Chapter 27 Five Elements Seal: Sealing Ma Xiaotao, Yan Shaozhe is truly committed
Looking at the proud young man standing on the stage, Yan Shaozhe in the spectator stands was so excited that his beard trembled slightly.
I've struck gold... This time I've really struck gold!
Such a large-scale water-attribute soul skill, with such water element fluctuations...
A sharp glint flashed in Yan Shaozhe's eyes.
This shows that his control over the water element has evolved to the point where he can interfere with or even suppress the evil fire in Xiao Tao's body!
As soon as the match ended, before Huo Yuhao and his two companions could even leave the arena, Yan Shaozhe's figure was already blocking their way.
The usually elusive and rarely seen dean was now wearing a kind and approachable smile.
"Yuhao, you did a good job."
"If you don't have anything else to do later, come to my office."
Huo Yuhao stopped and looked at the smiling tiger in front of him, his mind already perfectly clear.
They arrived as expected.
Seeing the power of my Water Release technique, you want me to be a fire extinguisher?
Huo Yuhao nodded respectfully on the surface, but inwardly he sneered:
Perfect timing, it's time to renew my cultivation resources.
Since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, don't blame me for squeezing some more pills out of you, you old bastard!
Yan Shaozhe's personal invitation had a completely different meaning when it reached the ears of the other students around him.
"My God, that's Dean Yan!"
"I was called away by the dean right after the match... Is he going to take me on as his personal disciple?!"
Even Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong, who were standing to the side, showed a hint of envy in their eyes.
Wang Dong watched Huo Yuhao's departing figure.
The boy stood tall and straight, his short indigo hair fluttering slightly in the wind, exuding an arrogant air of defiance.
For some reason, her mind kept replaying his invincible figure on the stage, where he formed hand seals and stirred up a storm.
Two rosy clouds quietly appeared on her cheeks.
Huo Yuhao...
Is this the path you've always been pursuing?
Only power can create such a magnificent sight... If it were you, perhaps you could truly achieve it.
...
Martial Spirit Department, Dean's Office.
Besides Yan Shaozhe sitting behind his desk, there was also a woman in red standing in the room.
She was tall and slender, her hot figure accentuated by a fiery red dress.
It was Ma Xiaotao.
Seeing Huo Yuhao enter, Yan Shaozhe didn't waste any words and went straight to the point:
"Yuhao, we're acquaintances now, so I won't beat around the bush."
"This is my disciple, Ma Xiaotao. She has been suffering from the evil fire caused by the mutation of her martial soul."
"I watched your match today, and your control over water element impressed me greatly. I'd like to know... whether your water attribute has reached a level where you can suppress the evil fire within her?"
Yan Shaozhe stared intently into Huo Yuhao's eyes, his tone solemn:
"If you can help Xiaotao suppress her evil fire, the academy will definitely reward you handsomely, no matter what resources you need!"
Ma Xiaotao, who was standing to the side, was also sizing up Huo Yuhao.
The boy in front of me has already grown to 1.75 meters tall.
Her once neat short hair is now gradually growing longer, and her blue eyes exude an arrogant and unruly aura.
That hairstyle... is quite unique.
And she's not bad looking either, which fits my aesthetic standards.
Ma Xiaotao silently made her assessment.
Immediately, she began to carefully sense Huo Yuhao's aura, trying to compare him with the mysterious person who stopped her from going berserk on Sea God Lake.
wrong.
That mysterious person used the ultimate ice power.
This junior student... although he has water element in his body, he also has multiple attributes such as fire, earth, wind, and thunder.
The five forces separate and combine, yet remain as one.
It seems that the person that day wasn't him.
That's true, he's only at the first level, how could he possibly knock me away in my berserk state?
Huo Yuhao did not agree immediately.
He feigned a troubled expression and frowned, saying:
"Dean Yan, this treatment requires a lot of energy and primordial soul power. Will this affect my own cultivation?"
Upon hearing that there was hope, Yan Shaozhe quickly waved his hand:
"You don't need to worry about that at all!"
"As long as you can solve Xiaotao's problem, the academy will compensate you tenfold for all the expenses incurred!"
As he spoke, he flipped his wrist and took out several exquisite jade bottles from his storage soul tool, arranging them in a row on the table.
"Mysterious Water Pill, Soul-Ascending Pill, Foundation-Strengthening and Vitality-Nourishing Powder... these are all yours."
Huo Yuhao glanced at the pills and nodded inwardly.
This old man is quite generous.
"In that case, I'll give it a try."
Huo Yuhao walked up to Ma Xiaotao, stretched out his right hand, and pressed it on her burning hot arm.
Buzz!
Mental detection is activated, probing in with chakra and soul power.
A surge of violent, insidious, and destructive fire-elemental energy instantly surged back up his arm.
A powerful, malevolent fire.
If it were simply water-based techniques, with my current chakra reserves and soul power, I'd probably be exhausted.
Moreover, that only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.
Huo Yuhao withdrew his hand, shook his head, and a perfectly measured expression of seriousness appeared on his face:
"no."
"The evil fire within Senior Sister's body is too strong. With my current water element strength, it would be very difficult to suppress it by force."
The light in Yan Shaozhe and Ma Xiaotao's eyes dimmed instantly.
"Is it not possible..." Ma Xiaotao gave a bitter smile, somewhat desperate.
Yan Shaozhe sighed, "Fine. Yuhao, since that's the case, this promise will still stand once your cultivation improves and your water element evolves..."
"but."
Just as the two were about to give up, Huo Yuhao changed the subject.
"Although forcibly suppressing it won't work, I can try to seal the evil fire using a 'self-created soul skill of elemental fusion' recorded in an ancient family book."
