The Rebirth of the Supreme King Dong'er

Although she had no specialized method for using spiritual power, Wang Dong'er had devoured Tang San's divine sense. In the end, brute force was enough. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had forcibly taken control of Huo Yuhao's body without making any precautions, so removing him was very simple.

Once Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was on guard, she would no longer be able to do this.

Having finally regained control of his body, Huo Yuhao felt an inexplicable, long-lost sense of emotion.

It had been understandable during the earlier crisis, but now that there was clearly no danger, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had still forcibly taken over his body just to ask a question. Huo Yuhao could not help feeling a lingering fear.

"Huo Yuhao, do you remember the story you told?" Wang Dong'er asked.

Huo Yuhao nodded.

"Then, would you forget why you joined Shrek Academy?"

"How could I?!" Huo Yuhao clenched his fists. "I will never forget that day."

"Then." Wang Dong'er held out her hand. "Sky Dream Ice Silkworm does indeed have the ability to push you toward becoming stronger. I will not deny that. But if you follow me, I can let you gain the strength to take revenge on them faster. Do you want to make a deal?"

"Do you want me to join the Clear Sky Sect?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"No." Wang Dong'er shook her head. "You do not need to join the Clear Sky Sect. I think highly of the accomplishments you could achieve with Soul Tools. So, you help me, and I will help you gain the power to take revenge on those people faster. That is the deal."

Wang Dong'er herself had no talent for researching Soul Tools, nor had she ever intended to learn how to make them.

And Huo Yuhao, this Child of Destiny, happened to be capable of shining in this field.

Of course, the system mission had also said that after guiding Huo Yuhao into the world of Soul Tools, there was a chance she would gain his loyalty.

Although Wang Dong'er would not learn to make Soul Tools, some of her ideas regarding them could still be put to the test.

Huo Yuhao fell into deep thought.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm kept calling out, "Yuhao, Brother can help you become a god. Once that happens, wouldn't taking whatever revenge you want be easy?"

"And I even have a surprise for you regarding your second martial soul." However, when he mentioned that surprise, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's tone was slightly unsteady, and Huo Yuhao, now sharpened to such things, caught it precisely.

"Enough, Brother Sky Dream. You do not need to say any more." Huo Yuhao made up his mind. "You saw it too. Wang Dong'er and even Xiao Xiao were not people who had known each other for a long time, yet she was still willing to stay behind and stop that crazed inner-court senior sister so Xiao Xiao could escape."

"At the very least, her character is worthy of our trust. Besides, doesn't she already know everything about your situation?"

"Sigh, fine. I guessed long ago that she was someone who could see through fate, but I never expected her to know so much. She even knows that I like Ice..." Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly stopped, piquing Huo Yuhao's curiosity.

Earlier, when Wang Dong'er had mentioned that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm liked some Ice Jade something, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had stopped her from continuing. Now he had brought it up himself. Could it be that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had someone he liked?

No, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was a soul beast, so the one he liked should also be a soul beast...

Huo Yuhao felt as though his thoughts had never moved so quickly before.

Recalling Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's repeated mentions of the second martial soul, Huo Yuhao finally came to a conclusion.

Since Sky Dream Ice Silkworm wanted eternal life, could it be that he wanted the soul beast he liked to obtain eternal life as well?

So, would his still-unformed second martial soul allow that soul beast to take residence within it?

Wang Dong'er had never expected that the words she had used to bluff Sky Dream Ice Silkworm would instead make Huo Yuhao misunderstand Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

Whatever Huo Yuhao thought, he did not show it again, nor did he wish to keep thinking about such matters.

Just then, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly noticed that the gray bead within Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness seemed to twitch.

At the same moment, Huo Yuhao was suddenly struck by a bad premonition.

He lost control of his body once more.

Across from Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er also noticed something strange about him.

His eyes gradually turned gray. This obvious change made Wang Dong'er realize at once that Electrolux had likely awakened!

"To think that this old man still has a wisp of remnant soul remaining." Huo Yuhao shook his head, but the tone that came from his mouth was ancient and grave.

"Are you Electrolux?" Wang Dong'er stared intently at Huo Yuhao as she asked.

"Electrolux?" Huo Yuhao was silent for a moment before raising his head as if coming to a sudden realization. "So that is this old man's name. I did not expect you to know it."

"Little girl, if this old man's perception is not mistaken, you seem to possess divine sense as well."

Seeing Wang Dong'er's tightly furrowed brows, "Huo Yuhao" shook his head and smiled. "Do not worry. Neither that bug nor this child, whose eyes have been blinded by hatred and suspicion, knows of the conversation between you and me at this moment."

"Is that so?" Wang Dong'er said thoughtfully. "Then, Holy Necromancer known as the Calamity of the Undead, who came from the Holy Demon Continent, what guidance do you have for me now that you have come to see me?"

