Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze and didn't look any longer.
He still had important matters to attend to.
By the time he left Shrek Academy, the sky had gradually darkened.
The evening breeze carried a hint of chill. It brushed against his face, refreshing his mind.

There were also plenty of cries from street vendors—
"Fresh Soul Beast meat! Just hunted in the Star Dou Great Forest!"
"Fine weapons! Forged from century-old cold iron!"
"The hide of a Hundred-Year Soul Beast Purple Gold Snake! Exceptionally durable—perfect for crafting armor!"
"Soul Beast hide! Genuine hide from a Hundred-Year Scale-Armored Rhino! Impervious to blades and spears, water and fire—an unbeatable choice for making inner armor!"

"Yuhao, where are you planning to go?"
