Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, have a Beast Taming Space

Chapter 40 Advancement to a Millennium, Combat Power Soars

He thought to himself, "No wonder I run into such a stunning beauty on the street. It turns out she's Ling Luochen. That makes no difference."

"I am Huo Yuhao, a first-year student in the Foreign Languages ​​Department."

Huo Yuhao responded politely.

"I have long admired Senior Ling's name."

Ling Luochen sized up Huo Yuhao, a hint of surprise flashing in his clear, cold eyes: "I've heard of you, the champion of the freshman assessment, the Huo Yuhao who defeated Dai Huabin's team."

Huo Yuhao smiled modestly: "Just lucky."

"No need to be overly modest."

Ling Luochen said with a smile.

"It's not luck that allows one person to defeat the Netherworld White Tiger."

The two walked side by side on the streets of Shrek City, and Ling Luochen, unusually, took the initiative to start a conversation: "Did you just come back from outside?"

"Yes, they went to acquire their second spirit ring."

Huo Yuhao answered truthfully.

Ling Luochen nodded, his gaze lingering on Huo Yuhao for a moment: "Your aura seems somewhat special."

Huo Yuhao felt a slight stirring in his heart, knowing that after obtaining the Ice Emperor, the Ice Emperor had given him half of her power.

The power of extreme ice?

No wonder.

"It's probably because of my new tamed beast."

Huo Yuhao explained casually.

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Ling Luochen's eyes: "A new beast taming? Your martial soul can summon multiple soul beasts?"

Huo Yuhao nodded: "Yes, my Beast Taming Space gains one more beast for every soul ring I acquire. This trip to the far north is to find a suitable second beast."

"The far north..."

Ling Luochen seemed to be deep in thought.

"So, your second tamed beast is an ice-attribute soul beast?"

"Yes."

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly.

"It's an Ice Jade Scorpion."

"Ice Jade Scorpion?!"

Ling Luochen's voice was clearly filled with shock.

“That’s a top-tier soul beast from the far north! No wonder… no wonder I felt such a strong attraction to you.”

She finally understood where that inexplicable sense of attraction came from.

As an ice-attribute soul master, she is exceptionally sensitive to the aura of extreme ice. Huo Yuhao's second tamed beast is the Ice Jade Scorpion, which explains everything.

"Ultimate Ice..."

Ling Luochen murmured to himself, his gaze towards Huo Yuhao now filled with a burning intensity.

"Your martial spirit is truly enviable."

The two strolled along the streets of Shrek City, and Ling Luochen, unusually talkative, became quite so.

She introduced Huo Yuhao to the inner courtyard, shared her cultivation experiences, and even broke her usual practice by telling him some interesting stories about the inner courtyard.

Huo Yuhao was also happy to communicate with this senior student from the Inner Court.

……

"I never imagined that beast-taming martial souls had such potential."

Ling Luochen sighed.

"It seems the academy's high regard for you was justified."

As the sun set, its golden rays bathed the two of them.

They had unknowingly spent the entire afternoon strolling from Shrek City's commercial district to the quiet alleys near the college.

"It's getting late."

Ling Luochen stopped, her voice tinged with reluctance.

"I am really happy today."

Huo Yuhao smiled.

"I'm very happy to be able to go shopping with Senior Ling."

A smile flickered in Ling Luochen's eyes as she took out an ice-blue jade pendant from her robes and handed it to Huo Yuhao. "This is for you. If you ever want to come to the inner courtyard to find me, you can use this pendant for free passage. By the way, it's also a storage soul tool." Huo Yuhao took the pendant; it was cool to the touch and intricately carved with snowflake patterns. He carefully put it away, saying, "Thank you, Senior Ling."

"Just call me Luo Chen."

Ling Luochen said softly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Looking forward to seeing you in the inner courtyard."

After saying that, she turned and left, her red college uniform drawing a graceful arc in the setting sun before quickly disappearing around the street corner.

Huo Yuhao stood still, holding the cold jade pendant in his hand.

This senior student from the inner academy, known for her aloofness, doesn't seem as unapproachable as the rumors suggest.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm chuckled in the Sea of ​​Spirit: "Yuhao, it seems this ice queen is quite special to you~ Her face was even red just now!"

Hyotei's voice also carried a hint of amusement: "Human emotions are truly fascinating. However, this woman's ice attribute talent is indeed remarkable. If she has the opportunity to elevate her attribute in the future, her achievements will be extraordinary."

Huo Yuhao shook his head and carefully put the jade pendant away.

"Time to go back to the dorm."

"Wang Dong probably hasn't come back yet."

During the last few days of his holiday, Huo Yuhao focused on his cultivation.

Finally, two days before the end of the holiday, he felt his soul power surging within him and successfully broke through to level 28!
"Finally reached level 28!"

Excitement flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes.

With his breakthrough, Jinliu and Bingdi in the Beast Taming Space simultaneously sensed the change.

His cultivation period instantly broke through the thousand-year mark!

Jinliu excitedly pounded its chest in the beast-taming space, its dark golden fur shimmering with a metallic luster.

The Thousand-Year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is capable of tearing apart a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast with its bare hands; its strength is at least comparable to a five-ring Soul King!
Hyotei's transformation was even more astonishing.

As the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, her mastery of extreme ice is already unparalleled.

Now that she has surpassed a thousand years, her strength has increased dramatically.

In terms of mastery over extreme ice, aside from the Snow Emperor, probably no one on the entire continent can rival her.

Her four powerful soul skills have given her an astonishing level of prowess in both offense and defense, as well as in control.

"This feeling...is really nice."

Hyotei felt the surging power within them in the Sea of ​​Spirit.

Huo Yuhao also obtained the power of ultimate ice through the feedback from the Ice Emperor.

Although he only possesses half the power of Hyotei and his mastery of the technique is far inferior, under Hyotei's personal guidance, his control over the ultimate ice is rapidly improving.

"Now, apart from not being able to fly and lacking medical skills, I basically have no obvious weaknesses."

Huo Yuhao felt the power within him and was full of confidence.

Jinliu offers ultimate attack power, while Bingdi is the perfect combination of control and strong offense.

With the blessing of two thousand-year-old tamed beasts, Huo Yuhao's strength underwent a qualitative leap.

His own strength is no less than that of either of them.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm tumbled excitedly in its Sea of ​​Spirit: "Fantastic! Yuhao, you can now even fight against Soul Kings and Soul Emperors!"

Ice Emperor's voice carried a hint of arrogance: "What Soul King? With me here, even a Soul King is no match for me."

Huo Yuhao got up from the bed.

"Okay, okay, let's go for a walk."

I've been meditating in meditation all day, and my legs are a little sore.

As soon as Huo Yuhao stepped out of the dormitory building, he saw Mu En downstairs.

He raised his eyebrows.

He walked over naturally, took out a rocking chair from his storage soul tool, and sat down on it without a second thought.

"Grandpa, you're here so early. School hasn't even started yet."

Moon smiled slightly.

"Didn't you come?"

Huo Yuhao's lips twitched.

"So you were waiting for me all this time, huh?"

Mu En did not answer, but instead looked at Huo Yuhao.

"Little guy, your soul power is improving pretty fast. Ultimate Ice, which of the three great kings of the far north is your second tamed beast? Titan Snow Demon King? No, you can't reach that level. So it'll be Ice Jade Scorpion. After all, the Snow Maiden is not someone you can handle."
