Douluo: Huo Yuhao Returns from Devouring the Stars

Three months later.

This was the fourth month that Huo Yuhao entered the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

Second-level soul instructor qualification examination classroom.

Yu Yu, who was silently watching Huo Yuhao as Jing Hongchen's subordinate, stood on the podium, staring warily at Xuan Ziwen, who had specially run from Mingde Hall to watch Huo Yuhao take the second-level soul engineer certificate test, wondering what his intentions were.

"Teacher Yu, are you sure that Huo Yuhao has only been enrolled for four months and hasn't previously learned anything about soul guide manufacturing?"

Xuan Ziwen rubbed his hands together, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Huo Yuhao was like a hungry man who had been single for forty years seeing a peerless beauty flirting with him, with an unconcealable passion and love in his eyes.

"Of course, I was the invigilator when he took the entrance exam. The way he held the carving knife was as unfamiliar and unfamiliar as a child just learning to hold chopsticks."

Yu Yu had no intention of hiding anything from Xuan Ziwen, so he continued, "After he enrolled, I became his homeroom teacher. At first, his understanding of soul guides was very superficial, but soon, his understanding and knowledge of soul guides reached an extremely high level. Conservatively speaking, he can now at least pass the third-level soul guide theoretical knowledge written test."

"In short, he is excellent in every aspect. He is the only super soul mentor genius I have ever seen in my life!"

After Xuan Ziwen confirmed that Yu Yu hadn't lied to him, he rubbed his hands even faster, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Huo Yuhao. "Oh? Really? That's great!"

"You're not trying to rob someone, are you?"

Yu Yu stared at Xuan Ziwen and continued, "The dean noticed him when he enrolled and personally gave him an A."

"The hall master personally rated it A-level? That means it's even more valuable. Really good..."

Yu Yu frowned and said more bluntly: "I mean, he has been reserved by the dean."

Xuan Ziwen spread his hands indifferently. "Even if it's the hall master, he has to give me some face. If we really can't reach an agreement, then I will have no choice but to introduce him to my teacher. You know, my teacher is in need of a closed disciple like this."

Yu Yu's mouth twitched, thinking to himself that you are worthy of being Xuan Ziwen. When you are doing serious soul guide research, you still have the demeanor of a master, but when you turn to being cunning, you just act like a rogue.

Xuan Ziwen's teacher is hailed as the most powerful person who is closest to the tenth-level soul mentor, comparable to the Dinghai Shenzhen of the peerless Douluo, Kong Mingde, the master of the Sun and Moon Empire's Worship Hall!

If Master Kong wants to accept Huo Yuhao as his disciple, what does the dean have to do with it?

"He passed the first-level soul engineer assessment in half a month and the second-level soul engineer assessment in three months. He carved the soul guide array flawlessly and has a solid theoretical foundation. Such a soul engineer genius still needs my teacher to teach him. If I teach him, I'm afraid his talent will be wasted."

Xuan Ziwen looked at Huo Yuhao's eye-catching skills in carving the soul guide array and couldn't help but marvel at his high talent.

"When it comes to teaching Huo Yuhao, I believe no one knows how to teach him better than me."

As soon as Xuan Ziwen finished speaking, a short and fat old man walked in from outside the door. He took Xuan Ziwen's hand off Huo Yuhao's shoulder and put his own hand on it.

The person who came was none other than Jing Hongchen, who had already reserved Huo Yuhao. He put his hand on Huo Yuhao's shoulder like a protective child, fearing that he would be abducted by Xuan Ziwen.

Xuan Ziwen's lips twitched slightly as he looked at Huo Yuhao and said, "Yuhao, as the head of Mingde Hall and the academy, the dean is already incredibly busy. Let's not trouble him. If you ask me, someone like me who is purely focused on scientific research is the most suitable person to be your mentor for further studies. What do you think?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the second-level soul guide formation that was about to be completed, not knowing whether to shake his head or nod.

One is the dean of the Imperial Royal Academy and the head of Mingde Hall, and the other is Kong Deming's beloved disciple, who is already extremely powerful...

Jing Hongchen patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder and said kindly, "Before school started, my grandson Xiao Hongchen and granddaughter Meng Hongchen noticed you and recommended you to me. That's when I started paying attention to you."

"On the day of your entrance examination, I rated you as an A-level student. This is enough to show my foresight and insight. As the head of Mingde Hall and the dean of the academy, my strength is not bad. In the future, you can also discuss and research soul guides with Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen..."

Xuan Ziwen's face darkened a little. He didn't expect that the hall master would play the emotional card and even bring out his grandchildren.

