Qian Renxue's Handmade Flying Soul Tool

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly: "My family has already prepared a full set of ten-thousand-year soul bones for me, so these rewards from the academy are useless to me. Xiao Xiao, Hanqing, you are both my teammates. As captain, whatever I say, you must listen. So I am now ordering you: these two soul bones are your rewards. You cannot give them to anyone else, and you must absorb them yourselves."

Huo Yuhao's words were like a thunderclap on a clear day. The three present all drew in a sharp breath of cold air. They knew that in the current soul master world—whether ten thousand years ago or ten thousand years later—the appearance of a single soul bone would invite covetousness from many sides.

Just how powerful was Huo Yuhao's family, to have gathered a full set of soul bones for him?

Of the six major soul bones in the human body, Huo Yuhao now possessed the torso bone and the right arm bone. He had already planned how to obtain the remaining ones.

The Empty Bright Demonic Leopard left leg bone would go to Xiao Xiao, and the Secret Method Soul left arm bone to Song Hanqing.

Huo Yuhao's next soul bone would be a right leg bone, which he expected to obtain after the semester break.

Xiao Xiao and Song Hanqing were kept in Zhou Yi's office and would not be allowed to leave until they had finished absorbing their soul bones. Huo Yuhao walked out of the teaching building alone and once again arrived at the Lakeside of Sea God Lake.

Huo Yuhao had gradually come to love the scenery of Sea God Lake. The azure water shimmered with ripples, and sunlight refracted off the lake surface into a golden, rippling pattern.

It was at this moment that a fiery red figure came charging toward Huo Yuhao at high speed. Huo Yuhao's expression grew worse and worse.

"Ma Xiaotao! No way. I've come to Sea God Lake three times, and I've run into Ma Xiaotao all three times. Is this some kind of curse?"

After Ma Xiaotao became a Soul Saint and perfectly controlled the Phoenix Flame within her, her soul power grew even denser and more profound. Her jade legs stood upon the blue waves without stirring a single ripple.

"Great, Huo Yuhao! I was worried I wouldn't find you. I never expected to run into you here." Ma Xiaotao came happily before Huo Yuhao, then realized she was being too excited. She quickly turned around, her pretty face flushing slightly. After taking a deep breath, she turned back to face Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao said: "Elder Sister Xiao Tao, you're not here to ask me to suppress the evil fire again, are you?"

Ma Xiaotao gently shook her head: "Thanks to your medicinal herbs, the evil fire inside me has vanished without a trace. It won't recur in the future."

"That's good." Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief. "Then what did Elder Sister Xiao Tao come to see me about this time?"

"Give this to you." Ma Xiaotao pressed a storage ring into Huo Yuhao's hand, then said: "This is a flying soul tool crafted by your elder sister. She made it with her own hands. Because of some cultivation matters, she couldn't hand it to you personally, so she asked me to pass it on."

Huo Yuhao's expression shifted with emotion. He took the storage ring from Ma Xiaotao's hand and, cherishing it, put it on his middle finger.

Ma Xiaotao continued: "I ran into the teacher earlier. He told me to inform you that the Sea God Pavilion meeting has decided to make you a Dual System Core Disciple of both the Soul Tool System and the Martial Soul System. Your benefits will be double that of an ordinary core disciple."

Huo Yuhao nodded. This result was within his expectations.

Ma Xiaotao's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly: "I really can't understand it. You have such great talent, and you don't even have enough time for soul master cultivation. Now you're going to carve out more time to study soul tools. Don't you think you're wasting your talent?"

"I don't think so. My talent is naturally good. Although the Extreme Ice Heaven and Earth Yuan Power will slow down my cultivation speed after breaking through to Soul Elder, I have my own unique cultivation method."

After saying this, Huo Yuhao looked at Ma Xiaotao with burning eyes: "Elder Sister Xiao Tao, I need your help!"

Ma Xiaotao felt uncomfortable under Huo Yuhao's gaze. She lowered her head and forced herself to ask: "What kind of help?"

