--- Chapter 289 ---

Huo Yuhao returned to Java Island and rubbed his throat slightly. It was sore due to excessive shouts earlier. Well, can you blame him for being too excited?

He carefreely stepped into the underground facility and used his Divine Power to clean some debris from his clothes. He walked on the space-folding runes and arrived at the arena used for the Continental Spirit Academy Tournament's 2nd round.

As Huo Yuhao walked into the arena, he saw countless matches done in one moment. He looked for Qianye Ying'er and the girls, sensing them in room no. 69. 

Huo Yuhao teleported there and surprised them, "Hello, there." 

Everyone was shocked, except for some girls. 

"Jeez, stop teleporting suddenly like that." Huang Yuna complained while munching on her bread. "Make your presence known first, Yuhao." 

"Yes, you're giving us a fright," Yae nodded at the Auspicious Monarch's words.

"You must compensate us with an emotional fee." 

"What the hell is emotional fee." Huo Yuhao crashed on the sofa and met with Ophis's pouting look. 

"I thought you were busy." Ophis stubbornly chewed on spiritual sugarcane.

Huo Yuhao smiled and answered, "I was. There is something I need to do at the Advalon." 

"Hmm..." Ophis kept chewing. 

Kunou suddenly shook Huo Yuhao's arm and asked, "Yuhao-nii, Kunou want to see what you did in the Advalon?" 

Huo Yuhao felt curious gazes behind his back and shrugged, "Sure." 

He snapped his finger and summoned one Cyber Tuner, which clawed its way from the Cyberspace. The dark blue neon drone caught everyone's attention, but they couldn't feel anything special from this thing. 

'Flying Isopod?' Ophis tilted her head in confusion. 

Qianye Ying'er squinted her eyes, "What is this? It looks like one of those drones you created, but I felt something amiss about it." 

"Yeah, it feels alive..." Huang Qiu'er suddenly commented.

"Yeah, alive!" Everyone finally realized the hunch in their heads.

Huo Yuhao smirked, "Because it is alive. Cyber Tuner was a mimicry of a lifeform, after all." 

"Don't look down on Cyber Tuner because it might look and feel weak, but it is the foundation of the Cyber Race I created. Unfortunately, I have no way to test them besides the dungeon." 

"No, maybe I can show you Cyber Race's might later." Huo Yuhao recalled someone who had been snooping around the Douluo Planet recently. 

"For now... Let's see what the Continental Spirit Academy Tournament had for us." 

Everyone gazed at the viewing screen and watched the new Shrek Seven Devils fighting a group of Spirit Kings. They are winning, but something is weird about this fight. 

...

Underground Arena, Bracket D.

The Shrek Seven Devils are fighting a team called the Ferocious Sevens and have a difficult time. Even though they led this match, they had to bench Tang Ya because of the previous matches and lost their best crowd-control expert's support.

Bei Bei fiercely exchanged blows with the Ferocious Sevens' captain and used his dragon arm to punch a lighting break.

BAM!

The Ferocious Seven's captain is a young woman. She wore a green dress and veil, hiding her face from Bei Bei's face. 

"Mm, you're tasty." She said while licking her lips. 

"Unfortunately, the game is over." 

"Boys, let's tenderize their meat!" 

Bei Bei frowned and sensed something amiss with the mist. He coughed and watched blood trickling onto his hand. 

"Poison?" He grimly said. 

"Hehe, everything is fair and square in the arena. As long as we don't kill you guys." The green-dressed woman chuckled. 

The same things also happen to other Shrek Seven Devils. They suddenly coughed a mouthful of blood and felt weakened slightly. 

"Fuck!" Xiao Xiao cursed while adjusting her breathing with Universal Breathing Technique. 

Then, Xiao Xiao's eyes widened shortly after when she saw a punch coming to her face and sending her flying several meters away. 

The remaining Shrek Seven Devils fell to the ground and clutched their chest. They looked pained like something burned them from the inside. 

The Ferocious Sevens grinned at this, "Finish them!" 

However, steam with sweet scents suddenly comes from the Shrek Seven Devils' bodies. 

Tang Ya watched the arena from a separate dimension where an extra team member stayed and smiled amusingly, "Using poison on us is a big fucking mistake." 

"Huo Yuhao is a devil." 

"He didn't just tear our bodies apart with his training, but also made them much stronger and resistant to external elements, such as poisons." 

"That coughing blood is just a knee-jerk reaction." 

Yes, just as the Ferocious Sevens were about to attack the Shrek Seven Devils and finish the job, they unexpectedly stood up with a bloodthirsty grin.

"What?" The green-dressed woman was stunned.

Bei Bei rose with a howling golden lightning. He has awakened Holy Saint Dragon's bloodline in his body, transforming his Martial Soul completely.

It was a challenging and painful operation, but Bei Bei successfully did it with the Extraterrestrial Race's essence.

Right now, Bei Bei is just like Mu En. The possessor of Holy Saint Dragon Martial Soul!

