How Strange—Did Huo Yuhao Really Run? Why Wasn't He Tired at All?

"Ring-ring—"

Through the perseverance of their unyielding will,

the students finally made it through an entire class period of running.

As the dismissal bell suddenly rang,

the students who had still been forcing themselves to run around the field

felt the taut string in their hearts suddenly snap.

Thud, thud.

One student after another collapsed to the ground like dominoes.

They sprawled out on the ground, limbs spread wide into big "X" shapes,

drenched in sweat and gasping for air.

Yet Huo Yuhao was still running up ahead.

In truth, he was not tired at all. He even felt that he was in excellent condition right now—he could easily run for another entire class period.

When he glanced back, Huo Yuhao saw that all his classmates had collapsed.

Thinking that he should play along so they would not feel too discouraged,

Huo Yuhao also put on an act and lay down on the ground.

Yet this action of his immediately sparked cheers from the students.

Seeing Huo Yuhao successfully collapse, the students beamed as though they had won a victory.

They cheered excitedly, continuously celebrating their triumph.

"Haha, we finally wore the Class Monitor down!"

"Even though we didn't run as much as he did, we still managed to wear the Class Monitor down by holding on!"

"We won! We won big!"

The students laughed in immense satisfaction.

By now, they knew that surpassing Huo Yuhao in laps was impossible.

But even just seeing Huo Yuhao collapse from exhaustion made them extremely happy.

"Hmph, that bastard isn't invincible after all."

"I thought he wasn't tired yet!"

"I still wore him down!"

Wang Dong smugly rubbed her little nose.

She, too, was so exhausted that her entire body had gone limp, but as long as she saw that Huo Yuhao had also fallen, she felt endless delight in her heart.

"Sorry to trouble you, Teacher Li."

At that moment, a White-Robed Man arrived beside Zhou Yi.

Seeing the man approach, Zhou Yi spoke to him rather politely.

"It's no trouble. Just a small matter."

After letting out a light laugh, the man turned toward the students.

Dazzling Soul Rings rose from beneath his feet one after another.

Two yellow, two purple, and three black—he had a full seven Soul Rings.

After summoning his Soul Rings, the man raised both hands.

Soft green light began to emerge from his palms.

With a casual wave of his hand, a streak of green light shot straight into the bodies of several students ahead.

Those students immediately felt an incomparably comfortable coolness.

That wondrous sensation spread throughout their entire bodies.

After that,

whether it was their previously aching muscles

or the wounds rubbed raw by the Iron Suit,

under the effects of that green light, all of them began to recover at an astonishing rate.

Even their physical strength gradually recovered bit by bit,

while only the Soul Power within their bodies remained completely empty, unaffected by the green light.

The students were all stunned by what they saw.

Especially those few students who had already fully recovered—their bodies felt far stronger than before.

They had trained here until they were utterly exhausted, then had that exhaustion cured by a seven-ring healing Soul Master.

It made every one of them feel as light as a feather.

A few students even achieved breakthroughs in their Soul Power because of it!

"So this was the teacher's arrangement? How thoughtful!"

Many students grew excited at the sight, never expecting this training session to benefit them so greatly.

Before long, they all began lining up, waiting expectantly for the man ahead to help them recover.

Huo Yuhao watched for a while as well.

But after only a few glances, he withdrew his gaze.

He was not tired at all right now, so it made no difference whether he recovered or not.

Besides, for Huo Yuhao,

what he was most curious about now was his Innate Soul Power Level.

After cultivating diligently and absorbing most of the power from the Holy Spirit Baptism,

Huo Yuhao was truly curious whether his Innate Soul Power had improved further.

So he quickly took out the Soul Tool He Caitou had given him and began testing himself.

Beep beep!

After pressing the switch on the Soul Tool, Huo Yuhao directly injected a strand of Soul Power into it.

The data on the Soul Tool began to fluctuate.

The entire test took only a minute or two.

After that, the results were successfully displayed.

"Soul Power Level: Level Seventeen!"

"Innate Soul Power Level: Level Four!"

"It really improved again!"

Seeing the test results appear on the Soul Tool, Huo Yuhao's eyes immediately lit up!

With this round of cultivation and the help of the Holy Spirit Baptism,

his Soul Power Level had directly risen by three levels, while his Innate Soul Power had increased by one level!

That was an exceptionally good result.

"Mm."

"There's still some faint Holy Spirit Power remaining in my body."

"If I have time later, I should absorb some more of it."

"Maybe I can scrape together another level or half a level of progress. It would be a waste to leave it behind."

Huo Yuhao put away the Soul Tool and pondered with a soft chuckle.

He looked once more toward the seven-ring healing Soul Master ahead.

By now, under that teacher's treatment, the students had basically all regained their vigor.

After this grueling training session, the students had grown much closer, and their strength had improved to varying degrees.

Naturally, every one of them was extremely happy.

However, because Huo Yuhao had run so far ahead earlier,

the spot where he was lying was some distance away from the other students, so the teacher had not yet come to treat him.

The students kindly reminded the teacher,

because by now, they had basically all come to acknowledge Huo Yuhao.

With such an outstanding role model as Huo Yuhao leading them, they believed their school life would improve even faster in the future.

Thus, quite a few students reminded the teacher:

"Teacher, our Class Monitor hasn't been treated yet. He's lying over there."

"Yes, yes, Teacher, hurry and treat our Class Monitor. He must be exhausted too."

"That's right, Teacher. Sorry to trouble you."

Hearing this, the White-Robed Man nodded at the students.

Then he walked directly over to Huo Yuhao.

He waved his hand again, summoning a streak of green light.

He then guided the green light into Huo Yuhao's body.

But what happened next was rather strange.

The green light quickly returned from Huo Yuhao's body, and the teacher turned around with a puzzled expression.

The students were even more confused. "Teacher, why aren't you treating our Class Monitor?"

The teacher could only spread his hands helplessly.

"He doesn't need treatment! His physical condition is excellent, and the Soul Power in his body is abundant."

"As far as I can tell, he hasn't expended anything at all."

"How strange. Did he not run during this class?"

"Didn't Teacher Zhou say that all of you ran for an entire class period? Why does his condition seem so different from yours?"
