Chapter 2: The Wind Baboon That Challenged the Gods

A light named hope seemed to shine upon these two youths.

"Fine, Su Yu will listen to you."

Huo Yuhao excitedly circulated his soul power, pushing his Spirit Eye to its limit, observing his surroundings for a suitable Soul Beast.

As a Spirit-type Soul Master, it must be said that in terms of early warning, Huo Gua was truly outstanding, avoiding several Soul Beasts in a row.

The protagonist is the protagonist after all; a black shadow darted out from the woods, slammed into Su Yu and sent him flying, then bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it pounced toward Huo Yuhao.

Su Yu took a closer look; it was a baboon only about a meter tall, covered in brownish-yellow fur, with brown eyes, sharp nails, and those fangs.

One didn't even need to look to know this was definitely the Wind Baboon that attempted to challenge the gods; if Huo Yuhao weren't the protagonist, he likely would have been killed by this thing.

"Damn it, that's too much. It slapped me the moment it appeared, it hurts like hell..."

Su Yu rubbed his back in pain. Just as the Wind Baboon had darted out, a wave of its arm had sent Su Yu flying. Because Huo Yuhao's sensory abilities were superior to an ordinary person's, he had dodged the blow; Huo Yuhao dodged, and Su Yu, who was traveling with Huo Yuhao, suffered the consequences.

Seeing Su Yu sent flying, Huo Yuhao shouted anxiously, "Su Yu!"

"I'm fine, don't get distracted, let's work together to kill this Wind Baboon."

Su Yu knew that as long as this Wind Baboon was killed, Huo Gua's life would change from this point on. Since he was witnessing the rise of a god, Su Yu had to help out while Huo Gua was still young, otherwise, it would be too late to cling to his coattails later.

The Wind Baboon pounced toward Huo Yuhao again, completely unaware of Su Yu, who had appeared behind it.

After failing to catch Huo Yuhao several times in a row, it began to be provoked by the human before it. It raised its fists and pounded its chest vigorously, opening its large mouth toward where Huo Yuhao was.

Subsequently, a ball of white light slowly condensed, and it looked as if it were about to fly toward Huo Yuhao.

Huo Gua was young after all; his face was pale, his whole body was trembling, and he was already at a loss. If he were hit by this strike, it would certainly be a catastrophe, a situation of certain death.

"What do I do, what do I do, how should I handle this? Mom, I don't want to die yet..."

Just as Huo Yuhao's mind went blank, a mirror brought with it a whistling wind and slammed directly onto the Wind Baboon's head.

"Damn it, it slapped me the moment it appeared, you think you're something special, huh!"

Hum!

The Wind Baboon shuddered, and the white light condensed in its mouth dissipated. It couldn't understand why a human it had sent flying was still alive.

After being struck by Su Yu swinging his Mirror Martial Soul, its head was buzzing on the spot.

"Yu Hao, quick, while it hasn't reacted, strike!"

Su Yu shouted at Huo Yuhao. Huo Gua still carried a White Tiger Dagger on him; if they had to rely on the two of them—these two "combat-five" weaklings—to kill this Wind Baboon, they would likely be exhausted. If they didn't use what they had, wouldn't it be a waste of this Soul Guidance Device?

At this moment, prompted by Su Yu, Huo Yuhao hurriedly regained his focus. It had to be said that the advantage of a Spirit-type Soul Master was obvious; the sensory ability was astonishing.

Seeing the Wind Baboon suppressed by Su Yu holding the mirror, being smashed a dozen times in a row, even the Wind Baboon was a bit stunned—where did this human come from who was so ruthless?

"Yu Hao, it's up to you..."

After all, Su Yu's soul power was only Level 10, and coupled with this twelve-year-old body, he didn't have much strength to begin with. If this hadn't just been a ten-year Wind Baboon, he reckoned that even if his Mirror Martial Soul shattered, he might not have been able to stun it.

Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate either; he took out the White Tiger Dagger directly. Having experienced the crisis just now, he deeply felt the terror of the Wind Baboon. He raised the White Tiger Dagger and stabbed it into the Wind Baboon's chest, and the Wind Baboon, still in a daze, immediately met its end.

Watching the rising white Soul Ring, Su Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Daring to challenge the gods is a good thing, but you also have to see who the protagonist of this story is. If you had worked a little harder and become a Century Soul Beast, you might have succeeded, but what a pity..."

