The soil here was very hard, and it took Huo Yuxi nearly ten minutes to dig a small pit.

She tossed the branch aside, "Spider-spider, you lied. There's nothing here. I'm tired, I want to go back to sleep."

As soon as she finished speaking, a small, glowing object flew out of the pit and shot into Huo Yuxi's brow. The Soul Devouring Spider, seeing this, became a little nervous.

It could only sense that this thing's aura was similar to its own, but it didn't know what it was.

Following the small light cluster into Huo Yuxi's sea of consciousness, it seemed very curious, looking around in all directions.

When it saw the Soul Devouring Spider, it even provocatively circled it twice. The Soul Devouring Spider immediately became enraged, and the spider and the cluster began to fight.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuxi's entire body was as if enveloped by a black mist, the light in her eyes dimming, leaving only an empty shell as she walked aimlessly.

Seeing that she hadn't returned for a long time, Xiao Xiao was about to go out to look for her. When she opened the door, she was startled, "Xixi? You're back. I was just about to come find you."

Huo Yuxi ignored her and walked to the bed to sit down. Xiao Xiao found it strange and followed, patting her shoulder, "Xixi, why are you..."

Upon seeing Huo Yuxi's vacant, lifeless eyes, Xiao Xiao suddenly froze. As if controlled by someone, without even taking off her shoes, she turned and lay down on the bed, slowly closing her eyes.

In the sea of consciousness, the Soul Devouring Spider was chasing the light cluster. A divine maiden statue, radiating a halo, stood in the center, surrounded by a sacred and loving aura.

As if with a sigh of helplessness, she gently sighed. Her tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and the Soul Devouring Spider and the light cluster were instantly frozen in place.

Sensing this sacred aura, the Soul Devouring Spider stood obediently with its head lowered, like a naughty child who had made a mistake.

"You two little ones are too mischievous. The young girl's body cannot withstand it."

A golden light descended from her fingertips, encircling the light cluster. Then, she slowly closed her eyes again.

The Soul Devouring Spider wiped away non-existent cold sweat and exited the sea of consciousness. Seeing Huo Yuxi's appearance, it skillfully climbed onto her cheek, met her eyes, and used its mental power to wake her up.

"Spider-spider?" Huo Yuxi looked around in confusion. "When did we get back?"

Remembering something, her tone lowered, "My illness has relapsed, hasn't it?"

When she was sick as a child, it was like this. Her body was already weak, and after falling asleep, she would unconsciously go out. Once, she almost died in the snow because of it. During that time, Huo Yun'er, afraid something would happen to her, stayed by her side all night.

But since her Martial Soul awakened, this situation had not occurred. What was going on today?

She thought of the light cluster, "Spider-spider, what is that little light cluster?"

'Good stuff. I'll tell you next time. It's very late, go to sleep quickly. You have to get up early for class tomorrow.'

This was the Soul Devouring Spider's usual way of dodging questions. It was childish, but effective.

The next day, the students of First Grade Class One began their new day of physical training. Zhou Yi believed that physical fitness was as important as Soul Power cultivation, so for the next three months, their training would focus on strengthening their physical fitness.

By the end of the day, everyone's fatigue was evident, but their gains were also substantial. After pushing their physical limits, the effectiveness of their Soul Power cultivation improved significantly.

They set up their stalls a little later. After dinner, Huo Yuxi returned to the dormitory to rest, while Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong went to Sea God Lake to run.

The air here was filled with the freshness of moisture. Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His life had become much richer since coming here.

He also had more hope in life, and everything was moving in a good direction.

He activated his Spirit Eyes and looked towards Lake Center Island. Tall buildings gradually appeared in his vision. Was that the Inner Sect? To what extent would he have to cultivate to be able to train there?

At this moment, a streak of fire approached from a distance across the lake. He activated his Spirit Eyes' detection skill and vaguely discerned that it was a person.

"Wang Dong, is that a senior from the Inner Sect?"

"What senior from the Inner Sect? How could a senior from the Inner Sect possibly appear here?" Wang Dong looked at him as if he were an idiot. "They have clear regulations that they cannot come out without orders."

Before they could say anything more, the shadow had already arrived in the center of the lake. He was covered in flames, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly, only the black mask on his face could be vaguely seen.

The person's speed was extremely fast, and in just an instant, he arrived less than a hundred meters from the lake shore. The heatwave hit them. Huo Yuhao realized something was wrong and pulled Wang Dong to turn and run.

Azure wings spread out from behind Wang Dong. Before he could even fly, the person had already arrived behind them, a terrifying aura engulfing their entire bodies.

The surrounding air became distorted, and the two felt as if they were in a sea of fire, unable to move at all, their consciousness even beginning to blur.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was disturbed by the aura of the flames and roared, "Which blind little brat dares to disturb Brother's sleep?"

Its voice came from Huo Yuhao's mouth. Immediately, a dense ice-elemental energy surged from his body. A pure white snowflake imprint appeared on his forehead, and his golden Spirit Eyes turned ice blue.

The area within ten meters was covered by the cold air emanating from him, including the water of Sea God Lake.

"Heh, kid, you've successfully angered Brother."

With a flick of his index finger, extreme cold energy enveloped the figure. The person sensed danger, let out a phoenix cry, and their two yellow, two purple, and two black Soul Rings lit up. A pair of huge fire phoenix wings spread out behind him.

If Huo Yuxi were here, she would definitely recognize that this was her senior, Xiao Tao!

The collision of blazing flames and extreme ice caused the surrounding plants to wither instantly.

"Heh, with just this much strength, you dare to compete with Brother? You're overestimating yourself." "Huo Yuhao" said disdainfully.

With a clench of his palm, the ice-blue energy instantly extinguished the flames, and the fiery red wings dissipated. Ma Xiaotao, who was in mid-air, fell backward and into the lake.

"Huo Yuhao" stopped his pursuit to take revenge, "Consider yourself lucky, kid. Brother will let you off today. Next time we meet, it won't be this easy."

After saying that, the ice-blue color in Huo Yuhao's eyes receded, his body went limp, and he also fainted.

Immediately after, more than a dozen elders arrived, led by a person in white.

Seeing the red figure in the lake, he quickly pulled her up. A rich Soul Power flowed from him into Ma Xiaotao's body. Unsure of what he had discovered, he frowned, "What's going on?"

"Elder Yan, there are two outer sect students over there!" Another middle-aged man came to their side and examined them. "Fortunately, they've only fainted and aren't seriously injured."

"Then I'll trouble Teacher Li to treat them. I'll take Xiaotao back to check her injuries first."

"Alright."

Teacher Li's Martial Soul was the Tree of Life. His Soul Rings unfurled, and green Soul Power flowed into Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong. The remaining power drifted around them, and withered plants began to miraculously revive.

The group arrived quickly and left just as fast. When Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao woke up, they saw a middle-aged man in white standing with his back to them.

"What kind of monster was that just now!"

Wang Dong sat on the ground, holding her head and shaking it.

Hearing the sound, the man turned around and said calmly, "Your bodies are not seriously injured. The Academy hopes you will forget what just happened. Of course, as compensation, we give you this."

Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao reached out to catch what he threw, exchanging a glance.

"Go back and rest. Forget everything that happened and study hard at the Academy!" After saying this, the man had already left.

"Tch, as if this young master lacks this little thing from him?" Wang Dong disdainfully looked down at the item in her hand. "What the heck, it's a Soul Ascension Pill!"
