It turned out they were two pitiable people who had been abandoned by their families and suffered endless cold stares.

No wonder the two of them had to leave their homes at such a young age and venture to Shrek Academy.

But Dai Yu had just said that his Martial Soul was the White Tiger.

And now he was saying it was the Detached Martial Soul, Little White Cat.

Those two statements contradicted each other.

Could it be a Twin Martial Soul?

Bei Bei suddenly thought of the Body Sect.

The Body Sect possessed a secret method for the Second Awakening of a Body Martial Soul.

Perhaps Dai Yu's Martial Soul had undergone a Second Awakening?

Otherwise, with such a terrifying Martial Soul, it was impossible for the White Tiger Duke's Mansion not to value him!

The wariness in Bei Bei's eyes faded considerably, replaced by a trace of gentle apology:

"Sorry for bringing up your painful past.

Since you've already left that place, the road ahead will be a brand-new beginning."

Tang Ya also wore an indignant expression. Waving the Grilled Fish bones in her hand, she said angrily:

"Exactly!

What's so great about them?

It's just a duke's mansion!

Little Yuhao, Little Brother Dai, don't be afraid!

Since you've met this sect master, if that Dai Huabin dares to cause trouble for you in the future, I'll... I'll have Bei Bei beat him up!"

Tang Ya seemed to feel that verbal protection alone was not enough. Her eyes rolled,

and like a gray wolf watching two Little White Cats, she suddenly leaned closer and said mysteriously:

"Since we get along so well, and you're both going to Shrek Academy, why don't you... join our Tang Sect?"

"The Tang Sect?"

Huo Yuhao froze for a moment, clearly unfamiliar with the name.

After all, he had always been marginalized in the Duke's Mansion and knew very little about the sects and forces outside.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's blank expression, Dai Yu had not even had time to speak

before Tang Ya could no longer contain her excitement and began enthusiastically recounting the Tang Sect's glorious history:

"That's right! The Tang Sect—the former Number One Sect of the Continent!"

Tang Ya planted her hands on her hips, her face brimming with immense pride. Her voice rose several pitches:

"Ten thousand years ago, the Tang Sect's ancestor, Sea God Tang San, founded the Tang Sect!

Back then, our Tang Sect shook the entire continent. With our exquisite Hidden Weapons and unique cultivation techniques,

we achieved outstanding feats in the war against the Spirit Hall!

Even Titled Douluo had to keep their distance when faced with our Tang Sect's top Hidden Weapons!

It could be said that without the Tang Sect, the current structure of the Douluo Continent would not exist!"

The more Tang Ya spoke, the more excited she became, as if she had already been transported to that glorious era when all nations came to pay homage.

Huo Yuhao listened in a daze, and a trace of longing involuntarily appeared in his eyes.

The Number One Sect of the Continent?

Even Titled Douluo were afraid of it?

It really sounded incredibly powerful!

However, just as Tang Ya was immersed in her self-intoxication and preparing to continue boasting about the Tang Sect's accomplishments,

Dai Yu, who had been quietly listening from the side, suddenly spoke, casually tossing out a sentence:

"It really was glorious once, and quite inspiring."

Dai Yu's tone was calm as he looked straight at Tang Ya and asked pointedly:

"But what about the Tang Sect now?"

"Huh?"

Tang Ya's impassioned voice came to an abrupt halt, like a duck whose neck had been seized.

The excitement on her face instantly froze, replaced by unmistakable awkwardness and embarrassment.

Tang Ya instinctively glanced at Bei Bei beside her. Her fingers twisted the hem of her clothes uneasily as she stammered:

"Now, well..."

"Now... um..."

Tang Ya's voice grew softer and softer until it was barely louder than a mosquito:

"At present... it's just Bei Bei and me."

"Just two people?!"

Huo Yuyao's eyes widened. The trace of awe toward the "Number One Sect of the Continent" that had just ignited in his heart

was instantly doused by a bucket of cold water.

He looked at the embarrassed Tang Ya, then at Bei Bei, who was smiling wryly in resignation.

His heart began to drum.

The entire sect only had two people?

Th-this could be called a sect?

Why did it feel more like playing house, or... some kind of makeshift outfit dedicated to tricking people?

Huo Yuhao instinctively shrank behind Dai Yu.

He said nothing, but his eyes clearly read, "Yu Ge, this doesn't seem very reliable."

Seeing Huo Yuyao's obvious retreat, Tang Ya immediately grew anxious.

It had taken so long to encounter two talented prospects with clean backgrounds.

How could she let them get away just like that?

"Hey! Don't look down on us just because we have so few people now. Our Tang Sect's foundations are still here!"

Tang Ya stamped her feet anxiously and hurriedly threw out another offer, trying to salvage the situation:

"As long as you join the Tang Sect, you can learn our Tang Sect's long-lost peerless cultivation techniques!"

Tang Ya held up her fingers and listed them one by one as if reciting treasured possessions:

"For example, the inner cultivation method—the Mysterious Heaven Skill—which allows one's power to flow endlessly and doubles the efficiency of Soul Power cultivation!

There's also the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, an unpredictable movement technique that lets you advance or retreat freely in battle!

And the Mysterious Jade Hand, which becomes as hard as stone once mastered, makes you immune to all poisons, and lets you catch blades with your bare hands!

There's also the Purple Demon Eye, Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon...

These are all top-tier Self-Created Soul Skills!

As long as you join, your senior will teach them all to you. I won't hold anything back!

How about it?"

Dai Yu sneered inwardly.

The Mysterious Heaven Skill?

If it were the original version, it would certainly be highly coveted!

After all, when Tang San crossed over, he originally had no Soul Power.

It was only through the Mysterious Heaven Skill that he gained the cultivation talent of Innate Full Soul Power.

But that raised the question.

Since the Tang Sect had the Mysterious Heaven Skill, why had it declined so badly?

Even if Hidden Weapons had been undermined by Soul Tools,

with the Mysterious Heaven Skill, the sect should not have fallen to its current state.

There was only one explanation.

The Mysterious Heaven Skill that Tang Ya treated as a treasure was simply a castrated version!

As time passed,

and ten thousand years of development went by,

other cultivation methods had all reached or even surpassed the castrated version of the Mysterious Heaven Skill!

Otherwise, why would no one have come to seize the Mysterious Heaven Skill?

Only the Tang Sect's own people treated it as a treasure.

As for the other Soul Skills, Dai Yu was not interested in them either.

For these petty benefits, become a dog for God King Tang?

Dream on!

Huo Yuhao was somewhat tempted. After all, to him now, anything that could make him stronger was filled with temptation.

He instinctively looked toward Dai Yu, a hint of inquiry in his eyes:

"Yu Ge, what do you think..."

However, before Huo Yuhao could finish, Dai Yu shook his head without hesitation and interrupted in a cool voice:

"Not interested."

"Huh?"

The smile on Tang Ya's face froze again. She clearly had not expected such a straightforward refusal.

Dai Yu calmly tore off a piece of fish and put it into his mouth, but inwardly he sneered with disdain.

What benefits were there to joining the Tang Sect?

Aside from that pile of obsolete trash techniques, all that remained was a mountain of unpaid debts and responsibilities.

The only reason he was going to Shrek Academy was that it was the convergence point of the original story.

There were a large number of protagonist-group members and important supporting characters there.

As long as he stayed near those people, he could rely on the system's "suppression reward" mechanism to continuously reap benefits, obtaining Attribute Points and all kinds of rewards.
