Chapter 87: Beauty is only fit for the strong.
A golden soul ring flashed past behind Huo Yuhao, casting a hazy golden aura around him.
The edges of the dragon scales, which were originally a cool white color, now have a layer of dazzling gold trim, making them shine brightly.
At the same time, Huo Yuhao was surrounded by golden light, and a faint dragon roar came from his body. The dragon scales covering his body stood up completely, exuding a fierce aura.
As his vital energy surged, that extremely yang and strong attribute began to weaken and even dispel the extreme icy aura that originally emanated from Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao felt his power surge, but at the same time he also realized that his ultimate ice attribute seemed to be suppressed.
He fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
He could sense that it wasn't entirely suppression; more accurately, it was a transformation.
The Fire Dragon King's soul, which had been dormant within Huo Yuhao's body, began to awaken as it was drawn by the aura.
On the white-gold dragon scales with golden edges, strange crimson patterns began to appear.
Extreme cold and yin begin to transform into extreme heat and yang.
A warm current began to flow through Huo Yuhao's limbs and bones.
But as Huo Yuhao felt that warm current, he always felt that something was missing.
Or rather, simply relying on the extremely strong and yang power of the Golden Dragon King is not enough to achieve the harmonious state of turning adversity into prosperity and the birth of yang from the extreme of yin.
Huo Yuhao's arms trembled slightly, and the golden rope that was originally binding his body was instantly shaken into pieces, turning into specks of golden light and dissipating into the air.
Even Han Ruoruo's usually serene and smiling face showed obvious surprise.
What she said earlier was absolutely true; the Golden Rope, enhanced with two soul skills, was indeed incredibly resilient and had the strongest binding power.
Based on his current performance, doesn't that mean that Huo Yuhao's physical strength alone is already no weaker than that of an ordinary power-attack type Soul Douluo?
Han Ruoruo noticed that Huo Yuhao seemed to be deep in thought, so she took the initiative to ask him.
"Junior, do we need to continue the test?"
Huo Yuhao snapped out of his thoughts, a gentle smile appearing on his face. He shook his head and said, "No need. Thank you for helping me this time, senior."
The dragon scales on his body also disappeared, restoring him to his original appearance.
But deep down, he was still pondering it.
The power of the Golden Dragon King is probably not yet compatible with the Ice Dragon King's martial soul.
Otherwise, the two opposing forces drawn out will clash within the body, and it may explode before it can undergo a deeper qualitative change, just like the Snow Emperor in her previous life whose Snow Pill was ignited by the Frost Jade Marrow Bed.
After all, he didn't have a fourth martial soul, the Fire Dragon King, to mediate.
He cannot forcibly control the Fire Dragon King's Fire Soul with his mental power alone at his current level.
If the dragon inside him were the Silver Dragon King instead of the Golden Dragon King, things might be a little better.
The Silver Dragon King's ability to control the seven elements is clearly more suitable than the Gold Dragon King's pure, ultimate power.
Seeing that Huo Yuhao and Han Ruoruo had already released their martial souls, Wu Ming casually stepped forward and walked to their side.
A hint of curiosity flickered in her peach-colored eyes; Huo Yuhao's ice-attribute martial soul was still within her comprehension.
But after the dragon scales were edged with gold and adorned with fire patterns, the terrifying dragon might they emitted caused even her martial spirit to tremble instinctively.
However, although Wu Ming is unconventional, she knows her limits and won't pry into other people's secrets, especially those involving the secrets of their martial souls.
Wu Ming smiled broadly and said, "Junior brother, I just heard from senior sister that you need to add a spirit ring to another spirit attribute martial soul?"
Spirit-attribute soul beasts are hard to find in the Star Dou Great Forest. But don't worry, your senior will definitely protect you and do her best to help you find them.
Han Ruoruo, who was listening from the side, chuckled and said, "Ming'er, you were just defeated by the junior student. It's not certain who will help whom in the end."
"Sister Ruoruo~" Wu Ming drawled, clearly a little dissatisfied, "I can fly, and my scouting range is wide. I'll definitely be able to help my junior find a suitable soul beast."
"Then I'll have to trouble Senior Wu Ming." Huo Yuhao didn't refuse Wu Ming's kindness and agreed with a smile.
Watching the three conversing harmoniously, Zhang Lexuan felt gratified.
She has decided to dedicate her life to the college, and she is naturally delighted to see the growth of the new generation.
Not to mention Huo Yuhao, the exceptionally talented junior brother.
However, it would be better if he were more decisive in matters of the heart.