Huo Yuhao looked in surprise at the white Soul Ring rising before him. We won, we won...

However, looking at the Wind-attribute Soul Ring before him, he hesitated a little; after all, he knew that an attribute that didn't suit him was ultimately unsuitable.

But, would he be able to obtain a Soul Ring in the future?

"Oh Heavens, I've waited seven years, and finally, I've waited for Huo Gua's invincible cheat."

Looking at Huo Yuhao, who was leaning against a tree in deep thought, Su Yu also revealed a satisfied smile.

Subsequently, seeing Huo Yuhao reveal a look of confusion, an expression of disbelief then filled Huo Yuhao's face.

Just at this moment, Su Yu pretended to stagger toward Huo Yuhao and said, "Yu Hao, my body hurts so much, I..."

Then his body went limp, and he collapsed seven or eight meters away from Huo Yuhao.

"I'm exhausted. If I didn't know I couldn't snatch this invincible cheat, I would have knocked you kid down long ago. Forget it, forget it, I'll sleep for a bit first, I'm exhausted. Damn, why am I really going to sleep? Tian Meng, it must be you playing tricks, damn you, won't you even let me watch the show..."

As the ground began to vibrate slowly, Su Yu's consciousness became increasingly blurred. Su Yu could guess with his toes that it was Tian Meng playing tricks; otherwise, how could he have fallen into a deep sleep for no reason?

What a beautiful dream it was...

*Slap*, a crisp sound of a slap woke Su Yu from his deep sleep. Looking at the three people before him, Su Yu asked in confusion.

"I'm not dead yet, am I?"

Apparently, a long time had passed since Huo Yuhao woke up and Tang Ya and Bei Bei found Huo Yuhao. He seemed to have basked in a bit of Huo Yuhao's glory and had been taken care of quite well.

Rubbing the slap mark on his face, Su Yu rolled his eyes, "Who hit me just now?"

At this time, Huo Yuhao, with a look of shame, said, "I'm sorry, I saw that you couldn't wake up, I was a bit worried about you, so I..."

Su Yu watched as Huo Yuhao's gaze fell intentionally or unintentionally on Bei Bei, and he immediately understood what had happened.

Damn it, I knew it was that bastard Bei Bei who came up with the idea. Damn you, next time you fall into a coma, I'll give you a slap and see how you like it!

"Yu Hao, your friend has also woken up. Where do you plan to go now?"

Tang Ya looked at Huo Yuhao's dazed appearance and then asked.

This question made Huo Yuhao even more confused. According to the original story, the next part would be Tang Ya gloating before being given a flick on the forehead by Bei Bei in return.

Sure enough, Tang Ya began to promote her sect to Huo Yuhao, the Tang Sect that once shook the Douluo Continent.

However, at present, only Tang Ya remained as the sole seedling, and there was also Bei Bei, who had been attracted by her beauty that day; he could be considered a typical matrilocal son-in-law.

"Sister Xiao Ya, are you talking about the Tang Sect founded by the Blue Haohao King, the Sea God Tang San?"

Although Su Yu knew, he still had to pretend he didn't.

"That's right, it's the Tang Sect. However, the Tang Sect has declined; its foundation was seized, and now only Bei Bei and I are left in the Tang Sect. I am the current Sect Master of the Tang Sect, and Bei Bei is my first disciple."

Tang Ya's eyes turned red. As a descendant of the Tang Sect, who wouldn't want to recreate the peerless glory of the Tang Sect back then? Ending up in this situation today was truly sigh-inducing.

"Sister Xiao Ya, Brother Bei Bei, can I join the Tang Sect? Although the Tang Sect has declined, I believe that gold will always shine. Even if the Tang Sect has declined, its former glory cannot be erased. I believe you won't lie to me. In the future, I firmly believe that the Tang Sect will definitely rebuild its glory!"

Su Yu stood up and spoke to Xiao Ya; his words were so resolute, so confident.

Bei Bei, who was on the side, coughed a few times and said, "I know you believe in us, but you also know the current situation of the Tang Sect. Although there are only the two of us in the Tang Sect now, we will definitely work hard to make the Tang Sect shine again, so do you really want to join the Tang Sect?"

Su Yu nodded and said firmly, "I will not regret it. I also yearn for the once incomparably glorious Tang Sect; it is my honor to be able to join the Tang Sect now!"

For the sake of joining the Tang Sect, for the sake of entering Shrek, and for the sake of my Wang Dong'er, I will give it my all!