After Jing Hongchen played the emotional card and demonstrated his ability to teach Huo Yuhao, he pulled out a rare metal application form from his pocket and placed it on the table. With unparalleled arrogance, he said, "Yuhao, this is the rare metal application form. Fill in the form to find the rare metal you want. As long as it's within my ability, I'll definitely satisfy you!"

"Also, in addition to the rare metal quota that A-level students apply for, I will also allocate some rare metals from my own name for you to use..."

Hearing this, Xuanzi Wenren was dumbfounded.

Chapter 20 Soul Ascension Pill

Hearing this, Xuanzi Wenren was dumbfounded.

He certainly had the ability, the time, and the energy, but when it came to wealth, he couldn't compare to Jing Hongchen. Furthermore, he didn't have any handsome grandchildren to discuss soul guide research with Huo Yuhao...

Xuan Ziwen raised his head to look at the ceiling and rubbed his face. He wanted to try again to win over Huo Yuhao, but he couldn't think of any better conditions to attract Huo Yuhao.

"Master, Teacher Yu, I have something important to attend to, so I'll excuse myself first."

He walked to the door, then suddenly turned around and looked at Huo Yuhao. Still a little unwillingly, he said, "Yuhao, come visit me more often when you have time. You know the address!"

Huo Yuhao nodded. After carving the last bit of the soul-guiding array onto the metal block, he touched the rare metal application form that Jing Hongchen had placed on the table. "Dean, do you still keep your word?"

"Of course it counts. If you need it, I can also use these rare metals to help you make some handy weapons and equipment." Jing Hongchen said with a rosy face.

As the dean of the academy and the head of Mingde Hall, it is absolutely impossible for him to do anything that goes against his promise. Besides, Huo Yuhao is indeed worth his efforts.

Passing the second-level soul guide assessment in just three months is unprecedented in the history of the academy. With solid theoretical foundation and nearly perfect soul guide array carving skills, Huo Yuhao's future is like the rising sun in the morning, bound to be brilliant and dazzling!

Huo Yuhao picked up the pen and said, "Dean, I'm very polite."

"Write whatever you want, as long as I can get it, it's no problem!"

What kind of rare metals could a second-level soul master want...

But when Jing Hongchen looked at the application form, he couldn't help but frown, "Sky Meteorite Ink Essence, Mysterious Cold Iron, Thunder Mysterious Gold, Quenched Meteorite Steel..."

Even he was reluctant to squander these things. The little guy was really ruthless.

Huo Yuhao wrote down seven or eight rare metals before stopping.

"Dean, you just said that you could make me some handy weapons and equipment. Is that true?" Huo Yuhao asked cautiously.

"You use it to make weapons and equipment?" Jing Hongchen's brows relaxed. He thought Huo Yuhao was using it to practice carving soul guide arrays.

"Well, this is the weapon equipment diagram I designed myself. Take a look and see if it works."

Huo Yuhao took out a stack of blueprints from the soul guide storage device he had just bought a few days ago and handed it to Jing Hongchen.

"Did you design this yourself?"

Jing Hongchen read the weapon and equipment design drawings given by Huo Yuhao over and over again and was shocked.

The entire weapon encompasses many things, covering both melee and long-range combat, and there are many eye-catching designs, some of which even he had never thought of!

"Yes, I started designing this weapon after I passed the first-level soul instructor assessment. It took me more than two months to complete it."

"It's a very good weapon. There's nothing wrong with the blueprints and models. I'll go back and study it. Wait for my good news."

……

Huo Yuhao, who successfully passed the second-level soul engineer assessment, finally enjoyed the preferential treatment as an A-level soul engineer genius as he wished.

An independent and exclusive soul guide manufacturing room, and an application quota for rare metals that exceeds that of ordinary soul guides, provide him with many conveniences in the research and carving of soul guide arrays.

After practicing in Luoshan Garden for a few days, Huo Yuhao was called to Jing Hongchen's office.

After discussing the weapons and equipment that Huo Yuhao asked Jing Hongchen to make for him in the office for a long time, Jing Hongchen gave Huo Yuhao a soul-enhancing pill that could increase his soul power.

After leaving Jing Hongchen's office, Huo Yuhao couldn't wait to return to Luoshanyuan.

"After three months of deep cultivation, my soul power has reached level sixteen. After refining this soul-raising pill, my soul power will probably skyrocket to over twenty levels!"

According to Jing Hongchen, the Soul-Boosting Pill can dramatically increase the soul power of soul masters, especially those below the second ring!

