"What a pity. I can't take too many of these; otherwise, it will affect my potential. But if I rember correctly, I should still be able to take one more Xuan Shui Pill… I'll have to find a way to get another one.
"As a Soul Master, the further I progress, the slower my cultivation will beco.
"Why didn't that guy write out the full contents of Xuantian Gong? If he had, I could've improved my physique imdiately using my mory alone.
"Even though Xuantian Gong has been mocked a lot, in the world of Douluo, it's the ultimate universal cultivation technique.
"Even a God King reincarnated would still rely on Xuantian Gong as their foundation."
Huo Yuhao got up from bed and walked to the window. As he opened it, a cool breeze swept in, ruffling his hair while mories surged in his mind.
"I wonder how Wang Dong is doing now. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been sent to Sun Moon Empire… Ugh, having Tang San hovering over my head is so frustrating."
A shiver ran down Huo Yuhao's spine.
He definitely didn't want to beco Tang San's lapdog.
Back when he first read the Qiankun Emotion Valley arc and Qiu'er's sacrifice, it traumatized his middle school self.
Tang San's father in law behavior was utterly insane.
He had to orchestrate an elaborate drama where Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er rged to beco Tang Wutong. Before that, there was the whole "Autumn vs. Winter Rivalry" plot… and in the end, the grand reveal turned into a ridiculous case of "I cuckolded myself".
To ta his "dog", Tang San was willing to go to any lengths.
And let's not forget that whole "gods can't interfere with the mortal realm" rule total nonsense.
Tang San interfered countless tis, but of course, as the God King, he didn't have to follow the rules.
Even if soone questioned him, all he had to do was say, "Who dares accuse this God King?!"
Once the Tang Family completed its takeover of the continent, the Douluo Divine Realm basically beca Tang San's personal dictatorship.
After all, he was dual god fused, with Xiao Wu as his sheath.
Later, his son Tang Wulin beca the God of Destruction, and Tang Wulin's wife, Gu Yuena, beca the Goddess of Life.
The new generation's Evil and Kindness Gods were much weaker than their predecessors, and they didn't have full divine inheritances or super artifacts.
They weren't even on Tang San's level.
By the ti Douluo 4 rolled around, his grandson Tang Xuanyu beca the Dragon God, and a thoroughly tad Huo Yuhao beca a God King of the Divine Realm.
In the end, all heroes of the world bowed before Tang San.
A shout from below interrupted his thoughts.
"Huo Yuhao, co down here!"
Huo Yuhao turned his gaze toward the voice and saw Xuan Ziwen standing below. Beside him was a beautiful young girl with wine red hair.
"Teacher Xuan, I'm coming!"
Huo Yuhao imdiately headed downstairs and soon stood in front of them.
"This is ng Hongchen, the granddaughter of Hall Master Jing. She's here to take you to receive your reward," Xuan Ziwen explained.
ng Hongchen? The girl who fell for Wang Dong'er in male disguise?
No doubt about it ng Hongchen was a hardcore face con.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so obsessed with Wang Dong'er's male persona.
According to the novel's descriptions, Huo Yuhao was good looking, but compared to Wang Dong'er's top tier genetics from the Sea God bloodline, he was definitely inferior.
Huo Yuhao recalled ng Hongchen's storyline and looked at her.
"Miss ng, when do we leave?"
He was definitely interested in the reward.
After all, he was broke, and his self defense options were lacking.
Although Tianng Iceworm could forcibly take control in ergencies, the backlash ant he wouldn't be able to use it again for an entire year.
"The sooner, the better. My grandfather is a busy man, so we shouldn't keep him waiting."
ng Hongchen's eyes subtly sized him up as she spoke.
From her perspective, Huo Yuhao was indeed handso, but not so handso that he left her stunned.
However, his talent in soul engineering genuinely surprised her.
"Alright, let's go now."
Huo Yuhao nodded, preparing to leave with ng Hongchen.
Just then, Xuan Ziwen called out to them.
"Wait! Don't go yet.
"Huo Yuhao, I also have a reward for you.
"After all, you broke the academy's fastest Rank 1 Soul Engineer record.
"I see imnse potential in you."
You're giving a reward too? Great, bring it on!
Huo Yuhao's mood instantly lifted as he turned to look at Xuan Ziwen.
With a smile, Xuan Ziwen handed him a card.
"This is a Sun Moon Empire universal card.
"It contains 100,000 gold soul coins a personal gift from .
"I checked your body assessnt data, and your physical condition is lacking.
"Use this money to eat more soul beast at at the academy's cafeteria to nourish yourself."
"Thank you, Teacher Xuan!"
Huo Yuhao accepted the card with a bright smile.
Certain soul beast ats, when properly processed, provided great benefits to cultivation.
However, they were extrely expensive, far beyond what he could previously afford.
And since this card was universally accepted, it also ant his treasure hunting plans could officially begin.
Ti to rely on you, Tianng Iceworm!
Tianng wasn't the strongest, but it had lived the longest.
And with age ca knowledge.
Sure, Tianng spent most of its life asleep, but it was still a million year old soul beast.
If we assu it spent at least 10% of its ti awake, that would still be hundreds of thousands of years of experience.
After all, when it was sucking energy in Star Dou Forest or fleeing from pursuers, it obviously wasn't sleeping.
"Alright, go with ng Hongchen to et the Hall Master.
"Oh, and about your Soul Guidance Flashbang Grenade…
"The academy will conduct an official evaluation of its value.
"Once that's settled, you'll receive a significant payout in gold soul coins."
Xuan Ziwen inford him.
Talented Soul Engineers had always been well supported by him.
Huo Yuhao put away the money card, exchanged a few more words with Xuan Ziwen, and then left with ng Hongchen.
"Grandfather, I brought him.
"By the way, where's Xiao?"
ng Hongchen led Huo Yuhao into Jing Hongchen's residence, only to find her brother missing.
"He's training," Jing Hongchen replied briefly.
Then he turned to Huo Yuhao, his face full of smiles.
"Huo Yuhao, I didn't expect you to break the record.
"You've truly impressed .
"In the future, I'm sure you'll shine in the field of Soul Engineering.
"Perhaps one day, even His Majesty will recognize your talents!"
Although he didn't believe Huo Yuhao would reach Rank 9, he still said the right things.
"Thank you for your kind words, Headmaster," Huo Yuhao responded politely.
Jing Hongchen activated his storage soul tool, and with a flash of white light, two items appeared on the table.
"To reward you, I'm gifting you a Rank 4 defensive soul tool and a Rank 4 storage soul tool."
"These are my own creations…"
