Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: I'm Angry Now!

"Don't worry, Senior Sister, your golden dragonfish is cooked just right now!"

Although Huo Yuhao was a bit out of breath at the moment, his soul power wasn't depleted too much. With the flickering light in his eyes, the flames in the nearby grill kept swaying.

"Excellent fire control technique!" Beibei lightly applauded, walking over with a smile. "Facing Xu Sanshi in a battle and still being able to multitask, managing the intensity of the flames in the grill. Yuhao, your talent is truly surprising."

Outsiders watch the excitement, while insiders observe the intricacies. Beibei's quick wit allowed him to see that Huo Yuhao was using his soul power and mental strength to control the flames in the grill, ensuring the perfect cooking of everything.

However, during the recent battle between Huo Yuhao and Xu Sanshi, the flames in the grill were still adjusting the cooking temperature on their own. Some of the meat skewers that were already cooked even had their flames extinguished.

This indicated that while dealing with Xu Sanshi's attacks, Huo Yuhao still had some attention focused on the grilling.

Facing an opponent with stronger cultivation daring to multitask, one couldn't decide whether to call Huo Yuhao arrogant or bold.

"Tang Ya, don't think that with Beibei protecting you, I can't do anything to you." With a low growl, Xu Sanshi's eyes shot flames.

Tang Ya sneered, "Bring it on! Do you think I'm afraid of you? If you dare to delay my feast again, I'll make you taste this!"

With a slight wave of her slender palm, Tang Ya's fingertips flashed with several golden lights.

Seeing these shimmering golden lights, Xu Sanshi's expression changed, but still unwilling to lose face, he stiffened his neck and said, "He's not giving Jiang Nannan face, which means he's not giving me face either. It's just two grilled fish, and I've already paid."

Huo Yuhao calmly distributed the grilled skewers and various vegetables to the seniors and sisters who had already paid, then extinguished the flames under the grilling king, the golden dragonfish, and continued to roast the fish over the residual heat of the charcoal.

Hearing Xu Sanshi's words, he coldly snorted, picked up the bag Xu Sanshi had thrown earlier, and pointed to the shallow pit on the metal table of the grilling cart underneath the bag, saying, "You did pay indeed, but you damaged my grilling cart. Moreover, those two grilled fish just now didn't belong to you; there were many people in line ahead of you."

"Kid, how dare you speak to me like this? Do you want to die?!" Xu Sanshi roared angrily.

"If you had the ability, I would be lying on the ground by now." Huo Yuhao chuckled and said, "You're just taking advantage of your age. If we were in the same grade, you wouldn't last three moves against me!"

"What did you say?!" Xu Sanshi roared angrily, about to strike again. But Huo Yuhao was calm and unafraid, staring coldly at him.

Tang Ya stomped her foot and said loudly, "Xu Sanshi, if my precious golden dragonfish gets a little burnt, I won't spare you! Beibei, why are you wasting time talking to him? Beat him up! If you beat him until he can't take care of himself, I'll let you kiss me!"

Originally, Beibei's face was still stiff, but after hearing Tang Ya's words, the little witch who was afraid of nothing suddenly trembled involuntarily.

Beibei walked to Xu Sanshi's side and lowered his voice, saying, "That's enough. If you really hurt Yuhao today, according to the school rules, you'll be expelled. Use your brain and think about it carefully."

Shrek Academy's rules stipulated that senior students were not allowed to provoke or attack junior students. Once discovered, they would be expelled. However, junior students could challenge senior students, but this required a teacher to witness it, and it wasn't considered senior students bullying others.

As for students of the same year, fighting was allowed as long as it didn't result in death, and the academy wouldn't interfere.

Huo Yuhao, as a spiritual-type soul master, had sharp senses and also heard Beibei's conversation with Xu Sanshi.

Huo Yuhao adjusted his expression slightly, widening his eyes and trembling facial muscles, making him appear as if consumed by rage.

He patted a senior student who was casually watching nearby and said loudly, "Senior, you just witnessed it. Xu Sanshi attacked me first. Not only did he try to snatch goods I had already sold, but he also damaged my stall! It seems you are a senior from the Soul Guidance Department. Could you please go and inform Vice Dean Qianduo about what happened here? As a reward, I'll offer you three days of free barbecue here. How about that!"

The senior student in black clothes was momentarily stunned, but a hint of joy appeared on his face.

Such a good deal? Thanks to nature's gifts!

Even though Xu Sanshi was from the Dark Demonic Clan, not every student at Shrek Academy was without background, and not all of them would be concerned about the Dark Demonic Clan's influence.

Moreover, this student also had a major sect behind him in the Soul Master world, so he didn't care about offending Xu Sanshi. Right now, all he cared about was free barbecue.

"Young brother, no problem. You wait here, I'll go call Vice Dean Qianduoduo for you! Don't worry, I really saw what happened here earlier. I'll come back to testify for you later!"

Seeing the eager student about to head into the academy, Xu Sanshi's face turned pale. If this matter reached Vice Dean Qianduo, he would definitely be expelled, with no chance of luck.

He had finally reached the fifth grade at Shrek Academy and had already been earmarked as an inner court disciple. If he were expelled today because of this, his position as the young master of the Dark Demonic Clan would be in jeopardy. His old man wouldn't let him off the hook easily.

"No, no, no, no, no! Brother, I was reckless this time, it's all my fault. Can't I just apologize and make amends? How much compensation do you want, just say it."

Xu Sanshi grabbed the eager student who was about to walk into Shrek Academy and showed a smile uglier than crying to Huo Yuhao.

"I'm very angry right now and need to vent. If you're expelled from the academy, my anger might dissipate." Huo Yuhao shook his head and said coldly.

"No, please, Beibei, Tang Ya, you guys are familiar with this young brother, please help me persuade him!"

Xu Sanshi was so anxious that sweat dripped from his forehead. He didn't even care about revealing the insider information about Beibei managing the Soul Arena. He directly begged Beibei and Tang Ya for help.

Beibei smiled helplessly, walked to Huo Yuhao's side, patted his shoulder, and said, "Yuhao, it was indeed Xu Sanshi's fault today. But let's forgive and forget. I'll mediate, so let him go this time. This kid is from the Dark Demonic Clan, they are quite well-off. You don't need to be polite to him and can fleece him thoroughly."

Huo Yuhao saw Beibei trying to mediate, and his tense expression relaxed.

He wouldn't let Xu Sanshi be expelled. Not only would he gain nothing from it, but it would also offend the Dark Demonic Clan behind Xu Sanshi.

After all, in Shrek City, security was comparable to the experimental laboratories of the Kingdom of Soul Beasts. Any small incident could turn into a big news story.

"My barbecue stall here makes a fortune every day. Even if you give me ten thousand gold soul coins, I don't care!" Huo Yuhao said coldly.

"Since you're from the Dark Demonic Clan, you should have Xuan Water Pills on you, right? Compensate me with ten or eight pills, and I'll consider today's incident forgotten."
