Peerless: Auspicious Beast's Star Revival Plan

chapter 111
Time in lockdown flies by.

It seems...a little too fast.

Ma Xiaotao was led out of her room by Yan Shaozhe in bewilderment, and her one-year confinement was lifted.

She walked outside in a daze, the previous confusion still clamoring in her chest. Even after a year, she still didn't get an answer.

...but did this year really go by too fast?
It's not that Ma Xiaotao likes her confinement life very much, but when she tries to recall what she has done in the past year... she feels that she has done nothing, and her experiences every day seem to be the same. , just dazed and dazed in the bedroom...

She felt like her memories of this year were blurry. It felt like people occasionally couldn't remember what they ate last night... and it also felt like time had been stolen.

Something seems wrong.

But if I think about it carefully, I can't find any problem. Maybe it was too boring during the confinement period, and nothing impressive happened?
Ma Xiaotao scratched her hair in confusion, and finally gave up thinking about the matter.

In fact, of course it was impossible for her to spend an entire year in a fantasy world.

Wang Rui wanted to test people's reactions, but he didn't want to spend a year in jail.He didn't have any plug-ins for his pupil skills. The magic spell lasted for three days. He just blurred Ma Xiaotao's feeling about the passage of time, creating the illusion that a long time had really passed. He also stuffed a lot of time in confinement into her mind. Just the picture.

If Ma Xiaotao wasn't one of those intuitive players, he probably wouldn't have noticed something was wrong at the first time.

After a series of tests, Yan Shaozhe finally brought his disciple back to his office.

Various test results showed that the evil aura in Ma Xiaotao's martial spirit had calmed down and was no longer surging to explode as before. It seemed that this year's confinement was a good thing for her.

"In the past year, you have not been in a hurry to cultivate your soul power. The negative aura in your martial soul has become much more stable, and your tendency to lose control has been controlled." Yan Shaozhe was very satisfied, "You kid... you were like this before. You are too impatient. You must know that haste makes waste. You are already a genius and you cannot be so impetuous. I hope you can remember this lesson and never be greedy for more when you practice in the future..."

Yan Shaozhe's ramblings sounded like flies buzzing. The words entered Ma Xiaotao's left ear and went straight out of her right ear. She nodded randomly as if she was in a daze.

"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is about to begin. You can still catch up if you adjust your condition now... I hope you can arrive before the quarter-finals and appear as a secret weapon."

This was Yan Shaozhe's compensation for imprisoning his disciple for a year.

After the evaluation just now, he believed that Xiao Tao's condition was relatively stable and she was able to participate in the competition.

Ma Xiaotao has always wanted to participate in the competition. Before, she practiced hard to prepare for the competition. If it were normal, she would have jumped with joy when she heard the news, instead of looking as lost as she is now, her eyes Staring straight out the window.

Yan Shaozhe's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that what happened this time really hit the child too hard?
He really wants to teach his disciples a lesson, but if he hits the child too hard, the gains outweigh the losses!
"Xiao Tao, are you listening to me?" Yan Shaozhe asked with a frown.

"Yes." Ma Xiaotao said dullly, always staring at her toes, "I'll leave if there's nothing else."

She simply stood up and left.

Sitting in the office, Yan Shaozhe felt more and more something was wrong the more he thought about it.

He knows his adopted daughter's temperament.

Ma Xiaotao is young and naive, and her life is so pure that it almost only consists of cultivation. She is now at the age where the world is either black or white, right or wrong. In addition, her own temperament is inherently straightforward and cannot get a grain of sand out of her eyes... ...And now she seems to have not gotten over the accident a year ago, and she still seems to be feeling guilty.

In other words, she is very likely to act emotionally and take actions that are not conducive to the academy.

Yan Shaozhe originally thought that the competition would distract her attention, but now it seems that this matter is far from over.

He couldn't sit still.

……

Yan Shaozhe's guess about his adopted daughter was absolutely correct. Ma Xiaotao, who was extremely mobile, was standing in the archives room in the outer courtyard.She was so arrogant yet so gloomy, how could the teacher in the archives room dare to stop her.

