropriate.
Sun and Moon Academy divides grades according to the level of soul masters. The age of admission is much earlier than that of Shrek. There are many children in the lower grades who are only seven or eight years old. Naturally, they cannot only arrange to learn soul guides and combat, but also some cultural knowledge classes and Interest classes are still essential.
There is no shortage of fifth-level soul masters in Mingdetang. It doesn't make any difference whether the building is taller or has one less, but he has a list-engraving knife in his hand.
Although it can only be used by himself, it is a genuine carving knife that makes Lin Jiayi envious. Even in the entire Mingde Hall, only Jing Hongchen and a few top masters have the list of knives.
But it's a pity that Gao Shou, who can use the blood coagulation carving knife, is only a fifth-level soul engineer. After thinking about it, Lin Jiayi, as the teaching director, simply transferred the tall building to teach without having to do anything. He just made soul guides on it and let the young students below look at it with bright eyes.
Huo Yuhao still underestimated the attraction of the list carving knife. I heard that there are many students who go to see the tall buildings. Moreover, the teaching effect seems to be much better than that of other teachers by using the blood coagulation knife to demonstrate.
After all, almost all the engraving knives listed on the list are hidden and tucked away, and this is probably the only one that can be used directly for teaching.
"Brother, thank you so much. I really don't know how to repay you." Gao Dushou said with sincere gratitude.
At this moment, he already regarded Huo Yuhao as a super noble person who changed his destiny. His teaching job was very easy, and he spent almost all his spare time in Mingde Hall.
"No need to repay me, I just need you to do me a small favor." Huo Yuhao casually handed him a communication soul guide.
Gao Dalou took over the communication soul guide, patted his chest and said, "Brother, what do you want me to help you with?"
"I'm a little busy recently and can't come to Mingde Hall every day. You can use this to contact me when the time comes." Huo Yuhao said.
Gao Dushou asked: "When should I contact you?"
"The hall master and other masters have not been in Mingde Hall recently. During this period, if you find any strange movement in Mingde Hall, please contact me as soon as possible." Huo Yuhao solemnly instructed.
"Remember, no matter what happens in Mingde Hall, you will do what I say. Can you do it?"
Gao Dushuo repeatedly promised: "Don't worry, this little thing will be taken care of by me."
"Okay, then you can continue your work."
Huo Yuhao said hello and left the underground base. Before leaving, a hidden space beacon was set up in the underground base to ensure that he could come back as soon as possible.
"You're already here, let's make arrangements before leaving." Huo Yuhao sighed and said to himself.
Ice Emperor asked: "Are you really planning to reconcile the conflict between Du Bushai and Jing Hongchen?"
"I should have done this three years ago." Huo Yuhao said lightly and left Mingde Hall on the flying board.
He hovered over Mingdu for a long time, but his mental detection never found the existence of He Caitou. By dusk, he still found nothing. He had no choice but to return to Mingyue Hotel.
Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel turbulent in his heart. He Caitou's sudden disappearance made him feel extremely uneasy. The near future is like a galloping horse held back by a thin rein, and will soon escape his control and prediction.
Slowly walking into the Holy Spirit Team suite, I heard a cold greeting: "Why did the Holy Son come back at this time?"
Huo Yuhao glanced at Ma Xiaotao lightly: "It has nothing to do with the Fire Phoenix Saint."
He sat on the sofa and said nonchalantly: "Tomorrow's opponent is the Proud Sword Sect, who is nothing to fear. I shouldn't need to take action, right?"
"It's up to you." Ma Xiaotao snorted coldly and went back to her room.
When Geely saw this, he quickly smiled and said: "Lord Holy Son, don't worry, the Proud Sword Sect is definitely not our opponent. It's just that in the subsequent semi-finals, whether it is facing the Noumenon Sect or Shrek, we need to trouble you to take action in person. "
"Yeah." Huo Yuhao responded lightly, "Then I'll come back during the semi-finals."
After saying that, he left the room without staying for a few minutes.
Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng and the Fourth Elder only raised their eyebrows slightly, seemingly dissatisfied, but did not stop him.
The short one-day rest ended quickly, and finally it was time for the much-anticipated quarterfinals.
