Huo Yuhao: Emma, This Mission is So Fragrant!

(Tang Ya beautiful image)

Lin Ye closed the door, sat cross-legged on the bed, and took a deep breath.

He opened the system panel:

[Current Draw Chances: 1]

"Draw!"

A colorful roulette wheel popped up on the screen, its indicator spinning rapidly.

Red, yellow, purple, gold... the various colored segments dazzled the eyes.

Lin Ye stared at the wheel, chanting silently in his heart: Give me something good, give me something good...

He focused his intent.

The wheel slowed down, clicking forward one segment at a time.

Finally, the indicator slowly came to a halt.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations on obtaining the Soul Tool: Micro Restroom!]

A small white cube appeared out of thin air in front of Lin Ye.

Lin Ye froze for a second.

"Huh? A restroom???"

What kind of garbage prize is this?

[Spatial-type Soul Tool!]

[As long as soul power is injected, the user can enter.]

[An essential item for traveling.]

Lin Ye picked up the small cube and turned it over a few times.

This... what is the use of drawing something like this?

Forget about divine weapons or miraculous elixirs, why did he draw a toilet?

Complaints aside, he still tried to inject his soul power into it.

With a flash of white light, his entire body vanished from the spot.

The next second, Lin Ye found himself standing in... uh, a rather luxurious restroom.

The floor was paved with non-slip jade tiles, the walls were a pale silver, and a large bathtub sat in the corner, with a separate shower stall next to it.

The vanity was carved from a single piece of marble, and the mirror was polished to a shine.

There was even a faint scent of incense drifting in the air.

Lin Ye stood before the mirror, silent for a moment.

Fine, I admit, this decor is actually quite something.

He had a sudden thought.

In the Shrek Academy dormitory building, the rooms didn't have private bathrooms; there were only two public restrooms per floor.

That was equivalent to 400 people fighting over one toilet!

With this...

No need to wait in line; he could go whenever he wanted.

He could even take a bath.

Lin Ye rubbed his chin.

It seemed... not bad, actually?

With a thought, he exited the Micro Restroom.

He tucked the small white cube away in a corner.

It didn't take up any space.

Perfect.

At the same time, Huo Yuhao had also found his dormitory.

Following the directions from the old dormitory warden, he navigated through several twists and turns before finally stopping at the end of the first-floor corridor.

He took out his key, inserted it, and struggled for a long time before finally getting the door open.

The moment the door pushed open, an indescribable stench rushed toward him.

It smelled like a moldy mop soaked in rancid water and left to ferment for three months.

Huo Yuhao nearly passed out from the smell.

He fixed his gaze and took a closer look.

This was no dormitory; it was clearly a storage closet.

Broken brooms, rotting mops, and several iron buckets of unknown vintage were piled in the corner.

A layer of dust covered the floor, leaving a footprint with every step he took.

The most ridiculous part was that there was only a single, dilapidated wooden bed frame.

Huo Yuhao: "..."

Was this the treatment he received in exchange for a waiver of the Tang Sect's entrance exam?

Teacher Xiao Ya, is the status of your Tang Sect... perhaps a bit low?

He sighed and resigned himself to his fate.

He pushed the window open to let in some air.

Although the conditions were a bit harsh, this was, after all, the first place in his life that truly belonged to him.

There were no cold stares from the Duke's Mansion, no bullying from the servants.

From today on, he was an official student of Shrek Academy.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth lifted involuntarily.

It was pretty good.

However, at that very moment, a system panel popped up.

[Ding--]

[Obtained C-rank mission: Do not clean the dormitory today, do not wash or bathe.]

[Mission time limit: Within today.]

[Mission completion reward: Mysterious Heaven Technique advances by one level!]

[Mission failure penalty: Unable to learn the Mysterious Heaven Technique!]

Huo Yuhao's expression froze.

Cannot clean?

He looked down at the filthy, messy dormitory: the dust was deep enough to bury his feet, the clutter was piled into a mountain, and the air reeked of rot.

