Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 90 (Daily Ten Thousand) - Rich and Powerful

A freshman who had just finished his registration assessment asked the senior student who had greeted Huo Yuhao earlier and was called Brother Tie Niu, "Senior, who was that senior just now? What do you mean by him enrolling as well? Is he returning to school?"

The third-year senior, whom Huo Yuhao called Brother Tie Niu, laughed and said, "That's right, it's not an exaggeration to call him your senior. After all, he was a big star in our school two years ago. It's just that he only just reached the age for enrollment this year. Who knows, you might end up in the same class as him. Even before he enrolled, he was already a legendary figure in our school."

He led the two through the east gate into the academy with practiced ease, introduced the ten granite statues placed along the road, and soon the group arrived at the shore of Poseidon Lake.

Poseidon Lake is indeed very large. The group walked south along the lakeside path for nearly fifteen minutes before turning west. After another fifteen minutes, the path began to narrow, and a wide rectangular square came into view, with a Shrek Square sign next to it.

Behind Shrek Square stood rows of tall school buildings, each a different color, primarily white, yellow, purple, and black. Looking further north from Shrek Square, one could see a cluster of gray school buildings.

After explaining to Ning Tian and Wu Feng the different functions represented by the different colored teaching buildings, the group headed straight for the white freshman teaching building. The freshman teaching building was already bustling with activity, as some freshmen who had passed the assessment were registering and reporting for duty.

They lined up obediently to pay the enrollment fee and receive their enrollment-related items. While they were queuing, Huo Yuhao maliciously shared with the two of them the best places to eat, drink, and have fun in Shrek City.

What bad intentions could Huo Yuhao possibly have? He just wanted to give Ning Ge, who spent all his time holed up in the repair shop, a workout.

Ning Tian's eyes lit up as she listened to Huo Yuhao's sharing, and a hint of interest flashed in Wu Feng's eyes as well. She was a girl too, how could she not like going out to play?

"After you register and get ready in the dorm later, I'll take you to Brother Ning's repair shop. He can show you around. It would be a shame if you didn't let Brother Ning show you around more after you left the sect."

Huo Yuhao spoke of the travel guide with a look of concern for Ning Tian, ​​who nodded repeatedly. Only Wu Feng felt that Huo Yuhao's words seemed to be for Ning Ge, not for Ning Tian, ​​but he had no evidence.

Just as Huo Yuhao was getting into a lively discussion with the two, a line also formed behind him. He caught a glimpse of people standing behind him out of the corner of his eye, and Huo Yuhao chuckled to himself.

What was that saying again?

The most pleasing thing about queuing isn't necessarily that the number of people in front of you is decreasing, but rather that the number of people behind you is increasing.

Turning his head to look back, Huo Yuhao was momentarily stunned.

Behind her stood a young man with delicate features, fair skin, and a pair of unusual large eyes that were a pale pinkish-blue. His neat short hair was also the same color, and his handsome appearance seemed to surpass even Beibei's.

This is tough. It seems like there are a lot of skilled players at Shrek Academy this year.

A thought flashed through Huo Yuhao's mind.

Unlike the uniform appearance of ordinary people like Ashina, the appearances of rare and powerful enemies are all unique. During his two years at Shrek Academy, Huo Yuhao also summarized some patterns that were not exactly regular.

Soul Masters who are not good-looking are not necessarily weak, but Soul Masters who are handsome or beautiful are almost always very strong or talented.

Huo Yuhao didn't know if this logic would work, but he was certain that it wouldn't work in Ashina.

After all, at least half of the rare and powerful individuals in Ashina don't even need to make any expressions; just their faces alone are enough to scare countless children to tears.

After obediently queuing up to receive their dormitory keys, two sets of school uniforms, and a white freshman badge, Huo Yuhao led Ning Tian and Wu Feng out of the freshman teaching building.

The registration fee for Shrek Academy wasn't much for Huo Yuhao, who was now quite wealthy, but it still made him, who was used to being frugal, feel a little pain in his wallet.

The tuition for one academic year was a whopping ten gold soul coins, not even including food expenses, which made Huo Yuhao mutter to himself.

It's worth mentioning that although Huo Yuhao, Ning Tian, ​​and Wu Feng enrolled together, the academy didn't seem to assign classes according to their enrollment dates. Huo Yuhao was in the first freshman class, while Ning Tian and Wu Feng were assigned to a different class.

Huo Yuhao glanced at the notice board not far away and a smile appeared on his lips.

Ning Tian and Wu Feng followed Huo Yuhao's gaze and saw a few lines of small characters written on it.

Wang Yan is the homeroom teacher of Class 1, Freshmen.

Class 2 of New Students

The homeroom teacher of Class 9, freshmen, is Mu Jin.

"It's actually Teacher Wang?"

Huo Yuhao smiled; now he could truly say he had a teacher-student relationship with Teacher Wang.

"Yuhao, what do you think of Teacher Mujin? You're practically a local here, could you introduce her to us?"

Ning Tian looked at his homeroom teacher, who was named Mu Jin, and couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"Teacher Muji."

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and replied, "Teacher Mu Jin is a very nice person, so you can rest assured. She even brought her younger brother to my house for a visit a while ago and brought a lot of things."

"By the way, let me tell you a little secret. If nothing unexpected happens, you should be the first in the entire freshman class nine to know about this."

"What secret? Tell me quickly!"

Ning Tian's eyes revealed a gossipy look.

"This story goes back a long time, but to put it simply, Teacher Mujin was in a very good mood and prepared a soul bone as a reward for the best team in her freshman class this year. If you and Miss Wufeng work hard, you might be able to get your hands on this soul bone."

"Wow? Are all the teachers at Shrek Academy this rich?"

Now, not only Wu Feng was confused, but even Ning Tian was bewildered. You must know that even in the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, soul bones are extremely precious treasures.

And now Huo Yuhao actually said that a teacher at Shrek Academy was going to offer a soul bone as a reward for the best team in the class.

No, Shrek Academy is incredibly wealthy, but there's a limit to how extravagant you are. Ning Tian thinks using soul bones as rewards for the grade-level competition is still within an acceptable range.

But isn't it a bit too extravagant to use this as a class reward?
