Mirror Shadow Beast Left Palm Bone

A crystal-clear blue left palm bone remained within the corpse of the Mirror Shadow Beast.

After Huo Yuhao extracted it, he immediately began the fusion process.

Although this left palm bone was only twenty thousand years old, as an external soul bone—not one of the six main types—it could not only grow alongside the soul master's cultivation but also increase its age by absorbing soul bones of the same category.

Having gained experience from absorbing the Ice Empress's soul bone, Huo Yuhao absorbed this Mirror Shadow Beast left palm bone with great ease.

It granted Huo Yuhao the ability to copy one soul skill from another person.

The soul skill provided by the Mirror Shadow Beast soul ring that Huo Yuhao had absorbed was also the ability to copy a soul skill from another person.

Possessing two copying skills put Huo Yuhao in a very good mood.

This meant that Huo Yuhao could store two soul skills, and one of them would no longer require finding a soul master to replenish it; as long as he used the soul bone to copy a released soul skill again, he could achieve an infinite loop.

If Huo Yuhao absorbed a Silver Hero Beast soul ring as his fourth ring, he would be able to change the soul skills of his third and fourth rings at will.

In Huo Yuhao's view, the solidification of a soul master's skills had always been a significant drawback, as it meant that in front of a soul master who knew your intelligence, you would fall into a position of great passivity.

Having finished absorbing the soul bone, Huo Yuhao had completed all the objectives of his trip and immediately set off to leave the Far North.

From the time he took leave from Shrek Academy to his return, a month and a half had passed, and he was nearing the deadline he had agreed upon with Fan Yu.

Huo Yuhao's return journey was much faster; possessing the Ultimate Ice martial soul, he was now able to withstand the cold of the Far North.

With five days left until the two-month mark, Huo Yuhao finally returned to Shrek Academy.

Entering Shrek Academy, Huo Yuhao walked toward the freshman dormitory building.

Because it was still morning and classes were in session, there were no students near the dormitory building, only an old man lying on a lounge chair.

"Grandpa, I'm back from my leave. Are you sunbathing here?" Huo Yuhao greeted Mu En.

"Mm, hurry back to your dorm. That room hasn't been lived in for a while," Mu En replied indifferently.

"Huh?" Huo Yuhao felt a bit strange. He quickly took out his dormitory key, opened the door, and took a look. Sure enough, the room was covered in another layer of dust.

"Has Wang Dong not been back to stay for this long?" Huo Yuhao felt somewhat puzzled, but he didn't think too much about it. He took out a rag and a broom and cleaned the dormitory once again.

At the dormitory entrance, Mu En let out a soft sound of surprise.

"Such strong spiritual power, but not a soul beast in human form. Well, let him be."

After whispering to himself, Mu En, who had just lifted his body slightly, lay back down into the lounge chair.

After cleaning the dormitory, Huo Yuhao rested for a while before preparing to go find Fan Yu to report his return.

He had greeted Tang Ya before he left, telling her that if Teacher Fan Yu asked, she should say that Senior Brother Bei Bei had arranged for a soul master to take him to hunt for his second soul ring.

Knocking on the door of Fan Yu's office, Huo Yuhao opened it and walked in.

"Yuhao, did you obtain your second soul ring? If you didn't find a suitable soul beast, I'll have your senior brother go with you."

Seeing Huo Yuhao arrive, Fan Yu temporarily shifted his gaze away from his soul tool.

"Teacher Fan Yu, my improvement this time is a bit significant. You need to prepare yourself mentally." Huo Yuhao needed to let Fan Yu build up some psychological preparation.

"You brat, playing riddles with me? Come, let Teacher see just how big your improvement is this time."

Fan Yu responded dismissively, not believing that Huo Yuhao could have an improvement shocking enough to stun him.

That was until he saw the yellow, purple, and black soul rings floating around Huo Yuhao's body.

"Yuhao, you're level thirty? With this soul ring configuration, how did you absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring for your third ring?"

Fan Yu asked in shock. He admitted that Huo Yuhao was right; he did indeed need a bit of psychological preparation.

"The original target was a soul beast in the Far North called an Ice Silkworm. Everything went quite smoothly before obtaining the Ice Silkworm soul ring."

"But after obtaining it, I encountered a ten-thousand-year-level Mirror Shadow Beast. In the face of a life-and-death crisis, my Spirit Eye martial soul underwent a second awakening."

"Perhaps due to the boost from the second awakening, my soul power increased significantly, jumping directly to level 28, and my spiritual power also became several times stronger."

"That soul beast seemed to have been wounded by the senior soul master who brought me to hunt for the ring, and in the end, I used my spiritual power to deliver the finishing blow."

"After it died, it produced a left palm bone. That senior already had a left arm bone, so I absorbed that left palm bone, and my soul power reached level 30 as a result."

"That senior said I was already capable of absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring, so I absorbed that Mirror Shadow Beast soul ring as well."

After hearing Huo Yuhao's story, Fan Yu fell silent.

This story, which sounded like a fantasy, was truly hard to believe, yet it seemed to be the only way to explain things.

"Yuhao, can you show me the second awakening of your body martial soul?" Fan Yu asked with some curiosity.

"No problem." After Huo Yuhao finished speaking, he activated the second awakening of his Spirit Eye martial soul, incidentally adding a wave of luck to himself.

Looking at Huo Yuhao, who was shrouded in golden light, Fan Yu believed his explanation.

Huo Yuhao felt that the story he made up was better than the one the original Huo Yuhao had concocted; there was a high probability that Fan Yu would believe it.

"Yuhao, Teacher will go report your return in a moment. Do you have anything else?" Fan Yu felt he needed to calm down and was preparing to let Huo Yuhao leave first.

"Teacher, there is one more thing. Actually, I am a twin martial soul user. My second martial soul is Ultimate Ice, and I also obtained a soul ring for it during this trip to the Far North. The freshman assessment is coming up soon, so I wanted to let you know."

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao switched to his Ice Jade Empress Scorpion martial soul. A soul ring, disguised as black, rose up, and the temperature in the entire office dropped significantly.

Fan Yu was now so shocked he felt somewhat numb.

"I understand, Yuhao. Go back and rest early. I'll arrange the rest."

After Fan Yu finished speaking, he watched Huo Yuhao leave, and then he could no longer suppress his laughter.

That such a genius could take him as a teacher was something Fan Yu wouldn't have dared to dream of, yet it had actually happened in reality today.

However, considering the usual style of the Martial Soul Department, Fan Yu decided to go find Vice Dean Qian Duoduo first, to avoid the Martial Soul Department coming over to snatch the student later.

Although Huo Yuhao's previous remarks had somewhat eased the relationship between the two departments, when it came to a genius of this level, even those as close as family would end up fighting.

Having tossed and turned in the Far North for over a month, Huo Yuhao was physically and mentally exhausted. Upon returning to the dormitory, he fell into a peaceful sleep.

After his classes tomorrow, Huo Yuhao planned to go test his soul power.

After absorbing his third soul ring, the metal soul power detection ball he had on hand could no longer detect his soul power level.