"Huo Yuhao" shook his head again, not minding that Wang Dong'er had directly revealed his identity. "Guidance is out of the question. Rather, this old man ought to thank you."

"Hm?" Wang Dong'er was rather surprised. "Thank me? What did I do?"

"When you used that divine sense to drive away the big bug's control over this child, it also happened to awaken my divine sense."

"It is somewhat embarrassing to say. That divine sense of yours had already become pure energy, something that should have been absorbed by you. But this old man was not conscious at the time and instinctively absorbed a little of it. Only then was I able to awaken my divine sense and recover part of my memories."

So that was it. Wang Dong'er nodded in understanding.

Is Electrolux Leaving Huo Yuhao?

"Little girl, this old man has an unreasonable request. Could you hear me out?"

"Please, go ahead." Wang Dong'er nodded.

"I hope to remain with you for the time being and absorb that pure divine-sense energy to restore my soul," Electrolux said. "Of course, this request is far too presumptuous. In compensation, I can impart all that I have learned in my life to you."

"Furthermore, this wisp of my soul can reside within an item possessing spirituality. Even without spirituality, I can temporarily attach myself to it for a time. With the replenishment of your divine-sense energy, there will be no danger of my soul dissipating. Once we find an item with spirituality in the future, I can transfer to it."

"That way, you won't have to worry about me causing mischief in your Sea of Consciousness."

"Since you know my title, you must have some understanding of who I was in life. The decision is entirely yours. Even if you are unwilling to grant me this convenience, as compensation for absorbing your spiritual awareness energy earlier, you may make one request of me, so long as it is within my power."

Though both spoke of compensation, Electrolux was entirely different from Shrek Academy.

Moreover, the sincerity in Electrolux's words was far beyond anything Shrek Academy could compare to.

Just as Wang Dong'er pretended to deliberate, the system panel suddenly appeared.

Mission: Portable Old Grandpa

Mission Description: (Your upcoming choice will affect Electrolux's future fate. God's Chosen One, please choose carefully.) Calamity of the Undead, Holy Necromancer Electrolux wishes to attach himself to you. Your decision is:

1. Accept Electrolux and receive a mysterious reward related to the power of light.

2. Refuse Electrolux and receive a mysterious reward related to the power of darkness.

"Senior Electrolux speaks with such sincerity that I naturally understand. This spiritual awareness energy is of very limited use to me anyway; I can only make shallow use of it and absorb it. Since it is useful to you, Senior, I can share some with you," Wang Dong'er said.

"However, I truly have no intention of letting someone stay in my Sea of Consciousness, so I can only trouble Senior Electrolux to remain temporarily within my Clear Sky Token." As she spoke, Wang Dong'er took the little golden hammer back out of her Storage Soul Tool.

"Good. Since you trust this old man, little girl, this old man naturally will not disappoint you. I have occupied this child's body long enough already, so I shall leave first. However, I have one more favor to ask."

"Please speak, Senior."

"This child was, after all, the first to give this old man's remnant soul a place to reside. I would also like to offer him some small compensation. I see that his use of Spiritual Power is still rather rudimentary, and I hope that you can guide him on my behalf in the future."

"Consider it done." Wang Dong'er agreed readily. Huo Yuhao was going to come work as her Soul Tool researcher anyway. His attainments in Spiritual Power should have gone further to begin with, so this was nothing much.

"Also, little girl, there is no need to mention this old man's disappearance. I will thoroughly erase every trace I have left upon this child. Even that big bug will remember nothing."

"Mm." Wang Dong'er nodded, her opinion of Electrolux rising another notch.

In the original story, Huo Yuhao had actually had a chance to revive Electrolux, his true teacher, later on. Yet for some unknown reason—perhaps Tang San's might—Electrolux vanished without a trace. Just like the God of Destruction and Goddess of Life ten thousand years later, their original hope of revival had been utterly extinguished with Tang Wulin's return.

Now, it seemed Electrolux truly was a wise and noble elder, much like Yao Chen from another world.

"Very well, that is all this old man needed to say. I may fall into slumber for some time afterward. Little girl, it would be best not to place the object housing my soul inside that Spatial Magic Device."

Magic device was the term used on the Holy Demon Continent. Electrolux had only needed one glance to know that this Storage Soul Tool served a similar purpose.

"Alright. Then please enter the Clear Sky Token, Senior. Unless there are special circumstances, I will carry it with me at all times."

"Do not worry. I will not sleep for long; I merely need to recover some strength." As he spoke, a stream of gray air emerged from Huo Yuhao's body and drilled into the little golden hammer Wang Dong'er had taken out.

