Chapter 9 I, Huo Yuhao, will listen to advice!

The dormitory building occupies a vast area, and although it's a single building, it features four colors: white, yellow, purple, and black. These colors represent the different areas where students from lower to higher grades live, and it has six floors in total.

Huo Yuhao went straight to the entrance of the white dormitory building and immediately saw an elderly man sitting there.

The old man was dressed in a gray cloth robe, his face was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were dim and yellow, and his eyelids drooped, giving him the appearance of someone who was old and frail.

The sunlight between the buildings falls perfectly on the elderly person, and the reclining chair looks quite comfortable.

"Hey, Yuhao, this person's cultivation is quite impressive?" Suddenly, Yao Lao's voice appeared in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

Along the way, Yao Lao also used Huo Yuhao's words to inquire with Tianmeng Bingcan about the methods of using spiritual power, or rather, soul power, in Douluo Continent.

He is now able to enter Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea or communicate with Huo Yuhao through spiritual dialogue.

Huo Yuhao smiled faintly and said in his spiritual sea, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the strongest person in Shrek Academy right now, a level 99 Limit Douluo, the Dragon God Douluo Mu En. Teacher, you see, he absorbed all the sunlight falling on him into his body, which shows that his control over the light attribute is as good as his own."

Of course, he couldn't possibly be wrong, because that's exactly how it was written in the original work.

"A level 99 Limit Douluo, hmm, that's interesting," Yao Lao said.

"Teacher, will he discover your existence?" Huo Yuhao asked with some concern.

As one of the strongest individuals on the Douluo Continent, Mu En's strength was beyond his imagination.

If he discovers that I carry a soul entity with me, the best outcome would be that I would be treated as an evil soul master, have my soul power destroyed, and be banished.

"Don't worry, he can't detect my presence yet," the old apothecary said with a chuckle. "However, if you want to learn how to refine medicine, it's best not to live in this academy. After all, this dormitory building is too close to him, and even if I use my soul power to conceal myself for you, he can easily find clues."

"I understand." Huo Yuhao nodded knowingly, and immediately made up his mind.

Feigning an impeccable air of ignorance, Huo Yuhao stepped forward respectfully and said, "Hello, sir. I'm a freshman here to move into the dormitory. Would you like to check my freshman badge?"

Without looking up, Moon extended his trembling right hand, and a hoarse, low voice rang out, "Let me see your badge and dorm key."

Huo Yuhao handed over his freshman badge and dormitory key. Mu En glanced at them and then said, "Go ahead. Dorm 108 is the third room on the left on the first floor. The fourth floor and up are girls' dormitories. You can't go up there; if you are caught, you'll be expelled."

"Yeah, I get it. You need to book a room off-campus, right?" Huo Yuhao thought to himself.

He bowed to Mu En again to express his gratitude, then walked straight into the dormitory building. Mu En, however, kept glancing at Huo Yuhao's retreating figure out of the corner of his eye, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"An interesting child, but using your mental power to spy on others indiscriminately is not a good habit. I'll forgive you this time because you've been very polite."

Following the directions given by Moon, Huo Yuhao quickly found the location of dormitory number 108.

He could also see that the dormitory building was quite old, having been used for many years. There was a communal toilet at the end of each side of the corridor, just like the dormitory setup of a typical junior high or high school on Earth in his previous life.

It's truly remarkable that the person who came up with such an incredible dormitory setup. Could it be that all the money Shrek Academy has collected over the years has been embezzled by the higher-ups?

Another crucial question is, even though Wang Dong is a woman disguised as a man, shouldn't she lack some essential physical amenities? The dormitory uses communal bathrooms, so how does she use the toilet normally?

Even if she goes when no one's around, shouldn't she at least check beforehand? What if she goes in and happens to run into a guy releasing floodwaters? Wouldn't that be...

Yes, at least a fine of three hundred yuan.

The door to dormitory 108 was open, and Huo Yuhao walked straight in, only to find that there was already a "boy" inside.

The boy had delicate features, fair skin, and a pair of unusual large eyes that were a light pinkish-blue. His neat short hair was also the same color. He was about the same height and age as Huo Yuhao. He was none other than Wang Dong'er, the hero fragment of Tang Shenwang's beloved daughter.

Of course, he should still be called Wang Dong now.

"Who are you?" Wang Dong asked arrogantly as Huo Yuhao entered the dormitory. "Oh, you're the one who shares a dormitory with me? Very well, you have half an hour to clean the dormitory, and then I'll allow you to stay with me temporarily."

"However, there are a few rules you need to remember. First, you're not allowed to bring anyone back to the dorm without permission. Second, you're not allowed to be naked in the dorm and annoy others. Third, you're not allowed to snore at night. Fourth, don't disturb me. Fifth, you're responsible for cleaning the dorm from now on, but don't touch my bed. Understand?"

