……
In a simple house on an island in the middle of a lake in the Starry Sky Forest...
A red-haired girl,
He slowly opened his eyes.
As soon as she woke up, it seemed as if she had remembered something.
He sat up abruptly.
The sudden movement aggravated the wound.
The sudden, excruciating pain made her grimace.
She collapsed back onto the bed.
"Don't move around, your injury isn't fully healed yet."
Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice rang in her ear.
The girl looked in the direction of the sound and saw a boy who looked only eight or nine years old.
She was slowly walking towards him: "It was you... who saved me?"
"I guess so. Lie down first, we can talk about it after you've recovered."
Huo Yuhao walked to Ma Xiaotao's side.
A green light emanated from his hands once again.
Ma Xiaotao, whose face was already pale from the pain,
His expression immediately relaxed considerably.
"Thanks……"
However, before Ma Xiaotao could finish saying "thank you"...
She was completely stunned.
This Huo Yuhao... looks like he's only eight or nine years old, right?
But her beauty was absolutely captivating, surpassing even that of a beautiful woman.
Even Ma Xiaotao, who prides herself on being the top beauty at Shrek Academy,
For a moment, I also felt ashamed of myself.
"You... are you a girl?" Ma Xiaotao asked subconsciously.
Huo Yuhao was momentarily bewildered by Ma Xiaotao's sudden question: "Huh? What makes me look like a girl?"
Huo Yuhao had never really paid attention to appearance.
However, after these several evolutions of the martial soul,
His appearance seems to have been optimized along with his martial soul.
If we were to say that he relied on his sincere character in the past,
To attract the favor of others,
Now we don't need to.
Just standing there is enough to draw countless people to the area.
"Um... just pretend I didn't say anything..." Ma Xiaotao stared blankly at Huo Yuhao's face, only snapping out of her daze after a long while.
Her pretty face flushed instantly, and she turned her head away.
Huo Yuhao: "?"
"By the way..." After a short while, Ma Xiaotao calmed herself down and asked again, "Elder Xuan... the old man who said he would take me away? How is he?"
"He was chased away by my elders and probably won't be back anytime soon," Huo Yuhao said softly. "Besides, he made such a big mistake this time. Shrek Academy is the number one academy in the world, they certainly won't let him leave the academy so easily, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao scoffed, "Wouldn't leave the academy at will? How could that be..."
"He holds a very high position at Shrek Academy. It's just a matter of a few students' lives. There's absolutely no way he'll be punished."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao feigned surprise, asking as if he already knew the answer, "How could this be? Even if he's incredibly strong, there's a right and wrong, and we should be reasonable, right?" "Could it be that he's already all-powerful at Shrek Academy?"
Ma Xiaotao sighed softly, clearly feeling utterly helpless: "Although he hasn't completely dominated the world yet, he's almost there. After all, the Taotie Divine Ox martial soul is just too rare... There really aren't many strong people like him in the academy."
"I see... You students who put him in charge are really pitiful. You thought it was a guarantee, but it turned out to be a hidden danger." Huo Yuhao's tone carried a hint of pity.
"There's no way to punish him... unless all the students like me die at his hands, that might be the only possibility," Ma Xiaotao said with a bitter smile.
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes.
Although they knew that Xuanzi held a transcendent position at Shrek Academy
But he never imagined it would be worth more than the lives of all the geniuses...
Is this the difference between geniuses and strong people?
Only those who grow up will be taken seriously by Shrek.
"Don't think too much about it. Let's figure something out when we get back to the academy after we've recovered from our injuries. Judging from that senior's attitude towards you, you must have a pretty high status in the academy, right?" Huo Yuhao slightly activated his mental energy.
He comforted Ma Xiaotao.
Ma Xiaotao remained silent, seemingly genuinely disappointed with Shrek Academy this time.
"I...don't want to go back to Shrek Academy," Ma Xiaotao suddenly said.
"Then no... Huh? What?"
Just as I was about to continue speaking along the lines of Ma Xiaotao,
Huo Yuhao then realized the problem with her words.
"I told you I don't want to go back to Shrek Academy." Ma Xiaotao carefully sat up from the bed.
A hint of resentment and stubbornness flashed in her eyes: "Where are you from? After you're done with your work in the Star Dou Great Forest, can you take me with you?"
"This isn't a good idea..." Huo Yuhao said with a wry smile, "I...we don't even know each other yet..."
Ma Xiaotao grinned: "Hey, is that even a big deal? My name is Ma Xiaotao, I'm sixteen years old, an inner disciple of Shrek Academy, a level 59 Power Attack type Soul King. My hobbies... does fighting count?"
"What...what are you doing?" Huo Yuhao seemed a little out of sync with Ma Xiaotao's train of thought.
"Didn't you say we didn't know each other yet? Now we do! What's your name? Your cultivation level seems pretty high. How old are you?" Ma Xiaotao asked with a grin.
Looking at his older sister from his previous life's cheerful and optimistic appearance, Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with a hint of relief: "My name is Huo Yuhao, and I'm almost nine years old... a level 45 Soul Master. Nice to meet you."
"Holy crap?! Nine years old?! Level 45 Soul Master??? Are you serious?!"
Seeing Ma Xiaotao's shocked expression, Huo Yuhao smiled.
With a thought, four spirit rings—three purple and one black—appeared out of thin air on his body.
Ma Xiaotao stared intently at the four spirit rings on Huo Yuhao's body.
His expression shifted several times, then he took a deep breath, covered his face,
His face was full of frustration: "I thought I was one of the top geniuses in Shrek, but the teacher was right, there are always people better than you..."
"Are you really human? This age and this cultivation level are simply too monstrous..."
Hearing Ma Xiaotao's sour words, Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "It's alright, you flatter me. Actually, I think you should be able to do what I'm at, Xiaotao, but you're just being held back by some things."
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao's expression suddenly froze, then, as if she had thought of something, her expression immediately became serious.
If she remembers correctly,
When facing that 100,000-year-old creature...
In order to survive,
This was the first time I actively and fully activated the evil fire within my body.
He brought the power of darkness to its extreme.
Even if one remains conscious in that state,
The mind can also be filled with violent emotions.
But now he doesn't have any of the aftereffects of the rampant evil fire.
Could it be that this kid... did something else to me?
