Chapter 77 Gu Yue: Go ahead and do it, Yu Hao
Chapter 77 Gu Yue: Go ahead and do it, Yu Hao
Book lovers are all in the discussion area, chatting about the charm of fantasy novels.
Upon hearing this, Xie Xie subconsciously pointed to himself, then to Gu Yue, Tang Wulin, and Xu Xiaoyan beside him.
Then, unable to contain himself, he raised his voice to confirm, "We? You mean... all of us?!"
Huo Yuhao's gaze swept calmly over them, and he said in a flat tone, "There's no one else here but you."
Xie Xie was speechless. Although he had been shouting excitedly before, after witnessing the overwhelming performance of the Shrek Academy youth team, he had to admit that the opponent was really strong!
Their fluid teamwork and combat skills far exceeding their cultivation level... all put him under immense pressure.
Among these people, perhaps only Gu Yue and Huo Yuhao are qualified to go toe-to-toe with the other party.
As for himself... Xie Xie was very self-aware; facing a team of that caliber, he probably wouldn't be able to make much of a difference.
Wu Changkong did not immediately respond to Huo Yuhao's sudden request.
His icy blue eyes became even more profound, as if he were seriously pondering the matter.
After a moment, Wu Changkong finally raised his eyelids, his gaze refocusing on Huo Yuhao, his voice devoid of emotion: "How do you want to fight?"
Huo Yuhao had already made up his mind, and without hesitation, he said, "Just like today's exhibition match!"
His gaze swept over the arena erected in the center of the stadium: "Right here, let's have a five-person team battle!"
Wu Changkong pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head.
"If it's a private sparring match or a challenge, given my relationship with Shen Yi, I might be able to arrange it."
His voice was steady as he analyzed the situation: "But if we want to have a public duel here, on the official grounds of the Tianhai Alliance Grand Tournament... I'm afraid that's not possible."
He pointed to the large and formal stadium facilities around him, as well as the staff who had not yet completely dispersed.
"This is the venue for the official competitions held by the Tianhai Alliance. All the schedules, times, and even the use of the venue are strictly planned and managed."
"Joining a match temporarily, especially one involving a specially invited team like Shrek Academy, is not something that can be easily achieved simply by both sides agreeing."
Upon hearing this, a look of understanding flashed across Huo Yuhao's eyes, and he had already grasped the "pain point" of the matter.
So he nodded and didn't persist or dwell on it any longer, as if the idea was just a passing fancy and he had completely let it go.
The excitement of the exhibition match gradually faded, and the opening ceremony officially came to a close.
Under the guidance of their teachers, the participating teams from each college began to leave the venue in an orderly manner and return to their hotels to rest and recuperate for the various events of the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition, which officially begins tomorrow.
At night, the sea breeze, carrying a slightly salty scent, blew against the hotel windows.
Shortly after dinner, the other four members of Class Zero were summoned to Huo Yuhao's hotel room.
The room was small, and it felt a bit crowded with five people gathered together, but the atmosphere became inexplicably solemn.
Gu Yue's calm black eyes swept over Huo Yuhao's composed yet determined face, and then looked at the other people who had been summoned. She already understood.
She spoke first, her voice cold and clear: "You haven't given up yet? Or do you still want to... fight Shrek Academy?"
Facing the puzzled or curious gazes of the crowd, Huo Yuhao slowly nodded.
He and Shrek Academy can be considered "old friends".
The arrogant and domineering Shrek teachers and students I encountered in Wanxing City, who disregarded the rules of the Spirit Transmission Tower.
Ten thousand years ago, Fan Yu, who threatened others in the soul tool shop in Shrek City, relied on his status as an eighth-level soul master.
Then, during the daytime today, there was that arrogant and sarcastic Ye Xinglan!
The impressions Huo Yuhao had of these people from Shrek Academy were almost entirely associated with words like "arrogant," "bullying," and "high and mighty."
The stifling and humiliating feeling he got from them was like tiny grains of sand, constantly accumulating in Huo Yuhao's heart.
Ye Xinglan's seemingly righteous but actually unreasonable behavior today was like the last straw, pushing his patience to its limit.
He didn't want to continue feeling so "suffocated" anymore!
He wanted to retaliate, to give Shrek Academy's arrogant "face" a good slap!
That's why he proposed to Wu Changkong that they have an open and fair match against Shrek Academy at the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition!
Huo Yuhao's gaze swept over his classmates, with whom he spent every day, and he asked, "Don't you think Shrek Academy's behavior today was excessive? Don't you... want to get revenge?"
"Of course I want to!"
To Huo Yuhao's surprise, the first to speak up was Xu Xiaoyan, her face showing indignation.
However, under the spotlight, she seemed a little embarrassed, lowered her voice, and avoided eye contact.
"But...but we're too weak."
"In team battles, I'm afraid I won't be able to help, and I might even hold everyone back."
"It would be better if...it would be better if you fought them one-on-one."
Although Tang Wulin and Xie Xie did not speak, they both nodded, a hint of helplessness and regret flashing in their eyes.
They clearly agreed with Xu Xiaoyan's words, feeling that their participation in the war would be a hindrance.
Huo Yuhao looked at their unwilling and lacking-confidence expressions, but a confident smile appeared on his face.
"Who said you can't help?"
His words startled everyone, and they all turned to look at him.
"As long as we cooperate well and our tactics are reasonable, everyone can bring out their own strengths."
"At that time, everyone will definitely have their own highlight moment in the competition!"
He glanced around, leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice, and said, "We'll do it like this..."
After hearing Huo Yuhao's battle plan and tactical ideas, the group's eyes lit up, and their previous hesitation and concerns were replaced by an excited anticipation.
Huo Yuhao's plan was not a wild idea, but rather based on an in-depth analysis of each person's martial soul characteristics, ability limits, and the possibility of teamwork.
The tactics were ingeniously conceived and interconnected, ensuring that everyone played a key role.
This means that if this showdown can really happen, it will not be Huo Yuhao's "solo show" but a team victory where all five members of Class Zero work together and each gives full play to their strengths!
Xie Xie was the first to get restless. He slapped his thigh and tried to put on a serious expression that said "this is of great importance and I have an inescapable duty," but the light in his eyes betrayed his excitement.
"Let's do it! After hearing what Yuhao said, it seems this duel... is a must! It would be a shame not to fight, given how much we've been holding back!"
Tang Wulin's eyes were also filled with eager fighting spirit, but he quickly thought of the practical problem and asked, "But Teacher Wu also said that it is almost impossible to have a public duel on an official venue. The organizers will not agree to it."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao revealed a mysterious smile and slowly said, "It's all about human effort. Rules are rigid, but people are flexible."
He looked at his partners and said, "If you all agree and are willing to work together to seize this opportunity, then... watch me tomorrow!"
"Of course I agree!"
Xu Xiaoyan almost immediately answered again, waving her little fist: "I've disliked those Shrek students for a long time!"
Xie Xie and Tang Wulin exchanged a glance, and almost simultaneously said, "We agree too!"
Finally, everyone's eyes fell on Gu Yue.
She didn't immediately express her opinion, but met Huo Yuhao's gaze, and in those dark eyes, as if some kind of power was flowing.
After a moment, she spoke softly, "Go ahead and do it, Yuhao."
"No matter the outcome, no matter what the process is like, I will... support you."
