Chapter 96: The Hidden Danger of the Body Sect

Although Su Yu had this thought, he dared not assert it, and could only wait for Wang Dong to reveal it himself.

Just as Wang Dong pulled him to an empty space, Wang Dong habitually reached out and clasped Su Yu's hand.

"What are you doing?" Su Yu was increasingly puzzled; Wang Dong's behavior had become more and more unfathomable lately, and Su Yu even suspected that he was planning to confess his identity.

But the next instant, something that shocked Su Yu occurred: the aura of Wang Dong's soul power was actually somewhat similar to his own, even giving Su Yu the illusion that it was his own soul power.

Back when they were at Shrek Academy, Su Yu had also tried to see if he could perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Wang Dong, but multiple experiments had ended in failure; the soul power and martial souls of the two had absolutely no similar aura or possibility of fusion.

This time, their soul power had actually produced a fusion; since it could fuse, there must be some change that had occurred, and this change should not be on his own end.

Could it be, that time...

"You are thinking correctly. That little girl has the same aura as you in her body. Last time you passed the Life Force to her, it was conducted through your body, which caused the Life Force she absorbed to be tainted with your aura. Plus, that amount of Life Force was not a small number; although it still cannot compare to the Life Gold you absorbed, relative to reality, it would take at least several years for the Star Dou Great Forest to condense such an amount."

Electrolux in his mind suddenly spoke up, and this opening remark directly confirmed Su Yu's conjecture.

Only Wang Dong himself knew how vast the Life Force Su Yu had given him was. Originally, the Life Gold had no aura, but after Su Yu's absorption and refinement, it invisibly took on Su Yu's aura, which led to Wang Dong's soul power also having a common compatibility with Su Yu's.

"This, how is this possible?!"

Although he had already guessed the general idea, Su Yu still widened his eyes in disbelief.

"I hadn't discovered it either at first. After absorbing the Life Force in your body last time, I found that my soul power seemed to have a bit of your aura. I originally thought it was because the Life Force I absorbed hadn't been fully refined, but until I completely refined it, I realized that my soul power was already able to fuse with yours."

Wang Dong spoke with an excited face; clearly, he had secretly tried it many times before, otherwise, he wouldn't be explaining it to Su Yu now.

"Judging by your tone, it seems you secretly tried it many times while I was asleep. I suddenly feel that it is truly a stroke of luck that I wasn't killed by you." To be fair, a Martial Soul Fusion Skill itself carries a certain degree of danger; that he could live safely until now was truly thanks to his ancestors going to drink with the King of Hell themselves.

Wang Dong still spoke with a proud face: "That's right, isn't this master very amazing? From now on, we can also perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, right?"

"Good lad, you still have the nerve to say that. What if an accident had happened? It's fortunate that no accident occurred, otherwise, both you and I would have been in trouble. Let me see if I shouldn't punish you properly..."

Although he said that, Su Yu still took the opportunity to stretch his wicked hands toward Wang Dong, looking like he was about to tickle him.

"Pfft, your speed is too slow. Watch this Class Monitor's counterattack; let you also experience the feeling of being tickled."

The moment Su Yu made a move, he was preempted by Wang Dong, who tickled Su Yu's waist. But as Wang Dong increased the intensity of the tickling, the Su Yu opposite him looked at Wang Dong with a calm face. When Wang Dong looked at Su Yu with a cute, dazed expression, Su Yu could no longer hold back and burst into laughter while clutching his stomach.

"Why don't you have any reaction? Is it because I'm tickling the wrong place?"

The dazed-looking Wang Dong tried again, but in the end, he returned empty-handed. From beginning to end, he couldn't figure out why Su Yu had no reaction at all; where exactly did the problem arise?

"Don't you know that not everyone is as ticklish as a pig like you?"

As he spoke, he reached out and poked Wang Dong's forehead, feeling both annoyed and amused.

I have to say, this little Wang Dong is truly both cute and dazed, and tsundere...

Sigh, since you don't understand why, let me, Su, teach you hand-in-hand what it means to be tickled.

With a light slide of his fingers, Wang Dong's body bounced up violently as if struck by electricity.

"Hahaha, stop tickling, stop tickling, I was wrong, I was wrong, is that not enough..."

Wang Dong, with a lingering fear, wrapped his hands around his waist, protecting his slender waist tightly.

