In any case, after unexpectedly learning of the Primordial Beginning Mirror's special use this time,

Huo Yuhao felt immensely delighted.

Because it meant he had another powerful trump card in hand.

Although Huo Yuhao was not certain whether the Primordial Beginning Mirror would truly be effective against Tang San,

no matter what, he had gained another powerful method, hadn't he?

With the Primordial Beginning Mirror,

when Huo Yuhao fought Tang San in the future,

it would naturally be best if he could directly drain all the Divine Power from Tang San's body.

But even if he could not drain it completely,

he could surely use it to block several of Tang San's attacks.

That was already quite good!

Moreover, it was precisely because of this incident

that Huo Yuhao better understood the power of a Holy Artifact.

So what if, in the future, he could open a few more Holy Artifacts from blind boxes?

In that case, Huo Yuhao's chances of successfully defeating Tang San would become even higher.

Huo Yuhao finally returned to the dormitory.

After returning, he quickly washed up.

Once he was done, Huo Yuhao went straight to bed.

But he was not going to sleep.

Although he had exercised intensely throughout the day,

and had even fought Ma Xiaotao using the Primordial Beginning Mirror,

he still did not dare rest.

The first thing he did was inspect the Primordial Beginning Mirror in his Sea of Spirit.

After checking the mirror and discovering that it had not changed at all after absorbing Ma Xiaotao's Soul Power and evil fire,

Huo Yuhao first breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he began checking whether the mirror could use the Soul Power it had absorbed from Ma Xiaotao to help him cultivate.

But this time, Huo Yuhao was disappointed.

The Soul Power absorbed from Ma Xiaotao seemed to have been directly absorbed by the Primordial Beginning Mirror itself. It could not be converted into Primordial Beginning Power and injected into Huo Yuhao's body.

But on second thought, Huo Yuhao felt that made sense.

If he could truly absorb an enemy's Soul Power to aid his own cultivation, that would be far too heaven-defying.

He had indeed been indulging in wishful thinking.

"Since that's the case, I'll eat this thing."

Huo Yuhao withdrew from his Sea of Spirit and quickly took out the Soul Ascension Pill he had received from Teacher Li.

This was actually quite a good item. By Huo Yuhao's understanding, a single pill generally sold for around ten thousand Gold Soul Coins on the market.

The reason it could be sold for such a high price was mainly because every Soul Master could only take one of them.

And the increase it provided to a Soul Master's Soul Power was equivalent to the amount needed to rise from level thirty to level thirty-one.

Huo Yuhao's current Soul Power Level was only level seventeen, so after taking this pill, he might directly rise two or three levels.

Once he reached level twenty, he could obtain a new Soul Ring!

This would be another tremendous improvement for Huo Yuhao.

So after taking out the bottle containing the Soul Ascension Pill, Huo Yuhao did not delay.

He directly poured out the pill from the bottle.

It was a green pill the size of a walnut, giving off a faint medicinal fragrance.

Its surface was emerald green, and a hazy glow seemed to flow within it.

The entire pill looked crystal-clear and full of vitality.

After briefly examining it, Huo Yuhao put it into his mouth.

After chewing it a few times, Huo Yuhao swallowed it and began using the Soul Power within his body to refine the pill's medicinal potency.

This process was naturally rather lengthy, and Huo Yuhao refined it with complete focus.

As he refined the pill, he sat cross-legged with a solemn expression, streaks of spiritual light flickering across his palms.

During this time, Wang Dong also woke up.

Wang Dong had been utterly exhausted today, so she was already asleep when Huo Yuhao returned to the dormitory.

But when she suddenly got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, she never expected to find Huo Yuhao cultivating again upon returning.

"This guy is still cultivating?"

Wang Dong could not help twitching at the corner of her mouth. She checked the time and discovered that it was already two in the morning.

Yet Huo Yuhao was still cultivating, which meant he had not rested at all.

"He ran the hardest today, yet he can still train like this."

"This guy is seriously incredible."

Wang Dong muttered softly to herself.

Even though her pride was through the roof and she had never been convinced by anyone else,

when faced with Huo Yuhao, she had gradually been won over by him.

Because Wang Dong had once tried cultivating the way Huo Yuhao did.

But she felt that if she did that, she would probably break down within just a few days.

After all, Huo Yuhao practically never rested.

He cultivated constantly, and Wang Dong had never seen him entertain himself.

So gradually, even Wang Dong came to admire him.

"Forget it, I won't compare myself to him."

"This guy is too much of a monster. Comparing people really is enough to make you furious. I'd better just lie low in peace."

After letting out a breath, Wang Dong went back to sleep.

Meanwhile,

Huo Yuhao cultivated all the way until the next morning.

When the sun had just risen,

Huo Yuhao also emerged from his cultivation state.

He opened his eyes, which were now filled with intense excitement.

The first thing Huo Yuhao did was take out the Soul Tool He Caitou had given him to check his current Soul Power Level.

After checking, he got the result.

Soul Power Level: Level 19 Innate Soul Power: Level 4

Huo Yuhao was overjoyed on the spot.

Although his Innate Soul Power Level had not increased,

his Soul Power Level had risen by two levels.

Moreover, all of this had happened in just one day.

First, he had used the Holy Spirit Baptism to increase his Soul Power Level by three levels.

Then, he had used the Soul Ascension Pill to raise it another two levels.

So overall, Huo Yuhao had risen five levels in a single day!

That rate of advancement was utterly monstrous.

"One more level, and I can equip my second Soul Ring."

"My strength will improve considerably again then."

"Of course, there's no rush."

"I raised my Soul Power by five levels in a single day yesterday. I still need to temper my body more so my foundation doesn't become unstable."

"I should train more whenever I have the time during this period."

"And I need to convert the Soul Power in my body into Primordial Beginning Power again. After leveling up, I have more Soul Power, so the proportion of Primordial Beginning Power in my body has decreased again."

"Turning all my Soul Power into Primordial Beginning Power will also be a major undertaking."

Huo Yuhao suppressed the excitement in his heart and calmly sorted through and planned things out.

He quickly got up and washed.

Afterward, he attended a full day of classes seriously.

However, after school, Huo Yuhao did not continue training at the field, nor did he go sell fish.

He contacted He Caitou through the Soul Tool and confirmed that He Caitou happened to have time today.

Then he went directly to the Fourth Grade to find Bei Bei and Tang Ya, telling them that he wanted to treat them to dinner tonight.

Huo Yuhao knew very well that although cultivation was important, he also needed to handle social conventions and interpersonal relationships properly.

More importantly, whether it was Tang Ya, Bei Bei, or He Caitou,

they had all treated him well and given him a great deal of help.

And Huo Yuhao had previously promised to treat them to a meal. He could not go back on his word.

Keeping his word and repaying kindness were simply part of Huo Yuhao's character.
