With a flash of the screen, the image reappeared, and Parallel World Huo Yuhao once again entered the sight of the Soul Masters within the Plane Crack.

Seeing Parallel Yuhao in the image once more, the Soul Masters within the Plane Crack immediately felt somewhat nostalgic.

Although they had not watched Huo Yuhao of the Original World for very long,

the experience had been nothing short of torture for the people within the Plane Crack.

Huo Yuhao of the Original World had simply been far too pathetic.

Not only had he been bullied by the Duchess in the Duke's Mansion for several more years, but he had even joined trash like the Tang Sect afterward and signed an Indentured Contract.

Many Soul Masters had found themselves unable to keep watching.

But Huo Yuhao of the Parallel World was certainly different.

At the same age, he had rescued his mother and even slaughtered every last person in the Duke's Mansion.

His abilities and temperament were clearly not something Huo Yuhao of the Original World could compare to.

The sort of rotten things that had happened to Original Timeline Huo Yuhao would most likely not happen to him.

Therefore, everyone was much more eager to see how Parallel World Huo Yuhao would develop from here on.

"Come to think of it..."

"I remember that before the image cut off, Parallel Huo Yuhao had already raised both his Innate Soul Power and Soul Power to Rank Ten, right?"

"So what happens after that? How does he plan to arrange his future?"

Bibi Dong looked expectantly at the screen.

Meanwhile, within the image,

after raising his cultivation to Soul Power Rank Ten,

Huo Yuhao faced his first major challenge—the selection of a Soul Ring.

He needed to obtain his First Soul Ring as soon as possible so that he could advance beyond Soul Power Rank Ten.

Otherwise, his cultivation would remain stuck at Rank Ten and be unable to improve. Completing this task quickly had thus become Huo Yuhao's top priority.

Yet Huo Yuhao would not rashly run off to hunt Soul Beasts because of this.

After all, once a Soul Ring was attached, it would be used for the rest of one's life.

At this point, he did not possess enough knowledge to help him select a Soul Ring.

The moment he thought about obtaining a Soul Ring, he was completely at a loss. He had never studied such matters and had even less idea how he should choose his first Soul Ring.

So that night, Huo Yuhao lay in bed thinking until late into the night.

It was not until early the next morning that Huo Yuhao discussed the matter with his mother.

He wanted to attend school.

There were all kinds of academies across the Douluo Continent, and at his age, he already met the qualifications to enroll in one of the continent's junior academies.

Once he had learned enough at a junior academy, he could then advance to a senior academy for further study.

That way, he would have basically mastered all the theoretical knowledge he needed. It would lay a solid foundation for him and be greatly beneficial to his future development.

"Mm, then do as you wish." His mother, Huo Yun'er, naturally supported Huo Yuhao's choice from beginning to end.

She also believed it was necessary for Huo Yuhao to attend school, so she immediately agreed to his proposal.

Thus, Huo Yuhao left home and began by asking around the village for information.

Bibi Dong said, "Mm, very rational. He did not rashly choose to go obtain a Soul Ring. He made the right choice."

Qian Renxue said, "As expected, Huo Yuhao of the Parallel World is much smarter. Watching him grow really is a pleasure."

Huo Yuhao felt somewhat awkward when he saw this.

He suddenly realized that compared to his Parallel World Self, he seemed like an idiot.

When he had gone to the Star Dou Great Forest before, he had possessed absolutely no knowledge at all.

He had not known what a spiritual-type Soul Beast was or what a strength-type Soul Beast was.

He had known nothing whatsoever about what effects different Soul Beasts could provide after becoming Soul Rings.

Yet under those circumstances, he had charged straight into the Star Dou Great Forest like a reckless fool.

If he had not been lucky enough to encounter the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm,

he would most likely have been solo-killed by that ten-year Wind Baboon!

Even if he had suddenly erupted with power and killed the Wind Baboon,

there was also a high chance that, after killing that ten-year Wind Baboon, he would have simply absorbed it as well.

If that had happened, his future would have been ruined.

Huo Yuhao had never considered these things before.

But after seeing what his Parallel World Self had done, he realized it.

He now understood just how foolish his previous actions had been.

Fortunately, he had been lucky.

Otherwise, he truly would have been ruined.

At that thought, he let out another breath.

"Sure enough, I still have so much to learn."

"Compared to me in the Parallel World, I'm far inferior."

He continued looking at the screen.

After asking around, Huo Yuhao learned about several junior academies from the villagers.

However, he did not rush to make a choice. He first thanked the villagers, then went to a nearby city to make further inquiries.

He naturally obtained much more information in the city. Yet when choosing a school this time, aside from considering whether the school itself was good enough, Huo Yuhao had another major consideration: it had to be as close to home as possible.

Having finally escaped the Duke's Mansion, Huo Yuhao's greatest wish at this point was to spend more time living with his mother. Besides, he was not at ease leaving her alone in the village.

Therefore, the school he chose had to be close enough for him to commute. If necessary, he was even willing to spend some money on a transportation Soul Tool.

But being able to commute was his bottom line. It absolutely could not be changed.

Because of that condition, the range of schools he could choose from became much smaller.

He spent an entire day making inquiries. Only when the sky began to darken did he hurriedly return home to eat with his mother.

Early the next morning, he left home once again and visited the three schools he had carefully selected the previous day, inspecting them one by one.

He visited three schools in a single day and ultimately chose the one closest to the village. He handled the matters with the school himself, paid the registration fee, received his Student ID, and agreed to return the next day to begin attending classes.

Afterward, he specifically went into the city and bought a Soul Tool for travel. This Soul Tool was not high-grade, but it was more than sufficient for transportation.

Huo Yuhao roughly calculated that with the help of this Soul Tool, traveling between home and school each day would take only around half an hour one way, so long as he was not delayed by anything along the way. That was a length of time he could accept.