At dawn, Mingdu was already extremely lively, with many citizens heading towards the competition venue. The knockout competition format has been restored, and the competition will definitely be much more exciting than the reserved round-robin competition.
The weather is excellent today, the bright sunshine is shining on the earth, and a total of eight teams have arrived at the VIP rest area.
Everyone in the Tang Sect team looked more or less anxious. Elder Xuan, who was in front of the Shrek team, still had some anger on his face, and he chewed the chicken drumsticks even harder.
He Caitou still hasn't come back, and I don't know why he went somewhere.
Mr. Xuan was naturally extremely worried about the safety of his students, but he was now certain that He Caitou was definitely not in danger.
Even if he was in danger, he still had a special flare made by the Shrek Supervisory Group, which could be seen by everyone when it was fired. He and other Shrek strongmen would be able to rush over immediately, but he did not choose to ask for help.
Leaving the team without permission, without even saying the reason, showing no organization or discipline in his eyes.
"Where did the cabbage go?" Tang Ya said to herself.
Beibei listened to the side with a solemn expression.
As the de facto captain, Beibei naturally cares about all the team members. In fact, he had already noticed something was wrong.
Since the beginning of the round robin, He Caitou's thoughts seemed to be less and less focused on the Soul Master Competition. He did not actively participate in tactical discussions and often stayed alone in the room, seemingly focusing on the Soul Master Competition.
At first, Beibei thought it was because He Caitou was too tired from practicing, so he deliberately reduced the number of times He Caitou played, but now it seems that this is the reason why He Caitou disappeared.
Wang Dong carefully watched the direction of the Snow Demon Sect team, and carefully observed the girl who was called Qiu'er by others yesterday.
Xiao Xiao asked: "Wang Dong, what are you looking at?"
Wang Dong pointed at Huo Qiu'er from a distance and said quietly: "Xiao Xiao, do you think she is similar to Yu Hao?"
Xiao Xiao observed the words for a while and nodded: "It seems a little bit."
"Isn't that right?" Wang Dong said, "She has never played in Noumenon Sect's previous games. I suspect she is not simple. And I always feel that there is a familiar feeling about that girl."
"Hey, Yuhao."
The sharp-eyed Wang Dong saw Huo Yuhao walking into the rest area and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Yuhao, have you found the cabbage?"
Huo Yuhao frowned and shook his head: "No, at least Brother Caitou is not within the city center."
Seeing the worried look on his face, Beibei asked: "Yuhao, actually among us, you have known Caitou for the longest time. And judging from your reaction yesterday, do you know something?"
Although Beibei didn't know the truth, she still vaguely sensed it.
Huo Yuhao shook his head in silence again, with a look of deep thought on his face.
Team Shrek, Mr. Xuan is making the final arrangements.
He said in a deep voice: "Your opponent later is actually the No. 1 sect in the mainland, the Noumenon Sect."
Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, Ning Tian, Wu Feng and others all nodded solemnly and nervously, already aware of what kind of hard battle would follow.
"Mr. Xuan, don't worry, we will do our best." As the captain, Dai Huabin is not afraid of challenges at all.
Although the strength of the second team is much inferior to that of the first team, they still have two strong soul emperors, Dai Huabin and Xie Huanyue, and the all-soul king team, making them a top team.
Ning Tian also said: "Mr. Xuan, there is also me."
Now a sixth-level soul mentor, Ning Tian has both powerful support and combat capabilities, and is the secret weapon of the Shrek team.
No one would have thought that the soul master who owns the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the number one auxiliary martial soul in the mainland, is actually a powerful soul mentor.
However, Mr. Xuan shook his head and said, "No, Ning Tian, you can't play in this game."
Ning Tian only felt that he had been splashed with cold water. He was stunned for a moment and said in confusion: "Mr. "
"Besides, without me, how could Wu Feng and the others be the opponents of the Noumenon Sect? This is not a round-robin competition. If they lose, they will really be eliminated."
Mr. Xuan explained: "Because you haven't appeared in the previous competition, I will arrange for you to join the Tang Sect team in a while to compete with Beibei and the others. Outsiders will not find out."
Everyone in Shrek couldn't help being stunned when they heard this.
As the daughter of the leader of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, Ning Tian was so smart that she immediately heard the implication of Mr. Give up and then ask me to support Wang Dong and the others?"