Cannot wash or bathe?

He lowered his head and sniffed his own body, which still carried the sweat from days of travel—it was pungent and sour.

What kind of hellish mission is this?!

Is it forcing him to live like a savage?

But then he looked at the reward: Mysterious Heaven Technique advances by one level.

That was the core cultivation method of the Tang Sect, which Senior Brother Beibei said would take a long time to break through.

He looked at the penalty again: Unable to learn the Mysterious Heaven Technique.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and silently placed the broom back in the corner.

Damn, this mission is actually pretty sweet!

He rubbed his hands together, his eyes shining.

With my system, this speed of improvement is simply too fast!

Huo Yuhao plopped down onto the dusty, splintered, and nail-ridden wooden bed, not even feeling the discomfort.

With his steady temperament, he began to reflect on this system.

The missions were indeed a bit strange...

But they were simple to complete, and the rewards were truly powerful!

Could it be that the "Child of Destiny" the system mentioned is really me?

He recalled the Sky Dream Ice Worm he encountered when obtaining his first soul ring.

A million-year soul beast, sacrificing itself to him so easily.

Perhaps, I really am the Child of Destiny!

Doesn't that mean I'm a winner in life?

It seems I could become a god just like Tang San from ten thousand years ago!

No!

He clenched his fists, his eyes burning with intensity.

I must become even stronger than Tang San!

To be worshipped by the world!

However, he quickly calmed down.

It was too early to be happy.

Developing steadily by utilizing the system was the real path!

Huo Yuhao pulled up the system panel, stared at the screen, and recited word by word in his mind:

"Jiahao System, as long as you can make me stronger, I will do any task."

He paused.

"I am willing to be your dog!"

At this moment, Dai Yuhao had displayed his innate servility to the fullest.

After a while, Huo Yuhao felt a bit hungry.

He went out to ask for the location of the cafeteria, bought the cheapest rice bowl from the student supply store, and headed over.

Every grade had its own exclusive cafeteria, located right behind the dormitory area.

Huo Yuhao was taken aback after entering the freshman cafeteria.

There were not many people in the cafeteria at this time, making it appear very empty.

There wasn't even a single table or chair; it was completely an open space.

Only on one side were there sinks for washing hands and utensils.

On the inner side were the windows for purchasing food, with prices marked outside each one.

There were eight windows in total, each offering different dishes, with prices increasing from right to left.

Was there really not even a place to sit while eating in the cafeteria?

The cafeteria entrance also stated: Food is strictly prohibited from being taken out of the cafeteria.

After a brief moment of surprise, Huo Yuhao went to the rightmost and cheapest window to buy a meal.

Stir-fried vegetables and white rice.

Even though it was the cheapest meal, he ate it with great relish.

Having something to eat was already good enough.

Moreover, the price was cheap, costing only two copper coins.

According to the income of one gold coin per month, if he saved a little, it would be enough for food.

While eating, Huo Yuhao observed the cafeteria.

He discovered that the prices for the food at the most expensive window were actually calculated in gold soul coins.

As a Child of Destiny, he, Huo Yuhao, would sooner or later eat the food from over there!

After finishing his meal quickly, Huo Yuhao returned directly to his dormitory.

Sitting cross-legged on the hard wooden bed, he soon entered a state of meditation and began to practice the Mysterious Heaven Technique.

After switching to the Mysterious Heaven Technique, he could at least feel his own progress every day, which was much better than before.

Furthermore, after these few days of practice on the road, his originally impure soul power had been completely converted into the Mysterious Heaven Technique.

And the soul power transformed by the Mysterious Heaven Technique had one point that was very effective for him: it would nourish his meridians automatically during the circulation process.

Once he completed this task, his Mysterious Heaven Technique would be able to enter the next level!

Then his cultivation speed might be comparable to Beibei's!

The more Huo Yuhao thought about it, the more excited he became!

"Hmm, this technique is truly not bad; it is quite suitable for your current situation. You humans really have talent!"
