Douluo: Reborn as a Dragon, I am the Lord of Soul Beasts

Chapter 82 War
Huo Yuhao's heart tightened, knowing that this topic was not simple, but he still answered respectfully: "Senior, the research is progressing smoothly. The first hundred-year spirit ring has been successfully manufactured and has been experimented on some students."

Zi Ji nodded, with a complicated look in her eyes, "Well, that sounds good. But, Yuhao, during the experiment, safety is always the most important thing. Don't forget that you are a soul master. How is your recent training? Have you made any progress? Come on, let's practice?"

Huo Yuhao quickly replied: “Senior, we have other things to do today, why don’t you just let us go.”

Zi Ji nodded slightly with satisfaction, turned to He Cai Tou and said, "You guys continue to be busy, don't delay the experiment because of us."

He Caitou quickly responded: "Yes, senior, then we won't bother you anymore."

After Zi Ji and Ying Qian walked away, Huo Yuhao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said softly to He Cai Tou, “Second Senior Brother, couldn’t you have told me in advance?”

He Caitou spread his hands helplessly, "I didn't expect to meet them either."

After the two of them left, Ying Qian said to Zi Ji helplessly, "Sister Zi, why do you always bully them?"

After the two left, Ying Qian said to Zi Ji helplessly, "Sister Zi, why do you always bully them?"

Zi Ji chuckled with a sly look in her eyes, "I'm not bullying them, I just think they're interesting. Especially that little Yuhao, he's very brave, but very cautious."

Ying Qian shook his head. "After all, they are still young and need some experience. If you scare them like this, it will easily undermine their confidence."

Zi Ji raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, "Don't worry, I know what to do. Besides, look at the two of them, although they are nervous, they handled it pretty well. Young people like this will have the potential to achieve great things in the future."

Ying Qian sighed helplessly, "You are always so playful. However, Yuhao is indeed a talented person with great potential. It's just that he has a heavy burden on his shoulders now, so we have to give him more time and space."

Zi Ji nodded, "I know, I know. Don't worry, I won't really make things difficult for them."

Ying Qian smiled slightly and turned to look at Huo Yuhao and He Caitou in the distance. "Yuhao still needs some time. It's a pity that he is a disciple of Shrek Academy. But fortunately it's not too late. Those people in the God Realm should not have noticed him yet."

Zi Ji suddenly remembered something and turned to ask, "By the way, is the three-eyed monster you mentioned just now really a mythical beast?"

Ying Qian nodded, his expression becoming serious. "Yes, according to the Silver Dragon King, it should be the Slanted Eyed Saint King. If it is really him, then this attack is not the work of an ordinary force. I am afraid there is a bigger conspiracy behind it."

A cold light flashed in Ziji's eyes. "It seems that we must be more vigilant. This matter is far more complicated than we imagined."

Ying Qian nodded in agreement, "Yes! By the way, how is your investigation going in the Xingluo Empire? The White Tiger Duke, Dai Hao."

Zi Ji frowned, thought for a moment and then said, "Dai Hao is indeed a powerful figure, one of the military gods of the Xing Luo Empire, and the title of Duke of White Tiger is not in vain. He has a very high prestige in the army and controls the elite troops of the Xing Luo Empire."

Ying Qian waved his hand disapprovingly, "These are irrelevant. The main thing is his strength, whether there is any change. The Silver Dragon King once told me that even if the Slant Eyed Saint King wanted to come down, he would descend in the form of bloodline as the holder of the White Tiger Martial Spirit."

Zi Ji nodded, "I've noticed that, too. Dai Hao's strength has indeed been improving, especially in recent years. His spirit power has broken through to level ninety-six and he has become a Titled Douluo. His White Tiger spirit seems to have become purer and more powerful. There are even rumors that he has developed a third eye during battle."

Ying Qian's eyes flashed with excitement. "The third eye... It seems that the legend of the Slanted Eyed Saint King is not groundless. If Dai Hao is really the heir of the Slanted Eyed Saint King's bloodline, then I am a little interested in meeting him."

