Xiao Hongchen put away the soul guide cannon and martial soul, took a long breath, and felt that the anger in his heart had subsided a lot.
"What are you doing? Why are there signs of fighting in the lab?"
At this moment, Xuan Ziwen's voice sounded, and he and Ju Zi appeared in the laboratory.
Xuan Ziwen looked at Wang Shaojie lying on the ground, hurried over to check his injuries, and asked, "What happened?"
He was originally doing research in another laboratory with Orange, when he suddenly heard the alarm in the third laboratory and rushed back immediately.
But when he came back, he saw Wang Shaojie who was seriously injured.
Although he usually disliked student Wang Shaojie, he was a member of the royal family after all, and he would not be able to explain if anything went wrong.
Xiao Hongchen said coldly: "I did it. I held back. It's not too late to send him for treatment now."
Xuan Ziwen raised his head and looked at Xiao Hongchen: "You are..."
Juzi recognized him with a surprised look on her face: "Are you Xiao Hongchen?"
Xiao Hongchen nodded proudly.
After learning of Xiao Hongchen's identity, Xuan Ziwen seemed to relax a little. He said a few words to the other people and took the unconscious Wang Shaojie to receive treatment.
After Xuan Ziwen left, Ju Zi asked Xiao Hongchen, "Did you know that he is a member of the royal family?"
"It's true?" Xiao Hongchen frowned slightly, "Does he have a high status in the royal family?"
Juzi shook her head: "Wang Shaojie is not, but his cousin Xu Mochen is the captain of the Royal Patrol Team and a supporter of the Third Prince."
"You are making enemies with him today. Does this mean that the Hongchen Family is drawing a clear line between itself and the Third Prince?"
After Xiao Hongchen thought about it, he said coldly: "Our Hongchen family will not be involved with any prince for the time being. Today's matter is just a personal grudge between me, Xiao Hongchen, and this Wang Shaojie."
"If he wants revenge, I will always be there for him."
Hearing Xiao Hongchen's statement, a hint of imperceptible joy seemed to flash in Juzi's eyes.
Huo Yuhao listened quietly in the corner. Just a few short sentences were enough to reveal a lot of important information.
Xiao Hongchen calmed down his emotions, looked at Huo Yuhao, and said proudly: "Huo Yuhao, did you see that? This is my strength."
"I was far from showing that in the last Fighting Spirit Tournament."
"Now that we have met in Sun and Moon, do you dare to go to the trial field with me to compete again?"
As he spoke, he looked at Huo Yuhao provocatively.
Huo Yuhao fell silent.
The trouble of Xiao Hongchen is much more difficult to solve than that of Wang Shaojie. Even swallowing one's anger cannot get rid of it.
He narrowed his eyes and asked calmly, "What if I say no?"
Xiao Hongchen said coldly: "If you refuse, then I will ask Grandpa to expel you from the academy, and you will never be able to set foot in the academy again."
"I always feel that you have some unspeakable secret in coming to our Sun Moon Empire."
Huo Yuhao chuckled and raised his hands in surrender, saying, "Okay, I want to steal all the soul guide technology of the Sun Moon Empire. Is this considered a secret?"
Xiao Hongchen said disdainfully: "I don't care what your purpose is, but as long as you fight me with all your strength, I will trample you hard under my feet."
"I can give you something you want."
Huo Yuhao was silent for a while, then he stood up, shrugged, and said helplessly: "It seems that I have no choice?"
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Xiao Hongchen nodded with satisfaction and left the laboratory with Huo Yuhao.
Orange looked at the two people leaving with a cold expression, as if he was planning something.
Chapter 203: Battle against Xiao Hongchen (Part )
Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, Soul Guidance Device Trial Ground.
This is the place for students to undergo practical assessments. It is the largest building in the academy, large enough to accommodate 10,000 people at the same time.
At this moment, in the preparation room, Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen were both preparing. Apart from the two people who were about to fight, there were not many onlookers.
Xiao Hongchen's sister, Meng Hongchen, was looking at Huo Yuhao in surprise. "Ah, it's him. Why did he come to our Sun and Moon? Aren't the exchange students from Shrek Academy going to arrive in a year?"
Xiao Hongchen smiled and looked at Huo Yuhao who was sitting not far away, and said: "Haha, he said that he has dropped out of Shrek Academy and wants to stay in our Sun Moon to learn soul guides, but who knows his real purpose?"
Meng Hongchen looked at Xiao Hongchen with some disdain: "Brother, I know that you are dissatisfied with Shrek Academy, but I remember that Huo Yuhao is the one with the lowest cultivation level. He was only at the second ring a year ago, and this year he is at most at the third ring. Are you trying to bully the weak with your power?"
Xiao Hongchen frowned: "Do you really think he is an ordinary second ring? It was him who defeated us in the team battle in the finals."
