Chapter 28 - Huo Yuhao’s Speculation – Something's Wrong with the God Realm

'Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan from the inner court had already left Shrek before we enrolled. Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao also dropped out on the very day of the new students' admission. Aside from those three, I really can't figure out whether anyone else at Shrek has a diary copy.'

'So, what exactly should I do?'

At this moment, Ning Tian could no longer focus on Mu Jin's earnest teaching at the podium. Her mind was completely occupied with what kind of decision she should make under such circumstances.

Forget everything else—the fact that a girl named Meng Hongchen received a reward that evolved her martial soul into the Ultimate Ice—if she had gotten the reward instead, she might also have had the chance to evolve her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!

Throughout the history of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, the last time a martial soul evolved was ten thousand years ago when Ning Rongrong did it. She eventually became a god and ascended to the God Realm alongside the other Shrek Seven Devils.

But so what?

Even if the original Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan was renamed to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, compared to before, nothing had truly changed. Their inherited martial soul was still the same old Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Now, seeing the hope of evolving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the timing couldn't be worse. Huo Yuhao was currently in the Sun Moon Empire, while their Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had always staunchly supported the Three Kingdoms of Douluo. As the young master of the clan, was she supposed to abandon her sect and run off to the Sun Moon Empire?

'Sigh, what should I do?'

Ning Tian slumped over her desk in frustration. Her demeanor only deepened Wu Feng's belief that Ning Tian's anxiety was due to Wang Dong, causing her to brim with jealousy and fury.

After all the students of Class One had finished introducing themselves, Huo Yuhao had fallen completely silent. At the front, the class teacher Jing Sha was explaining the fundamentals of soul tools and what they represented to the students below.

But Huo Yuhao sat frozen in thought, mentally dissecting and analyzing the series of events he'd experienced in recent days, trying to understand what caused these changes.

This state lasted for a long while. Then suddenly, as if struck by a realization, Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up. He locked his gaze on the back of the stunning girl in the front row—Gu Yue Na.

[I know now! I know why this is happening!]

[Tang San would never allow anyone to sabotage his millennia-long plan. Normally, even if I used his own tricks against him and said that Tang Ya being an orphan was too cruel, ruining my image in her eyes, she still shouldn't have attacked me, much less tried to kill me!]

[This couldn't be due to Tang San's negligence. After scheming for so many years, how could he allow mistakes? Most likely, the God of Destruction—his longtime adversary—noticed his manipulations and kept a close watch on him, preventing him from interfering with Tang Ya's behavior!]

[Only after shaking off the God of Destruction's surveillance did he realize that I'd become enemies with Tang Ya and Bei Bei, failed to join Tang Sect or Shrek Academy as planned, and instead fled all the way to the Sun Moon Empire. That's when he scrambled to salvage things—sending Wang Dong'er here, and even activating a contingency plan ahead of time by forcing Di Qiu'er, the auspicious beast, to appear several years earlier!]

[Di Qiu'er's obsession with leaving the Great Star Dou Forest stirred suspicion among the savage beasts. When even she couldn't explain why she felt that way, they awakened the slumbering Silver Dragon King, Gu Yue Na! She was supposed to stop Di Qiu'er, but instead, she chose to accompany her to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.]

[Eliminate the impossible, and whatever remains, no matter how unbelievable, must be the truth! The truth is—there's a problem in the God Realm. And not just a small problem—something massive! It's very likely that the God Realm cannot intervene for a while, not even watch over Douluo Continent! Otherwise, someone with Gu Yue Na's identity would never dare leave the Star Dou Forest in such a high-profile way under the God Realm's watch!]

[Whether this is the will of the Douluo Continent plane resisting oppression, or a hidden function of the diary, I don't know. But it's bought me more time—time to develop in peace!]

[Tang San, you better pray I don't get a reward from the diary that undoes the tricks you've played on Wang Dong'er's soul. If I do, I'll make sure she personally delivers your demise—with a sword named Frostmourne!]

[For now, I'll observe these women over the next few days. I need to confirm whether my theory is correct, and then act accordingly.]

[One last thing—F* YOU, GOD KING *TANG!!!]

'There's a problem in the God Realm?'

After seeing Huo Yuhao's speculation written in the diary, every woman who had a diary copy—except for Gu Yue Na and Di Qiu'er—experienced a subtle contraction of their pupils and a surge of indescribable shock.

Even Gu Yue Na couldn't help but pause slightly. She had truly not expected Huo Yuhao to draw such a conclusion from such deeply buried clues.

Although he got some details wrong, Huo Yuhao's final guess—that the God Realm couldn't intervene or even monitor Douluo Continent for now—was indeed correct.

It seemed that trying to keep Huo Yuhao in the dark while secretly earning diary rewards wasn't a long-term strategy after all.

If they didn't come up with a better approach, and let other women keep clinging to Huo Yuhao, trying to get him to mention their names in the diary, it might not take long for him to figure out they also had diary copies!

Gu Yue Na didn't know what the consequences would be if Huo Yuhao learned the truth, but if it could be avoided, then naturally, it was best to keep him from knowing.

'In that case, I'll need to warn those human girls.'

Gu Yue Na cast a cold glance at Xu Tianzhen, Ye Guyi, Wang Dong'er, and Xiao Xiao, who were sitting not far away, silently making a decision in her heart.

When the class ended and the teacher announced the break, Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate for even a second—he stood up and walked straight out the back door, showing not the slightest interest in the gorgeous girls around him.

Meng Hongchen had just arrived at the entrance of Class One and could only catch a glimpse of Huo Yuhao's retreating figure. She was about to call out to ask him to have lunch together, but then she remembered his speculation in the diary and forcefully stopped herself. Instead, she entered the classroom.

What greeted her eyes was a room full of stunningly beautiful girls, all staring at one another in dead silence.

When she saw Wang Dong'er and Di Qiu'er, Meng Hongchen still felt confident enough to compete in terms of looks.

But when she saw the face of the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yue Na, even the thought of comparison vanished from her mind. Human beauty could go no further than this!

Gu Yue Na knew her identity would make these girls wary, so she kept a cold expression and said plainly:

"Let's go for a walk. We need to talk."

Rest assured, the Huo Yuhao in my story isn't a fool. He's making the most likely inference based on what he knows so far. He's not someone who ignores the obvious or refuses to listen.
