Chapter 132 Huo Yuhao and Dai Hao's Meeting
After Dai Hao finished speaking with the enigmatic Long Xiaoyao, he immediately summoned the two brothers, Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin.
As a formal member of the Shrek team, Dai Yueheng is obligated to participate in this competition.
The Star Luo Empire and Shrek Academy are now allies, sharing both prosperity and adversity.
Therefore, Shrek Academy absolutely cannot afford any problems in this competition.
Dai Huabin participated in the competition as one of the seven reserve team members.
Although it was said to be seven team members, in the mind of the team leader, Douluo Long Xiaoyao, the reserve team could only be considered as five and a half people.
Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, He Caitou, Jiang Nannan, Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and Wang Dong are the seven members of Shrek Team's reserve team.
Long Xiaoyao looks down on Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and Wang Dong.
Even now that Shrek Academy is receiving full assistance from the Star Luo Empire, it won't change his opinion.
In Long Xiaoyao's mind, the battlefield for these three is not this session, but the next session.
Currently, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu's main role is to work together to unleash the Netherworld White Tiger.
In Long Xiaoyao's battle plan for Shrek Academy, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu could only be brought onto the stage together.
Therefore, they together can be considered as one person.
Although Wang Dong possesses twin martial souls, her current primary martial soul is not the Clear Sky Hammer, but the Goddess of Light Butterfly.
In Long Xiaoyao's eyes, the three soul skills of the Goddess of Light Butterfly were considered outstanding soul skills in all previous competitions.
However, in this tournament, it would be difficult for them to compete with any decent teams.
If Xuanzi hadn't said that Shrek Academy would cooperate with Haotian Fort in the future, and therefore Wang Dong had to be brought in to gain prestige, Long Xiaoyao would never have accepted Wang Dong at this stage.
After all, the Demon Emperor has already secretly met with Long Xiaoyao, saying that he can join Shrek Academy when the time is right.
Since Ye Xishui has decided to use Long Xiaoyao, Yan Shaozhe, and the Demon Emperor to undermine Shrek Academy, no matter how reluctant Long Xiaoyao is to part with Mu En, he will not refuse Ye Xishui's request.
In the future, the only entity that can cooperate with Haotianbao is the Holy Spirit Cult, which is disguised as Shrek Academy.
Therefore, Long Xiaoyao also attaches great importance to this Soul Master Competition.
The success or failure of the Shrek team is crucial to whether Ye Xishui's grand plan can proceed smoothly.
For this reason, Long Xiaoyao has been training the Shrek team despite his injuries.
He dared not accept the Golden Tree's treatment, fearing that the Golden Tree would detect the abnormality in his aura from years of contact with evil spirit masters.
If possible, it's best to avoid using the Demon Emperor, that deep-sea demon whale, otherwise there will be too many variables that Long Xiaoyao cannot control.
After arriving at an empty room, Dai Hao asked seriously, "Is there really no problem with your Dean Long's identity?"
Before Dai Huabin could speak, Dai Yueheng answered first.
This caused Dai Huabin to reveal his dissatisfaction.
Dai Yueheng quickly recounted everything Long Xiaoyao had done since joining Shrek Academy to Dai Hao, giving Dai Huabin no chance to interrupt.
Dai Huabin's talent is already superior to his, and in the upcoming upheaval, he is very likely to receive strong support from Dai Hao.
If Dai Yueheng doesn't seize every opportunity to increase his standing in Dai Hao's heart, then his future position as Duke of the White Tiger will be in jeopardy.
It will probably fall into the hands of my younger brother.
Dai Huabin had always been dissatisfied with Dai Yueheng's status as the eldest son of the legitimate wife, and Dai Yueheng had some suspicions about this.
If Dai Huabin were to become the Duke of Baihu, Dai Yueheng feared that he would follow in the footsteps of the losers of the Baihu Dynasty.
"Father," Dai Yueheng said solemnly, "I have told you everything that happened after Dean Long joined Shrek Academy."
"Ma Xiaotao has now become a Soul Saint, and Gongyang Mo has become a Level 61 Soul Emperor."
"Even Chen Zifeng has become a quasi-Soul Emperor after taking pills. He is now being taken by Dean Xian Lin'er to hunt souls and will be able to return before the finals."
"With one Soul Saint, three Soul Emperors, and three Soul Kings, the Shrek Academy team has absolutely no problem winning the championship."
"This is all thanks to Dean Long's special training."
According to Dai Yueheng, only the elders of the Sea God Pavilion knew about Long Xiaoyao's background; they, as students, were not qualified to know.
