Douluo Continent, I, Huo Yuhao, defy fate with my spiritual eyes.

The dimly lit, secluded room was completely silent. Light escaped through the gaps in the branches and spilled onto the ground, providing the only source of light.

On an ordinary wooden recliner, an old man dressed in simple gray clothes, with a face full of deep wrinkles and drooping eyelids, lay there, looking frail and old.

Only his steady breathing testified to the fact that he was alive.

Yan Shaozhe pushed open the door and saw this scene. He slowed his steps, and Huo Yuhao followed suit. The two of them slowly walked to Mu En's side.

Before they even got close, Mu En suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and full of power. Seeing that it was two people, he gently beckoned them over.

As they walked, Yan Shaozhe introduced the various activities.

"This is Mu En, the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, one of the strongest Dragon God Douluo in the world, and also my teacher."

Although Huo Yuhao already knew that Mu En was the Dragon God Douluo, he still pretended to be surprised.

"Surprised? You never thought an old gatekeeper like me would be here."

The old man smiled gently and joked, his wrinkled face conveying a sense of kindness.

Yan Shaozhe was somewhat taken aback, but he didn't interrupt.

Huo Yuhao nodded vigorously, speaking with cheerful confidence.

"Yes, I didn't expect you to be sunbathing in front of the dormitory building."

There was a hint of reminiscence in Mu En's kind eyes.

"The vibe of youth is truly captivating. Being with you young people makes me feel like I've returned to my younger days."

Knowing Mu En's past and what he was reminiscing about—a regretful and sorrowful story—Huo Yuhao didn't ask any further questions.

Moon didn't dwell on it for long and got straight to the point.

"Hehe, I'm getting off topic. I asked you to come here not only to give you an explanation for Ma Xiaotao's attack on you, but also because there's something important about you."

This was the first time Huo Yuhao had experienced something so different from his previous life, so he immediately perked up.

"Please speak."

"Xiao Tao is Shao Zhe's disciple. She is an Ultimate Flame with a flaw. It is because of this flaw that she is sometimes out of control. As their elder, I apologize for not disciplining her properly."

Huo Yuhao was quite taken aback by the unexpectedly formal apology.

Are you kidding me? This is the Dragon God Douluo, the most esteemed person in the world, who actually lowered his pride to apologize to a one-ring Soul Master like myself!

Although he knew this was because his talent had been displayed and the special nature of his martial soul had been discovered.

But since the big shot is willing to show goodwill, why would I not accept it?

Huo Yuhao quickly waved his hand, indicating that everything was in the past and that Yan Shaozhe had apologized for it before, so Mu En didn't need to be so harsh on himself.

"This is different. An apology is an apology, and compensation is compensation. Especially for a genius like you with an ultimate spiritual martial soul, your life is not something that an apology can compare to."

As expected, his Golden Eyes of Truth had been discovered. Huo Yuhao understood. Ever since he suddenly fainted, Huo Yuhao knew that he couldn't hide this matter.

At this moment, Moon paused, raised his hand and took out a red card from somewhere, and continued speaking in a gentle voice.

"The academy has decided to compensate you with 100,000 gold soul coins. This is a red card from the Treasure Pavilion with a limit of 100,000. You can purchase the resources you need from the Treasure Pavilion."

100,000 Gold Soul Coins!

Huo Yuhao's mind went completely blank, with only countless gold soul coins dancing in his mind.

Nobody told him that he would receive such great benefits after showing his talent!

Although a Soul-Boosting Pill that enhances soul power is quite valuable, it is far less valuable than 100,000 gold soul coins.

With 100,000 gold soul coins, Huo Yuhao was confident that his cultivation speed could be increased several times over, and the equipment he needed for the far north could be upgraded significantly.

This was the first time Huo Yuhao in this life had ever handled such a large sum of money.

Overwhelmed with ecstasy, Huo Yuhao could only nod blankly.

Seeing this, Mu En and Yan Shaozhe exchanged a helpless smile. Mu En then used his soul skill slightly, his tongue as sharp as thunder.

"Wake up!"

The voice was gentle, seemingly with a cleansing effect, and Huo Yuhao felt his mind clear up instantly, regaining his rationality.

"I can't take this anymore, what's coming next is even more important."

Mu En joked, but knowing Huo Yuhao's poor family background, he didn't mean to mock him.

Huo Yuhao looked up, having already composed himself, and stared intently at Mu En.

"I wonder what this important matter about me you were talking about, senior?"

Mu En didn't rush to speak, but instead raised his hand, gesturing for Huo Yuhao to come closer.

A pair of thin, veiny hands patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder, and Huo Yuhao could see Mu En's eyes more clearly.

Moon's dim eyes held a kind and inquiring gaze.

"May I see your martial spirit?"

"Of course, no problem."

Huo Yuhao nodded, releasing his Golden Eyes of Truth. His pure and flawless spiritual power naturally leaked out, and that kind of approachable yet imposing feeling spread around with the spiritual power.

Feeling this unique fluctuation, Moon let out a long breath.

"Yes, this is the spirit of perfection!"

His tone was one of surprise at the extraordinary power of the Golden Eyes of Truth, but also of relief that someone in Shrek Academy would inherit his important mission in the future.

Then, Mu En stared intently at Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, would you be willing to become my disciple?"

Huo Yuhao was stunned, not expecting this scene to come so quickly.

But it makes sense, since the emergence of ultimate martial souls is always due to extraordinary individuals who lead the era, Shrek Academy would certainly not let it go unchecked.

In his mind, Huo Yuhao asked Electrolux.

"Teacher, what's your opinion?"

"It's alright. From what you've told me, Mu En seems to be a kind and righteous person. It wouldn't be a bad thing for you to take him as your master. As for having several masters?"

Electrolux suddenly fell silent, seemingly somewhat displeased.

Huo Yuhao was startled, thinking that Electrolux was unable to accept it, and quickly said.

"If the teacher is unwilling, I will find a way to refuse."

After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Electrolux burst into laughter and said to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.

"Hahahaha! I told you Yuhao wasn't that kind of person, Big Bug, you lost!"

Immediately, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, who was lazily lying to the side, curled its lip in disdain.

"Tch, you already promised Yuhao would consider your opinion, what else can I promise?"

"Well, you lost then. From now on, you can call me teacher. Don't worry, I'll teach you how to use your mental power. This title of teacher isn't for nothing."

After a few words, Huo Yuhao fell silent.

Judging from the situation, these two guys are betting on themselves.

Electrolux then spoke to Huo Yuhao.

"Go ahead and find a master! If you can grow even better, you can have ten thousand masters!"

These carefree and unrestrained words, yet full of concern for him, still belong to the teacher who would risk his life for him. Huo Yuhao remained silent for a long time, and finally just bowed deeply.

"Thank you, teacher!"

Emerging from the sea of ​​consciousness, Huo Yuhao immediately knelt down and bowed.

"Student Huo Yuhao greets teacher!"

With a quick, thin hand, Mu En helped Huo Yuhao up. Mu En nodded with a smile, looking very satisfied.

"From now on, you will be my last disciple, and I will do my best to train you."

As he spoke, Mu En took out a cyan ring from his pocket and placed it in Huo Yuhao's palm.

"This is a gift from your teacher; please don't refuse!"

Yan Shaozhe, standing to the side, also took out a necklace. A regular hexahedron was hanging from the simple silver chain. He said with a smile.

"From now on, you'll be my junior brother. This is my welcome gift!"

Huo Yuhao did not refuse.

"This disciple will certainly cultivate diligently and live up to the expectations of my teacher and senior brothers!"
