Xuan Zi: You Still Want to Make a Move?

"Oh? That's interesting."

Lang Ya looked at Chen Yuan and Huo Yuhao with great interest.

A Soul Master who was clearly of the fire attribute and a Soul Master with the second ring of the Mental Attribute were both unaffected by his spirit.

"Withdraw your Spiritual Power; I doubt you'd want to cause too much of a commotion."

"Otherwise, it should have been the person next to you who made the move, not you."

Compared to Yu Tao, Lang Ya's Mental Attribute are more concealed; if he controls his actions well, he won't cause too much trouble.

The Star Emperor Hotel is where the participating teams stay during the competition. The Star Luo Empire has a large number of troops guarding the hotel, as well as some powerful Soul Master.

Even if the people of the Body Sect are strong, they are not brainless idiots. They would not cause too much of a commotion in this place at this time.

Otherwise, it would be a public slap in the face to the Star Luo Empire.

Although the Body Sect isn't afraid of the Star Luo Empire, they've provoked an empire for no reason, and the two of them will definitely get a scolding when they go back.

Then, Du Busi personally led them to the Star Luo Empire to settle scores, which could easily escalate into a major war.

If it were just Huo Yuhao, Lang Ya was confident he wouldn't let him cause too much of a commotion, and could even take him away without anyone noticing.

But there's also Chen Yuan here. If he were to clash with this guy who's immune to his Spiritual Power, the commotion would be huge and would definitely attract the attention of the Star Luo Empire's officials.

Thinking it best to avoid trouble, Lang Ya stopped the eager Yu Tao, nodded slightly to Chen Yuan, and withdrew his Spiritual Power.

The group, who had been in a daze, returned to normal and looked at the two members of the Body Sect in front of them with renewed vigilance.

"Let's go, Bei Bei. After all, this is a matter for your Tang Sect. Tang Ya isn't here, so in the end, it still requires your approval as the Grandmaster of the Tang Sect."

Bei Bei nodded and, together with Chen Yuan and Huo Yuhao, arrived at the rest area of Star Emperor Hotel for the participating students.

Upon hearing the name Tang Sect, a hint of disdain flashed in Lang Ya and Yu Tao's eyes. Almost everyone on the Douluo Continent had heard of the Tang Sect.

But so many years have passed, Tang Sect has long since become dust of history. Their Body Sect is now the number one sect in the world.

Apart from the three Main Team, the rest followed Wang Yan upstairs. The three Main Team were at least somewhat useful here, but the others were just a burden.

When Ma Xiaotao heard that the Body Sect had come to take Huo Yuhao away, she felt inexplicably annoyed.

If Huo Yuhao leaves, what will happen to her Evil Fire? Will she go back to how she was before? Ma Xiaotao said she couldn't do that.

"You're the Grandmaster of the Tang Sect? A mere Soul Ancestor Sect? It seems the once number one sect on the continent has fallen to the level of a second-rate minor sect."

"What? You think you can compete with our Body Sect for our people?"

Yu Tao spoke first; he usually wouldn't even give such a low-level force a second glance.

Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao were very angry, because they truly considered the Tang Sect their home.

"Gentlemen, stop with the trash talk and get straight to the point. This is still during the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament, and the finals are about to begin. Your Body Sect is here to take away our team members at this time."

"Can we assume that your Body Sect has betrayed the Three Douluo Kingdoms and secretly joined the Sun Moon Empire? Are you trying to weaken our strength so that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy can win this competition?"

Regardless of your situation, they'll just label you first so they can gain the upper hand.

Upon hearing this, Lang Ya's expression turned solemn. He certainly couldn't accept this label, and neither could the Body Sect behind him.

When I first came here, I was only thinking of taking advantage of the fact that Shrek Academy didn't have many strong people during the competition, so I could quickly take away the genius with Twin Martial Souls.

He hadn't really thought of that, let alone the simple-minded Yu Tao standing beside him.

Yu Tao was very agitated when he heard Chen Yuan making unfounded accusations. He was about to say something when Lang Ya stopped him.

"Young brother, you jest. My Body Sect is a traditional sect. Apart from Storage Soul Tool, we don't possess any Soul Tool at all. Our disciples are even more averse to Soul Tool. How could we possibly join the Sun Moon Empire?"

"Since you've said that, we naturally trust your sect."

"However, as far as I know, Huo Yuhao is already a disciple of the Tang Sect. Your Body Sect wouldn't want to do something as despicable as forcibly taking a disciple, would it? You should have a proper talk with Huo Yuhao himself and this Grandmaster of the Tang Sect."

