Yan Shaozhe, You Shameless Thing
A huge open space, packed with people!
As Yan Shaozhe arrived, countless passing students flocked to him, quickly surrounding him completely.
But right now.
This area, usually bustling with people, was eerily quiet.
When the students heard Huo Yuhao's final reply...
They all stood frozen in place like statues, mouths agape, eyes wide, faces filled with horror!
In their eyes, Huo Yuhao was simply insane!
After all, the conditions Yan Shaozhe just offered were incredibly good!
Three Inner Court spots at the Shrek Academy
To ensure that Huo Yuhao can reach the Titled Douluo by the age of forty.
He was promised a complete set of Soul Bone and a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.
These conditions are simply unbeatable, okay?
But Huo Yuhao still refused!
Therefore, everyone present was stunned after hearing Huo Yuhao's answer.
They really don't understand.
Why did Huo Yuhao still refuse, even after all that?
Is he really an idiot?
"No way?"
"Yuhao doesn't even want to go to the Martial Soul Department?"
"Although I know he values relationships and is grateful for the help he received from the Soul Tool Department, why wouldn't he take such a good opportunity?"
"This is so irrational."
Xu Sanshi couldn't help but speak up as well.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Jiang Nannan snort coldly from the side.
"What do you know? Yuhao Didi is right to do this. If he easily betrays the Soul Tool Department for personal gain, how is he any different from those treacherous people who abandon their principles for profit? I stand with Yuhao Didi on this matter."
Tang Ya, standing to the side, also waved her little fist in agreement, saying, "That's right, that's what I thought too! Well done, Yuhao Didi!"
Bei Bei smiled wryly and said, "It's a pity that this would waste so many resources. Moreover, Dong'er and Xiao Xiao will have to fight for their own spots in the Inner Court."
Xiao Xiao, standing to the side, shook her head upon hearing this. "If it means sacrificing Yuhao's freedom of choice in exchange for an Inner Court spot, I'd rather not have it. I believe Dong'er feels the same way."
Xu Sanshi's lips twitched upon hearing everyone's replies.
On the other side.
Yan Shaozhe's expression became even more shocked.
Even now, he still hasn't accepted that Huo Yuhao rejected him.
He believed that if he were in Huo Yuhao's position, he would definitely accept it.
Why would you give up such a great deal just for a spot as a Core Disciple of the Soul Tool Department?
What is Huo Yuhao after?
Yan Shaozhe really doesn't understand.
The path of cultivation is inherently about going where the benefits are greatest. Besides, both the Martial Soul Department and the Soul Tool Department belong to the Shrek Academy; is it really necessary for Huo Yuhao to do this?
Therefore, at this moment, Yan Shaozhe really doubted whether he had misheard.
He looked at Huo Yuhao with an embarrassed expression and said, "Yuhao, did I hear that right? Could you repeat your answer?"
Huo Yuhao let out a breath and said, "I'm sorry, Dean, I will not join the Martial Soul Department."
He said earnestly in front of everyone, "Back then, the Soul Tool Department chose to accept me when no one believed in me. And they wholeheartedly nurtured me."
"I, Huo Yuhao, will never forget this kindness."
"The conditions offered by the Martial Soul Department are quite good, but unfortunately, I cannot let my teacher, who believes in me, down for these reasons."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience erupted in uproar!
Many students were initially puzzled by Huo Yuhao's rejection of Yan Shaozhe's invitation.
But at that moment, they only felt a sense of awe and respect.
Because of Huo Yuhao's choice, to be honest, they really couldn't do it.
One could even say that Huo Yuhao's choice was a kind of foolish loyalty.
But that's reality. Sometimes, when you know something is absolutely impossible to accomplish, someone else does it anyway, and then you'll feel respect for them.
And this is exactly what happened to Huo Yuhao this time.
Therefore, many students from the Outer Court Shrek Academy began to show their respect after hearing his words.
Yan Shaozhe's face was extremely grim.
He took a step forward, just about to say something more.
But a furious voice suddenly rang out. "Yan Shaozhe, have you no shame?"
Qian Duoduo suddenly arrived, followed by Fan Yu and He Caitou. After arriving at the scene, he glared angrily at Yan Shaozhe.
Yan Shaozhe, however, was not afraid at all. He was wary of Xian Lin'er, but that did not mean he was wary of Qian Duoduo. Xian Lin'er was not here, and Qian Duoduo alone was clearly not someone he could hesitate to do anything about.
Therefore, Yan Shaozhe still looked confident and said with a smile, "Old Qian, what brings you here?"
Qian Duoduo ignored him and instead turned to Huo Yuhao, saying:
"Yuhao, I heard everything you just said."
"You did a good job."
"Don't worry, what their Martial Soul Department can give you, our Soul Tool Department can give you too, and even more."
"You know how we've treated you."
Qian Duoduo smiled and said to Huo Yuhao.
But Yan Shaozhe to the side, curled his lip in disdain.
"Old Qian, don't make such big promises. Others may not know the strength of your Soul Tool Department, but do you think I don't? Don't take advantage of the children's ignorance and make empty promises. That's irresponsible."
"What I just promised, your Soul Tool Department can't do. Putting aside everything else, a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast isn't something you can just kill on a whim. Without a cultivation level of 95 or higher, you can't be confident. But I happen to be 95."
Then Yan Shaozhe to Huo Yuhao, who was standing to the side, and said:
"Yuhao, if you think that the benefits I just mentioned can also be given to you by the Soul Tool Department, then you are very wrong."
"Let me give you an example. In a one-on-one situation, if I were to spar with Qian Duoduo, the vice dean of the Soul Tool Department in front of you, and I were to give him a handicap of one hand, he wouldn't stand a chance. He's also Titled Douluo. Ask him if he can help you hunt down Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"
Qian Duoduo felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger after hearing this. Although it was the truth, he didn't expect Yan Shaozhe to show him no respect in front of everyone. So he was furious.
Instead, Huo Yuhao stepped forward at this moment. He said to Yan Shaozhe, "Yan Shaozhe, although the conditions you have offered are very tempting, this is not the first time I have said that I will not join the Martial Soul Department because of those benefits."
"Whether or not the Soul Tool Department can ultimately help me obtain those things, I don't care, but I will not betray the Soul Tool Department, much less betray my teacher."
Yan Shaozhe frowned upon hearing this and asked, "Who is your teacher? Fan Yu?"
Huo Yuhao was about to answer.
But at that very moment, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared.
"I'm his teacher, what's wrong with you, Yan Shaozhe? You untrustworthy bastard, you stole my student and dared to humiliate my husband in front of me. Do you want to fight me?"
Xian Lin'er's figure suddenly appeared, and powerful Soul Power surged out of her body, spreading outwards in an extremely frantic manner.
Yan Shaozhe had initially appeared calm and collected.
But at this moment, with the sudden appearance of Xian Lin'er, who was going all out and seemed ready to start a fight at any moment.
He was a little scared, and couldn't help but twitch his lips as he looked ahead with disbelief on his face.
"Huo Yuhao is your apprentice? When did this happen?"
