Eye of Illusory Break, Soaring Dragon Movement, Great Sumeru Palm

The scene fell silent!

After hearing Huo Yuhao's reply, Tang Ya and Bei Bei were both slightly stunned.

Even Tang San, far away in the God Realm, stared blankly in shock.

All of them looked at Huo Yuhao in disbelief, their hearts filled with confusion.

They simply could not understand why Huo Yuhao would still refuse after they had offered such generous terms.

This was completely unbelievable!

Could they have misheard him?

"Yuhao Didi, what did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly."

"Could you please say it again?"

With an incredulous gaze, Tang Ya asked Huo Yuhao once more.

But Huo Yuhao's tone remained firm. "Tang Ya-jie, I'm sorry. I won't join."

Tang Ya immediately drooped like a deflated balloon. "Why? We get along so well, and the Tang Sect is so great."

Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly to himself.

My Tang Ya-jie, it's true that we get along well.

But the Tang Sect is no good place!

Leaving everything else aside, the fact that Tang San was its founder alone made it hard to accept.

After all, Huo Yuhao, who knew the history, was well aware of this.

Tang San was nowhere near as great as the legends claimed.

He was, in fact, an utterly vile man!

Not only had he destroyed Spirit Hall, which maintained order and cared for the common people,

he had also released countless Evil Spirit Masters from the City of Slaughter.

The reason Evil Spirit Masters now ran rampant across the Douluo Continent was largely because of this.

After all, when Spirit Hall still existed, the Angel Spirit specifically hunted Evil Spirit Masters.

But now that Spirit Hall was gone, those Evil Spirit Masters had naturally proliferated unchecked.

Bei Bei asked Huo Yuhao gently, "Yuhao, is there some hidden reason why you can't join the Tang Sect?"

Huo Yuhao could only answer, "Yes. Some special reasons prevent me from joining any sect, but I can't explain them for now."

He could not openly reveal his hostility toward Tang San. After all, Tang San might be watching from the God Realm.

So he could only give a vague response for now.

"I see. That really is a pity."

Bei Bei let out a breath after hearing this.

But he did not continue pressing the matter.

After all, everyone had their own difficulties.

Since Huo Yuhao could not join the Tang Sect because of some issue,

Bei Bei felt that he should not force him.

He turned around and began comforting Tang Ya.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao heard the familiar voice of the system.

Ding! Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing the mission!

Reward obtained: Blind Box ×1!

Open the Blind Box?

"Open it!" Huo Yuhao replied in his mind.

Ding! Blind Box opened!

Congratulations, Host, for obtaining: Self-Created Soul Skill ×3! (Can be used without Soul Rings)

Namely:

Self-Created Eye Technique: Eye of Illusory Break (Exceptional insight. Can enhance the Host's eye power. When mastered to perfection, it grants the power to see through all falsehoods. No disguise can remain hidden before you!)

Self-Created Movement Technique: Soaring Dragon Movement (Extremely agile, with outstanding mobility. When mastered to perfection, it is as swift as a soaring dragon and can even allow one to walk through the air!)

Self-Created Palm Technique: Great Sumeru Palm (Tremendous power. A single palm strike can shatter boulders. When mastered to perfection, one palm can split a mountain!)

The system's voice rang out once again.

After hearing the system's explanation, Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up with excitement.

He could not help comparing these three Self-Created Soul Skills with the Tang Sect's secret arts.

This utterly crushed Tang San!

Eye of Illusory Break crushed Purple Demon Eyes!

Soaring Dragon Movement crushed Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track!

Great Sumeru Palm crushed Profound Jade Hand!

Although Huo Yuhao was missing the Hidden Weapon Grand Unraveling,

what true expert used hidden weapons?

One move was enough to kill someone.

So-called hidden weapons were merely sinister tools weaklings used for sneak attacks!

Not worth mentioning!

"Good, good, good! The rewards are excellent!"

"System, what's the next mission?"

Huo Yuhao asked the system.

His strength was still weak, while Tang San was far too powerful.

Under those circumstances, Huo Yuhao naturally had to firmly seize the advantage of being a transmigrator and use the system to grow stronger without end.

Only then could he defeat Tang San in the future.

Otherwise, if he failed to develop himself properly,

then if Tang San truly abandoned all shame and attacked him in the future, he would have no way to deal with Tang San.

Thus, he once again asked the system about missions.

Ding! New mission issued!

Mission description: Join Shrek Academy!

Mission reward: Blind Box ×1!

"Join Shrek?" Huo Yuhao was slightly stunned upon hearing the system's mission.

He had not really wanted to join Shrek Academy in the first place.

After all, the original Huo Yuhao had met Wang Dong at Shrek Academy, beginning his fated entanglement with Tang Wutong.

But after thinking carefully, Huo Yuhao realized something.

Tang San had already set his sights on him. Even if he did not go to Shrek, would Tang Wutong really not come after him?

With Tang San deliberately arranging things, she would encounter him no matter what.

In that case, I should still prioritize my own growth.

After some thought, Huo Yuhao made his decision.

Since Tang San had already set his sights on him, he could not evade Tang San no matter what.

If that was the case, he might as well follow the original path. At least that way, he roughly knew how Tang San would make his moves.

With the advantage of intelligence, he could deal with Tang San more calmly.

Otherwise, if he took another path, not only would he lose the system rewards, but Tang San would be in the light while he himself was in the dark, leaving him vulnerable to hidden attacks.

Besides, without the system's help, how could someone from the Douluo Plane possibly defeat Tang San? Especially when he was being watched the entire time. Huo Yuhao felt that even with the system's help, this war would be difficult to win.

"So this is my only option."

Huo Yuhao let out a breath.

Then he thought with some frustration.

"The problem is that it won't be easy to get in without a letter of recommendation."

Since he had not joined the Tang Sect, he no longer had a place at Shrek Academy.

In that case, to take Shrek Academy's entrance examination, he would need a recommendation letter from the city lord.

Ding! Mission item: City Lord's Recommendation Letter ×1, distributed.

Huo Yuhao's eyes brightened. "Now everything is settled."

He stroked his chin and thought, "Next, I need to keep a low profile and grow stronger."

"Once I've grown strong enough, I'll deal with Tang San properly."

Meanwhile.

In the God Realm.

After seeing that Tang Ya and Bei Bei had failed to bring Huo Yuhao into the Tang Sect,

Tang San flew into a rage and cursed.

"Two useless fools! You can't even handle something this simple!"

"You let a duck that was already in your mouth fly away?"

Tang San gritted his teeth in fury.

"That brat refused to join because he hasn't seen the power of my Tang Sect's secret arts for himself."

"But what if I let him learn just how formidable my Tang Sect's secret arts are?"

"I refuse to believe he'll still be unwilling to join."

At this point, an idea suddenly struck him, and his eyes lit up.

"I've got it."

"This time, I refuse to believe you won't take the bait!"
