Chapter 213: Heaven and Earth Reversed
With Xiao Wu still under control, Tang San's hatred for Huo Yuhao blazed like wildfire, driving him into a frenzy.
No matter how many times he was killed, he swore to take revenge.
Lost in anger, Tang San didn't quit the match—and Huo Yuhao had no intention of stopping, feeling a strange satisfaction from this vengeance.
Seeing this, Yan Feng and the other Holy Spirit Church disciples saw Huo Yuhao in a new, fearful light.
They thought they were already mad enough, but Huo Yuhao was even crazier.
Repeatedly slaughtering the same person—even evil soul masters couldn't help but pity Tang San, and fear Huo Yuhao.
Unbeknownst to them, Huo Yuhao had made an example of Tang San, though not his original target.
Xiao Wu, under mind control, could only watch as Tang San died over and over. Her pain and despair grew until her consciousness nearly collapsed.
She couldn't even log out of the simulation—a loophole no one expected anyone to exploit.
Who would have thought someone like Huo Yuhao would appear?
After all, killing in the simulation wasn't real, and controlling someone to prevent logout seemed pointless.
Also, Huo Yuhao's spiritual power couldn't control Xiao Wu forever.
…
From a mountaintop, Lu Jingming watched Tang San's endless deaths and couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn, this is a complete reversal!"
He remembered the original story, where Sea God Tang San tormented Huo Yuhao in the Yin Yang Love Querying Valley, killing him repeatedly.
If he didn't know about the gem's secret and Mobius' backup plan, he would have thought Huo Yuhao reincarnated just for revenge.
"Is that Huo Yuhao? How did he become like this?" Among the spectators, some from Shrek Academy recognized the abandoned Huo Yuhao.
Watching him ruthlessly kill Tang San over and over, their faces were stunned.
On the other side, Yu Xiaogang and company were furious.
Liu Erlong, hot-tempered as ever, raged at Huo Yuhao's behavior, which had crossed all lines.
"What…" Ning Fengzhi and others were puzzled.
By strength, Huo Yuhao was clearly not from their side—so why did he and Tang San have such deep hatred?
"Junior Brother, Xiao Ya!" As Tang San's torment continued and Xiao Wu neared breakdown, the Shrek Academy team, drawn by the revival beacon, arrived.
Seeing Huo Yuhao and Tang Ya, team captain Bei Bei was overjoyed.
Huo Yuhao, seeing Bei Bei and Xiao Xiao, frowned.
He was no longer the Huo Yuhao they knew. Now, as the Blood-Eyed Saint, he had no bonds of camaraderie.
"Squad leader, it's really you! Wang Dong has been looking everywhere for you!" Xiao Xiao also rushed over in excitement.
But as she neared, she froze.
Huo Yuhao's cold gaze showed no emotion, chilling her. This was not the person she once knew.
"Xiao Ya, I missed you—where have you been?" Before Xiao Xiao could react, Bei Bei darted forward to Tang Ya.
Thud!
The Blue Silver Tyrant Spear pierced him ruthlessly, blood bursting forth and reflecting his stunned face.
"Are you kidding me?" Xu Sanshi and the others stood dumbfounded.
Tang Ya had just killed Bei Bei without hesitation—a fatal blow.
"Xiao-Xiao Ya?" Bei Bei, gripping the spear, stared at Tang Ya in confusion.
She simply flung him aside.
Tang Ya showed no mercy. Bei Bei vanished into light, dropping a blue revival chip at Xu Sanshi's feet.
Seeing Tang Ya's blank expression, as if she'd killed a stranger, Xu Sanshi's veins bulged in anger.
"Teacher Xiao Ya, squad leader, you—!"
Xiao Xiao, trembling, looked at the cold Huo Yuhao and the blank Tang Ya, unable to comprehend what was happening.
"Xiao Xiao, back off. They're no longer the Huo Yuhao and Tang Ya we knew."
Jiang Nannan sensed something was deeply wrong.
"Holy Son, the commotion must have attracted other teams. What do we do next?"
Yan Feng frowned, not understanding Huo Yuhao's motives—but knowing the repeated revival flashes had drawn attention.
"Kill them all." Huo Yuhao's blood-red eyes were filled with murderous intent. He waved his hand carelessly.
With his order, Tang Dai and Wang Xiaolei grinned bloodthirstily and charged Xu Sanshi and the others like wolves.
Seeing this, Ning Tian and Wu Feng readied for battle.
Xiao Xiao, despite her shock, summoned her Soul Calming Cauldron and prepared for a fight.
"Don't fight—grab Bei Bei's chip and retreat!" Xu Sanshi shouted, activating his Xuanwu martial soul.
A massive black Xuanwu shadow appeared, and a black water vortex blocked the enemy's advance.
In the chaos, Jiang Nannan dashed forward, snatching Bei Bei's chip.
With the chip secured, Xu Sanshi relaxed.
As long as they had the chip, they held the initiative.
"You can't escape!" Yan Feng's bone dragon loomed again, blasting a freezing breath.
The icy wave froze everything in its path.
Meanwhile, Tang Dai's golden skeleton form shrugged off He Caitou's soul tool barrages, charging Xu Sanshi's group without fear.
Tang Dai's Skull King martial soul had far surpassed a typical Soul King in defense.
Elsewhere, Lu Genggeng transformed into a giant abomination, swinging his hook at Ning Tian.
Luckily, Wu Feng shielded her, blocking the massive iron hook with a fiery punch.
Even with Ning Tian's support, Wu Feng was pushed back by the force.
One side desperately tried to escape, the other to wipe them out—a fierce pursuit began.
Seeing his allies on the chase, Huo Yuhao stabbed an ice spike through Xiao Wu's chest, ending her suffering.
He didn't bother picking up Xiao Wu and Tang San's revival chips—he'd just kill them again if revived.
With all his original persona's memories, Huo Yuhao knew Xu Sanshi's group wouldn't go down easily.
He immediately took Tang Ya and followed.
He felt nothing for Shrek Academy—no ties to the past. He wanted all their people eliminated.
After all, his original self cared for Shrek, but what did that have to do with his second persona?
…
Elsewhere, Skywater, Blazing Fire, and Godwind Academies were lucky to spawn in the same area.
They allied instead of fighting, using numbers to bully weaker teams.
But when they encountered the mysterious Body Sect, everything changed.
"Who are those people? How can they have Soul Emperors—and such terrifying strength!"
Shui Yue'er nervously patted her chest, glancing back for fear the monsters of the Body Sect would catch up.
Other than one blonde girl, the Body Sect members were all towering figures with strange but frighteningly powerful martial souls.