"Alright, alright, stop messing around, let's talk about the serious business first; I'll settle this score with you next time."

Su Yu stepped forward and carefully took Wang Dong's hands. The two placed their palms against each other, carefully controlling the circulation of their soul power. Their soul power fused at their palms and then flowed back into their respective bodies.

As time passed, Wang Dong still felt that this efficiency was too low. While Su Yu was closing his eyes to circulate his soul power, he directly pulled Su Yu over, and the two just hugged each other like that.

Although, Yi Lao in his mind also nodded meaningfully, and then very tactfully closed off all his senses.

From then on, Yi Lao fell silent, with no further sound.

The subsequent soul power fusion continued, yet the pressure brought to everyone by the approaching finals still weighed on them like a giant rock, making them unable to breathe.

In the spacious lobby of the Star Emperor Hotel, everyone was waiting for Su Yu's arrival, but instead, they waited for two uninvited guests.

"Who are you? This is the resting place for our Shrek Academy, so please leave." Wang Yan, who was in the middle of thinking, stood up and looked at the two, then spoke.

They were two men, both very ordinary in appearance, but their builds were very peculiar. One had an exceptionally thick right arm, while the other was thin and small with a huge head, just like a big-headed doll.

The two looked around, and finally, their gazes locked onto Huo Yu Hao.

The man with the thick arm said: "You can leave, but this little fellow must stay; we want to talk to him." This person spoke in a muffled voice; although he was clearly trying his best to suppress it, he still exuded a terrifying and intimidating aura. The direction his finger pointed was exactly Huo Yu Hao.

Huo Yu Hao was also stunned, "I don't know you."

The other big-headed man looked at Huo Yu Hao, smiled slightly, and said: "Don't we know each other now?" His eyes were very peculiar, and his gaze was surprisingly gentle; Wang Yan and Xu Sanshi felt a trance in their eyes when they saw his gaze. Huo Yu Hao's heart suddenly tightened, and the golden light of his Spirit Eye was already clearly radiating out.

Clearly, the other party had already used a soul skill, but Huo Yu Hao's Spirit Eye neutralized this strange power.

If Su Yu were here, he would definitely be able to recognize these two people; they were disciples of the Body Sect, and their purpose this time was for Huo Yu Hao.

"We have no malice, we just want to chat with you. If you don't want the people around you to get hurt, then come with us." The big-headed man looked at Huo Yu Hao with a hint of surprise in his eyes, then led the man with the thick right arm toward the lounge area on one side of the lobby. There were a few sofas there, provided for guests of the hotel to take a short rest.

Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yaoheng, who were on the side, were about to make a move, but were stopped by Wang Yan. Clearly, these two people did not have much malice, and in a situation where it was not yet clear whether they were enemies or friends, it was better to wait and see.

Although Huo Yu Hao was also shocked, he still nodded and slowly said: "I understand, I will go with you."

"Wait, as his teacher, I have an obligation to be by his side to protect his safety." Wang Yan's sense of responsibility was still very strong; after all, Huo Yu Hao was still his student.

Huo Yu Hao and Wang Yan sat down in front of the two. Huo Yu Hao asked: "What do you two want with me? I think this is the first time I've seen you."

The big-headed man smiled slightly, nodded, and said: "Of course. However, we have been observing you for a period of time. If I'm not mistaken, your first martial soul, which should also be your main attribute martial soul, is your eyes, and your first soul skill is a capability similar to Spirit Detection, which can even be shared with companions. Furthermore, you have practiced a type of Spirit Shock capability through special cultivation methods. According to my judgment, it is very similar to the Purple Demon Eye of the Tang Sect from the past. And the second soul skill of your eye martial soul should be a capability similar to confusion or Simulation. I remember there is a type of Ice Silkworm in the north that seems to be adept at using this capability to fake death and deceive enemies. I wonder if I am right?"

It must be said that the foundation of the Body Sect is also surprisingly astonishing, and their grasp of Huo Yu Hao is also like the back of their hand.

This emergence was clearly also for Huo Yu Hao. The Body Sect has always had an unwritten rule: anyone in the world with a Body Martial Soul is a disciple of the Body Sect.

This statement is truly overbearing, but the Body Sect has such confidence. The Body Sect is indeed powerful, but it has gradually declined later on, mainly because there are too few people with Body Martial Souls, and coupled with the fact that there are very few powerful ones, it is destined to be difficult to develop.