Originally, she had only guessed that Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming both had feelings for Huo Yuhao, but now, seeing their behavior, she was probably right.
Junior brother, are you able to handle these complicated feelings?
A touch of melancholy welled up in Zhang Lexuan's heart.
……
At night, Poseidon Island is quiet and serene, with moonlight like quicksilver spilling onto the winding paths.
Huo Yuhao, who had just come out of Xian Lin'er's office, already knew that his application to participate in the Star Dou Great Forest Soul Beast Hunting Operation had been officially approved by the Sea God Pavilion.
The team leading this time can be described as very impressive, with Zhang Lexuan as the team leader, and Elder Xuan and Yan Shaozhe also present to support them.
This clearly demonstrates the importance that the Sea God Pavilion attaches to this Soul Hunting Operation.
However, when he heard Xian Lin'er mention that the initial plan only involved Elder Xuan leading the team, Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat.
Compared to the Xuan Lao who had a period of abstinence from alcohol in his previous life, the current Xuan Lao can be described as truly reckless and unruly.
The target area for this Soul Hunting Operation is deep into the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest. If Elder Xuan is the only one leading the team, given his current condition, it's hard to say what might happen.
Xian Lin'er had obviously considered this point at the time, especially since she knew about the trouble that Elder Xuan had caused due to his negligence.
Therefore, Xianliner specifically requested that someone accompany her to ensure everything went smoothly.
However, such soul-hunting operations are usually handled entirely by the Martial Soul System.
In the end, Yan Shaozhe volunteered to become the commander-in-chief of the operation.
With Yan Shaozhe in charge, Huo Yuhao finally felt at ease.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao was walking on the path of Poseidon Island, which was shrouded in moonlight. The evening breeze brought the cool scent of the lake water, but a sense of hesitation welled up in his heart.
This hesitation wasn't because of the upcoming Soul Hunting Operation, but because Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen were most likely already waiting for him in his little attic tonight.
Not long ago, Ling Luochen returned from an inner courtyard mission with Zhang Lexuan to find that Ma Xiaotao had stolen his home.
Ling Luochen knew that Huo Yuhao had many female admirers in the outer courtyard, but she didn't care much about it.
But Ma Xiaotao is absolutely out of the question; they are simply incompatible.
When Ling Luochen saw Ma Xiaotao's intimate gestures towards Huo Yuhao, this usually calm and composed ice queen almost fought Ma Xiaotao to the death.
Huo Yuhao had a hard time appeasing Ling Luochen, and the reason he was able to appease her so easily was largely because Ling Luochen unilaterally believed that Ma Xiaotao must have seduced Huo Yuhao.
After all, in her eyes, Ma Xiaotao was an inherently evil woman.
At this moment, the atmosphere in Huo Yuhao's attic room was so heavy it was almost palpable.
Ma Xiaotao, dressed in a fiery red outfit, with cool dark red shorts covering her ample hips and a small section of her rounded thighs, was leaning back on the sofa.
But her captivating phoenix eyes were filled with irritation, and a faint red light flickered around her.
"Ling Luochen, what exactly will make you satisfied?"
Ma Xiaotao's voice was filled with suppressed anger. She never knew that this guy who always acted aloof could be so stubborn.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was Huo Yuhao's god-sister, given her temperament, she would never have been so humble towards Ling Luochen.
The latest novel is first published here!
Ma Xiaotao looked at the woman sitting upright on the sofa opposite her.
Ling Luochen was wearing an ice-blue short skirt, her straight and slender legs encased in white stockings, her curves beautiful, and her pretty face held a look of disdain.
Ling Luochen sneered inwardly.
If it weren't for the news that evil spirit masters were appearing in her hometown, she wouldn't have gone with her senior sister to carry out that inner courtyard mission, and she wouldn't have given that little bitch Ma Xiaotao the opportunity to sneak in and steal the place.
And this Ma Xiaotao actually dared to dream of sharing Huo Yuhao with me?
That's wishful thinking, not a chance.
Even if those students from the Foreign Languages Department benefited, she would never let Ma Xiaotao get away with it.
It can only be said that Ma Xiaotao had a very clever plan, but unfortunately, Ling Luochen didn't fall for it at all.
Seeing that Ling Luochen didn't want to say anything more to her, Ma Xiaotao smiled charmingly. Since her gentle approach wasn't working, she would have to resort to force.
"Ling Luochen, do you know how many female admirers Yuhao has in the outer courtyard?"
Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms in front of her chest. This simple gesture revealed her amazingly soft curves and highlighted her enviable assets.
