Rules are meant to be broken

Huo Yuhao is clearly a spiritual soul master with the ability to perform spiritual attacks.

Yet, his boxing and kicking skills are equally impressive.

In the end, he declared to the world that he could have ended the battle from the very beginning!

Just a single "look"—a spiritual attack, was enough to defeat Xu Sanshi!

"The deputy monitor is awesome!"

"Deputy monitor!"

All the students in Class 9, including their homeroom teacher Mu Jin, stood up and cheered for Huo Yuhao.

With such a deputy monitor, the class felt secure!

Ning Tian also stood up, her eyes reflecting a hint of complex emotion as she gazed at Huo Yuhao.

If Huo Yuhao could become her guardian, or even her partner, the criticism surrounding her female identity might vanish, right?

It wasn't as if the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect had never had female leaders before, but they were exceedingly rare and always faced criticism.

Even if the clansmen didn't voice it openly, everyone knew it in their hearts.

Ten thousand years ago, after Ning Rongrong took over the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, she failed to leave even a single descendant for the sect, reducing the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect to a mere name without substance.

The inherited martial soul of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect remained the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, not the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda.

When a woman inherits a martial soul, she can only have one partner. However, when a man inherits a martial soul...

Thinking of this, Ning Tian's gaze drifted to the fireworks in the distance, and she fell into deep thought once more.

She didn't mind this aspect. As the young master of a prominent family, the interests of the sect came first. As for monogamy... that wasn't the education she had received.

Besides, Hua Huo's talent was also remarkable. If she could have a sister like her...

At that moment, Hua Huo seemed to sense Ning Tian's gaze. She turned her head and looked at Ning Tian.

A glimmer of something peculiar flickered in her star-like eyes.

After glancing at Huo Yuhao on the stage and then back at Ning Tian, Hua Huo walked behind Ning Tian and whispered, "Sister, Little Black Hair is mine!"

Hearing this, Ning Tian's body stiffened, and her pupils contracted.

Impossible! How... how could this be?

"If you aren't happy enough, it's not impossible for me to become your sister!"

"After all, rules are meant to be broken~"

"Ahahahaha~"

Hua Huo gradually faded away, but Ning Tian felt as if thorns were pricking her back.

Her entire body was stiff, and she couldn't believe what had just happened.

"Young Master, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Feng, standing beside Ning Tian, asked with confusion.

She noticed that Ning Tian's expression looked somewhat strange.

"Didn't you hear anything just now?"

"Huh? Weren't we all just cheering for Huo Yuhao?"

Wu Feng asked, puzzled.

Ning Tian glanced at Hua Huo's retreating figure, then looked at Wu Feng, her body trembling slightly.

Is this... the power of a spiritual system expert?

No wonder, no wonder someone as powerful as Huo Yuhao is only the deputy monitor.

What does she mean by "If you aren't happy enough "?

At that moment, Ning Tian felt as if the world had stopped.

Only she and Hua Huo could move. In the entire fighting arena filled with thousands of people, no one noticed Hua Huo approaching her, and no one heard what Hua Huo had said.

This was something utterly bizarre, a power beyond her comprehension.

Could a spiritual soul master really achieve such a feat?

Or was this a unique ability belonging to Hua Huo?

Unable to make sense of it, Ning Tian simply shook her head and thought to herself, 'Time will reveal everything.'

"It's nothing. I must be imagining things."

Wu Feng looked at Ning Tian with a puzzled expression but eventually nodded and said nothing more.

'This deputy monitor is really impressive. He's almost as remarkable as the young master!'

Ning Tian: "…"

Fortunately, Ning Tian didn't know what Wu Feng was thinking, otherwise, she wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Wu Feng was still a bit confused. She was only speculating for now and hadn't confirmed anything.

On the stage, Huo Yuhao glanced at the referee, who seemed dazed and disoriented. He then said, "Teacher Referee, why are you standing there in a daze?"

"Announce the results of the match and hand over my spoils!"

Huo Yuhao extended his hand and pointed at the referee.

Hearing this, the referee snapped out of his trance and placed two porcelain bottles and a savings card worth 50,000 gold soul coins into Huo Yuhao's hands.

"Huo Yuhao, you are the most talented student I have ever encountered in all my years. No, you are the most talented among all of them."

"The second awakening of the main body at the gold level places a tremendous burden on the body. It requires proper cultivation and adjustment."

"Here are 100,000 gold soul coins. Use them to nourish yourself. Be sure not to damage your foundation. In the future, unless it's a critical moment, never use the power of awakening lightly!"

The referee pulled out a savings card from his pocket, handed it to Huo Yuhao, and spoke with sincere concern.

Even though he was just a referee and unaware of the discussions at the Sea God Pavilion meeting, Huo Yuhao's talent, combat awareness, and strength had left him deeply impressed!

Over the past few decades, he had witnessed countless geniuses, but none of them could even hold a candle to Huo Yuhao!

It would be a tremendous loss if such a genius were to damage his foundation!

This was the future of Shrek Academy, and potentially the pinnacle of the entire Douluo Continent in the years to come.

If they didn't invest in him now, it would be too late to regret it later!

At this moment, the entire fighting arena fell into silence.

The referee's actions made everyone realize that each person's path was unique, and people were fundamentally different!

This Soul Doulou-level referee was well-known in the Soul Fighting Arena for his strictness and impartiality.

Yet today, he had taken out 100,000 gold soul coins and handed them to a student, urging him to take care of himself and repeatedly warning him not to harm his foundation.

Such a thing had never happened before. No one had ever seen or even heard of such an occurrence!

"By the way, what is this 'second awakening of the main body at the gold level'? Does anyone know?"

Almost all the students watching the match were unfamiliar with the concept of the second awakening. Even some of the teachers present were equally puzzled.

On the stage, Huo Yuhao waved his hand at the referee and said, "I do know how to perform the second awakening of my main body at the gold level, but I didn't use it against Xu Sanshi. What I just displayed was merely an Imitation."

"Teacher Referee, you should keep this money for your retirement!"

With that, Huo Yuhao turned and walked off the stage.

The referee, the Shrek executives, and the students watching the match were all left in a daze.

They stared at Huo Yuhao's retreating figure, lost in deep thought.

"Damn, even I was fooled!"

"What an incredible Imitation!"

It wasn't that Huo Yuhao didn't know how to perform the second awakening at the gold level, he simply hadn't used it.

No wonder he showed no signs of exhaustion after the battle.

If even the second awakening was just a Imitation... then what was real?

How utterly desperate must Xu Sanshi have felt fighting against him!

Without unleashing the second awakening of his gold-level body, Huo Yuhao's physical strength alone was enough to overpower Xu Sanshi, who had awakened the Xuanwu bloodline.

Without any enhancement in power, his spiritual strength effortlessly defeated a defensive soul master…
