"Wait a moment, you three."

Seeing Huo Yuhao and his team preparing to leave, Wang Yan hurriedly called out to them.

The round-robin tournament had concluded, and from start to finish, Huo Yuhao had never once made a move; their opponents had essentially conceded the matches outright.

Unable to restrain his curiosity any longer, he decided to ask directly.

"What is it?" Wang Dong turned around and asked, looking somewhat puzzled.

"Congratulations on achieving a perfect record of ten wins in this freshman assessment."

"This result is among the very best even for freshmen; you are truly strong."

"However, I am very curious about Huo Yuhao from your group. What exactly is his martial soul?"

"Even though he hasn't done anything, my intuition tells me that Huo Yuhao is extremely important."

After finishing his sentence, Wang Yan looked toward Huo Yuhao.

Wang Dong was stunned for a moment; he hadn't expected Wang Yan to discern so much from such minor details.

Huo Yuhao, however, began to laugh. "Aren't our victories just because they conceded and went easy on us?"

"There's no real substance to them."

"Besides, I cannot tell you what my martial soul is."

"Of course, if you are capable of finding out, then that is your own ability."

Naturally, if Wang Yan could find out given his status, it would be a miracle!

Huo Yuhao's information had been completely sealed by Mu En; all that could be found was the name Huo Yuhao itself.

If Wang Yan somehow managed to dig up Huo Yuhao's files, the Sea God Pavilion would naturally intervene, so Huo Yuhao had no need to worry.

"Ah..." Wang Yan was taken aback by Huo Yuhao's words.

What did he mean by them going easy and conceding? They were terrified to fight you, that's what!

And he called that lacking substance!

The most significant matches in Area 33 were the ones involving your group, alright!

Furthermore, if you don't want to say it, fine, but what was that about it being his ability if he could find out?

Wang Yan simply didn't believe it; as a dignified senior teacher, could he really not find out the martial soul of a mere freshman?

"Since this student is unwilling to say, I will not force the issue," Wang Yan said gently.

"Then you can go; we are heading back." Huo Yuhao waved his hand and turned to walk toward the dormitories.

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao followed closely behind him.

"You said it yourself: if I can find out, it's my ability."

Watching the three figures walk away, Wang Yan decided he would thoroughly investigate Huo Yuhao's martial soul!

Huo Yuhao looked back at Wang Yan with some disappointment.

Useless, no options triggered!

He had originally thought some kind of choice would pop up, but it seemed Wang Yan's temper was just too good.

This tactic was completely ineffective.

"So frustrating!"

"After a whole day, I didn't even get to have any fun. They just kept conceding—why are they all such cowards?" Wang Dong grumbled in dissatisfaction.

By the time the ten round-robin matches were over, he hadn't even made a move a few times; the groups they faced either conceded as soon as they stepped onto the stage or surrendered before the match even began.

Xiao Xiao curled her lips. "Be content with what you have; I've made even fewer moves than you!"

"Alright, alright, both of you shut up. Come with me to grill some fish; didn't you always complain about not getting enough to eat?"

"How about you eat your fill this time?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the two of them with a sense of helplessness.

"You should have said so earlier; if you had, we wouldn't have been arguing."

"Exactly, if you had said so earlier, we wouldn't have been arguing."

The two of them wore expressions of having successfully executed a plan.

"Fine, fine, so you're actors, teaming up to play me!" Huo Yuhao felt a sudden urge to laugh and cry at the same time.

The three of them skillfully set up the grill outside Shrek Academy.

Before Huo Yuhao had even begun to prepare the Black Carp, a large crowd had already lined up.

"You all know the rules, right?"

"Those ranked after one hundred can leave on their own."

With that, Huo Yuhao began to grill the fish with practiced ease.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

Huo Yuhao looked at Xu Sanshi, who was standing at the front of the line, in disbelief.

To think he would come back to buy grilled fish and hand over more gold coins after being looted!

This truly caught Huo Yuhao by surprise.

"I stood in line, so don't even think about starting a fight!" Xu Sanshi said with a smug look on his face.

He was incredibly arrogant!

"Naturally." Huo Yuhao didn't engage much with Xu Sanshi and immediately began grilling twenty prepared Black Carp at once.

Why would he fight him?

He was only around level thirty; even if he fought, the probability of triggering an option was low!

Huo Yuhao guessed that Xu Sanshi wanted to experience the Spirit Eye Illusion again.

Don't ask him how he knew.

If you must ask, it's because the first time, Xu Sanshi hadn't even managed to snatch back his storage Soul Tool!

And the Mystic Water Pill!

Not a single one of those items had been taken back!

There was no need to guess; Xu Sanshi must have enjoyed it!

Otherwise, given his personality, how could he have let Huo Yuhao leave so easily?

If a fight broke out this time, Huo Yuhao definitely wouldn't use the Spirit Eye Illusion!

After grilling, Huo Yuhao divided the first four fish into two portions and handed them to Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao respectively.

"How many do you want?"

"Give me two." After paying, Xu Sanshi grabbed the grilled fish and ran back.

"Sigh, he's beyond saving." Huo Yuhao shook his head.

Seeing his actions, Huo Yuhao knew exactly what Xu Sanshi was going to do.

Just as Huo Yuhao finished selling his stock and prepared to pack up, the inner court disciple Ma Xiaotao, dressed in red, walked over.

She was holding the very same Xu Sanshi who had left not long ago.

"Sister Xiaotao, he's right here. Can you let me go now?"

Xu Sanshi said pitifully.

"Go on then." Ma Xiaotao waved her hand.

Xu Sanshi immediately bolted without looking back, as if afraid that if he were too slow, Ma Xiaotao might change her mind!

Why come looking for me now?

Huo Yuhao was puzzled; he didn't understand.

If he remembered correctly, he had already filled Ma Xiaotao's body with Ultimate Ice!

The evil fire shouldn't be able to erupt again!

Ma Xiaotao reached out a hand and said, "A greeting gift."

Huo Yuhao: "???"

No, there's nothing in your hand!

What kind of greeting gift is this?

Are you asking me for a greeting gift?!

"I give it to you?"

Ma Xiaotao nodded. "Mm."

Give you an egg!

You're actually asking for a greeting gift!

"Isn't the greeting gift supposed to be given by you to me?" Huo Yuhao couldn't help but ask.

Ma Xiaotao said seriously, "I'm overturning the natural order, is that not allowed?"

"Fine, fine, fine, overturning the natural order, is it!" Huo Yuhao was so angry he laughed!

He had been here for so long, and he had truly never seen such a move!

He had never even imagined such a move.

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, standing behind Huo Yuhao, both wanted to drive Ma Xiaotao away immediately!

But they were stopped by Huo Yuhao.

He wanted to see what kind of tricks Ma Xiaotao could pull!

"Here, this is a ten-thousand-year Fire Phoenix Left Arm Bone!"

Huo Yuhao took the useless 10,000-year Fire Phoenix Soul Bone out of his Storage Space.

Of course, the main reason was that he wanted to test if Ma Xiaotao could still trigger options!

After all, she was a Spirit Emperor over level 60!

Her level was higher than Huo Yuhao's!

She should have the potential to trigger options!

Ma Xiaotao: "?"

Wait, you're actually giving it to me?

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

She truly hadn't expected this!

She had originally intended to tease Huo Yuhao, only to end up getting a 10,000-year Fire Phoenix Left Arm Bone for free!
