Chapter 36: Which path should Tang Wulin take in the future? [Seeking monthly votes]
After the morning competition, Huo Yuhao returned to the hotel.
Meanwhile, Gu Yuena and the others also returned.
Of the five of them, Xu Xiaoyan, who hadn't signed up for the individual competition due to his limited offensive capabilities, had signed up for it.
"How did your competition go?" Huo Yuhao asked the group.
Gu Yuena smiled without comment. With her strength, she had naturally passed with ease.
Tang Wulin said excitedly,
"The opponent I faced had a dragon-type spirit, and I was able to restrain him. He didn't even have time to use his full strength before I defeated him."
Xie Xie said with some pride, "Thanks to my exceptional talent, my strength has improved rapidly recently. This kind of competition is child's play for me!
Of course, the pressure from Boss Huo and Teacher Wu was also very important!"
Xu Xiaoyan blinked, exposing Xie Xie's subtle thoughts, "I think you're mainly talking about your exceptional talent."
"Wait a few days, when you meet Boss Huo in the individual competition, I wonder if you can still smile."
Hearing this, Xie Xie immediately deflated.
"Why are you all siding with Boss Huo? Are you going to let us live?"
"It's because you are not handsome enough!
If you were as handsome as Boss Huo and Teacher Wu, I would support you!"
Xie Xie snorted, "Someone will understand my handsomeness in the future!"
Huo Yuhao smiled and nodded, "Congratulations everyone, then we can prepare for the team competition!"
"What else to prepare? Boss Huo, you can go alone in the team competition!" Xie Xie said calmly.
"Boss Huo, the way you released your soul today was absolutely stunning.
If we hadn't known in advance that you had a simulated soul skill, we would have thought you had a hundred thousand year old soul!
Today, the contestants and the audience all said you were a god descended from heaven.
Compared to you, the top talents of Chuanling Academy and Shrek Academy are nothing.
When the team competition comes later, our team will be able to overwhelm the opponents with just you!"
Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, "I will not play in the team competitions in the next few days.
The four of you will play together then."
Tang Wulin was stunned: "Huh? Boss Huo, why don't you take action?"
Why do I always feel that you are mysterious lately? Are you hiding something from us?
Huo Yuhao did not say it clearly: "Anyway, it's a good thing. After a while, you will definitely benefit from it!
Xie Xie laughed and said, "We believe in Boss Huo's character. As long as you say there are benefits, we will definitely benefit from it!"
"Don't worry, Boss Huo, we will take the team competitions in the next few days seriously.
"Even if you and Sister Na don't make a move, and Teacher Wu doesn't give us tactical guidance, the three of us are more than enough to win the first few rounds!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin and Xu Xiaoyan also revealed a look of affirmation.
In the afternoon, Wu Changkong led the team to Tianhai Stadium for the competition.
The team competition venue was much larger than the individual competition.
In this first team match, Huo Yuhao's team sent Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan.
Their opponent was from a small city under Tianhai City, and the overall strength of this team was not very strong.
Huo Yuhao stood in the audience, watching Tang Wulin and his team compete, feeling a surge of emotion.
Ever since Tang Wulin awakened the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, the Spirit Pagoda has always helped him gather the spiritual artifacts needed to release the seal.
Tang Wulin also practiced diligently, and now he has released two layers of the seal and possessed a Qi and Blood Spirit Ring.
In the original novel, Tang Wulin's character is quite good, with only two blemishes on his life.
One: his father is Tang Fozu.
Two: he fathered a creature even more despicable than Tang Fozu.
In the original novel, Tang Wulin endured countless hardships from childhood, ultimately resulting in the loss of his Golden Dragon King bloodline.
In this life, since Tang Wulin calls me "Brother Huo," I must help him find his way to the future.
Huo Yuhao's contract with Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena was primarily for the purpose of studying the Beast Taming Contract; he certainly wouldn't covet Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon King bloodline.
So, what path should Tang Wulin take in the future?
Golden Dragon King? Dragon God? Or something else entirely?
However, any of these presupposes the need to force out the consciousness left within Tang Wulin by Tang Fozu.
Huo Yuhao, now, naturally has no fear of being exposed to Tang Fozu's consciousness.
After all, to conserve his divine energy, Tang Buddha's consciousness isn't always awake.
Even after Tang Wulin obtains the Vast Sea Universe Shield in the original novel, Tang Buddha only has three chances to intervene.
However, these three opportunities won't be wasted on Huo Yuhao unless absolutely necessary.
The day Tang Buddha's consciousness senses Huo Yuhao, his expression will surely be a remarkable change.
Huo Yuhao, who was clearly dead ten thousand years ago, has reappeared?
You've been lying dormant for ten thousand years, surely intent on seizing the Tang family's empire. You've already met your doom!
...
Just as Huo Yuhao was lost in thought, a figure approached him and Gu Yuena.
"Miss Gu Yuena, I was wondering why I haven't seen you in the past six months. So you've come all the way to this remote East Sea Academy!"
Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena turned to see the person who had taunted Shrek Academy the other day, Qiangu Zhuojue.
Gu Yuena's eyes were cold, and she didn't reply.
Qiangu Zhuojue, frustrated, touched his nose awkwardly and turned to look at Huo Yuhao.
"Your spirit skills are interesting, but fake is still fake!
I won't let you steal my limelight!
I've also signed up for the competition, and I hope your true strength will satisfy me when we meet!"
"Remember my name, Qiangu Zhuojue!"
Huo Yuhao scratched his ear and said, "Where did this bug come from? It's so noisy!"
"You—" Qiangu Zhuojue's eyes were filled with anger.
But he managed to control his emotions. He was a member of the Qiangu family, and he had to pay attention to his image when he was out there. He must not bring shame to the family.
Finally, Qiangu Zhuojue said, "We'll see!" and then left.
Returning to his team, Qiangu Zhuojue snorted, "You're just being rude!"
Qiangu Zhuojue had an older brother, three years his senior, who had always overshadowed him.
While his talent was no less than his brother's, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't close the three-year gap in a short period of time.
He had originally hoped to use the Tianhai Alliance competition to defeat Shrek Academy and showcase who was the most promising talent within the clan.
Unexpectedly, Huo Yuhao suddenly appeared, his simulated spirit skills captivating the audience and
stealing the spotlight that had belonged to Qiangu Zhuojue.
This was difficult for the always proud Qiangu Zhuojue to accept, so he approached Huo Yuhao.
He also discovered that the aloof Gu Yuena, whom he had always admired, was actually quite close to Huo Yuhao.
Vanity and jealousy fueled Qiangu Zhuojue's hatred for Huo Yuhao!
"Huo Yuhao, just wait!"
