I teach judo in Tokyo.

No, he seems to have recited some poems in Chinese before.

Fu Hua's beautiful eyes flickered, and she stared at him for a long while.

Then he nodded: "You...you must be Atobe Sousuke...would it be convenient for us to talk?"

***

Chapter 331 The Codes Engraved in DNA

Atobe Sousuke looked at his "fellow townsman" with a friendly expression and nodded with a smile.

"Of course, no problem. There are too many people here. If you don't mind, let's discuss this in detail at my dojo?"

Fu Hua nodded quietly: "Okay."

Sosuke smiled and gestured, leading Fu Hua back.

The group of girls around him exchanged glances, but they all knew that Fu Hua, as a super strong person, must have something important to discuss with Zong Jie, so they didn't interrupt him.

Then, after leaving Senso-ji Temple and walking through Kaminarimon Gate, Motoko, Saki, and Yumi all took the initiative to say goodbye to Atobe Sousuke. During the New Year, unmarried Japanese girls traditionally spend the New Year at home with their families, so they cannot stay at the Byakuya Dojo.

This period usually lasts for the entire first ten days of January, up to the 10th.

Motoko and Yumi were fine, but Yotsuba Saki reluctantly mustered up her courage and hugged Sousuke.

Clearly, the little classmate's attempt to strike while the iron was hot and get intimate with the dojo master failed again.

......

In the side hall of the White Night Dojo.

Sosuke and Fuka sat facing each other.

"Please have some tea."

The widow placed two cups of hot tea on the table and smiled gently at Fu Hua.

Fu Hua nodded politely to Kuno Maruko and expressed his gratitude in fairly fluent Japanese: "Thank you, Ms. Kuno, you've worked hard."

"No, no, Your Excellency is a distinguished guest. I am afraid I have nothing suitable to offer you." The widow waved her hands repeatedly.

Then she looked at Sosuke: "Well then, Sosuke-kun, I'll go upstairs first, you two can chat?"

She gestured to Sosuke, then deftly opened the door and left.

As for Miyano Ai and Ryougi Ori, seeing that Sousuke had important business to attend to, they naturally returned to their upstairs room ahead of time.

"I apologize for disturbing you tonight," Fu Hua said apologetically.

“No, just like Maruko said, it is indeed quite rare for a distinguished guest like you to come to my dojo.” Sousuke smiled slightly.

Then, he switched to Chinese and said, "Your Excellency, let's communicate in Chinese."

“If possible, that would be even better. I’m not very comfortable speaking Japanese.” Fu Hua’s eyes flickered.

Then, she praised him, saying, "Lord Atobe, your Chinese... sounds better than many of ours. If I didn't know better, I would doubt that you are actually Chinese."

"Of course, sometimes I feel like I was Chinese in my past life, haha!" Sosuke scratched his head.

Hmm... that's really the truth!

Fu Hua smiled faintly and began with simple pleasantries: "Lord Atobe... that Miss Kuno from earlier, is she also your disciple?"

Sousuke smiled and nodded: "That's right, not only that, but all the girls you met today, except for Miyano Ai and Aoi, are also my disciples."

Fu Hua: "Your judgment is truly remarkable. If I'm not mistaken, your disciples have exceptional 'natural talent,' and they are geniuses that one in a million might not even be seen."

"The one with the best potential is still that child named Ryougi Ori, I can't even see through her..."

Sōsuke waved his hand: "Luck, just luck. I think Lord Fuhua is truly unfathomable..."

His gaze sharpened slightly as he said this.

He really wasn't exaggerating at all, because the girl's flamboyant appearance was ridiculously over-the-top.

【Mount Taixu: Extravagance】

[Possesses entry 2: Moth Chasing the Flame (Minor Effect)]

[Current Status: This person is from Japan, yet I feel I can trust them. It's strange...]

Wow, a super strong person with four attributes, and each attribute seems to contain some rather outrageous meaning.

Moreover, the girl's panel is full of question marks, which makes her seem quite extraordinary.

Although in terms of strength, he is probably still inferior to Furinji Tenjin.

However, judging from that bunch of things with "minor effects," if there is a possibility that they will "take effect," they might really be no less powerful than the Celestial Elder.

Is this girl a "wild race" from the other side of China?

Or perhaps some other race he had never heard of?

Sosuke calmly withdrew his gaze. He had previously been detected when using the system's function to view people's panels while observing super-strong individuals like Storm.

The girl in front of us is not an enemy for the time being, so we shouldn't risk provoking her.

He smiled at Fu Hua: "Lord Fu Hua, then I'll get straight to the point. What... do you want to see me about?"

"Mm." Fu Hua nodded.

She paused for a moment, then said decisively, "Lord Atobe, on behalf of the Taixu Temple of Mount Taixu in Shenzhou, I wish to establish a cooperative relationship with you."

"Taixu Temple?"

Sosuke frowned and said with a puzzled look, "It sounds like some kind of Taoist temple."

Fu Hua nodded calmly: "In daily life, Taixu Temple does indeed also function as a Taoist temple, providing incense offerings for the surrounding people."

"However, the actual Taixu Temple is an organization composed of superhumans, and is uniformly governed by the official agency 'Shenzhou Watch'."

