"Oh? It seems they have an incredibly high talent for forging. And they seem quite interested in it, so I don't need to worry anymore."
Upon receiving the Contra Master's report, Sikong Hong was somewhat surprised, but then revealed an expression of "I knew it," as if he hadn't expected it. By now, he had become numb to the talent of these two.
"Alright, you've worked hard today. Go back and get some rest."
"Yes."
Contra left the office.
Sikong Hong tapped his fingers on the table, his face full of distress. "Elder Han's disciple is truly inhuman. If he hadn't come back, I wouldn't know how to train him."
He was just an ordinary Title Douluo with three-word battle armor. He could teach ordinary people, but now that two unprecedented geniuses were in front of him, what could he teach? He was even afraid of teaching them wrong.
Otherwise, why would we make them read books every day?
"Gu Yuena is alright, just a bit aloof. At heart, she's still a silly little girl. Huo Yuhao, sigh, how can he be such a shrewd kid? Being too mature isn't good either; how will he get along with the other kids in the future?"
Facing Huo Yuhao, he felt like he was teaching the Sky-Supporting Douluo, which was utterly ridiculous; his knowledge base might not even be as extensive as Huo Yuhao's. Is a mental-type martial soul really that convenient?
bang bang.
A knock on the door interrupted Sikong Hong's thoughts.
"Enter."
squeak-
The door was pushed open, and what came into view was Huo Yuhao's harmless face, which always wore a calm expression.
"Teacher Si, I have something I'd like to discuss with you."
Sikong Hong initially didn't take it seriously, assuming Huo Yuhao had some other ideas. But when he heard Huo Yuhao say he wanted to hang the Holy Craftsman Mu Chen, and even Zhenhua, he was stunned.
No, how come you're so young and always scheming against each other?
Why think so much?
But he had to admit one thing: the plan was feasible, risk-free, and incredibly profitable, and he was genuinely tempted. If this succeeded, his four-word battle armor would be secured!
Sikong Hong: Shock! I will become the first Title Douluo below Super Douluo to possess a four-word battle armor!
"Tell me honestly, did you guys plan this all along? That's why you went to learn forging. After all, you have good physical attributes and that cheat-like soul skill."
Despite agreeing, Sikong Hong was still annoyed. He was the number one person in the East Sea, yet he seemed to be brainless, having to listen to Huo Yuhao's schemes and instructions for everything.
Of course, he harbored no resentment. He simply didn't want to use his brain much in the first place, otherwise he wouldn't have taken up a position in the East China Sea. This region was economically developed, but the number of Soul Masters was, to put it mildly, less than satisfactory.
He acts like a local tyrant here, doing whatever he wants. As long as it's not too outrageous, he doesn't need to think too much and lets his subordinates handle things. All he needs to do is exert his strength.
"That's right."
Huo Yuhao did not deny it.
Then, amidst Sikong Hong's increasingly frustrated expression, he posed several questions: "Teacher Si, what is the relationship between our Spirit Pagoda and the Blacksmith Association, and the Divine Craftsman Zhenhua? Within the Divine Craftsman's personal network, who does he favor? When will the next Divine Craftsman be born, and what kind of relationship will he have with our Spirit Pagoda?"
"You mean this?"
Sikong Hong frowned. He didn't understand what Huo Yuhao was worried about. Of course, the relationship between the Spirit Pagoda and the Blacksmith Association was good. After all, the profession of Blacksmith Association was developed because of the first tower master. It can be said that the two sides are as close as brothers.
As for Zhenhua, he couldn't possibly have any bias. From his position, no one could allow him to show favoritism towards either side.
A master craftsman is undeniably important to any organization. A master craftsman can practically monopolize the market for four-word battle armor without doing anything, and just how terrifying is four-word battle armor? It can grant a Super Douluo ultimate combat power! In an instant, they leap into the ranks of the strongest beings in the mortal realm!
Without a doubt, Limit Douluo represents the pinnacle of combat power in the human realm, even as their numbers have increased and people have gained a deeper understanding of this level, leading to more detailed classifications.
However, experts at this level are still extremely rare. If we overestimate, there are only about thirty on this entire planet.
Each of their ultimate combat abilities is like a human-shaped nuclear warhead!
Therefore, various organizations such as the Federation, the Spirit Pagoda, the Tang Sect, and Shrek Academy will exert pressure and extend olive branches to prevent the Divine Craftsman from becoming biased.
"You're referring to the public relations, but I'm asking about this master craftsman's private relationships. While it's not good to pry into other people's personal relationships, I believe the various organizations are aware of this. After all, the importance of a master craftsman is self-evident. I believe we've also sent people to his side to become his friends."
