Oh, damn, a 10-million-Gold-Soul-Coin reward!
Not that he could get it, though.
But he could complete the other options.
Take the Sacred Dragon Pill, for example. It looked insanely powerful!
Divine Blessing, who had defected from Shrek, seemed pretty powerful too.
But Mu En was already thinking of grooming him to become the Sea God Pavilion Master. Running away now would be a huge loss.
After giving it some thought, Huo Yuhao made his decision.
He hurried back to the dormitory.
Wang Dong followed him with a puzzled look.
[ Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing Option One. Reward (100 Gold Soul Coins) has been issued.]
Wang Dong had only just reached the dormitory entrance when she saw Huo Yuhao heading back downstairs.
"?"
Wang Dong had no idea what Huo Yuhao was up to.
What Huo Yuhao said next would leave Wang Dong stunned for a hundred years!
Even Mu En, the dorm supervisor, was stunned for a hundred years!
Huo Yuhao dropped to one knee and clasped his hands. "Yuhao has drifted through half his life, regretting only that he never met a worthy lord. If you don't disdain me, I, Hao, am willing to take you as my sworn father!"
Wang Dong: "???"
Mu En: "???"
Both of them were stunned. Neither Wang Dong nor Mu En had expected Huo Yuhao to say something like that!
"Ahem, sorry, it just slipped out." Huo Yuhao coughed awkwardly a couple of times.
He corrected himself. "Yuhao has drifted through half his life, regretting only that he never met a worthy lord. If you don't disdain me, I, Hao, am willing to take you as my master!"
"You want to take me as your master?" Mu En asked, somewhat surprised.
"I'm only a dorm supervisor."
"You won't learn much from me."
Huo Yuhao shook his head. "Don't get hung up on the details. Just tell me, are you taking me or not?"
Mu En chuckled. "Since you insist, I'll take you as my disciple."
[ Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing Option Two. Reward (1 Sacred Dragon Pill) has been issued.] [Storage Space: True Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, Soul Skill Secret Technique: Combo Skill, 1 Soul Ring Slot, 1 Blue Hair, 1 Butterfly-type Thousand-Year Soul Ring, 1 Hammer-type Two-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, 1 Sacred Dragon Pill]
"All right, old geezer, you're not needed anymore. Go entertain yourself somewhere else."
Huo Yuhao waved him off and headed for the dormitory.
Mu En: "..."
Wang Dong: "..."
Was he kidding?
Hadn't he just taken him as his master?
How had he changed his tune so quickly?
Huo Yuhao naturally had his reasons for doing this.
It would make it easier to pull stunts like this in the future, and make everyone think he was a goofball.
Huo Yuhao had originally wanted to complete the third and fourth options too.
But he didn't know what counted as running away.
What if he had to flee to the Sun Moon Empire or another empire and join it for the option to count? That would be a disaster.
Mu En was keeping an eye on him now.
If he really ran off to another empire, he'd be in danger.
As for the fourth option, forget that!
Even if Mu En suppressed his level to match Huo Yuhao's, Huo Yuhao still couldn't beat him!
And he was supposed to knock Gold Soul Coins out of him? How was he supposed to do that?
So Huo Yuhao decisively gave up.
Inside the dormitory.
Huo Yuhao was alone now. Wang Dong hadn't come back; she had probably gone outside.
Huo Yuhao took out the Butterfly-type Thousand-Year Soul Ring.
As expected, it was a thousand-year soul ring from the Goddess of Light Butterfly.
The Hammer-type Two-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, meanwhile, was from the Clear Sky Hammer.
But Huo Yuhao didn't rush to absorb them. Instead, he examined the Sacred Dragon Pill.
This was the Sacred Dragon Pill he had gotten for taking Mu En as his master!
Huo Yuhao guessed it was the same kind of thing as the Dragon Pill.
But his Sacred Dragon Pill definitely wouldn't have the flaw of the Dragon Pill inside Mu En.
The main reason Mu En couldn't straighten his back was that the Dragon Pill he had absorbed back then contained a hidden surge of vicious energy!
Of course, risk and opportunity went hand in hand.
Mu En had also relied on that Dragon Pill to break through to level ninety-nine!
To become a Limit Douluo!
"So that's how it is..."
After learning what the Sacred Dragon Pill did, Huo Yuhao smiled.
The Sacred Dragon Pill was far stronger than the Dragon Pill!
Not only could it improve Huo Yuhao's aptitude, it also contained a vast amount of pure Soul Power!
It could even give Huo Yuhao a Sacred Dragon aura!
It would completely suppress Soul Masters with dragon attributes!
And what's more!
This Sacred Dragon Pill!
Could become Huo Yuhao's Soul Core!!!
At this time, Soul Cores were extraordinarily important!
They played a vital role in breaking through the bottleneck to Titled Douluo!
"Wake up, wake up." Huo Yuhao shook Sky Dream Ice Silkworm inside his Sea of Consciousness.
To absorb the Sacred Dragon Pill, he needed Sky Dream Ice Silkworm there. If anything went wrong, it would be a disaster.
"What is it now?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm asked, bleary-eyed.
"Don't worry about it. Just keep me from getting blown up," Huo Yuhao said without explaining.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm wouldn't understand even if he did.
"Oh."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was already used to this.
Huo Yuhao was always pulling out strange things.
It even felt that Huo Yuhao was the one carrying it.
That only made it more certain that Huo Yuhao could reach that realm!
"Th-this, this, this is a Dragon Pill?!!!"
Seeing Huo Yuhao take out the Sacred Dragon Pill, which radiated a holy aura, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was so shocked it could barely speak.
The Sacred Dragon Pill was on a completely different level from anything Huo Yuhao had taken out before!
As far as it knew, a Dragon Pill was condensed from the essence of an ancient dragon after its death!
And ancient dragons had been extinct for ages!
Where had Huo Yuhao gotten something like this?
Could it be that Huo Yuhao had had some other fortuitous encounter before meeting it?
That didn't make sense either!
Back then, Huo Yuhao had only been level ten!
How could he possibly have taken the Sacred Dragon Pill away unharmed?
The energy fluctuations leaking from the Dragon Pill alone should have shaken Huo Yuhao to death!
Could there be some peerless expert behind Huo Yuhao?!
The more Sky Dream Ice Silkworm thought about it, the more unfathomable the person behind Huo Yuhao seemed!
That person could even keep it from probing Huo Yuhao's memories!
They had even managed to conceal the aura of this Sacred Dragon Pill without letting a single trace escape!
This was a Sacred Dragon Pill!
And not even the slightest hint of its aura had leaked out!
Just how powerful did that make them?!
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt that their trip to the Far North was guaranteed to go smoothly!!!
"Yuhao, go ahead. I'm ready."
At Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's words, Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate at all and immediately began absorbing the Sacred Dragon Pill.
The True Mysterious Heaven Skill and Soul Art surged into motion!
An endless stream of energy poured into Huo Yuhao's body!
Breakthrough!!!
Level twenty!!!
Huo Yuhao immediately equipped the Soul Ring Slot, raising his level cap from twenty to thirty!
Of course, he could have absorbed it without equipping the Soul Ring Slot.
He just might have been blown apart.
Huo Yuhao didn't dare take that gamble.
Besides, there was no need to.
Soon, Huo Yuhao broke through again!!!
Level twenty-one!!!
Breakthrough!!!
Level twenty-two!!!
Breakthrough!!!
Level twenty-three!!!
Breakthrough!!!
Level twenty-four!!!
Breakthrough!!!
Level twenty-five!!!
Five levels in a row!!!
Huo Yuhao's Innate Soul Power finally returned to level ten at that moment!!!
