Chapter 116 Huo Yuhao is terrifyingly powerful!
"Did it...did it work?" Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong stared nervously at the ruins Zhao Wuji had smashed in front of them, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Meanwhile, Dai Mubai stood to the side, his scalp tingling and cold sweat pouring down his face from the scene before him.
He recalled his past experiences fighting Tang San and Huo Yuhao, and a chill ran down his spine.
"These two are absolutely terrifying!"
At this moment, he was even considering dropping out of school. What was he thinking before? He actually fought with each of those two freaks, or rather, he got beaten up by each of them.
However, unlike the reactions of others, Tang San did not believe that Huo Yuhao could completely defeat Zhao Wuji with just one move, Iron Mountain Lean.
Tang San knew that Huo Yuhao had been hiding his true strength. Even though he had used the Unpredictable Storm technique, Huo Yuhao had not used any attack skills.
Sure enough, not long after, Tang San felt a powerful fluctuation of soul power, followed by a deafening roar that pierced the sky.
This was Zhao Wuji's sixth soul skill—the Mighty Vajra Roar. This power swept over like a storm, making everyone present feel an indescribable sense of oppression.
The instant Zhao Wuji unleashed his incredibly powerful sixth soul skill, countless Blue Silver Grasses seemed to come alive, rapidly spreading from the ground around Tang San. These resilient vines wove a massive cage at an astonishing speed, tightly protecting Tang San within and forming a natural barrier.
However, all of this seemed to be in vain. Zhao Wuji's sixth soul skill was extremely powerful, and even without unleashing its full power, it was not something Tang San could easily withstand.
The power contained within that soul skill seemed capable of tearing everything apart; a terrifying shockwave erupted instantly, shattering the cage woven from Blue Silver Grass. Tang San's body was sent flying backward by the shockwave, finally landing heavily at the edge of the open space.
In that instant, the buildings and trees surrounding the open space were all affected by Zhao Wuji's sixth soul skill. Although Zhao Wuji had tried his best to control the range of his soul power, confining most of the energy within the open space, the energy that had escaped alone had already caused enormous damage.
The fragile glass windows shattered under the impact of the energy, and shards of glass fell to the ground like raindrops, making a crisp sound.
Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Dai Mubai, who were standing at the edge of the open space, were also startled by Zhao Wuji's sudden sixth soul skill. The four of them had been watching the duel between Tang San and Zhao Wuji with great tension, never expecting that Zhao Wuji's soul skill would be so powerful.
Xiao Wu, in particular, was filled with anxiety and worry the moment she saw Tang San being blasted away by the shockwave. Without any hesitation, she immediately rushed forward and quickly helped Tang San up as he was thrown back.
Xiao Wu's face was full of concern. She nervously checked Tang San's body until she was sure he hadn't been seriously injured before she felt relieved.
Although Tang San was a little dizzy from the shockwave, he still managed to stand up and gave Xiao Wu a reassuring smile, indicating that he was alright.
However, in the very center of this open space, Huo Yuhao withstood the fierce impact of Zhao Wuji's sixth soul skill head-on, yet remained completely unharmed.
This is simply unbelievable.
At this moment, if someone were to observe closely, they would notice that in Huo Yuhao's deep eyes, there were glimmers of mysterious light, like the brightest stars in the night sky.
Around him, a transparent light shield appeared and disappeared, as if it were a barrier from another world, isolating him from the disturbances of the outside world.
This light shield is the last skill that the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm Skull bestowed upon Huo Yuhao, and it is also Huo Yuhao's most powerful skill to date—Mirror of the Void.
The wonder of this skill lies in the fact that it can make Huo Yuhao immune to any attack below the level of God-level for three seconds.
However, such a powerful skill naturally comes with great limitations. The Void Mirror can only be used a maximum of three times a day.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao's status in Zhao Wuji's mind was beyond words.
Even though he was injured so badly, this kid directly withstood his fifth soul skill head-on, not only unharmed but also without even a speck of dust on his clothes.