Wang Dong'er wrapped up the little golden hammer and placed it in her clothing pocket, then looked toward Huo Yuhao.

After Electrolux left, Huo Yuhao showed no obvious changes. He merely closed his eyes, stood there for a while, and only then slowly woke up.

"Wang Dong'er? Did I just fall asleep?"

"Mm." Wang Dong'er nodded. "You were probably tired from overusing your power. Let's go to the classroom. It's time for me to fulfill my promise today."

Is it about Soul Tools? Huo Yuhao secretly wondered.

Wang Dong'er had said she thought highly of his talent with Soul Tools. Perhaps it was because of his rare spiritual-type martial soul?

It seemed his martial soul truly gave him an advantage when it came to Soul Tools.

If that was the case, then he definitely could not waste his talent in Soul Tools.

If he achieved success in cultivating Soul Tools, it would surely be of great use to his revenge as well.

It seemed he would have to put more effort into Soul Tools.

However, Wang Dong'er had directly asked Xiao Xiao, whereas she used a transaction as an excuse with him... Could it be because he had joined the Tang Sect?

Lost in such wild thoughts, Huo Yuhao gradually followed Wang Dong'er back to the freshman teaching building, even ignoring Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's strange cries in his Sea of Consciousness.

When they returned to the classroom, quite a bit of time had already been wasted because of Ma Xiaotao's attack and the argument with Yan Shaozhe. The classroom was now nearly full, with only the seat beside Xiao Xiao still saved for Wang Dong'er.

Seeing Xiao Xiao wave at her, Wang Dong'er walked straight over.

Huo Yuhao had not cared much at first, but when everyone's gazes converged on him, he inexplicably felt his nose redden. He could only slink away and find himself a seat.

It must just be my imagination... Huo Yuhao thought to himself, unable to help recalling the cannon Wang Dong'er had pulled out on the Soul Duel Stage earlier.

Since it could break that senior's defense, why didn't she use it before... Forget it. Maybe there was some other reason.

Within Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness, ten golden rings slowly flickered as Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's voice gradually sounded. "Yuhao, don't you feel like we've forgotten something?"

"Forgotten something? No?" Huo Yuhao paused, then continued drifting into his thoughts after replying to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

"Strange. Why does big brother keep feeling like I've forgotten something... Ah, forget it. If I forgot it, then it probably wasn't important." Sky Dream Ice Silkworm returned to his previous cheerful demeanor.

The previously noisy classroom suddenly fell silent as Zhou Yi strode inside.

This time, she still was not wearing her Human Skin Mask, as though she had decided to give up on that utterly meaningless act.

Her reason for wearing the Human Skin Mask had been to maintain her authority as a teacher, but her authority had long since been trampled into the mud by Wang Dong'er. What authority did she have left to speak of?

Book recommendation: "Douluo: What Kind of Nonsense Is This Academic Overachiever Training System?"

Good news: He transmigrated to the Douluo Continent.

Bad news: His Innate Soul Power was only rank two, and his martial soul was a willow branch.

Good news: He had a system.

Bad News: It's the Academic Ace Development System

Chen Ping: "What kind of system can't allocate points?!"

System: "Boss, cultivation is thirty percent training, seventy percent eating, and the remaining ninety percent left to academic ace black technology. Win, and nine dragons will protect your body as you ascend to the Divine Realm. Lose, and nine dragons will pull your coffin as you ascend to the Underworld. Now let me see where your limits lie!"

Zhou Yi's Confusion, Shrek's Compensation

Although she had entered the classroom, Zhou Yi seemed somewhat lost.

After being taken away by Yan Shaozhe, she had also learned what had happened.

Wang Dong'er was the young mistress of the Clear Sky Sect. No matter what, she could not touch Wang Dong'er, nor could she harbor any resentment toward her.

As for her teaching methods, Yan Shaozhe had not said much. However, Zhou Yi knew that her freedom to expel students whenever and wherever she pleased would most likely be curtailed and restricted.

Still, that alone was not enough to leave her so bewildered.

What truly confused Zhou Yi was that she had suddenly realized that, without running drills, she did not even know how to begin training Class One's students.

It was as though her life had been reduced to nothing but running. Once she was separated from it, she no longer knew how to train physical fitness.

Seeing Zhou Yi standing at the podium with such a lost and flustered expression, the students had no idea what kind of madness had seized her this time and did not dare speak up.

Only after quite a while did Zhou Yi finally snap out of it. Realizing that she had wasted a great deal of time, she could only begin by explaining some basic knowledge.

When the dismissal bell rang, the students of Class One finally made it through that miserable lesson.

Honestly, they would rather have had Zhou Yi make them run. That class had been far too agonizing.

"...Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Huo Yuhao, you three stay behind. Everyone else may go eat."
