Power Progression

Background and History

Huo Yuhao grew up in the White Tiger Duke's Estate with his mother, Huo Yun'er. After the Duke left for war, the Duchess drove them into a woodshed behind the servants' quarters and cut off their income. His low innate Soul Power gave her further grounds to torment them. Encouraged by his mother, Yuhao cultivated relentlessly in the hope that becoming a soul master would improve their lives 62.

Yang Fan and Zhang Lexuan entered the mother and son's dreams to persuade them to leave. In Yuhao's dream, Yang Fan appeared as the Shushan Wine Sword Immortal and taught him that his wish to protect his mother was the foundation of his sword intent. After waking, Yuhao reproduced a faint current of air with a sword gesture and found that his cultivation speed had improved 63 64.

Yang Fan and Zhang Lexuan later rescued them from the estate and used lookalike corpses to stage their deaths. Yuhao took his mother's surname, becoming Huo Yuhao, and left behind his identity as Dai Yuhao 65. In their new household, he continued studying, meditating, and practicing swordsmanship. At seven, he accompanied Yang Fan and Zhang Lexuan into the Star Dou Forest to seek his first soul ring 73 74. There, he contracted with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm 78.
