Chapter 30: The Disheartened Dai Yaoheng
At this moment, a woman dressed in a purple long gown, exuding an aura of cold elegance, appeared beside Dai Yaoheng. This woman was Zhang Lexuan.
"Senior Sister, what has happened to Ma Xiaotao?"
Dai Yaoheng greeted Zhang Lexuan with a respectful nod and inquired about the situation.
"Old Mu obtained an Ultimate Fire Martial Soul from the Star Auction Pavilion and allowed Ma Xiaotao to absorb it. Xiaotao turned misfortune into fortune and resolved the evil fire in her body, allowing her Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul to evolve into the true Ultimate Fire Martial Soul."
"That means, now Ma Xiaotao possesses twin martial souls, both of which are Ultimate Fire Martial Souls."
Zhang Lexuan briefly explained what had happened.
"This..."
Dai Yaoheng was deeply shocked upon hearing this news. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
No wonder he had felt such a strong pressure emanating from Ma Xiaotao earlier. He himself had felt the intense weight of it.
This had never happened before.
At first, he had thought it was just due to Ma Xiaotao's soul power breakthrough.
But it turned out that it was all due to Ma Xiaotao's martial soul evolving into the Ultimate Fire Martial Soul.
The news about the Star Auction Pavilion auctioning the Ultimate Fire Martial Soul also stirred up waves in his heart.
He had not expected that while he was in seclusion, such a mysterious force had appeared on the Douluo Continent.
"You don't need to worry. The reason Sea God Pavilion decided to allow Ma Xiaotao to absorb this Ultimate Fire Martial Soul was, on one hand, to solve the evil fire problem in her body, and on the other hand, to ensure that this martial soul's power is maximized as much as possible."
"Ma Xiaotao's talent and potential are well recognized. She is the most suitable person for this martial soul."
Zhang Lexuan noticed Dai Yaoheng's concerns and immediately spoke to comfort him, her eyes filled with a gentle reassurance.
"Senior Sister, I understand. This Ultimate Fire Martial Soul, both in terms of talent compatibility and adaptability, is undoubtedly the perfect fit for Ma Xiaotao in Shrek Academy."
Dai Yaoheng lowered his head slightly, shaking it helplessly, a bitter smile appearing on his face.
He knew very well that the decision made by Elder Mu and the senior members of Sea God Pavilion had deep considerations and would undoubtedly not be wrong.
Even so, seeing Ma Xiaotao, who had once competed alongside him, now gain such immense power, a surge of envy still rose uncontrollably in his heart.
It was a longing and yearning for immense power.
"The Star Auction Pavilion holds auctions every month. Perhaps in the future, you'll come across something there that could be very beneficial to you, something you really need."
Zhang Lexuan's voice was soft and soothing as she spoke, her eyes still reflecting the shock from the earlier auction.
On the Douluo Continent, auctions for Ultimate Martial Souls like this were so rare that they left an unforgettable impression.
"Thank you, Senior Sister, for clearing my doubts."
Dai Yaoheng nodded slightly in response, his mind still focused. He turned and walked slowly in the direction of the distance, his back carrying a sense of determination.
At that moment, he had secretly made up his mind to inquire thoroughly about the Star Auction Pavilion.
If everything was truly as he had heard, it would undoubtedly be a rare opportunity for him.
He must seize it tightly and not let himself fall too far behind Ma Xiaotao.
Elder Mu and the others looked on with deep eyes, carefully observing the residual aura of the Yan Huang Tianlong Martial Soul on Ma Xiaotao, nodding slightly, but said nothing further.
After a while, Elder Mu spoke, his voice calm and powerful: "Xiaotao, go back and consolidate your soul power. Always pay attention to this martial soul, and if anything unusual happens, report it to Sea God Pavilion immediately."
Ma Xiaotao respectfully responded and bowed, then turned and walked away, her steps light as she headed toward her room.
Not long after Ma Xiaotao returned to her room, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong hurriedly arrived at the Sea God Island inner courtyard.
Huo Yuhao walked quickly, heading straight to Ma Xiaotao's room.
The door was open, and as soon as Huo Yuhao entered, he immediately saw Ma Xiaotao sitting inside.
"Sister Xiaotao, congratulations on successfully resolving the evil fire within you. Your strength has truly grown!"
Huo Yuhao's voice was filled with sincere joy.
Upon seeing Ma Xiaotao, he keenly noticed the huge change in her aura.
The evil black fire that had once surrounded her body, which had been laced with traces of malevolent energy, had completely disappeared without a trace.
In its place was a pure and powerful energy, like a phoenix reborn from the flames, radiating a stunning brilliance.
"Yuhao, you've come. I've always remembered the favor you did by helping me suppress the evil fire in my body. I will never forget that kindness."
Ma Xiaotao greeted Huo Yuhao with a bright and warm smile, her face radiating joy.
Now, the evil fire that had tormented her for so long was finally gone, and she felt as if she had been reborn, her body feeling lighter than ever, her heart filled with indescribable happiness.
"It's just a small matter, Sister Xiaotao, don't mention it."
"But I am truly curious, could I see your powerful Yan Huang Tianlong Martial Soul?"
Huo Yuhao's eyes instantly lit up, filled with excitement and curiosity.
He expressed his desire without holding back.
Wang Dong, standing by, also looked at Ma Xiaotao with eager eyes, his gaze fixed on her, impatient to witness the awe-inspiring power of the Ultimate Fire Martial Soul.
"Of course, no problem."
Ma Xiaotao agreed readily.
The next moment, she raised her left hand and slowly opened it, palm facing upward.
In an instant, a powerful and scorching force of Ultimate Fire burst forth, flooding the room with a surge of energy, and the temperature rapidly increased.
A gigantic dragon, glowing with a dazzling red light, began to swirl in the air.
The dragon's body was immense, its scales gleaming like rubies, and it opened its enormous mouth.
It let out a low growl, releasing a terrifying aura.
Feeling the intense heat and power, Huo Yuhao's expression shifted slightly. He quickly activated his Extreme Ice power.
The cold energy circulated around his body, forming an invisible shield, which barely managed to resist the searing heat radiating from the Yan Huang Tianlong Martial Soul.
Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao was startled, realizing she hadn't properly controlled the aura of her martial soul. She immediately withdrew some of her power.
The dragon's form gradually shrank, coiling within her palm.
"This Yan Huang Tianlong Martial Soul is truly powerful."
Huo Yuhao marveled, deeply feeling the terrifying strength contained within this martial soul.
In his understanding, this dragon-type martial soul was by far the most powerful dragon soul he had encountered on the Douluo Continent.
When he thought about how this martial soul's attribute was Ultimate Fire, its strength seemed only natural.
After all, Ultimate Martial Souls always possessed terrifying power beyond reason.
"Yuhao, your perception is correct. This Yan Huang Tianlong Martial Soul is indeed superior to my evolved Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul."
Ma Xiaotao nodded solemnly and replied earnestly.
As the owner of both martial souls, she could clearly sense the difference between them.
Even though her Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul had evolved into the Ultimate Fire Martial Soul, in terms of level and power, it was still slightly inferior to the Yan Huang Tianlong Martial Soul.