This sight made Ling Luochen, whose attention had already been drawn to Ma Xiaotao's words, grind his teeth inwardly once again.
She really is an inherently evil woman, with such a lewd body, no wonder she seduced Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao is so outstanding, is it strange that he attracts other girls his age in the outer courtyard?" Ling Luochen smiled sneer. "Why would I be jealous over such a small thing? That's ridiculous."
She knew this before she left the academy, but did she ever argue with Huo Yuhao about it?
Ma Xiaotao's attempt to sow discord through this matter is a gross underestimation of Ling Luochen.
Since she can accept Huo Yuhao, it means that she tolerates Huo Yuhao's ability to attract women.
Anyway, as long as it's not Ma Xiaotao, she can accept anyone else.
Ma Xiaotao feigned distress and said with a wry smile, "Ling Luochen, are you thinking that at most a few, you can still accept Huo Yuhao's womanizing ways?"
"What if I told you that during the time you were gone, Huo Yuhao had already attracted the attention of eight girls in the outer courtyard? And if I hadn't intervened, there would probably have been a few more girls vying for his attention in that short period."
Ling Luochen's pupils contracted slightly upon hearing Ma Xiaotao's words, and he looked somewhat shocked.
Eight?
She had been mentally prepared beforehand and was aware of Huo Yuhao's charm.
But she originally didn't think that many girls would be able to accept the presence of other people, but now, the number is a bit too much.
Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, her voice carrying just the right amount of worry:
"Not long ago, my senior sister specifically reminded me that Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming might both have a special affection for Yuhao, and told me to pay more attention to it in the future."
"So now, Ling Luochen, as Yuhao's god-sister, what are you planning to do?"
Hearing Ma Xiaotao's question, Ling Luochen's heart tightened.
Counting the eight from the outer courtyard, plus the two from the inner courtyard, plus myself and Ma Xiaotao, that's almost more than ten.
There are far more wolves than sheep, and even if I occupy the position of Yuhao's older sister, I probably won't get much benefit in this situation.
Seeing Ling Luochen's slightly nervous expression, Ma Xiaotao chuckled inwardly, but on the surface, she sighed softly.
"Ling Luochen, now you know how big the problem is, right? And the biggest problem is that Yuhao is too gentle and doesn't know how to refuse others."
Besides, how many of those girls from the other departments have enough talent to stay with Yuhao until the end? As his godmother, shouldn't you find an opportunity to have a serious talk with Yuhao?
Ling Luochen looked up at Ma Xiaotao, a hint of confusion on his face.
Is this still the Ma Xiaotao she used to know? How can she analyze problems so calmly?
Given her usually fiery and direct personality, she wouldn't just grab and take possession of anything she likes, and if anyone dared to touch it, she would definitely chop off their hands without hesitation.
Could it be that Huo Yuhao helped her suppress the evil fire, causing her intelligence to regain its superiority?
A glint of shrewdness flashed in Ma Xiaotao's phoenix eyes.
As expected, the strategy of "befriending distant states while attacking nearby ones" and "secretly crossing the Chencang pass" taught by his master's wife was very effective.
Judging from Ling Luochen's current appearance, he has probably been persuaded and will likely go to Huo Yuhao to advise him to restrain himself.
According to his teacher's wife's analysis, it is perfectly normal for Huo Yuhao, as a young genius, to attract the opposite sex and even enjoy being surrounded by them.
But if you try to persuade him directly, it might trigger the rebellious mentality that is typical of his age.
Moreover, how many people can truly stay with Huo Yuhao until the end?
He had secretly formed an unbreakable alliance with Ning Tian and had taken control of the situation in the outer courtyard.
So, if I lower Ling Luochen's special status in Huo Yuhao's heart, how far can I get from becoming the main wife?
As expected, Master's wife is both powerful and formidable, with endless tricks up her sleeve. She truly deserves to be called a terrifying woman who can keep even someone like Master firmly under control.
If it were me in the past handling this matter, I probably would have thought of simply beating Ling Luochen into submission.
Doing so would only lower your own standing in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and might even benefit Ling Luochen.
Ling Luochen's white-stockinged feet rubbed nervously, clearly her heart was in turmoil because of Ma Xiaotao's words.
Just as the atmosphere in the living room became tense, and the two were lost in their own thoughts.
When Huo Yuhao pushed open the door, he was met with a scene of silent confrontation.
Two different scents seemed to permeate the air, almost dividing the living room in two.
Sensing the heavy atmosphere, Huo Yuhao spoke cautiously.
"Gentlemen, would you like to eat first?"
