Chapter 62: Mr. Cai, who is both naive and playful [asking for monthly tickets]
Elder Cai's praise was heartfelt.
She could easily see that the energy and spirit Huo Yuhao displayed earlier, with that flash of samsara tribulation light and that dominating punch, far surpassed that of his peers.
Even she, at her age, couldn't achieve the fusion of mental strength, soul power, and fighting spirit.
Perhaps only those two individuals in Shrek Academy could achieve such a feat at their age!
Landing his fist and retracting it, Huo Yuhao's chest heaved violently. The flash of samsara tribulation light and the dominating punch had consumed two-thirds of his soul power.
Now, even maintaining his own spirit fusion technique was impossible.
Of course, he knew Elder Cai's agreed upon Soul Master level was running low!
Huo Yuhao switched back to his Ultimate Ice spirit and swung his palms once more.
Imperial Palm, a severe coldness without snow!
Elder Cai immediately held out her hands to block, and the next moment, she felt an intense chill wash over her palms.
At the same time, Huo Yuhao's lips curled up slightly.
The icy mist that had been floating near Elder Cai suddenly condensed into a miniature dagger.
In a flash, it slashed towards Elder Cai's cheek.
A simplified version of the Emperor's Sword, unparalleled in its icy power!
Elder Cai was startled, thinking to himself,
"Oh no! This little fellow is so insidious!"
Although Elder Cai was usually stern, she always meant what she said. She had always used a similar level
of spirit power to Huo Yuhao. However, even if Elder Cai's mental strength and physical fitness were present, how could the same level of spirit power possibly withstand Huo Yuhao's enhanced ultimate ice?
As a result, the moment Elder Cai's palms touched Huo Yuhao's, her entire hands went numb.
This was one of the Snow Empress's three famous skills: Great Cold and No Snow.
The only way to break the Great Cold and Snowless Snow attack was to avoid being struck, otherwise he would be subjected to the full force of the Ultimate Ice.
Meanwhile, the miniature version of the Extreme Ice Wushuang was about to pierce Elder Cai's cheek.
Even though Elder Cai was already elderly, as a woman, her most important thing was undoubtedly her face!
Whenever her face was threatened, she would instinctively protect it!
However, her palms were already engulfed by Huo Yuhao's Ultimate Ice, rendering them completely useless.
The next moment, a crescent moon materialized behind Elder Cai.
Two silver rays shot out from the crescent, one piercing Elder Cai's body, the other towards the miniature version of the Extreme Ice Wushuang.
Simultaneously, nine spirit rings rose from Elder Cai's feet.
Eight black, one red, a Titled Douluo!
Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan all stood up in astonishment.
After all, the only Titled Douluo they had ever met was Tower Master Chu Feng, but Chu Feng had never demonstrated his prowess before them.
This was their first time truly facing the might of a Titled Douluo!
Terrifying indeed!
As the silver light pierced Elder Cai's body, a terrifying aura erupted from him, sending Huo Yuhao flying and crashing into the opposite wall.
The miniature version of Bing Ji Wushuang, struck by the silver light, silently melted away.
Elder Cai then closed her eyes and concentrated, using her soul power to force out the ultimate ice that Huo Yuhao had injected into her body.
Even a Titled Douluo like Elder Cai needed to exert all his might to expel the extreme cold of the Great Cold and Snowless.
Huo Yuhao stood up, bowed, and said, "Thank you, Elder Cai!"
Elder Cai's expression was extremely grim. After all, as a woman, having her face nearly slashed by Huo Yuhao's, she certainly wasn't in a good mood.
Elder Cai then flung his sleeves and headed out.
"All five of you, get full marks on the fourth test.
But remember to compensate me with a walking stick!"
Elder Cai was feeling rather downcast. She'd been forced by a Soul Master to unleash her Martial Soul, even using soul power far beyond the agreed upon Soul Master realm.
If word got out, she'd be laughed at by those old men for two and a half years!
After Elder Cai left, Tang Wulin and the others lifted Huo Yuhao up and tossed him into the air, shouting their praises over and over.
"Long live Boss Huo!"
"Boss Huo, you're the best!"
...
Chen Yi, looking at Huo Yuhao and the others with immense satisfaction, said,
"We've finally passed this most challenging test, Elder Cai!"
Then, Chen Yi prepared to take Huo Yuhao and the others to the next test site.
Gu Yuena stepped forward and handed Huo Yuhao her personal handkerchief.
Huo Yuhao coughed lightly, then used Gu Yuena's handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
What a fragrant handkerchief!
A faint scent of milk!
Gu Yuena naturally took Huo Yuhao's hand and poured a stream of extremely pure ice elemental power into Huo Yuhao's body.
As the extremely pure ice elemental power was poured into him, Huo Yuhao's complexion regained some color.
Huo Yuhao turned to look at Gu Yuena and whispered, "Thank you!"
Gu Yuena, with a hint of reproach in her eyes, whispered to Huo Yuhao,
"You men just love to show off! If you
don't get into Shrek Academy, the worst that can happen is that you can just go back to the Spirit Tower. Why work so hard?"
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and said, "I've had some new insights recently, so this is a good opportunity to practice!"
Gu Yuena pinched the inside of Huo Yuhao's forearm. "Do
n't take such risks next time!" Huo Yuhao remained silent.
The three moves Huo Yuhao had just exchanged with Elder Cai had made Shen Yi, Tang Wulin, and the others think Elder Cai was deliberately letting him win.
It was simply too incredible.
A Titled Douluo had been forced by a Soul Master like Huo Yuhao to unleash his Martial Spirit in battle, and Huo Yuhao had actually looked so relaxed!
But Huo Yuhao's three consecutive moves weren't as effortless as they appeared.
First, he unleashed his own Martial Spirit Fusion Technique—Reincarnation Tribulation Light. Second
, he used his full might to paralyze Elder Cai's palms with his Great Cold and Snowless Technique.
Then, he condensed the icy mist that had previously enveloped Elder Cai into a simplified version of Ice Extreme Unparalleled, slashing it across his face.
By exploiting a woman's love of beauty, he had successfully coerced Elder Cai into unleashing his Martial Spirit!
Just these three moves nearly drained his entire soul power, even causing some damage to his meridians!
But being able to successfully perform his own soul fusion technique today made the injuries worth it!
...
After leaving the room, Elder Cai's eyes flickered with a hint of cunning.
"No wonder that old man Zhuoshi was so eager to enroll Huo Yuhao and the others in the academy.
These students are once-in-a-century geniuses!
Hehe, if these promising youngsters were admitted to the Junior Class, Shrek Academy would have nine ways to bring them to their knees. Nine ways!"
Elder Cai hummed a song triumphantly before drifting away.
Meanwhile, no one, including Elder Cai, noticed that a white figure was watching them from the shadows.
The figure had graceful curves, a slightly transparent veil obscuring her stunning features. A smile curved her lips.
"I didn't expect you to come to me on your own initiative.
Were you looking for me?
And this little Cai, you're such a novice and a playful child!
How dare you bully Yuhao? You'll be in for it soon!"
