Huo Yuhao calmly walked off the Soul Dueling Arena. Before leaving, he heroically shouted, "I am from Shrek! From Tang Sect!"
With a single sentence, he elevated the prestige of Shrek and Tang Sect to their peak. The Shrek crowd walked out of the Soul Dueling Arena with high spirits, unaware that some people were already planning to cause them trouble.
Everyone returned to the hotel. Zhou Yi was about to tell everyone to rest when they were blocked by two men. She was momentarily stunned and looked up at them. They were two men with ordinary appearances but very peculiar physiques. One had an extraordinarily thick right arm, while the other was small and thin with a very large head, like a big-headed doll.
Zhou Yi's heart slightly tightened. She said in a deep voice, "Can you two please move aside?"
The man with the thick arm said, "You can go. This little fellow needs to stay. We want to talk to him." His voice was hoarse, and he exuded a terrifying, intimidating aura. The direction he pointed was exactly where Huo Yuhao was.
Huo Yuhao was also startled. "I don't know you two."
The other big-headed man looked at Huo Yuhao and smiled faintly, "We didn't know each other before, but we do now, don't we?"
"We have no ill intentions; we just want to chat with you. If you don't want those around you to be harmed, then be proactive and come with us."
The big-headed man's aura pressed down, actually rendering Zhou Yi immobile. Even Ma Xiaotao felt a considerable amount of pressure. Everyone's faces showed a hint of terror. Although Zhou Yi's strength was not considered too strong among the teachers, she was still at the Soul Emperor level. As for Ma Xiaotao, she had already reached the Soul Sage level, and she was even an Ultimate Fire Soul Sage. Even such individuals felt apprehension, indicating that the two men's strength was definitely extraordinary.
Yuwen Tuo smiled faintly. Finally, they arrived earlier than expected. It wasn't in vain that he sent Xiao Xiao to deliver Huo Yuhao's information to them beforehand. The strength of these two was at least at the Soul Douluo level. Originally, ordinary Soul Douluo wouldn't be a match for Ma Xiaotao.
But Soul Douluo of the Body Martial Soul were different. As masters of the Body Sect, their martial souls had undergone a second awakening, making their combat power a notch stronger than conventional Soul Douluo.
"Teacher?" Huo Yuhao hesitated, looking at Zhou Yi. He certainly wouldn't dare to make a decision on his own in this matter.
"Let's go. This is Star Luo City. Since they want to talk to you, I imagine they don't have any ill intentions," Zhou Yi said.
"As expected of a teacher. Please come with me, everyone," the big-headed man turned and left, leading the group to a luxurious room. This room was far more luxurious than what the Star Luo Empire provided for the academies. It should be the hotel's top-tier royal suite, not something ordinary people could afford.
In the room, a man and a woman had already brewed tea. Seeing the group arrive, the woman stood up and politely greeted them, "Everyone from Shrek Academy, congratulations on your first victory. My name is Vina, and this is my friend Long Aotian. These two are Mr. Langya and Mr. Yutao respectively. We, along with these two gentlemen, are all from the Body Sect. Please take a seat, everyone, and let's discuss further."
"Body Sect!" Hearing this name, Zhou Yi, Dai Yaohang, and others who were more knowledgeable, were all extremely shocked. This was one of the three strongest forces on the continent, alongside Shrek's Sea God Pavilion and the Sun Moon Empire's Mingde Hall. The number of Titled Douluo within the sect exceeded ten.
In the world of Soul Masters, although the Body Sect rarely appeared, they were absolutely a renowned existence. Among the major forces in the Soul Master world, in terms of evil, there was no doubt that Evil Soul Masters ranked first. However, there was one force whose oddity and power could rival the evil of Evil Soul Masters, and that was the Body Sect.
Fortunately, the Body Sect was merely eccentric, not evil, so they weren't universally reviled like Evil Soul Masters.
"What do you need me for? I believe this is my first time meeting you all," Huo Yuhao asked curiously.
"Our Body Sect has never liked beating around the bush, so I'll be direct. Huo Yuhao, I am here on behalf of our Sect Master to bring you back to the sect," Long Aotian said.
"Return to the sect?" Huo Yuhao was startled. He had never joined any Body Sect before!
Long Aotian nodded and said, "Yes, return to the Body Sect. The Body Sect is the home of all Soul Masters who possess a Body Martial Soul. Since you are a Soul Master with an eye-based Martial Soul, you are naturally a part of the Body Sect."
"Huo Yuhao, come with us. Joining the Body Sect will greatly benefit your Spirit Eye Martial Soul cultivation. In terms of research into Body Martial Souls, we are far superior to Shrek Academy."
Without a trace of hesitation, Huo Yuhao shook his head with unusual firmness: "Sirs, I am very grateful for your kindness, but I am a student of Shrek Academy, a part of Shrek. Furthermore, I already have my own sect, the Tang Sect. I have never thought of betraying the Tang Sect."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, his senior brother Beibei smiled contentedly, feeling that he and Xiao Ya hadn't misjudged him back then.
Long Aotian smiled haughtily. "Shrek Academy, the number one academy in the world? However, it doesn't seem to be all that great. Otherwise, they wouldn't send a child of your age to participate in the competition. And as for the mere Tang Sect, it's just an old-fashioned, outdated sect."
"Our Body Sect is the one most familiar with Body Martial Souls, and we can give you the best guidance. Come with us, and within twenty years, you will be a generation's prodigy who shakes the continent. Don't you want your eye Martial Soul to undergo a second awakening? Only a Body Martial Soul that has undergone a second awakening can unleash its true power. Come back with us, for your own future!"
To openly poach a student in front of Shrek Academy's teachers, perhaps only the Body Sect could do such a thing.
Zhou Yi, however, was furious but dared not speak. Long Aotian and Vina, the two young people, were easy to deal with, but the strength of the two big men opposite them was simply beyond his ability to contend with.
Huo Yuhao still shook his head. "No, Shrek Academy is my home. The academy gave me the warmth of a home, so I will absolutely not join the Body Sect. I apologize, gentlemen, but that's all for today."
As he spoke, he stood up and turned to walk towards the door.
"You say no, and it's no?" The thick-armed Yutao suddenly stood up, his thick, long arm instantly gripping Huo Yuhao's shoulder. This arm seemed to have eaten the Gum-Gum Fruit, extending two meters with just a stretch forward.
Just as he was about to grab Huo Yuhao, a hand suddenly appeared, gripping his wrist. It was Yuwen Tuo.
"Kid, who are you?" Langya was startled. A mere brat could actually grip Yutao's hand. He had just asked when he saw Yuwen Tuo's eyes, a bluish-brown, look towards him.
Langya's Martial Soul was actually his head, also a Martial Soul with very strong spiritual power. At this very moment, their spirits connected.
"You..." Langya's look of alarm deepened. He felt that this young man seemed to want to communicate with him, wanting to enter his Spiritual Sea. He wanted to hear what the other party had to say, and he wasn't afraid of a mere level 30-something youth entering his Spiritual Sea. He immediately released his mental defenses.
The next second, within Langya's Spiritual Sea, Yuwen Tuo's figure appeared. He cupped his hands towards Langya. "Senior, I am Yuwen Tuo. I have finally met you all. You just said that all Body Martial Soul users are family of the Body Sect. Then, besides Huo Yuhao, are you also willing to accept me back home?"