Huo Yuhao shook his head and said seriously, "The legacy of the first Tower Master can't guarantee anything. Even brothers have turned against each other. Over ten thousand years, the Blacksmith Association and the Spirit Pagoda will inevitably drift apart. We need to think about the future."
"Could it be..." Sikong Hong's expression changed drastically. He looked at Huo Yuhao in disbelief and lowered his voice to scold, "Yuhao, do you want the Spirit Pagoda to become the next Spirit Hall?! The first tower master had a rule that we should take the Spirit Hall as a warning, and the Spirit Pagoda will not interfere in the internal affairs of the Federation and will always be an organization of the Federation."
"I understand the rules set out back then better than you do," Huo Yuhao thought to himself with a smile. He understood the rules better than anyone else, which is why he was better at exploiting loopholes in them.
If you don't want to destroy your Spirit Pagoda, then learn from Tang San, become Tang San, and surpass Tang San!
With its monopoly on Soul Spirit technology, the Spirit Pagoda will never perish. Even after Douluo Continent IV, it was only forcibly merged with Shrek Academy.
"Teacher Si, you're right. However, the Spirit Pagoda is already far too powerful. If it were merely outwardly obedient and subject to the Federation's control, that would be one thing. But the Spirit Pagoda's profits are enormous, its distribution is too widespread, and almost everyone trusts it more. Furthermore, the Spirit Pagoda has its own unique operating system. It's practically another Federation, independent of the Federation itself! And because of our close relationship with spirit beasts, we have at least four stable Limit Douluos. With such a powerful and terrifying organization, wouldn't the Federation be wary?"
"Ahead of us are the arrogant Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect. They've shielded us from the Federation's wrath, and the Federation needs us to deal with them. But what happens after those two organizations are destroyed? Our Spirit Pagoda will be in danger!"
Sikong Hong was speechless; he truly hadn't thought that far ahead. But he still wanted to ask, "Does your statement have anything to do with your intention to corrupt the Spirit Pagoda?!"
"The Federation has now blocked the Spirit Pagoda from establishing branches on other continents. But I'm certain Shrek Academy and they definitely have branches on other continents! How much have we lost over the years?"
"The Spirit Pagoda has actually changed its nature long ago, but this change is beneficial to both the soul beasts and us, so no one has stopped it over the years. Making the Spirit Pagoda the leader of the Federation has actually been the demand of countless people."
"Furthermore, I don't believe you don't know what my Eye Martial Soul truly represents?"
This time, Sikong Hong truly fell silent.
Do not you know?
How is that possible?!
The Spirit Ice Douluo is this martial soul.
This martial spirit occasionally awakens in the descendants of Xu Tianzhen, the first empress of the Sun Moon Empire (the predecessor of the Sun Moon Federation), and Lingbing Douluo.
This generation of descendants abolished the original royal family and inherited the three super martial souls of Spirit Eye, Sun, and Moon under the surname Xu. To this day, they still hold important seats in the Federal Council and the Spirit Pagoda Council.
Huo Yuhao, this might be the Xu family's bloodline that was lost to the outside world!
With his talent, he is qualified to compete for the position of Master of the Spirit Pagoda, and at that time he will also possess the legitimacy of the Federation's predecessor...
hiss!
Sikong Hong thought about it more and more and it seemed possible. He looked at Huo Yuhao with increasingly strange eyes. This kid is like a hedgehog, he's really prickly!
When he grows up...
Seeing his constantly changing expression, Huo Yuhao smiled inwardly. He had left behind this bloodline not only to hide his true identity, but also to use the family's reputation to make a big show of things in the early stages before the bloodline had fully grown.
When he recovers to his peak, it will be the return of Lingbing, and the world will be won over.
Don't have any illusions about the Federation. It's nothing more than a tool made up of a bunch of families. They can probably only control three god-killing weapons. The rest of them have been infiltrated by organizations like Shrek Academy, Tang Sect, and Spirit Pagoda.
As for the War God Temple, the violent organization of the Federation, Huo Yuhao said: Damn it, isn't this Shrek Academy's War God Temple?
Please welcome our Hall Masters Chen Xinjie and Guan Yue to speak.
"So, you want to keep the Divine Craftsman under your control at the Spirit Pagoda? But won't Zhenhua see this possibility? If he has a bias, will he still accept you as his apprentices?"
Slumped in his seat, Sikong Hong knew he couldn't persuade Huo Yuhao. Thinking that his future studies might be over, he asked weakly.
The plan is good, but how can you guarantee it?
"He will definitely accept it. Because his health is deteriorating, and he has rarely practiced Heavenly Forging over the years. If he wants to pass on Heavenly Forging, he must find a disciple before he dies. He has no choice."
