"Hello, Miss Ye."
Since it was Shangguan Wei'er who introduced him, Huo Yuhao also greeted Ye Guyi politely, and Ye Guyi, who was not good at speaking at first sight, also nodded to Huo Yuhao for Shangguan Wei'er's sake. .
Huo Yuhao didn't have any unnecessary thoughts about Ye Guyi's indifference. Everyone's personality was different. Even if she wasn't enthusiastic about him, there was nothing to blame.
If my destiny hadn't changed so much, my character wouldn't be much different from that of Ye Guyi, right?
Huo Yuhao thought of his past from today's Ye Guyi, and smiled softly in his heart. Fortunately, he did not become like this, and his current appearance is quite good.
"This is Lan Ruoruo, who is also a sixth-level soul engineer. I think the ones sent by the other two companies should be similar."
Shangguan Weier saw that Huo Yuhao was not angry because of Ye Guyi's attitude, and she relaxed in her heart. This girl Guyi is good at everything, but she is too stubborn. She will not treat anyone except herself. If this continues, Maybe one day you will suffer a big loss.
But as long as she follows him for a day, he will not let her suffer a day. Who told him to fall in love with her and have to train her? He has devoted too much effort to this girl.
"Well, Leader Shangguan is interested. Miss Lan, you may as well."
Huo Yuhao also greeted Lan Ruoruo kindly.
Huo Yuhao knew that Shangguan Weier still coveted the champion of the Soul Master Elite Competition. After all, they had invested a lot of resources and they had to take it back.
Not to mention anything else, it was the ninth-level soul master that the three of them had spent a lot of money to get. Moreover, this ninth-level soul master was actually second to none. The most important thing was, who should get those rare metal resources? Control?
This is a huge amount of income. If the Ordinary League can absorb it, it will be able to skyrocket in a short time. Shangguan Wei'er must have wanted to take advantage of Huo Yuhao's shareholder style, even if her original intention was not like this, but things have developed In the current situation, wouldn’t it be a waste if we don’t borrow it?
Although Shangguan Weier concealed it well, Huo Yuhao could still detect some facts from her eyes, but Huo Yuhao did not choose to expose it.
There's nothing to expose in this kind of thing. You can't join in yourself, but give others the last place, right?
Although we have to be cautious, we still have to take what needs to be taken. It is not a very honorable thing to hide too much clumsiness. The Xishui Alliance should not be so embarrassed that they will go into a rage and kill everyone just because of a game. After all, it is not yet The best time to riot.
"By the way, Brother Huo, there is one more thing I forgot to tell you. You should be familiar with the referee for tonight's game."
It was still time for the audience to enter, and there was still a little time before the game started, so they still had some time to chat. Shangguan Weier suddenly smiled mysteriously.
"Oh? Who is it?"
Huo Yuhao looked at Shangguan Weier's slightly artificial and cute expression and couldn't help but want to laugh. Shangguan Weier must be quite old to be able to make such an expression.
"Ye Yulin, Elder Ye."
Shangguan Weier covered her mouth and snickered.
"What?"
Huo Yuhao was very surprised that such a soul mentor competition organized by the underground forces in Mingdu could invite a Zhuguo master like Ye Yulin?
"Yes, it is indeed Elder Ye Yulin. The three major forces paid a huge price to bring him out of the mountain. The last time he was in such a hurry, he actually forgot to tell you such a big thing."
Shangguan Weier said with a smile. The last time she was too busy telling Huo Yuhao about the Xishui Alliance, she indeed forgot to mention it.
Although he didn't know what kind of benefits the three major forces used to impress Ye Yulin, Huo Yuhao immediately let go of his worries when he heard that the referee was Ye Yulin. It was now easier to handle.
Huo Yuhao originally didn't think that the Holy Spirit Sect would cause trouble at this time, but with Ye Yulin here, Huo Yuhao felt more confident.
"You are quite capable."
Huo Yuhao smiled sincerely. When he was planning to participate in this operation, he was under tremendous pressure. Now he can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps this is why the senior officials of the Sun and Moon Empire agreed with him to take the risk to carry out the operation. The reason for this mission is that there is enough power here to ensure Huo Yuhao's safety.
