Chapter 27 Finding Fault
Chapter 27 Finding Fault
The Body Sect returned victorious, and everyone was in high spirits.
In fact, they all understood that the reason they were able to achieve such results this time was entirely because they occupied the moral high ground, which made Shrek Academy hesitant and unable to fight back.
Even so, they still felt triumphant, and the pent-up frustration of being secluded for many years was swept away.
Xuanzi flew silently in the middle of the group the whole time, refusing to say a word no matter how much Du Busi provoked him.
Ma Xiaotao, on the other hand, was being carried by Song Yunzhi and had no chance to speak to Huo Yuhao.
The Body Sect already knew about her martial soul—a fire phoenix at the quasi-ultimate fire level—but it couldn't fly. It could only rely on its third soul skill, Phoenix Wings Soaring, to briefly gain the ability to fight in the air.
The Body Sect was curious about why her fire phoenix hadn't evolved into the ultimate fire, but they didn't care.
"That old bastard Moon is actually plotting to kill two birds with one stone."
Poison Undying thought to himself, "She's even thinking of arranging a marriage between her and my Yuhao? Bah! Ma Xiaotao doesn't even deserve it!"
"Don't think I don't know what your purpose is. You just want to use the power of extreme ice to stimulate the evolution of her martial soul through the extreme violence of ice and fire, which are incompatible, after the failed marriage. Wishful thinking!"
He turned to look at Huo Yuhao, who was flying behind him, and suddenly asked, "Kid, what are your requirements for finding a wife?"
Huo Yuhao was stunned, and cold sweat involuntarily slid down his forehead.
"Teacher, I'm only eleven years old. Isn't it a bit too early to ask this?"
He hadn't considered this issue at all: "Right now, I just want to focus on improving my strength and then get my revenge. I have absolutely no thoughts of romance."
Ma Xiaotao glanced at Huo Yuhao in surprise.
Eleven years old?
She scrutinized Huo Yuhao carefully and found that his appearance and behavior at Shrek Academy were not at all like those of an eleven-year-old child.
And what kind of revenge did he mention?
Ma Xiaotao vaguely sensed that she had seized the opportunity that her teacher, Yan Shaozhe, had mentioned.
Poison Undying laughed: "I forgot you're eleven years old. You don't look eleven at all."
"It's fine if you're not in a hurry. When we get back, I'll urge Xueheng to have another baby while you're still young, so it won't delay your future marriage prospects."
Du Busi believed that Huo Yuhao's current status meant that ordinary women were not good enough for him; she should be at least a princess of a country or the beloved daughter of a top-tier soul master family.
As for the princesses from the Douluo Three Kingdoms side, those from the Xingluo side can be excluded.
If Huo Yuhao doesn't bring Dai Hao's head to cause trouble for the White Tiger Duke's Mansion after he takes revenge, then Xingluo will be burning incense in gratitude.
As for Tianhun, the only princess here, Vina, has already established a romantic relationship with Long Aotian.
As for Dou Ling... never mind.
Du Bu Si felt that the Body Sect alone could wipe out their royal family.
If their princess were to actually marry Huo Yuhao, regardless of who would be marrying into whose family, the Heavenly Soul Royal Family alone would not allow its own guardian sect to form a marriage alliance with the Fighting Spirit faction.
Huo Yuhao wiped the cold sweat from his temples.
He smiled wryly and said, "Teacher, please don't worry about these things. I just want to focus on my cultivation now."
"It's good to be prepared. You're the apple of our Body Sect's eye, so we naturally need to carefully consider your future marriage." Jin Peng chuckled. "I think the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is quite good. You two, one offensive and one supportive, would be a good match."
Huo Yuhao broke out in a cold sweat: "Elder Jinpeng is joking."
Seeing Huo Yuhao like this, the members of the Body Sect couldn't help but get interested and started teasing him.
In the end, they even started arguing heatedly, each believing that the person they had found for Huo Yuhao was the right match, and that what others said was just random matchmaking.
"Give birth to another princess!" That was the voice of Poison Undying.
Jin Peng retorted loudly, "Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
"Haotian Fortress! No, they've gone into seclusion; we don't even know if their successor is male or female."
"Let's bring back Biji from the Star Dou Great Forest. If that's not possible, we can try to capture Xue Di."
