Chapter 152 You just don't understand Huo Yuhao and are making hasty conclusions.
Before Yan'er could even express her opinion upon seeing this, she noticed that Yu Mengdi beside her was once again frowning.
Yan'er's heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself, "Why are they here again?" She quickly reached out and grabbed the other person's arm.
"Mengdi, Mengdi, don't get agitated."
Yan'er lowered her voice and advised, "Didn't the teachers from Shrek Academy just come to our academy to explain this not long ago?"
"As you already know, things aren't like what you guessed at all. There was no such thing as being imprisoned in a secret room. The other party was simply exhausted from fighting the evil spirit master."
"At the time, I was indeed prejudiced and jumped to conclusions based on the boy's appearance, thinking he was the victim. But now it seems I was terribly wrong!" Mengdi's voice was filled with suppressed anger.
"He's clearly in ambiguous relationships with several girls in the team, probably spending all his time partying. Now, he's even going so far as to try and seduce girls from other colleges. He really is the beast in human form!"
Yu Mengdi's sense of justice grew stronger, and she showed extreme shame and indignation at this behavior of toying with the pure hearts of girls.
Seeing her like this, Yan'er felt a little embarrassed and could only say in a low voice, "Mengdi, even if he really is like that, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with us, right? It's a matter of one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit."
To be honest, if I had the chance, I'd really like to be friends with him. Look at him, not only is he good-looking, but he's also from Shrek Academy, which means he's extremely talented. I think it's not that he's seducing female students from other academies, but rather that other girls are practically throwing themselves at him.
Yu Mengdi's beautiful golden eyes widened suddenly, startled by Yan'er's words.
"Yan'er, how could you think like that? What about a girl's dignity? Just because someone is good-looking, does that mean you can do whatever you want? As a descendant of the angel race, I would never be deceived by his hypocritical appearance!"
"Alright, alright, we won't be fooled that easily." Yan'er reassured her perfunctorily, but her gaze returned to the bushes. "But doesn't that girl look familiar?"
She scratched the back of her head, then her eyes suddenly lit up, and she gave a look of amused curiosity:
"I remember now, aren't they members of the Sun Moon Empire team? Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy getting together, this is huge news!"
As she spoke, Yan'er's eyes sparkled with excitement, and she took out an extremely exquisite square box from her storage soul tool.
The box was no bigger than the palm of my hand, made entirely of silver-white metal, and had a retractable lens-like device on the front.
"Mengdi, this thing is a soul tool that came from the Sun Moon Empire. It's a rare find that I managed to get on the black market."
Yu Mengdi frowned slightly. Zheng Tian Academy's school spirit was even more traditional and conservative than Shrek Academy's, and the academy didn't even have a Soul Guidance Department. At this moment, she naturally didn't recognize the novel Soul Guidance Device that Yan'er had taken out.
Yan'er had already fiddled with it skillfully for a while, pointing the camera at Huo Yuhao and Meng Hongchen, and gently pressing a button on the side.
A soft clicking sound came from inside the box, and soon a thin card slowly emerged from the gap at the top of the box.
Because of the darkness, the obstruction of the trees, and the great distance, the contents of the photo were extremely blurry, and even the people in it were not clearly visible. Only the outlines of a man and a woman and their intimate posture could be barely discerned.
If you weren't familiar with them, you probably wouldn't be able to tell who the people in the photos are.
When Ke Yumengdi saw Yan'er holding that photo as if it were some priceless treasure, her expression changed drastically.
"Yan'er." Her voice suddenly rose several decibels, "Whatever you originally intended to do, destroy this thing right now! If anyone finds out, even the academy might not be able to protect you!"
Yu Mengdi was really anxious.
Because of that rumor, the teachers from Shrek Academy came to my door.
If it weren't for the fact that it didn't cause any major harm, and that the subsequent rumors were completely distorted when they were spread, she would probably have been seriously injured even if she hadn't died.
As a result, Yan'er actually produced a physical evidence of the boy and the girl from the Sun Moon Empire being intimate.
