Chapter 57

In the secret room, the woman in red was none other than the fire-type Sixth Rank Soul Emperor who had almost brought about the downfall of Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong. If she really was around twenty years old as she appeared, then her talent could no longer be simply described as astonishing.

A Soul Emperor at twenty years old, this would rank at the top in the entire history of the Soul Masters since their appearance on the Douluo Continent. It could even be compared to the first generation of the Shrek Seven Monsters at Shrek Academy.

The aged voice belonged to the old man in white who had brought her back here. Upon hearing his question, the woman in red, called Xiaotao, shook her head somewhat blankly, "I don't remember. I only remember everything turning red, and then it seemed like some fatal threat appeared. I fought back, and after that, I returned here, just like now."

The old man in white frowned as he came to her, speaking in a deep voice, "How could you not tell me that the evil fire within you couldn't be suppressed? Do you know how close you were to causing a major disaster? Two outer academy students almost died from your evil fire."

Xiaotao was stunned, "I, I didn't know it would be so serious. I thought I could control it. But..."

The old man in white sighed deeply, "The longer it is suppressed, the more intense the outbreak will be. Xiaotao, from now on, you must suspend your cultivation. Although you are the first genius in Shrek Academy in hundreds of years, we cannot let you be destroyed for the sake of the academy. If the evil fire destroys your sanity next time, your teacher will regret it for life."

Xiaotao said stubbornly, "No, teacher, I want to cultivate. I promise, it won't happen again. I can feel that the evil and heat of the evil fire have been completely suppressed. It definitely won't be a problem in the short term. But, what kind of power could suppress my Phoenix Evil Fire?"

The old man in white pondered, "It was an extremely pure ice attribute, an extremely cold force. Its purity far exceeds your Phoenix Evil Fire, somewhat like the Absolute Ice Breath of an ancient ice dragon. This completely suppressed the influence of the Phoenix Evil Fire on your body, even better than any method we have used."

Xiaotao asked in confusion, "But, there can't be an ancient ice dragon! And it certainly wouldn't be in our academy. Could someone have infiltrated the academy?"

The old man in white shook his head, "I have already had someone investigate. I originally thought it might be someone sent by the families of those two students to protect them. But after the investigation, there was no such possibility. One of the students is called Wang Dong, the other is Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao is a special student of the Tang Sect. I asked Beibei, and he and Tang Ya met and brought him back from the Star Dou Great Forest. His talent is average, and he is an orphan. There definitely wouldn't be a strong protector with him. As for Wang Dong, he has a significant background, but his background is not specialized in ice-type soul powers. As for the academy, I have investigated many times. There are many students and teachers with ice-type soul powers, but none with such an extreme ice attribute. It's truly strange."

Xiaotao said, "Teacher, forget it. Don't investigate anymore."

The old man in white said, "This concerns your future. How can I not be anxious? If we can find a male with an extreme ice attribute soul power, and make him your partner, it could resolve the negative effects of the evil fire Phoenix soul power in your body. Only then can you truly soar in the future. Now, you are completely constrained. Not only has your cultivation speed decreased, but it even endangers your life."

Xiaotao's face turned red, "I don't want to get married, and I certainly don't want to marry someone I don't like for the sake of a soul power."

The old man in white sighed, "The problem is that the evil fire can't be suppressed!"

Xiaotao huffed, "I will suppress it, and I won't get married."

The old man in white angrily said, "Ma Xiaotao, if you keep being so stubborn, I won't recognize you as my disciple."

Seeing the old man in white angry, Ma Xiaotao became much more obedient, saying in a pitiful voice, "But, teacher, I..."

The old man in white patted her head, "Silly girl, feelings can be cultivated, but life only has one chance. Besides, you are so outstanding. No matter what, your teacher will find you a good home."

...

"NN, I bought you the roasted fish from that boy yesterday. Don't worry, I didn't use any violent means. I waited in line to buy it," Xu Sanshi said with a fawning face, blocking Jiang Nannan who was about to go to the cafeteria.

Jiang Nannan shook her head, "No need, thank you."

Xu Sanshi tentatively asked, "Do you think I was too violent yesterday? Actually, I'm not usually like that. It's just because of you... Nannan, I know you still have a grudge over what happened before. But, isn't it also a kind of fate that we met again at Shrek Academy? I really like you, and I promise to be faithful to you."

Jiang Nannan said coldly, "I remember I told you that after that meeting, we would each go our separate ways. There is no possibility of any intersection between us. Xu Sanshi, you are a high-ranking noble, why make things difficult for a little girl like me? I can't give you anything. Please don't interfere with my life in the future, otherwise, I will report to the academy. And please don't bully other students because of me."

After saying this, she turned to leave, but was blocked by Xu Sanshi, who said angrily, "I bully other students? Do you know how much I was bullied by Beibei? That roasted fish was his junior, and he tricked me into giving him two Xuan Shui Pills. Tang Ya even gave me a Dragon Whisker Needle, and now my waist is still bruised. What's wrong with me? You just won't give me a chance."

Jiang Nannan said coldly, "You went to that kind of place at such a young age, what's good about you?" She turned and left, this time directly leaping up. Three yellow soul rings flickered on her body, and her ears seemed to grow longer and stand up, but her figure also became more slender. With a slight effort from her long legs, she flashed ten meters away and quickly left without looking back.

Watching her back, Xu Sanshi was dazed for a moment, then viciously bit into the roasted fish in his hand, "Xu Sanshi, you're really useless. What's so great about it, I'll eat it myself. Hey, this roasted fish really tastes good."
