Boom—
A fierce battle erupted between the two Super Douluo in the sky.
This was already the second time Su Yunlin had witnessed a battle between Super Douluo.
Not long afterward, Yan Shaozhe brought Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao over. The main reason was Huo Yuhao. Possessing a Body Martial Soul made him Du Busi's primary target. More importantly, Huo Yuhao also possessed an Ultimate Ice Martial Soul and shared a close relationship with Yan Shaozhe's disciple, Ma Xiaotao.
According to Ma Xiaotao, she and Huo Yuhao were capable of Spirit Power fusion. Taking all of this into account, there was no way Yan Shaozhe would hand Huo Yuhao over.
"Come in."
Elder Mu's voice rang out as Yan Shaozhe led Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao into the Sea God Pavilion.
Su Yunlin and Wang Dong stood beside Elder Mu. Elder Mu looked toward Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, that person outside is the Body Sect's Sect Master, Du Busi. Your talent is quite outstanding, and to this day you still haven't taken a master. Yunlin also suggested that you acknowledge Du Busi as your master so he can teach you how to cultivate your Body Martial Soul. What do you think?"
Huo Yuhao immediately answered that the academy had nurtured him, so he would never leave it. Moreover, he already belonged to a sect and would never betray the Tang Sect.
Su Yunlin was speechless.
"The idea is for you to personally take Du Busi as your master, not join the Body Sect. Elder Mu would handle the negotiations with him afterward. Elder Mu's intention is to give you a powerful backer.
"Your primary Martial Soul is your Spirit Eyes. Only the Body Sect possesses a complete cultivation path for Body Martial Souls. There's nothing wrong with taking Du Busi as your master. As for not wanting to leave either the academy or the Tang Sect, those things can all be negotiated. Why are you so stubborn?"
Huo Yuhao scratched his head awkwardly.
"So that's what you meant? Elder Mu, you…"
Elder Mu smiled.
"That's exactly what I meant. Relax, you're still a disciple of the academy. This old man won't let you suffer losses. Hmm? It seems Du Busi has improved somewhat. Xuan Zi is actually being completely suppressed."
In the sky—
Du Busi was suppressing Elder Xuan at every turn, leaving Elder Xuan fighting in an extremely stifled manner. Previously, although he had been at a disadvantage, it had never felt this oppressive.
"Old Freak Du, you've become stronger again? Why is your strength so monstrous?"
Du Busi burst into laughter.
"You and I are both Rank 98, but you lack two hundred-thousand-year Spirit Rings. You were never going to beat me in the first place! And not long ago, I encountered an incredibly powerful opponent. In terms of sheer strength, he was far above a little calf like you! Xuan brat, you can't beat me!"
"Old Freak Du, come again!" Elder Xuan naturally refused to accept defeat. He charged forward once more to clash with Du Busi, all nine Spirit Rings around his body seeming to blaze with power.
The two great experts resumed their battle. Elder Xuan unleashed every method at his disposal, but Du Busi dissolved each one effortlessly. Although Du Busi was still at Rank 98, he now stood only a single step away from Rank 99!
"Damn it! You old poison monster really are getting stronger and stronger!"
Elder Xuan's figure was blasted backward once more. He had no choice but to admit that the current Du Busi far surpassed him. Throughout the entire fight, he was being completely overwhelmed. He did not even possess the qualifications to drag Du Busi down with him.
Du Busi rolled his neck casually.
"Xuan Zi, you can't continue anymore, can you? After all these years, you haven't improved at all. If you have no other tricks left, then this sect master will be taking my people away. Neither Huo Yuhao nor Su Yunlin will escape!"
Elder Xuan immediately roared, "You dare?!"
Du Busi curled his lips disdainfully.
"What is there that this sect master wouldn't dare to do? Enough already! We've fought, and you can't beat me anyway. You also can't stop me! What else do you want? Do you really want me to release my natal poison? If that happens, Shrek Academy won't survive!"
"Old Freak Du! If you want to take my grandson away, ask me first!"
A streak of black light shot into the sky.
It was Su Tianxuan!
Two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red Spirit Ring rose around him. Su Tianxuan's Spirit Ring configuration was identical to Elder Xuan's.
"Oh? Su Tianxuan? I didn't expect you to be here as well. Have you broken through to Rank 98? Unfortunately, you still aren't my opponent. For the sake of us both being citizens of the Heavenly Soul Empire, this old man won't make things difficult for you."
