บท 9: Chapter 9: This Grudge, I'll Remember
"This teacher is really too crazy, making us wear such heavy iron vests to train our physiques. If she hadn't brought in a healing soul master to heal us afterward, I would have definitely gone to complain."
Wang Dong lay on the bed, exhausted. Although her body had been healed, her spirit was drained.
"If you're weak, you need more training. Besides, this kind of training is beneficial for us."
Huo Yuhao sat on his bed. Though he was indeed quite tired, it didn't stop him from acting cool.
Despite some dissatisfaction, Wang Dong couldn't help but acknowledge, "Training is good, but the iron vests are too heavy. I could barely breathe with them on."
Huo Yuhao was silent for a moment before saying, "Actually, that's a form of training too. Those iron vests are meant to help us practice bearing heavy weights. Soul Power can't directly change our bodies, but through training, we can make our bodies stronger. In future battles, we'll be able to endure enemy attacks more easily."
Wang Dong was stunned. She hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to think this way.
Originally, she thought Huo Yuhao was forced to train with the iron vests. Now it seemed she had misunderstood. Huo Yuhao was doing it willingly.
"But I feel like you really dislike Soul Tools."
Huo Yuhao glanced at Wang Dong. During the teacher's lecture on soul tools, she had an indifferent expression and even seemed distracted, with a hint of disdain in her eyes.
"It's not exactly dislike, just… a deep-seated aversion."
Wang Dong thought about it. She didn't know why she felt this way.
"It's definitely because of that Tang San."
Huo Yuhao inwardly complained. He knew Wang Dong had Tang San's spiritual imprint on her. What a great father, still influencing his child.
"Maybe it's because you feel Soul Tools are external aids, and you prefer relying on your own strength."
Huo Yuhao gave her a reason. He couldn't possibly say it was because of her troublesome dad's influence.
"Maybe."
Wang Dong rubbed her head. That seemed like the reason; otherwise, she had no idea why.
"By the way, what does your family do?"
Wang Dong asked curiously. Her two fathers had told her that achieving this level of cultivation at her age was incredible, but this guy could easily defeat her. Did he have an extraordinary background?
"I don't have any family."
As for his so-called relatives, Huo Yuhao considered them nonexistent. If he got stronger in the future, he would make them regret everything.
"Sorry!"
Wang Dong felt she had said something wrong but was also shocked. Someone without any cultivation resources was stronger than her. It was unbelievable.
"No need to apologize."
A trace of killing intent flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes. Relatives? He would make those so-called relatives feel despair.
Knock, knock!
"Little brother, your lovely master is here to see you. Open the door."
Someone knocked on the dorm door, and a familiar voice sounded.
"Who is it?"
Wang Dong became wary. The voice clearly belonged to a girl.
"My cheap master."
Huo Yuhao stood up and stretched.
"Master? Why does she sound so young?"
Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao suspiciously. Was he lying without thinking it through?
"Just a moment, coming."
Huo Yuhao got up to open the door, and Wang Dong followed.
When the door opened, a beautiful young girl stood at the entrance. She looked about fifteen, with a slender figure, fair skin, and slightly pink lips that formed a faint smile. It was Tang Ya.
"I missed you, little brother."
As soon as the door opened, Tang Ya hugged him.
"Sister Tang Ya, you're suffocating me."
Huo Yuhao felt his face being pressed against something soft, smothering him.
To be this well-endowed at her age, she had a promising future.
"Little brother, are you embarrassed?"
Tang Ya let go of Huo Yuhao and looked at Wang Dong.
"This your roommate? Introduce us!"
Wang Dong puffed up her cheeks, angrily clenching her fists. She felt like something that belonged to her had been taken.
"Wang Dong."
Before Huo Yuhao could introduce her, Wang Dong said her name and turned away, visibly upset.
Huo Yuhao felt a chill. Was he heading into a love triangle? But he still forced himself to ask:
"Sister Tang Ya, did you come to see me?"
Tang Ya's face fell, looking somewhat aggrieved.
"It's because of you, you ungrateful brother. So many days without seeking me out. I came to find you right after my assessment."
Tang Ya's voice was full of resentment, as if Huo Yuhao had abandoned her.
She didn't know why, but even though they hadn't known each other long, she often thought of Huo Yuhao and their first meeting…
"I've been busy lately…"
Huo Yuhao lied. He had just forgotten.
"I forgive you. After all, your teacher is that crazy old lady, Zhou Yi."
Tang Ya nodded, understanding since Zhou Yi's fierce reputation was well-known at Shrek Academy.
"Sister Tang Ya, what's the reason for your visit?"
Huo Yuhao coughed, quickly changing the topic.
"I have a way for you to earn money, and there's a great place to sell."
Huo Yuhao: …
Wang Dong: …
Tang Ya spoke excitedly, not noticing the black lines on their faces.
"Yuhao, I didn't expect you to be involved in something like this."
Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao in disbelief. To do such a thing at this age was outrageous.
"Sister Tang Ya, can you explain clearly? Your words are misleading."
Huo Yuhao facepalmed. Her words made it easy for people to misunderstand.
"There are many vendors at the academy entrance. With your grilling skills, you could make a lot of money."
Tang Ya had no other choice. She didn't have much money, and even Huo Yuhao's tuition was paid by Bei Bei.
She could only give Huo Yuhao a way to make money. The main reason was she wanted to eat grilled fish. She could use her identity as his master to eat without worry.
Two words: Perfect!
"Sister Tang Ya, please be clearer next time. Otherwise, people with dirty minds might misunderstand."
Huo Yuhao glanced at Wang Dong, making his point clear.
"What kind of look is that?"
Wang Dong was almost furious. They were the ones talking ambiguously. How could he blame her for misunderstanding?
"Alright, I haven't had much money lately."
Huo Yuhao had another motive. Making money was one thing, but mainly he wanted to encounter…
"I've prepared all the tools for grilling fish."
Tang Ya had everything ready and pulled Huo Yuhao excitedly out the door.
"…"
Wang Dong felt speechless. Was she just a third wheel?
"This grudge, I'll remember."
