My Power is Upgrading Everything (Rewrite)

--- Chapter 68 ---

Two days passed after the Ma Xiaotao incident, and nothing special happened besides light sparring in Zhou Yi's Class. Huo Yuhao had a round and beat the student with his fist, making him a menace in their eyes because he didn't just knock them but also made them feel a painful experience.

Huo Yuhao created a new technique by combining Penetrating Fist, Busoshoku Haki, and Eyes of the Lord. He named it Gentle Love Tap, a supreme skill where he could hit one's body and inflict incredible pain without dealing excessive damage.

"The class is over. Be sure to apply my teaching to your Spirit Energy circulation later." Zhou Yi said while placing a marker on the desk. "And Huo Yuhao, you stay here for a moment."

Huo Yuhao played with his pen in boredom and awkwardly stopped because Zhou Yi suddenly called his name. Since he wasn't from the Shrek Academy, he expected her never to ask about that matter.

"Uh, okay?" He replied, which caused Qianye Ying'er and Wang Dong to chuckle on the side.

Wang Dong leaned on his desk and teased, "Hehe, Teacher Zhou probably would punish you for not paying attention. People were busy writing notes, and you were playing with your pen."

Huo Yuhao pointed at his head casually and returned, "Who writes notes when you can listen and remember everything here? What's this backwater learning method?"

"You might haven't noticed it, but Yang Xin and Qianye Ying'er also don't write notes and train their Spirit Energy instead. Or Are you paying attention to me so much that you forget to see others?" He teased back, which made Wang Dong blush.

"Chill, bro. I'm just joking." Huo Yuhao whistled while seeing Zhou Yi's expression change when hearing his previous statement about the learning method.

As the student left the classroom one after another, Zhou Yi and Huo Yuhao were the only ones inside. They stared at each other and didn't open their mouths for five minutes, making the tension heavier with each second.

"What do you want, teacher Zhou?" Huo Yuhao suddenly asked.

"Just spit it out already."

"Those elders wanted to know so much about Dragon Nest Academy's learning method. You tried asking higher grade exchange students, but none answered back."

"In the end, you chose to approach the leader or center of the group, me. No?" An evil smirk appeared behind Huo Yuhao's mask.

Zhou Yi sighed and replied, "Yes."

Huo Yuhao walked from the seat and spoke, "Well, too bad for you, teacher Zhou. I don't accept a deal from someone whose authority is lower than Sea God Pavilion members. Tell Yan Shaozhe to meet me at Housing Dorm No.14 tonight."

He casually walked past the stern-looking woman and met with his companions outside the class. "Hmm, What's with that expression, Wang Dong?" He asked, noticing something weird from the three.

"Yuhao, I know you're popular, but this is ridiculous." Wang Dong said while showing a white letter with a green gem-like leaf. It's still sealed, but Scathach and Qianye Ying'er clearly have read the content with their spiritual sense. Of course, they acted like everything was normal.

'Women.' Huo Yuhao hoped he had a cup of roasted Arabian black coffee with him for some reason. Oddly specific? He didn't think so.

He took the letter from Wang Dong's hand and opened it in one motion. After reading the letter, he couldn't help but chuckle because that girl was really coming to the Shrek Academy for him.

"I hope you don't forget our promise, huh?" He said while reading the last part of the letter. "Sincerely-."

"Sincerely, who??" Wang Dong curiously asked.

Huo Yuhao glanced at Wang Dong and answered, "Sincerely, Your mom."

"Y-Yuhao, You bastard?!!"

...

...

When walking out of the building, Huo Yuhao parted from the group because he had something else. He waved his hand to Scathach and Qianye Ying'er and went to the location written inside the letter.

"Should we follow him?" Qianye Ying'er asked the god slayer solemnly. "The girl in the letter seemed to know Yuhao earlier than us. Since the Mistress hasn't shown any complaints about it, she most likely joined the harem."

Scathach pondered for a moment because she knew how challenging it was to gain recognition from Huo Yun'er. Even though she was known as the God Slayer and Warrior Queen in her previous world, that excessively possessive foxy woman was hard to deal with by ordinary means. And there is no exception because girls like Qianye Ying'er and Huang Yuna experienced the same trials.

"Leave him be." The God Slayer shook her head. "From the letter, we know the girl has been waiting for six years. And Huo Yun'er will definitely know about this event sooner or later, so she could decide the girl's fate."

Qianye Ying'er pouted and groaned, "Eh... But I want to see~!"

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao arrived at the back of the studying building and saw Sea God Lake Scenery. A black-haired girl in a 1st-grade uniform stood near a lush willow tree and nervously looked around, searching for someone.