"Su Yunlin is the disciple this old man has set his sights on. That astonishing vitality and blood energy in his body can only be properly trained by this sect master! Or perhaps the two of you want to join forces and have some fun with me instead?"
Du Busi showed no fear toward the two of them. Even though Elder Xuan and Su Tianxuan were both Rank 98 like himself, he possessed three hundred-thousand-year Spirit Rings along with the uniquely gifted Body Martial Soul. In a true battle, the victor was still uncertain!
"If Xuan Zi and Tianxuan can't stop you, then what about me?"
At that moment, a gentle voice echoed out. Immediately afterward, the Sea God Pavilion released a soft golden radiance, and within that light, the phantom image of a white dragon could faintly be seen.
"Sea God's Light! Who activated the Sea God's Light? It's you! You're actually still alive?!"
Du Busi cried out in shock. He had never expected this old monster to still be living.
"The past has long since become dust and smoke. Life and death are matters of fate; there is no need to mention them again. You should understand that Su Yunlin is already my disciple. If you continue scheming against him, don't blame this old man for personally visiting the Body Sect to demand an explanation."
Elder Mu's voice was calm and indifferent, yet to Du Busi it felt like an invisible heavy blow. His aura instantly weakened by several degrees.
Without changing expression, Du Busi replied, "Fine! Since the Dragon God Douluo has already accepted Su Yunlin as a disciple, this sect master won't steal what someone else cherishes! But what about Huo Yuhao? He possesses a Body Martial Soul. From the moment he was born, he belonged to my Body Sect. This sect master has come to bring him home."
Elder Mu answered calmly, "That depends on Huo Yuhao's own wishes. You may enter the Sea God Pavilion and ask for his decision, but you may not force him. Come in."
The moment these words were spoken, the three Rank 98 Super Douluo in the sky simultaneously restrained their auras. Du Busi gave a cold snort before glancing toward the disciples of the Body Sect behind him.
"I'll go inside for a moment. Wait here."
"Yes!"
Du Busi transformed into a streak of green light and entered the Sea God Pavilion. This was his first time stepping inside the Sea God Pavilion.
The instant he entered, his attention locked onto Huo Yuhao. As the Sect Master of the Body Sect, his perception of Body Martial Souls far surpassed that of ordinary people.
"Senior."
Yan Shaozhe instinctively shielded Huo Yuhao behind himself.
"Get aside!"
Du Busi casually waved a slap, instantly sending Yan Shaozhe flying away. However, a streak of golden light immediately caught Yan Shaozhe and gently lowered him to the ground.
"Bu Si, you still have the exact same temper as your elder brother."
Elder Mu slowly walked out, supported on either side by Su Yunlin and Wang Dong.
"Dragon God Douluo."
Du Busi nodded respectfully toward Elder Mu. Faced with an Limit Douluo, he still maintained a respectful attitude.
"Mhm. Yuhao is here. If you can persuade him, this old man has no objections. But if you attempt to force Yuhao, then don't blame this old man for personally disciplining you!"
Golden light shone within Elder Mu's eyes as an incomparably overbearing pressure spread outward.
Du Busi was inwardly shocked. He had not expected the Dragon God Douluo to still be this powerful!
No wonder his elder brother had died by Mu En's hand back then.
However, Du Busi did not particularly hate Mu En. The two sides had fought a life-and-death battle, each relying on their own abilities.
Mu En had defeated Du Busi through sheer strength. Du Busi understood his elder brother's power very well. Since even his elder brother had lost to the Dragon God Douluo, there was nothing to lament.
Mu En had won through his own power. If Du Busi were to harbor grievances over that battle, it would instead be a disrespect toward his own elder brother.
Du Busi turned to Huo Yuhao, then suddenly smiled as he patted him on the shoulder.
"So you're Huo Yuhao?"
"Yes, Senior." Huo Yuhao remained neither servile nor overbearing.
"Mmm~ not bad. At such a young age, yet your temperament is already this steady. Excellent, excellent. Little fellow, Shrek Academy is incapable of allowing your Martial Soul to reach its ultimate limits. Only the Body Sect can—"
Du Busi began trying to persuade him through words alone, but Huo Yuhao remained completely unmoved, making the atmosphere of their conversation rather awkward.
Su Yunlin glanced toward Elder Mu.
"Teacher, let me mediate a bit."
Elder Mu nodded.
"Go ahead."
