Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

“But Young Master, she is already overdrawing her body. If this continues, it could even affect her foundation,” the elder said anxiously. A competition was just a competition; if it ruined the child's future, it would not be worth it.

“It's alright, I know what I'm doing. Nothing will happen,” Huo Yuhao said calmly, his eyes never leaving Su Shan'er.

Du Bu Si sighed inwardly, perhaps this was the power of hatred. He had traveled with the little girl and knew of her experiences.

Huo Yuhao: "…"

What was that supposed to mean? It sounded like he was visiting a brothel to pick out a girl.

Was that polite? Huo Yuhao decided to ignore him.

About fifteen minutes passed, and the three people on the field were still persevering. Su Shan'er felt her vision becoming increasingly blurred, her body aching all over, and her legs as heavy as lead.

Her cyan clothes were already soaked with sweat, her hair stuck to her face, and she looked as if she had been fished out of the water.

Thump!

Su Shan'er stumbled and fell to the ground. She opened her eyes with difficulty, her heart filled with unwillingness. Was this it? Was this all there was? Was she going to fall here?

No, no, I still need to avenge my sister. I can't miss this opportunity, Su Shan'er shouted in her heart.

To everyone's surprise, Su Shan'er staggered to her feet. She took difficult steps forward, her body swaying slightly as if she would fall again at any moment.

Du Bu Si's eyes showed surprise. Was such willpower really something a seven-year-old child should have?

Thump!

A person's physical strength is limited. On the martial arts field, the small figure staggered forward a few steps before falling again. This time, she couldn't get up again because she had already fainted.

Having witnessed all of this, Huo Yuhao revealed a satisfied smile, pulled Bing Di away, and left with a final word.

“Alright, take them down to rest. Have them gather here tomorrow morning.”

Upon seeing this, everyone understood. It seemed that the Young Master already had a plan. No, he was an Elder now.

Everyone saw Su Shan'er's performance. It wasn't just effort, it was desperation. Talent aside, the little girl was already very good.

Some people had objections in their hearts, but after hesitating, they held back. After all, accepting disciples was a matter of mutual consent, and others shouldn't interfere, just like parents naming their children. Even if they called them Gouzi or Wangba, it was their choice.

The next day, as the morning sun broke through the horizon, sunlight shone into the room through the cracks in the window. In the bathroom, a delicate little girl was lying in a bathtub filled with a black liquid with a thick texture.

The little girl frowned slightly and slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the black liquid in the bathtub and then at her surroundings. Su Shan'er frowned slightly. This wasn't her room.

Creak. At this moment, the bathroom door was pushed open, and Su Shan'er was startled, shrinking slightly into the bathtub. However, when she saw that it was a female disciple who had entered, she felt a slight relief.

The female disciple had a bath towel in her hand. After placing the towel, she said to Su Shan'er, “Little one, pay attention to the time. Gather at the martial arts field in two hours. Don't be late.”

After speaking, the female disciple left, not forgetting to close the bathroom door.

Su Shan'er stepped out of the bathtub and walked to the side, turning on the shower. The warm water washed away the dirt on her body. Thinking about yesterday's competition, Su Shan'er couldn't help but sigh, feeling lost. What a great opportunity, but she still didn't seize it.

She forgot that no one had ever mentioned the criteria for the third round. No one had said that the first place would become a disciple, and no one had said that fainting would result in elimination.

Behind the mountain of the Body Sect, inside a bamboo house, Huo Yuhao began his morning practice.

“Bing'er, rest a little longer. I'm going out.”

Huo Yuhao kissed Bing Di on the face, got up, and walked into the bathroom.

Bing Di didn't respond; she just wanted to rest.

Half an hour later, a radiant Huo Yuhao walked out of the room in high spirits. Coincidentally, the door next door was also opened, and Xue Di walked out with light steps.

Xue Di walked up to Huo Yuhao, glanced at the sleeping Bing Di inside the room, and then looked at Huo Yuhao, frowning. “Is it really okay for you to torment her like that so early in the morning?”

Huo Yuhao first gave a speech, pouring a bowl of chicken soup for the soul, to comfort the children's young hearts.

The effect was still there. After being comforted, the little ones were much more energetic. So it turned out that they were also very good.

This former Young Master was really warm. This was the thought of many children.

Children of six or seven years old are like this, without so many complicated thoughts. Two words of praise and a lollipop can make them happy.

The five children in the front had bright eyes. They understood that it wasn't the first place in the third round who would be accepted as a disciple, but it depended on Huo Yuhao's choice.

Hope ignited in Su Shan'er's eyes as she looked at Huo Yuhao expectantly.

After saying some meaningless platitudes, Huo Yuhao's attention also turned to the five little ones in front of him, his gaze sweeping over them, and finally stopping on Su Shan'er.

“Little one, how about it, are you willing to become my disciple?”

Boom!

Huo Yuhao's words were like a thunderclap exploding in Su Shan'er's ears, shocking her to her core, and also like heavenly music, so wonderful and beautiful.

The other children were somewhat disappointed. The child next to Su Shan'er saw that she was dumbfounded and didn't react, so he nudged her with his elbow.

Su Shan'er then woke up. There was no way, happiness had come too suddenly. Looking up at the smiling Huo Yuhao, Su Shan'er took two steps forward and bowed deeply, saying, “Shan'er greets Master.”

“Good, good, get up.”

As the words fell, Su Shan'er felt an invisible force lifting her up. Just as she stood still, an unexpected scene happened again.

“Greetings, Young Sect Master.”

Behind Huo Yuhao, the elders bowed and saluted in unison, expressing their respect.

“Greetings, Young Sect Master.” After a moment of stunned silence, everyone present saluted, but they were also somewhat confused at this moment. Wasn't it said that Huo Yuhao had already relinquished the position of Young Sect Master and entered the Elder Council? Then who were they bowing to now?
