"I...I have nothing to say to you!" Huo
Wu shouted.
Her pale face was filled with resentment, and she bit her red lips tightly as she looked at Ye Qiu and the other women.
"Alright, little sister, we still have to fight against the Tianshui Academy team later. You should go and rest."
Huo Wushuang didn't know exactly what had happened.
But now was clearly not the time to fight Ye Qiu and the others head-on. The opposing team's leader was definitely very strong.
They would see each other again on the field in the future.
Hearing Huo Wushuang's words, Ye Qiu was speechless. Huo Wu must have suffered some internal injuries.
Liu Erlong's Fire Dragon Martial Soul was already extremely powerful, and even its pressure was something that the delicate Huo Wu couldn't withstand without preparation.
This injury might affect her performance in the competition.
Then there would be more stalemate.
Ye Qiu opened his mouth, about to say something.
Zhu Zhuqing's soft voice came from beside them:
"Husband, it's your turn. Let's finish the match first."
"Mm."
Ye Qiu nodded slightly, leading the women past the Blazing Fire Academy team and others.
They arrived at Huo Wu's side.
Ye Qiu placed his hand on her shoulder.
"What are you doing?!"
Huo Wushuang looked at Ye Qiu warily, her muscles tense and her soul power surging.
"Let go of me!"
Huo Wu tried to shake him off, but felt a warm current flow into her body, and smelled a refreshing fragrance. She couldn't help but sniff it.
Her pale face instantly regained its rosy hue.
She remembered the gossip Feng Xiaotian had told her. Ye Qiu really did smell good!
"Consider this an apology for last time,"
Ye Qiu said softly.
He led the women towards the central arena.
The fragrance faded, but Huo Wu chased after it, sniffing it twice, her face instantly regaining a radiant color.
At the same time,
Ye Qiu mentioned last time.
It was during the time Ye Qiu almost ruined her breasts that her face flushed even more.
Anger, shyness, curiosity, and resentment filled her burning heart.
As if possessed, she snapped at Ye Qiu,
"Ye Qiu! You just wait!"
"Don't think you're so great just because you beat me once. I'll get my revenge sooner or later!"
"I'm not done with you today!"
After shouting at Ye Qiu, her anger subsided considerably, and she regained her composure.
Their next opponent was Tianshui Academy; they needed to carefully plan their tactics.
"Brother, let's go back!"
She glanced at Liu Erlong, Jiangzhu, and Zhu Zhuqing, who remained in the rest area, and pulled Huo Wushuang back.
Listening to the surrounding gossip,
her face remained flushed, anger outweighing her embarrassment.
These bastards had no real strength, but when they went on a gossip spree, they were so outrageous.
When did she confess her love to Ye Qiu and get rejected? When were those women calling her a homewrecker? That's utter nonsense!
The more Huo Wu heard, the more she wanted to grab Ye Qiu and smash his stinky face!
The Divine Wind Team, led by Feng Xiaotian, approached. As usual, he, relying on hearsay, didn't read the room.
"Sister Huo Wu, I heard you confessed your love. How did it go? Did you succeed?"
As he spoke,
his eyes held a hint of expectation, whether he hoped Huo Wu's wish would come true or that she would be rejected so he could regroup and compete fairly with Ye Qiu.
"Feng Xiaotian, you jerk! If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
Huo Wu, enraged, raised her leg to kick him in the waist.
"Ouch! Sister Huo Wu, I'm still injured."
Feng Xiaotian's wings were broken yesterday, and although Ye Qiu treated him for a while, he hadn't fully recovered yet.
" ...
You rascal, looks like you've stirred up another woman."
Ning Rongrong glared resentfully at Ye Qiu, hearing Huo Wu's shrill shouts behind her.
"I really didn't do anything this time!"
Ye Qiu helplessly shrugged.
He hadn't even touched Huo Wu much; including the healing earlier, he seemed to have only touched her twice.
And once, he grabbed her a little too hard.
"I wonder if we've backfired."
Bai Chenxiang pinched her twin ponytails.
Huo Wu's anger seemed to have been provoked by them.
"Possibly."
Ye Lingling, veiled in a light gauze, nodded slightly. Though she rarely spoke, her keen observation
made her certain that Huo Wu definitely had feelings for Ye Qiu.
After all, she was good-looking, strong, and just so unreasonable—it was hard to dislike her.
At least, that's what she thought.
And then they provoked Huo Wu's anger, pushing her towards Ye Qiu.
Thinking more about it made the possibility of sparks flying higher.
"Who cares? We just did what wives should do."
Dugu Yan said nonchalantly, arm in arm with Ye Lingling.
"Yes, yes, we did what wives should do!"
Xiao Lan nodded happily, having coveted this position for a long time!
"Heh,"
Ye Qiu chuckled, tapping Xiao Lan's head.
"Xiao Qiu, let's not talk about her anymore. Let's talk about who should go on stage next!"
Xiao Wu bounced around Ye Qiu's side, itching to play.
"I'll do it again this time,"
Ye Qiu said with a light laugh.
"Ah? It's you again? But you played for so long yesterday. Why don't you rest and let Xiao Wu take over?"
Xiao Wu pitifully held Ye Qiu's hand, her round, large, rosy eyes blinking brightly.
"Xiao Lan is fine too!"
Xiao Lan raised her hand, speaking in a coquettish voice.
"I'm not tired. I'll do it this time. I don't trust you guys."
The explosive power and destructive force of lightning were simply too strong.
Ye Qiu was reluctant to let the girls go on stage, even if their hair was curled from the heat, he would still feel sorry for them.
Besides, he vaguely remembered that in the original story, Xiao Wu seemed to have been injured during the promotion match against the Thunder Academy team.
"Also, this Soul Master Competition is really boring, so let's complete the solo achievement, that would give us some sense of accomplishment."
Ye Qiu smiled slightly.
With the enhancement of skills like the Mysterious Heaven Technique, the girls' strength was sufficient to solo a team of seven Soul Masters or one Soul Sect and six Soul Masters, but the energy expenditure would be too great.
As for the team with four Soul Sects and three Soul Masters,
Ye Qiu himself would have to go.
"Alright then, Xiao Qiu, be careful."
Xiao Wu didn't insist anymore; this was only the fourteenth match, and there would be many more opportunities later.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd,
the Blue Tyrant Academy team and the Thunder Academy team stepped onto the central arena one after the other. Although the outcome
of this battle
was not in suspense,
don't forget that the Thunder Academy team's forte was lightning.
Compared to other elemental Soul Masters,
those with the Lightning attribute are the most dazzling and eye-catching in battle, and the crackling sounds are quite delightful.
