Ma Xiaotao's phoenix flame blazed in jubilation as the Heaven and Earth Yuan Power of Extreme Fire poured in continuously, pushing her flame toward the Extreme Fire attribute.
Not only that, Ma Xiaotao was astonished to find her Soul Power had broken through to Level Sixty-Eight. At this moment, the look she gave Huo Yuhao was pure shock mixed with an inexplicable familiarity.
Since childhood, Huo Yuhao was the first member of the opposite sex to ever touch her body.
Huo Yuhao's entire body was ice-cold. As his Dantian released a portion of Extreme Fire outward, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Power of Extreme Ice within him matched it in equal measure.
Part of it nourished Huo Yuhao himself, while the other part was dedicated to absorption by the three big shots in his Sea of Spirit.
"Yuhao, your Soul Power has officially broken through to Level Thirty-Four. You can stop absorbing Heaven and Earth Yuan Power now," Ice Empress's voice sounded in the Sea of Spirit.
"What a shame. This woman is still a bit short of Extreme Fire. If the two of them cultivated together, the progress would be even greater than this," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said with a mischievous tone.
"Are you trying to get Yuhao killed that fast?"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's body trembled, feeling a chilling killing intent sweep over and spread through its entire body from behind. Snow Empress grabbed its two antennae and slapped it twice across the face.
"Even if that girl had Extreme Fire, the two of them would need their Martial Soul's ultimate attributes to be extremely close. Besides, how old is Yuhao? You filthy-minded big bug, stop saying such unhealthy things in front of Yuhao from now on. If you corrupt him, just wait and see how I deal with you!"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm scurried away in a flash, the red slap marks clearly visible on its chubby little face.
"Bingbing, you have to stand up for me!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, thick-skinned as a dead pig unafraid of scalding water, proactively sought out Ice Empress and began to complain.
"Scram!" Ice Empress lashed its tail, sending Sky Dream Ice Silkworm flying like a meteor to keep company with the cloud-like Electrolux above the sky.
In the dark lakebed, two large hands reached in.
Qian Renxue grabbed Huo Yuhao's collar, while Wu Ming seized Ma Xiaotao's slender waist. They pulled hard, but instead of separating the two, Wu Ming's body went limp, nearly toppling over.
"Is my younger brother really that charming?" Qian Renxue looked at Wu Ming in surprise. The gaze of this Golden Crow Leftover Woman had also become longing at that moment.
This woman before her was around twenty-seven or twenty-eight, known alongside Ma Xiaotao in the Inner Courtyard as the two active volcanoes, infamous for their explosive tempers.
Wu Ming shot Qian Renxue an apologetic look. "Xiao Xue, don't misunderstand. The aura emanating from your younger brother is greatly beneficial to my Golden Crow Martial Soul. Although my Martial Soul is fire-attributed, I'm still a considerable distance from Extreme Fire. I have a feeling that if I could absorb that part of the mysterious Heaven and Earth energy inside your brother, I could become a Soul Master of Extreme Fire!"
The corner of Qian Renxue's mouth twitched, and she was caught between laughter and tears. "Didn't they say ultimate attribute Soul Masters are rare as a once-in-a-millennium phenomenon? How did three suddenly pop up?"
"Don't just stand there dumbfounded. Separate them. What kind of spectacle is this in broad daylight?" Zhang Lexuan's voice rang out, accompanied by a heavy cough.
Qian Renxue, Han Ruoruo, and Wu Ming all rolled their eyes. Senior Sister was going too far—just a moment ago, she had been watching with rapt attention.
Zhang Lexuan's interference finally separated Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao. The moment they parted, they burst out of the lake surface and saw the four women around them wearing mischievous smiles. Both blushed simultaneously, then immediately fell unconscious.
"Xiao Xue, take Yuhao back to the New Student Dormitory. I'll explain your afternoon leave to Du Weilun."
Zhang Lexuan and Wu Ming supported the now-recovered Ma Xiaotao, lightly tapped the lake surface, and sped off toward Sea God Island.
Qian Renxue looked at Huo Yuhao in her arms and, for some reason, puffed out her pretty face in anger. "I never expected you, you little brat, to be so popular with girls. Aiya, at such a young age and already like this, what will become of you when you grow up?"
When Huo Yuhao woke up, he was surprised to find himself back in the dormitory.
After sweeping Dai Huabin out yesterday, the dormitory was now occupied only by Huo Yuhao. Looking out the window at the pitch-black sky, his stomach growled uncooperatively.
Huo Yuhao quickly got up, threw on some simple clothes and shoes, and rushed out to find food.
At the East City Gate of Shrek City, many vendors had already set up their stalls early. The air was filled with the aroma of various snacks. Huo Yuhao instinctively swallowed his saliva and, looking at the dazzling array of ingredients, ordered one of everything.
Huo Yuhao strolled and ate, his mouth dripping. The East City Gate was a bustling market that came alive at night.
People came and went on both sides of the street, including many men and women wearing Shrek Academy school uniforms. Stalls were crowded with customers.
It was at this moment that the crowd began to part to both sides. A stunning maiden in a purple school uniform walked gracefully forward. She looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a tall, slender figure and a delicate waist. Her long golden hair cascaded in waves behind her. The moment this breathtakingly beautiful girl appeared, it was as if the market had been put on pause. Everyone stared dumbfounded.
"What are you looking at? Turn your heads away!"
A deep voice rang out as a thick Soul Power spread outward. A black-clad youth suddenly appeared before the stunning maiden, furious at seeing the woman he loved being gawked at.
"Xu Sanshi! I'll tell you one last time—stay away from me. You've already seriously disrupted my normal life."
The youth called Xu Sanshi immediately put on a gentle smile as he looked at the stunning maiden, as if the person who had just shouted rudely at the crowd wasn't him.
"Nannan, don't you know my heart by now?"
"Xu Sanshi, there will never be anything between us!"
Huo Yuhao stood on the side of the road, holding a grilled fish in his left hand and drinking watermelon juice with his right, watching this little couple's drama unfold. It was way better than the romance movies from his previous life.
Xu Sanshi wasn't angered. He looked at Jiang Nannan with a full-faced smile, then resumed his role as her bodyguard.
"Hey, you—turn your head!"
Huo Yuhao pointed at himself, swallowed the grilled fish in one bite, downed the last drop of watermelon juice, wiped his mouth clean, and said, "Me?"
"That's right, you! Looks like you're a new student this year. Haven't you heard of the great name of Eternal Lord Xu Sanshi?"
"You're Eternal Lord Xu Sanshi?"
"Since you know my great name, turn your head around!"
"This road belongs to the academy, not your private property. How about a match in the Soul Dueling Arena?" Huo Yuhao looked at Xu Sanshi with a serious expression.
As soon as he said this, not only was Xu Sanshi stunned, but even Jiang Nannan looked at Huo Yuhao in surprise. Everyone's expressions were complicated. Huo Yuhao was wearing a new student uniform, clearly a freshman this year.
How dare this clueless kid challenge Eternal Lord Xu Sanshi?
After all, Xu Sanshi was one of the Outer Courtyard Twin Stars of Shrek Academy.
