Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao, the Thief of Heaven

Bei Bei and Tang Ya settled in smoothly at the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. During this month, Ning Zhiyuan gave most of the people in the Soul Guidance Hall a break.

It's unrealistic for everyone to keep quiet. This way, the core members of the project can continue planning without them noticing anything amiss.

otherwise--

Moon (kindly): "Zhiyuan, for the sake of peace on the continent, let Shrek Academy keep the technology."

In that case, Ning Zhiyuan might really consider defecting to the Sun Moon Empire.

A week later, Huo Yuhao used the Ten-Thousand-Year Extreme Cold Black Iron to create a pair of fan-shaped soul tools.

"Ning Tian, ​​this is for you."

At the entrance of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Huo Yuhao handed the pair of iron fans, each about the length of a forearm, to Ning Tian from his soul tool.

"What is this?" Ning Tian asked, taking the fan with a puzzled expression.

"This is a soul tool I made. It can store twenty charges of my ultimate ice level and has three attack modes."

Huo Yuhao stood up straight, like a proud rooster. This was an excellent soul tool that he had made in a short time by combining the characteristics of his martial soul.

"Wow!" Wu Feng and Na'er, who were with him, surrounded Ning Tian and squeezed him in.

Ning Tian's smile slowly froze, and then steam rose from his blushing head.

"Wh...what's wrong..." Huo Yuhao was embarrassed.

"Even I, an outsider, know about your local customs," Benjamin remarked speechlessly.

"Huh—what was it again?"

"Think carefully about the two customs that Tang San brought to this world." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was speechless.

"I remember it was something like 'a teacher for a day' and..."

Huo Yuhao's expression immediately turned awkward, and he instantly realized the inappropriateness of giving Ning Tian this gift.

That was a day's apprenticeship and a token of love.

"Um, this isn't very formal. It's just for self-defense," Huo Yuhao said, blushing as he waved his hand.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's appearance, Ning Tian's eyes fell into dejection, and he said, his eyes losing their luster, "Oh, it's just for self-defense."

Wu Feng slowly turned his head, his eyes filled with barely concealed anger. Na'er, a beat slower, followed suit and glared at Huo Yuhao.

"I...I understand." Huo Yuhao immediately pulled Ning Tian's hand away from them and whispered to each other.

Ning Tian gave them a thumbs-up with the hand he had turned away from.

Na'er looked up to the side and saw Wu Feng's chest rise violently as he took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly and fully.

Looking at Wu Feng's relieved yet regretful gaze, she tilted her head in confusion.

Human emotions are so complex.

"If you like it, you can keep this fan. I will continue to upgrade it for you in the future. Even if you like it, your combat strength must keep up."

Huo Yuhao whispered something in Ning Tian's ear, and Ning Tian just smiled and nodded at him.

"Look, even I feel a few years younger," said the Amorous Douluo, stroking his beard and laughing as he walked out of the gate.

"Kids, are you all almost ready? Let's set off then."

Upon hearing this, the group nodded to Cao Zangxin in unison, indicating that they were ready.

Their mission this time was to hunt down Wu Feng's second spirit ring and Na'er's first spirit ring.

Our Silver Dragon King awakened his martial soul a little over a month ago, and Huo Yuhao's martial soul awakened right after that.

Since it's unreasonable for her to condense her own spirit rings, she, as the Silver Dragon King, still has to hunt spirit beasts.

Furthermore, since both of their first spirit rings could absorb fire-attribute spirit rings, they set their destination as the Death Volcano.

This is the place where Ma Hongjun, the Phoenix God, obtained the Phoenix Godhood in the past.

(Wang Qiu'er is still forging iron)

The way the Amorous Douluo carried people by flying was incredibly hardcore. Once his Martial Soul True Body was activated, everyone boarded the giant sword and flew towards the Death Volcano.

This is one of the most ideal habitats for fire-attribute soul beasts. The fire-attribute energy in the scorching air distorts the air, making it impossible to see the road ahead.

Even Wu Feng was drenched in sweat in this environment, the sweat evaporating instantly upon dripping onto the ground.

"Yuhao, you really had foresight in making this; you put it to use right away." Ning Tian smiled awkwardly and fanned himself with a fan.

The extreme ice-level chill only needs to be used once to cool Ning Tian for a long time, and the consumption is minimal, requiring only one recharge per day.

"Yeah, that's right." Huo Yuhao said with an awkward laugh.

He simply made the fan on a whim, never expecting it to be so useful.

"Give it to me, sister." Na'er stretched out her little hand to Ning Tian, ​​and immediately used her fan to dispel the heat.

"Let me use it too."

As soon as Wu Feng took the fan from Na'er, the fan vanished without a trace from his hand.

It turned out that the fan had appeared in the hands of the Amorous Douluo Cao Zangxin, who casually tossed it to Na'er.

"You should know the benefits of being here, right?" The Amorous Douluo smiled at Wu Feng.

"My dear grandfather, can't I even be a little more comfortable?"

These turbulent fire-attribute energies could indeed enhance Wu Feng's control over fire attributes, but they constantly disturbed her mind.

"Have you forgotten what happened a year ago?"

The Amorous Douluo immediately pulled Wu Feng's thoughts back to the time a year ago when he hunted down Ning Tian's second spirit ring.

At that time, he considered himself Ning Tian's knight, but in the most dangerous moment, he cowardly hid behind Ning Tian, ​​who was a support class.

Besides fear, there is also powerlessness.

She looked at Ning Tian with a confused expression, and Ning Tian returned her a look of unwavering determination.

Eventually, her gaze hardened. Whether for Ning Tian or for her own happiness, she had to be resolute and be the strongest force behind her.

"Um."

Looking at Wu Feng's increasingly determined gaze, Cao Zangxin smiled with satisfaction.

"Then I'm not going to worry about you anymore. What kind of soul beasts you manage to hunt is entirely up to you."

After saying that, before the others could react, Cao Zangxin disappeared without a trace, as if he really didn't care about them anymore.

Of course, he wouldn't really ignore the future of these sects; he hid in the shadows, keeping a close eye on them, afraid that something might go wrong.

Even if Ning Zhiyuan were to run into trouble, his first priority would still be saving these children. He didn't want to be branded with shame because of some minor issue.

"By the way, could it be that my amorous grandfather was playing a trick on me during that time?"

Wu Feng couldn't help but recall that during that time, food he ate around the Third Laboratory would always disappear, and he even smashed some bowls and chopsticks in a fit of rage.

"Cough cough cough cough..." Huo Yuhao, who was replenishing his water, was suddenly choked and began to cough wildly.

"What's wrong, Yuhao?" Ning Tian quickly came over and worriedly massaged Huo Yuhao's back, since he had been unable to get out of bed due to overwork recently.

"It's alright, it's alright. Let's talk about how to obtain a spirit ring first," Huo Yuhao said in a very serious tone.
