Chapter 7 Respecting Teachers Like Nagato, Infiltrating Shrek's Plan
Looking at the indifferent-looking boy in front of her, Beibei took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
"Yuhao".
Bei Bei asked tentatively, her eyes fixed on Huo Yuhao, "You're so young, yet you possess such amazing talent. Why did you come to the Star Dou Great Forest alone to hunt for spirit rings? Where are your masters?"
This is the most crucial issue.
Without a master or sect, he would be an unpolished gem, the hope for the revival of the Tang Sect.
Before Huo Yuhao could answer, a surge of soul power came from behind.
"Phew—finally done!"
Tang Ya stretched, and the light of her third spirit ring gradually faded.
Although she was absorbing the spirit ring, her senses were not completely shut down, and she vaguely heard the conversation between the two.
As soon as it ended, she was even more excited than Bei Bei. In a flash, she rushed to Huo Yuhao's side.
"Xiao Yuhao! Is what you just said true? You can control five elements?"
Those big eyes sparkled like stars, as if they had seen some rare treasure.
Huo Yuhao looked at the pretty face so close to his, but his heart was ice-cold.
Is this an attempt to recruit me?
Tang Sect... Shrek Academy...
Huo Yuhao's mind raced as he weighed the pros and cons.
The Tang God King hangs high in the divine realm. Just how far does his surveillance of this plane go?
Since that's the case, why not follow the example of Obito Uchiha?
Temporarily, I'll enter the game myself, lurking in the shadows.
As for being brainwashed?
Hmph, how could I possibly be assimilated by that hypocritical Shrek Glory?
Having figured this out, the coldness in Huo Yuhao's eyes instantly melted away.
He changed his expression without batting an eye, and a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Best Actor Mode" activated.
"Absolutely true."
Huo Yuhao nodded and formed a hand seal.
I also copied the principle behind those baboons' wind-spitting projectiles using my Sharingan.
Zi-mao-xu.
His chest swelled, and his chakra was rapidly compressed into his mouth.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Huo Yuhao opened his mouth and exhaled not an ordinary gust of wind, but several high-pressure wind balls as sharp as bullets.
The typhoon whistled as it cut through the air.
Click! Click!
A dozen meters away, several large trees, each as thick as a bowl, snapped in two, their cuts as smooth as a mirror.
This power is more than ten times stronger than the wind baboon's attack just now!
"It's not over yet."
Huo Yuhao changed the direction of his hands again.
巳－未－申－亥－午－寅.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
boom!
The enormous fireball illuminated the forest once more, and the scorching heat forced Tang Ya and Bei Bei to take two steps back.
Huo Yuhao did not continue demonstrating; the two of them were completely convinced.
Tang Ya opened her mouth wide enough to fit an egg.
Beibei's gaze was also blank. Although she had been mentally prepared, seeing someone switch attributes as easily as eating and drinking still shocked her worldview.
"It's really true?"
Tang Ya muttered to herself.
She grabbed Huo Yuhao's shoulders suddenly, her voice urgent: "Little Yuhao, where are your family? Which family are you from? Who is your teacher?"
Huo Yuhao lowered his eyelids slightly, concealing the fleeting cold glint in his eyes.
family?
My mother, Huo Yun'er, in this life is my only family.
As for the others... they are all on the kill list.
He raised his head, a perfectly measured look of loneliness and sorrow on his face.
"My family was called the 'Five Spirits Family,' and we were once a reclusive and powerful clan. But… we have perished."
"After my mother passed away, I was all alone in this world."
This statement, half true and half false, is most touching.
Upon hearing this, Tang Ya was first stunned, then her face lit up with ecstatic joy, and she blurted out:
"Really? That's wonderful!"
The air froze instantly.
Beibei's expression changed drastically. She quickly grabbed Tang Ya and whispered sharply, "Xiao Ya! How dare you speak like that!"
Huo Yuhao clenched his right hand tightly.
In that instant, a violent killing intent almost broke through the dam of reason.
Very good?
My mother died tragically, and I became homeless. In your eyes, this is "great"?
If I wanted to, at this distance, I could instantly possess a White Zetsu and unleash Wood Release: Hellfire.
Countless branches pierced her body.
