Chapter 48 Contact
After Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo were trapped in the miasma of the Starry Purple Mist, Huo Yuhao decisively stopped the Illusionary Eye, but it was obviously too late.
Because the Lan sisters were trapped in the miasma, the Heavenly Net, the martial soul fusion skill that had been binding Wang Dong, naturally dissipated. Seeing the two sisters unconscious, Huang Chutian reacted quickly, attempting to eliminate Wang Dong, who had just broken free.
However, under Huo Yuhao's shared mental detection, his little scheme was useless. Upon receiving the message, Xiao Xiao immediately summoned the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron to stop Huang Chutian's movements. Then, she activated her first soul skill, Cauldron Tremor, which caused Huang Chutian's movements to pause slightly.
The next second, Huo Yuhao rushed over and delivered a chop to Huang Chutian's neck, and Huang Chutian followed in the footsteps of his two teammates, also passing out.
Li Xian announced, "The match is over, Huo Yuhao's team has won." As soon as he finished speaking, he used his soul power to help Huang Chutian wake up, and then waved to Huo Yuhao, signaling him to come with him to check on Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo.
"Huo Yuhao, mental-type soul skills are often unpredictable and difficult to defend against. I personally don't have much expertise in this field. Do you have a rough estimate of how long the two sisters' coma will last?" As he spoke, Li Xian had already tried to use his soul power to help the two little girls wake up, but as expected, it didn't work.
Huo Yuhao remained silent for a moment before selectively explaining the situation truthfully: "Just now, when I was using my third soul skill, Illusionary Eyes, for some reason, it resonated with their martial soul fusion skill, causing my soul skill to mutate. I can now confirm that they both fainted due to excessive mental energy consumption, but I can't say for sure how long they were unconscious."
Li Xian frowned and said, "Resonance? Mutation? Do you have a way to wake them up? Their mental energy is too depleted, and as far as I know, the only way is to let them rest. Even healing-type Soul Masters can't wake them up immediately."
Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment, "I do have a way, but it wouldn't be right for me to do it without their consent."
Li Xian looked at him strangely, "What method? Tell me first."
Huo Yuhao scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "It's about using my mental power to awaken their consciousness. Under normal circumstances, most mental-type Soul Masters probably wouldn't do this, because the mental power used to awaken others must be extremely gentle to work."
"My mental energy isn't actually that gentle, but because of the resonance we just had, I'm fairly confident they won't reject it. But this process requires our foreheads to touch. That's why I said I can't do it properly without their consent."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's explanation, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao were immediately displeased. Huang Chutian, however, didn't care about that; his biggest concern was that if the two sisters didn't wake up, their team would truly be finished.
Huang Chutian, who didn't want to be eliminated just like that, was staring at Huo Yuhao with longing eyes, wishing he could press Huo Yuhao down right now to wake up Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo.
Li Xian pondered briefly, then sighed softly, "Huo Yuhao, as you can see, Huang Chutian doesn't want to stop here, and Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo probably won't be willing to be eliminated like this either. Huo Yuhao, let's do as you say. Whether they want to continue or not, I think it's more important for these two kids to decide for themselves than for your concerns."
Wang Dong's resentment surged. She had just encountered Xiao Xiao, and now Huo Yuhao seemed poised to provoke a pair of twins. She was currently only a good brother, and now she had lost to both Xiao Xiao and the twins. If a few more vixens came along, she would soon become nothing more than a background character!
Damn it! I was here first!
Xiao Xiao turned her head away angrily, then gritted her teeth in resentment. She hadn't even succeeded yet! Why did she have to add another formidable opponent?
Huo Yuhao was unaware of these matters; all he wanted to do was figure out what that strange starry purple mist was.
As he thought this, Huo Yuhao first held Lan Susu in front of him, then lowered his head and gently pressed his forehead against hers. The gentle spiritual energy fluctuations emitted a faint golden halo and slowly flowed over, gently enveloping Lan Susu's sea of consciousness, as if opening a warm embrace to hold her.
The next instant, a pale purple halo, which surprised Huo Yuhao, gently rippled out from her sea of consciousness, actively merging with his spiritual power and beginning to resonate at the same special frequency.
Is this the aura of stellar power?
Huo Yuhao continued to output his mental energy thoughtfully, guiding the resonance of their mental energies.
This sudden resonance of mental energy caused Lan Susu's mental energy to surge and fluctuate like a tidal wave. Before long, Lan Susu's previously overdrawn mental energy was fully restored, and even slightly improved.
Huo Yuhao sensed that Lan Susu had awakened, so he immediately opened his eyes. But he didn't expect that Lan Susu would also open her eyes at the same time. Their breaths touched, their eyes met, and he blushed deeply.
Huo Yuhao quickly stood up, closed his eyes, and said somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, that was out of necessity to help you recover your mental energy. Please don't take it personally!"
Blushing, Lan Susu struggled to sit up from his arms and whispered to him, "It's nothing, thank you. My sister probably needs your help too, thank you for your trouble."
After speaking, Lan Susu quickly stood up and swayed to the side. Xiao Xiao quickly followed and supported her. The two women nodded to each other with complicated expressions and stood aside, watching Huo Yuhao continue his operation with some helplessness.
Lan Luoluo and Lan Susu were in similar situations. Huo Yuhao, having already gotten used to it a couple of times, quickly helped them regain consciousness, and then, like before, ended up blushing deeply.
After thanking Huo Yuhao with slightly flushed faces, Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo followed Huang Chutian off the stage to rest in the waiting area.
With Huo Yuhao and his team's match officially over, the second round of assessments officially began.
There were six teams in total, and two more matches were scheduled before it was Huo Yuhao's turn to take the stage again.
The second half of the new student assessment is the most crucial time to gain points; every extra win increases the chance of staying on the team. Therefore, every team is now giving it their all.
Soon, all three matches of the first round concluded. As a seeded team, Huo Yuhao and his two companions were once again the first to perform. This time, their opponents were three students from Class 4 of the freshmen.
After both sides took their positions, the match officially began.
Although Wang Dong had suffered a significant loss of soul power due to the Lan sisters' Heavenly Net, Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao were in good condition, despite some loss of soul power. As a result, the three agility-type soul masters on the opposing side were easily defeated by the perfect teamwork of the two.
Although Huang Chutian and the Lan sisters' strength was not as great as before, the Lan sisters' mental state was surprisingly good because of Huo Yuhao, so much so that they achieved a record of four wins in five matches, second only to Huo Yuhao and the other two.
The round of 64 has now concluded.
