Shrek is still some distance from the Mingdou Mountains.

With the old and new Shrek Academy members mentoring each other, Huo Yuhao was left out.

"Elder Xuan, isn't there a more dignified way?" Huo Yuhao muttered under his breath as he looked at Xuanzi, who was pulling him by the collar.

"What? You're not going to let me hug you?" Xuanzi glanced at Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao looked up at Xuanzi's face, the grease from the chicken leg still sticking to his lips.

He couldn't help but shiver.

"Never mind, never mind, this is fine."

Feeling the pressure on his collar and the scenery rushing past below him, Huo Yuhao sighed and lowered his head.

"My soul power level needs to be increased quickly, otherwise I won't be able to maintain flight for long even with a flying soul tool."

On the way, we passed a stream and checked the time; it was about time to rest.

Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng exchanged a glance, and then ordered them to set up camp and rest by the river.

"Has the team leader been decided yet?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the two of them and made his own guesses.

Indeed, the captain of the older generation of Shrek Seven Devils has not yet been chosen.

The original captain was Dai Yueheng, but Ma Xiaotao joined and tried to take over the captaincy.

Unfortunately, she still couldn't suppress her evil fire stably, and she would need to find Huo Yuhao to harvest it in a few days, otherwise she wouldn't be able to unleash her full power.

In comparison, Dai Yueheng's progress was incredibly rapid. After Dai Huabin's death, all the resources of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion were concentrated on Dai Yueheng.

What was originally a choice between two heirs has now become a locked-in heir.

Soon, the group landed, and several simple tents appeared on the riverbank.

"It's getting late, let's rest here for the night."

Dai Yueheng looked at everyone, nodded and smiled.

The next moment, the older generation of Shrek Seven Devils almost all looked at Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao saw the look in everyone's eyes and immediately understood. He smiled and nodded, "Okay, okay, I'll take care of dinner, but everyone has to come and help. If you don't help, you won't get any food."

"Okay, Chef!" Yao Haoxuan looked at Huo Yuhao, raised his hand in a funny salute, and then ran into the grove: "I'm going to find some branches to make skewers."

"Then I'll go collect some dead wood," Gongyang Mo chuckled, and then headed into the forest.

"Let's go hunting." Ma Xiaotao stood up quite naturally, looking at Ling Luochen beside her.

Ling Luochen also stood up.

In an instant, everyone had a clear division of labor, as if they had rehearsed it several times.

This series of actions left the new generation of Shrek Seven Devils stunned. Only Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao understood what was going on and quickly moved closer to Huo Yuhao.

They both knew that Huo Yuhao was a man of his word; if he said he wouldn't give them food, he wouldn't.

"Yuhao, what are we going to do!" Wang Dong put his hands on his hips and looked at Huo Yuhao with a smile.

Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement.

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment, then took off his shoes and rolled up his trouser legs.

"You two come with me to the river to catch fish, we can make a fish soup."

With that, the three of them went down into the river to catch fish.

The remaining people quickly understood and went into the forest to help collect the necessary items.

Wu Feng and Ning Tian walked together, and the two spent almost every day together.

With a smile on his face, Wu Feng walked in front of Ning Tian quite consciously.

"Ning Tian, ​​I'll handle the hunting. You're a support-type Soul Master, be careful not to get hurt!"

Ning Tian shook his head: "I can handle this kind of simple work. Besides, it's best not to leave a bad impression of laziness in Huo Yuhao's mind."

In an instant, Wu Feng turned his head and stared at Ning Tian's face, then a look of surprise slowly appeared on his face!

"Ning Tian! You wouldn't have fallen for that guy surnamed Huo, would you?!"

Ning Tian shook his head: "I am a member of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, so I definitely need to find a powerful Soul Master as my partner."

"Among the Shrek Seven Devils, both the old and new ones are outstanding, and all the men are suitable to be partners."

"However, some classmates from prominent families will definitely not be able to come back to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School with me, so we can only choose some classmates from more ordinary families."

"After observing and investigating for so long, Huo Yuhao is the most suitable candidate."

"He is an orphan, but he is extremely talented, and his strength has been verified by both of us."

Ning Tian immediately recalled the scene from that year's freshman competition, where Huo Yuhao's eyes were bloodshot as he looked down upon all living beings.

A year later, those eyes were still etched in her mind.

As the loser, Wu Feng was well aware of Huo Yuhao's strength.

Even though she's now at the third ring level, she still can't figure out how to deal with Huo Yuhao from back then.

But there was one more thing she disagreed with.

"Does it have to be a man?" Wu Feng's voice was low, and a faint resentment appeared in his eyes.

Ning Tian glanced at her and sighed softly.

She was aware of Wu Feng's feelings for her, but as the young master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, she was burdened by the school's legacy and had no way to reciprocate his feelings.

On the other side, deep in the forest, a blond man leaned against a tree.

"How's the investigation going?" Dai Yueheng asked slowly.

A voice came from behind the tree.

"Young Master, according to the investigation, Ling Luochen's family has not produced any experts at the Title Douluo level."

"Continue the investigation. If their family isn't involved, then check if they have any branches or main lines, and then trace further back! There are only a handful of ice-attribute families on the entire continent! We've investigated all the other families, and their family is the most suspicious!"

"Yes, young master!"

As the voice faded, the figure was about to disappear.

But Dai Yueheng stopped him.

"Wait a minute, you... go investigate Huo Yuhao again."

"Huo Yuhao?" The figure was taken aback.

"Hmm, I feel like I'm somewhat familiar with that guy. He's had a conflict with Hua Bin before, and he might even have a grudge against Hua Bin."

"Yes, young master."

Dai Yueheng looked at the darkening sky and slowly sighed.

His brother died, and so did a city lord who supported their family.

However, the ice-attribute expert who killed them disappeared without a trace.

As a result, he was constantly suspected by his family as one of the beneficiaries of his brother's death.

Although resources have increased, the failure to catch the murderer still poses a certain threat to his succession as Duke of the White Tiger.

Therefore, the task of investigating the murderer fell to him.

He investigated for a long time, secretly investigating almost all the ice-attribute families on the entire continent, but the ice-attribute expert seemed to have vanished without a trace!

In the past, he definitely wouldn't have paid any attention to Huo Yuhao, just a talented but unconnected Soul Master.

It's not worth mentioning until the talent is fully realized.

But he was desperate and had no other choice but to try anything.

He investigates anyone who has ever had a conflict with his brother.

Huo Yuhao gave him a sense of familiarity, so he was the first to be investigated.

"Don't go too far, Dai Yueheng." A figure suddenly appeared on the treetop.

Hearing that familiar voice, Dai Yueheng knew who it was without turning around.

"It's just an investigation into Elder Xuan, an order from the family." Dai Yueheng shrugged.

Xuanzi didn't say much; he just reminded Dai Yueheng and then disappeared.

Dai Yueheng stretched his limbs, picked up a wild rabbit and pheasant from the side, and slowly walked towards the camp.

Upon arriving at the camp, he found that almost everyone had returned, the fire was already lit, and Huo Yuhao had begun grilling and cooking soup.

He walked forward with a smile on his face.

"Just leave it there." Huo Yuhao focused on processing the fish he had just caught from the river.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's skillful movements, Dai Yueheng's doubts about him gradually dissipated.

If he really has a powerful background, how could he be so skilled at scaling fish? He's probably from a poor family who often catches fish to eat.

But the next moment, the smile on his face slowly froze, and his eyes glanced almost imperceptibly at the dagger Huo Yuhao had used to remove the fish scales.

"Why is there the White Tiger Duke's mark on this?"
