--- Chapter 235 ---

Shrek Academy.

"Phew, we're finally back!" A group of youths entered the gate into the Shrek Academy.

A young lady stretched her voluptuous body and said, "It took us three days to return. The adventure was wild, though."

"Senior Ma, please stop doing indecent things." Someone complained.

"We are still at the gate, you know. People are staring at us?"

Ma Xiaotao frowned and sent a death glare at the onlookers, frightening them. She was only stretching, and these hungry-looking men were already lusting over her.

"Scram!" Ma Xiaotao indifferently said. Even though Ma Xiaotao has lost her 'evil' attribute thanks to Huo Yuhao's cleansing, that doesn't mean the infamous fire demoness of the Shrek Academy has disappeared.

She placed her hands on her hips and thought, 'I'm not even revealing that much of a skin.'

'Well, if Huo Yuhao wants to see... I don't mind showing him.' Ma Xiaotao's thoughts wandered somewhere else. After all, Huo Yuhao has seen her bare body more than once.

"Tsk, save your bad thoughts for yourself, Senior Ma." Xiao Xiao clicked her tongue in displeasure.

Ma Xiaotao snapped from her imagination and blinked, "Ehem, I don't know what you're talking about."

"Yeah, sure..."

Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes and went to Huo Yuhao with a skip, hugging his left arm tightly between her developing bosom.

Bei Bei and others watched the antics between Ma Xiaotao and Xiao Xiao and sighed.

"I'm jealous..." Xu Sanshi mumbled.

"Of course, you're. Perv..." Jiang Nannan snorted at him.

Xu Sanshi realized his mistake and wanted to fix his words, "Ack, you heard it wrong, Nannan."

Of course, Jiang Nannan didn't trust him.

Tang Ya covered her mouth and giggled, "Hehe, Sanshi, you're in big trouble."

"You must coax Nannan, or she will get jealous."

'Hmph, who's jealous...' Jiang Nannan stomped her leg and swayed her head away, ignoring Xu Sanshi's pleading expression.

"Shishishi... Younger brother, when you become a fine man in the future, you shouldn't act like Sanshi." Tang Ya leaned and patted Wang Dong's shoulder.

Wang Dong's mouth twitched, "Yes, Sect Master."Even though Wang Dong is a girl, she couldn't expose her gender because it would be a wasteful cover.

Also, being a handsome boy is better than being a beautiful girl. She doesn't like to attract male attention too much.

Bei Bei clapped his hand and said, "Okay, stop bickering and rest for the next two days. We have been through a lot, so make sure to check if there is something wrong with your body and mental health first."

"Okay!" They responded.

"Also, Yuhao and Senior Ma." Bei Bei stared at the blue-haired young man.

"Can you come with me and report to Dean Yan about our journey?"

Huo Yuhao turned around and sighed, "Eh, That sounds like a pain in the ass."

"Don't say that. You know we wouldn't get out without Dean Yan's permission, right?" Bei Bei put on a troubled smile.

"Fine. I'll entertain that old man." Huo Yuhao helplessly returned.

Now that Huo Yuhao thought about it, Yan Shaoze and Azazel would be such a combo with each other, considering their nature. One somehow always gets scammed, and the latter likes to scam others.

Achoo!

At Shrek Academy's inner court, Yan Shaozhe sneezed and rubbed his nose indignantly. "Someone must be talking bad about me."

"The weather is nice. Yup, someone must be talking about me. I hope it's not that rascal Huo Yuhao..." His expression darkened slightly.

Yang Shaozhe wanted to puke blood when he remembered that ruthless rascal charged an extreme price for helping Ma Xiaotao. Because Ma Xiaotao is like his precious daughter, he agreed immediately.

Even then, his precious daughter was 'eventually' taken away by Huo Yuhao.

"Kuuh, just imagining his face is enough to annoy me." Yan Shaozhe mumbled to himself. "If only he's not from the Dragon Nest."

"I need a cup of coffee. Yes, a cup of coffee would help."

