Dai Huabin's face was pale. Clearly, that Mental Impact just now had left him in a bad state.

He struggled to sit up. His Storage Soul Tool flashed, and a pouch appeared in his hand.

Han Yu took it without ceremony, hefted it in his hand, and nodded inwardly. The weight was twice that of two thousand Gold Soul Coins. It seemed the amount was right.

"Then this matter ends here. If you still want to challenge me, you're welcome anytime."

With that, Han Yu gave a cold laugh, rose, and walked down from the Soul Duel Stage.

"Zhu Lu, use the family's power."

A hint of madness flashed through Dai Huabin's eyes. He had never suffered such a huge loss before.

Hearing this, Zhu Lu looked troubled and said, "Huabin, this is Shrek Academy after all. If the people of Shrek Academy find out we're secretly hunting down students, the consequences may be very serious."

"What's there to be afraid of? He's just a little new student from the outer court. Could Shrek Academy possibly offend our White Tiger Duke's Mansion for the sake of one new student?"

Dai Huabin's expression was dark. As the son of the White Tiger Duke, suffering such utter humiliation drove him mad in an instant, and killing intent surged in his eyes.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Lu slowly nodded and said, "We can, but Han Yu has been staying inside the academy all this time. If he doesn't leave Shrek Academy, our people will probably have a hard time making a move."

Dai Huabin said without hesitation, "Then we'll wait for him to leave the academy. I refuse to believe he'll never go out for the rest of his life. As long as he dares to go out, then—"

Han Yu, who had returned to the classroom, did not know that because Dai Huabin had lost to him twice, resentment had filled Dai Huabin's heart, and he had decided to use his family's power to assassinate him.

After finishing the theory lesson, Han Yu looked completely satisfied. This was his favorite class. It had greatly improved his ability to identify soul beasts.

"Boss, going to eat?" Yuan Gun Gun came to Han Yu's side with a chuckle.

"Let's go. After we eat, I'll take you to do business. Otherwise, if this keeps up, the two of us will sooner or later turn into paupers."

Han Yu nodded. Thinking of the two of their appetites gave him a headache. He did not necessarily need a lot of money, but he definitely needed some. Without money in his pocket, he felt uneasy.

Yuan Gun Gun needed one hundred Gold Soul Coins for a meal, and he himself needed between thirty and fifty. Calculating at the highest amount...

In a day, they would consume about four hundred Gold Soul Coins.

The money he had on hand would not support the two of them for long.

When it came to food, Han Yu was never stingy. A good body was far beyond what a few Gold Soul Coins could compare to.

So even though he spent money like water every day, he did not feel the slightest pain.

"All right, Boss, I'll listen to you. I'm strong, so it's still no problem for me to work several jobs by myself."

Yuan Gun Gun looked deeply moved. He knew that if not for him, Han Yu would not have to worry about Gold Soul Coins, and he secretly engraved this favor in his heart.

"What work? Working is impossible in this lifetime. We're doing business. Later, you'll be in charge of..."

"This, this, and that. Like this, like that. Got it?"

Han Yu kept gesturing with both hands as he spoke point by point.

Yuan Gun Gun looked stunned and could not help saying, "Boss, if we do this and other people find out the truth, we won't get beaten to death, right?"

"What's there to be afraid of? Absolutely not. Our goods are solid quality. Right now, we only need to use a few tricks to build up popularity."

Han Yu laughed inwardly. It was time to bring a tiny little shock to the culinary world of Douluo Continent.

Since they had something to do, the two ate very quickly, pouring the food into their stomachs in just a few bites.

"Gun Gun, you go prepare the materials I need. I'll go buy some tools. We'll meet at the entrance in twenty minutes."

"Now, disperse."

"Yes, Boss. Leave it to me."

Twenty minutes passed very quickly.

At the entrance of Shrek Outer Court, in a deserted corner.

Two furtive figures appeared, one fat and one thin.

The thin figure lowered his voice and said, "The goods. Did you bring them?"

The fat figure also lowered his voice and said, "I brought them. Inspect them first."

"Very good. The goods are perfect."

"Then act according to the plan. After we leave from here, we'll pretend we don't know each other."

"Understood."

After the brief exchange ended, the thin figure looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to this side, flashed away and merged into the crowd, walking out of the outer court entrance.

About ten minutes passed.

Only then did that chubby figure slowly walk out.

Shrek Outer Court, at the entrance.

"Xiao Yuhao, my task is done. Next, you just sell your grilled fish properly. I'm going to buy something else to eat first."

Tang Ya's voice rang out, and then she ran off excitedly.

Huo Yuhao nodded, then began preparing the grilled fish. Under his practiced hands, every fish was cleaned and readied.

He placed the fish onto the grill and grilled four at once. Very soon, as time passed, the aroma spread out.

Soon, the first customer came up. "Little brother, how much is this fish?"

Huo Yuhao said, "Senior, five Copper Soul Coins each."

That student was very straightforward and directly bought one.

Huo Yuhao, earning money for the first time, was slightly excited, and he soon began grilling even more energetically.

Before long, several more seniors came to buy some. Huo Yuhao had just accepted the money when he was dazzled by the brilliant light across from him.

Then he looked toward the light.

He saw that at some point, across the way, there was now a horizontal signboard glowing in red and blue, constantly giving off light and drawing the attention of the surrounding students.

On it was written, "Uchiha Grilled Fish. First one free, second one half price, one hundred Gold Soul Coins each."

Under the banner, a handsome youth was grilling fish. The grilled fish above the fire was sizzling.

Its surface was golden, with a faint layer of oil flowing over it. One could vaguely see the tender meat inside. A layer of red powder and green chopped scallions covered the top, making anyone who looked at it feel their appetite surge.

The corners of the youth's mouth curved up. Holding a fan, he waved it lightly, and a rich fragrance quickly spread through the entire street.

"One hundred Gold Soul Coins each? Has he gone crazy thinking about money? Would anyone buy that?" Huo Yuhao stared, dumbfounded. Looking at his own price, it instantly stopped seeming appealing.

Because there were too many students, Huo Yuhao did not see the youth under the banner. If he could have seen him, he definitely would have recognized that this person was Han Yu.

"What is this? Is it grilled fish too? It smells so good. The scent seems even better than the one across the way."

"Come on, let's go take a look."

The students who had originally been lining up to wait to buy Huo Yuhao's grilled fish saw that someone behind them was also selling grilled fish, and they immediately could not hold back. They headed toward Han Yu's barbecue stall.

Very soon, it was surrounded so tightly that not even water could get through.

"Junior, how are you selling this grilled fish?"

A senior in a Yellow School Uniform asked.

Han Yu smiled faintly and pointed upward with his right hand.

The senior raised his head and looked, murmuring, "Uchiha Grilled Fish, one hundred Gold Soul Coins each."

Although he did not know what Uchiha was, just hearing the name made it feel anything but simple.

That senior could not help saying, "Junior, did you write it wrong? Shouldn't that 'Gold' be 'Copper'?"

In his view, for grilled fish this fragrant, one hundred Copper Soul Coins was already a very high price.

Han Yu smiled faintly. "Senior, you didn't see wrong. This is the price of my grilled fish."