"Humph, I remember that he was so powerful because he used the martial soul fusion technique, and that person..."
As he spoke, that handsome and moving figure appeared in Meng Hongchen's mind again, and his eyes curved with joy.
"Is that man called Wang Dong? He's really good-looking. I wonder if I can see him again in the future."
Xiao Hongchen: "..."
Seeing his sister falling into infatuation again, he felt puzzled.
What is the charm of Wang Dong that makes Meng Hongchen unable to forget him just by meeting him a few times on the field.
Huo Yuhao sat not far away, thinking with his head down.
He didn't pay much attention to the conversation between the Hongchen brothers and sisters, but when he heard that Shrek Academy would send exchange students a year later, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
He was thinking about how to deal with the battle with Xiao Hongchen.
In fact, there was no conflict between Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen, and all their previous conflicts were caused by the Soul Fighting Competition.
Not only that, he subconsciously thought that Xiao Hongchen was worth winning over.
Because Xiao Hongchen is Jing Hongchen's most beloved grandson, if he can get along well with him, maybe he can gain Jing Hongchen's further trust.
From the few words that Orange said yesterday, he learned that the Hongchen family does not belong to any faction of the princes, which revealed an important information to Huo Yuhao.
He had a hunch that this would allow the Hongchen family to play a very important role.
But Huo Yuhao is not the kind of person who flatters and fawns. He prefers the emotions and trust that are gradually cultivated in the process of exchanging interests.
If Xiao Hongchen hadn't insisted on fighting him, he wouldn't have wanted to come at all.
Laughing at the world is a trouble, but there are opportunities hidden in trouble.
What should I do? Should I really give it my all, or just be an actor for the sake of it?
Just as Huo Yuhao was thinking, a pressure came to the preparation room.
Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen quickly stood up and said respectfully, "Grandpa."
Huo Yuhao also bowed and said, “Greetings, Hall Master.”
Jing Hongchen smiled and said, "Haha, Huo Yuhao, I heard that you were going to have a private battle with my grandson, so I came here to watch."
“I hope you can all give it your all and learn from each other.”
Xiao Hongchen and Huo Yuhao said at the same time: “Yes, Grandpa (Hall Master).”
Huo Yuhao secretly complained in his heart.
The polite words were spoken nicely, but if he really hurt Xiao Hongchen, who knew how this old toad would react.
Jing Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao and said, "You must have learned a lot of spirit master theories in Shrek Academy before. I hope that with this opportunity, you can help me see if there is any room for improvement in Xiao."
Xiao Hongchen said proudly: "Grandpa, I don't need it at all."
Huo Yuhao also smiled and said, “Master, I am only at the third ring now, how could I possibly be a match for your grandson?”
Jing Hongchen narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I have already told Lin Jiayi to clear the field. There will be no outsiders watching your fight today. This hall master will be your referee personally."
"I have taken time out of my busy schedule to be your referee, so you can just go ahead and do what you want."
Huo Yuhao was slightly stunned. He didn’t expect Jing Hongchen to take this battle so seriously.
He suspected that Jing Hongchen wanted to take this opportunity to test his background again.
After a moment of silence, he calmly replied, "Okay, Master. I understand."
Jing Hongchen nodded and said, "Go on stage."
Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen walked out of the preparation room and headed towards the waiting area.
Today was not the day for the practical assessment, so there were not many students. The area around them had been cleared, and the huge auditorium looked empty.
There were only a few people watching the game here.
There were more than a hundred meters between the two of them, but Huo Yuhao could still clearly see the proud smile on the other's face.
He shook his head, then adjusted his gaze and responded with the same confident and ostentatious grin.
He has made his decision.
This battle must reveal some abilities appropriately.
Because Jing Hongchen was watching right above, if I wanted to gain his full trust, I couldn't hide my abilities too much.
The more information I revealed, the less wary Jing Hongchen would be of me.
And Huo Yuhao can't just let it go.
Although his current soul power is only level 38, his overall strength has surpassed that of an ordinary soul king.
But it is obvious that Xiao Hongchen is not an ordinary Soul King. If you hide anything in front of him, you might suffer a great loss.
What's more, he hasn't had actual combat experience for a long time, so this is a perfect opportunity.
Then just give it a try, since that old toad Jing Hongchen is watching over you.
Jing Hongchen's voice came slowly from the air:
"Game start."
Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen lit up their soul rings at the same time.
The 128 soul guide cannons extended from Xiao Hongchen's side and aimed at Huo Yuhao.
Previously in the laboratory, these level five soul guide cannons were stacked together due to the limited space, and no one thought there was anything wrong.
Now, they have arrived at the vast soul guide trial field. These soul guide cannons are fully deployed like a matrix, and their momentum appears magnificent.