ROAR!

Bei Bei punched with roaring dragon power and slammed the green-dressed woman's face.

BAM!

At the same time, the other Shrek Seven Devils also finished their opponents.

"The Shrek Academy's first team has won 4 matches in a row." Giana's voice echoed in the arena.

"Congratulations, you have entered the semi-quarter semifinals." 

The Shrek Seven Devils sighed in relief. 

These four matches are tiresome and consume too much stamina.

Thankfully, the Dragon Nest provided healthcare assistance for everyone and could fix injuries before the next match. 

With this newly applied healthcare assistance, everyone could fight with everything they had and even put their lives on the line. Yes, this is something that the previous tournament didn't have.

Even though everyone didn't know how Dragon Nest did it, they were more than happy to accept this new arrangement, which made the tournament more competitive.

"Gosh, my arm is killing me." Wang Dong complained while rubbing her sore hand. 

"That's because you didn't warm up before." Xiao Xiao commented with a dark expression. 

"Yeah, I do not want to hear that from someone who got punched in the face." Wang Dong retorted.

"Shut up. You're getting smoldered to the ground earlier." 

As they bickered, the rest of the Shrek Seven Devils laughed. 

Xu Sanshi supported Jiang Nannan and said, "Now we have entered the quarter semifinals." 

"No, we entered semi-quarter semifinals." Jiang Nannan fixed his words.

"We have entered the top thirty-two. Well, top thirty-six rankings." 

"That's good enough for our current strength." Luo Xing commented with a sigh. And He Caitou walked along her, mounting heavy spirit guidance cannons on his shoulders. 

"But if possible, we should get into the top sixteen. So we have a chance of fighting Yuhao." He Caitou said solemnly.

Everyone was silent when hearing He Caitou's words, but there was this gleam of hunger in their eyes. 

Even though they knew that Shrek Seven Devils' strength was many times inferior to Huo Yuhao, they still wished to battle the blue-haired monster.

At least they tried their best!

Unknown to them, Huo Yuhao had been listening to their conversation.

"Ignorant fools..." Huang Qiu'er mumbled between her breaths. She was also annoyed by the girlish boy named Wang Dong for some reason.

She can't explain her annoyance. It is just natural. 

"Now, now, don't say that, Qiu'er." Huang Yuna lectured her disciple with a smile. "Everyone deserves a chance to prove themselves." 

"Unless those people are ungrateful," Yae added casually.

"Some people just don't deserve a second chance." 

"Just beat them to a pulp." Ophis gave them a weird look. "They'd be quiet after that." 

"So violent... As expected of you, Ophis." Kunou gave her friend a thumbs up.

"I know, I'm the best!" Ophis placed her hands on the hips and lifted her little nose high.

Huo Yuhao facepalmed, 'No, you're inflating this dragon's ego too much, Kunou! Her strength doesn't follow common sense, and it would be a disaster if she grew ignorant.' 

'I don't want to see her blasting a planet because of it.' 

Qianye Ying'er giggled on the side. "What an amusing bunch." 

BOOM!

Suddenly, everyone stopped talking and instinctively looked up.

They frown because someone is probing Java Island's defensive runes array again.

This time, this person exploited the defensive runes array's weakness with extreme methods. He directly attacked everything with higher dimensional power and risked the Douluo Planet's safety.

"The disturbance of space and time. Another deity is about to descend on this mortal realm." Yae rubbed her chin. "Yuhao, do you know this guy?" 

"Well..." Huo Yuhao smiled a little.

"Let's just say he was the one who messed up with the fate that Qiu'er had." 

Yae's eyes widened in shock, "Wait, that's taboo. This deity actually dares to do such a thing."

"What's wrong with your upper realm?" 

Huo Yuhao shrugged, "He has the privilege but not the consent." 

Yae rolled her sleeve, "Hmph, I will beat him up." 

'Now, I know where Ophis got that mindset.' Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched slightly.

Huo Yuhao waved his hand, "Let me do it." 

"This will be a good debut show for my Cyber Race." He glanced at Huang Qiu'er, who trembled and clenched her hands tightly. 

"Do you want to follow me, Qiu'er? I won't kill the guy because that would be your job, but you can watch him getting beaten for now." 

Huang Qiu'er breathed in and gazed at Huo Yuhao's eyes firmly, "Bring me along, Master."

"Okay." 

Huo Yuhao held the courageous girl's hand and added playfully, "Have some popcorn and enjoy the entertainment, ladies. We will be back in a moment." 

Huang Yuna watched Huo Yuhao and her disciple disappear, "Be safe, Qiu'er." 

"I hope you realize you have a new family with us after this." A gentle smile formed on her beautiful face.

...

Outside Java Island, a powerful divine will descended and swept over the area with power presence. As golden blue light washed the sea, the space and time distorted, revealing a handsome man in blue.

"Wutong's Essence is nearby." 

"I can feel it..." 

"Don't worry, Wutong. Daddy will fix everything!"
