Chapter 139 Everyone has a bright future

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the moment the old man saw the face of the person coming clearly, he immediately stopped the White Tiger Guards behind him, a happy expression appeared on his face, he quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully.

"Young Master, why are you here?"

Dai Yuheng smiled faintly and replied familiarly, "Mr. Du, long time no see. I wonder if my father is still in the army?"

Durex shook his head with a look of regret on his face.

"Master, if you had come a few days earlier, you could have seen the Marshal. Now the Marshal has been summoned back to Xingluo City by the Xingluo Royal Family."

After hearing this answer, Dai Yuheng was completely relieved.

Durex hesitated for a moment, first looking at Chen Zifeng beside Dai Yuheng, then looking past him at the tents that had been set up not far away. "Young Master, who are the people next to you?"

"The person next to me is my good friend Chen Zifeng," Dai Yuheng introduced with a smile.

"Those are my classmates and teachers at Shrek Academy. Let's not talk about this anymore, Mr. Du. Let's go back to the army together first. There are some things I need to know from you."

When Durex heard that the visitors were from Shrek Academy, his eyes narrowed, but he still responded with a smile: "Indeed, then, Master, and this young friend Chen, please follow me."

Not long after, Dai Yuheng and Chen Zifeng followed Durex's footsteps, passed through the heavily guarded military camp, and arrived at a spacious tent.

Dai Yuheng naturally sat down in the main seat and asked Chen Zifeng to sit next to him.

During this time, Durex left for a while, and when he came back, his face became a little solemn.

"Young Master, according to the intel you requested regarding the Death Hand bandit gang, we have the latest information here. According to a soul master who was escorting a caravan that managed to escape a few days ago, the leader of that bandit gang is an evil soul master who calls himself the 'Messenger of Death' and possesses the extremely rare corpse explosion soul skill.

If too many corpses were left on the battlefield, or if the force was confined to a small space, it could unleash a force no weaker than that of a Soul Saint. "Master, you must warn your classmates to be extremely careful when the time comes."

Although the relationship between Shrek Academy and the White Tiger Duke's Mansion is now tense, the Duke himself has always been dissatisfied with the Shrek Supervisory Group for extending its hands too far and becoming the so-called supervisors of the continent.

But it is naturally a good thing for the peace of Douluo Continent that Shrek Academy can send students to eliminate the evil soul masters. Therefore, Durex would not think of harming the students of Shrek Academy with intelligence.

As Dai Yuheng listened to Durex's narration, a hint of coldness quietly gathered in his eyes.

Huo Yuhao's talent has completely exceeded his imagination.

Can the White Tiger Duke's Mansion and his father really suppress such a person?

Even if he didn't consider himself at that time, how could his father make a suitable decision given the irreconcilable hatred between his mother and Huo Yuhao?

For the sake of his mother, he had to keep Huo Yuhao, this huge hidden danger, completely in the Mingdou Mountains.

And now this so-called messenger of death is just like a sleepy person finding his pillow, coming at the perfect time.

Thinking of this, Dai Yuheng glanced at the somewhat uneasy Chen Zifeng again, and said calmly: "Mr. Du, my friend and I haven't had dinner yet, why don't you go first..."

"Young Master is right. I was negligent," Durex replied with a smile. "You and Young Friend Chen, please sit here for a while and have some tea. I'll ask the stoker to prepare a good meal for you two."

After saying that, he turned and left the tent.

Seeing that Durex had left and they were the only two left in the tent, Dai Yuheng let out a sigh filled with regret.

"Zifeng, I'm really sorry that I can't participate in the Soul Master Competition with you this time. We have worked hard together to prepare for the competition for so many years.

"But with just a few words from the academy, a student from another academy took our place, making all our years of hard work go to waste. I really feel unfair for you."

Chen Zifeng had not expected Dai Yuheng to care about him so much. He was deeply moved and finally managed to say something after a long while:

"There's nothing I can do. After all, I'm not as skilled as him. Even if I were to fight Huo Yuhao, I'd definitely be defeated miserably."

