Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, they all have ulterior motives.

Chapter 10 (This last part is a bit awkward and doesn't translate well. It seems to be a fragment of a larger text.)

After being checked by the gatekeepers at the city gate, the two entered the bustling city, where people came and went, creating a lively atmosphere.

Compared to the silent Huo Yuhao, it was Huo Yun'er, the mother, who was constantly looking around at everything with curiosity in her eyes.

Suddenly, Huo Yuhao's voice rang in his ear.

"mom."

Hearing Huo Yuhao suddenly speak, Huo Yun'er looked down at him, "What's wrong?"

"I want to change my name to Huo Yuhao."

The sudden words startled Huo Yun'er, and before she could react, Huo Yuhao's voice rang out again.

"From now on, I am just your son, not the son of the White Tiger Duke. Those who bullied you in the Duke's mansion, I will make them all pay the price."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yun'er couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on the other person's hand.

In the past, she might have clung to the last vestiges of hope and tried to persuade Huo Yuhao, since it could give him a better future. But after experiencing so much, she could no longer bring herself to refuse him.

"Yuhao, don't be impulsive."

Huo Yun'er took a deep breath. "Mom doesn't care whether you can get revenge or not. As long as you can live a peaceful life, that's enough for me."

"Don't worry, Mom." Huo Yuhao's lips curved into a smile. "Your son is very capable..."

Just then, a commotion arose not far ahead of them. Pedestrians on the street seemed to have noticed the commotion, looking at each other, and some even approached with curious expressions.

The two arrived at the edge of the crowd. Huo Yuhao looked through the gap and saw a boy about his age standing in front of a blacksmith shop, staring at several middle-aged men who came out of the blacksmith shop with a gloomy expression.

"You promised to pay me monthly, and now that I've worked a full month, you're saying you'll deduct half?"

"Kid, don't you know any rules?"

The middle-aged man at the head of the group sneered, his expression disdainful.

"Go ask around, every blacksmith's apprentice who comes in has to give their first month's wages to their master. I'm already being very generous by only asking for half. Take it or leave it!"

As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, Huo Yuhao noticed a very subtle killing intent flash in the boy's eyes. He frowned and a thought suddenly arose in his mind, but he quickly suppressed it.

The boy was clearly unwilling to compromise so easily, and feeling that he was in the right, he raised his voice even higher.

"Even though I'm just an apprentice, I do just as much work as anyone else. Give me half of your wages!"

As more and more people gathered around, the middle-aged man seemed to get annoyed. "Want your wages? Fine! Give me back the scraps you've been secretly taking!"

He had noticed long ago that the new apprentice would use scraps to make things, secretly pocketing all the materials that could have been reused by remelting.

However, considering the other party's good skills, he had always turned a blind eye before.

But since the other party is so inconsiderate, there's no need to save face anymore.

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the people around immediately understood that this was nothing more than a dogfight. Strange eyes swept over the boy, making his already gloomy face look even darker.

The boy was none other than Tang San after his rebirth. In order to save money for his martial soul awakening and to buy medicinal herbs, he had no choice but to work at another blacksmith shop. After all, his family's blacksmith shop was doing very poor business, and if his father knew that he could make money by blacksmithing, he would probably have to hand over all the money.

As a person who values ​​filial piety above all else, it was only right for him to buy wine for his father. However, he believed that becoming stronger would allow him to better fulfill his filial duties, which is why he secretly chose to work as a blacksmith outside to earn money.

Unexpectedly, the blacksmith shop owner targeted him because he was young and easy to bully.

He was just using some scraps to make hidden weapons. He did the same thing in his previous life, and he wasn't the only one taking things from the blacksmith shop. Yet the other party ignored everyone else and publicly criticized him.

No wonder blacksmiths are having a hard time these days. If every blacksmith shop oppresses newcomers and demands kickbacks, who will want to be a blacksmith in the future?

In his previous life, he was the son of a master craftsman and had a close relationship with the three master craftsmen of that time. Naturally, he would not tolerate anyone defiling the sacred profession of blacksmithing.

Looking at the boss in front of him, he clenched his fist tightly, but then relaxed it.

There was no other way; he was still too weak. Although he could easily deal with a few blacksmiths with his hidden weapons, they were in Tiandou City after all. Once a fight broke out, the law enforcement team that arrived would not be to be underestimated. So he could only endure it for the time being.

Patience!

The knowledge he gained at Yuexuan in his previous life came into play again at this moment. Tang San was able to become an enforcer of the God Realm step by step, and what he relied on was not only strength, but more importantly, his ability to judge the situation!

After forcibly suppressing the killing intent in his heart, Tang San took a deep breath and said calmly.

"I thought those scraps were just discarded and useless, and I took some because I couldn't bear to waste them. But since you've said that, I'll waive half of the wages; you can use that to offset the difference."

Let you live a little longer, until some time later...

Judging from their practiced manner, they must have made a lot of money through dishonest means. In his previous life, as an enforcer of the divine realm and known as the upright and incorruptible Asura God, Tang San naturally had to act on behalf of Heaven.

If he happens to find the ill-gotten gains they've made, he can use them to buy herbs to awaken his martial soul, which can be considered a reward for his good deeds.

If he weren't afraid of others associating him with the incident, he would have taken action tonight. Unfortunately, in order to clear himself of suspicion, he has to continue to lie low for a while and wait for the hype to die down before making his move.

After saying that, he didn't linger any longer, and walked through the crowd under everyone's gaze, leaving directly.

Huo Yuhao, who was silently watching all this from the crowd, had a rather strange expression on his face.

Why does it taste so strong?

A strange sense of familiarity welled up in Huo Yuhao's heart, and he suddenly realized something.

Is it possible that Tang San was also reborn like me?

Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered, but he quickly calmed down. Although he was not sure if Tang San had been reborn with him, he was definitely focused on improving his own strength.

Even if the other party really was reborn in the Douluo Continent, he wasn't worried at all. After all, if they were truly on the same starting line, he didn't think Tang San would be stronger than him.

What he truly needed to deal with was that thing in the sky.

Contrary to expectations, no conflict erupted. Those who had intended to watch the show dispersed with sighs of disappointment, while Huo Yuhao called out to the middle-aged man who was about to return to the blacksmith shop.

"Hello, I'd like to order a custom oven."

The middle-aged man paused, turned around and was slightly taken aback when he saw Huo Yuhao, but because Huo Yun'er was beside him, he did not look down on him because of his young age.

"Young man, what kind of oven do you need?"
