Holy Spirit Baptism! Soul Power Breakthrough!

She did not remain outside for long.

Zhou Yi quickly walked into the classroom.

Looking at the students who were genuinely studying hard, a rare, gentle smile appeared on Zhou Yi's face.

She soon stepped onto the podium and said:

"Students, I am very satisfied with your performance today."

"Especially some of you who came to the classroom early to study on your own even though the teacher had not assigned any homework. That is a very good habit."

"I hope everyone can keep it up in the future."

The students who had previously begun trying to study under Huo Yuhao's influence immediately became very happy.

After all, this was the first time they had been praised by Zhou Yi.

As a result, they looked at Huo Yuhao with gratitude in their eyes.

Although Huo Yuhao did not think he deserved much credit, seeing everyone like this, he still returned their looks with a gentle smile.

This gesture immediately earned him even more goodwill from the other students.

Especially among the girls, who smiled even more brightly upon seeing Huo Yuhao like this, their fondness for him growing deeper.

Huo Yuhao continued looking up at Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi said:

"Through my observations, my assessment of your abilities, and yesterday's test."

"I have concluded that Huo Yuhao is currently the most outstanding student in the class."

"Therefore, I announce that from this moment onward, he will be the Class Monitor of Freshman Class One."

As soon as her words fell, the entire room went silent.

A moment later, someone began clapping, clearly very satisfied with Huo Yuhao becoming Class Monitor.

After all, Huo Yuhao's excellence was now plain for every student in the class to see.

They all knew how outstanding Huo Yuhao was, so they were completely convinced by having someone like him serve as Class Monitor.

"Thank you, everyone. I hope that in the future, we can study hard and improve together."

Huo Yuhao also stood and said a few words to everyone.

He was equally delighted.

After all, had he not worked so hard for so long just to obtain the blind box reward after being elected Class Monitor?

Now, he had finally completed the task.

He wondered what reward he would get from the blind box this time.

He quickly sat back down.

Then, he called out to the system in his mind.

"System, check the task progress."

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the system's voice rang out again.

Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have successfully completed the task: Become Class Monitor!

Reward obtained: Blind Box ×1

Open the blind box immediately?

The system asked Huo Yuhao a question.

Huo Yuhao did not hesitate in the slightest. Opening a blind box was quick, and he truly could not wait to find out what reward he would receive from it.

He gave the system an order.

"Open it."

Ding!

The blind box has been opened!

Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the reward: Holy Spirit Baptism!

Reward effect description:

A unique baptism ritual from Tianwu Continent, extremely precious.

After receiving the Holy Spirit Baptism, all of the Host's abilities—such as appearance, temperament, strength, Soul Power, Innate Soul Power, spiritual power, and so on—will undergo transformation.

However, considering that the Host's physical body is still too weak, you may not be able to fully absorb the power of the baptism within a short period of time.

It is recommended that the Host carry out extensive physical training afterward, allowing your body to better absorb the power of this Holy Spirit Baptism.

The system's voice rang out again.

Along with it came the description and recommendation for this reward.

Huo Yuhao was overjoyed upon hearing it.

He was also extremely satisfied with the reward he had obtained this time.

He knew very well that he had only just begun cultivating.

So now was the best time to build a foundation.

Compared to obtaining some especially powerful soul skills,

Huo Yuhao felt that rewards like this, which could increase his own potential, were far more meaningful to him.

Anyone who had played a development game understood this.

Potential was something that had to be maxed out from the very beginning.

Only then would one become stronger as they continued to grow.

It was like constructing a building.

Only with a solid foundation could one build a sturdy, flawless structure.

Otherwise, if the foundation was unstable, once the upper floors got too high, the whole building would be ruined.

Therefore, Huo Yuhao truly loved this reward.

Ding! Beginning the Holy Spirit Baptism.

The system's voice rang out once more.

As its words fell, a strange energy suddenly appeared out of nowhere and flowed into Huo Yuhao's body.

Affected by this energy, Huo Yuhao felt that his physical body, spiritual power, and abilities in every aspect had improved considerably.

But just as the system had said before,

he was still too weak, and his absorption of the energy was too slow.

If he wanted to truly absorb the power of the Holy Spirit Baptism, it would be best to supplement it with physical training.

Thinking of this, he even wanted to head straight to the training field and start running.

He looked toward Zhou Yi on the podium, intending to see what lesson she planned to teach today.

Unexpectedly, after announcing his position as Class Monitor, Zhou Yi turned and left, leaving them with only one sentence.

"Everyone, stand up. Assemble at the training field."

Huo Yuhao quickly stood up and led the students to Shrek Academy's training field.

Only then did they discover that Zhou Yi had already prepared everything in advance.

A pile of iron chains lay in front of where she stood.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhou Yi pointed at the chains before her.

"These are specially made Iron Suits, designed specifically to improve your physical fitness."

"One for each of you. Put them on, then start running laps around the training field."

"From now until the dismissal bell rings, keep running."

"This time, you may use Soul Power, but you may not use soul skills."

"You will be ranked by the number of laps you complete. The last-place student will be punished."

After finishing, Zhou Yi handed Huo Yuhao an Iron Suit made of thick iron chains.

Huo Yuhao took it with one hand and put it on.

After sensing its weight for a moment, Huo Yuhao estimated that the thing weighed at least thirty jin.

But he did not feel troubled by it. Instead, his eyes lit up.

Having just received the Holy Spirit Baptism, he needed intense physical training to help him absorb its energy.

Wasn't this weighted training exactly what he needed?

With that thought, Huo Yuhao stepped forward. After tightening the Iron Suit around himself, he began to run.

As he sprinted forward at full speed, he continuously circulated the Tian Xuan Gong within his body.

As sweat dripped endlessly from him, Huo Yuhao could sense every bit of flesh and blood in his body frantically absorbing the energy brought by the Holy Spirit Baptism.

He kept running without pause, quickly opening up a gap between himself and the students behind him.

Yet Huo Yuhao's speed did not weaken in the slightest. Instead, in order to better absorb the Holy Spirit Power, he grew faster and faster!

Boom!

He continued running forward.

Then suddenly, a faint sound rang out from within his body.

Upon hearing it, Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up. Soon after, he felt an incomparably invigorating sensation rise from inside him.

He could not help but laugh.

Because he knew very well that this was a sign that his Soul Power had broken through!

His Soul Power had successfully broken through to level fifteen!
