Chapter 50 Huge Loss
After a day of rest, all the teams in the Round of 64 gathered outside the assessment area.
Huo Yuhao and his two companions were queuing up to draw lots. Because they were bored, they chatted casually.
"Huo Yuhao".
Suddenly, a voice, both unfamiliar and somewhat familiar, gently rang in his ear.
Huo Yuhao turned around and saw that Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo had come to his side at some point, while their captain Huang Chutian was nodding slightly to him from a distance.
Seeing the two sisters' hesitant expressions, Huo Yuhao was a little confused.
"What's wrong?"
The two sisters glanced at Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong beside him, looking somewhat hesitant.
Wang Dong's jealousy surged at the same time. After snorting coldly, she turned her head away, looking as if she didn't want to see Huo Yuhao chatting and laughing with other girls.
Xiao Xiao was much more understanding than him. She nodded slightly to Huo Yuhao and said, "Go ask. Wang Dong and I will wait here."
Huo Yuhao said nothing more and walked to a corner of the venue with Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo.
"Can you tell me now?"
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo blushed slightly. After exchanging a glance, Lan Susu explained their purpose.
"We are very grateful to you for helping us restore our mental energy. After returning, when Lolo and I meditated, we were able to see inwards and even see what was happening inside our mental sea. We think this must be largely related to you, which is why we came to find you."
Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that the previous mental resonance would bring them such significant progress, because he himself hadn't felt anything afterward, neither good nor bad. Now, hearing Lan Susu say this, it was possible that his mental cultivation was much higher than theirs.
After a brief moment of surprise, Huo Yuhao suddenly realized something. Just as he looked at Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo, he found that the two sisters seemed to have something they wanted to tell him. The three of them looked at each other and suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
After calming himself down, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and then quietly asked the two women, "What did you see in the Sea of Spirit?"
Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo exchanged a serious look before Lan Susu calmly answered, "A light purple, rhomboid crystal the size of a soybean. Luoluo and I each have one. It's located within our spiritual seas."
The size of a soybean? Pale purple? Could this be a crystallization of stellar power?!
Huo Yuhao was shocked. He never expected that the previous anomaly at the Star Gate would bring such a wonderful encounter to these two girls!
The power of stars is inherently difficult to absorb, let alone refine or compress! If it weren't for the Star-Guiding Technique assisting his cultivation, he would have been considered exceptionally talented if he could accumulate even a wisp of star power within ten days by simply bathing in starlight every night.
As a result, during the last Star Gate anomaly, they generously gave each of the two girls a Star Crystal.
He felt like he was going to vomit blood.
What a waste of money! So incredibly wasteful!
If he were to absorb these two star crystals, it would be equivalent to at least half a month's worth of star power he cultivated himself.
Huo Yuhao suppressed the urge to swear, reached out and patted Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo on the shoulders, forcing a smile with a hint of reluctance.
"Don't ask too many questions. Just try to use your mental energy to guide the starlight to aid your cultivation every night."
The two sisters wanted to ask more questions, but Huo Yuhao cut them off. Helpless, they could only nod slightly to Huo Yuhao.
"Alright then, we won't ask any more questions. Thank you for your explanation."
Just as Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo were about to leave, Huo Yuhao used his soul power to transmit a message to them, "After the competition, let's find a chance to have a meal together."
Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo were stunned for a moment, but Huo Yuhao clearly saw them subtly nod their chins, which was considered as them accepting Huo Yuhao's invitation.
Feeling cheated, Huo Yuhao rubbed his face hard, finally shaking off his gloomy mood. Composing himself, he quickly returned to Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao's side.
The two looked at Huo Yuhao with somewhat jealous eyes, but neither of them said a word.
Huo Yuhao coughed twice, feigning composure, and said, "Why are you all looking at me?"
Wang Dong opened his mouth, unsure how to react. In a fit of anger, he tried to stomp on Huo Yuhao's shoe, but he only managed a brief moment of anger and couldn't possibly hit it.
While dealing with Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao's small hand had already secretly grabbed Huo Yuhao's clothes, and she leaned gently towards him with her head down.
Huo Yuhao's alarm bells went off immediately, and he quickly and quietly activated the simulation, fearing that Wang Dong would discover Xiao Xiao's actions and cause a sudden uproar!
Through her clothes, her soft body gently pressed against Huo Yuhao's arm. Xiao Xiao's touch was different from Wang Dong's; it was a soft, yielding feeling. At the same time, a faint scent of pine wafted to his nose, making him feel restless and his heart pounding.
But he was helpless; both his hands were busy! He simply couldn't free them up!
With one hand carefully mimicking how he dealt with Wang Dong, and the other arm resting on Xiao Xiao, Huo Yuhao began his daily prison sentence, filled with both pressure and intense excitement.
Finally, it was their turn to draw lots. Xiao Xiao reluctantly let go of Huo Yuhao's arm. At that moment, Wang Dong, on the other side, keenly noticed the abnormality between the two of them and was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth.
If he still doesn't realize that Huo Yuhao has activated the simulation, he might as well jump into the Sea God Lake and be reincarnated!
As for what the two did after starting the simulation...
Wang Dong simply couldn't believe it!
I was here first!
Wang Dong, his face flushed with anger, was on the verge of exploding. He didn't because the teacher in charge of the lottery was watching them, and he couldn't afford to lose his temper.
After drawing lots, the three left the assessment area in an awkward atmosphere.
"Huo Yuhao!"
The moment he stepped out of the assessment area, Wang Dong roared in fury, then went all out, directly activating his Martial Soul and releasing the Winged Guillotine to slash at Huo Yuhao!
Huo Yuhao quickly gave Xiao Xiao a wink and immediately took off running!
The two men were running in front and chasing behind.
For some unknown reason, Huo Yuhao didn't use any of his soul skills. On the other hand, if Wang Dong hadn't been worried about the competition the next day, he probably would have used his second soul skill without hesitation.
Xiao Xiao remained standing there, somewhat bewildered, watching the two figures disappear into the distance. Her eyes were filled with confusion. "That's strange! Could it be that Wang Dong really likes Huo Yuhao? Aren't they both boys?"