Given how important that boy is to Shrek Academy, if this thing gets out, Yan'er's life might not even be saved.
It's not just Shrek Academy that will cause her trouble; the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy won't let her off the hook either.
Yan'er was startled by her reaction and instinctively hid the photo behind her back. She pouted and whispered her defense.
"Mengdi, didn't I just tell you? If I had the chance, I'd like to be friends with that guy too. This thing is our stepping stone. Don't you want to get to know him better?"
Perhaps he's not what you think at all? Aren't you even a little curious about why he attracts so many female students from Shrek Academy, and now even girls from the Sun Moon Empire are throwing themselves at him?
Listening to Yan'er's devilish whispers, Yu Mengdi suddenly realized that she was indeed curious deep down.
Even the bloodline within him, belonging to the angel race and meant to be sacred and radiant, faltered at this moment.
She remained silent for a moment, then finally spoke up.
"Your soul tool shouldn't leave any records or anything, right?"
If there is only one photo of the actual object, then even if things get out of control, there is still room for recovery.
But if that soul tool can infinitely copy photos, then she has to smash it to pieces right here today.
"Don't worry, it's unique." Yan'er immediately explained, "The image left by that soul tool isn't achieved through soul power, but rather requires a special ore to develop it. After it's used once, the ore will completely shatter into powder, and it can't be replicated."
As she spoke, Yan'er pulled open a small drawer on the side of the photo box and poured out some shiny mineral powder to prove that she was not lying.
Seeing this, Yu Mengdi felt slightly relieved, but she still reached out her hand and said, "Even so, keep that thing with me for now, and we'll talk about it after this is all over."
Yu Mengdi's pretty face flushed slightly, feeling a pang of shame for her behavior, which violated the rules of the angel race.
"Okay~" Yan'er was delighted to see that she had agreed and immediately handed her the photo with a big smile. Then she affectionately took Yu Mengdi's arm. "But Mengdi, it's a promise, don't forget to help me out when the time comes."
……
dong dong dong-
A knock sounded, and a moment later, the door was pulled open from the inside.
Xu Jiujiu was still wearing the gorgeous evening gown. Her beautiful eyes looked at Huo Yuhao from top to bottom with a meaningful look, and there was a hint of teasing in her tone.
"I thought you weren't planning on coming tonight."
Huo Yuhao looked slightly embarrassed and didn't reply. He simply stepped into the room.
Before he arrived, he went to great lengths to get Meng Hongchen, who was still somewhat agitated, back to the rest area where the Sun Moon Empire team was located.
Only after she repeatedly assured him that she would not do anything out of line did Huo Yuhao manage to rush over.
After walking through the elegantly decorated living room, I stopped in front of a mahogany door and gently knocked on it.
"Please come in."
A calm and authoritative voice came from inside the door.
After a long while, she pushed open the door, turned to the side, and gestured for Huo Yuhao to enter.
After entering the room, Huo Yuhao composed himself and then gave a slight bow to the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa.
"Huo Yuhao of Shrek Academy greets Your Majesty."
Xu Jiawei was wearing a dark gold casual robe. His face resembled Xu Jiujiu's, but his eyes were much deeper.
He raised his hand in a gesture of support, a gentle smile on his face.
"No need for formalities, please have a seat."
As he spoke, he personally picked up the teapot on the coffee table and brewed a cup of hot tea for Huo Yuhao. After Huo Yuhao sat down opposite him, Xu Jiawei's eyes were filled with undisguised admiration, and he took the initiative to start a conversation.
"As expected of Shrek Academy's outstanding students, they are indeed dragons among men."
Previously, I had only heard Xu Jiujiu recount her views after making contact with him, but now, seeing him up close and with my own eyes, I truly felt the extraordinary nature of this young man, thanks to the instincts derived from his astrological talent brought about by his Star Crown Martial Soul.
It is a kind of restrained yet unfathomable potential.
