Chapter 17 I'm Here to Find the Body Sect
Huo Yuhao didn't say much, and Su Tong didn't ask any more questions.
She wasn't one to talk much anyway, and the fact that she was willing to say so much to Huo Yuhao was only because they were both top-tier Ice Soul Masters.
Every Soul Master is an independent individual who grows independently. Since Huo Yuhao has his own choices, Su Tong will not interfere too much.
After parting ways with Su Tong at the city gate, Ice Emperor in the Sea of Spirit transmitted a message to Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao," Ice Emperor withdrew his consciousness, "that little girl named Su Tong, her martial spirit seems to be..."
"They are the Ice and Snow Maidens, the same race as the Snow Empress," Huo Yuhao told her.
Hyotei sighed meaningfully: "The Ice and Snow Maiden has only ever been the Snow Empress. I never expected that such a martial spirit would appear in the human world."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm opened its mouth, but ultimately remained silent.
Huo Yuhao discovered the abnormality of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
Ever since it used its spiritual power to unleash the Great Thunderclap, the once lively and carefree Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm has become somewhat melancholy.
Huo Yuhao could guess what Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was thinking.
"Tianmeng," Huo Yuhao transmitted his voice, "Do you also want to cultivate spiritual power?"
Tianmeng Bingcan smiled, her tone dejected, and said, "I don't know."
It doesn't have the same boldness as Ice Emperor. It's still struggling with whether to get on Huo Yuhao's fast track to immortality or break free from its constraints and grow up on its own from scratch.
"When you figure things out, I can give you the same promise I made to Hyotei."
Huo Yuhao said this, and then stopped paying attention to the situation in his spiritual sea.
Regardless of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's initial purpose, Huo Yuhao still gained a considerable opportunity through it.
Therefore, he was willing to make a promise to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm that he would be reborn and cultivate in the future.
However, whether or not Tianmeng Ice Silkworm can cultivate the Talisman Master system depends entirely on the Martial Scripture's intentions.
Huo Yuhao walked on the streets of Tiandou City.
Unlike the relatively free atmosphere of Shrek City, Tiandou City, being the capital of the Tianhun Empire, is filled with a solemn atmosphere.
The buildings in the style of the Heavenly Soul Empire stood tall on both sides of the street, and the vendors' cries were very restrained, only introducing their goods to passers-by in hushed tones.
In the Imperial Square in the city center, a statue of the first emperor, tens of meters tall, holds a giant sword and gazes into the distance.
The Imperial Academy is located not far from the Imperial Square.
"As the capital of a country, it certainly has a completely different style from Shrek City."
Looking at the Di'ao students who maintained an upright posture even when entering and exiting, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but sigh, "The students here seem to be much more disciplined than those at Shrek Academy."
"Young man, you have good taste!"
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, a burly young man laughed and patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder: "Our Imperial Academy is far superior to those shameless people!"
Huo Yuhao recognized the man's identity as he was wearing the Di'ao Academy uniform.
"Brother," Huo Yuhao asked, "how shameless has Shrek Academy become?"
The young man first muttered a few curses about Shrek Academy, then said to Huo Yuhao, "Young brother, you must be new to Heaven Dou City. You don't know what happened recently."
Huo Yuhao stared at the overly familiar young man, waiting for him to continue.
"Some time ago, a Title Douluo named Xuanzi came to our Di'ao Academy and immediately accused Di'ao of deceiving their super martial soul freshman named Huo Yuhao."
"What a huge joke."
The young man scoffed, "It's their freedom to choose which academy they want to join. What business is it of Shrek Academy's to interfere? According to their logic, does that mean every slightly better martial soul in the world has to belong to Shrek Academy?"
"He doesn't even know what kind of martial soul the other person has, yet he has the nerve to come and ask for the person back."
"I... gulp."
The young man swallowed the saliva he was about to spit on the ground.
Huo Yuhao blinked, already having a guess in his mind.
It's probably what Beibei and Tang Ya said.
They mistook themselves for the owner of a super martial soul when they used the Taiqing Skywalk, and then reported this to Shrek Academy, which ultimately led to Shrek coming to demand their return.
Huo Yuhao already had a poor impression of Shrek Academy.
When he was shopping for supplies in Shrek City, a shop owner mistook him for a new student and kindly told him that he needed to prepare a recommendation letter from the main city in advance, as only then could he enroll.
If not, you can go to the City Lord's Mansion in Shrek City and ask someone to buy a recommendation letter for 888 gold soul coins, which can only be used once.
From that moment on, Huo Yuhao came to believe that Shrek Academy, shrouded in the stench of money, was unworthy of the title of the "holy land of soul masters" that his mother, Huo Yun'er, spoke of.
Hearing about Shrek Academy's actions from the young man further worsened Huo Yuhao's impression of the academy.
If you want a Soul Master with both a good family background and good talent, just say so. Don't pretend to be a holy land for commoners to rise up.
The Body Sect's tacit acceptance that all Body Soul Masters are its disciples may seem shameless, but at least they dare to openly declare this.
"That's truly shameless," Huo Yuhao said. "It's practically banditry."
"That's exactly what I meant!"
The young man found Huo Yuhao increasingly pleasing to the eye: "Young man, your insight is truly remarkable! Among young Soul Masters, there aren't many with your level of understanding!"
"So how was this matter resolved?" Huo Yuhao asked, puzzled.
The young man replied, "In the end, it was only after our Dean of the Imperial Academy, Prince Xuexin, intervened that Xuanzi was driven away."
"Before leaving, Xuanzi said that when the Soul Master Competition comes, he will make Huo Yuhao regret not choosing Shrek Academy."
"Oh right, I haven't introduced myself yet."
The outgoing young man slapped his forehead: "My name is Jiang Peng, and I'm the captain of the Di'ao team. May I ask your name, young man?"
Huo Yuhao grinned, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Huo Yuhao."
He could almost see himself as the culprit for Shrek coming to his door.
"You're Huo Yuhao?! You're the person Shrek Academy is looking for?!" Jiang Peng's smile vanished, and he exclaimed in surprise.
He circled Huo Yuhao several times before finally touching his chin and asking in a puzzled tone:
"That's not right. When Shrek came to find you, it was the day the new students enrolled at Di'ao, but you hadn't joined Di'ao yet."
"Given the capabilities of your super martial soul, you couldn't have been delayed on the way, could you? Why are you only arriving at Di'ao now?"
"The new student enrollment is over. Come on, I'll take you to the dean to complete the enrollment procedures."
Huo Yuhao scratched his head sheepishly: "I was indeed delayed for a while because I had to go hunting for souls."
Jiang Peng's pupils dilated: "How old are you this year, and you're already a Soul Master?"
"He is a Great Soul Master," Huo Yuhao said.
Then, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and two spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, slowly rose up.
"Eye?"
"A true martial soul?!"
"Brother Jiang Peng," Huo Yuhao said, "I'm sorry, but I'm not joining Di'ao Academy."
"My goal is the Body Sect."
