Peerless: I Became Huo Yuhao's Dark Personality

Chapter 57: The Shrek Seven Devils? Back Off! (Two in One)

"I can only say that this matter is very difficult to handle." He Caitou, who usually remains silent, was the first to speak this time, with a very bitter expression.

"If it's difficult, then forget it! I really can't understand how he had the nerve to let me recklessly undergo a bloodline awakening. He said this without blinking an eye."

Xu Sanshi's face was full of anger, and he was obviously very angry. Of course, he didn't dare to sing a different tune in front of Xuanzi, let alone say so, but it was different when he went out.

"He also asked us to protect the glory of Shrek. Damn, if it weren't for him, would we be in this situation now? Three seniors died, two were seriously injured, and one had four limbs missing.

I originally thought he was just a simple person and unreliable, but now it seems he has some serious brain problems as well."

Xu Sanshi was really angry. He really didn't expect that after he clearly stated the disadvantages and hidden dangers of bloodline awakening, Xuanzi still wanted to get something for nothing.

"Sanshi, don't get excited. Master Xuan probably didn't mean that. Maybe we misunderstood him?" Beibei forced a smile, trying to change Xuanzi's image.

"Even if the academy doesn't want to give anything, at least they should say it in a nice way. How can you ask someone for help with this attitude?"

Not to mention Xu Sanshi, Wang Dong has already exploded. The greatest suffering this young master of Haotian Sect has ever experienced in his life may be during his time at Shrek Academy.

Living in a small, shabby dormitory with two people, I have to take a shower secretly, and there are no tables or chairs to eat at (the cafeteria for first-year students has no tables or chairs, so I have to stand up to eat after getting my food), and now I am asked to work hard for free.

An honest person might turn evil if treated like this, let alone Wang Dong, a young master who has lived a wealthy life since childhood and is extremely arrogant.

"Senior Brother, do you know about Master Xuan?" Huo Yuhao had met many extraordinary people from the Wuhun system, so his first reaction was not anger, but laughter.

After hearing what Huo Yuhao said, the other five people immediately turned their gaze to Bei Bei, and the meaning of their inquiry was self-evident.

"Actually, this isn't the first time this has happened."

Beibei hesitated for a while, but decided to tell it out. After all, the matter was not a secret and it caused a lot of uproar in the inner courtyard at that time.

"The first time was the big fight last time, we all know that." Xiao Xiao's clear voice sounded, a little confused.

"No, that wasn't the first time." Beibei's face looked even weirder, and she felt that Xuanzi was really too Tang.

"That happened several years ago. Back then, it was Elder Xuan who led the team to obtain spirit rings for the inner court disciples.

During the journey, Master Xuan accidentally got separated from the inner courtyard students, and the students happened to encounter a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Most of the students at that time were Soul Emperors, and the highest was only one Soul Sage.

Because Master Xuan was away, the twelve students were forced to fight a bitter battle against a hundred thousand year old spirit beast. By the time Master Xuan arrived, eight inner court disciples had already died in the battle.

After listening to Beibei's story, the other six people looked at each other in surprise. Did they accidentally get separated? And happened to encounter a hundred thousand year old soul beast?

Are you saying that a level 98 Super Douluo, as the team leader, got separated from his students, and then arrived late after two-thirds of the students had died? Is that correct?
"After listening to you, I suddenly feel a little fortunate. At least I am still alive. I have made up my mind."

Xu Sanshi's words attracted everyone's attention, and they were curious about what the other party would say next.

"I'll go home straight after I graduate from the Foreign Affairs College and take over my father's job."

After Xu Sanshi finished speaking, Beibei was the one who reacted the most. He was shocked and said, "Have you forgotten our identity? We have an agreement with the academy."

"What agreement? What are you talking about?" Xiao Xiao asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Xu Sanshi looked at Beibei and raised his eyebrows, which meant that you should solve the mess you created yourself.

"Forget it. You will all be the Shrek Seven Devils in the future anyway, so it doesn't matter if I tell you." Bei Bei hesitated for a moment and said slowly:

"Sanshi and I are also core disciples like you, but we are a little different. Not long after we became core disciples, we were invited by the academy because of our outstanding talent and strength.

We will become the designated next generation of Shrek Seven Devils and will receive more resources. There are only two of us in the entire outer courtyard.

But the prerequisite is that we must take the inner courtyard assessment after graduating from the outer courtyard, and become a Shrek Supervisor for no less than five years.

In fact, you guys should also be invited later. The academy will definitely attach great importance to people like Yuhao's Ultimate Ice and Xiaoxiao's Twin Martial Souls."

“Back off, back off! Shrek Seven Devils, stay away from me!” Huo Yuhao was horrified. He felt that the future of becoming one of the Shrek Seven Devils was bleak.