"I know the rule of meritocracy is appropriate everywhere, but the academy's actions are too chilling for our hearts."

Dai Yuheng's expression became increasingly distressed. Seeing that Chen Zifeng's emotions had been successfully stirred by him, he also frowned and continued:

"Zifeng, don't you want to return to the main team and participate in the Soul Master Competition that represents the supreme glory of the young generation of the continent?

You know, our school has always been the champion, and the title of champion is of great help to our future development, isn't it?"

Chen Zifeng's breathing became a little rapid, and he asked anxiously: "Yuheng, is there any way you can help me?"

Dai Yuheng showed a confident smile on his face: "Of course there are ways, even those that are far away or right in front of us. It just depends on whether you dare to do it."

Of course, Chen Zifeng was not stupid. Putting Dai Yuheng's words together with the information just now, he instantly understood what was going on. He suddenly stood up from his chair and flatly refused.

"No! If I do that, how can I be worthy of the honor of Shrek Academy and the responsibility entrusted to us by the Supervisory Committee?"

Dai Yuheng was not in a hurry. He just slowly picked up the teacup on the table beside him and took a sip. He waited until Chen Zifeng's excitement calmed down a little before he spoke slowly.

"It was the academy that wronged us first. Besides, we're not going to kill them. They'll just suffer some minor injuries and have to miss the tournament. And you can naturally come back as a substitute for the regulars."

"Zifeng, you have to understand that without venom, there is no true hero. The glory after success will truly belong to you. Do you want to live in obscurity for the rest of your life, or do you want to stand on the championship podium with me?"

Chen Zifeng looked at Dai Yuheng, who had become somewhat unfamiliar, and said hesitantly, "By then... we'll really only cause minor injuries to others, right?"

Dai Yuheng stood up, walked over to Chen Zifeng, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Of course, with Dean Yan around, nothing serious will happen. When the time comes, just follow my lead."

Seeing that Chen Zifeng seemed to be still hesitant, Dai Yueheng said softly: "Zifeng, after this competition, I will choose to graduate from the academy, and then I will definitely join the military to accumulate experience.

With my brother now disabled, I, as the eldest son of the White Tiger Dukedom, will undoubtedly inherit the vast Western Army. When the time comes, perhaps you and I, brothers, can create something new here."

Chen Zifeng's eyes flickered as he thought about everything he had just seen in the military camp. The strong murderous aura had greatly enhanced the cultivation of his martial soul, the Soul-Chasing Sword.

His original plan was to join the army after graduating from the academy and to concentrate his sword intent through the atmosphere of corpses and blood brought by war.

Now, after hearing Dai Yuheng's promise, the last bit of hesitation in Chen Zifeng's heart completely disappeared.

He nodded vigorously.

At this moment, the soldier that Dureth had instructed happened to bring in a sumptuous meal.

Seeing this, Dai Yuheng laughed and patted Chen Zifeng on the shoulder again.

"Brother, come! Let's have a drink first, and then we can discuss it in detail."

……

The firelight danced in the night, casting warm light on the faces of those sitting around. The rich aroma spread in the cool night breeze, making people's mouths whet.

In the area between the two campfires, a set of professional kitchen utensils and a variety of seasonings were placed. Huo Yuhao was busy shuttling between them, while Jiang Nannan assisted him.

This place is located dozens of miles away from the Western Army Group, so there is no need to worry too much about security issues.

In addition, the food that the inner court disciples usually brought with them when they went out, although nutritious, tasted really hard to swallow.

In order to prevent the Silver Dragon King, whose appetite he had spoiled, from getting upset, Huo Yuhao naturally took on the responsibility of preparing dinner for everyone.

Fortunately, for soul masters, finding firewood and food is not a difficult task.

At this time, the faces of several girls sitting around one of the bonfires were a little flushed, and it was not known whether it was because of the flickering flames or because of something else.

Just like before, they were all eager to help Huo Yuhao deal with the wild game they had just caught, but ended up being in a panic and almost made a mess of the situation.

Ling Luochen demonstrated his exquisite soul control and in less than a few minutes, he used the ice element to cleanly process the game.

This move left the girls present stunned.