Huo Yuhao glanced around the dormitory. The room hadn't been lived in for at least a month, and it was covered with a thick layer of dust.

Wang Dong's luggage was still on the only relatively clean table in the room, indicating that this pampered princess had no idea how to do housework.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't come, she probably would have had to sleep on this table tonight too.

"Why should I listen to you?" Huo Yuhao said with a slight smile.

Wang Dong snorted coldly and said, "If you don't listen to me, I'll throw you out. You can try me if you don't believe me."

"No, there's no need to try." Huo Yuhao smiled again and shook his head. "Listen to advice and you'll eat your fill. My biggest characteristic is that I listen to advice. Since you won't let me stay in this dormitory, then I'll leave."

Shrugging, Huo Yuhao walked straight out of the dormitory building. Wang Dong stared at Huo Yuhao with a bewildered expression, hesitated for a moment, and then followed him.

Back at the dormitory building entrance, Huo Yuhao stood in front of Mu En. Mu En, with a mixture of surprise and amusement on his face, looked at Huo Yuhao with a rather strange expression.

"As expected, he was able to sense everything that just happened." Huo Yuhao was immediately certain and smiled as he asked Mu En, "Grandpa, is it possible for students from our academy to rent houses in Shrek City?"

Mu En was slightly taken aback; even he hadn't expected Huo Yuhao to ask such a question.

"It's not allowed in principle, but..."

"But my roommate seems to strongly object to me sharing a dorm room with her, so I'm currently homeless. If you don't agree, I'll have no choice but to live with you," Huo Yuhao said with a touch of roguishness.

"Hehe, you little rascal, you really are something." Mu En smiled helplessly, a strange glint in his eyes.

"Okay, go back to the registration office and return the dormitory key to them. After that, you can rent a place to live in Shrek City. But you should be aware that prices in Shrek City are very high."

Huo Yuhao nodded with a smile and walked straight towards the registration area. Wang Dong also chased after him from the dormitory, watching Huo Yuhao's retreating figure with a somewhat disdainful smile.

"You don't even have the courage to fight? You think you can gain a foothold in Shrek Academy with a coward like you?"

Upon hearing Wang Dong's words, Huo Yuhao turned around and smiled faintly. He picked up a piece of gravel about the size of a head from the side and casually tossed it into the air.

Then he shifted his feet, tilted his body slightly, and lashed out with his elbow, striking the piece of gravel squarely.

"Eight Extremes Collapse!"

"boom!"

White stone dust filled the air, and the piece of gravel instantly transformed into countless small stones the size of peanuts.

A thoughtful look appeared in Mu En's eyes, while Wang Dong scoffed at Huo Yuhao's actions.

"Is he trying to provoke me? He doesn't dare to actually fight me, so he's taking his anger out on a broken rock. It's ridiculous."

However, Mu En watched Huo Yuhao's departing figure, chuckled, shook his head, and said, "If you really fight him, you might not be his match."

"Why?!" Wang Dong shouted indignantly. "I'm clearly much stronger than him. If I wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't even be able to touch me. How could he possibly beat me?"

Mu En pointed to Huo Yuhao's elbow, which was occasionally exposed as he moved, and it was already bright red.

"His ability to endure is far superior to yours. If it really comes down to a life-or-death struggle, he will not feel any fear. But you are different; you are fearless in the face of death, and not everyone can do that."

Wang Dong paused slightly upon hearing this, but said nothing. He simply bowed to Mu En and returned directly to his dormitory.

After Wang Dong left, Mu En's gaze became profound. He stretched out his old, withered hand, trying to imitate Huo Yuhao's earlier movements, but he seemed unable to quite grasp the technique.

"A self-created soul skill? But this power... indeed, there are quite a few more little monsters in the academy this year."

Although Shrek Academy does not allow students to stay off-campus in principle, the teachers at the registration office immediately completed all the procedures for Huo Yuhao as soon as they heard that the order was personally given by the person who was lying dead at the entrance of the freshman teaching building.

Although few students knew this, the teachers at Shrek Academy all understood that he was the current head of the Sea God Pavilion, the highest decision-maker at Shrek Academy. Since even he had agreed, there was no need to set any rules or regulations.

Prices in Shrek City were indeed very high. Huo Yuhao found a hotel in the city and settled on a monthly accommodation fee of 300 gold soul coins.

However, the hotel only provides accommodation, not meals. Huo Yuhao needs to eat at the Shrek Academy cafeteria every day before he can return to the hotel.

Although it was a bit troublesome, it was all worth it. After all, he didn't want to cultivate something that didn't belong to this world's system under other people's noses, otherwise it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

Three days later was the start of the school year. Lying on the big bed in the hotel, Huo Yuhao recalled the notice he had seen on the class assignment bulletin board.

Huo Yuhao, Class 1 of Freshmen, Class Teacher: Zhou Yi!