He could almost be certain that, given the other party's potential, reaching the level of Super Douluo would be a piece of cake in the future, and he might even be able to touch the level of Limit Douluo.
Not to mention, there was a level nine Soul Master standing behind the other party.
If we could win over both of them to serve the Star Luo Empire, that would be a true blessing for the nation.
Thinking about it this way, Xu Jiawei's attitude became even more fervent.
"Your Majesty flatters me."
Looking at Huo Yuhao's composed demeanor, Xu Jiawei recalled what Xu Jiujiu had mentioned about the young woman from the Hongchen family who seemed to have fallen in love with Huo Yuhao at first sight.
He picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and began to ponder. However, he didn't show it on his face and slowly said, "I think I've already mentioned this to you before. Our Star Luo Royal Family is very sincere towards Master Lingbing."
We can hire him directly as the dean of the Soul Guidance Department at our Star Luo Royal Academy, and all the rare metals in our royal treasury can be given to him without limit. All he needs is to establish an effective Soul Guidance Master training system for our department.”
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly.
Ling Bing was merely an identity he used to represent others; he himself could never be the dean of the Soul Guidance Department at the Star Luo Royal Academy. Thus, he responded in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. My teacher has always been devoted to the research of soul tools and is probably not interested in taking on a position such as dean. However, I think he would not refuse normal business dealings."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Xu Jiawei's face showed a hint of regret. However, as the ruler of a country, he quickly composed himself and smoothly steered the conversation in another direction.
"Indeed, it cannot be forced. However, as the Emperor of Xingluo, I am often deeply worried about domestic affairs."
Xu Jiawei sighed, his eyes seemingly filled with worry.
"I heard that Dai Huabin, the second young master of the White Tiger Duke's mansion, sent someone to assassinate a disciple of an elder of the Sea God Pavilion. Now, the White Tiger Duke's eldest son, Dai Yueheng, is seriously injured and probably unable to participate in this Soul Master Competition."
As Dai Hao's elder brother, I am truly filled with anxiety, fearing that the Duke's Mansion, the cornerstone of our Star Luo Empire, will never recover. Yu Hao, what are your thoughts on this? Or perhaps, do you have any solutions?
Before Xianlin'er arrived, Xu Jiawei would not have been in such a hurry to discuss these national affairs with a child.
However, based on the information we have so far, Huo Yuhao's importance to Shrek Academy is probably far greater than anyone imagined.
The only thing he couldn't understand was why Dai Huabin and Dai Yueheng, the two sons of the White Tiger Duke, would both want to deal with him.
Do they all feel that their lives have been too smooth and they have to add some challenges for themselves?
Huo Yuhao picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, and looked at the worried look on Xu Jiawei's face, but did not rush to speak.
With Gu Yuena around, it would be an easy task for him to wipe the White Tiger Duke's Mansion off the face of the earth, and no one would even know who did it afterward.
But doing so only left behind a huge mess.
The silent disappearance of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion will inevitably have a direct impact on the Western Army Group, which has been firmly controlled by the Duke's Mansion.
If problems arise on the border, it could directly lead to turmoil within the Star Luo Empire. Coupled with the ever-watchful Sun Moon Empire, the resulting chain reaction would only implicate countless innocent people.
Huo Yuhao would never be so heartless as to be that insane.
If there is a simple and safe way to deal with the White Tiger Duke's mansion, he will naturally choose to do so.
The only thing we need to figure out now is what exactly is the attitude of this Star Luo Emperor.
Is he truly as worried about this as he claims, or does he have other ideas?
Having figured this out, Huo Yuhao put down his teacup. Instead of directly answering Xu Jiawei's question, he asked:
"I have heard that the current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire is seriously ill and has long lost the vigor of his youth. In foreign policy, he advocates peace, and even most of his people do not want war to break out."
Strangely, the people of the Sun Moon Empire seem to still harbor considerable hatred towards the Star Luo Empire; one could even say they consider the Star Luo Empire their primary hypothetical enemy.