The next second, Huo Yuhao gently took Ma Xiaotao's jade hand. Time seemed to freeze at that moment. Ma Xiaotao's pretty face was covered in a blush, and her head felt dizzy. She never imagined that Huo Yuhao would hold her hand in broad daylight.

Just as Ma Xiaotao instinctively tried to resist, she was astonished to discover that an extremely pure fire attribute aura—one perfectly suited to her own Phoenix Flame—was gathering toward her. After breaking through to Soul Saint, Ma Xiaotao's soul power had become increasingly pure and dense. With time, she was confident she could break through to Titled Douluo before the age of thirty-five.

As that mysterious fire attribute aura from Huo Yuhao entered her body, Ma Xiaotao felt her soul power rapidly circulating. Even without meditating, she had already entered a cultivation state, and at ten times her original speed.

The Extreme Fire and Extreme Ice Heaven and Earth Yuan Power inside Huo Yuhao came from the Ice Fire Yin Yang Eye. The purity of that heaven and earth yuan power was unmatched in the world. While nourishing Ma Xiaotao, the three ice attribute giants in his Sea of Spirit were also frantically absorbing it, and a portion nourished Huo Yuhao himself, accelerating his soul power circulation.

The Lakeside of Sea God Lake was now filled with students who had just finished class. When they saw Huo Yuhao holding hands with an inner courtyard senior sister dressed in red, they all shot him looks of contempt, as if to say, "I misjudged you, Huo Yuhao."

Ma Xiaotao suddenly snapped back to reality. She quickly pulled her hand away and sent a soul power telepathy: "Remember to wait for me here tonight."

Huo Yuhao watched Ma Xiaotao stride away over the waves, then turned indifferently to face the crowd of watching students: "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a senior sister eating my soft rice before?"

"Tch!"

"Shameless!"

The crowd dispersed in a hubbub. Huo Yuhao said nothing more and instead walked toward the Soul Tool System.

Between the Soul Tool System and the Martial Soul System, if you asked which one was the wealthiest in Shrek Academy, it would have to be the Soul Tool System.

After Zhou Yi had led the way last time, Huo Yuhao now knew the route well. He easily found his way to Fan Yu's area. Since he didn't have a key, Huo Yuhao waited a moment until a senior student from the Soul Tool System passed by, then explained the purpose of his visit.

"What? You said Huo Yuhao is here!" Fan Yu was greatly surprised upon hearing this, and then undisguised joy filled his eyes.

With a click, the metal door slid open. Huo Yuhao and Fan Yu met for the second time.

"Huo Yuhao, Vice Dean Qian Duoduo has already told me about your situation. You've actually become a Dual System Core Disciple of both the Martial Soul System and the Soul Tool System."

Huo Yuhao followed Fan Yu inside and nodded: "Yes. I'm interested in soul tools, so I made this request. I'm not here for anything else today—I just want to learn soul tool crafting from you."

Huo Yuhao had once had the chance to take Qian Renxue to the Sun Moon Empire, where soul tool technology was most advanced. Instead, he had come to Shrek Academy for a reason.

Qian Renxue planned that after this semester ended and she returned to the Martial Soul Hall of ten thousand years ago, she would convince her grandfather and Bibi Dong to send people westward to search. Their goal was to destroy the Sun Moon Empire ten thousand years before its time, truly grasping the pinnacle of technology in their own hands.

In the process of altering history, many unexpected things could happen. For example, if a person's ancestor was killed ten thousand years ago, that person would never be found ten thousand years later.

Therefore, in Huo Yuhao's ten-thousand-year grand plan, destroying the Sun Moon Empire of ten thousand years ago was the top priority. Only by truly erasing the Sun Moon Empire from its roots and letting the Martial Soul Empire take its place could the history of Martial Soul Hall being destroyed be changed.

This plan was what Huo Yuhao called the Ten Thousand Year Grand Plan.