A chill ran through Zhao Wuji's heart. What kind of monster was this? Huo Yuhao's existence was beyond his comprehension.
Zhao Wuji really didn't want to continue fighting Huo Yuhao anymore.
There's a saying that goes something like this: all of humanity's terrors actually stem from the unknown; because of the unknown, there is terror. Huo Yuhao's existence is like an unsolvable mystery, instilling in Zhao Wuji an unprecedented fear.
Just then, the incense stick finally burned out, and Zhao Wuji couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Zhao Wuji stood in the open space, looking around. Everywhere his eyes fell, there were the ruins of destroyed buildings. Broken glass and shattered bricks were scattered everywhere, silently testifying to the fierce battle that had just taken place.
Looking at the scene around him, Zhao Wuji couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Every brick and tile of these destroyed buildings was a shining gold soul coin! If Flander, that miser, saw this scene, he would probably be furious.
However, Zhao Wuji also felt a little comforted. After all, this year's monster students were exceptionally strong. With these little monsters attracting attention, Fran probably wouldn't pursue the matter of him damaging the building...?
Amidst his chaotic thoughts, Zhao Wuji decided to temporarily set aside these troubles.
He looked down at his body; several deep wounds were still bleeding. They were caused by Tang San's Blue Silver Grass poisonous thorns, and his skin was covered with dense scars.
What embarrassed him even more was that during his fight with Huo Yuhao, because of his short stature, Huo Yuhao's Iron Mountain Lean hit him directly in the face. That blow almost disfigured him, and now, the pain and humiliation intertwined, making Zhao Wuji eager to treat his injuries first.
Although Zhao Wuji admitted that he wasn't very good-looking, he still had his pride.
Zhao Wuji took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He gave Dai Mubai a look, and Dai Mubai immediately understood his intention, shouting loudly, "Oscar, Oscar, get over here right now! You've got a customer!"
Dai Mubai's voice, amplified by his soul power, resounded throughout the entire academy like a booming bell. His loud voice echoed across the open space, ensuring that Oscar, as long as he remained within the academy's grounds, would hear the summons.
"Where is the business? Where is the business?"
Sure enough, not long after, Oscar's voice came from afar, carrying a hint of urgency and excitement. His signature soft tone gave people a strange sense of intimacy.
Soon after, Oscar appeared in everyone's sight. He walked quickly, leaving his cart far behind. Clearly, he was in such a hurry to get here that he didn't even care about the cart.
Sweat streamed down Oscar's forehead as he ran, wiping it away with the back of his hand, but his excitement showed no signs of waning.
"Xiao Ao, come here, over here." Dai Mubai's voice rang out from the crowd, carrying an unquestionable command.
Upon hearing the call, Oscar immediately quickened his pace and ran towards Dai Mubai. "Boss Dai, did you call me?" he asked breathlessly.
Dai Mubai nodded, his tone revealing a hint of urgency: "Hurry up, get some sausages. They're all injured."
His gaze involuntarily turned to Tang San and Huo Yuhao.
After Oscar arrived, Dai Mubai felt his back straighten up without him even realizing it.
Although Huo Yuhao and Tang San are two evil forces who have just arrived, Dai Mubai is not fighting alone!
However, Oscar had no idea what Dai Mobai was thinking; he was simply thrilled at the thought of having business.
He immediately pulled a sausage from his pocket and handed it to Tang San, whose lips still had a trace of blood. "Five copper soul coins for one, and don't forget to pay me at the end, I'll give you a big sausage."
As Oscar spoke, he didn't forget to remind Tang San about the price of the sausages.
Under everyone's gaze, Oscar suddenly produced a large sausage in his hand. This sausage was not only enormous, but also had an enticing sheen and emitted a mouthwatering aroma.
Oscar proudly displayed his masterpiece.
