A few days had passed since the Dragon Cloning Project began, although it hadn't hit many complications and was still going smoothly, the data states that it'll take around 2 more days for the cultivation to be completed.
So, Yuhao was finally able to meet with the only other human God they had on Douluo Continent.
"So, Mr. Ma Hongjun, what is it that you want to talk about?" Yuhao seated behind his desk asked Ma Hongjun who stood before him in his office, "I know that you have been having doubts but, I truly can't solve all your doubts as you wouldn't believe me." Yuhao who had gained enough power began to be more natural in his speech.
"I know.... I'm only here to ask you if I could go to Shrek." Ma Hongjun was eerily calm as he said it, "....Xiao Qi, I want to see her situation." Hongjun said directly as his eyes seemed to contain a raging inferno about to erupt, only needing one more catalyst.
"....Even if it means destroying all your previous bonds?"
"....Heh, if what you said is true, wouldn't he care even less about us, his so-called 'Brothers'?"
"Bei Bei is at Shrek currently, I'll contact him for you." Yuhao agreed quite calmly, "Although, how do you plan to observe her?" Yuhao was quite curious what Ma Hongjun had planned.
Yuhao had already expected this situation where Ma Hongjun would like to see the truth himself, so, he was quite prepared and had a plan himself, unless Ma Hongjun had other ideas which he'd respect.
"....I want to be a teacher."
"....Pardon?"
Yuhao's eyes widened quite a lot, what did he mean teacher?! Buddy, you're a God, no matter how trashy you originally were, the current you was OP in this place, not including how you forcibly brought up your God Position with talent alone (Single handedly brought up the weak almost Thrid Class Pheonix God Position to Peak Second Class comparable to a First Class God)
That's right, Yuhao considered Ma Hongjun to be insanely talented in the Domain of Fire, why? Although the Authority Hongjun had was locked to 10%, Yuhao had observed that the intensity was far higher, finding after observation that this man....His whole body was fire itself now, life serving as part of it allowing him to seem like a living fire, in essence although said to be 10%, his Authority of Fire was definitely over 40% despite being locked down and suppressed.
Ignoring even that, the true Pheonix God was more like a God of all Elements yet this one was merely Fire and Life, the Bloodline itself had degraded like this, so, if Yuhao took action, he genuinely had a chance to push the Bloodline of Pheonix God back to 5 Star.
So, Ma Hongjun had a very high potential in his book, not to mention his power far surpassing most on this continent.
Getting back to topic, "You want to be a Teacher?" Yuhao was truly confused by this thought process yet it made sense, what better way to be in contact with a student than as a teacher....why does that sound weird???
Ignoring his erratic thoughts, Yuhao looked at Ma Hongjun who nodded solemnly, "...I, even if what you said is true.... atleast... atleast I can protect what remains of her..."
"...." Yuhao was silent, as someone who knew loss and rage, although everyone's pain is different, he could to some extent sympathize....which is exactly why he knew, Ma Hongjun was preparing to go crazy, if everything was as Yuhao said, this Pheonix would truly become a madman, but a rational madman...one multiple times more dangerous than a normal madman.
"....A final snap, is it?" Yuhao smiled slightly, although it was a pitying smile, "I won't lie, I can manipulate reality, create souls and even revive others but.....once a Soul is torn, what remains even if alive will never be the old soul, essentially she's now two pieces and almost three, I could help heal the one that's almost cut into three because it's not torn yet."
"Unfortunately, the other half has already been split, meaning I can't help at all...."
Yuhao's words made Hongjun's pupils tremble, those red eyes becoming tinged with fire before it dissipated as he took a deep breath, "Although I knew it may have many problems, I still didn't expect this....three parts?" The calmness he was showing was unnerving even to Ma Hongjun himself.
"I still want to go to Shrek.." Ma Hongjun said as Yuhao nodded, "The next term begins in around two months, it was delayed after Bei Bei took over and began reformations and renovations, I'll arrange for you to become an Outer Courtyard Teacher... Although, you'll have to attend Teaching Classes held here."
Ma Hongjun was surprised as didn't know that even Teachers have to study to be Teachers? Quite confusing. He nodded as he agreed, "Good, Ya Ting is the one who'll be incharge of teaching you, you can go find her later."
Ya Ting, Rabbit Zodiac, Leader of the Spirit Beast Education Centre.
....Huh, Yuhao truly is more of a Spirit Beast God than actual Spirit Beasts, as expected, Hail the Beast God King Yuhao!
Ignoring that, "So, Ma Hongjun....are you willing to submit or...will you keep clinging onto that illusionary Brotherhood?"
"....I...I need more time.." Ma Hongjun closed his eyes as he said that but Yuhao smiled as he nodded.
"I understand." He nodded agreeing to Ma Hongjun while his eyes understood a different story.
[Ma Hongjun]
[Follower(???): He is Loyal to the Fantasy God Huo Yuhao, submitting to the Lord who might be able to revive his Wife and Only Love...]
That's right, Ma Hongjun had already subconsciously considered himself a follower of Yuhao, mainly because of the Resurrection Yuhao told him about alongside telling most truths directly to Ma Hongjun.
".... Although I am currently unable to revive those who died long ago, traversing time is possible as long as one reaches the realm above God King." Yuhao said truthfully, making Ma Hongjun look up directly, his eyes showing immense shock but Yuhao had already disappeared from his seat.