She glanced at Sosuke: "The nature of Shenzhou Watch is similar to your Anomaly Countermeasures Bureau. Its main function is to comprehensively monitor all 'superhumans' within our territory."

“I understand.” Atobe Sousuke stroked his chin. “So, Shenzhou Watch is equivalent to the officially designated ‘Martial Arts Alliance Leader,’ and Taixu Temple is one of the major sects in the martial arts world?”

Fu Hua was genuinely surprised.

She originally thought that Atobe Sousuke was just a Chinese language enthusiast who had studied Chinese.

Unexpectedly, Sosuke's insights and the content of his speech clearly demonstrated that he was not only "good at Chinese", but also had a truly extraordinary understanding of "Chinese culture".

Terms like "martial arts alliance leader" and "sect" are rarely associated with people who are not native Chinese speakers.

Fu Hua stared at Zong Jie for a long time before suddenly asking, "Is that Imperial Jade Liquor?"

Sousuke instinctively replied, "One..."

and many more.

His face suddenly froze: "Fu Hua, what are you talking about?"

Fu Hua's gaze became even more sinister: "Odd changes, even remains the same?"

Sosuke paused slightly, then said awkwardly, "Why do you keep telling me these rhymes, Fu Hua? If I weren't a China enthusiast, I really wouldn't be able to answer you."

Fu Hua looked at Zong Jie with a deep gaze.

Then, Youyou asked, "Comrade, which department are you from?"

"Hehe, Your Excellency Fu Hua, what are you laughing at?"

A few beads of sweat appeared on Sosuke's forehead.

Chapter 332 Legend

Faced with Fu Hua's questioning, Sosuke scratched the back of his head and said, "I'm just an ordinary fan of Chinese culture. Fu Hua, stop messing around and get down to business."

Fu Hua stared at him for a long time, then nodded: "Alright, let's get back to business."

"According to our local custom, even though this so-called 'King of Fighters' tournament is a world-class competition, it is almost impossible for the strongest fighters from our region to travel to other places to participate."

Fu Hua said calmly.

"The main reason I came here this time is that, according to intelligence from headquarters, the forces behind this competition, 'The Serpent of the World' and 'Luga Group,' intend to use the competition as cover to carry out some forbidden operation..."

“A forbidden operation…” Sousuke frowned. “What are they planning? To gather a crowd and then carry out a terrorist attack?”

“No…” Fu Hua shook his head.

She paused for a few seconds, then looked directly into Sousuke's eyes: "They...want to change the world."

“Changing the world, that’s too broad a statement,” Sosuke said, stroking his chin. “Let me put it more clearly.”

Fu Hua paused slightly: "What I'm about to say might sound like nonsense. You can decide for yourself whether to believe it or not."

“A long, long time ago, maybe tens of thousands of years ago... back then, this planet was vastly different from what it is now.”

Fu Hua's voice was crisp, yet it carried a certain ancient quality.

"That was probably the dividing line between 'Homo sapiens' and 'modern humans.' According to scattered, unreliable, and secretive ancient books and even murals in ruins,... during that period, our planet briefly existed... um..."

She seemed to be carefully choosing her tone, then looked calmly at Sosuke and said something that made Sosuke scratch his head.

According to those scattered and unreliable "legends," many "gods," or rather "immortals," appeared in the world during that brief period...

"emmm......"

Sosuke made an awkward expression in response to Fuka's words.

Is this extravagance meant to tell him some mythical story?

However, seeing her so serious and earnest appearance, Sosuke felt like he had nowhere to complain.

Fu Hua seemed to have anticipated Zong Jie's reaction, and she calmly continued, "Immortality, immense strength, and the ability to use all sorts of supernatural powers and spells... In the eyes of those uncivilized ancient people, these people were naturally no different from gods."

Before Sosuke could speak, she continued, "However, the vast majority of those 'gods' are not 'saviors' who love the world, but 'demons' who enslave ordinary people."

She glanced at Sousuke, whose face was full of sarcastic remarks: "These 'demons' are just madmen."

"Wait!" Sosuke couldn't help but interrupt.

He said sincerely, "Fu Hua, to be honest, the madmen I've heard of and the madmen you've described seem to be completely different."

Fu Hua nodded calmly: "That's normal. I think the 'mad race' you've heard of refers to those surviving 'mad race descendants,' while what I'm talking about are the 'ancestors' from that 'special period' tens of thousands of years ago."

"Is there a difference...?" Sosuke asked directly.

"In terms of 'race' itself, there's no difference," he said matter-of-factly. "However, the 'world' is different."

She looked directly at Atobe Sousuke: "As the Berserkers suddenly appeared across the planet, a strange thing also appeared in the world, a strange 'factor.'"

Sousuke's eyelids twitched: "What?"

Fu Hua said softly, "Qi, magic, energy, chakra, fluctuations—you can call it whatever you want, the name doesn't matter..."

boom!

Sosuke stared wide-eyed at the girl sitting upright opposite him.

His mouth was dry, and he asked, word by word, "You mean...super...extraordinary?"

Fu Hua nodded.

Sosuke felt that either he had gone mad, or the world had gone mad.

He forced himself to calm down.

After all, if we're talking about 'extraordinary,' he himself is probably the 'most extraordinary' person in the world.

On his forehead, there was a pale purple Yin seal that stored a large amount of "energy".
