Good Things Come in Pairs! Soul Power and Innate Soul Power Both Break Through!

Huo Yuhao naturally had no idea

that the social skills he had casually displayed

had left both Zhou Yi and Fan Yu dumbfounded.

He had even less expected

that Zhou Yi had already decided to make him the Class Monitor.

He simply stayed where he was and chatted with He Caitou for a while longer.

When Zhou Yi called his name and signaled that she was taking him back,

he bade farewell to Fan Yu and He Caitou.

Both of them had a very favorable impression of Huo Yuhao.

He Caitou in particular felt an immediate sense of familiarity after speaking with Huo Yuhao.

So, seeing that he was about to leave, he was rather reluctant to part with him. He casually took out a Soul Tool and gave it to Huo Yuhao as a gift.

"Yuhao Didi, take this Soul Tool."

"It's nothing valuable, but it's quite useful. It can be used to detect a Soul Master's Soul Power Level and Innate Soul Power. Consider it a gift to mark our first meeting."

Huo Yuhao also found it very practical, so after the customary back-and-forth required before accepting a gift,

he smiled at He Caitou. "Then I'll accept Big Brother He's gift."

"I can't make Soul Tools, so I don't have any gift to give you. But I'm good at cooking. If there's a chance next time, I'll treat you to Grilled Fish."

He Caitou smiled and nodded.

Then, led by Zhou Yi, Huo Yuhao headed toward the Shrek Academy grounds.

As they traveled, Zhou Yi could not help but marvel.

"You little brat, you're impressive!"

"You really know how to talk. You practically talked He Caitou into a limp."

"Honestly, where did you learn all that?"

What Zhou Yi was referring to was clearly Huo Yuhao's social skills.

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao shook his head. "It's not that complicated. I just thought Big Brother He seemed like a good person, and I sincerely wanted to be friends with him."

Zhou Yi felt even more that Huo Yuhao was mature and worldly beyond his years.

Still, she did not linger on the subject.

After bringing Huo Yuhao back to Shrek Academy, Zhou Yi said, "In any case, you heard what Teacher Fan Yu said just now."

"Yuhao, all I can tell you is that he is one of Shrek Academy's foremost Soul Tool masters. If you can study under him, it will benefit you immensely."

"So work hard from now on."

Huo Yuhao promptly said to Zhou Yi, "Thank you, Teacher, for the introduction."

Zhou Yi smiled and spread her hands at Huo Yuhao, then quickly turned and left.

After calculating the time, Huo Yuhao realized it was already mealtime. He decided to have dinner before returning to cultivate.

He took a stroll through Shrek Academy's Dining Hall, but when he went to get food, he became even more aware of how poor he was.

At this rate, his meager savings would be squandered within days. By then, whether he could even afford to eat would become a problem.

This gave him quite a headache. As he ate, he thought about ways to make money.

Unexpectedly, while eating, he spotted a familiar figure.

It was a lively, cute-looking young girl.

The girl had come to eat as well. Seeing Huo Yuhao there, she sat down directly beside him.

But upon seeing the meager food on Huo Yuhao's tray, she could not help frowning. "Yuhao Didi, you're still growing, aren't you? Why are you eating so little? Are you short on money?"

Huo Yuhao looked toward the girl and only then realized that it was Tang Ya. Looking at his meal, he said awkwardly, "Yeah, things are a little tight right now."

Tang Ya rolled her eyes at him irritably. "Didn't I tell you to come to Bei Bei and me if you had any difficulties? Do you not consider us friends?"

She teased Huo Yuhao, then directly dragged him away to get more food.

Tang Ya seemed rather like a nouveau riche at the moment. Standing beside Huo Yuhao, she said, "Order whatever you want. Big Sister is treating."

Considering that they were indeed quite familiar by now, Huo Yuhao did not stand on ceremony and ordered a little more.

Still, he did not go overboard. He only ordered a modest amount, not wanting Tang Ya to spend too much.

After Tang Ya helped Huo Yuhao order his food, she sat down and ate with him. As they ate, she suddenly said,

"How about this, Yuhao Didi?"

"I'm on good terms with the auntie here who handles the Dining Hall's food purchases. I'll have her buy an extra twenty fish for you every day."

"Then I'll have a grill made for you outside, along with some charcoal. I'll prepare some seasonings for you too."

"After school, you can sell Grilled Fish at the school gate. Your cooking is so good that you'll definitely make money."

"Once you make money, give the auntie the costs. Keep the profits for yourself. You don't need to pay me back. Whenever I'm craving some, just treat me to one or two Grilled Fish now and then."

Huo Yuhao felt that this was feasible. It would neither delay his cultivation nor leave him without enough money to live on, so he accepted Tang Ya's kindness.

He said to Tang Ya, "Then thank you, Tang Ya-jie. Forget one or two fish—whenever you want some, I'll grill as many as you like."

"Mm-hmm. Then I'll head back first. I'll let you know once everything is ready. Oh, right, Bei Bei and I both advanced. You need to work hard too."

Tang Ya said this to Huo Yuhao with a grin, then quickly bid him farewell after finishing her meal.

Huo Yuhao waved back at Tang Ya.

He soon returned to the dormitory.

Without another word, he began cultivating again.

A lot had truly happened that day.

First, Zhou Yi had taken him to the Soul Tool Experiment Zone after school.

Afterward, he had met He Caitou and Fan Yu.

But it was precisely because of these events that Huo Yuhao realized his current strength was still insufficient.

On the way to the Soul Tool Experiment Zone, he had witnessed the power of a Soul Emperor for the first time.

That made Huo Yuhao even more wary of Tang San's strength.

Not to mention that Huo Yuhao had made an agreement with Fan Yu afterward.

So after returning to the dormitory, Huo Yuhao truly did not dare relax in the slightest.

After adjusting himself, he immediately began cultivating in earnest.

"Why is this guy cultivating again?"

"Is he a robot? Doesn't he get tired?"

"Seriously, he's already like this and still working so hard. Isn't that way too intense?"

Wang Dong had not been in the dormitory when Huo Yuhao first returned.

But while he cultivated, Wang Dong came back.

As a result, the moment she returned, she saw Huo Yuhao cultivating like mad.

She immediately felt a little depressed.

Huo Yuhao was simply working too hard.

At this rate, when would she ever catch up to him?

"Hmph! I'm cultivating too. I refuse to let you, you Dirty Scoundrel, leave me behind!"

After thinking it over, Wang Dong's competitive spirit took over.

Suppressing her fatigue, she began cultivating as well.

But she could not hold on after only a few hours.

This kind of cultivation was far too boring, and she had already been exhausted from the day. As she cultivated, she could no longer endure it and simply fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao continued cultivating seriously.

He cultivated through the entire night once more.

He completed the conversion of several strands of Primordial Beginning Power. By now, the Primordial Beginning Power in his body accounted for one-third of his total Soul Power.

If he continued cultivating, it would not be long before he converted all of his Soul Power into Primordial Beginning Power.

Ding!

His Soul Power cultivation had improved as well.

After cultivating bitterly through the night, the Soul Tool He Caitou had given him suddenly let out a ding.

Huo Yuhao opened his eyes in surprise.

When he opened the Soul Tool and looked, he discovered that his Soul Power Level had increased as well.

He had successfully reached Level Fourteen.

Of course, that was not what excited him the most.

What excited him most was another entry beneath Level Fourteen.

It recorded Huo Yuhao's Innate Soul Power Level.

And at that moment, it read: Innate Soul Power: Level Three!
