The moment he came to a stop, Skydream Iceworm's voice suddenly rang out in his sea of consciousness, then instantly dropped to a whisper. "Yuhao! Don't look around! That old man on the recliner by the gate isn't simple!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Skydream Iceworm fell silent.
Huo Yuhao's heart tightened. He immediately suppressed every trace of abnormality, and his face instantly took on the innocent, harmless look of a new student.
He respectfully walked over to the recliner, bowed deeply to Mu En, whose eyes were closed, and asked in a well-behaved, polite voice, "Hello, Grandpa. I'm a new student who arrived today. Which way is the freshman dormitory?"
Mu En slowly opened his eyes. His cloudy gaze swept over Huo Yuhao, and a trace of barely noticeable surprise flashed through his eyes.
This little fellow looked only eleven or twelve, yet his mind was remarkably steady. That instantaneous concealment of his aura was something even many adult Soul Masters could not achieve.
Still, he did not ask further. He raised a hand and pointed toward the dormitory building nearby, his voice even. "Go inside."
"Thank you, Grandpa."
Huo Yuhao respectfully bowed again before turning and heading in the direction Mu En had indicated. Only after rounding the corner and making sure he was out of the old man's sight did he quietly let out a breath.
Huo Yuhao hurriedly called out to Skydream Iceworm in his sea of consciousness, "Brother Tian Meng, who exactly was that old man? He scared you that badly?"
Only then did Skydream Iceworm's voice reappear, still carrying lingering fear. "I didn't dare probe his exact level, in case he noticed me, but that old fellow is definitely above a Titled Douluo. He's most likely even a Super Douluo!
