Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 540 Soup Gourd and Wine Gourd (Daily 10,000 words)

The students and teachers from both sides quickly called out to each other and came to their respective teachers' sides.

Only they themselves truly know how much they learned and gained during the two and a half years of exchange and learning.

Now there is only one thing that both sides agree on—at this moment, this exchange and learning has finally come to an end.

Goodbye.

I am unwilling to linger in this mortal world.

After greeting Deans Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, and Qian Duoduo, he led his students to release their soul tools and take off directly from the city, heading straight for the sky, not afraid of attracting attention at all.

Yan Shaozhe watched them disappear into the distant sky before turning his gaze back and smiling as he surveyed the trainees who had completed their exchange program.

"Welcome home, children."

A simple sentence, yet it warmed the hearts of all the students in the Soul Guidance Department, and some were even moved to tears.

Yes, it's time to go home!

"Duoduo, let's take everyone to the hotel over there to get something to eat first. We're not in such a hurry like Jing Hongchen; we can eat before we set off."

Yan Shaozhe smiled broadly. Shrek Academy had made a fortune from this exchange and learning experience. Moreover, with the three Super Douluo of Shrek Academy all present, it didn't really matter whether they were on the road a little faster or slower.

During the meal, the students and teachers were divided into two private rooms.

Huo Yuhao and He Caitou, the two great contributors, naturally sat with the three deans.

Once all the dishes were served, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but release her soul power to seal off the private room, staring intently at the dishes.

"Caitou, I heard from Yuhao that you were asking for the moon, trying to cut off Jing Hongchen's manhood. Let me see what good stuff you brought back."

Upon hearing this, Xian Lin'er spat at Qian Duoduo, saying, "Vulgar! How can you say such things?"

He Caitou chuckled and, without saying a word, took off the huge star sapphire ring from his finger.

Qian Duoduo's mental energy only briefly scanned the ring before he was shocked and nearly dropped it on the ground.

"My goodness, the amount of these top-grade rare metals is something Shrek Academy might not be able to accumulate in a hundred years. You can't just throw money at it; you can only hope that those mules are lucky enough to bring over even a little bit."

"No wonder you insisted that I notify the academy in advance. If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to resist taking action! Luckily, we invited Elder Xuan here this time, otherwise, with just the three of us Super Douluos, we might not have been able to protect these treasures."

Xian Lin'er also looked curious, and Qian Duoduo handed her the ring directly.

Upon seeing the thirty silver dragon scales, and the top-grade rare metals such as purple-gold copper and heavenly spirit silver, which were not measured in grams but almost in tons, Xian Lin'er paled and her hand holding the storage ring trembled.

Putting aside everything else, with these top-grade rare metals, Shrek Academy will be able to produce several level-nine soul tools in just a few years.

"Caitou, when you get back, ask Beibei and Xiaoya if the academy can use this rare metal internally. Don't let the three great empires interfere. They can't make a soul tool with this top-grade rare metal. Don't worry, the academy's price will definitely not be low."

Xianlin'er's face was filled with a radiant smile of relief and undisguised joy as she handed the ring back to He Caitou.

Yan Shaozhe smiled and said, "Caitou, your skills are no worse than Duoduo's and Yuhao's. You even managed to leave with a comment about the mortal world."

Qian Duoduo laughed heartily. With Huo Yuhao and He Caitou, these two precious gems, how could the Soul Guidance Department not have the opportunity to take off?

Lucky stars! And two lucky stars at once!

"Good, very good. But you two little ones haven't fallen behind in your cultivation, especially you, Cai Tou. If your cultivation doesn't keep up, I don't know how I'll explain it to Teacher Fan Yu."

He Caitou chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Dean Qian, I'll try my best to break through to the sixth ring before the next competition and make sure I don't embarrass the Shrek Academy's main team."

Upon hearing this, the deans' eyes lit up.

"And what about you, Yuhao? You've changed quite a bit in the last two years, haven't you?"

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, and five spirit rings—yellow, purple, black, black, and red—emerged, directly blasting out Elder Xuan, who had been diving nearby.

"A 100,000-year spirit ring? Where did you get a 100,000-year spirit ring?"

Elder Xuan's tone was filled with shock. He was certain that Huo Yuhao's fifth soul ring contained an extremely rich life force, which Huo Yuhao could not simulate. Huo Yuhao's 100,000-year soul ring was the Ice Jade Scorpion King, which could not possibly possess such a subtle and pervasive power.

Huo Yuhao's fifth spirit ring was naturally thanks to the divine spirit ring, but Huo Yuhao did not intend to reveal this matter at the moment, and only showed a mysterious smile.

"Hehe, teacher, Elder Xuan, my speed is still a little slower than Brother Caitou's. I'm level 55, what do you think?"

Huo Yuhao released his soul power fluctuations without reservation in front of everyone, and all the Super Douluo present could feel that it was real.

But it was precisely because of this that they couldn't believe Huo Yuhao's cultivation had improved so quickly. Huo Yuhao's cultivation was incredibly solid, even more solid than that of ordinary soul masters who suppressed their level while building a foundation.

This is normal. The power of the Ice and Snow Emperors' origin, plus the power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, two million-year soul rings, are constantly nourishing Huo Yuhao's body. No matter how much Huo Yuhao struggles, he can't possibly make himself weak and unstable.

If it weren't for the special limitation that the divinely bestowed soul ring could only increase one level after absorption, regardless of the age, Huo Yuhao's strength would definitely not be as simple as level fifty-five.

Xian Lin'er chuckled and said, "Yuhao, I think you're almost old enough to be the academy's mascot."

Why?

"Little monster! You are the student I've ever met who best embodies the word 'monster'."

After the meal, the sound of the door opening in the next private room could be heard.

The group exchanged glances, not in a hurry. Since they needed to be wary of Jing Hongchen, that old man who was two-faced, they had to make some necessary preparations. In addition to the three Super Douluo and Elder Xuan, Qian Duoduo's mother-in-law and Huo Yuhao's grandmaster's grandmother, Elder Song, also came.

This time, he was in charge of bringing the other eight exchange students back to the academy safely. With such a veteran Super Douluo from level 97 in charge, no one would be worried.

Old Master Xuan's chopsticks hadn't stopped; he ate whichever dish he saw, and also filled his soup gourd with soup.

Ever since Elder Xuan stopped drinking when he took Huo Yuhao to hunt souls in the Star Dou Forest last time, Elder Mu waved his hand and told Elder Xuan to maintain this fine tradition: before going out on a mission, he should hand over the wine gourd and take the vegetable soup gourd with him.

After the mission is completed, we'll exchange the soup gourd for his old man's wine gourd.