However, upon hearing Oscar's words, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, and Xiao Wu's eyes immediately held a hint of embarrassment. The three girls were all twelve or thirteen years old, a time when they were beginning to understand certain things. Now, hearing Oscar's words, coupled with his slightly lewd demeanor, their eyes all involuntarily showed a trace of disdain.
They exchanged a glance, seemingly communicating their disgust at Oscar's behavior in silence.
Dai Mubai turned his gaze to Tang San, his words carrying a hint of ill intent: "Tang San, hurry up and eat. Oscar's giant sausage spell may be a bit strange, but its healing effect is unparalleled." He deliberately emphasized the word "spell".
Dai Mubai knew that anyone would feel extremely disgusted the first time they ate Oscar's sausage. Tang San had just given him a cold shoulder, so Dai Mubai naturally wanted to disgust Tang San in this way.
However, to Dai Mubai's surprise, he actually heard Oscar's strange incantation, but Tang San didn't mind at all and picked up the sausage to eat.
His movements were swift and decisive, just like eating a regular sausage.
After all, Tang San was already used to Oscar's sausages. How could Tang San not know how delicious Oscar's sausages were? Moreover, Tang San had not only eaten Oscar's Super Recovery Sausage, but also Oscar's Mushroom Sausage, Diamond Sausage, and Excitement Sausage. It can be said that apart from Oscar's own giant sausage, Tang San had eaten almost all other sausages.
Oscar watched as Tang San ate the sausage without hesitation, and his eyes lit up instantly. He was so excited that he almost cried.
How many years has it been? How many years? He seems to be the first person to eat his own sausage without batting an eye. That's a testament to his confidence in his own sausage. Oscar declares that from this day forward, Tang San is his best buddy.
However, in stark contrast to Oscar's excitement, Dai Mubai's eyes were filled with shock when he saw Tang San eat the sausage Oscar offered without batting an eye. He thought to himself, "He just ate it like that? Is that really appropriate?"
After all, wouldn't most people experience some kind of physical discomfort when trying Oscar's sausage for the first time? What's wrong with Tang San?
Could it be that Tang San has become accustomed to eating sausages made by others? Could it be that Tang San...? Various questions kept flooding Dai Mubai's mind. He tried to find answers from Tang San's expression, but Tang San's face remained elusive and calm.
Tang San, standing to the side, was naturally unaware of the turbulent thoughts swirling in Dai Mubai's mind; he was still recovering from his injuries.
Of course, if Tang San knew what Dai Mubai was thinking at this moment, Dai Mubai would definitely take a hit from the Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Gallbladder.
Xiao Wu, standing to the side, slightly opened her mouth, her eyes filled with surprise and curiosity as she watched Tang San eat the large sausage. She seemed to be pondering something as well.
However, seeing Tang San chewing on the sausage, Zhao Wuji was indeed somewhat displeased.
"Hey Oscar, come here, give me one sausage and one Chinese sausage."
Zhao Wuji's voice echoed in the air, his gaze fixed on Oscar, a hint of impatience in his eyes.
Seeing Tang San already enjoying the sausage, he couldn't help but feel anxious. This Oscar, what a clueless guy! Didn't he see how badly injured he was? In this situation, he didn't even give the first sausage to the most seriously wounded.
After hearing Zhao Wuji's instructions, Oscar blinked his captivating eyes, seemingly deep in thought. He looked at the unrecognizable man before him, his heart filled with doubt.
Who is this stranger? How did he end up at Shrek Academy, and why does he seem to know my name? Oscar couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he decided to ask him.
"Who are you? What are you doing at Shrek Academy? And you even know my name?" Oscar asked earnestly, his voice tinged with curiosity.
Upon hearing Oscar's question, Zhao Wuji was instantly enraged, feeling deeply insulted. He roared furiously, "You bastard, you want to spar with me? And who do you think I am? I'm Zhao Wuji!"
Zhao Wuji's face turned bright red, and he almost couldn't catch his breath, nearly spitting out blood.
