Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 85 The Ning Siblings and Wu Feng (Daily Wanderer)

"Fine, you don't trust me or Jiechu, but if you had someone with you, wouldn't it have been easy to ask Teacher Wang Yan to help you hunt for spirit rings? You insisted on coming to the Star Dou Great Forest all by yourself. Do you know how dangerous this place is?"

Huo Yuhao could only listen obediently to Ning Ge's criticism, not daring to utter a single loud word.

"I know you're quite capable, kid. You could even go toe-to-toe with Jie Chu when fully armed, but this is the Star Dou Forest. You keep calling me 'Brother Ning' all the time, have you forgotten what I told you? I almost lost my life here."

Ning Ge grew angrier as he spoke, wishing he could pat Huo Yuhao's head hard to see what the kid was thinking.

"I was wrong, I won't do it again next time."

Huo Yuhao immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake, showing a good attitude of remorse. What else could he do? He had so many secrets.

"Hey kid, fine, I'll let it go since you're just wandering around the outer area. With your strength, it's really hard for you to encounter any danger in the outer area."

"But you better remember this, kid: you have friends and teachers around you. You'll never have to fight alone. Just ask, and Jiechu and I will definitely help you."

Seeing that Huo Yuhao's attitude of admitting his mistake was good, Ning Ge's anger subsided by more than half. Looking at Huo Yuhao, who was still bowing his head and waiting for judgment, Ning Ge patted him on the shoulder.

"Alright, stop pretending, kid. Let me introduce you."

Ning Ge pointed to the blonde girl from earlier and said, "This is my younger sister, from our clan, Ning Tian, ​​a spoiled little girl."

"What did you say, you bastard?!"

Ning Tian swung her small fist and punched Ning Ge in the hard abdomen, making her fist ache.

"Hahaha."

Ning Ge was punched by Ning Tian, ​​but instead burst into laughter: "You idiot, how could I not wear inner armor when I come out to help you hunt souls? This time I'm wearing a replica of the Eight Treasures Ruyi Soft Armor forged by the master craftsman Lou Gao. Even if a soul beast of the ten thousand years level bites you, you won't even cry out. You fool."

Ignoring Ning Tian's huffy and resentful gaze, Ning Ge pointed to the red-haired girl who had been standing next to Ning Tian.

"This is Wu Feng, Ning Tian's protector who grew up with him. By the way, you might not know what being a protector means in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so just think of her as my sister's good friend!"

Ning Ge had only finished his introduction when he hissed and gasped. Looking down, he realized that Ning Tian's fingers were pinching the soft flesh on his waist.

"You idiot, it's the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. Can't you count?"

Ning Tian looked at Ning Ge with dissatisfaction.

"I should have used more material and made the soft armor bigger."

Ning Ge rubbed the soft flesh where Ning Tian had pinched him, muttered something, and rolled his eyes: "Yeah, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect without the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, they really aren't afraid of being laughed at."

Before Ning Tian could say anything more, Ning Ge had already pulled Huo Yuhao over.

"You silly girl, do you still remember the genius I told you about when I wrote to you?"

Distracted by Ning Ge, Ning Tian immediately forgot what had just happened. He tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "Oh, I remember now. That day you wrote a letter mocking Brother Jiejie, saying that he actually had a good eye for talent. Later, you kept writing letters praising him to the skies."

Ning Ge laughed and said, "I wasn't praising Yuhao, I was just telling the truth. Come on, let me introduce you to this silly girl. This is Yuhao, his main spirit is Spirit Eye, level 20, a level 2 Soul Master."

"I know you don't believe me, but it's okay. You can find out how amazing this kid is just by asking around at the academy. As long as you mention Yuhao's name, everyone in the academy will give him a thumbs up."

Hearing Ning Ge say this, Ning Tian couldn't help but look at Huo Yuhao with a hint of curiosity.

"Hello, Miss Ning Tian and Miss Wu Feng. I am Huo Yuhao. Brother Ning is just kidding. Actually, I am just an ordinary freshman, and I haven't even enrolled yet."

Huo Yuhao scratched his head. For some reason, he felt that the little girl named Wu Feng standing behind Ning Tian seemed to be very hostile towards her.

Stealing a glance at the other person, the girl called Wu Feng had short, fiery red hair and unusually red eyes.

At first glance, she has a somewhat terrifying air, but upon closer inspection, one can find that her features are extremely delicate, and her skin is as white as jade, though her gaze clearly carries a hint of hostility.

I don't think I've ever offended this girl, have I? Why does she look at me like I've stolen something from her?

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel puzzled. The way this little girl was looking at him was clearly strange, but he couldn't figure out why for the time being.

"Yuhao, although the main purpose today is to help Xiaotian obtain a spirit ring, if you haven't obtained your second spirit ring yet, I'll help you find one as well."

Ning Ge slung the enormous, door-sized giant sword back over his shoulder. With a click, the sword, weighing over a hundred pounds, was firmly secured to his back.

"Brother Ning, this isn't necessary. I've already absorbed my second spirit ring."

Huo Yuhao immediately released his two spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, an exaggerated combination that immediately caused Ning Ge and the other two to shrink in shock.

Ning Ge subconsciously rubbed his eyes: "Did I see that right? The second soul ring in a thousand years, how did you even do that?"

Ning Tian couldn't help but let out a low exclamation. Although with the development of the times, as long as one's physical fitness is strong enough, it is no longer a rare thing to absorb a spirit ring that is above one's level, it is still a privilege that belongs to only a few people.

Although such things are not uncommon, such as the top elders of Shrek Academy, the powerful figures hidden behind the scenes of various sects and empires, most of them have one or two soul rings that they have absorbed beyond their level, but that is only something that happens after the fifth or even seventh ring.

Huo Yuhao's second spirit ring is a thousand years old, such an exaggerated spirit ring configuration is indeed rare in the world.

This is especially true for the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, since allowing a support-type Soul Master to absorb a Soul Ring beyond their level is somewhat unreasonable.

"You little rascal, you really prepared a big surprise for everyone without saying a word. A second spirit ring that lasts a thousand years, you really dare to dream."

Ning Ge patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder heavily with satisfaction. The physical strength of a level 50+ Soul King, combined with Ning Ge's body of muscles as solid as iron, almost knocked Huo Yuhao down, even though Huo Yuhao was already a Great Soul Master.
