Tang San: The Honey Trap Failed? Huo Yuhao Isn't Love-Struck?!

God Realm.

Tang San sat upright on his throne, holding a cup of tea, waiting to watch Huo Yuhao be flattered and accept Wang Dong'er's proposal.

He had even begun to calculate how he would guide Huo Yuhao step by step, making him devoted to Wang Dong'er and eventually willing to become his dog.

But the next second, he saw Huo Yuhao shake his head and utter the words, "I refuse."

"Pfft!"

The clear tea in Tang San's mouth sprayed out, and the teacup in his hand hit the floor with a clatter, shattering into pieces.

He stood up abruptly from his throne, eyes wide, his face written with disbelief.

"What is going on?! He actually refused?!"

Tang San was completely stunned.

He could not fathom how, with Wang Dong'er's beauty and talent, an offer to cultivate together with a one-ring Spirit Master could be rejected!

This was completely different from what he had envisioned!

The honey trap failed?

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Tang San clenched his fists tightly, his expression so dark it seemed as if water could drip from it.

"How could he refuse?! Could it be that he doesn't like Wang Dong'er?!"

The meticulously planned honey trap had actually failed just like that?!

"Damn it!"

Tang San gritted his teeth, a flash of ruthlessness crossing his eyes.

"Huo Yuhao, do you think you can escape the palm of my hand?

I have other methods!

I refuse to believe that I, a deity of the God Realm, cannot control you!"

In the Class One classroom.

Cao Jinxuan poked Huo Yuhao's arm, looking at him with a face full of exasperation.

"Yuhao, have you lost your mind?! Wang Dong'er came to you personally! It's an opportunity countless people would beg for! How could you just refuse?"

Huo Yuhao raised his head and shook it.

"But I really don't need it. My own cultivation speed is fast enough."

In the Sea of Consciousness, Zhao Ze smiled and said:

"Yuhao, well done."

He had already guessed that Wang Dong'er's actions must have been guided by that scoundrel!

Therefore, he had to refuse her!

He could not let that scoundrel succeed!

"I know, Master. For now, I just want to focus on my cultivation."

Huo Yuhao nodded and said.

This was the proper business he should be attending to!

Zhao Ze looked at Huo Yuhao's earnest expression and nodded, saying with gratification:

"It is best that you think this way.

However, speaking of cultivating together, I actually have an idea that could involve the entire academy and take your cultivation speed to the next level."

"The entire academy?"

Huo Yuhao suddenly looked up, his eyes wide and round, his face full of disbelief.

"Master, you don't mean... that you can merge the spirit power of thousands of people in the academy, right? How could that be possible!"

"Who said anything about merging spirit power?"

Zhao Ze smiled and shook his head, turning to look at Electrolux beside him.

"If I remember correctly, in your Holy Demon Continent, there is a Squire Knight Contract, right?

As long as this contract is signed, both parties share a portion of their talent and power, and can even break through their own bottlenecks under the blessing of the contract. Am I correct?"

Electrolux thought carefully for a moment, then nodded, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes:

"That is correct, such a contract does exist. You even know about this..."

He paused, as if suddenly realizing something, his expression changing slightly.

"Wait, you aren't thinking of applying this contract to the Douluo Continent, are you? Is that even possible?"

Zhao Ze said with full confidence:

"If necromancy can be used perfectly fine on the Douluo Continent, there's no reason a contract spell can't be modified."

Huo Yuhao felt his heart surge with excitement. Watching the prototype of the contract rune Electrolux was sketching out within his Sea of Consciousness, he couldn't help but ask:

"But Master, Electrolux just mentioned something about a Retainer Knight. That shouldn't be compatible with a Soul Master's nature, right?"

Zhao Ze nodded and said:

"I know, which is why I'm going to make some modifications, and while I'm at it, take the contract's effects a step further."

It could be taken even further?

Huo Yuhao felt a sense of awe, though he didn't quite grasp the full extent of it.

As Electrolux finished sketching the contract rune, Zhao Ze began his modifications.

The morning classes ended, and the moment the bell rang, Zhao Ze stopped his work inside the Sea of Consciousness.

As the final profound rune fell from his fingertip, the contract prototype, which had been flickering with a ghostly light, suddenly erupted in a soft, golden glow.

"Done."

Zhao Ze stretched, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

"Yuhao, this contract is now completely modified. I've named it the 'Talent Sharing Contract.'

Once both parties sign it, they can fully stack their cultivation talents and practice using the combined, stacked talent."

"What?!"

Inside the Sea of Consciousness, Huo Yuhao's face was filled with astonishment.

"Master, are you saying you can stack talents?!"

Wouldn't that mean his cultivation speed would increase drastically?!

Beside them, Electrolux was already stunned. He leaned in to carefully study the flowing runes, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became, unable to stop himself from marveling:

"Incredible! Simply incredible! You call this modifying a contract? You've practically recreated it from scratch!

You've actually managed to achieve a one-hundred-percent bidirectional stack without any side effects!

I have lived for so many years, yet I have never seen a genius as terrifying as you."

"It's nothing much."

Zhao Ze waved his hand, his tone relaxed.

"Yuhao, let's find someone to test this on right now, starting with the very best.

Go to the Sea God Pavilion immediately and find Mu En. Show him this contract and tell him you found it in an ancient text.

Which of those elders in the Sea God Pavilion isn't a person of exceptional talent?

Especially Mu En; his Bright Sacred Dragon talent is the best on the continent. If you sign the contract with them first, your foundation will be built incredibly solid.

I'll use this time to optimize the group contract function; perhaps it can accommodate even more people."

"Right! I'm going now!"

Huo Yuhao felt his blood boiling with excitement.

Without a second thought, he bolted out of the classroom, his speed so fast it piqued Wang Dong'er's curiosity.

What is Huo Yuhao up to again?

Wang Dong'er watched Huo Yuhao's retreating figure, her heart filled with confusion.

He sprinted all the way, heading toward the Sea God Pavilion at the back of Shrek Academy.

The teachers and students he passed along the way cast sidelong glances at his frantic appearance, but no one dared to stop him.

Who in all of Shrek didn't know by now that Huo Yuhao was the favorite of Elder Mu, and even the elders of the Sea God Pavilion treated him with courtesy?

Soon, Huo Yuhao reached the entrance of the Sea God Pavilion.

An elder saw him and immediately greeted him with a smile:

"Student Yuhao, Elder Mu is inside discussing matters, you can just head straight in."

"Thank you, Senior!"

Huo Yuhao thanked him and rushed into the main hall of the Sea God Pavilion. Sure enough, Mu En was sitting in the main seat, discussing something with Xuan Zi and several other Sea God Pavilion elders.

"Elder Mu! Seniors!"

Huo Yuhao ran to the center of the hall, panting, and bowed to everyone.

"Oh? Yuhao is here?"

Mu En looked up with a smile, and seeing him drenched in sweat, asked with some confusion.

"Why are you in such a rush? Did something happen?"

"Elder Mu, I have a major discovery to tell you!"

Huo Yuhao said excitedly, then raised his hand. A golden contract rune emerged from his fingertip and hovered in mid-air.

"Elder Mu, look at this! This is a Talent Sharing Contract I found in an ancient text.

As long as this contract is signed, the cultivation talents of both parties can be stacked by one hundred percent. If we practice together, our speed will increase significantly!"
