Chapter 19 Choosing Huo Yuhao's Fate
After hearing Beibei's whisper, Tang Ya's eyes lit up.
"Yes, Beibei, you're so thoughtful."
Xiao Xiao looked at Tang Ya and Bei Bei with some confusion, not knowing what they were talking about.
However, Tang Ya immediately turned to Xiao Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, would you like to join our Tang Sect?"
"Huh?" Xiao Xiao stared blankly at Tang Ya. "Isn't this a bit too fast?"
"It's alright. Since you and Wang Dong'er helped Xiao Yuhao, as long as you're willing to come, the Tang Clan's invitation will remain valid indefinitely."
"Uh, let me think about it," Xiao Xiao said thoughtfully.
After the Tang Clan declined, it became like a third-rate organization, even inviting someone like her, whom they had only known for a short time, into the organization. They were far too greedy.
However, judging from Wang Dong'er's appearance, her background might be more powerful than she imagined.
A second soul ring after a thousand years—that's something no ordinary person can achieve. Even if it's not from a hidden sect, it must be from a super powerful family.
Maybe... Wang Dong'er can help me... No, that's not right.
Xiao Xiao shook her head. This was her own business. Since she considered Wang Dong'er a friend, how could she take advantage of her friend...
After stepping down from the fighting stage, Wang Dong'er headed straight for the audience seats.
Many viewers who hadn't left yet focused their attention on Wang Dong'er.
The dazzling and beautiful Goddess of Light Butterfly Martial Soul and the shock of the freshmen defeating the senior students left a lasting impression on them.
Perhaps I'll never forget it again.
As she climbed the steps, Wang Dong'er arrived at the spot where she had seen Xiao Xiao and the others earlier.
Although she doesn't possess Huo Yuhao's exceptionally keen observational eyes, her powerful mental strength makes her eyesight superior to that of ordinary people.
If she could have a method for training her eyes like the Purple Demon Eye, or even a more powerful technique, Wang Dong'er felt that perhaps she could also use her mental power to develop a soul skill similar to Huo Yuhao's Mental Impact.
After these few missions, Wang Dong'er had a general idea of some of the patterns in how the system issued missions.
From joining Shrek Academy at the beginning to defeating Xu Sanshi just now, almost all of these were announced after Wang Dong'er had made up her mind.
In other words, the system is simply pushing Wang Dong'er to make the choice she feels she should make.
However, Wang Dong'er didn't know if she would still receive a reward if she chose a different option for those tasks that offered choices.
"Dong'er, how are you?" Xiao Xiao came up to her, pulled Wang Dong'er aside and looked her over for a few moments. She was relieved to see that Wang Dong'er had no obvious injuries.
"You're going to be famous now! As a freshman, you defeated a fifth-year student. I reckon that Xu Sanshi will never be able to hold his head up high again!"
"Can you tell me what your martial soul is?" Tang Ya also came up and asked.
"The Goddess of Light Butterfly," Wang Dong'er said succinctly, only stating the name.
"The Goddess of Light Butterfly... What a beautiful Goddess of Light!" Bebe exclaimed from the side.
Only Huo Yuhao looked constipated, as if he didn't know what to say.
Wang Dong'er could sense that he seemed to want to ask her something, so she asked directly, "Is there something you want to ask me?"
Upon hearing Wang Dong'er's words, Huo Yuhao immediately felt relieved, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.
"What was that black tube you used on the Soul Arena just now?"
"Black pipe? What black pipe?" Tang Ya was taken aback.
Clearly, the beauty of the Goddess of Light Butterfly made her momentarily oblivious to the soul-guided cannon that Wang Dong'er was using.
"That's a soul tool."
"A soul tool? No wonder." Beibei suddenly realized.
Tang Ya fell silent, a rare occurrence, while Huo Yuhao, still curious, continued to ask, "May I take a look at it?"
"I want to see it too! I want to see it too!" Xiao Xiao raised her hand.
Wang Dong'er did not reply immediately. At this moment, a new task appeared on her system panel, but it was somewhat different from the previous ones.
[Mission: Soul Guidance Catastrophe]
Mission Description: Huo Yuhao, who possesses top-tier talent in soul tools, is either a friend or an enemy. The choice you make next will affect Huo Yuhao's future fate. Please choose carefully, Chosen One.
1. Agree to Huo Yuhao's proposal and actively guide him into the world of soul tools (with a certain probability of gaining Huo Yuhao's loyalty and receiving a mysterious reward).
2. Reject Huo Yuhao's proposal and extinguish Huo Yuhao's talent for cultivating soul tools (with a certain probability of incurring Huo Yuhao's hostility and receiving a mysterious reward)
This is the first time the system has issued such a serious warning.
But aren't these triggering conditions a bit too arbitrary? It's just about looking at a soul tool, yet there's such a serious disagreement?
Moreover, this time it was clearly stated that no matter what choice is made, a "mystery reward" will be given.
What level of mystery reward is this? Wang Dong'er asked the system.
However, the system did not respond.
Come to think of it, aside from the initial binding, the system was like a mute, never communicating with her.
"You can watch it if you want, but it's too late today. Let's talk about it tomorrow," Wang Dong'er finally replied.
As night was about to fall, the group returned to the dormitory building.
Xu Sanshi was already waiting here.
"Xu Sanshi? What are you doing here?" Tang Ya immediately pinched a golden needle-like object in her hand.
Xu Sanshi snorted coldly and said irritably, "I'm a man of my word, I'm here to deliver the goods."
Wang Dong'er explained, "Before the battle, I made a bet with him, and the stake was a Xuan Shui Pill."
"Mysterious Water Pill?" Bei Bei's gaze swept over. This Xu Sanshi actually dared to gamble. He had never gambled with her before.
If Wang Dong'er hadn't stepped forward, Tang Ya would probably have used the Dragon Beard Needle to hit Xu Sanshi today.
He could also use the Dragon Beard Needle to demand a Mysterious Water Pill from Xu Sanshi.
Huo Yuhao has a poor physique, and his first spirit ring is only a ten-year spirit ring. If he takes a Xuan Shui Pill, he will be guaranteed to be extremely loyal to the Tang Sect.
Loyalty to the Tang Sect is loyalty to Shrek Academy, after all, even the Tang Sect Master is Bei Bei's girlfriend.
This is how it should have been...
"And here are the gold soul coins I lost, count them yourself. Also, the Xuan Shui Pill is in there." With that, Xu Sanshi tossed over a cloth bag.
Although storage soul tools are not uncommon, they are still quite valuable and not something everyone can afford. Although Xu Sanshi has a good background, he only has one storage soul tool, so he put all his bets into a cloth bag.
In front of Xu Sanshi, Wang Dong'er made no attempt to hide her actions and immediately began to unpack and count the items, acting like a miser, which made Xu Sanshi so angry that his teeth itched.
Does he seem like the kind of person who would try to pass off inferior goods as superior ones?
"Yes, it's perfect." After counting the gold soul coins and confirming that the Xuan Shui Pill was genuine, Wang Dong'er put the cloth bag into her storage soul tool, completely ignoring Xu Sanshi's somewhat dark expression.
The original novel didn't mention Xiao Xiao's background or any related information. The idea that having twin martial souls would prevent her from enrolling in Shrek Academy is a bit too far-fetched. The author simply gave Xiao Xiao this arrangement, and I hope everyone understands.