"Forget it, I don't really want to go to the inner courtyard." Xiao Xiao didn't expect the topic to be about herself, so she quickly stepped back and waved her hand to refuse.

"Hmm? Why? The inner courtyard is the cradle of geniuses. You can meet more outstanding people and enjoy the best resources."

Beibei was very surprised. Shrek's inner courtyard was well-known in the mainland. All students who graduated from the inner courtyard were recruited by major forces.

"Didn't Master Xuan say before that graduates from the Inner Court must complete thirty Supervisory Group missions, and there's no guarantee of compensation.

Look at our seniors, every one of them is a strong man, yet they all suffered heavy injuries in this mission, some even lost their lives. I think it's better to forget it. I'll be content with graduating from the external school."

Xiaoxiao is very smart, and her family is also quite powerful, so she can have a more stable growth process. It is better for her to give up being a free laborer.

Beibei's face froze when he heard that, and he turned his gaze back to Xu Sanshi, returning to the original topic.

"We've all signed the agreement, what are you going to do? Just walk away?"

"I have my own clever plan. The most I have to do is pay the academy some money. At worst, I can ask my dad to talk me into it." Xu Sanshi looked profound and confident.

Xu Sanshi secretly marveled at the power of technology in his heart. When he was talking with Xuan Zi just now, he had quietly taken out the recording soul guide to record the entire conversation.

With this recording, Shrek is the one who is in the wrong. If this recording is thrown out, Shrek's reputation will definitely suffer a major blow, but it will also lead to the hostility between Xuanming Sect and Shrek.

Therefore, the safest way is to pay a small amount of money. With the recording in hand, Shrek did not dare to be anxious. Although their Xuanming Sect is a hidden sect, it does not mean that they are weak.

Not to mention that Xu Sanshi's identity is not just from the Xuanming Sect. His mother is a descendant of the royal family. With these two identities, he doesn't have to worry about Shrek Academy getting angry.

"This..." What else could Beibei say? He could only smile bitterly. Apart from the agreement, he had no other position or reason to persuade Xu Sanshi. After all, if it were him, he would not feel good after hearing what Master Xuan said.

The only one who didn't speak was Jiang Nannan. She listened silently the whole time.

Jiang Nannan felt complicated. Xu Sanshi hadn't contacted her recently. While she felt a lot more at peace, she also felt empty inside.

Looking at Xu Sanshi who was filled with righteous indignation, she wanted to speak several times but gave up.

"I have a plan. We might as well just secretly let the game go and get eliminated." Wang Dong, who had been looking indignant just now, suddenly had his eyes lit up and turned into an idea king.

"Do you want to be bullied in the outer courtyard?" Xu Sanshi glanced at him with a faint voice.

"Given his strength, it's easy for him to judge our condition. Therefore, we can't do things like deliberately losing. We must lose normally."

"It's easy to say, but what if I get beaten into a pig's head by the opponent?" Wang Dong muttered in worry.

"Are you an idiot? You can't even figure this out. Yuhao, tell him what to do." Xu Sanshi cursed with a smile, his face speechless for a moment. "Use more long-range attack spirit skills and aim at the opponent. When the spirit power is gone, it will naturally end.

However, you should use the situation to engage in close combat, or even pretend you didn't notice the attack and use the momentum to step down. If someone asks you about it, just say you were nervous and didn't perform well."

After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Xu Sanshi nodded in satisfaction. "That's right. Among us, Caitou is the most convenient. He only needs to use his long-range soul guide to attack from the back with all his strength."

He Caitou just smiled foolishly when he heard this, and didn't say much. The few people who didn't have long-range soul skills were even more worried, because this meant that they would have to fight in close combat, and the safety factor was greatly reduced.

wrong!

The seven people who were advancing froze at the same time, turned their heads in unison, and shouted, "Soul Guidance Device!"

"Yes, how could I forget the soul guide!" Xu Sanshi looked surprised, as if he had discovered a new world.

"As long as each of us is equipped with a long-range attack soul guide, we can consume the soul power without getting close to the opponent!" Xiao Xiao couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.

Her fighting method is to use the Soul-Suppressing Cauldron to fight against her opponents. Although it is remotely controlled, there is a problem, that is, if the Soul-Suppressing Cauldron suffers an attack that exceeds its upper limit, it will backfire on itself.

In other words, she and the San Sheng Soul-Suppressing Cauldron have a relationship of shared success and shared failure. With Xiao Xiao's level of cultivation, she doesn't need to consider so much.

However, after hearing Xu Sanshi's analysis, she felt a little uneasy.

In case they encounter a powerful team before Ling Luochen has fully recovered, having a long-range soul guide can greatly reduce the risk of injury, and it will not be easy to be noticed if they are slacking off.

