Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 395 The Money-Giving Boy Can't Be Poisoned (8K)

Huo Yuhao was naturally delighted by Qian Duoduo's breakthrough, but he was also somewhat puzzled.

"Teacher, what extraordinary adventures have you had lately? How did you break through to Super Douluo without even realizing it?"

When Huo Yuhao asked him this, Qian Duoduo's old face became a little embarrassed, and he said awkwardly, "Isn't it because I was beaten up by that guy Du Bu Si before? I've had some insights in my heart ever since, but I just haven't been able to grasp them."

"I suddenly realized it a few days ago. By integrating the insights I gained from that battle, breaking through to Super Douluo was a natural outcome."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao scratched his head. Which battle?

How come he remembered that his teacher rushed up and was slapped away by the poisoner with two slaps?

Of course, Huo Yuhao wouldn't say anything more about such an unpleasant thing, but he felt even more favorably disposed towards Du Busi.

What a kind person.

My own Flowing Water Stepping Moon Technique and Qian Duoduo's successful breakthrough to level 95 are both inextricably linked to the other party. Thinking about it this way, Du Bu Si is simply a money-giving boy.

I heard that Poison Undying also sent Brother Long Aotian over. We can invite him to dinner tonight. Poison Undying, as his master, is so good at making gold coins. Who knows, maybe Long Aotian can also make a lot of gold coins?

Before long, Ning Ge and Jie Zhu also came in. The three of them were quite in sync and immediately gave each other a tight hug, as if they were seeing who would suffocate first.

"Chico (bro), thank goodness I had the invincible shield you just gave me. You'd never guess what disgusting things Lao Ning and I encountered on our reconnaissance mission. God, I feel nauseous just thinking about it."

Once he was exceptionally talkative, he immediately started talking. He had been holding back for a while, as the situations encountered by the procuratorial team were, in principle, not to be discussed with outsiders.

He told Ning Ge that Ning Ge had carried out the prosecutorial team mission with him, and there was nothing much to say about it. He could talk about it with his family, but Jiechu was afraid that if he told his mother, it would make her worry, so he had kept his mouth shut these days.

Now that Huo Yuhao is someone to confide in, Zhuo Jie's mouth talks non-stop like a machine gun, making Huo Yuhao's head spin, as if he had been hit by two mental shocks.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao quickly extracted the useful information from Jie Zhu's words. Apart from Jie Zhu's complicated description of the bloody scene mixed with intense slang, and the scene of him and Ning Ge displaying great power and killing the enemy in a panic, Jie Zhu and Ning Ge's mission this time was actually not complicated.

In the border region between Xingluo and Riyue, the two followed a clue about human trafficking and eventually found a hideout of evil soul masters. When they went in to wipe out the enemy, they ran into a leader of evil soul masters at the Soul Saint level. Fortunately, they had an invincible shield, which allowed them to hold out until their teacher came to their rescue.

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao fell silent.

What's wrong with that guy's brain? Doesn't he realize that if it weren't for that invincible shield, he might not have been able to come back?

The difficulty of the inner court's inspection team is astonishingly high. Fortunately, the inner court has now launched a reform plan, which should be able to enhance the comprehensive abilities of the inner court students to a certain extent. In addition, with the invincible shield, the casualties of the inner court disciples should be reduced immediately in the coming period.

After exchanging pleasantries with the two for a while, Huo Yuhao steered the conversation back on track.

"Teacher, I'll be going to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy as an exchange student soon, but before that, I want to start the new project first."

As Huo Yuhao spoke, he glanced at Ning Ge.

Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo immediately understood Huo Yuhao's meaning: "So you're planning to accept the research topic your senior brother left behind in Experimental Zone Eleven?"

Huo Yuhao nodded.

Qian Duoduo didn't think too much and immediately agreed to Huo Yuhao's request: "That's easy. You just got so many good things from the Star Luo Royal Family. Our Soul Guidance Department won't lack funding for several years. If you want to take over this project, then take it."

"The academy doesn't have much pure purple gold in its reserves, but fortunately, the Star Luo Empire's compensation includes a considerable amount of pure purple gold, enough for the two of you to use for a while."

This belated exchange lasted until noon.

After Huo Yuhao personally cooked a sumptuous lunch, and everyone ate until their bellies were full, Huo Yuhao left the Soul Guidance Department.

At the dinner table, Huo Yuhao had already asked Ning Ge to contact Ning Tian to discuss the spice business. Since entering the academy, Huo Yuhao himself hadn't had much time to take care of the spices; it had been Huo Yun'er who had been managing them, and they were still using the academy's land.

However, this also has an advantage: he only needs to convey his ideas, and Ning Tian can contact people within his sect to come to the academy to discuss it. Then, the people from the academy and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School will be the ones to negotiate. Huo Yun'er and Huo Yuhao do not need to go through the trouble of finding a solution.

Shrek Academy is like a huge resource exchange center. Disciples of powerful families can quickly find upstream and downstream links for any business they want and finalize a big deal that outsiders would find dizzying and would have to think twice before making a decision.

If Huo Yuhao were just an ordinary soul master mercenary at this time, no matter how strong his talent was, without these connections, he wouldn't be able to do this business. Even if he made contact with the right people, he would still have to worry about being double-crossed.

The saying "It's good to have a big tree to lean on" perfectly illustrates this point.

After bidding farewell to the group, Huo Yuhao rushed towards Shrek Academy's inner courtyard without stopping. He had come to Qian Duoduo's side, and naturally, he couldn't leave Yan Shaozhe's side as well. Long Aotian, as a half-exchange student, or rather, a hostage placed by Du Busi at Shrek Academy, was also in Shrek Academy's inner courtyard.

Since the other party came to Shrek Academy because of my own reasons, it wouldn't be appropriate not to pay them a visit.

Huo Yuhao's time was extremely tight as he had to venture deep into the Star Dou Forest tomorrow to hunt for his third spirit ring.

Walking along the road, Huo Yuhao felt quite emotional. In just a few years, he seemed to have made more friends than he had killed any rare and powerful figures in Ashina.

During their time at the academy, they were just friends and classmates. But after graduation, when Huo Yuhao calmed down and thought things through, he discovered that this poor boy who was originally penniless, without any connections or background had actually mastered a terrifying super network of relationships.

No wonder so many minor nobles and sects are scrambling to get their children into Shrek Academy.

Once you graduate from Shrek Academy, even if you are just an ordinary graduate from an outer academy, the resources you possess may be unimaginable to most people.

In an instant, Huo Yuhao understood why, after his barbecue stall was targeted, it only aroused the righteous indignation of the Shrek Academy students, and before anything could be resolved, no more petty people dared to make a move.

These people know better than anyone whether money or life is more important.
