Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 11 Shrek is a hypocrite
At this moment, many students in Class 3 of Grade 1 had already begun to whisper among themselves.

"He's so handsome, especially his eyes, they look like they hold a galaxy."

"Exactly, and he has such a great presence. I think the head of the teaching department personally brought him here. It's past the enrollment period, but he was able to be an exception and become a transfer student. Not only is he handsome, but he also seems to have a very important background."

What should I do if I'm starting to like him?

"Imperial law warns you, sisters!"

"."

Compared to girls who are infatuated, many boys are dismissive.

"Tch, what's the use of being handsome? He's just a pretty boy."

"This boy's looks are no less than mine; he must not be allowed to live."

"You'd actually go to such lengths as transferring to another class just to be in my class, Haki-ho, you bastard!"

Huo Yuhao listened to the noisy sounds below, his lips twitched, and he judged it to be a group of chuunibyou teenagers and a few little devils. It seemed that his future school life would be much simpler.

"Hello everyone, my name is Huo Yuhao, I am eleven years old, my spirit is the spirit eye, and my spirit power is level 15. I have never used a spirit tool before. I hope to get along well with everyone and make progress together in the future."

Unexpectedly, after so many years, he was able to give another self-introduction.

Amidst the cheers of the many students, Huo Yuhao arrived at his seat. Shi Xuan had originally wanted to seat Huo Yuhao in the front, but he refused and chose a seat by the window in the back, where it was quiet and he wouldn't be stared at by so many eyes all the time.

Shi Xuan quickly began his lesson. Huo Yuhao thought he would fall behind, but when he looked at the easy-to-understand knowledge on the soul guidance screen in front of him, he realized that he had been worrying too much.

After all, it's only been a little over a month since the start of the semester, and the students are still in their first year. How fast can the teaching pace be?

This also made him realize that not all people of the Sun Moon Empire are born with access to systematic and comprehensive soul guidance knowledge.

In order to maintain a consistent pace and accommodate the majority of students, the academy naturally teaches all students according to the introductory knowledge of Soul Masters, regardless of their Soul Master level upon enrollment.

If some students are exceptionally talented, entering the school as Level 2 or Level 3 Soul Masters, and have a solid foundation in basic knowledge, then they will be exceptionally allowed to advance to a higher grade for further study.

For example, what Huo Yuhao just learned from the conversations of the students in the cafeteria was about the siblings Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen from the Hongchen family.

These two were already Level 3 Soul Masters when they enrolled, and now, at the age of thirteen or fourteen, they have already become Level 4 Soul Masters, only one step away from becoming Level 5 Soul Masters. They are hailed as Soul Master geniuses that the Sun Moon Empire sees only once in a thousand years. Once they become Level 5 Soul Masters, they can easily enter the Mingde Hall to study.

Moreover, the two siblings are now the most dazzling twin stars in the teaching department, absolute geniuses among soul masters. One is a level 47 offensive soul master with the three-legged golden toad as her martial soul, and the other is a level 46 control soul master with the Zhu Qing Ice Toad as her martial soul, which possesses both ice and poison attributes.

With such talent, even in Shrek Academy, he would definitely be one of the best.

As for taking drugs, oh, you Shrek students take Xuan Shui Dan and Sheng Hun Dan to solidify your foundation and improve your aptitude, while I, Sun Moon students, take pills to force growth and make my foundation unstable?
I, Huo Gua, ate three pills in a row, and I didn't see any instability in my foundation. My fighting power is incredibly strong. You hypocrite!
he~tui!

"Huo Yuhao, you answer the next question."

Hearing Teacher Shi Xuan call him, Huo Yuhao slowly got up and waited for the question.

"Yuhao, your teacher knows you've never used a soul tool before. That's why I want to know, Yuhao, what do you think the future world will belong to soul masters or soul masters?" All eyes were on Huo Yuhao. They could tell that Huo Yuhao wasn't a native of the Sun Moon Empire. After all, their teacher had said that Huo Yuhao had never used a soul tool before, which was unbelievable in the Sun Moon Empire where soul tool technology was the mainstream.

