"The freshman assessment is still too simple for them."
Xuan Zi shook his head. Even he could see that the freshman assessment was just a formality for Huo Yuhao and Hua Huo. How could the other elders not see it?
"Next semester, we'll be selecting substitute team members. At that time..."
Xuan Zi didn't finish his sentence, but everyone immediately understood and nodded.
Perhaps only that chaotic battle could reveal a bit of Huo Yuhao and Hua Huo's true strength.
As Huo Yuhao and Hua Huo's first round of the first assessment ended, the group of elders also left Area 33.
Some of the elders were very busy, and it was not easy for them to spare time to watch the two's "child's play."
Otherwise, why was Hua Huo's team the first to take the stage among the six teams?
Huo Yuhao, Hua Huo, and Nanmen Yun'er didn't linger in the competition area. After their match ended, they left directly.
What was there to see in a battle between one-ring soul masters?
At the very least, it would take the combat power of a Pathstrider to make Huo Yuhao and Hua Huo stop and watch.
Meanwhile, in a remote vegetable garden, a middle-aged man was bent over, harvesting greens.
"Another beautiful day."
"Such a life is truly comfortable."
"If only Ah Yin could finish devouring the plane consciousness faster. Without her, life is a bit dull."
The "middle-aged man" was none other than Tang Hao, Ah Yin's husband and Tang San's father.
Following Tang San's "suggestion," he and Ah Yin had returned to the Douluo Continent and had been living here, growing vegetables and raising flowers. Life was indeed comfortable.
Once Ah Yin succeeded, Tang Hao would become the ruler of the Douluo Continent!
At that moment, Tang Hao's body trembled, his pupils contracted, and the sickle and greens in his hands fell to the ground.
"What!?"
Tang Hao was shocked, and in an instant, he disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in the God Realm!
At the Sea God's Mansion, Tang Hao looked at Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong, his emotions relatively stable.
But when he saw Ma Hongjun, the corner of his eye twitched, and his right hand trembled slightly!
He almost summoned the Clear Sky Hammer to give this "fatty" a few smashes!
"Father, that's how things are."
Tang San's face was no longer filled with anger, appearing very calm.
The incident had already happened, and he had already spoken about the path to death. How could he still be angry now?
If anger worked, what was the point of strategy?
He would definitely think of every possible way to surpass Aha, and then...
"San, is there really no way at all?"
Tang Hao's emotions were unstable, and his entire body was trembling.
So much time had passed, and he had known nothing about it!
Hearing this, Tang San shook his head. He truly had no solution.
The souls of the several individuals were like ingredients, all stewed into a soup... no, more like mashed into a paste, mixed together.
Unless one's strength was equivalent to or surpassed Aha's, there was no way to resolve this issue.
"Father, I have no solution for now either."
Seeing this, Tang Hao sat down on the ground.
Even Tang San, a God King, had no solution. What could he, a mere God Official, do?
As for revenge, the enemy was so strong it was despairing!
At this moment, it felt like he was back in the days when he was being hunted by Qian Xunji. Faced with the behemoth that was the Spirit Hall, Tang Hao could only barely survive.
No, things were different now!
As if he had thought of something, Tang Hao stood up and hugged Tang San, saying, "Good son, you must save your mother, no matter what it takes!"
Yes, he still had Tang San as his son, so there was still hope.
As for the ten-thousand-year plan, once this matter was resolved, the ten-thousand-year plan would no longer matter.
Tang San was stunned, and for a moment, it felt like he was back at the time of his martial soul awakening after his rebirth.
When Tang Hao found out he had twin martial souls, Tang Hao had hugged him just like this.
Tang San said with determination, "Don't worry, Father! I will definitely save Mother!"
Not just for Ah Yin, but also for Xiao Wu!
Seeing this, Xiao Wu, Ah Yin, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun were all deeply moved.
Every time they were in dire straits, Tang San would always step up and turn the tide. Such a Tang San made them trust him unconditionally.
"San, you can definitely defeat that evil god!"
"Yes, Brother San, Mother is right, you can do it!"
Hearing this, Tang San and Tang Hao rolled their eyes, because these words had come from Ma Hongjun's mouth.
Their fists were clenched!
The father and son exchanged a glance, ultimately sighing in resignation.
From Ma Hongjun's behavior, it seemed that the soul he had fused with had a greater proportion than Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.
In terms of combat power alone, Ma Hongjun was the strongest among the original Shrek Seven Monsters, second only to Tang San. His current behavior could only mean that he had fused with more of the soul.
This was also why Tang San hadn't attacked Ma Hongjun, he was afraid of harming his Xiao Wu... or rather, his mother.
"Father, I need to focus on planning some things now. As for Xiao Qi, please take care of her for me."
Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Tang San continued, "I've chosen a husband for Xiao Qi. This young man's talent is no less than mine was back then, and he is also the new Child of Fortune of the Douluo Continent."
"He is a descendant of Xiao Bai and Zhu Zhuqing, so he is a good match for Xiao Qi."
As soon as Tang San said this, everyone was slightly stunned, a bit confused.
Xiao Qi was only a few years old... no, one day in the God Realm was a year in the Douluo Continent.
Xiao Qi had been in the mortal world for several days, so she had grown up.
As for Tang San's words, no one had any objections. Parents' orders and matchmakers' words were the way.
This new Child of Fortune was indeed a good match for Xiao Qi.
Tang Hao thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
As for a granddaughter... well, if it could bring Tang San a "protector," it wasn't bad.
From the original timeline, Tang Hao and Tang San shared similar thoughts—they valued sons over daughters.
In the original timeline, Tang Hao had been on the Douluo Continent but had never shown concern for this granddaughter.
As for Tang Wulin, he had the Seed of Life...
Throughout Tang Wulin's growth, he had never faced any real danger. Once it involved life... Tang Hao: I will intervene!
"San, I've seen this Child of Fortune. He... he seems to have a girlfriend."
"Ah Yin" spoke up.
Huo Yuhao and Hua Huo had visited the Sea God Pavilion. Although she had been devouring the plane consciousness at the time, she had still seen Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao's aura of destiny was too strong. The plane consciousness had almost placed all its "bets" on him, making a final struggle and resistance.
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed. Xiao Qi was Tang San's precious daughter. How could she like a man who was already taken?
"This brat, so young and not focusing on cultivation, what's with the romance? I'll go kill his girlfriend!"
Tang Hao shouted, ready to get up.
Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong: "..."
There was something they wanted to say but weren't sure if they should...