"Bullshit! As long as someone has Awakening their Body Martial Soul, they are naturally a member of our Body Sect! All Body Martial Soul are one family. Even if we consider who came first, from the moment they Awakening their Body Martial Soul, they have been a member of our Body Sect!"

"Moreover, my Body Sect is the number one sect in the world today, far superior to that damned Tang Sect!"

"I'm not a disciple of the Body Sect!"

"My martial spirit was passed down to me by my mother! It was the Tang Sect that took me in when I was at my lowest point! Where was your Body Sect back then?!"

Huo Yuhao strongly disliked the Body Sect mentioning family.

If their Body Martial Soul truly belong to the same family, why couldn't these two inexplicably appear sooner?

If I had arrived sooner, Mom wouldn't have gotten into this mess!

Isn't it because they've taken a liking to my current talent? I've never received a single penny from the Body Sect, but the Tang Sect has given me everything and the warmth of a home. I will never leave the Tang Sect!

Chen Yuan was not surprised at all by Huo Yuhao's outburst.

According to several descriptions in the original work, the Body Sect was indeed very good to its own disciples, and it can be said that they took protecting their own to the extreme.

But now, this person suddenly appears in front of Huo Yuhao and forces him to join the sect, which is somewhat unreasonable.

The Tang Sect may not be a good place, and there may be a lot of scheming behind Huo Yuhao joining Tang Sect, but it is also a fact that Tang Ya and Bei Bei helped Huo Yuhao when he was at Huo Yuhao lowest point.

At least for now, in Huo Yuhao's heart, the Tang Sect holds a far greater place than the Body Sect.

But can you please not let all these pent-up emotions just explode at once?!

Chen Yuan and Bei Bei both noticed that something was wrong with Huo Yuhao Huo Yuhao, and quickly grabbed his arm to make him come to his senses.

Without Electrolux, Huo Yuhao's problems in the early stages became increasingly serious. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and Ice Empress are both Soul Beast and wouldn't care about these issues at all. Just now, Chen Yuan even thought Huo Yuhao was about to fall into evil because of his appearance.

If the current Child of Destiny Douluo Continent were to fall into evil, wouldn't that give Evil Soul Master an opportunity to strengthen themselves?

Huo Yuhao snapped out of his anger in time and, unwilling to stay any longer, was about to leave when the hot-tempered Yu Tao reached out his right arm to grab Huo Yuhao.

"Want to leave? Did I say you could leave?"

Yu Tao's right arm extended like a rubber band, reaching over two meters long, and he grabbed at Huo Yuhao.

Just as Yu Tao's arm was about to grab Huo Yuhao, a dirty figure appeared between them, Xuan Zi casually stretched out a finger and slapped Yu Tao's arm.

"Smack!"

Yu Tao's strong arm developed a dent, and he then crashed through the hotel window and flew out.

"Hmph! I only said a few words to these kids when I was angry! You two worthless cowards think you can lay a hand on me in front of me?!"

"I'm telling you this! If Huo Yuhao doesn't want to, even if that old poisoner comes, it won't make a difference!"

"You want to lay a hand on my Shrek students? You'll have to get past me first! Get out of here!"

The atmosphere around Xuan Zi was terrifyingly tense. If these two hadn't been about to attack, he would have simply protected the children from the shadows.

Wang Yan had embarrassed him last time, and he would settle the score with Wang Yan when he got back. But with these kids, he could only say some harsh words.

After all, these children are the future of Shrek, his hope for whether he can step down Sea God Pavilion Master in a peaceful manner decades from now. He can't really take action against them, can he?

He can just say a few words and let them go hungry for a couple of meals. But if he really takes action, how can Xuan Zi retire in peace?

Faced with the oppressive Soul Power released by Xuan Zi, Lang Ya dared not say a word and immediately slunk away.

After Lang Ya left, the area became quiet. Everyone just stared at Xuan Zi, Xuan Zi felt a little embarrassed by their gazes.

"Don't worry, what I said before was just said in anger, but threatening you was indeed wrong of me. Even if I was angry, I shouldn't have taken it out on you kids."

"Alright, that's enough for now. Go back and focus on your training. Do your best in the finals. Good luck!"

Xuan Zi made up his mind. He was going to give Wang Yan a good kick in a bit. It was all Wang Yan's fault for making him angry and causing him to lose his composure in front of so many children.
