Huo Yuhao's Many Experiences

The month that Xu Xingyu spent in Deep Meditation was anything but peaceful in the Outer Court, largely thanks to Huo Yuhao, the protagonist of the original novel.

Ever since that entrance exam, Huo Yuhao has become arrogant. He doesn't actually act arrogantly or domineeringly, like always boasting about how strong he is.

But ever since that exam, he has been constantly challenging any of the top students in the second year, and then defeating them soundly.

Even Wang Dong'er, Xu Yanxue, and Huo Yuhao could only remain undefeated in their duel, and these two were already close to the Soul Ancestor level!

Huo Yuhao is at most a Soul Grandmaster who is close to Soul Elder!

Although this ability to fight beyond one's level isn't as monstrous as Xu Xingyu's, it's still quite unusual.

Because both Wang Dong'er and Xu Yanxue's Martial Soul were modified by the Martial Soul of gods; one is the daughter of God King, and the other is the successor of the Ice God.

Therefore, their combat strength cannot be judged by their superficial levels. But even so, how could Huo Yuhao, with his cultivation as a Soul Grandmaster, contend with them?

This doesn't seem normal at all, does it?

Putting aside whether Huo Yuhao can actually do it, even if he does successfully turn the Ice Empress into his Martial Soul, his combat power should not be this strong!

Furthermore, according to Wang Dong'er and Xu Yanxue, Huo Yuhao's Second Martial Soul this time is not Ice Empress at all, but something like Ice Fang White Tiger?

Could it be that Huo Yuhao's absorption of White Tiger -type Soul Beast activated the Evil Eyes White Tiger bloodline within him, even attracting the attention of the legendary Evil Eye Holy King?

If that's the case, then Huo Yuhao's combat power would increase dramatically, which isn't entirely unacceptable. Although the Evil Eyes White Tiger's cultivation level is only at the Second-Level God, its combat power is comparable to that of First-Level God.

When the White Tiger God Position was first created, both the Evil Eyes White Tiger and Xu Xingyu Kang Metal White Tiger, Xu Xingyu's subordinate, were considered the most powerful contenders.

Although Kang Metal White Tiger won that battle and became the White Tiger God, the Evil Eye Holy King, as a competitor, was by no means weak.

However, this at most only makes Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er, and Xu Yanxue equal in terms of Martial Soul, and it cannot explain why Huo Yuhao, as a Soul Grandmaster, could withstand either Wang Dong'er or Xu Yanxue.

Even with the aid of Spiritual Detection and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's natal bead, it shouldn't be this powerful.

Could it be that Huo Yuhao obtained an opportunity in the Far North that wasn't mentioned in the original novel, causing his combat power to increase so dramatically?

This made Xu Xingyu begin to feel wary of Huo Yuhao, the protagonist of the original novel, for the first time.

Previously, Xu Xingyu had intended to win him over because they had no grudges against each other. As for Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, he originally wanted to return the source power that Xu Xingyu had unintentionally stolen when they became friends.

But who knew that Huo Yuhao wouldn't give him a chance to befriend him at all? Instead, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm instilled in him the idea that he was a ruthless villain who committed all sorts of evil deeds.

Therefore, after the freshman assessment, Xu Xingyu planned to ignore Huo Yuhao completely. As long as he didn't provoke her or the people he loved, he could do whatever he wanted.

However, there's no way to completely ignore Huo Yuhao now; a god who might be her enemy is Xu Xingyu should pay attention to.

Xu Xingyu then began to inquire about more information regarding Huo Yuhao.

According to Wang Dong'er, the relationship between Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin is somewhat strange. Every time Dai Huabin encounters Huo Yuhao, they become friendly, but Huo Yuhao ignores him.

Dai Huabin was not annoyed by this, and instead always dealt with Huo Yuhao in a calm and unperturbed manner.

One day, Huo Yuhao couldn't stand Dai Huabin's constant nagging any longer and started yelling at him, saying how hypocritical Dai Huabin was. He accused Dai Huabin of kicking his mother to death and then smiling and joking around with him, only to then send people to assassinate him.

How could Dai Huabin, a young nobleman, tolerate being falsely accused like this? The two immediately started arguing and even began to fight.

In the end, to prevent the matter from escalating, Old Madam Zhou separated the two and punished them by making each of them run two hundred laps around the track.

At this Xu Yanxue began to recount her feelings for Huo Yuhao within the Soul Tool Department.

Since Huo Yuhao was selected as another candidate for the Ultimate Soldier in the Soul Tool Department, the two have been competing against each other every day after school in the Soul Tool Department.

About a week ago, Xu Yanxue and Huo Yuhao were told that they would have to undergo an assessment to determine who was the most suitable person for the Ultimate Soldier position.

The assessment consists of three parts, each with a maximum score of ten points. The final selection will be determined by the total score.

The first test was to create a Soul Tool within a limited time.

Its performance will be determined by many factors, including production speed, quality, and creativity.

In that exam, Xu Yanxue used the knowledge of the Soul Tool Department she learned at the Spirit Contract Pagoda to create a Level 4 Soul Cannon that could automatically recharge, easily earning a high score of 10. Huo Yuhao, on the other hand, borrowed the Tang Sect's Hundred Solutions of Hidden Weapon to create a half-finished Godly Zhuge Crossbow Cannon, earning 7 points.

The second assessment was a test of infiltration skills, similar to the postgraduate entrance examination.

The two must infiltrate a specific area of Beast Dueling Area and steal back the documents they had previously placed there.

Whoever gets the information and brings it back the fastest will get a higher score.

During this period, you should avoid too many conflicts with the Soul Beast in the Beast Dueling Area; try not to attract their attention if possible.

Each time a conflict occurs with a Soul Beast, five seconds will be added to the total time.

In this exam, Huo Yuhao used his shameless Simulation Soul Skill to bypass the data on the beast horde and then returned the way he came.

During this process, Huo Yuhao did not provoke any Soul Beast and directly obtained a perfect score of ten.

Xu Yanxue's situation is a bit more complicated, because her Martial Soul is not the kind that is suitable for concealment. It would be fine in an atmosphere like the Far North, but this sunny place is not suitable for Xu Yanxue to do infiltration work.

In the end Xu Yanxue unintentionally provoked three Soul Beast on her way back, which added fifteen seconds to her time, and she passed with a score of six.

The most important third exam tests an individual's abilities.

Each person will face three thousand-year-old Soul Beast, and then the teachers will score them based on their combat performance.

In this exam, Xu Yanxue, relying on her years of experience as Ferocious Beast, scored eight points.

Huo Yuhao also performed exceptionally well in his battle, but only received a score of seven due to his overly violent fighting style.

The final score was a tie, 24 to 24!

After discussions among many teachers from the Soul Tool Department, they ultimately decided to select Huo Yuhao as the implementer of the Ultimate Soldier Plan.

The main reason is that infiltration skills are crucial for the Ultimate Soldier Plan. While other personal abilities and Soul Tool manufacturing skills are also important, these can be developed.

Having this amazing skill of Simulation infiltration means you don't need to spend too much time learning infiltration techniques.