Actually, if Huo Yu Hao were to go to the Body Sect, he would lose the series of opportunities that follow, so it is impossible to arrange that in the original work.

Looking at the shock in Huo Yu Hao's eyes, the big-headed man continued: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lang Ya, and this is my brother Yu Tao. We come from the Body Sect; I believe you must have heard of it."

Lang Ya smiled slightly at Huo Yu Hao and said: "I'll get straight to the point. Our purpose in finding you is very simple: we want to bring you back to the sect."

"Return?" Huo Yu Hao was stunned for a moment; he had never joined any sect!

Lang Ya nodded and said: "That is to return. The Body Sect is the home of all Soul Masters who possess a Body Martial Soul. Since your martial soul is your eyes, then you are a part of the Body Sect. Since we have discovered you, we naturally have to take you home."

When the other party proposed that Huo Yu Hao go to the Body Sect, Huo Yu Hao was ten thousand times unwilling. He had joined the Tang Sect, then joined Shrek Academy, won the championship of the freshman competition with Su Yu, and even became a Core Disciple of Shrek's Martial Soul Department.

But the Body Sect gave him nothing, and they wanted Huo Yu Hao to join them with just one sentence; Huo Yu Hao would absolutely not agree.

Just as the other party intended to use force, Xuan Lao appeared, repelling the two with a single Chicken Leg, and did not forget to mock them thoroughly once it was over.

After sending Huo Yu Hao back, Xuan Lao gazed in the direction the two had departed and fell into deep thought.

The Body Sect's justification was indeed sufficient; although it was a bit thuggish, once such an unwritten rule is formed, it becomes recognized by all parties. At this moment, as long as someone Breaks this rule, it will inevitably lead to disputes. The later incident where the Body Sect descended directly upon Shrek was, to a large extent, also sparked by this matter.

At this moment, Su Yu and Wang Dong were still attempting to see if they could perform a Martial Soul Fusion. After going back and forth with over a dozen attempts, they finally felt a subtle connection. Su Yu knew that with this kind of connection, performing a Martial Soul Fusion was a sure thing.

They had originally intended to continue the attempts, but both of their Spirit Power had been consumed quite heavily, so they had to terminate the attempts.

When Su Yu and Wang Dong arrived at the Star Emperor Hotel, Xuan Lao happened to still be lingering in the lounge area.

"Xuan Lao, what has happened this time?"

Watching the furrowed brow of Xuan Lao, Su Yu quietly calculated the time in his heart and roughly knew what moment this was.

The people from the Body Sect had been here.

"This matter is somewhat troublesome; a little brat like you shouldn't ask. This old man has things to do, so I'll be going first. You kid are sharp, help me look after Huo Yu Hao."

Saying this, Xuan Lao vanished from Su Yu's field of vision. It seemed likely that the Sea God Pavilion would have to hold a meeting again this time, and the content of this meeting would be the direction of the Body Sect.

When Su Yu appeared in the conference room, everyone looked in unison at Su Yu and Wang Dong. Bei Bei, who was to the side, came up and immediately said: "Little Junior Brother, just now..."

Before the words were finished, Su Yu interrupted, "Xuan Lao has already told me. The academy will handle this matter, so we don't need to worry about it. With Xuan Lao's ability, I believe the academy will handle it well. Rather than wasting time here, it would be better to think about the strategy for tomorrow."

When Su Yu took his seat, everyone then shifted the focus of the topic to the competition.

Tomorrow's match was destined to be an unusual battle.

Three main team members, plus seven substitute members, and one seemingly unreliable but actually reliable, suave replacement.

What they were about to face were the official members of the Sun Moon Empire; the reality behind this battle did not just represent the issue of the academy's honor.

It was a collision between the top new generation of the Sun Moon Empire and the Three Great Empires. If they lost, it would become a political issue for the Three Great Empires.

Although the future is indeed the era of Soul Guidance, in this era of transition between the old and the new, overly avant-garde ideas are ultimately not tolerated by the times. Every revolution heralds the arrival of troubled times, and likewise, it heralds the coming of war.

The collision of ideas between the new and old eras destined that the revolution would not be smooth, and would even be incomparably bumpy and arduous...
