Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 483 Beating Up the Clingy Thug (Daily 10,000 words)

Today, Huo Yuhao has been here for eleven months since he came from Shrek Academy, and he is finally about to have a month-long rest.

Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy has one thing in common with Shrek Academy: its holiday starts a few days later than Shrek Academy's, but both have a month-long break.

However, Huo Yuhao wasn't sure what he could do during his vacation. After all, if he wanted to go out, he could just ask Xuan Xinwen for a sick leave slip. Even if Xuan Xinwen was sometimes unwilling to give one, Huo Yuhao could simply beat up Ji Juechen and then conveniently accompany Ji Juechen on his sick leave.

Don't ask, the answer is that the school doctors are all quacks, and this problem can only be cured by going out to seek treatment.

During the eleven months of cultivation, his cultivation level increased from level 44 when he first left the academy to level 47. His cultivation speed decreased again, but fortunately, Huo Yuhao had already reached the edge of level 48. Rounding up, he had improved his cultivation level by about four levels in a year.

In any case, before the start of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament, Huo Yuhao would definitely have no problem reaching the Soul King level. As for Soul Emperor...

This is far too difficult for Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao opened his mission log. Another half year had passed, and Electrolux's research on artificial martial souls had made some progress. He also had some ideas on how to awaken martial souls for the undead.

However, Electrolux still hasn't managed to create artificial soul cores, so while his undead army currently possesses martial souls, it has no soul power whatsoever.

After checking off the logs that Nana handed him, Huo Yuhao flipped through the pages and saw a row of tasks in the list of unstarted missions.

[Research on the implementation principle of the level nine soul tool, the Conferred God Platform]

[Creating an alchemical necromancer that perfectly matches one's own aura]

[Taking over the research on the giant humanoid metal soul tool from Mingde Hall]

[Analyzing and reverse engineering the Evil Eye Gaze Ray Energy Cannon created by the Siren Soul Master]

[Continue the development of precision mind control soul tools.]

Looking at the series of tasks on the mission log that hadn't even started yet, Huo Yuhao sighed.

Even so, I'm still on vacation. I should take the Conferred God Platform over and study it first. I wonder when all these tasks that I haven't even started yet will be in progress.

Huo Yuhao was in a real bind. He was just about to examine the Conferred God Platform placed inside the Gate of the Dead when he heard an access bell ring.

"Yuhao!" A rough voice came from outside the door.

"Brother He, what brings you here?" Huo Yuhao opened the door to the training area, and there stood He Caitou, looking excited.

He Caitou looked at him with a mysterious expression, "Yuhao, I have a surprise for you."

"A surprise? For me? Have you successfully researched another new fixed-installation soul tool?" Huo Yuhao looked at him with surprise.

He knew that although He Caitou's studies were not going well, he still managed to learn a lot of good things by studying the books in Mingdetang.

He Caitou said irritably, "Alright, alright. You're almost going crazy from studying. Every day it's just the training area, Mingde Hall, the Soul Fighting area, and the dormitory. Aren't you annoyed at all? You should relax when you need to. Always being so tense isn't a good thing."

Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat, because someone else had said the same thing to him, and more than once. However, that person always had a malicious intent when saying it, because most of the time they were thinking about leaving him a few levels behind so they could find an opportunity to beat him up.

Thinking about the other person, Huo Yuhao's expression turned into a "囧" (embarrassed/awkward). He hadn't even reached level 48 yet, while that guy was probably already a Soul King and was already charging towards the Soul Emperor realm.

"Hey, Yuhao, I'm talking to you, pay attention." He Caitou grabbed Huo Yuhao's shoulder and shook him, clearly annoyed.

Huo Yuhao quickly ushered him into the room and lowered his voice, asking, "Is there any new information about the Holy Spirit Cult?"

He Caitou had also signed a contract early on. Every day after class, he would go into the undead demiplane and wouldn't come out until the next class. He would take the soul tool blueprints that Huo Yuhao had copied and devour them. Therefore, Huo Yuhao did not hide the matter of the Holy Spirit Cult from him.

He Caitou rolled his eyes and didn't go inside. Standing at the door, his burly figure looked like a giant door god.

"No, that's not it. The Holy Spirit Cult has been on edge lately, and even Dean Qian couldn't find their whereabouts. Alright, come with me quickly. Let's go to the school gate."

"Let's not go. I finally have some time to work on a new project today," Huo Yuhao politely declined He Caitou's suggestion.

He Caitou feigned anger and said, "So all that I just told you was a waste of time and effort? Hurry up, you'll regret it if you don't go."

As he spoke, He Caitou pulled Huo Yuhao and ran outside.

Huo Yuhao looked helpless, but he couldn't bear to refuse He Caitou's kindness. However, he wasn't in the mood to accept any surprises at the moment.

He didn't think he could expect any surprises other than a breakthrough in cultivation. This was the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, not Shrek Academy; breaking through to level 48 as quickly as possible was the top priority.

Soon, Huo Yuhao was pulled by He Caitou to the spacious playground.

"Brother He, don't pull me, I'll go with you." Huo Yuhao had no choice but to compromise.

He Caitou stopped and looked at him strangely, saying, "Fine, don't force yourself. Why don't you just not go? Don't blame me if you regret it later." As he spoke, he released Huo Yuhao's hand and turned to leave.

Huo Yuhao quickly caught up and said with a smile, "The new project can start anytime, no rush, let's go."

He Caitou laughed heartily.

Before he even reached the door, he bumped into two clingy people.

"Hey, it's really not easy to spot a cultivation maniac like you on campus in broad daylight."

Jing Ziyan, with her innocent and harmless wife-like appearance, smiled at Huo Yuhao, while Ji Juechen, whose eyes were always shining, followed beside her.

"Stop, I have other things to do today, this is not the time for sparring."

Huo Yuhao immediately felt a headache upon seeing these two.

Ji Juechen is a genius, but his personality of always looking for a fight is really troublesome. The key is that this guy is completely unconvinced. Like Wang Dong, he can only behave for a few days after being beaten up before jumping out again with his claws bared.

Now, Huo Yuhao is considering whether to trick these two unlucky kids into signing contracts with him as well. He doesn't expect to have two more employees to help him fight, but at least they shouldn't bother him with fighting anymore.