Huo Yuhao picked up the Soul-Upgrading Pill, sat cross-legged in the training room, and chewed it up and swallowed it.

As soon as the pill entered his stomach, Huo Yuhao felt the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathering towards him, and then his soul power began to surge. Within a few breaths, his soul power went from level sixteen to level eighteen, and then surged to level twenty!

After his soul power surged to level 20, it continued to grow. Since he had not obtained a soul ring, Huo Yuhao did not know the exact level to which his soul power had grown. He only felt that his soul power had become much stronger.

"Is this what it feels like to take drugs? This surge in soul power is much faster than exhausting training!"

Feeling the increasingly powerful soul power in his body, Huo Yuhao finally understood why those soul masters of the Sun-Moon Empire who were not very talented liked to take drugs.

I don't have much talent, and I have to work hard for several months to improve my level. But after taking one pill, I can reach several levels in the blink of an eye!

Who doesn’t like soul speed running?

"But you still have to make good use of the pills. After taking them, you have to consolidate your soul power. Taking too much can easily lead to a lack of soul power and consume talent, making it more difficult to increase soul power in the later stages."

After taking the drugs, Huo Yuhao felt refreshed. His soul power had reached the maximum level of 20. Once he obtained the second soul ring, combined with the soul power feedback brought by the soul ring, his soul power might be able to break through to level 24 or 25 in one fell swoop!

"Huh~, under the baptism of cosmic energy, my physical fitness has greatly improved, and my mental power is also slowly growing. Everything is moving in the right direction. Whether it's soul power or genetic energy, now I just need to practice step by step."

Huo Yuhao stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the towering buildings in the core area of ​​Mingdu in the distance, and slowly exhaled.

Who could have imagined that the homeless boy who was grilling fish and eating wild vegetables outside the Star Dou Forest half a year ago would now become a legal citizen of the Sun-Moon Empire as if he were reborn?

He even entered the continent's top soul engineer academy for further studies, was rated as an A-level soul engineer genius, passed the first-level soul engineer assessment and the second-level soul engineer assessment in succession within four months, and became the object of favor of the academy dean and the head of Mingde Hall?

All this seems like a dream.

However, there is still a long way to go and much to be done.

He is facing the God King Tang, who says on the surface that he will not interfere in Douluo Continent but actually uses mechanical deification at every turn. He still needs to keep working hard.

There are still about ten days left until the end of the semester. By that time, Jing Hongchen will almost have made the weapon he wants. Once he gets the weapon and the academy is on vacation, he can ask Brother Tianmeng to take him to the Far North to activate his second martial soul.

After activating the Ice Emperor Martial Soul and becoming a true soul master and soul instructor, he will have more room to operate.

Not to mention anything else, just when the Ice Emperor appears during the soul battle, he will definitely crush his peers!

After resting for a while, Huo Yuhao devoted himself to cultivation.

For the next ten days or so, in addition to attending classes and taking the college's final exams, Huo Yuhao practiced in Luoshan Garden.

On the last day of the final exams, as soon as Huo Yuhao walked out of the examination room, he saw Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen who had been waiting for him outside the examination room for a long time.

Meng Hongchen was wearing a floral dress today, her long silver hair cascading down to her waist, her fair skin glowing dimly in the sun, her delicate collarbone and neck seemed to be meticulously carved by the Creator. She was so elegant and beautiful, like a fairy who had fallen to earth.

As for Xiao Hongchen, he is doing okay today.

"Yuhao, how was the exam?" Meng Hongchen asked with a smile, her almond-shaped eyes curved.

Chapter 21 This weapon is called the God Slayer

"Yuhao, how was the exam?" Meng Hongchen asked with a smile, her almond-shaped eyes curved.

"It's fine, it's all pretty simple. What brought you here?"

"Your weapon is ready. Grandpa asked us to bring it to you." The breeze lifted Meng Hongchen's long silver hair like a waterfall and blew up her floral skirt, showing off her perfect figure to the fullest.

Meng Hongchen took out a large and heavy weapon from the soul guide storage ring. Her delicate hands gripped the handle. The large and heavy weapon formed a sharp contrast with her graceful figure.

She was like a beautiful girl holding a giant sword, standing in the wind.

"I have to say, you really have an indescribable talent in some aspects. You can even think of a perfect combination of knives, guns, flying knives, hidden weapons, and even a serrated sword."

Xiao Hongchen, who was standing beside him with a melancholy expression, stared at the gorgeous and domineering weapon in Meng Hongchen's hand and continued in a low voice: "I admit, after learning that you passed the second-level soul mentor assessment two days ago, I was a little panicked."