Huo Yuhao's eyebrows twitched violently.
Within the Sea of Spirit, the Ice Emperor roared, "What do you mean, 'If all else fails, let the Snow Emperor come!' How is the Snow Emperor inferior to that green-headed goose! Besides, the Snow Emperor can only be... can only be the supreme ruler of the soul beasts of the far north!"
Huo Yuhao felt ashamed, thinking to himself, "Is this the time to worry about this?"
And Hyotei, why are you joining in the fun with them?
Huo Yuhao unleashed his Azure Sky Profound Ice Dragon Martial Soul, and the extremely cold aura spread, causing everyone present to shiver.
The members of the Body Sect then stopped arguing.
"Teacher, and elders, it's not too late to talk about this after I come of age."
Huo Yuhao said helplessly, "It's really too early to talk about this now."
Xuanzi, who had been silent all along, turned and glanced at Ma Xiaotao after sensing the extremely cold air.
He suddenly snorted coldly and said, "A bunch of vulgar people, thinking nothing but unrealistic things."
Upon hearing this, Du Busi's eyes flashed with a cold light.
He flew to Xuanzi's side and scolded, "Old ox, what did you say?!"
Xuanzi immediately glared back. He sneered, "I say your Body Sect is delusional! You bunch of lunatics, do you even dare to covet the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School?!"
Poison Undying's soul power surged: "What? You Shrek Academy people think you can control everything, and now you want to interfere with my Body Sect? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourselves in the mirror!"
Xuanzi was so provoked by his words that his beard and hair stood on end: "If you can't be poisoned, you..."
"What do you mean, 'you'?!"
Poison Undying interrupted him directly: "Don't forget you're a prisoner now!"
Remembering Yan Shaozhe's instructions, Ma Xiaotao exchanged a glance with Song Yunzhi and then let the latter release her grip.
She used her third soul skill, Phoenix Wings Soaring, and a magnificent, enormous fire wing and phoenix tail instantly appeared behind her, temporarily granting her the ability to fly.
"You are not allowed to humiliate Elder Xuan!"
Upon seeing this, Huo Yuhao immediately used his ultimate ice shield to envelop Ma Xiaotao.
With Ma Xiaotao's current strength, she is no match for Du Busi.
However, as a junior of the Body Sect, Huo Yuhao, with his absolute martial soul suppression power, had to show his attitude at this moment.
The icy blue, frigid air transformed into a dragon-shaped beam of light, freezing all the flames emanating from Ma Xiaotao's body with pure elemental suppression.
"Teacher, and elders, Heaven Dou City is just ahead."
Seeing that the atmosphere was tense and on the verge of exploding, Huo Yuhao said, "We need to descend from the sky."
Xuanzi snorted coldly and enveloped Ma Xiaotao, who was shivering from the cold, with his soul power: "What kind of skill is it to suppress with pure martial soul attributes? If you have the ability, let him fight Xiaotao one-on-one."
"How dare you say such a thing?!"
Poison Undying landed on the ground, and the first thing she did was kick Xuanzi: "She's a six-ring Soul Emperor, four rings more than Yuhao! How dare you let her fight Yuhao one-on-one? Why don't you let her fight me? I only have three rings more than her!"
Two men, both over two hundred years old, started wrestling on the ground without any regard for decorum.
The members of the Body Sect neither stepped forward to help nor to mediate the fight; instead, they all stood aside with great interest, beginning to instruct the Poison Undying.
"Sect Master, pull his hair!"
"Kicking my crotch, kicking my crotch! Ouch, why are you kicking my ass?!"
Ma Xiaotao then approached Huo Yuhao and asked, "You must be the young sect master of the Body Sect. Is this your way of treating guests?"
Huo Yuhao responded: "First of all, I am not the young sect master of the Body Sect."
Then he laughed incredulously: "Secondly, I want to say, a guest? His current identity is that of a prisoner of the Heavenly Soul Empire! The fact that we didn't seal his soul power is already a great favor to Shrek Academy."
Ma Xiaotao's face darkened, and she took a step closer.
"A teacher's insult is a student's insult," she said. "I'll only use the first two soul skills. As a member of the Body Sect, do you dare accept my challenge?"