Everyone's good mood did not last long, because they were not familiar with Xingluo City and did not know where to find a reliable place to sell soul guides.

"We can go to the auction house. Xingluo's largest auction house is Xingguang Auction House. The quality of the items there is definitely no problem. With such a big reputation, they won't do anything to damage their reputation."

This proposal was unanimously agreed by everyone. As for the location, just ask anyone and you will know.

"Beibei, I really didn't expect you to join us in this. I thought you would firmly say that it was for the glory of Shrek."

On the way to the Starlight Auction House, Xu Sanshi suddenly said, looking at Beibei with a joking look.

"What can I do?" Beibei's face was extremely bitter, his eyes were helpless, and he said unhappily.

"Of course I want to protect this eternal glory, but the prerequisite is that I have the ability to do so. If I were really that kind of pedantic and stubborn person, would you still say that to my face?

To be honest, what Master Xuan did was indeed not fair, but how could I, a junior, dare to say anything?

Actually, I still don't believe that the academy doesn't have the right people to support it. Although the inner court disciples have their own supervisory missions, it shouldn't be to the point where there are no one to send."

When he said the last sentence, Beibei's face had become serious and his eyes were dark.

"You mean, the college deliberately doesn't support us? What's the point?" Xu Sanshi couldn't believe it and felt that what Beibei said was unlikely.

Could it be true that there were colleges that deliberately withheld support, only to allow these tiny flames to burn at all costs? Praising "Long Live Glory" while watching them do nothing—isn't that a contradiction?

"I'm actually not very sure, but the possibility of this speculation cannot be denied. The top management of the academy is really a bit unpredictable." Beibei frowned and sighed softly.

"Never mind him. I have already made up my mind. After I graduate from the external college, I will go home and live off my father's fortune. If any of you can't make it, come to me." Xu Sanshi smiled and felt relaxed all over.

Everyone chatted along the way and soon arrived at the door of the Starlight Auction House.

Most auction houses are divided into two parts. One part is the auction hall, which is also the part that the public is most impressed with. Its function is to auction items as everyone knows, and the highest bidder wins.

The other part is similar to an exchange, which will directly display the auction house’s own items with clearly marked prices without the need for bidding.

"Welcome, distinguished guests. Are you planning to bid or sell?"

This is not the main branch of Starlight Auction House, but just a branch, so there is no restriction on identity. If it were really the main branch, you would not be able to enter without an invitation or identity certificate.

After hearing what the waitress said, Bei Bei did not answer, but asked: "What are the rules of your auction house?"

"This is a low-level branch of the Starlight Auction House. To obtain a bidding spot in this auction house, you need to have an estimated value of over 30,000 Gold Soul Coins.

There are no prerequisites for selling items or directly purchasing items from the Bank."

When the waitress heard what Beibei said, she knew that the other party must be an expert and had at least attended several auctions.

In fact, this is true. Not only Beibei, but also Xu Sanshi is the same. It is not surprising that they have participated in auctions with their identities.

"We are the representative team of Shrek Academy and we want to buy some soul guides that are suitable for us."

If he really wanted to verify his capital, Beibei would definitely not be able to come up with 30,000 gold soul coins, so he immediately revealed his identity as Shrek.

"Shrek Academy? Could you please show me your Shrek Academy entry certificate?" The female attendant's tone instantly became more respectful, and her eyes became more respectful.

During the competition, many academies would come to the auction house to make purchases. This was quite normal, but the Shrek Academy was too famous, which was why the female attendant reacted in this way.

"Yes." As the team leader, Beibei of course had the certificate for the competition, and he immediately took it out and showed it to the female attendant for inspection.

"Thank you for your cooperation." The waitress took the certificate, confirmed it, and returned it to Beibei. Then she began to introduce the news about the soul guide to everyone.

"I'm very sorry, but our bank doesn't have any auctions for soul guides recently.

But three days later, a special auction of soul guides will be held in Hall 12 of the Starlight Auction House. Since it will only auction soul guides below level six, it will be considered a level four auction.

You are all VIPs of Shrek Academy. If you need anything, just leave your address and we will send you an invitation before tomorrow night."

"Your auction house's own exchange doesn't have soul guides?" Beibei was a little confused. This didn't seem right.

"It's like this. Our bank mainly sells special materials, including soul beast materials and metal materials. Hall No. 12 is the soul guide auction house." The waitress said apologetically.

"I see. Please prepare seven invitations for us. We are staying on the seventh floor of the Xingluo Royal Hotel."

After Beibei told the waitress the address, she led everyone away from the auction house.

"Junior brother, you are an expert in this area. What is the approximate price of a soul guide suitable for us?" As soon as they left the auction house, Bei Bei turned an inquiring look to Huo Yuhao.

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao immediately began to explain in detail the prices of soul guides of different levels.

"Elder brother..."
