A Soul Elder Defeating a Titled Douluo... You Could Brag About That for Life

"Wait, we are Shrek students. We only attacked because of the assessment; we meant no harm."

Seeing Yu Longheng fall into a rather strange silence, Ning Yue panicked and mustered her courage to look up and say, "Classmates, and that uncle over there, I will compensate you for your losses later!"

What exactly happened?

Why did Long Heng freeze and become unable to move after the blue-eyed boy only glanced at them?

That's absolutely unbelievable!

"Shrek?" Xie Xie paused, his expression strange. "You're Shrek Academy students?"

"My Martial Soul is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda!" Ning Yue held up the seven-tiered pagoda in her hand. "I'm a member of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. You've all heard the legend of my ancestor Ning Rongrong, right? That should serve as evidence."

Xie Xie glanced at Gu Yuena, then looked at Ning Yue, his gaze growing increasingly strange. "You're both around fourteen years old, right? Only Soul Elder as Shrek students?"

Leaving aside Boss Huo's freakish nature, Sister Na, at that age, is either Soul King or Soul Ancestor...

A fourteen-year-old Soul Elder?

Even before entering the Spirit Pagoda, he could have done it!

Coupled with the Shrek Academy's inexplicable assessment, Xie Xie a sense of shattered illusions.

Wei Xiaofeng wants to join Shrek... I hope he's alright.

Ning Yue's lips twitched; she felt that the young man was mocking their cultivation level.

What's wrong with Soul Elder at this age?

Is it that bad?

Moreover, if Long Heng wanted to, he could have advanced to the Soul Ancestor long ago; he was just absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Soul Spirit in his fourth Soul Ring and was simply accumulating experience.

But she wasn't in the mood to talk about those things; she simply asked, "You believe who we are now, right? Can you let us go?"

Xie Xie shrugged. "Too late. I've already informed the head of the Law Enforcement Team. And shouldn't the compensation be given by now? You beat this old man and me so badly, do you really think you can just walk away?"

Actually, seeing how terrified the two of them were by Huo Yuhao's single glance, his anger had mostly subsided. The real problem was this innocent uncle who got electrocuted...

This guy is really clueless; he initially thought the other person was one of those two bad guys conspiring to scam others.

"This..."

Ning Yue looked at the middle-aged man lying in the corner, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Upon seeing this, Xie Xie's expression changed, and he said coldly, "You don't really want to leave, do you? According to Federation Law, if a Soul Master injures someone in self-defense, causing minor injuries, they will be fined and detained; if seriously injured or even killed, they will be imprisoned! Do you want to be locked up?"

In Cultural Class, Luo Yanglu taught them mostly to follow Federation Law; he was so dizzy from memorizing all the clauses targeting Soul Masters.

I never thought I'd need it now.

If you assault someone and don't pay compensation or take responsibility, then just follow Federation Law. Who cares about your performance evaluations!

Ning Yue: "..."

Fine? Detention? Imprisonment?

Their belongings were all confiscated, and the money they earned on the road was barely enough to get by—not much at all! Besides, they couldn't be locked up here, otherwise their assessment time would be wasted!

Ning Yue was somewhat anxious.

She was just a support-type Soul Master, no match for Battle Spirit Master. She was counting on Yu Longheng, but now that he seemed to have lost his fighting ability, she was completely helpless.

It seemed that they could only hope that the teacher would help them, but even when the Law Enforcement Team arrived, Shen Yi still didn't do anything, and Ning Yue completely gave up hope.

"That's true. If the teacher intervenes, we'll fail the assessment. What's the point then?" Ning Yue sighed, secretly annoyed.

If it weren't for that blue-eyed boy and black-haired girl, they would have already left, and there would be no need to pray for the teacher's help.

But contrary to Ning Yue's expectations, it wasn't that Shen Yi was unwilling to help, but rather that she had been locked onto by a powerful Divine Power the moment Huo Yuhao and the other arrived.

She frowned and observed, eventually arriving at an answer that she found unbelievable.

This Divine Power at the Spirit Abyss Realm level emanated from Huo Yuhao!

The Spirit Abyss Realm —that's a realm usually only reached by Titled Douluo. Even the most peerless geniuses need to reach the Soul Saint Realm. How could this young man possibly be at that level now...?