Zi Ji frowned slightly, "Do you want to go to the Xingluo Empire in person? Wouldn't that be too risky? If Dai Hao is really the heir of the bloodline of the Slanted Eyed Saint King, his strength would probably be even more unpredictable."

Ying Qian chuckled, "Of course there are risks, but it is precisely because of this that it is more worthwhile to explore. Instead of passively waiting, it is better to take the initiative and obtain more information. Besides, I am not alone in this deep place."

Zi Ji nodded, understanding Ying Qian's intention. "In that case, I will help you arrange everything and ensure your safety. We must also be fully prepared in case of any unexpected situation."

Ying Qian nodded gratefully, "Okay, then I'll get ready and leave for the Xing Luo Empire early tomorrow morning."

On the other side, Huo Yuhao, with the help of He Caitou, finally arrived at the gate of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

“I say, Second Brother, why are you so anxious to pull me out?” Huo Yuhao asked in confusion.

Just as Huo Yuhao was about to go back, a ball of extremely strong golden light mixed with dazzling blue exploded like fireworks, instantly transforming into countless light blades that flew across the sky, abruptly stopping Huo Yuhao who was about to go back.

Huo Yuhao was stunned. The scene in front of him left him dumbfounded. He looked at He Caitou, his eyes full of confusion and shock.

“Second Brother, what are you doing…” Huo Yuhao asked, his voice full of surprise.

He Caitou showed a mysterious smile, "Junior brother, I didn't pull you out casually."

The gorgeous blue-gold light flickered in the air, and under the sunlight, it was even more gorgeous. His medium-length pink-blue hair was scattered on his shoulders. Although he could only see the side of his handsome and breathtaking face, Huo Yuhao could also feel the coldness in his emotions at that moment.

A pair of blue wings stretched out behind the back, and the golden light patterns on them shone with a faint halo, as if small suns were embedded in the wings. One yellow, two purple, two black, five soul rings shine brightly.

He has a pair of blue wings with golden stripes and such a handsome face. He also resisted the pursuit for Huo Yuhao. Yes, he is the surprise that He Caitou mentioned.

"Wang Dong." Huo Yuhao finally came out of his daze. He felt his brain was in a mess, and his vision became blurry due to the sudden surge of moisture.

He increased his speed to the limit without using the soul propulsion device, rushed up and flew up, hugging his good brother who came from afar to visit him.

Wang Dong also smiled and opened his arms to welcome Huo Yuhao's hug. The two hugged each other tightly. This long-awaited reunion made both of them feel extremely excited and moved. "Long time no see, Yuhao." Wang Dong said softly, his voice full of warmth and nostalgia.

"Yes, long time no see, Wang Dong." Huo Yuhao answered with a sob, tears in his eyes could not help but fall.

He Caitou stood aside and watched this scene with a satisfied smile on his face. He knew that this arrangement made Huo Yuhao very happy and it also gave him the motivation to move forward.

Huo Yuhao was somewhat stunned by Wang Dong's sudden words, but then he revealed a helpless smile and said softly: "Wang Dong, I didn't know it was you. It's all Second Senior Brother's fault for not making it clear in advance. You don't know how much I missed you during this period."

When Wang Dong heard this, a smile gradually appeared on his face, which had been pretending to be angry, and he snorted, "Forget it, since you are so sincere, I will forgive you this time."

He Caitou smiled and shook his head, "You two brothers are really interesting, you are simply a pair of funny people."

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong smiled at each other, their hearts filled with warmth. This reunion made them feel the long-lost friendship and support.

Huo Yuhao patted Wang Dong on the shoulder and said with a smile: “Wang Dong, seeing you this time, I feel that you have grown a lot taller.”

Wang Dong scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Really? I didn't really notice it. But you, Huo Yuhao, still look so thin."

He Caitou joked, "Even though Junior Brother has lost weight, his strength hasn't decreased at all. On the contrary, he has become stronger. You two have to work hard together, otherwise I will be surpassed by you two."