Huo Yuhao didn't answer immediately; he thought for a moment before giving his answer.

"Teacher, I don't know what the world will be like in the future, but I think that as soul guidance technology continues to develop, the technology will continue to benefit the people at the bottom. If one day, soul guidance devices can get rid of the constraint of having to use soul power as an energy source, then I think that can be called the world of soul guidance devices."

As he spoke, he didn't forget to express his views on Soul Masters.

"In my opinion, the reason why Soul Masters become stronger, and even Soul Masters want to create more powerful Soul Tools, is that they cannot escape the constraints of their Soul Power level. And the two have one thing in common, which is Soul Rings. To obtain Soul Rings, one must hunt Soul Beasts."

"The more Soul Masters there are, the more Soul Instructors there will be, which means fewer Soul Beasts. The contradiction between the two is almost irreconcilable. However, as one increases while the other decreases, the reduction of Soul Beasts will inevitably restrict the development of Soul Masters and even Soul Instructors. One day, Soul Beasts will gradually have no space to survive. At that time, what difference will there be between Soul Masters and Soul Instructors?"

These words caused everyone to look at each other in disbelief. They had never imagined that the difference between a Soul Master and a Soul Instructor could be related to Soul Beasts.

But isn't this a bit too pessimistic?

After all, there are many soul beasts on the continent. How long would it take to hunt them down to near extinction?

If Huo Yuhao knew what everyone was thinking, he would definitely give an exact time without hesitation, which is ten thousand years.

However, he also noticed the expressions on everyone's faces in the classroom and added.

"Of course, this is only the most pessimistic conclusion. With the development of the times, there will be a day when we can find an energy source that can replace soul power. At that time, soul masters will definitely have a better future than soul masters."

If we compare Soul Masters to the privileged class of the world, then the Soul Tools they research are, frankly, capable and able to benefit the common people. The former do not engage in any production, while the latter can continuously drive the world forward through a series of reforms.

After replacing Huo Gua, Huo Yuhao himself had wondered if he was born out of the will of this era, or rather, the Douluo Star plane, in order to resist and promote the development of soul tools.

After all, it was all too coincidental. The most suitable spiritual attribute mutated spirit spirit eye for researching soul tools, the only million-year spiritual attribute Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and the soul fragment of Electrolux that broke through the space-time barrier.
They've practically handed you all the opportunities; it's not impossible.

Shi Xuan watched Huo Yuhao speak eloquently and then fall into deep thought, and quietly wrote several lines of large characters on a piece of paper on the lectern: "His wisdom far surpasses that of his peers, he has a clear self-awareness, and his overall perspective is remarkable."

After a long while, when everyone in the classroom came to their senses, Shi Xuan waved his hand, signaling Huo Yuhao to sit down.

"A very novel explanation, Yuhao. Even if you don't choose to become a Soul Master or Soul Instructor, you can still become a good strategist in the future."

"Thank you for the compliment, teacher." Huo Yuhao nodded calmly.

Ultimately, this is still a world of the strong. Although the Sun Moon Empire has advanced soul guidance technology, it cannot escape the constraints of the times and is essentially still a feudal aristocratic system.

In a world like this, if one doesn't attribute great power to oneself, what's the point of playing military strategy and tactics? He's not the Orange God of War.

Furthermore, if he later harbors the ambition to unify the continent, the three books, "On War," "On Sea Power," and "On Air Power," would be sufficient to subdue the lower and middle-level forces. Given the level of warfare in the original Douluo Three Kingdoms, he wouldn't even need to resort to "The Art of War," as it would be too intellectually taxing for them.

P.S.: Does the game use military strategy? It only talks about war, and it seems like it's all about bombardment and then sweeping through, right?
