"Thank you, Brother Sky Dream."
Watching himself being fought over by the two major departments in the Heavenly Curtain, just like Shao Zhuang, Huo Yuhao's formerly timid and sensitive disposition changed somewhat.
Nothing could give a young man newfound confidence more effectively than a display of his bright future prospects.
After enduring years of cold stares and mistreatment, Huo Yuhao's heart had long since become twisted. He was extreme and cared especially deeply about what others thought of him.
This personality had been forged through years of accumulated hardship. It was absolutely not something that could be changed overnight.
What pleased Huo Yuhao now was not that distant hope of becoming a god, but seeing that his chances of taking revenge on the Duke's Mansion had increased.
"You're welcome, Yuhao~ What's with the formalities between us?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said with a grin inside the Spiritual Sea of Consciousness.
In truth, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt somewhat regretful.
He had never expected that the martial soul of that human boy nearby back then would be the legendary Son of the Dragon God, Bi'an.
As far as he knew, the divine beast Bi'an also possessed a spiritual attribute, and an extraordinarily remarkable one at that.
If he had chosen the other boy back then, that boy's chances of becoming a god would certainly have been far greater than Huo Yuhao's.
But unfortunately, what was missed was missed. He had already become Huo Yuhao's Wisdom Soul Ring, and there was no changing that.
All he could do was wholeheartedly assist Huo Yuhao and strive to fulfill the God Creation Plan.
"Mm-hmm, Brother Sky Dream." Huo Yuhao spoke excitedly.
Then he hurriedly found a secluded spot to continue watching the Heavenly Curtain. He still was not accustomed to being watched by so many people.
If he went back to the dormitory, he would not be able to immediately learn what the Heavenly Curtain revealed.
What if Mu En's upcoming monologue contained scenes related to him?
Wouldn't it be such a pity if he missed them?
"Wow, Beibei. I never expected the two junior disciples we met back then to be so extraordinary."
On the third-year teaching building of the outer academy, Tang Ya looked at the spirited Shao Zhuang and Huo Yuhao in the Heavenly Curtain with great surprise.
She had never expected the potential of those two boys they had encountered in the wilderness a few days ago to be more exaggerated than the other's.
Especially Huo Yuhao, who had even joined their Tang Sect and become one of them.
"Yes, junior brother Yuhao has joined our Tang Sect too. It looks like Teacher Xiaoya is overjoyed."
Seeing Tang Ya's happiness, Beibei was happy for her as well.
Naturally, he knew Tang Ya's wish: to restore the Tang Sect.
But over these past few years, the results had been negligible. The Tang Sect had always consisted of only him and Tang Ya.
Yet now that Huo Yuhao had joined them, things had changed.
Wasn't this a wonderful beginning?
"That's right! I believe that one day, I will restore the Tang Sect." Tang Ya spoke with absolute determination.
Tang Ya usually gave people the impression of being carefree and rather innocent, but in truth, she was stronger than anyone imagined.
And the fire of vengeance buried deep within her heart would one day be impossible to conceal, erupting completely.
"Ah~ Huo Yuhao actually has Twin Martial Souls, and his Second Martial Soul is the legendary Extreme Ice!"
Yan Shaozhe, who had been preparing to visit Shao Zhuang at the freshmen dormitory, could not help feeling upset as he watched Huo Yuhao in the Heavenly Curtain.
What was wrong with these students these days? Why were they all so obsessed with Soul Tools?
For Soul Masters, wasn't that putting the cart before the horse?
Although, based on what the Heavenly Curtain had revealed, Huo Yuhao had initially failed to become a Core Disciple of their Martial Soul Department due to insufficient talent.
Then, because he possessed excellent talent for making Soul Tools, the Soul Tool Department had accepted him as a Core Disciple.
Finally, after he displayed his true talent as a Soul Master, their Martial Soul Department had changed their minds and begun fighting over him.
Looking over the whole sequence, the Martial Soul Department had indeed acted poorly, but Yan Shaozhe felt that it was no big deal.
