Douluo Continent: The Rebirth of Huo Yuhao

Chapter 48 Ma Xiaotao's Thoughts

Tang Ya and Bei Bei had invited Huo Yuhao to join the Tang Sect from the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. Huo Yuhao was initially very interested when he heard that joining the Tang Sect would allow him to learn its advanced cultivation techniques. However, for some reason, his eyes suddenly became extremely terrifying, and he refused Tang Ya and Bei Bei's invitation.

During the match, under Elder Xuan's pressure, Huo Yuhao's eyes suddenly became as terrifying as before. Then, with a desperate strike, he directly killed Dai Yueheng.

Beibei had initially taken a liking to her brave and determined younger brother and looked forward to their next meeting. But she never expected that when they met again, they would be rivals.

At the same time, the two sides have developed a life-or-death feud. Given their positions, they may never be friends again in this lifetime. How should they go back and tell Xiaoya? Xiaoya still thinks about the little brother who treated her to fish from time to time.

As Beibei's thoughts raced, Xu Sanshi, a reserve team member, spoke up:

"That Huo Yuhao is despicable! He actually tried to kill Senior Yueheng!"

Jiang Nannan, who always disagreed with him, retorted:

"Senior Xiaotao also killed members of the Sun and Moon Team, so why blame them for using lethal force? On the field, everyone uses their own methods; we were simply outmatched."

Ling Luochen, the only regular player on the field, was very dissatisfied with Jiang Nannan's words and said:

"Brother Yaoheng is a member of Shrek Academy, after all. What do you mean by defending an outsider?"

"I'm not trying to excuse him, I'm just being reasonable. And he didn't go all out at first; he only retaliated because he was unhappy with Elder Xuan's appearance."

Jiang Nannan came from a humble background and possessed a simple set of values. She believed in stating the facts as they were and strongly disliked the idea of ​​turning black into white, which she saw as a privilege often reserved for those in positions of power, and she intensely hated those in power.

"You..." Ling Luochen was furious, but had nothing to refute.

Seeing that they were about to start arguing, Beibei, as the reserve team leader, quickly stopped them.

In fact, he also had some reservations about Elder Xuan's actions in ruining their competition. If it weren't for Elder Xuan, Dai Yueheng might not have died.

Slight rifts have developed among the eight Shrek members in the room. Some unconditionally support any action taken by Xuan Lao, a member of the Sea God Pavilion, while others are dissatisfied with his actions that disrupt the competition.

At this point, the Shrek Seven Devils could no longer be considered the most coordinated team on the continent.

Even Xuan Lao himself didn't expect that his desperate gamble would destroy the most important unity of Shrek Academy.

But Elder Xuan couldn't hear the argument. At that moment, the solid ice he was guarding began to loosen.

After Ma Xiaotao suppressed the evil energy within her body using the power of the ultimate ice inside the solid ice, she regained her sanity.

Ma Xiaotao's martial soul is special, inherited from Ma Hongjun, one of the Shrek Seven Devils from ten thousand years ago, who possessed the Evil Fire Phoenix. Although her martial soul is extremely powerful, it has a major flaw.

The mythical phoenix was born bathed in evil fire, and those who possessed the martial soul wielded immense power while also suffering the torment of the evil fire.

Since Ma Xiaotao awakened her martial soul, she has been enduring torment every moment. The few hours she spent in the solid ice just now were the most comfortable moments of her life.

The torment that ravaged her soul drove her to the brink of madness countless times; no one knows how she endured it.

Only a strong soul force can suppress the pain when evil energy erupts, and the deeper one's cultivation, the more intense the torment of evil energy will be.

It was within this unsolvable cycle that Ma Xiaotao honed her skills. If she were given another chance, she would definitely not choose to awaken her martial soul again; the pain she endured was indescribable.

Now she saw hope to save herself from torment: Huo Yuhao!

Therefore, as soon as Ma Xiaotao woke up, she immediately asked Elder Xuan about Huo Yuhao's whereabouts, hoping to find a way to completely eliminate the evil energy from Huo Yuhao.

"He's gone, back to the Sun Moon Empire. We at Shrek Academy are irreconcilable enemies with the Sun Moon Empire. Getting him to help you is as difficult as climbing to the sky."

After hearing Ma Xiaotao's reason, Elder Xuan did not blame her. Elder Xuan only showed his gentleness to his students.

"Is it as difficult as climbing to heaven?" Ma Xiaotao murmured, looking in the direction of the Sun Moon Empire.

But then his eyes hardened. No matter how difficult it was, he was determined to find a way to get Huo Yuhao to help him!

Ma Xiaotao could no longer endure this torment, and she was willing to give anything to get rid of it.

Jing Hongchen led the group from the Sun Moon Empire into the territory of the Sun Moon Empire and was heading towards Mingdu.

Five days have passed since Huo Yuhao left Xingluo City, and he remains unconscious.

The blow that killed Dai Yueheng exhausted too much of Huo Yuhao's strength.

Not only was his spiritual sea completely drained, but even the spiritual energy stored in his second consciousness sea was used up.

With the help of the Life Gold, the spiritual sea of ​​consciousness quickly goes from half to full.

However, the process from having no drops of blood to supporting Huo Yuhao's awakening was inevitably somewhat slow.

Just as everyone was worried, Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Yuhao, you're awake!" Meng Hongchen was the first to exclaim, as she had been taking meticulous care of Huo Yuhao.

Hearing Meng Hongchen's exclamation, the others immediately gathered around.

Huo Yuhao's outburst in the finals saved many of them, including their captain, Ma Rulong.

"Is the match over? Did we win?" The first thing Huo Yuhao asked after waking up was the result of the match.

"You still care about the game result? That scruffy old man from Shrek almost kidnapped you, you know that?!"

"You have a second martial soul, right? Why didn't you tell me? You scared me to death when you went to block the Black Flame Phoenix, you know?"

Meng Hongchen complained about Huo Yuhao, but her words carried an undisguised concern.

Huo Yuhao felt uncomfortable with Meng Hongchen's attitude again and awkwardly spoke:

"It was the dean who forbade me from revealing my second martial soul, otherwise I would have told you immediately. By the way, what's the deal with that slovenly old man trying to kidnap me?"

"It's all because of your second spirit. Shrek Academy has their eye on your Ice Jade Scorpion spirit and wants to capture you to be their student. That old bastard Xuanzi, relying on his strength and Shrek Academy's backing, has always acted recklessly."

The speaker was Jing Hongchen, and his words were filled with intense anger.

Huo Yuhao was the most talented cultivator in the Sun Moon Empire in thousands of years, and Shrek Academy's attempt to snatch him away truly enraged him.

"Dean, I'm sorry, I still revealed the fact that I have a second martial soul."

Huo Yuhao said with shame.

"It's not your fault. I witnessed the whole match. You blocked that Phoenix Soul Master's soul skill to save your teammate."

"Yuhao, I am very pleased that you can break away from the rules and prioritize the lives of your teammates."

"Upon returning, you will begin the next stage of your training. This competition has no results yet; the next one will be your true stage to shine!"