Huo Yuhao smiled inside because the small Xiao Xiao he knew had developed into a fine young woman despite her age. She's around 169 or 171 centimeters with nicely growing assets and a let loose black hair. Her green eyes have become brighter akin to emeralds, which complimented her beautiful face even more.

[Name: Xiao Xiao]

[Age: 12]

[Race: Human]

[Cultivation: Spirit King/Level 51(Hidden)]

[Martial Souls: Three Lives Soul Sealing Cauldron(3+), Nine Phoenix Worshiping Flute(5+)]

[Description: A Lovesick Girl in Mission]

"Hmm?" Huo Yuhao was speechless because Xiao Xiao actually reached Spirit King, unlike her original counterpart. What happened to her when he was gone?

"Whatever, I'll know about it later." He brushed the curiosity first and walked toward the willow tree, making his appearance known to her.

Xiao Xiao looked around and saw a tall young man approaching her from afar. Her heart skipped a beat upon seeing this familiar-looking person. "Y-Yun Long, we will meet again." She tried her best not to cry because of the overwhelming feelings.

Huo Yuhao opened his mask and replied, "How are you, Xiao Xiao? You have become more beautiful."

Xiao Xiao didn't reply and went for the hug because it had been so long since she was meeting him. She still remembered the promise she made to Huo Yuhao's mother, pushing her to become strong enough to support him in the future.

"Thank you for the hard work." Huo Yuhao patted Xiao Xiao's back and watched her nervous expression melt.

After calming herself, Xiao Xiao wiped her tears with an expensive-looking handkerchief and smiled brightly at Huo Yuhao. "I've been waiting for this day. We finally met again, Yuhao." She said while grasping his hand.

"We finally could be together..." Her raspy yet sweet voice echoed in the backyard.

Huo Yuhao's eyes widened in awe because Xiao Xiao's behavior changed abruptly. Even though she looks the same, her pinkish-red aura says otherwise. And It reminds him of Huo Yun'er when she was hungry for attention.

"Fuck me, Another Yandere." He whispered to himself.

...

...

After that, Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao slowly walked to Housing Dorm No. 14, but from time to time, the lovesick girl would steal a glance at him and squeal in happiness.

"Uh, Xiao Xiao." He called her name.

"Yes, Yuhao~?" Xiao Xiao replied immediately.

Huo Yuhao sighed and asked, "Can you tell me how you reached the Spirit King?"

Xiao Xiao tilted her head because even a Title Douluo shouldn't be able to know her real strength. She beamed because Huo Yuhao was obviously different from others.

"Six years ago, when you're gone. White Tiger Clan was struck with a financial crisis and forced to sell their owned lands on the Star Luo Empire to survive."

"Even though my family has nothing but a bakery. We somewhat can purchase a good chunk of land near with our 20 years' worth of savings and build a merchant group." Xiao Xiao pulled a badge with a bread logo in the middle. "We named it Thousand Bakery to remember our origin."

"The merchant group expands rapidly for six years and is even lucky enough to find some gem mines, making our wealth equal to some kingdoms within the Star Luo Empire."

"As the only child and successor of the Thousand Bakery Merchant, I was allowed to train with more resources and cultivated my strength quickly."

She giggled and continued, "Of course, it was secret because I have 10.000 years old Skull Spirit Bones to hide my real level. Having twin martial souls is a perk that blessed me in this situation because I can fool everyone with my Three Lives Soul Sealing Cauldron that only has three spirit rings."

"You know, I always wondered how such a miracle could happen to my family, especially me. The answer is you, Yuhao." She said with a thankful look. "After meeting you, I was struck with lucky chances."

"And with that lucky chance, I've fulfilled the requirements placed by your mother."

"Build a useful faction that can support you in the future."

"Reach Spirit King Realm before I become 13 years old."

"I can cook, clean, and service you."

"Yuhao, will you accept me?" She suddenly asked.

Huo Yuhao stared at Xiao Xiao's green eyes and saw her origin story with the Divine Throne of Beginning and End. After a thorough examination to confirm something, he chuckled in defeat because she was obsessed with him.

He opened his mouth and said, "Xiao Xiao, my feelings are limited because we knew each other briefly. Yet, you have tried and waited long enough to prove something."

"That's why Xiao Xiao, I'll open my heart for you."

"Oh god, this is so awkward." He continued while swaying his head away. "Anyway... Xiao Xiao, let's be friends and know about each other first."

"You haven't changed..." An amused laugh escaped Xiao Xiao's mouth.

"Then, Yuhao. I'll make you fall in love with me."
