Peerless Tang Sect: Hurricane Infinite Wind

Chapter 18 Cheating
After returning to the dormitory, Wu Xuan and the others began an afternoon of meditation practice.

It was almost dusk when the two of them ended their practice.

After walking out of the dormitory building, a clear and pleasant voice sounded from behind: "Class monitor, where are you and Qian Guming going?"

"Oh! Classmate Nanmen, Xiao Ming and I plan to go to the outer street of Dongmen and try Shrek's special snacks." Wu Xuan said with a smile.

"I'm also planning to go to Dongmenwai Street, squad leader, why don't we go together?" Nanmen Yoona asked with her dark green eyes flashing.

"Sure! Let's go together." Wu Xuan smiled and agreed without objection.

On the other side, Huo Yuhao and Tang Ya came to the street outside the east gate together.

Tang Ya was not far from the city gate and took out the prepared fish grilling tools.

There is a metal oven, iron racks, various seasonings, killed and washed herring, and a small table specially set up.

Tang Ya said to Huo Yuhao, "Okay, Xiao Yuhao, now it's up to you to decide on your cooking skills. Remember to leave two grilled fish for me. One grilled fish costs ten copper coins."

After saying this, Tang Ya, the little foodie, ran away excitedly.

Huo Yuhao first checked the seasonings and then began to process the herring. After marinating the herrings with seasonings, he began his grilled fish business.

Huo Yuhao was grilling fish while humming a song with a happy smile on his face. The time he spent at Shrek Academy could be said to be the happiest time for Huo Yuhao.

Wu Xuan and the other two chatted and laughed as they arrived outside the East Gate. Many vendors gathered outside the East Gate. They sold a wide variety of goods, but the majority were food vendors. The cries of hawkers were incessant.

"Hey! Huo Yuhao!" Wu Xuan was the first one to see Huo Yuhao grilling fish on a rack among the vendors.

That's right! Judging from his past life memories, during this period, Huo Yuhao was destitute and, at Tang Ya's suggestion, he started selling grilled fish to make a living. Thinking of this, Wu Xuan's disdain for the Tang Clan intensified.

"Class monitor! Do you know the freshman in Class 1?" Nammon Yoona asked curiously, blinking her big dark green eyes.

"Yes! I know him. The grilled fish he makes is really special." Wu Xuan said with a smile.

"Since Brother Xuan said so, I must try it." Qian Guming waved his hand and walked towards Huo Yuhao's stall.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's martial spirit possessed him, and with the excellent vision of his spiritual eyes, he had a very good grasp of the temperature.

The golden-yellow herring is baked with a light oil dripping from it, and a rich aroma emanates from the fish's belly.

"Little brother! How much is the grilled fish?" Qian Gu Ming came to the stall and greeted.

"Senior! Ten bronze soul coins for each." Huo Yuhao said politely. "Ah! Brother Wu Xuan!"

"Well, long time no see! But Yuhao, why are you out selling grilled fish?" Wu Xuan asked knowingly.

Huo Yuhao rubbed the back of his head sheepishly and said with a silly smile, "Isn't this just enough to earn some living expenses? Hehe!"

"Haha, that's fine too. After all, your skill in grilling fish is unique! Give each of the three of us a grilled fish." Wu Xuan said with a smile.

"Okay!" Huo Yuhao flipped the grilled fish on the grill a few times and handed the tempting golden fish to Wu Xuan and the other two.

Qian Guming took the grilled fish and handed over a Gintama coin.

"No, no thanks! You and Big Brother Wuxuan are good friends, so I'll treat you and Big Brother Wuxuan to a meal this time." Huo Yuhao said with a shy smile.

"How can that be? We won't let you lose money just after opening the business." Qian Gu Ming took a bite of the grilled fish in his hand, and his eyes suddenly widened.

Without hesitation, he said, "You don't need to give me the change for the rest of the money. Use it to buy grilled fish." After he finished speaking, he didn't care about anything else and started to eat the grilled fish greedily.

Wu Xuan also took a big bite of the grilled fish.

Compared to Qian Gu Ming, Wu Xuan and Nammen Yuner are much more elegant when eating.

The aroma of grilled fish had already attracted a large number of Shrek students to watch. Wu Xuan didn't want to be squeezed by the crowd, so he quickly withdrew.

The crowd was crowded, and Qian Guming quickly left the crowded stall after getting the remaining seven grilled fish.

"You bought so many grilled fish at once. Will you have time to eat other snacks later?" Nammen Yoona said with a smile.

"Eat! Of course! Brother Xuan, Yoona, you can have another one too." Qian Gu Ming handed two paper boxes to the two of them.

"You're smart, kid! Let's go to the next place for charcoal barbecue." Wu Xuan held up the grilled fish, took a big bite, and slowly walked towards another store.

