As the Soul Land II Anime aired, the Soul Land Worldview drew in more and more people. Beginning with Soul Land II, the original story gradually became richer and fuller. Compared with writing fanfiction for Soul Land I, Soul Land II gave me far more freedom to portray a different kind of story.

Before I knew it, I had already posted ten chapters. I never expected this book to receive such an unexpectedly positive response compared with Ghost of Wangchuan. I am deeply grateful to every reader who has supported this book. It is your interactions and companionship that gave me the determination to keep writing.

All the plotlines in this book were adapted from the original work, presenting everyone with a protagonist completely different from the one in the original novel. I also greatly enjoy filling in some of the original work's gaps. After all, the values and ways of thinking from back then now seemed rather bizarre.

Many fans who once read the original work had more or less grown up. We could not help but wonder whether, viewed through a modern lens, some of the plotlines that took place in that fantasy world revealed strange lines of reasoning that made them seem cheap.

This Huo Yuhao was not that Huo Yuhao. He was a flesh-and-blood modern person. Just as we readers felt indignant at the unfairness of certain plot arrangements when reading the original work, from the same god's-eye view, whether everything he did could surpass the achievements of the original version would only be revealed as the story unfolded.

Individual strength was ultimately limited, and the Worldline would also converge. Huo Yuhao would eventually meet those people and encounter those events, but what kind of chain reaction his actions would trigger was something that, even as the author, forced me to revisit the original work dozens of times, combine it with absolutely objective facts, and make absolutely reasonable arrangements. Of course, some concepts, such as Innate Level 30 Full Soul Power, were entirely original.

I was more than happy to interact with all of you. It felt as though I were standing before a crowd, telling a story different from the original book. The thoughts and views I put forward, all born from the values of modern society, could receive feedback and teasing from listeners. For an author, there was nothing happier than that. I also hoped you would continue to enjoy this book and enjoy Huo Yuhao's different story.

I stayed up all night yesterday and stockpiled three updates. It was no easy feat—I was even dozing off at work. I hope all readers will not be stingy with the recommendation tickets in your hands. Cheer wildly for Little Yuhao, who was about to leave the Novice Village!
