Dai Huabin suffered a blow
Dai Yuhao felt a chill run down his spine.
A familiar feeling welled up inside me.
This feels like prey being targeted...
And I am the prey!
Who is it?
He glanced around, a nameless fear rising within him.
Just like the child who had beaten me half to death in that dream called "Heaven and Earth Questioning Love," staring at me with the same eyes.
"What's wrong, Yuhao?"
Yu Xiaogang, who was walking ahead, noticed that something was wrong with his beloved disciple and turned to ask.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little worried about Mom."
Dai Yuhao couldn't say anything, so he could only offer a forced explanation.
"That servant..." Dai Huabin blurted out, but was interrupted by Dai Yuhao before he could finish.
"Dai Huabin!"
Dai Yuhao gritted his teeth, his reaction was extremely intense, and he even quietly activated the safety on the Silent Sleeve Arrow concealed on his wrist.
Dai Huabin was about to say the word "servant," but fearing the already furrowed Yu Xiaogang, he immediately changed his words:
"Your mother can't possibly be in any danger, especially at the White Tiger Duke Mansion. Who would dare to harm her?"
Yu Xiaogang nodded slowly, "Yuhao, your Grandmaster is right. The White Tiger Duke holds considerable military power, and even Shrek can't afford to offend him now."
Don't worry, even if the Sea God in the Divine Realm gets into trouble, your mother Huo Yun'er, will be fine."
"I hope so," Dai Yuhao said thoughtfully.
The matter is settled.
The group continued forward.
Yu Xiaogang did not plan to return to the White Tiger Duke Mansion now, after all, cultivation requires a balance of intensity and rest.
The eldest disciple, Dai Huabin, has just obtained his First Soul Ring, and Zhu Lu's Soul Power is now almost at level 10. It would be better for them to rest in Shrek City for a while, and then return after Zhu Lu also obtains her Soul Ring.
As for his second disciple, Huo Yuhao?
It's still a long way off, but it's good to broaden our horizons early, consider it as getting familiar with the Shrek Academy in advance.
How could his disciples not Shrek Academy? After all, with its millennia-old foundation, there's no need to worry about resources for repairs.
"Teacher, that stone statue looks just like you!"
Now that they had fully entered the city, Dai Huabin pointed to the three towering stone statues ahead.
Dai Huabin, who was familiar with Shrek, naturally knew that the three stone statues were Flender, Liu Erlong, and the famous master who had trained eight gods— Yu Xiaogang!
Etc...
The teacher's name is also Yu Xiaogang, and his nickname is Grandmaster?
"Could it be?" Dai Huabin seemed to understand something.
Yu Xiaogang could no longer suppress the upward curve of his lips; he was secretly gloating.
Is this what it means to show off in front of others? So this is what Feng Yan felt during the Soul Master Tournament?
However, unlike Feng Yan now, Gangzi clearly has no intention of hiding his identity.
"Cough cough!"
Yu Xiaogang coughed a few times, preparing to reveal his identity, "Huabin, you guessed right, I am the legendary one who is paired with eight gods..."
"Dai Yueheng!"
The next moment, Dai Huabin clenched his fists, bent his knees slightly, and then disappeared instantly.
First Soul Skill! White Tiger Leaps over Mountains!
Where are they?
Yu Xiaogang was stunned.
"Teacher... Huabin seems to have activated his first Soul Skill just now," Zhu Lu, who had been watching Dai Huabin closely, weakly reminded him.
"What!"
Yu Xiaogang was furious and felt offended. Damn Dai Huabin, Grandmaster hadn't even finished showing off, and you've already run off like this?
This is absolutely outrageous!
"Yuhao, Zhu Lu, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and go after Huabin!"
Yu Xiaogang knew perfectly well how extraordinary his eldest disciple's first Soul Skill was, and how highly malleable it was, even more powerful than a thousand-year-old Soul Skill.
Meanwhile, on the other side...
Dai Huabin unleashed several first-level Soul Skill in mid-air, finally catching up with the blond-haired boy in front of him.
I caught up with you, big brother!
