Master and Disciple Converse

"Where... where am I?"

In a simply decorated wooden house, a sexy and mature red-haired woman slowly got up from the bed, touching her head.

"Xiaotao, you're awake!"

Yan Shaozhe, who was guarding the bedside, couldn't hide his excitement as he saw his proud disciple wake up.

"Teacher!" Ma Xiaotao's eyes lit up with excitement when she saw her teacher there upon waking.

Her teacher being by her side meant that she, who had lost consciousness from the fever, probably hadn't caused any major trouble.

After checking on Ma Xiaotao, Yan Shaozhe's expression turned serious.

"You troublesome girl, do you know how much trouble you almost caused?"

"I warned you, didn't I? I told you not to cultivate until I found a way to suppress your evil fire again?"

"This time, it was a blessing in disguise. You almost killed three students from our outer court!"

"The recent situation is also quite sensitive, Xiaotao, Xiaotao. If it weren't for a male student with an Extreme Ice Martial Soul happening to be here!"

"This time, people would have really died!"

Ma Xiaotao immediately knelt down with a thud. "Teacher, this disciple knows she was wrong!"

"I was just anxious, you know how long it's been since I could cultivate normally!"

"Seeing all my former companions reach new realms of cultivation while I'm stuck here, this disciple is unwilling!"

As Ma Xiaotao was processing Yan Shaozhe's words, she suddenly had a realization.

"Wait... Teacher, what did you say? A male student with the power of extreme ice stopped my rampage!"

Ma Xiaotao quickly sat cross-legged and found that her Soul Power could circulate normally, just like any other Soul Master.

Normally, her evil fire would flare up the moment she cultivated, but now it was as docile as a child's.

"Teacher, where is that student?"

Ma Xiaotao's voice rang out in surprise. Being able to suppress her evil fire to this extent meant Ma Xiaotao wouldn't have to worry about the evil fire for at least half a year.

In just one minute, she wanted to get all the information about this male student from her teacher. She didn't want to lose this state she was in.

Yan Shaozhe sighed inwardly as he looked at his disciple, who was repentant one second and demanding information the next.

"Xiaotao, I've warned you many times to change your rash personality!"

"Besides, your evil fire has just been suppressed. Why are you so eager to inquire about someone else?"

"Also, didn't you just attack him not long ago? Aren't you going to him now just to be met with a cold shoulder?"

"Wait a while, after he's mostly forgotten about this incident, then you go find him."

"Remember to be sincere and restrain your temper. Otherwise, if he refuses to help you suppress it, your teacher might really have to sign a contract with him!"

Ma Xiaotao stuck out her tongue. "It's not as serious as you say."

"If he refuses to help me, this young lady has plenty of strength and means!"

Yan Shaozhe wanted to change his disciple's habit of always resorting to brute force.

"How many times can you use that method of reasoning with people? What if he can't stand it and drops out of school?"

"I must warn you, this student has Twin Martial Souls, and the other one is a Body Martial Soul."

"If you push him towards the Body Sect, not only will I be in trouble, but you won't have a good life either!"

"Body Martial Soul?" Ma Xiaotao was shocked to hear about Huo Yuhao's talent. "A Body Martial Soul plus an Extreme Martial Soul, is that even possible?"

Yan Shaozhe said, "What do you care if it's possible or not? Just remember what I told you, if you drive him away."

"Our teacher-disciple relationship in the academy will be ruined... we won't even have a future. Be careful this time, understand?"

"Of course, if you can win him over, your teacher will fully support you!"

Yan Shaozhe looked at his disciple with affection. Her beauty was second to none.

Huo Yuhao's background was also spotless. Ten thousand years ago, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were also among the Shrek Seven Devils who fought side by side.

Thinking this, Yan Shaozhe realized that his disciple and Huo Yuhao had a strong connection.

"No," Ma Xiaotao refused Yan Shaozhe's suggestion outright.

"I refuse to marry someone I don't like just to suppress my evil fire!"

Yan Shaozhe smiled faintly. "Don't be so sure. That Huo Yuhao is the son of the White Tiger Duke, and your ancestors had a deep connection."

"While you were unconscious, I investigated everything about him!"

"He is the legitimate illegitimate son of the White Tiger Duke. It seems that because of his mother or some other reason, this child has been following his mother's surname since childhood!"

"So, we won't have any burden in pursuing him. The position of White Tiger Duke in the future has nothing to do with him anyway."

"If you can become a couple with him, I believe everyone will be happy to see this outcome!"

Ma Xiaotao said, "So, he's also Dai Yueheng's half-brother!"

"Then it's even less likely I'd fall for him. That guy and I are from the same generation!"

"If I'm going to marry Huo Yuhao, I'd be a generation younger than him!"

What is she thinking? Ma Xiaotao's face became filled with killing intent.

"This guy is Dai Yueheng's brother. Fine, that guy."

"He has a brother with an ultimate ice and snow Martial Soul at home, and he didn't even mention it to me."

"He's had his eyes on my position as Shrek's captain for a long time!"

Ma Xiaotao now wished she could rush out immediately, find Dai Yueheng, and beat that guy up.

Despite years of friendship as classmates, Ma Xiaotao was later unable to cultivate due to the evil fire.

He had a brother with an ultimate ice and snow attribute at home, and he didn't even mention it to her.

Yan Shaozhe advised, "Alright, don't be angry with him anymore."

"It's understandable that the Star Luo Empire would keep it a secret when they finally produced an ultimate attribute genius."

"Especially since this child only awakened his Martial Soul at the age of nine."

"Plus, this child also possesses another Body Sect Martial Soul. If word got out!"

"Whether Huo Yuhao would end up at our Shrek is still up for debate."

"Don't forget how domineering those people are. A Body Sect genius with an ultimate Martial Soul, how could they escape their grasp!"

"This is already the best arrangement!"

Yan Shaozhe was right. If Shrek and the Body Sect were to fight over him, Huo Yuhao would most likely be taken by the Body Sect.

Xuan Zi couldn't defeat Du Busi, let alone snatch people from him, unless Mu En joined forces with him.

Ma Xiaotao, born fearless, thought, My Shrek is invincible, and Elder Xuan is also invincible.

"Is it really that serious? The Body Sect is just a minor obstacle. Our Shrek might still be able to snatch him from them!"

"You child!" Yan Shaozhe knew his disciple's temper.

"In any case, you should go find Huo Yuhao a few months from now!"

"This time, to help you make up for your losses, the school paid a price of six Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones!"

Ma Xiaotao's red lips parted slightly. "Six Soul Bones? He's too greedy! To demand six Soul Bones."

Yan Shaozhe shook his head. "To be able to recruit such a genius, six Soul Bones is nothing."

"The academy is willing to pay this price this time because you've provoked someone you shouldn't have!"