"Inviting Mr. Ye to come out is not the credit of any one family. All three of us paid a huge price to achieve this. Moreover, the final reward of the competition, the ninth-level soul tool, was also made by Mr. Ye. The old famous soul guide, the Sun and Moon Needle."
Shangguan Wei'er had already told Huo Yuhao that the Sun and Moon Needle would be the final reward for the competition. However, Huo Yuhao never thought that Ye Yulin would also become the referee of the competition.
As Mr. Ye's famous soul tool, the Sun Moon Needle's power has been proven in actual combat for many years. Needless to say, even Huo Yuhao, who was used to seeing level 9 soul tools in Mingde Hall, didn't dare to say that he didn't know how to do it. Get excited about this thing.
"In this case, in this game, I might make some efforts beyond what is necessary. After all, Mr. Ye is here, so I can have less worries." Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
"Well, I think the Xishui League didn't want to cause trouble at this time, otherwise they wouldn't have agreed to Ye Laolai being the referee. The Xishui League actually controls many industries in Mingdu, and they proposed to hold this competition. The probability is that they are here for the championship, they want to get more resources from Mingdu, and they even want to take the Sun and Moon Divine Needle that the three of us produced together."
After Shangguan Weier knew that the evil soul master was controlling the Xishui Alliance, she had been very wary of the Xishui Alliance, because once their plan succeeded, the biggest sacrifice would be the interests of the other two families.
Moreover, when Xi Shui Alliance proposed to choose Ye Yulin, it may not have been because of the idea of the Sun and Moon Divine Needle. After all, you can't buy this thing directly from Ye Yulin, so you have to get it in this serious way. Ye Yulin is also more accepting.
"Leader, please rest assured, we will definitely win the championship and prevent the Xishui Alliance's conspiracy from succeeding!"
Before Huo Yuhao could speak, Lan Ruoruo, one of Shangguan Weier's subordinates, took the lead to express his position.
"With you here, I feel more at ease."
Shangguan Weier said confidently. When she spoke, her eyes were more on Ye Guyi. Huo Yuhao noticed this and was more curious about Ye Guyi's abilities.
"Okay, I'm almost ready. Now it's time for me to repeat the rules to you."
Shangguan Weier vaguely withdrew her gaze and focused on Huo Yuhao again.
In fact, Huo Yuhao had not had much communication with her, otherwise Shangguan Wei'er would not have just told Huo Yuhao that the referee was Ye Yulin. This had not been confirmed when Shangguan Wei'er first met Huo Yuhao, so Shangguan Wei'er also It is impossible to tell Huo Yuhao the exact information.
"Please speak, Leader Shangguan." Huo Yuhao said seriously.
"The rules are not complicated. They are divided into two stages. The first stage is to make a soul guide. Only those who make a soul guide above level six can be qualified to participate in the second round of the competition. If you fail in the first round, Your teammates can only form a team of two to advance to the next round, and they will face a huge disadvantage by then."
"Of course, in order to ensure victory, it is impossible for the three major chambers of commerce to send a soul engineer who is not proficient in making level 6 soul guides. In other words, your opponents are basically all level 6 soul engineers or above. If It is not impossible for the other party to collect a seventh-level soul engineer."
"Then comes the second stage. In the second stage, players need to use the soul guides made in the first stage to attack each other. In the end, the party standing on the field wins. The championship belongs to the chamber of commerce they represent. It is worth mentioning that in the second stage The stage does not limit the use of soul guides only, you can use your own abilities, which adds to the uncertainty of the game."
When Shangguan Weier talked about using her abilities, she glanced at Ye Guyi and then continued.
"This is indeed an interesting rule. Not just a simple soul engineer can pass the test. However, if my guess is correct, this must be the rule proposed by the Xishui Alliance, right?"
Huo Yuhao noticed Shangguan Weier's little move, but he did not choose to expose it.
"Yes, I didn't know they were evil soul masters at the time, so I agreed in a daze."
Shangguan Weier is a little embarrassed. This rule is simply customized for evil soul masters, because only they can benefit from this rule in the Sun and Moon Empire. Of course, the premise is that Huo Yuhao is not considered.
"It's okay if you agree. This will save you a lot of trouble."
Huo Yuhao nodded, not paying much attention to this matter.
"There are no special precautions. Come on."
Shangguan Weier said with a sweet smile on her face after seeing that Huo Yuhao was not stressed.
