Soul Land 2: Huo Yuhao, Join Sun and Moon

Chapter 105: If Huo Yuhao Goes All Out, It Might Be a Bit Tricky!

Mu En felt that his time was running out, so he wanted to talk to these kids about the Soul Dueling Tournament.

Truthfully, he hoped that in the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Dueling Tournament, Shrek Academy could win the championship.

After all, in this tournament, Shrek Academy's withdrawal was absolutely outrageous.

Even if they didn't win, at the very least, they should have fought more battles and gained some experience.

Even if they couldn't uphold Shrek's "Ten Thousand Year Glory," Mu En wouldn't have been too upset.

Of course, he often claimed that this "Ten Thousand Year Glory" was nothing but a shackle, but from his perspective, the team should still give their best effort.

Winning the championship would naturally be ideal.

But withdrawing wasn't just about losing the championship it was cowardice.

He still remembered a saying that had been passed down at Shrek Academy:

"Those who fear causing trouble are mediocrities."

From his understanding, withdrawing was equivalent to fleeing without a fight a trait of mediocrities.

Because of this withdrawal, even when he visited the grave of his ancestor, Yu Xiaogang, he felt deeply uneasy.

After all, in all of history, Shrek Academy had never taken the initiative to withdraw from the Soul Dueling Tournament and openly accuse the organizers of corruption.

He knew that this was Xuan Zi's fault.

But he couldn't publicly criticize Xuan Zi or tell the students that many of the academy's recent failures were caused by him.

After all, Mu En's body was failing he wouldn't live much longer.

When he passed, Shrek Academy would have to rely on Xuan Zi to hold everything together.

So he had to protect Xuan Zi's reputation for the sake of Shrek Academy's future.

But just as he was about to continue speaking, he noticed that Bei Bei looked distraught.

The smile on his face disappeared, and he sighed.

"Bei Bei!"

Bei Bei snapped out of his daze.

His face was weary, his bloodshot eyes making him look utterly exhausted.

The once spirited and confident Bei Bei had vanished, replaced by a depressed young man.

Xu Sanshi also glanced at him with concern.

The two were brothers, and of course, Xu Sanshi wanted Bei Bei to be okay.

But the problem was clear Bei Bei's state was off.

He knew that Bei Bei had been searching for Tang Ya in Heaven Dou City, desperately trying to find any trace of her.

When he failed, he had returned to Shrek Academy to ask for help.

But Xu Sanshi felt that the chances of success were slim.

In his mind, Tang Ya was not the type to vanish willingly.

If she had disappeared, then it meant she had been taken.

But who would kidnap Tang Ya?

Or worse...

Was she already dead?

"Bei Bei, you have to pull yourself together."

Mu En sighed, "Don't worry, I'll have people keep an eye out for Tang Ya.

If she's found, we'll bring her back to the academy.

Even though she dropped out, she was still a Shrek Academy student for a long time.

As such, the academy has a duty to ensure her safety."

Of course, more importantly, she was his future great granddaughter in law.

If she could be saved, then she must be saved.

Bei Bei nodded silently, but his expression remained troubled.

Mu En had no better way to comfort him, so he turned to Xu Sanshi.

"Sanshi, who do you think will be our strongest opponents in the next tournament?"

Xu Sanshi thought for a moment, then listed names as if reciting from memory.

"I think there are many opponents worth paying attention to for example:

Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, and Huo Yuhao.

Each of them has their own unique strengths, so in the next Soul Dueling Tournament, they will be Shrek Academy's biggest threats.

But above all Huo Yuhao.

He left the strongest impression on me."

Mu En sighed, "Indeed, Huo Yuhao is an unforgettable child.

After all, he is Duke White Tiger's son, and given the current situation, he has already cut ties with his father.

And he's also a student at Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.

With all these factors combined, the one who must be most troubled is Dai Hao.

Sanshi, if you were to face Huo Yuhao in a one on one elimination match, do you think you could win?"

Xu Sanshi snapped open his fan, his confidence unwavering.

"If Huo Yuhao goes all out, it might be a bit tricky.

I've watched his battles and studied him carefully.

He's a spiritual type soul master and an expert in soul tools.

There's no doubt he's a genius.

I believe everyone here would agree on that.

By the time the next tournament comes around, he'll have made huge progress, and he'll definitely give us a massive surprise.

But!

I'll win!

With my strength, defeating Huo Yuhao won't be an issue at all.

Of course, I'll go easy on him after all, he's Bei Bei's friend.

And as Bei Bei's brother, I can't go too hard on him."

As he spoke, he seemed full of confidence.

But in reality...

He was stealing glances at Jiang Nannan, watching her reaction.

He wanted to see if his bold words would impress her.

But unfortunately...

Jiang Nannan's expression remained ice cold.

She still looked at him with disdain.

Xu Sanshi sighed internally.

He knew he deserved this treatment, but that didn't make it hurt any less.

Mu En turned to Bei Bei.

"Huo Yuhao is your friend?"

Bei Bei sighed.

"Calling him a friend might be too much.

We've only met twice at most, we just know each other.

But he's a good kid."

Mu En nodded.

"Bei Bei, when you go to Sun Moon Empire, you should try asking Huo Yuhao for help in finding Tang Ya.

With his talent, he's probably highly valued by the Sun Moon higher ups.

Meanwhile, Shrek Academy's influence in the Sun Moon Empire is weak.

So if we want to search for Tang Ya there, it would be very difficult."

Bei Bei's eyes lit up.

"That's right!

I can ask Yuhao for help!

What if Tang Ya was kidnapped and taken to Sun Moon?

Once I get there, I'll invite Yuhao to a meal and ask if he has any way to help me search.

I just hope Tang Ya is only missing and not dead..."

Mu En nodded.

"I believe Tang Ya is only missing.

The Tang Sect is long gone, so she shouldn't have many enemies.

And her only known enemy, Ironblood Sect, has already been wiped out.

Most likely, someone kidnapped her to use her against you.

And if that's the case, then they probably took her to Sun Moon Empire.

After all, that's the one place Shrek Academy has no power.

If her kidnappers stayed in Douluo's three nations, they'd be asking for death.

Shrek Academy may be neutral, but our influence runs deep in Douluo's nations."

Bei Bei nodded firmly, his spirit slightly lifted.

"Ancestor, you're right!

Tang Ya wouldn't just disappear for no reason.

She must have been taken.

I'll prepare some gifts when I reach Sun Moon, I'll bring them to Yuhao and ask for his help!"
