Chapter 14: Getting Rich
"Junior Brother, your Senior Brother has also prepared a gift for you."
Yan Shaozhe, who was standing by, also smiled and handed a bracelet to Huo Yuhao.
"Thank you, Senior Brother!"
"Hmm, Yuhao, you are still a first-year student in the Outer Court, so you should continue to live and study there for now. However, Sea God Lake is open to you, and you can also enter Sea Gods Pavilion, where a room will be prepared for you."
"You are only eleven years old now, so don't put too much pressure on yourself to Cultivate. Make more friends in the Outer Court. If you have any trouble, just find your Senior Brother; your Senior Brother still has the final say in the Outer Court."
"Understood, Teacher."
"Good, go. Remember to come to Sea Gods Pavilion to chat with this old man every Saturday afternoon."
Only Yan Shaozhe and Mu En were left in the room.
Yan Shaozhe smiled and said, "Congratulations, Teacher, for taking in such a talented Disciple."
Mu En chuckled twice.
"You still have the nerve to say that? I was already paying attention to Yuhao, but you didn't manage Xiaotao well! You almost cost Yuhao his life!"
Yan Shaozhe remained silent.
Ma Xiaotao was his only Disciple, and he truly devoted all his energy to her, protecting her in everything.
"This time, it was a blessing in disguise. Yuhao's Spiritual Domain has the effect of calming the mind and dispelling distracting thoughts. For him to have such an effect with only fifteen levels of Soul Power, I estimate that when Yuhao reaches thirty levels of Soul Power, with the effect of his Spiritual Domain, and my intervention, we might be able to eradicate Xiaotao's evil fire!"
"Really? That's wonderful!"
Yan Shaozhe was overjoyed.
He originally thought that Huo Yuhao's Domain being able to calm Ma Xiaotao's evil fire when it got out of control would be good enough; he never expected such a surprise!
"The profundities of the Body Martial Soul are truly incredible! I've read through ancient texts, and it's said that Tang San's ancestor, from the first generation of Shrek's Seven Monsters, had an aunt, Tang Yuehua, whose Martial Soul underwent an Innate mutation, granting her a talent Domain, but she was unable to Breakthrough to rank nine her entire life. This shows that Yuhao's Body Martial Soul is also mutated, but it's a beneficial mutation."
"Yuhao's Martial Soul consists of his eyes and brain, making it a top-tier Body Martial Soul with a beneficial mutated talent Domain, a first Soul skills that can be called a Divine Skill, and an unprecedented Comprehension Ability. A one-ring Soul Master can create his own Soul skills; this is the future bestowed upon our Shrek by the heavens!"
"I couldn't be clearer about the power of the Body Martial Soul."
"Shaozhe, regarding Huo Yuhao becoming my Disciple, just inform Lin'er, Mei'er, Duoduo, and the several elders in Sea Gods Pavilion. Strictly seal Huo Yuhao's information, and you must allocate resources from the Outer Court to him. Also, find a Dao Protector to protect him, understand?"
"This Disciple understands!"
...Stepping out of Sea Gods Pavilion, even though Huo Yuhao tried his best to restrain himself, he couldn't help but check the gifts given by Mu En and Yan Shaozhe.
Both the ring and the bracelet were storage spirit tools.
But the ring was clearly much more precious than the bracelet; just the faint, gentle glow emanating from the yellow gem on it exuded luxury.
The bracelet was merely intricately sprinkled with a dozen or so colorful gems.
He infused his Soul Power into them.
First, the bracelet.
The bracelet consisted of sixteen spaces, each ten cubic meters.
Each gem inlaid on the bracelet corresponded to one space.
In one of the spaces, there were over a dozen jade bottles of various colors.
The jade bottles were also meticulously labeled and annotated.
"Shrek is truly rich!"
Huo Yuhao thought to himself.
These were all Medicinal Pills, including five bottles of Mysterious Water Pill and one bottle of soul ascension pill.
These six bottles each contained one pill.
But there were also ten bottles of Soul Nourishing Pills, with thirty pills per bottle, enough for ten months if one was taken daily.
The Mysterious Water Pill, needless to say, had the effect of cleansing the meridians and purifying the marrow, but the first pill had the best effect, which then decreased successively. It was estimated that by the fifth pill, the effect would be almost zero.
The soul ascension pill could increase Soul Power, with an effect equivalent to a Soul Master's Soul Power increase from rank thirty to rank thirty-one.
For Huo Yuhao, it could probably increase his rank by three.
Judging from this, his Soul Power cultivation would reach rank twenty in less than a month!
The Soul Nourishing Pills were essentially supplements; taking one daily would nourish the body and improve physical fitness.
"Huh? Are these things also called Medicinal Pills?"
Electrolux's curious voice rang in Huo Yuhao's ears.
"As you can see, these are already rare Medicinal Pills on the Douluo Continent."
Electrolux fell silent.
"Yuhao, do you want to learn Alchemy?"
"Yes, of course, I do!"
"Alright, once you reach rank thirty Soul Power, I will begin to teach you how to perform Alchemy, Artifact Refining, and array formations. In short, I will impart all my lifelong knowledge to you, so you must study hard!"
"Yes!"
Electrolux didn't speak further, but Huo Yuhao could feel his mumbling in his sea of consciousness.
Such as casually rolling Materials into pills, or how two slaps would refine them better than this, or what a waste of heavenly Materials, and so on.
Huo Yuhao smiled.
He planned to return to his dormitory and take the Mysterious Water Pill next.
Then, there was the yellow gem ring given by Mu En.
The ring contained a space of over a hundred cubic meters, filled with many miscellaneous items.
Clearly, Mu En genuinely understood Huo Yuhao's current situation.
Inside the ring, there were not only over a million gold coins but also several black gold cards, the amount of money on which was unknown.
Mu En's action was like a grandfather who knew his grandchild had no money, waving his hand and giving some pocket money for the child to spend.
Besides money, the ring also contained a red card with the Treasure Gathering Pavilion logo, and next to the card was a note.
(Five million free credit annually, plus the ability to take one favorite treasure, regardless of value.)
This treatment was much better than in the original story.
Thinking this, Huo Yuhao was about to return to his dormitory to start taking the Medicinal Pills.
However, when he reached the shore of Sea God Lake, Huo Yuhao fell silent.
How was he going to get back? Ma Xiaotao had taken him for most of the afternoon, and he recognized the way to Sea God Lake, but returning to the Outer Court required crossing Sea God Lake.
How could he, a rank fifteen Soul Master who currently only possessed the Spiritual attribute, cross the lake to get back?
Swim back?
That would be too embarrassing!
Generally, students entering the Inner Court were at least Soul Sects and could cross the lake on their own.
He would wait and see if a teacher would pass by and take him back to the Outer Court. Of course, if no one came, he would have to go back to Sea Gods Pavilion to find Mu En and Yan Shaozhe.
On the grass by Sea God Lake, Huo Yuhao sat down, pondering the control of his Spiritual Power while also keeping an eye out for any passing teachers... Zhang Lexuan recalled what she had seen during her monitoring mission, her thoughts churning, even crossing the lake distractedly.
These Evil Soul Masters truly disregarded life and were utterly cruel!
The Evil Soul Master Soul Emperor she had personally killed this time actually Cultivated by eating the hearts of girls under nine years old. For five whole years, he hadn't been discovered, and the cave where he hid was filled with skeletons!
What was the Dou Spirit Empire's intelligence System doing?!
As her toes touched the shore, Zhang Lexuan looked at the grass a few meters away.