As Yan Shaoze made a cup of coffee for himself, someone knocked on his office door. "Hmm?" He glanced at the clock on the wall and frowned.

Yan Shaozhe tilted his head because there shouldn't be any visitors at this hour. He also has finished his statement about the Inner Court and Outer Court's curriculum change.

The door opened, revealing a blue-haired youth.

"Yo, old man. I am back!" Huo Yuhao made an entrance and waved his hand at him casually.

Yan Shaozhe's hand clenched as he threw the cup at Huo Yuhao, "It's you!"

"Woah, woah, calm down there." Huo Yuhao caught the cup and sipped the coffee in a carefree manner. "Oh, nice roast on this one..."

"..." Yan Shaozhe.

"Haha, calm down, master." Ma Xiaotao giggled and walked between the two of them. Even then, she leaned more on Huo Yuhao's side.

Yan Shaozhe's eyebrows furrowed, 'Aih, as they said, daughter left you as soon as they found a spouse.'

Bei Bei entered the room and said, "Dean, we are here to report about our journey."

Yan Shaozhe glared at Huo Yuhao and sat down, "Go on..."

Bei Bei nodded and narrated their whole journey in the Star Dou Forest.

When Yan Shaozhe learned they obtained a rare External-type Spirit Bone, he was this close to jumping and pouncing on Huo Yuhao.

Unfortunately for him, Huo Yuhao has bought the spirit bone with Dragon Nest's resources.

"Lucky bastard..." Yan Shaozhe cursed between his breaths.

"Did you say something, Dean?" Huo Yuhao leaned on the couch nearby.

"Nothing." Yan Shaoze waved his hand, swooshing the blue-haired rascal away. "Continue the report."

"Okay. After that, we searched for a spirit beast for Senior Ma and found a Three-Headed Giant Eagle. I believe the age is over 70,000 years old." Bei Bei continued.

"Well, it's all thanks to Huo Yuhao, who weakened it first."

"Senior Ma got her Sixth Spirit Ring, and we encountered Star Luo Empire's Princess, Xu Jiujiu, in a way and saved her from a horde of spirit beasts."

"Truthfully, we were also in grave danger because the spirit beasts in the Star Dou Forest suddenly went berserk. All because of a mighty dragon roar that shook my whole being..."

"Thanks to Huo Yuhao's quick decision, we were out of the forest as soon as possible. After sending the princess away, we hired a carriage and returned to the academy..."

Even though Bei Bei's report sounds like bootlicking, he didn't lie about a single thing.

"Huo Yuhao again..." Yan Shaozhe glanced at the blue-haired youth.

Huo Yuhao flashed a grin, "No need to thank me. I know that I'm amazing."

"Also, I help Senior Ma mutate her martial soul, free of charge."

"You wish. Do you think martial souls mutate as easily as you said?" Yan Shaoze didn't trust Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao shrugged as Ma Xiaotao and Bei Bei had an awkward looks on their faces.

Ma Xiaotao laughed and activated her martial soul, simultaneously triggering the Phenex Clan's bloodline in her body.

Her red hair gained more golden strands, swaying gently. Six spirit rings rose from the floor, each having a similar fiery bird pattern.

Besides the burning crimson-gold flame, there is also a faint sense of Wind Elements around her.

Yan Shaozhe's eyes widened in disbelief, "No way..."

"Yes, way." Huo Yuhao chuckled. "With this, Senior Ma could enter the Continental Tournament. She has completely recovered her cultivation and even become stronger than her former self."

"Truly rise from the ashes."

"You heard him, Master." Ma Xiaotao smiled.

"I want to join the tournament and represent Shrek Academy!"

"Please don't stop me."

Yan Shaozhe dejectedly dropped on his chair, "Very well."

"But you must pass a test against me first."

"We can't be sure your mutation is a good thing."

'Old man, you're looking down on the bloodline from one of 72 Devil Clans.' Huo Yuhao laughed inside as he could predict that Yan Shaozhe would suffer soon.