A student with such exceptional talent had to be fought for, no matter what.
Besides, at this point, the events revealed by the Heavenly Curtain had not yet happened.
How could things that had not happened possibly count?
Therefore, Yan Shaozhe certainly had to fight for this student who would awaken the Extreme Ice martial soul, Ice Scorpion, in the future.
Not only for their Martial Soul Department, but also for his student who suffered from Evil Fire.
I should go now and settle this matter directly.
Thus, Yan Shaozhe abandoned his original plan to head to the freshmen dormitory.
After all, Shao Zhuang's future was basically set in stone. Though he would be a Core Disciple of both departments, there was no doubt that the Martial Soul Department would take priority while the Soul Tool Department would be secondary.
But Huo Yuhao was different. He would later become a Core Disciple of the Soul Tool Department, completely unrelated to their Martial Soul Department.
So only by trying to persuade Elder Mu now could he truly change what would happen in the future.
Unfortunately, Yan Shaozhe had not realized that after the Heavenly Curtain revealed information about Shao Zhuang, Xian Lin'er had already made her move.
Her original intention had been to have her teacher continue allowing her junior brother to retain his future status as a Core Disciple of the Soul Tool Department.
And she had succeeded quite easily in this matter.
After all, that was what happened in the future, so Mu En naturally proceeded according to the decision he would make in the future.
If he was interested in Soul Tools and they would not interfere with his Martial Soul Department classes or his own cultivation, then why could he not study Soul Tools?
Although Mu En was the oldest among Shrek Academy's Elders, he was also the most open-minded and willing to try new things.
"Teacher, look at that child named Yuhao. In the future, it was you who agreed to let him become only a Core Disciple of our Soul Tool Department..."
Before Mu En, Xian Lin'er was completely unlike her usual decisive and forceful self, instead looking like an obedient student.
After hearing Xian Lin'er's words, Mu En naturally understood what his student was trying to say.
He slowly said, "The Soul Tool Department does indeed need a qualified member of the new generation to be cultivated as its pillar."
The meaning was already obvious. Huo Yuhao would continue to be trained in the Soul Tool Department, just as the Heavenly Curtain had shown, and nothing would change.
"Thank you, Teacher!" Xian Lin'er was overjoyed.
Compared to the Heavenly Curtain's predictions, this reality firmly held in her hands felt much more tangible.
A Twin Martial Soul possessor with an ultimate-attribute martial soul, who also had outstanding talent as a Soul Engineer, would become part of their Soul Tool Department once the school term officially began.
Just thinking about it felt incredible!!
Xian Lin'er was now beginning to rejoice at her earlier decisiveness. As soon as she learned of Shao Zhuang's existence, she had immediately come to her teacher and secured the Soul Tool Department Core Disciple status that had been established in the future.
And after finishing that matter, she had not immediately left.
After having Qian Duoduo return first to handle departmental affairs, she remained behind alone to accompany her teacher in watching the Heavenly Curtain.
It was precisely because of this that she could strike first the moment Huo Yuhao was revealed.
Thank goodness for her foresight!
Xian Lin'er was extremely familiar with Yan Shaozhe's personality.
After the matter regarding Shao Zhuang had just been revealed, Yan Shaozhe had not come over.
The reason was very simple. From the information revealed by the Heavenly Curtain, it was obvious that although Shao Zhuang held the position of Core Disciple in the Soul Tool Department as well, his foremost task was still martial soul cultivation.
That was why Yan Shaozhe was not in much of a hurry and had remained calmly in control.
But Huo Yuhao's situation was entirely different.
This child would ultimately become a Core Disciple of their Soul Tool Department, personally approved by her teacher.
Therefore, Yan Shaozhe would surely be anxious upon seeing this and want to reverse the situation.
But unfortunately, everything was already too late.
Her side had already settled everything, and it had become a foregone conclusion.
Damn it, I came too late.
Seeing the smile on Xian Lin'er's face, Yan Shaozhe, who had arrived late, felt his heart sink.
