The more Huo Yuhao said, the more humiliated Tang San felt.
Tang San had only one thought now.
That was to make Huo Yuhao pay dearly a million years from now.
"Yuhao, I think we've angered a God King."
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm watched Tang San leave the arena without saying a word. Its excitement was instantly replaced by fear.
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had lived for so many years; it knew how to read people.
Tang San was obviously angry.
And from the looks of it, he held a grudge against them now.
"Brother Sky Dream, you're overthinking it."
"God King Tang isn't that kind of person."
"According to the history books, God King Tang was pure and unsullied. How could he get angry over such a trivial matter?"
"I beat him, so God King Tang will only feel gratified."
"Because it means the times are advancing, and the Tang Sect has worthy successors."
Huo Yuhao didn't agree with the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
Perhaps Tang San had simply been too badly injured, which was why he'd hurried off.
"Yuhao, you're still too young."
"Do you think you can believe the stuff written in history books?"
"Have you learned to write the real history into the history books?"
"History is written by the victors."
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was drenched in sweat.
The thought of being resented by a God King—
It felt as though the sky had collapsed.
If God King Tang wanted to take revenge on them, he had ten thousand ways to do it.
"Brother Sky Dream, stop scaring yourself."
"I believe God King Tang definitely isn't that petty."
Huo Yuhao reassured the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
At the same time, Shrek Academy was in an uproar.
Mu En repeated "excellent" more than a dozen times before finally calming down.
What did Huo Yuhao's victory over Tang San mean?
It meant Huo Yuhao's talent was even greater than Tang San's.
It meant Huo Yuhao might achieve even greater things than Tang San in the future.
Mu En had already thought highly of Huo Yuhao.
Now Huo Yuhao had made a name for himself in a single battle.
It had thoroughly proven that Mu En's judgment had been right, and he hadn't misjudged the boy.
"Take him as my disciple!"
"I have to take him as my disciple!"
Mu En made up his mind.
As soon as Huo Yuhao returned, he would immediately announce that he was taking him as his disciple.
From now on, Huo Yuhao would be a key focus of the entire Shrek Academy's cultivation efforts.
Outer Court...
Tang Ya wore a complicated expression.
She didn't know whether she should laugh or cry.
Huo Yuhao had won, and Tang Ya was naturally happy for him.
But the opponent Huo Yuhao had beaten was Tang San.
That left Tang Ya feeling deeply conflicted.
After all...
Tang San was an idol to Tang Ya.
Her admiration for him surged like the mighty Yangtze River.
Now her idol had been defeated.
There was no way Tang Ya could feel happy.
The invincible idol in her heart had shattered in that moment.
But looking at it another way, this wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Huo Yuhao could defeat Tang San.
That meant it was only a matter of time before the Tang Sect was revived.
Once Huo Yuhao grew stronger, who would dare bully the Tang Sect?
Wang Dong wore a satisfied smile.
"He hasn't disgraced our dormitory."
"If Huo Yuhao had dared to lose,"
"I'd have locked him out of the dorm."
Wang Dong hummed a little tune, delighted.
Inner Court, Ma Xiaotao looked at Huo Yuhao as if her gaze could melt into silken threads.
"As expected of my dear little brother."
"When he gets back, I have to reward him with a snuggle."
Seeing Huo Yuhao unleash Ultimate Ice and sweep all before him made Ma Xiaotao tremble from head to toe.
If he released all that on her to suppress her Evil Fire—
The feeling would definitely be wonderful.
At the thought of it, Ma Xiaotao couldn't wait to see Huo Yuhao.
Her Evil Fire had been getting harder and harder to suppress lately.
Only Huo Yuhao could satisfy her.
The Body Sect.
Du Busi burst into laughter.
"This boy belongs in my Body Sect."
Huo Yuhao possessed the Spirit Eye Martial Soul.
Du Busi had long considered him one of their own.
All Soul Masters with Body Martial Souls in the world ought to join the Body Sect.
Only Du Busi—
Only he could teach Huo Yuhao how to achieve the Second Awakening of his Spirit Eye Martial Soul.
The Body Sect's research into Body Martial Souls was something no other sect could hope to match.
If Huo Yuhao stayed at Shrek Academy, it would only hold back his outstanding talent.
There wasn't a single person at Shrek who knew how to cultivate a Body Martial Soul.
Du Busi absolutely couldn't stand by and watch Huo Yuhao's potential go to waste.
He was going to Shrek to snatch him away.
At that thought, Du Busi vanished from the spot.
Mingdou Mountain Range...
Dai Hao stood there, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
"How could that boy have the White Tiger Dagger?"
The White Tiger Dagger was the token of love he had left for Huo Yun'er.
By rights, it should have remained in Huo Yun'er's hands.
But now, the White Tiger Dagger was in Huo Yuhao's hands.
Then, thinking of the boy's name—
A dreadful suspicion rose in Dai Hao's heart.
"Could Huo Yuhao be Yun'er's and my child?"
The moment the thought appeared,
Dai Hao was unable to calm himself for a long time.
He carefully recalled what Huo Yuhao looked like.
There really was a strong resemblance between their brows and eyes.
But the problem was...
Why wasn't Huo Yuhao surnamed Dai?
If he were Dai Hao's child, his name should be Dai Yuhao.
And why had Dai Hao never known that Huo Yun'er had borne him a son?
Dai Hao often guarded the Mingdou Mountain Range and had no time to return home.
But whenever he had a spare moment, he wrote to the White Tiger Duke Mansion.
He was kept informed about everything that happened in the mansion.
Lady White Tiger always reported it to him.
But Dai Hao had never once seen her mention that Huo Yun'er had borne him a son.
"Damn it!"
"Did something happen in the mansion?"
The more Dai Hao thought about it, the tighter his brow furrowed.
His instincts told him—
Something bad had definitely happened at the White Tiger Duke Mansion.
"Someone, prepare the carriage."
"I'm returning to the White Tiger Duke Mansion immediately."
At Dai Hao's command, he could no longer hold back.
In the past, Dai Hao could never have left the Mingdou Mountain Range so easily.
After all, his duty was to guard the border.
But now, Ye Xishui was dead.
Dai Hao no longer had to worry about so much.
If Huo Yuhao really was his son,
Dai Hao had to make sure he received the best cultivation.
It was easy to tell from Huo Yuhao's performance—
The boy's talent surpassed his own.
With proper cultivation, Huo Yuhao's future achievements would be no less than those of a Limit Douluo.
Dai Hao was preparing to hurry back to the White Tiger Duke Mansion.
Meanwhile, Lady White Tiger had watched Huo Yuhao become a completely different person, and she was already scared shitless.
Back when Huo Yuhao was still at the White Tiger Duke Mansion, he had been a complete good-for-nothing.
His Soul Power was only at level three, and he hadn't even inherited Dai Hao's White Tiger Martial Soul.
Lady White Tiger had immediately concluded that Huo Yuhao would never amount to anything.
But she hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to leave the White Tiger Duke Mansion and, within just a few years, transform from a sparrow into a phoenix.
Not only was he powerful,
He had even defeated God King Tang.
This battle was enough to make the entire continent remember Huo Yuhao's name.
After all, not just anyone had what it took to defeat God King Tang.
Once Dai Hao returned and discovered the filthy things she had concealed,
She would likely lose her position for good.
