"Is gege still in the laboratory?"
In the Douhun Arena, Xue Di turned her head and asked Gu Yue Na.
Gu Yue Na gave a slight nod, her face showing no hint of joy or sorrow.
"He's preparing to try upgrading the Dou Armor to the Three-Character level. The difficulty is great, but it's not without hope."
Xue Di froze for a moment, looking rather surprised.
"If I remember correctly, a Three-Character Dou Armor corresponds to the level of a Titled Douluo, right?"
Xue Di knew that with her brother's current strength, he already had a high chance of defeating weaker Titled Douluo. But if he truly elevated his Dou Armor to Three-Character level, then even Super Douluo would be within reach!
A Soul Douluo fighting a Super Douluo — if such a thing spread, the whole continent would think the opponent was insane.
However, Xue Di had great confidence in her brother. She believed that her brother would absolutely be able to accomplish what he had said: changing the structure of the continent, changing the fate of soul beasts, and even ending the situation of the Douluo Continent being endlessly drained by the God Realm!
Thinking of this, Xue Di looked at Gu Yue Na, her face full of a bright smile.
"Thank you for always helping my brother."
Gu Yue Na did not become pleased by Xue Di's gratitude. Instead, she cast her a disdainful sideways glance and said coolly:
"From what position are you thanking me?"
Xue Di smiled sweetly, teasing:
"Of course from the position of a younger sister."
Gu Yue Na really wanted to ask: younger sister, or… a certain kind of younger sister?But reason stopped her from speaking it aloud.
Even so, the smile on Xue Di's face made her extremely uncomfortable. Even knowing it wasn't mockery, Gu Yue Na still felt irritated.
Obviously she was the one who met Huo Yuhao first.She helped him develop Dou Armor, even designed a complete set of personalized Dou Armor for all the girls in the group, including Xue Di.
Yet whether in Huo Yuhao's heart or in the eyes of the other girls, she still seemed to be beneath Xue Di.
How could Gu Yue Na possibly accept that?
Just then, something seemed to occur to her. She looked at Xue Di and asked:
"Do you know what Huo Yuhao named his Dou Armor?"
Xue Di blinked, then shook her head.
"I don't know either. I asked my brother several times, but he never told me."
Gu Yue Na examined Xue Di suspiciously. Seeing she wasn't lying only made Gu Yue Na even more curious about what kind of name that guy Huo Yuhao would give his Dou Armor.
Honestly, no matter how fiercely she and Xue Di fought, no matter whether Meng Hongchen, Di Xiu'er, or Wang Dong'er supported one side or the other, the final decision still rested with Huo Yuhao himself!
If the name of his Dou Armor was related to Xue Di… then Gu Yue Na would truly feel she had fallen into disadvantage.
And if that really happened, she would absolutely explode.
Gu Yue Na took a deep breath and said seriously:
"Want to spar?"
Xue Di hadn't expected this request. But after only a moment's hesitation, she immediately nodded.
"No problem."
When the others saw Gu Yue Na and Xue Di step onto the arena stage, all of the girls stopped what they were doing to gather around and watch.
Of course, they all knew that although both Gu Yue Na and Xue Di's true strength far surpassed the Soul Sage level, neither would use excessively high-level power in this spar. At most, they would fight using the level of a human Soul Sage — just to vent emotions.
And precisely because of this, the battle carried suspense and made everyone instinctively curious about who would win.
Meng Hongchen looked around with a grin.
"Place your bets — who do you think will win?"
This definitely wasn't their first time gambling on fights, but this was the first time the matchup was Gu Yue Na versus Xue Di.
Di Xiu'er was the first to declare:
"I support Gu Yue Na! Xue Di is strong, but she definitely isn't sister Gu Yue Na's match!"
After all, Gu Yue Na was the Silver Dragon King, ruler of soul beasts. Even though she lost much of her majesty in front of the girl group due to their mutual affection for Huo Yuhao, none of them had ever questioned her strength.
In this era where the Douluo Continent was cut off from the God Realm, Gu Yue Na — despite being injured — remained the strongest without question.
Wang Dong'er immediately followed:
"I support Xue Di! If they're both restricted to Soul Sage–level strength, I don't think Xue Di will lose to Gu Yue Na!"
Di Xiu'er and Wang Dong'er exchanged glances — sparks seemed to fly.
Although the girls had become extremely close after these years together, frictions still happened.
Between Di Xiu'er and Wang Dong'er, there were especially frequent sparks.
After all, if events had followed the original timeline, those two were Huo Yuhao's true "official love rivals."
After them, the other girls also declared their positions one after another. Support for Gu Yue Na and Xue Di was evenly split.
Worth noting: Bai Xiu Xiu, Lan Fozi, and Ning Tian — the three transfer students — were now also among the girl group.
Bai Xiu Xiu and Lan Fozi had fought each other for five years. Although they still spoke of the "mortal enmity between the Demon Soul Great White Shark and the Deep Sea Demon Whale," everyone already knew they had become… uniquely close friends.
It was just that, due to the irreconcilable conflict between their races, they could only maintain this current awkward status.
Under the gaze of the girl group, the battle between Gu Yue Na and Xue Di officially began!
One more thing worth mentioning — the reason they hadn't realized that Huo Yuhao long knew they could read his diary, and had purposely written misleading things in it…
Was because Huo Yuhao had long prepared an explanation in the diary, giving them a completely reasonable justification, preventing the truth about him being the mastermind from being exposed.
Huo Yuhao was certain: after all the socially-lethal things these girls did just to hide the existence of the diary copies, if they learned the truth, his fate would be miserable beyond imagination.
Being a mastermind truly isn't a job just anyone can handle.
While Zhong Liwu led the Holy Spirit Cult's participants toward Mingdu, they happened to run into Shrek's group. Although a direct fight didn't break out, a round of mockery was inevitable.
The Death God Messenger looked arrogantly at Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and the others, openly declaring that during the competition they had better not run into the Holy Spirit Cult — otherwise, he would personally slaughter them or turn them into corpse puppets.
Xuan Zi, their supervising teacher, glared at the Death God Messenger with murderous fury, itching to kill him on the spot.
Bei Bei's gaze never left Tang Ya. But thinking of how she had treated him these past years — if not for the protection of others, he would have already become her nourishment — his eyes dimmed instantly.
What Bei Bei didn't know was that at this moment, Tang Ya and Ma Xiaotao were filled with joy.
After five long years… they could finally see the master who haunted their souls — Huo Yuhao — again!