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, “Second Brother, don’t be so modest. We have always admired your strength. By the way, Wang Dong, do you have any special mission this time?”

Wang Dong nodded. "I came here mainly to discuss the next plan with you. I have some new intelligence that I need to share with you."

Huo Yuhao asked curiously: "New information? What is it?"

Wang Dong looked around and confirmed that no one noticed them, then he whispered, "According to our intelligence network, there have been some unusual movements in the Xingluo Empire recently, especially with Duke Dai Hao of White Tiger. He seems to have made some new breakthroughs."

Huo Yuhao frowned, "New breakthrough?"

Wang Dong nodded, "Yes, the academy wants us to end this exchange early. It seems that the academy means that the war may come early."

Huo Yuhao's expression turned serious when he heard Wang Dong's words. "War is coming early? Is the situation that serious?"

Wang Dong sighed, "Yes, the senior management of the academy has already started an emergency meeting to prepare for possible conflicts. I'm afraid our exchange mission at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy will have to end early. You also know the current situation of the academy. We are all the key objects of the academy's protection and cannot tolerate any loss. So I came here to talk to you about your attitude. If possible, the academy is ready to negotiate with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy."

He Caitou also frowned, "It seems that the situation is more tense than we thought. We must organize the intelligence here as soon as possible and report it to the academy in time."

Huo Yuhao nodded. "Okay, let's hurry up. Wang Dong, do you have any specific information about Dai Hao's whereabouts?"

Wang Dong pulled out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Huo Yuhao. "This is all the information we have so far. Dai Hao has appeared frequently on the front lines recently, and his troops are also making large-scale mobilizations. What's even more worrying is that his strength seems to have improved significantly."

Huo Yuhao unfolded the scroll and quickly glanced through it, his expression becoming more serious. "This information is too important. We must act immediately. He Caitou, can you contact the other brothers?"

He Caitou nodded and said, "I will go and notify everyone to gather and get ready to go back to the academy."

Wang Dong added, "Not only us, but also the intelligence personnel of the academy in other places are acting synchronously. We must ensure that the information is transmitted correctly and be prepared for the battle."

Huo Yuhao clenched his fists, his determination to fight ignited in his heart. "No matter what happens, we must do our best to protect the students of our Shrek Academy. Since we have come together, we must go back together."

He Caitou patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Junior brother, your determination is right. We will not fight this battle alone."

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said firmly, "Then we must act now. We cannot waste a single minute."

The three of them quickly split up, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong sorted out the intelligence, and He Caitou contacted other brothers. Time was running out, and everyone was making the best preparations for the upcoming challenge.

After briefly explaining the situation to Jing Hongchen, Ying Qian quickly left Mingdu and flew towards the Xingluo Empire. His figure was speeding through the air, the sound of the wind whistling past his ears, but his thoughts were extremely clear.

During the flight, Ying Qian couldn't help but think about Dai Hao's situation. The Silver Dragon King mentioned the possibility of the Slanted Eyes Saint King, and now there is intelligence showing that Dai Hao's strength has improved by leaps and bounds. All of this points to one possibility - Dai Hao is likely to be the bloodline heir of the Slanted Eyes Saint King.

"If the power of the Slanted Eyes Saint King really appears in the Xingluo Empire, it will be a huge threat to me." Ying Qian thought to himself. He knew that he had to confirm Dai Hao's true situation as soon as possible and find a countermeasure.

The border of the Sun Moon Empire gradually appeared in Ying Qian's field of vision. He slowed down his flight speed and began to carefully observe the surrounding environment. His perception was very sharp and he could detect subtle changes in the surrounding environment.

Just as he was about to approach, he suddenly felt a strong fluctuation of soul power. That power carried a cold murderous intent that made people shudder.

"It seems that there is a problem here." Ying Qian said to himself, quickly adjusted the direction, and flew towards the source of the soul power fluctuations.

"Be careful, the soul power fluctuations here are very strange." Just as Ying Qian was moving forward rashly, the voice of the Silver Dragon King suddenly sounded in Ying Qian's mind.