However, since Mu En has already appointed Long Xiaoyao as the honorary dean, the gossip circulating in Xingluo City is likely just rumors.
Upon hearing this, Dai Hao felt somewhat relieved.
He said, "Now that we can confirm it's a rumor, once the Soul Master Competition begins, you should fully cooperate with Dean Long to clarify the situation."
"If Shrek Academy cannot explain this matter clearly, the Star Luo Empire will have no choice but to separate from it, which will lead to the complete loss of balance between the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Sun Moon Empire."
"Just in case, and I mean just in case. If the situation really gets out of control, you two brothers must prioritize your own safety and absolutely must not fight amongst yourselves."
Dai Yueheng readily agreed: "Father, I understand."
Dai Huabin hadn't quite grasped the intricacies of the matter before.
Over the years, Dai Hao had neglected to manage him, and coupled with his outstanding talent and the Duchess's doting, he developed an arrogant and domineering personality.
He said directly, "Father, these mere rumors will surely be disproven on their own."
"In this competition, we will definitely defeat Di'ao Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and defend our championship title once again."
"Especially my Netherworld White Tiger and Zhu Lu's will definitely restore the glory of the Dai family."
When Dai Huabin mentioned the Netherworld White Tiger in front of Dai Hao, he was implying that Dai Yueheng would not be able to hold onto the position of Duke of White Tiger if he inherited it.
Dai Hao gave Dai Huabin a meaningful look.
"Key Balance".
Dai Hao looked at Dai Yueheng standing to the side and said, "I can't stay here long. If you have time, please take care of Hua Bin."
In Dai Yueheng's view, Dai Hao's move was to make him manage Dai Huabin more closely, so as to prevent his arrogant personality from causing trouble in the competition.
But to Dai Huabin, Dai Hao's words implied that Dai Yueheng was the future heir to the White Tiger Duke.
As for Dai Hao himself, his purpose in saying this was simply to ask the Dai brothers, Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin, to look out for him during the competition.
He understood the meaning behind Dai Huabin's last sentence.
Dai Hao was simply running away from the truth that Dai Huabin had mentioned.
He was a fierce marshal on the battlefield, but a complete coward when it came to his family.
The current situation on the mainland makes him dare not look directly at Dai Huabin's ambitions.
Because of Dai Huabin's talent and the support of the Zhu family, he surpassed Dai Yueheng by a large margin, both innately and through his own efforts.
Therefore, Dai Hao could only leave behind a vague instruction, hoping that the two Dai brothers would understand his meaning, and then he hurriedly turned and left, as if this would avoid future conflicts.
Dai Hao hurriedly crossed the corridor, but he had only been a hundred meters away from the Star Emperor Hotel when he suddenly saw the group of Di'ao Academy students "coincidentally" returning to the Star Emperor Hotel.
In an instant, an indescribable anger welled up in Dai Hao's heart.
The Heavenly Soul Empire not only killed Xuanji Douluo, but also used this incident to spread rumors in Star Luo City, which Dai Hao could not tolerate.
Huo Yuhao looked at Dai Hao, who was barely suppressing his anger, and couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
"Dai Hao, your good days are just beginning."
However, Huo Yuhao remained calm and met Dai Hao's gaze with composure: "Duke White Tiger, I've heard so much about you."
Huo Yuhao is now able to suppress his hatred for Dai Hao very well, without letting anyone see through his disguise.
"The Azure Dragon Earl of the Heavenly Soul Empire," Dai Hao replied coldly, "indeed young and promising."
Seeing that she had finally caught up with Dai Hao at the entrance of the Star Emperor Hotel, Nan Qiuqiu immediately said, "Is this Dai Hao?"
"The adopted son of that traitorous Douluo?"
It would have been better if she hadn't said that.
Upon hearing this, Dai Hao's face instantly darkened.
"Little girl, don't insult the elder powerhouses of my Star Luo."
Nan Qiuqiu was not afraid at all. Instead, she raised her chin and pretended to be puzzled, saying, "Duke White Tiger, I heard this from the residents of Xingluo City."
"Oh dear, could there be some misunderstanding?"
Dai Hao's fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
Nan Shuishui and the deputy sect leader of Tianlongmen exchanged a glance and took a step forward simultaneously.
Because Yu Longtu is the lord of Dragon City, he cannot leave Dragon City for an extended period of time.
Therefore, for this Soul Master Competition, the Dragon City side could only temporarily send Nan Shuishui and Yu Longmo, the deputy sect leader of the Heavenly Dragon Gate, to lead the disciples of both the Heavenly and Earthly Dragon Gates to watch the competition between the two young sect leaders.
