Chapter 29 What is the strongest? The difference is immediately apparent!
After dealing with the attackers, the newly summoned clone, along with the previous participating clones, did not stop.
The two stood side by side, simultaneously forming hand seals.
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
Whoosh—!!!
A violent hurricane spewed from the mouth of the new clone, precisely merging into the stalemate-tying fireball.
The wind fanned the flames!
The already enormous fireball instantly tripled in size with the aid of Wind Release!
The color also changed from orange-red to a breathtaking golden-red!
"this..."
The madness in Wu Feng's eyes instantly turned into despair.
Faced with this devastating power, her Dragon's Wrath seemed so insignificant.
Rumble—!!
The sea of fire instantly engulfed Wu Feng, and even Ning Tian, who was maintaining his amplification at the rear, was not spared.
"ah--!!"
Two screams rang out.
Wu Feng and Ning Tian were like two kites with broken strings, blasted off the stage by the firestorm, their bodies charred black and emitting blue smoke.
Nammon Yoon-ah, who was buried in the soil with only her head sticking out, stared blankly at the scene, too frightened to speak.
The flames died down.
The three Huo Yuhaos stood on the arena, their expressions equally indifferent.
The clone in the middle slowly withdrew its hand, looked at its opponent in the mess below the stage, and said calmly:
What defines the strongest?
The difference in quality is immediately apparent.
The referee swallowed hard, watching this bizarre scene, and announced in a trembling voice:
"The outcome is decided; Huo Yuhao's team has won."
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao stepped forward, looking at the three Huo Yuhaos, their minds filled with questions.
"Hey, Huo Yuhao, this..."
Before Wang Dong could finish asking...
Puff. Puff. Puff.
A slight sound came from inside.
Unlike his shadow clones, the three Huo Yuhaos did not disappear into smoke.
Instead, his body withered and deformed rapidly, eventually turning into several lifeless, dead trees that fell onto the arena.
The entire room fell silent.
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao exchanged a glance, both seeing deep disbelief and... a hint of fear in each other's eyes.
"I'm not seeing things, am I...? That's wood?" Wang Dong's voice was hoarse.
"So..." Xiao Xiao pointed at the dead tree on the ground and stammered, "These past few days, the one rampaging on the field... has been Huo Yuhao's clone all along?"
"Then what about his true form?"
"Could it be... that he's still cultivating?!"
The audience.
Wu Feng, who had just been revived by a healing soul master and was still coughing up blood, happened to hear these two sentences.
"Wh...what?!"
"You mean... that Huo Yuhao who beat me up like a dog just now... was just an avatar?!"
puff!
He was so angry that he lost his temper.
The red dragon soul master coughed up another mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he completely fainted from anger.
...
The awakened Wu Feng stumbled and found Yan Shaozhe, who was about to leave.
"Dean!"
Wu Feng's voice was hoarse, his eyes filled with resentment and bitterness:
"I want to report this! Huo Yuhao violated the rules!"
"These past few days... he hasn't participated in the competition himself at all! He's been humiliating us with that damn wooden clone!"
"Shouldn't the freshman assessment be taken by the student himself? He's cheating! He's showing contempt for the college rules!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe abruptly stopped in his tracks.
He turned around, looked at the two disheveled freshmen in front of him, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"What did you say?"
"You mean... just now on the arena, you, a powerful offensive Soul Master, along with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda for support, were knocked off the stage together..."
"Just a clone of Huo Yuhao?"
Wu Feng gritted his teeth, though he didn't want to admit it, it was indeed the truth: "Yes! The last clone turned into wood!"
Yan Shaozhe was stunned.
A clone?
Even as a mere clone, it can utilize self-created soul skills with multiple attributes, and can even instantly kill a powerful combination amplified by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda when fighting three opponents alone.
What about his true form?
Yan Shaozhe's breathing became rapid, and an uncontrollable surge of joy welled up deep in his eyes.
If the clone is this strong, how powerful must the original body be?
Such terrifying talent, such astonishing control over the elements...
This time, there is really hope that Xiao Tao's problem of excessive internal heat can be completely resolved!
Thinking of this, the trace of sympathy that Yan Shaozhe had shown when looking at Wu Feng vanished instantly, replaced by indifference.
"I see."
Yan Shaozhe put his hands behind his back, his expression quickly returning to seriousness and impartiality:
"The academy will conduct a thorough investigation into whether Huo Yuhao violated any regulations."
"You should go back and recover first."
"Dean!" Wu Feng wanted to say something more.
"Alright! I am the dean." Yan Shaozhe frowned, releasing an invisible pressure. "I will uphold the academy's rules. I don't need you to teach me how to do things."
After saying that, he turned and left, his steps light and quick, as if he had found some rare treasure.
As for how to solve it?
Of course, nothing came of it.
In this world where the strong are respected, geniuses have special privileges.
But for a monster like Huo Yuhao, who can save his disciple's life, privileges are limitless.
...
Training ground.
Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged, surrounded by faint fluctuations of chakra and soul power.
As the last trace of medicinal power was refined, the soul power within his body surged through his meridians like an overflowing lake.
Level 20.
Although he did not obtain a second spirit ring and could not break through the level cap, the medicinal power of the Strengthening and Nourishing Pill had already accumulated in his body.
Once I hunt down a soul beast, this accumulated soul power will erupt without reservation, helping me directly reach a higher realm.
At this moment, the two shadow clones were wearing those heavy weights and engaging in a tedious but intense physical combat sparring session.
The other shadow clones were scattered around.
Some were practicing Water Escape Technique, while others were trying to comprehend Earth Escape Technique.
Sudden.
"Pop".
Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow slightly.
He sensed that the wooden clone that had been sent to participate in the competition had automatically dissipated due to exhaustion of chakra.
A flood of memories belonging to the clone rushed into his mind.
The provocation of the witch wind, the amplification of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and the final wind and fire combination ninjutsu kill.
Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes, a cold, disdainful smile curling at the corner of his lips.
"cut."
"They really are a bunch of small fry."
"It's right not to waste time on this kind of childish game."
He had absolutely no interest in these new students.
If there's anyone in this freshman assessment that can pique my interest even slightly...
Huo Yuhao's gaze fell on a point in the void, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
Dai Huabin.
The direct culprit who killed his mother, Huo Yun'er.
That beast in the Duke's mansion, relying on his status as the eldest son, bullied him and his mother in every way, and didn't even want to leave them a way out.
Dai Huabin's name had already been engraved at the very top of Huo Yuhao's kill list.
I remember the unlock condition for the tiger skin mask template in the system was to guide two key figures to different fates.
Tang Ya was the first.
So, this second one...
A cruel plan surfaced in Huo Yuhao's mind.
Simply killing him is too easy for him.
Hehe, Dai Huabin, you just wait.
I will crush you like I crush a reptile.
Then, in your endless despair, you'll regret ever being born!
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, suppressed the killing intent in his heart, and refocused his attention on his cultivation.
He slowly raised his right hand.
At this moment, a dark Chinese character faintly appeared in the center of his palm.
That was the character "座" (zuò).
Huo Yuhao looked at the word in his palm and felt the suppression law contained within it, which was specifically designed to target tailed beasts and giant creatures.
This is the technique that Hashirama Senju used to make Kurama (the Nine-Tails) instantly obedient, like patting a dog's head—Kouan Ruyan Chui Shou!
The Netherworld White Tiger, right?
The pride of the Dai family, huh?
Huo Yuhao clenched his right hand, the character "座" (seat) disappearing from his palm.
They encountered this Wood Release secret technique that could even utterly crush the Nine-Tails...
Dai Huabin, I look forward to your performance.
