At this time, Ning Tian and the others also arrived together. Ma Xiaotao, still fuming, denounced the stupidity of the Dai family.
"The current generation of the White Tiger Duke's line is truly ruined." Ning Tian frowned. "When I return, I'll write to my father, we'll need to be wary of that family."
"Best to keep our distance, otherwise when little Yuhao takes revenge, we might get caught in the crossfire." Xu Sanshi joked.
Wang Dong nodded earnestly in agreement.
That night…
Dai Hao suddenly gained four new "enemies": the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Xuanwu Sect, the Clear Sky Sect, and Shrek. The best part was...
[Rewritten Dai Hao's destiny, +25,000 Fortune Points!]
Getting revenge and earning money—how refreshing!
Huo Yuhao was in high spirits. As soon as he returned to Shrek, he dragged Wang Dong off to dual cultivate.
Not until the alarm soul tool rang did he finally stop, satisfied.
When he opened his eyes..
[Rewritten Xiao Xiao's destiny, +500 Fortune Points!]
So Xiao Xiao had finished absorbing her soul bone?
After washing up separately, Huo Yuhao found Xiao Xiao and the others already waiting under the banyan tree. Zhou Yi stood at the front of the group.
"Yuhao, you've all been assigned to Class One. I'll remain your homeroom teacher.
As for last night's incident, Dai Huabin has already been detained. We'll deal with him after you return.
For now, focus on preparing for your duel. Don't worry about class matters.
This is a dossier on the White Tiger martial soul's history—it should be of help."
She handed him a book as thick as her palm, thoroughly researched.
"Thank you, Teacher Zhou."
Zhou Yi then took out a small wooden box, discreetly pressing it into Huo Yuhao's hands as she covered the motion with her body.
Using soul power to transmit her voice, she explained:
[This is a Secret Method Soul Left Arm Bone, obtained from a wager. It was forged by a special method from a soul beast's bones. Though not yet ten thousand years old, it possesses powerful fusion attributes, able to serve as a medium for merging two soul bones into one.]
[It may be of use to you. Take it.]
She patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder. Without giving him a chance to refuse, she turned and left.
Huo Yuhao silently etched this favor into his heart, then put away the book and box.
He called the group together and divided them up.
"Those who want to study Tai Chi stand on the left. Those practicing the Muscle Transformation Manual sit cross-legged on the right."
Once they had arranged themselves, Yuhao activated Spiritual Detection Sharing, running Tai Chi alongside the Muscle Transformation Manual, transmitting the corresponding methods to each side.
This feat of multitasking gave the newcomers quite a shock
and quickly drew them into the profound charm of the arts.
The morning's lesson passed swiftly.
Wu Feng, though hopeless with Tai Chi, showed strong talent with the Muscle Transformation Manual, and would likely master the basics within the day.
Ning Tian, as a support-type soul master, surprisingly grasped Tai Chi very quickly. Her progress surpassed even the Lan sisters within one morning.
Nanmen Yun'er, after trying Tai Chi, quickly recognized her limits and switched to the Muscle Transformation Manual.
Her exact progress would need time to tell.
As for the rest… their results were disappointing.
Among Zhou Sichen's group of three, ranked second in the freshman assessment, only Long Xiangyue managed some progress in Tai Chi.
The others, including the team ranked third, were completely lost.
It seemed they had no fate with the Holy Flame Sect.
Huo Yuhao gave his final instructions:
"I need to acquire a new soul ring. The rest of you continue practicing on your own.
Those who haven't entered the sect, if you manage an insight later, you can return."
"Dismissed."
"Wang Dong, you stay."
The others left. Some joyful, others regretful.
Xiao Xiao lingered, glancing suspiciously between Yuhao and Wang Dong.
"What business do you have that requires sending everyone else away?"
"Getting my soul ring isn't something you can help with," Huo Yuhao waved her off. "While we're gone, you'll be the eldest disciple in the Holy Flame Sect. Keep an eye on them."
Xiao Xiao's little head filled with big question marks.
How did she suddenly become the "child left at home"?
Before she could protest, Ma Xiaotao arrived in a blaze of energy.
Mu En and Xuan Zi were already reclining side by side on lounge chairs under the dormitory building, idly fishing.
"Everyone's here," Mu En murmured like awakening from a dream. "Then let's go. Be quick and return swiftly."
He and Xuan Zi took the lead, soaring skyward.
The others could all fly as well, each using their own means to follow.
In midair, Ma Xiaotao handed two disks to Yuhao and Wang Dong.
"These are level six flying soul tools. On long journeys, they'll greatly save your soul power."
"Thank you, Sister Xiaotao."
Huo Yuhao accepted one of the disks.
Seeing Wang Dong not reach out, brows furrowed as if unwilling, Huo Yuhao assumed he was just being picky.
So he grabbed the other disk from Ma Xiaotao and slapped it onto Wang Dong's chest—mechanical wings instantly unfolded.
Wang Dong stared at Huo Yuhao in shock. As if saying, 'what did you just do?!'
"No need to thank me, just passing it along."
Huo Yuhao waved it off and equipped his own flying soul tool.
He quickly realized it didn't absorb spiritual power, only soul power.
But with his level barely above 20, the consumption was hard to sustain.
He could only rely on spiritual power for flight, using the level six flying soul tool as a glider.
This way, income and expenditure balanced, and he could fly steadily.
Meanwhile, Wang Dong flew along behind, muttering under his breath.
To his surprise, this soul tool saved him over 80% of the soul power he'd normally spend flying with his martial soul.
His rejection of soul tools softened slightly.
But every time he looked at Huo Yuhao, he clenched his teeth.
Who just slaps things on people's chest like that?!
The atmosphere was unbearably awkward.
Huo Yuhao remained oblivious.
But Ma Xiaotao noticed, suspicion flashing in her eyes.
Those two… is there something going on?
Mu En and Xuan Zi saw it all clearly.
Once the two boys adapted to their rhythm,
Mu En summoned his martial soul—the Holy Light Dragon.
The giant dragon head swallowed Huo Yuhao and the others whole, transforming into golden radiance that shot forward at incredible speed.
The land beneath blurred in their vision, beyond their ability to track.
They could only make out Xuan Zi trailing behind, leisurely gnawing on a chicken wing.
This made Huo Yuhao realize the immense gap between himself and the continent's true top powers.
"In the future, they'll all look up to you," the Skydream Iceworm comforted. "With us, you'll become a god. Don't mind this."
"Awe for the strong must remain," Electrolux said.
"Quit the sighing, review the plan. Don't mess up when we get there," Zhuge Lan urged.
At this, the Skydream Iceworm's voice rose sharply.
"Your plan will burn through a huge amount of Fortune Points, right?
With Little Yuhao's mere tens of thousands, is it enough?
Tell me—you've been skimming, haven't you?!"
Zhuge Lan chuckled slyly.
"I knew it! You corrupt!!!
Eat my Binding Wrap!!!"
…
By noon, Mu En had already carried them across half the continent, reaching the area of the Sunset Forest.
According to records,
ten thousand years ago, this was the second-largest soul beast habitat after Star Dou Forest.
Back then, the most prosperous cities, such as Heaven Dou City and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile City, were nearby.
But now, at a glance, not a trace of soul beasts remained. Even the trees grew sparsely, their branches withered, looking close to death.
And though the sun blazed above, the surrounding light grew dimmer and dimmer.
Huo Yuhao sniffed the air, frowning.
"There's something in the atmosphere?"
