Back in the original timeline, Huo Yuhao lay on his bed in the dormitory, legs crossed. "Judging by the time," he thought, "It's almost time to leave this place."
" Ke Ke, Sun Moon Empire, Ju Zi, Coco."
"However, with my clone by their side, there shouldn't be any problems. Controlling two bodies every day consumes twice as much mental energy as before."
Meanwhile, in the military camp, Ju Zi and the others were waiting. Long Haoxing slowly said, " Ju Zi, Ke Ke, I'm leaving. Well, perhaps that's not quite right. I should say, my true form is about to leave."
The two Ju Zi looked a little dejected, but quickly cheered up. "It's okay, you've always been here, haven't you?"
Long Haoxing said with a smile, "That's right, I've always been here, and my original body can switch places with me at any time. That's the special ability I have with my original body."
In reality, it's just the power of space. If you want to cross space, you could have done it long ago when you reached the top of the continent at Level 99 in your previous life.
It is currently possible, but it consumes most of one's Soul Power.
Ke Ke pinched Long Haoxing's cheek and said, " Yuhao, you're so cute, even your cheeks look good when you pinch them."
Huo Yuhao pushed Ke Ke away and said, " Ke Ke, this is just how I look. Besides, I've always had good taste."
Ju Zi watched the two bickering and smiled slightly. Then she looked in the direction of the academy and Maple Leaf City. She understood that Maple Leaf City was where he had left.
After that, his two-year exchange student period was almost over. Through continuous negotiations with Yan Shaozhe, Shrek Academy now owed him almost 100 million Gold Soul Coin. In addition, they provided him with a villa within the Shrek Academy. He also finished making some gifts for Qiu'er Xue'er.
After all, if Qiu'er comes, I can't just let Qiu'er squeeze into my small dormitory too.
Shrek is a kind of shackle, but it also offers some protection. At least I don't have to worry about where I'll sleep tomorrow. In Shrek, I can better achieve my goals, whether it's building the Spirit Pagoda or pursuing my future plans.
If you want to make use of something, if you want the mule to run, you have to feed it some grass.
As for the materials and Soul Tool he extorted from Jing Hongchen, he naturally kept them for himself. In case he could build a Gundam or something in the future, one shot could kill Tang San.
Huo Yuhao didn't go too far; it was just a reasonable transaction. Therefore, Jing Hongchen also thought that this child was really good, but it was a pity that he was from Shrek.
Finally, he left a message that completely dispelled Jing Hongchen's thoughts of harming him. "Speaking of which, Mu En, it seems a message came saying that we should come to the Sun Moon Empire together."
That statement is false, but Jing Hongchen dares not gamble on it. After all, Huo Yuhao is Mu En's disciple ( Mu En himself called him that). Although he has learned some knowledge about Soul Tool, we have also gained a lot. Therefore, a fair trade is not a problem.
In the end, all that could be said was, " Student Huo is too kind. Our Sun Moon Empire welcomes you and Mu En as guests."
Back in the original timeline, Huo Yuhao didn't rest either, and began his cultivation with Third Prince Nezha again.
Third Prince Nezha, was a good teacher and very focused in his instruction. He had almost completely mastered Huo Yuhao's techniques.
Of course, they were also beaten, beaten.
He has become highly skilled in using the Fire-Tipped Spear, and his training in the Demon-Slaying Sword and the Red Armillary Sash has not lagged behind. He can now also use the new magic weapon, the Universe Ring. He is almost fully equipped with divine gear.
Just as their training came to an end, the farewell ceremony held by the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Engineer Academy for Shrek Academy exchange students arrived as scheduled.
Jing Hongchen personally came to see him off. The Mingde Hall had a complicated expression throughout the journey, his gaze frequently lingering on Huo Yuhao, but he remained silent. Huo Yuhao also kept quiet. I know exactly what this old guy is thinking. This is what he's thinking.
After several hours of flight, the group slowly landed at the agreed location.
On the other side, the Shrek members had also arrived, including Xuan Zi and Xian Lin'er. This was arranged by Huo Yuhao to give Yan Shaozhe a heads-up in advance, in case Jing Hongchen did anything underhanded. After all, in his previous life, he was first Titled Douluo, and then Limit Douluo, Long Xiaoyao, which was really troublesome.
In his current state, he's fine against ordinary Titled Douluo, as he can unleash his full power and kill them. However, if he encounters Limit Douluo, he'll simply be beaten up, unless Third Prince Nezha takes his place.
After Huo Yuhao landed, " Yuhao!"
As soon as he landed, Jiang Nannan's clear voice called out to him. Huo Yuhao looked over and saw that Ma Xiaotao, Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, Ling Luochеn, and other women had all arrived.
Surprisingly, Wang Dong also came.
He seemed hesitant and reluctant to apologize for what Huo Yuhao had done in the past. He was clearly very concerned. Then there was this strange feeling he had towards Huo Yuhao. He had been watching Huo Yuhao all along, and he wanted to figure out if this was love.
So he wanted to meet Huo Yuhao in person.
Not far away, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, brother and sister, stood side by side, having returned to the Sun Moon Academy's group.
Meng Hongchen narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at Huo Yuhao who was surrounded by a crowd, and snorted, "That womanizer actually makes so many girls fight over him. He's nowhere near as good as Wang Dong."
Upon hearing this, a fighting spirit flashed in Xiao Hongchen's eyes, and his Soul Power surged unconsciously around him. " Huo Yuhao..." he murmured softly, then said firmly, "I have completed my transformation. This time, I will definitely defeat you!"
Seemingly sensing this fighting spirit, Huo Yuhao's indifferent gaze pierced through the crowd, meeting Xiao Hongchen across the distance. A disdainful smile curled at the corner of his lips, and his voice, though soft, clearly reached the other's ears. "Judging from your aura, you have indeed improved considerably. However, your strengthening doesn't mean I've weakened, right?"
Just then, a figure rushed over like a whirlwind. Jiang Nannan's eyes were slightly red, and she hugged Huo Yuhao tightly without hesitation, her voice choked with sobs. " Yuhao, you're finally back... I missed you so much..." She buried her face deeply in Huo Yuhao's chest, as if she wanted to pour out all the longing she had felt during their separation.
Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback, then gently stroked her smooth, long hair and said softly, "Yes, I'm back." Although his tone remained calm, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, that emotion was buried deep in his eyes again, and he returned to his previous state, his gaze still so indifferent, as if he didn't care about anything.
Upon seeing this, Ma Xiaotao and the others immediately surrounded them. The fiery red figure approached, radiating a scorching aura.
Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms, raised an eyebrow, and smiled, " Yuhao, it seems you haven't neglected your cultivation even in the Sun Moon Sun Moon Empire. When we get back, you'll have to spar with me on the Soul Fighting Arena. My Ultimate Fire is quite strong now." Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, and the others also chimed in with questions about his experiences at the Sun Moon Academy.
Xuan Zi took a swig of wine and swayed over, a glint of light flashing in his cloudy old eyes. " Yuhao, your aura has improved quite a bit again." He looked around at the other students, shook his head and sighed, "Looks like these little brats in the academy will never catch up to you."
Huo Yuhao remained calm and said, "I was just lucky. Besides, my ability to cultivate to this level today is a natural consequence of hard work and perseverance."
