Heaven Dou Academy viewing platform.
Huo Wu watched the match. Dugu Yan easily defeated Thunderclap Academy with just one Spirit Ability, and a look of shock flashed in her eyes, accompanied by a strong sense of unwillingness and loss.
Because she knew that even if Thunderclap Academy were replaced by Blazing Academy, the outcome would be the same.
But how could the gap be so huge!
Huo Wu looked at Huo Wushuang beside her with a frustrated expression.
"Brother, I'm going out for a walk!"
Huo Wushuang was startled, his brows furrowed slightly, and he hesitated, "Sister, have you forgotten that our teacher told us to avoid going out alone if possible?"
Huo Wu mumbled, "Brother, don't worry. I'll just walk around the Great Spirit Arena and be back soon. Nothing will happen."
Huo Wushuang thought that even if the mysterious person who attacked Yu Tianheng some time ago wanted to make a move, they probably wouldn't dare to do so near the Great Spirit Arena.
So Huo Wushuang smiled and said, "Alright then, just remember not to go too far."
He also knew that his sister must have watched the Heaven Dou Academy versus Thunderclap Academy match and was disheartened by Dugu Yan's strength.
Going out for a walk at this time to ease her emotions was a good idea.
Upon hearing this, Huo Wu naturally knew her brother was worried about her, so she chuckled loudly and said, "Then I'm off for my walk."
With that, Huo Wu turned and left the viewing platform where Blazing Academy was seated.
What she didn't know was that as she left the viewing platform, Shi Nian, in the Canghui Academy viewing platform, slightly raised his eyelids, a hint of coldness flashing across his face.
"Finally, she's alone!"
A sinister thought flashed through Shi Nian's mind, and then he stood up and also left Canghui Academy's viewing platform.
His departure did not attract too much attention.
Although a few students from Canghui Academy noticed, they dared not ask a single question.
…
Huo Wu walked around the Great Spirit Arena for a while. The sunny weather, blue sky, and white clouds today greatly eased her previously stressed heart.
Similarly, she didn't encounter any attacks.
But then again, with so many participants in the Spirit Master Tournament, how could she be so unlucky?
Moreover, this was around the Great Spirit Arena; even if someone wanted to make a move, they shouldn't choose this place.
Huo Wu felt a wave of relief, and after relaxing her mood, she prepared to return to the viewing platform.
The bustling street was filled with people coming and going, incredibly lively.
Qi Lin and Zhu Zhuqing walked side by side on the street, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match.
These girls seemed to have reached a private agreement, taking turns to monopolize Qi Lin for a day.
Today was Zhu Zhuqing's turn!
Zhu Zhuqing wore the Heaven Dou Academy team uniform, which fit her perfectly and elegantly, highlighting her imposing figure to the fullest.
Her fair face was flushed with shyness at this moment, and strolling through the streets of Heaven Dou with Qi Lin filled her heart with a sense of happiness. From time to time, she would turn her head to glance at Qi Lin's profile.
However, just as the two were strolling, Qi Lin's eyebrow suddenly twitched.
On the street at the corner ahead of him and Zhu Zhuqing, a fiery red figure walked quickly past.
Qi Lin had some impression of this person; it was Huo Wu from Blazing Academy.
She looked no different than usual, but Qi Lin could tell at a glance that she had been subjected to an illusion.
And right behind Huo Wu, an old man in white followed calmly about twenty meters behind her.
Qi Lin also had an impression of this person; it was Shi Nian, the dean of Canghui Academy.
Looking at the two of them, Qi Lin's lips curved slightly upward.
Interesting, isn't this the original story arc for Tang San?
He didn't expect that after Shi Nian attacked Yu Tianheng, he would once again target Huo Wu.
Zhu Zhuqing noticed Qi Lin's unusual behavior and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
Qi Lin smiled slightly and took Zhu Zhuqing's fair wrist.
"Nothing, just found something interesting."
"Come on, I'll take you to watch a good show."
With that, Qi Lin quietly followed behind Shi Nian with Zhu Zhuqing.
With Qi Lin's current strength, as long as he didn't want Shi Nian to discover him, Shi Nian wouldn't find a thing.
Unknowingly, Qi Lin and Zhu Zhuqing had followed Shi Nian into a small forest outside the city.
"This Shi Nian wants to kill someone here and then destroy the evidence, so no one will know he's the murderer."
"His illusion is so powerful. Huo Wu is still immersed in it. I wonder if she's noticed anything unusual."
Zhu Zhuqing and Qi Lin stood behind a thick tree, discussing, but not at all worried that Shi Nian in front would hear their voices.
Because Qi Lin had already blocked the sound with his spirit power, Shi Nian couldn't hear a thing.
And after Shi Nian led Huo Wu here, he confidently removed the illusion on her.
It wasn't until the illusion was lifted that Huo Wu suddenly became sober.
She was not like Tang San in the original story, who not only cultivated Purple Demon Eye but also consumed the Immortal Herb, Autumn Water Dew, making his mental force far surpass that of Spirit Masters of the same rank.
Therefore, facing Shi Nian's illusion, she was completely immersed in it and didn't notice any abnormality.
When the illusion was lifted and she saw the unfamiliar surroundings, Huo Wu's expression immediately turned grim.
"Wasn't I at the Great Spirit Arena? Where is this?!"
A hint of panic flashed across Huo Wu's face.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"Huo Wu of Blazing Academy, this old man has been watching you for a long time. I finally caught you when you were alone."
"What?!" Huo Wu exclaimed upon hearing this, her expression immediately becoming wary.
Besides that, she also realized that she had been under an illusion just now, otherwise how could she have been unknowingly brought to this place.
Turning around and looking at Shi Nian who was following her, Huo Wu suppressed the fear in her heart and said in a condensed voice, "Who are you? Do you know that attacking a participant during the Spirit Master Tournament, once discovered, will make the entire Spirit Master's world unable to tolerate you?"
Shi Nian gave a sinister smile, a confident look appearing on his wrinkled old face.
"Since this old man made a move, I naturally have full confidence that I won't be discovered, just like that Yu Tianheng. This old man killed him, but do you see anyone investigating this old man?"
"Hahaha, little girl, are you ready to die?"
"What this old man likes most is torturing and killing so-called geniuses like you, especially when torturing and killing you also allows my Canghui Academy to defeat Blazing Academy. That's killing two birds with one stone."
Upon hearing this, Huo Wu knew that she was likely doomed today, and she could no longer hold back, cursing, "So you old geezer are from Canghui Academy! Knowing you can't defeat our Blazing Academy, you resort to such despicable means. How shameless!"
"No wonder your previous target was Yu Tianheng. Is it because Shrek Academy is also an opponent of your Canghui Academy?"
"Breaking the rules like this, and then attacking Yu Tianheng and me one after another, do you think everyone is a fool?"
"The net of heaven has large meshes, but it lets nothing through. Even if your grandma dies today, you won't have a good end."
Huo Wu snorted coldly and instantly activated her Spirit possession.
Knowing that death was certain, she still wouldn't choose to surrender.
And Shi Nian was also enraged by Huo Wu, roaring.
"You're asking for death!"