His Soul Ring lit up, and without any object to lean on, he actually stepped on his right foot with his left and leaped dozens of meters upwards again!
The White Tiger Crosses Mountains!
"Dai Yueheng, take this! My Self-Created Soul Skill, White Tiger Flying Kick!"
Dai Huabin gathered all his Soul Power into his right leg, and like a golden meteor, kicked towards the blond boy below.
Dai Yueheng was running when he heard the call and immediately turned around to see Dai Huabin in the air.
"Dai Huabin, what is he doing here? Shouldn't he be in the dungeon of Star Luo City right now?"
As the golden light drew closer, Dai Yueheng immediately realized what was happening.
What's wrong with this bastard now, daring to attack his elder brother!
"First Soul Skill: White Tiger Protective Barrier"
A pale golden shield, formed from Soul Power, slowly appeared around Dai Yueheng. The shield appeared thin but was actually extremely protective.
Seeing this, Dai Huabin sneered inwardly.
This move was something he mastered on his own after being reminded by Yu Xiaogang. He gathered all the Soul Power in his body into his legs and used the force of gravity to enhance his power.
Even a giant tree as thick as a washbasin in the Star Dou Great Forest would break under this blow.
According to Yu Xiaogang's deduction, even Soul Grandmaster would be seriously injured if they took this hit.
Today, he is determined to teach Dai Yueheng a lesson: the only heir to the title of White Tiger Duke in the future can be Dai Huabin!
"Bang!"
The White Tiger Protective Barrier cracked open with a sound, making it impossible for Dai Huabin to move forward. He felt as if he had kicked a steel plate, and a sharp pain shot through his right leg.
"Oh no!"
Dai Yueheng, disregarding martial ethics, actually broke through to the Soul Elder!
When exactly did this happen, and why wasn't it reported back to the White Tiger Duke Mansion?
Dai Huabin could feel that his right leg seemed to be fractured. Overwhelmed by the pain, he collapsed to the ground, gritting his teeth as he said:
"Damn it! Dai Yueheng, I've lost today, but I'll get my revenge sooner or later."
Dai Yueheng snorted coldly. Although he had many questions in his mind, he didn't ask any further. He simply said coldly, "Class is still in session. I'll come back to ask you later."
If it weren't for the fact that, strictly speaking, he wasn't yet a student in Class Zero and wasn't prohibited from skipping classes, especially since it was only the first day of class, he would have already gotten to the bottom of things.
After Dai Yueheng left.
Yu Xiaogang and his group arrived here soon after.
"Huabin, what's wrong?"
Zhu Lu looked at Dai Huabin lying on the ground with concern and hurriedly went forward to help him up.
"Get out of here!"
Dai Huabin was still in a bad mood because he had lost to his good older brother. His full-force attack couldn't even break through his defenses, and he was even injured as a result.
What he needs now is guidance from Yu Xiaogang to become stronger and defeat Dai Yueheng, not this inexplicable concern.
Did I... do something wrong again?
Zhu Lu's eyes welled up with tears, and she instinctively stopped, asking cautiously.
"What's going on, Huabin?"
Yu Xiaogang was already used to Dai Huabin's scolding of Zhu Lu, and he was too lazy to say anything more, since it went in one ear and out the other anyway.
"I..."
Dai Huabin lowered his head and finally spoke with difficulty, "I lost to Dai Yueheng; he broke through to the Soul Elder."
"So what."
Yu Xiaogang said calmly.
"Losing once is nothing. You're only level 12 after absorbing your Soul Ring. Even the Sea God and the God of War back then couldn't defeat Soul Elder Master head-on."
Failure is not terrible; what is terrible is not having the courage to get back up.
Yu Xiaogang actually cared a lot about this eldest disciple, just like he had cared about Tang San back then. Dai Huabin had completely regarded himself as a teacher.
Although he is still somewhat unruly, it's not a big problem in the end; as long as he's not a hypocrite like Tang San, it's fine.
As for Huo Yuhao?
Yu Xiaogang could tell that he was still very wary of him. Now, he didn't even dare to tell him his real name.
If it weren't for the Duchess, he would still think his surname was Huo, not Dai.