After a quick meal, the three of them were satisfied. Just as they were about to leave the street outside the East Gate, a voice suddenly rang out through the Shrek Academy through the amplified soul guide. "Fourth-grade Beibei is challenging fifth-grade Xu Sanshi. This soul battle will take place in the Soul Fighting Zone soon."

"..."

Repeated three times in a row.

"Wow! It's the fighting spirits of the twin stars from the outer courtyard, senior Beibei and senior Xu Sanshi. Class monitor, let's go and take a look together." Nammen Yoona said in surprise.

"Okay! Let's go check it out together," Wu Xuan said thoughtfully. He remembered that in the original novel, Beibei and Xu Sanshi had agreed to this bet over some elixir. He also wanted to see the elixirs of this world, and Beibei still owed him money.

The fighting spirit area was not far from East City. When the three of them paid a silver soul coin each and came to the stands, the fighting spirit between Xu Sanshi and Beibei just started.

At this time, there were already four or five hundred people sitting around the edge of the venue, which was much more lively than before.

Beibei and Xu Sanshi had a fierce battle in the fighting arena, but neither of them could determine the winner.

"Xu Sanshi's defense is indeed strong. If I don't use the Soul-Breaking Spear, it will be difficult for my wind elemental martial spirit to break his defense." Wu Xuan made a comparison and came to this final conclusion.

“But even if I can’t break his defense, I can still defeat him in a crushing manner by relying on my wind elemental martial spirit.” Wu Xuan smiled confidently, and then continued to watch the game on the fighting spirit arena.

At this moment, Wu Xuan, whose terrifying mental power was comparable to that of a Soul Saint, suddenly felt a faint mental fluctuation.

This is the special mental fluctuation produced when a spiritual soul skill is activated. If Wu Xuan did not have the blessing of the first soul ring of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, he might not be able to sense it.

That was the front row closest to the fighting arena.

"Huo Yuhao, is he cheating?" Wu Xuan murmured with a frown.

In the fighting arena, the originally tense battle was decided due to Xu Sanshi's negligence. Beibei accurately seized the opportunity and directly decided the winner.

Wu Xuan turned to look at Huo Yuhao's position. By then, Huo Yuhao had already passed out from overdrawing his spirit power. Wu Xuan gave instructions to the two people beside him and stood up to leave.

"What's wrong with Yuhao?" Wang Dong, who was standing by, noticed Huo Yuhao slumped in his seat and asked in surprise.

Wu Xuan also walked in front of Huo Yuhao at this time, gave Tang Ya a meaningful look, and said lightly, "He's overdrawn his mental and spiritual power, right, Senior Sister Tang Ya!"

"Haha! Junior Wu Xuan!" Tang Ya touched her head awkwardly. After all, it was quite embarrassing to be caught cheating.

"Let's go outside and wait for Beibei!" Tang Ya didn't know how to face Wu Xuan, so she turned around and ran away.

Wu Xuan and Wang Dong were left staring at each other.

"Hello, my name is Wu Xuan, and I'm Huo Yuhao's... friend!" Wu Xuan took the lead in breaking the deadlock.

"Yes, my name is Wang Dong! I'm Huo Yuhao's roommate."

After briefly exchanging names, Wu Xuan didn't talk much. He carried Huo Yuhao and headed towards the exit of the fighting arena. Before they reached the dormitory building, Bei Bei and Tang Ya followed.

"Junior Wu Xuan! Long time no see." Beibei stepped forward and greeted him.

"Well! Long time no see!" Having witnessed several people cheating, Wu Xuan's expression was very dull, without his previous enthusiasm.

Beibei took out a silver card and handed it to Wu Xuan, "Wu Xuan, this is the balance of the last payment!"

"Okay! Then I'll accept it." Wu Xuan reached out and took the silver card and said lightly.

Bei Bei nodded, walked to Huo Yuhao, took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a pill from the bottle and stuffed it into Huo Yuhao's mouth.

It was a dark blue pill, the size of a cherry, with many white lines on it. After it was poured out of the porcelain bottle, a layer of light mist filled the air around the pill. A slightly fresh aroma lingered in the air, refreshing the heart.

Is this the elixir from this world? Wu Xuan thought about the appearance of the elixir and was lost in thought.

"Junior Wuxuan, please go with this little brother to send Yuhao back to the dormitory. Senior students are not allowed to enter the junior dormitories." Beibei asked.

"Don't worry about this little thing!" Wu Xuan agreed casually.

Arriving at the door of Dormitory 108, Wu Xuan specifically called out to Wang Dong, "When Huo Yuhao wakes up tomorrow morning, remember to tell him to come find me. I have something to tell him. I'm in Dormitory 305."

"Okay!" Wang Dong nodded.
