Douluo Continent: The Rebirth of Huo Yuhao

Chapter 4: First Glimpse of Talent

"Is this your soul skill?"

The old man stared intently at Huo Yuhao, as if he could only believe it was true after confirming Huo Yuhao's own words.

"Yes, Grandpa. This is my first soul skill, Spirit Detection Sharing. My martial soul is my eyes, a mutated martial soul."

Huo Yuhao offered a polite explanation. He could imagine that his martial soul might be valued in the Sun Moon Empire, which placed great importance on the research of soul tools. However, he was still taken aback by the old man's extremely nervous demeanor.

"Shared mental detection? Martial Soul is eyes?" The old man murmured a few words after receiving an affirmative answer.

"Wait here for a moment! Don't go anywhere, I'll go in and inform them."

The old man instructed Huo Yuhao to wait. Perhaps feeling that simply asking him to wait seemed somewhat disrespectful, he added a further, more emphatically:

"Perhaps you will become the most valued student of this year's Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy!"

After saying this, the old man quickly left.

……

"Yuhao, perhaps you really can receive training here comparable to Shrek Academy." The voice of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm echoed in Huo Yuhao's mind. It sensed the extremely intense emotional fluctuations of the human from before. The value of Huo Yuhao's martial soul, and the level of importance it received in the Sun Moon Empire, was beyond its imagination as a soul beast.

This was something that Huo Yuhao, a native of the Three Kingdoms period in the original Douluo Continent, seriously underestimated!

"Perhaps more than that." Huo Yuhao was slightly stunned when he saw the old man's shock at his martial soul and soul skills. He knew that those legendary powerhouses who came from Shrek Academy in the history of the continent were legends in themselves.

Even without Shrek Academy, their achievements would not have been any less impressive. It's just that they were overshadowed by the aura of Shrek, so their own glory not only brought them honor but also enhanced the reputation of Shrek Academy.

Someone like me, with no special characteristics, has absolutely no chance of standing out from Shrek Academy.

Perhaps I'll gain a little weight after awakening my second spirit? But it will never be as important as the Sun Moon Royal Spirit Master Academy.

Huo Yuhao had a premonition that his revenge plan would officially begin today!

……

Just as Huo Yuhao and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm were still immersed in the shock brought by the old man's sudden attention, he had already brought another old man dressed in a magnificent black robe with gold patterns to arrive quickly. In the blink of an eye, the old man in the magnificent robe had arrived in front of Huo Yuhao.

"So you're the boy with the Martial Soul Eye?" The old man in the magnificent robe went straight to the point.

"Yes." Huo Yuhao, having regained his senses, answered the question posed by the elderly man in the magnificent robe.

"Show me your soul skill," the elderly man in the magnificent robe said in a very gentle tone after receiving an affirmative answer.

Huo Yuhao knew this was inevitable and was already mentally prepared. A pale golden light shone in Huo Yuhao's deep blue eyes.

A white spirit ring slowly rose from beneath his feet.

Mental detection, mental sharing! Two soul skills are released simultaneously.

Every detail of the nearby objects instantly appeared in the mind of the elderly man in the magnificent robe.

Although the elderly man in the magnificent robe had already heard the report from the testers, he was still inevitably shocked by Huo Yuhao's soul skill.

"Heaven blesses the Sun and Moon! Truly, heaven blesses the Sun and Moon! To grant our Sun and Moon Empire such a talent! Huo Yuhao, I am Jing Hongchen. You have passed today's entrance examination. Congratulations, you are now officially a student of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy!"

"Jing Hongchen?" Huo Yuhao was quite surprised. From the information he had gathered, this old man named Jing Hongchen was the dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. A very high-ranking figure in the Sun Moon Empire!

No further tests were conducted; Huo Yuhao's status as a student was decided with just one sentence. This is truly befitting of the Dean of Mirror Dust Academy!

I never expected that simply demonstrating my soul skill once would attract such a person to come and check on my situation.

"Thank you, Dean Jing Hongchen, but I want to be frank with you about something." Huo Yuhao decided to tell Jing Hongchen about his identity as a citizen of the Star Luo Empire, given the ongoing border tensions between the two countries. If he didn't tell her now, it would be troublesome if it were discovered later.

"What is it?" Jing Hongchen was slightly curious about what Huo Yuhao wanted to tell her.

"Actually, I am not from the Sun Moon Empire. I was originally from the Star Luo Empire. I was being hunted down by my enemies and fled all the way to the Sun Moon Empire." Huo Yuhao concealed the fact that he came from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, which was at odds with the Sun Moon Empire, and fabricated a similar reason.

"It's alright, Yuhao. Now that you've passed the examination of my Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, you are naturally a part of my Sun Moon Empire. We don't care about background here; as long as you have no ill will towards the Empire and sincerely want to join us, we will welcome you wholeheartedly."

"And now that you're here, you don't need to worry about your enemies anymore. Anyone who wants to harm a student of my Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy will have to deal with me, a ninth-level Soul Master, first. You just need to focus on your studies here, and once you've grown stronger, you can take your revenge yourself. The academy will also provide some assistance." Jing Hongchen comforted Huo Yuhao, expressing his high regard for him.

As for whether they will secretly investigate Huo Yuhao, no one knows.

"Thank you, Dean Jing Hongchen!" Huo Yuhao said, moved.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

It seems that ever since I absorbed Brother Tianmeng's Wisdom Soul Ring and that gray bead possessed me, everyone I've met has been very kind to me.

If he hadn't left the White Tiger Duke's mansion back then, he might still be a lowly servant at the bottom of the household, looked down upon by everyone, even though he was the son of that incredibly powerful person, receiving absolutely no care whatsoever!

……

Outside a dormitory, a maid stood before Huo Yuhao, holding a silver tray with a school uniform, a manual, a map, and a key on it.

"Huo Yuhao, this is your assigned dormitory. Here are your school uniform, student handbook, and a map of the academy. Congratulations again on becoming a student of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy."

The maid introduced the various items to Huo Yuhao, and when she mentioned the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, a hint of pride appeared on her face. Many of the Sun Moon Empire's advanced soul tools originated from here, and it was indeed a source of pride for the people of the Sun Moon Empire.

"Please rest well. If you need anything, please feel free to contact me. I'll take my leave now." The maid finished introducing Huo Yuhao and then left.

"Yuhao, you have now officially joined the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Judging from the dean's performance, you will truly receive important training here!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm communicated with Huo Yuhao in the sea of ​​consciousness.

"Yes, Brother Tianmeng, I can hardly believe it myself. Although with your help, I will definitely become a strong person, with the training from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, the time it will take me to take revenge will be greatly shortened!" Huo Yuhao said with a determined look in his eyes.