"A soul-hunting accident?" She murmured, looking at the file in her hand.

There were only two students who left the school at this time last year. She easily found the files of those two students, and their respective home addresses were also recorded on their files.

Ma Xiaotao temporarily put aside the matter of whether to continue practicing. After the confinement, the first thing she wanted to do was to visit the homes of the two outer courtyard students, apologize and try to make amends.

If something is wrong, it is wrong, and she, Ma Xiaotao, is not a coward who dares not admit that she has done something wrong!
But Shrek Academy obviously did not disclose the cause of death of the two students... No one in the entire outer academy knew that they were killed by their own loss of control.

But this record is beautifully written, with no flaws at all.

"But this is wrong..." Ma Xiaotao gritted her teeth, put down the file in her hand, turned around and left, looking like a streak of scarlet fire.

What is right is right, and what is wrong is wrong. The things she did wrong were turned over and covered up by the college, as if it was an insult to her, like a needle pricking the back of her neck.

It may be difficult for older people to understand this mentality. Probably only young people who are not experienced in the world and are not smooth enough will care so much about right and wrong. It is similar to how young people who have just started working will feel uneasy and resistant to fishing with pay. This is A very clear stupidity.

Maybe in a few years, Ma Xiaotao will turn a blind eye to these two innocent souls, but she still can't do it now.

There was only black and white in her eyes, no room for gray.

...The Leng Tou Qing people often call her is probably what she looks like.

So when Yan Shaozhe found her, she was packing her luggage.

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to visit the homes of those two students." Ma Xiaotao said in a low voice.

"Don't go!" Yan Shaozhe's eyesight went dark, and he almost vomited a mouthful of old blood. He knew that the child was so quiet that he must be acting like a monster. "The college finally suppressed this matter, why are you causing trouble! Give it to me Put your stuff down!”

"I did something wrong, and I have to take responsibility." Ma Xiaotao frowned and did not lower her head.

The two of them argued, and neither could convince the other. After all, Ma Xiaotao had a temper, she was as stubborn as an old cow, and no one could bring her back.

Yan Shaozhe was so angry with her that he almost overturned the table and yelled: "Whether you are right or wrong, the academy cannot be wrong. Do you want to ruin Shrek Academy's reputation for thousands of years? Be more mature, Ma Xiaotao!" What's the point of running over like this, apart from giving people a reason to talk? Are you making everyone think that the younger generation of disciples in Shrek's inner courtyard are all crazy?!"

Shrek's reputation has been maintained by generations of people. Although Yan Shaozhe loves his adopted daughter, in his heart, Shrek is much more important than other things.

Ma Xiaotao also started to speak indiscriminately: "The worst case scenario is that I will retreat——"

"Pah!" Her words were slapped back.

Yan Shaozhe's face turned livid, "What nonsense are you talking about? You are grounded! If I can't figure out where you went wrong, you can't even think of leaving Poseidon Island!"

　Okay, the plot of Ma Xiaotao is almost done. My interpretation of this character is probably different from the mainstream reading. I don’t know if my shaping in these chapters has been reflected.
　　But I have to admit that I really like her.
　　Ma Xiaotao is proud, complacent, impulsive and overbearing, but she does take risks and protects her shortcomings
　　What is more controversial is the rash practice of entering this place. I put myself in her shoes and thought, I have her talent, I guess I am more rash than she is...

　　As for the dead people on the field, why is the referee a Titled Douluo...

　　The main reason is that there is a detail in the original work. During the Seven Monsters' sparring session, Huo Yuhao released the Ice Emperor simulation. Everyone including Xuanzi was frightened. Ma Xiaotao jumped out to protect everyone.
　　When I saw this detail, my liking for her immediately increased.

　　When something happens to this girl, she is really into her, and she is really into it.

　　...If you really can't accept it, it's not okay. In fact, it can be regarded as an original character with Ma Xiaotao's name... But I shouldn't be particularly disgusted after seeing this, right?