After Shangguan Weier said this, she just heard the host's voice announcing the referee's entry. Upon hearing this voice, Huo Yuhao quietly lifted the door curtain and looked at the situation inside.
Following the instructions of the lights, Huo Yuhao saw Ye Yulin slowly walking onto the stage. During the walk, Ye Yulin also looked at the resting place of the Ordinary League, and looked at Huo Yuhao, with a faint look in the corner of his eyes. There was a faint smile. Huo Yuhao smiled knowingly after seeing it, his safety was guaranteed today.
After Ye Yulin stepped onto the stage, his expression was not serious, but calm and nonchalant. This expression made many people dissatisfied, but it felt normal.
Because no famous ninth-level soul master is willing to participate in such an occasion, it is too embarrassing. This is the normal behavior of Ye Yulin participating in this event because of huge profits.
This was how Ye Yulin showed himself in front of everyone, but in fact, he was very nervous because his mission today was to ensure Huo Yuhao's safety in the evil soul master's lair.
The pressure was still very high, and there was no room for Ye Yulin to be careless.
"Quiet, let's invite the contestants to enter. The competition is about to begin."
After Ye Yulin came up, he announced the start of the game without any nonsense.
After hearing Ye Yulin's greeting, the contestants sent by the three major chambers of commerce came out one after another. They first came to Ye Yulin and said hello to the audience. This is the rule of the underground competition.
This is not a national team game, it needs to be profitable. The audience has made huge profits on you, so you have to show off to the audience at least, right?
As the nine people gradually gathered, Huo Yuhao also felt the powerful aura from them. Sure enough, as Shangguan Wei'er said, there was no weak person who could be sent to compete. They all had ideas about the final champion.
While Huo Yuhao was observing them, Huo Yuhao unexpectedly discovered a very familiar aura among the Xishui League's team.
"It turns out it's you. It seems Shrek Academy also wants to get involved. Is it the Sun-Moon Divine Needle? That shouldn't be right. The Xishui Alliance also wants this thing, so it's impossible to give it to you. The target is those rare metals. "
Huo Yuhao looked at the back and thought jokingly.
What Huo Yuhao saw was none other than the sixth-level soul engineer from Shrek Academy, He Caitou, standing in the Xishui League's representative team to represent them in the competition.
Although he had put on some disguise, it was useless in front of Huo Yuhao's mental detection.
He Caitou is indeed qualified to represent a certain major force in the competition. His soul mentor cultivation is very strong. He probably wants to take advantage of this trend to make some money and rare metals. Money Shrek is okay, Shrek City The annual income is enough for their expenses, but rare metals are in short supply everywhere, and Shrek can't be tempted.
In addition to the Sun and Moon Divine Needle, the final prize of the competition also included a large amount of rare metals paid by the three major chambers of commerce. However, this thing was automatically ignored by Huo Yuhao in front of the Sun and Moon Divine Needle. The value was too far apart!
However, it is considered a large "treasure" in front of ordinary forces. Ordinary forces cannot take it out. Only the three major forces have such courage.
Of course, Huo Yuhao also valued it. Although he was not short of rare metals, he would not ignore so many rare metals.
It seems that he cannot be allowed to take away these things today. Shrek getting these rare metals is not a good thing for the Sun and Moon Empire.
Perhaps sensing Huo Yuhao's gaze, he turned back to look at Huo Yuhao like Caitou, but he didn't find any clues. Huo Yuhao's disguise skills were not comparable to Caitou. If he could see through it, Huo Yuhao wouldn't have to continue today. Competition.
After He Caitou looked at Huo Yuhao for a while, he turned his head again. He found nothing.
Except for He Caitou, Huo Yuhao didn't recognize anyone else. He glanced around and looked away. Even He Caitou didn't have anything worth paying attention to. Huo Yuhao was just surprised at first. Huo Yuhao poses no threat.
"Contestants please take your seats."
After Ye Yulin showed the contestants to the audience for a while, he announced the start of the competition under Huo Yuhao's helpless eyes. It felt really uncomfortable to be treated as a display.
Huo Yuhao had locked his position long ago. After Ye Yulin gave the order, Huo Yuhao couldn't wait to walk over. Let's start the competition quickly. It's better than being a monkey. The feeling of the Soul Master Competition is completely different from today's Soul Tutor Competition.