"Seal?" Yan Shaozhe's eyes gleamed again. "You mean, not to remove it, but to seal it off?"
"That's right."
Huo Yuhao explained, "The five elements are mutually generating and mutually restraining. By utilizing the cycle of the five elements, we can construct a perpetually regenerating sealing array to lock the evil fire in the dantian and prevent it from causing trouble."
"I'm willing to give it a try!" Ma Xiaotao said immediately, as if grasping at a straw.
"good."
Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate.
"Senior, I'm sorry to offend you."
He asked Ma Xiaotao to sit cross-legged, while he stood in front of her.
Taking a deep breath, Huo Yuhao began to rapidly form hand seals.
Consciousness sank into the Divine Power Space, communicating with the heretical demon statue.
South, north!
Through the connection of the Nine-Faced Supoha, two special energies specifically used for sealing flowed into his body along the contract.
Huo Yuhao extended his right hand, his five fingers spread open.
Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth.
Five colors of chakra danced at the tips of his five fingers, like five flickering will-o'-the-wisps.
"Ninja Technique·Five Elements Seal!"
Huo Yuhao's eyes sharpened, and his claw-shaped right hand, glowing with multicolored light, pressed heavily onto Ma Xiaotao's flat stomach.
"Hmm!"
Ma Xiaotao let out a muffled groan, her body trembling violently.
She felt a domineering force forcefully rush into her dantian. The originally rampant evil fire was suppressed by this power of the five elements, as if it had encountered a natural enemy.
Ha, mere wickedness.
Huo Yuhao looked at Ma Xiaotao's pained expression and sneered inwardly.
Back then, Hashirama Senju could suppress the Nine-Tails as easily as patting a dog's head.
Although I haven't reached that level yet, using the Five Elements Seal to suppress your evil fire is more than enough!
The five elements formed a complex black spell in his palm, which was deeply imprinted on Ma Xiaotao's skin before disappearing.
Sealing technique complete!
The oppressive heat dissipated instantly.
Ma Xiaotao suddenly opened her eyes and touched her lower abdomen in surprise.
"It's gone... that urge to destroy everything, it's really gone!"
"And it doesn't affect my soul power circulation at all!"
She stood up excitedly, her eyes filled with gratitude and a strange light as she looked at Huo Yuhao.
"Master! Junior Brother Huo succeeded!"
"Thank you, Junior Huo!"
Overwhelmed with excitement, Ma Xiaotao instinctively reached out, wanting to ruffle Huo Yuhao's hair like she would her adorable younger brother.
Swoosh.
Huo Yuhao tilted his head and shifted his feet, instantly dodging the hand.
Ma Xiaotao's hand froze in mid-air, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Huo Yuhao took two steps back, his eyes icy, cursing inwardly:
Ma Xiaotao, even if you really are a bastard, don't even think about touching my head!
No one in this world has the right to touch my head.
Yan Shaozhe strode over, carefully examined Ma Xiaotao's physical condition, and beamed with joy.
"Good! Good! Good!"
"Yuhao, you've given me a wonderful surprise!"
With a wave of his hand, he pushed all the pills on the table in front of Huo Yuhao.
"These are all yours!"
Huo Yuhao unceremoniously put the pill into his storage ring, but instead of leaving, he stood there with a slight frown.
"Dean Yan, there are some things I need to say upfront."
"Senior Sister Ma's evil fire is too violent and deeply rooted. With my current cultivation level, the Five Elements Seal I'm casting is not stable."
"We must reinforce the seal for her every month, otherwise the seal may be broken at any time as her cultivation level increases."
"Moreover..." Huo Yuhao paused, then revealed his true intentions, "In order to maintain the strength of the seal, I need to continuously enhance my various attribute soul powers. This requires a large amount of resources."
"Only in this way can we solve the problem once and for all."
Yan Shaozhe frowned slightly.
The kid's meaning was clear—he wanted more money.
Moreover, it involves long-term, continuous increases in payment.
Just as he was calculating the cost-effectiveness ratio in his mind and thinking about how to bargain,
Huo Yuhao suddenly sighed and dropped a bombshell:
"Actually, Vice Dean Fanyu spoke to me privately a few days ago."
"Oh?" Yan Shaozhe became alert. "What does he want with you?"
Huo Yuhao looked at Yan Shaozhe and repeated in a sincere tone:
"Vice Dean Fan Yu said... that you people in the Martial Soul Department are all just talking big and can't provide any substantial resources."
"He said that only their Soul Guidance Department was truly dedicated."
"What?!"
Yan Shaozhe almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
He slammed his hand on the table, his beard bristling with anger.
You rascal Fan Yu!
How dare you try to steal my man?
You want to compete with me in terms of dedication?
You want to compare resources with me?
You've gone too far!
"Yuhao! Don't listen to Fanyu's nonsense!"
Yan Shaozhe suddenly stood up, grabbed his collar with both hands, and pulled it up forcefully, zipping it up.
This action is very similar to Honoka pulling up her zipper to prove that she is truly committed.
"Those guys in the Soul Guidance Department who play with potato-shaped soul tools every day are talking complete nonsense!"
"We, the Spirit Masters, are truly dedicated!"
Yan Shaozhe stretched out one palm, fingers spread:
"Okay! As long as you agree to stay in the Martial Soul Department and reinforce Xiao Tao's seal every month."
"In addition to the normal resource allocation, I will give you five top-grade pills every month that can enhance your various attributes!"
"Five! Can those poor soul masters even afford that?!"
Huo Yuhao was overjoyed to see the excited Yan Shaozhe.
He remained outwardly calm, nodded, and showed an expression of being persuaded.
"Five? It seems Dean Yan is really committed."
"In that case, I shall accept your offer."