Mr. Xuan said attentively: "Well, there is nothing we can do about it. The true strength of the Noumenon Sect has not been exposed in the round-robin competition. I only really learned about their background yesterday."
"They have at least three soul emperors, and even a soul saint!"
"Soul Saint!"
Hearing the words Soul Saint, everyone in Shrek felt as if they were electrocuted.
He broke through the soul saint level before he was twenty years old, and he is still a powerful martial soul. There is no one of the same age who can even compare with him in Shrek Academy.
Mr. Xuan continued: "To defeat such an original sect, Shrek split into two teams has no chance of winning. Only by concentrating our strength can we fight against it."
"Ning Tian, for the sake of the overall situation, you should not show up for the entire first half of the game and join the Tang Sect team in the second half. Moreover, the Tang Sect team now has less than seven members because there are no reserve members, so it needs your help very much."
Xuan Lao Xiao used reason and emotion to persuade Ning Tian from two angles.
Ning Tian fell into silence for a long time before expressing his position in a low voice: "Mr. Xuan, I will follow the arrangement of the college."
"Okay." Seeing Ning Tian agreeing, Mr. Xuan showed a relaxed expression.
If there were no Tang Sect team, Shrek would be able to put together a super luxurious lineup of six soul emperors and level six soul master Ning Tian this year, sweeping all the teams with ease. Even the Noumenon Sect with the Noumenon Soul Saint Dragon Aotian would definitely not be able to do so. opponent.
It's a pity that Shrek overestimated himself and underestimated the other sect teams, and the top combat power was suddenly divided into two teams. Dai Huabin and Xie Huanyue had already appeared in previous games, and it would be difficult to mobilize them. Only Ning Tian, who was always hiding, could do this.
Seeing Mr. Xuan's arrangement, Dai Huabin shouted unconvinced: "Mr. ?”
Mr. Xuan sighed and said with some bitterness: "This is also a last resort for victory. Hua Bin, I hope you think about the overall situation."
"Children, I don't want to give up on any of you, but for the glory of Shrek, I have to do this."
Ning Tian only felt a little overwhelmed, but he still stopped him softly: "Dai Huabin, stop talking, these two teams are fighting for the academy, and I follow the arrangement of the academy."
Dai Huabin gritted his teeth reluctantly and did not continue to refute, but there was still some residual anger on his face.
As the son of the White Tiger Duke, he naturally has the arrogance of a tiger, but now he is told clearly that the team he leads has been abandoned by the academy, and members have to be transferred to support another team. How can he be convinced?
Just imagine, if he succeeds to the position of Duke of White Tiger in the future and leads troops to garrison at the border, but is ordered by the emperor to transfer his elite troops and has no right to give them command to another general, what kind of face would such Duke of White Tiger have? How to convince the remaining soldiers?
But just like Duke White Tiger had to obey the imperial decree, Dai Huabin also had to obey the arrangement of the academy and could only sit in his seat with a bored look on his face.
Ning Tian was just as upset as him.
Wu Feng looked at her with some worry and timidly said: "Ning Tian..."
"I'm fine." Ning Tian smiled pretending to be relaxed.
Wu Feng glanced at Ning Tian complicatedly.
Since coming into contact with the soul guide, Ning Tian has gained a strong sense of confidence. That is the sense of dependence that gradually recedes after oneself becomes stronger.
As the daughter of the leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect, Ning Tian has had a distinguished status since childhood, but she is still essentially an auxiliary soul master, relying on the protection of others. But after becoming a soul master, Ning Tian not only has the ability to protect himself, but also can fight head-on like an offensive soul master.
Now Ning Tian is more independent, and the pride in his heart is fuller and more confident.
In the distance, Huo Yuhao had a panoramic view of the Shrek team's pre-match arrangements.
"Substituting someone midway should be considered cheating, right?" Huo Yuhao frowned and muttered to himself, "Although I think this kind of thing is wrong, why do I feel so accustomed to it that I don't even bother to condemn it?"
"After all, Brother Hao won't report you for the time being."
"Ning Tian, I hope you can insist on making the choice you think is right."
Quietly, the spiritual suggestion has been activated.