Especially Zhang Lexuan, although she knows some simple cooking skills, she really has no idea how to prepare this kind of wild game.

The fragrance in the air grew stronger. Xiao Xiao swallowed subconsciously and looked at Wang Dong'er, who was staring at the firelight in a daze. She whispered, "Dong'er, did you count the number of tents we set up just now?"

Their tents, for example, were all specially sponsored by Ning Tian. Not only were they more sophisticated and comfortable inside, but they were also much more beautiful in style than the standard tents used by the inner courtyard students.

Wang Dong'er was brought back to her senses by Xiao Xiao's words. She turned her head slightly, glanced at the tents behind her, and counted silently in her mind.

"Five, what's wrong, Xiaoxiao."

Xiao Xiao looked at her good sister who had become somewhat dazed since the last treasure appreciation meeting, and explained helplessly:

"Teacher Gu Yuena just occupied one tent to catch up on some sleep, and Yuhao will definitely take one too. Do you think the remaining three tents will be enough for the seven of us?"

These tents were all designed for two people, and even if the girls were petite, squeezing three of them in would always be uncomfortable. Not to mention that Gu Yuena didn't like sleeping with other girls.

Wang Dong'er was stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously said, "Then our extra person can go and borrow a tent from Teacher Zhang Lexuan."

Xiaoxiao moved her little butt a little closer to Wang Donger, with a somewhat speechless expression on her face.

"Dong'er, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"

Xiaoxiao couldn't help but complain in her heart, could it be that when they were in the private room of the teahouse before, Wang Dong'er really just wanted to play Four-Country Military Chess?

Before Xiaoxiao could figure it out, a bowl full of fragrant broth was placed in front of her.

Huo Yuhao, who had been secretly observing the developments here, naturally couldn't let Xiao Xiao continue thinking, otherwise something extremely embarrassing would definitely happen tonight.

Why did Gu Yuena go to catch up on her sleep? It was so that she would have the energy to do bad things to herself at night.

If one of these girls suddenly came over, he would probably have to use simulated soul skills to cover up for the entire night, just like he did with Zhu Lu last time.

"Don't worry," Huo Yuhao handed the bowl of soup to Xiao Xiao and lied without blushing or beating his heart.

"Gu Yuena won't sleep in that tent at night. She's a nocturnal creature and has more energy at night. You can just go to sleep in that tent when the time comes."

After Xiao Xiao took the bowl, her bright eyes looked at Huo Yuhao suspiciously.

After a long time, she sighed softly and said, "Yuhao, Teacher Gu Yuena probably won't come to see you at night."

Huo Yuhao, who was about to hand another bowl of broth to Wang Donger, nearly spilled it with a shake of his hand. He smiled sheepishly, "How could that be? She might be keeping watch for us at night. After all, she's our team leader."

A bright smile suddenly broke out on Xiao Xiao's face, and she giggled.

"That's really nice."

What, you said the tents are enough?

Xiao Xiao said that people should not be too rigid. As long as the seat next to Huo Yuhao is empty, then one should try hard to squeeze in.

Jiang Nannan, who was also helping Huo Yuhao pass on his work, naturally heard their conversation.

Rather, the girls sitting around here had heard it clearly, and each of them had a different expression on their face.

Gu Yuena, who sensed that Huo Yuhao had finished dinner, walked out of the tent with light steps.

She looked at Huo Yuhao's eyes that seemed to be asking for help, and immediately understood what he meant and gave him a "yes" gesture.

Huo Yuhao felt relieved. It seemed that Gu Yuena would not come to fight him for three hundred rounds tonight.

Then even if these girls really had a sudden whim and ran into their tent, nothing extremely embarrassing would happen.

Huo Yuhao only felt that the food in his hand became sweeter.

Gu Yuena, who was concentrating on eating the dragon and quickly replenishing her strength, said that tonight would be another sleepless and unprecedented battle.

Zhu Lu and Cui Yajie looked at each other, their pretty faces slightly red, especially Cui Yajie, who pressed her hand on her lower abdomen, as if she could still recall the warmth from last time.