The usually calm and collected Shen Yi stared intently at Huo Yuhao, his heart trembling.

A ten-year-old Spirit Abyss Realm —has there ever been such a figure in the entire history of the Federation?

While Shen Yi was distracted, the Law Enforcement Team members arrived quickly, and she couldn't intervene. She could only watch as Yu Longheng and Ning Yue were taken away by the Law Enforcement Team.

Among them, Yu Longheng's steps were heavy, as if he was still immersed in the shock from before.

Just as he was about to pass by Huo Yuhao, Yu Longheng suddenly looked up, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

He turned his head, his gaze piercing Huo Yuhao like a blade. "Eighth on the Young Genius List, Huo Yuhao, I'll remember you! This humiliation will be avenged one day."

Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow.

Why does he give off a feeling of being the main villain?

Oh, no, the Spirit Pagoda played the villain role in the Dragon King version.

"The Young Genius List? What's that?" Xie Xie glanced at Yu Longheng who had left, ignoring Yu Longheng's words, and looked at Huo Yuhao with curiosity.

They're no match for Boss Yuhao now, and they'll never be in the future.

Huo Yuhao explained, "It's a ranking list set up by the Spirit Pagoda, open to the entire Federation. It includes Soul Masters under the age of eighteen, and ranks them based on Soul Power Level, potential, and Side Profession."

The strength of Soul Masters in the Eastsea region is only second-tier in the entire Federation. People don't pay much attention to the Wind and Cloud List and its sub-lists, since they have nothing to do with Eastsea City and no locals are on the list. Therefore, Xie Xie really doesn't know anything about it.

Xie Xie's eyes lit up. "That guy just said you're number eight, which means your talent is in the top ten in the entire Federation? No wonder you're amazing!"

At this point, Xie Xie suddenly looked at Gu Yuena, as if remembering something.

"Sister Na wouldn't happen to be one of them, would she?"

"Thirteen."

Gu Yuena nodded lightly, without saying much. Her gaze shifted to the middle-aged man who had already regained consciousness but had not left. She exchanged a glance with Huo Yuhao and secretly communicated with him.

"Yuhao, he is the assistant that Di Tian arranged for Xiong Jun, the Deputy Pagoda Master of the Heaven Dou Branch, Titled Douluo."

"Hmm, I think I know who he is. He must be the teacher Xie Xie mentioned today, who's been teaching him. He's quite a... fascinating person."

A Titled Douluo was defeated by Yu Longheng, a Soul Elder Soul Elder Titled Douluo is something the latter can brag about for a lifetime.

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment, then withdrew his Divine Power from restraining Shen Yi, looked at the middle-aged man in the corner, and transmitted his voice to Gu Yuena, "Let's go, he must have come to see Xie Xie."

After saying that, Huo Yuhao Xie Xie and said:

"Since we're trying to save him, why don't you take this old man to see Healing Spirit Master?"

"Sure." Xie Xie readily agreed, walked to the side, grabbed the "confused" uncle, and led him away. "Uncle, I'll take you to get your health checked out."

Liang Xiaoyu looked at him, somewhat speechless.

This disciple isn't very bright; he clearly recognized his voice, yet he still hasn't realized it...

Today, he wanted to meet Xie Xie, his apprentice disciple, and test him as well. Unexpectedly, he ran into Shrek students blocking the Spirit Pagoda. He couldn't just pretend he didn't see them and let them fight near the Spirit Pagoda.

So he planned to pretend to be Soul Ancestor to teach these brats a lesson, and then invite them to the Spirit Pagoda for "tea" to prevent them from harming others.

But since Xie Xie, he didn't rush to make a move. He wanted to observe the character and abilities of this prospective disciple, and the rest is history.

"This kid's response was terrible. If his teammates hadn't been strong enough, he wouldn't have just gotten an electric shock. He needs more practice."

Liang Xiaoyu thought to himself.

At this moment, Xie Xie laughed and said, "Uncle, how come you're so weak? A Soul Ancestor can't even withstand a single move from Soul Elder."

"Speaking of which, with this electric shock, you're going to lose even more of your already thinning hair, aren't you? You're not well-off to begin with, what are you going to do then?"

Liang Xiaoyu: "..."

That mouth of his is so sharp; I suddenly don't want to take him as a disciple anymore.