But he ultimately held back.
He took a deep breath, replaying countless times in his mind the experience of Tang Ya's family being wiped out, before forcibly suppressing the bloodthirsty urge.
calm.
This woman was also a pitiful creature whose entire family was wiped out.
In a sense, she is also a joke.
For the sake of my revenge plan, I'll tolerate this offense.
At this moment, Tang Ya realized she had said the wrong thing, her pretty face flushed red, and she quickly waved her hands to explain:
"No, no, no! That's not what I meant! I didn't mean it on purpose..."
She looked at Huo Yuhao cautiously, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't react. She then tentatively asked:
"Xiao Yuhao, since you're all alone and have nowhere to go, why don't you... join our sect?"
Huo Yuhao sneered inwardly, but put on a slightly puzzled fake smile.
"Oh? What is your sect?"
Tang Ya immediately straightened her chest. Although the Tang Clan now only had a few members left, the pride ingrained in her bones remained.
"Tang Sect! Once the number one sect on the continent!"
She began to speak eloquently, just like in the original story, about the glory of Tang San's ancestor ten thousand years ago, the wonder of his hidden weapons, and his current desolation and vision for revival.
Huo Yuhao listened patiently, nodding in agreement when appropriate, but inwardly he was constantly mocking him.
After Tang Ya finished speaking, Huo Yuhao slowly opened his mouth, hitting the nail on the head:
"It does sound somewhat similar to my family. However..."
He looked at Tang Ya, his eyes revealing a pragmatism and shrewdness beyond his years.
"What will I gain if I join the Tang Clan?"
Tang Ya clearly hadn't expected this seemingly honest child to be so direct.
She paused for a moment, then looked at Beibei.
Beibei immediately replied, "Tang Clan's ultimate techniques! Mysterious Heaven Skill, Ghost Shadow Mystery, Purple Extreme Demon Eye, Crane Control and Dragon Capture, Mysterious Jade Hand."
These can all be taught to you. Especially the Mysterious Heaven Skill, which is balanced and harmonious, will definitely be of great benefit to your 'Elementalist' martial spirit.
At this point, Beibei paused, then threw out the biggest bait:
"Furthermore, the Tang Sect has one spot for admission to Shrek Academy without examination every year. Once you join, that spot is yours."
Huo Yuhao pretended to hesitate for a moment, his brows furrowing slightly, as if he was weighing his options.
Seeing this, Bei Bei pressed on, "Yuhao, you need to think this through. One person's strength is ultimately limited. Only by joining a sect and having Shrek Academy as your backer can your talent truly be realized."
There was a moment of silence.
Huo Yuhao raised his head, a "sincere" smile appearing on his face.
"Okay, I agree."
"yeah!"
Tang Ya jumped up excitedly, raising her hands sharply to the sky, "Fantastic! The Tang Clan finally has a third person! And a peerless genius at that!"
"Yuhao, you truly deserve to be someone who dares to enter the Star Dou Great Forest alone. This forest is indeed never short of geniuses."
Tang Ya also calmed down from her excitement. Now that she had joined the sect, she had to establish the rules.
Her smile faded, her expression turned serious, and she stared into Huo Yuhao's eyes:
"Yuhao, since you've decided to join the Tang Sect, there are some things I must say beforehand. Once you join the Tang Sect, you must never betray your sect or commit acts of deceiving your master and ancestors!"
Right now.
Huo Yuhao raised his right hand, his expression solemn and his eyes firm, as if he were making a sacred oath.
"Don't worry, Sect Leader."
"I, Huo Yuhao, hereby swear an oath."
He paused for a moment, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"I will respect my teachers and the way of the Dao, just like my clan's predecessor, the Five Elemental Douluo Changmen!"
Tang Ya and Bei Bei exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
Five Elemental Douluo? Nagato?
Although I've never heard of this title, since he's a Title Douluo, he must be a highly respected and revered peerless expert!
"Good! With such an ancestral example, we can rest assured!" Tang Ya nodded in satisfaction.
Only Huo Yuhao himself knows.
What exactly did that red-haired man named Nagato do? How did he personally kill his mentor, Jiraiya?
If Tang Ya and Bei Bei knew this story, their expressions would be priceless.
