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

Chapter 23 Laughing at the Worldly Dreams, Medicinal Bath

"What did you say? Huo Yuhao didn't come to class today?"

Evening, outside the gate of the third shift.

When Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen, the brother and sister duo, heard the students' answers from Class 3, they felt as if the sky had fallen.

A boy shrugged. "Yeah, a lot of students wanted to see Huo Yuhao today, but I'm sorry, Teacher Xuan said that Huo Yuhao won't be coming to class again until this holiday."

There were some things the boy didn't say, namely that even if Huo Yuhao came to take classes here, Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen would inevitably miss him, because no one could find Huo Yuhao after each get out of class.

Many people know that Huo Yuhao likes to study in the library, but the academy's library is so big that, apart from some infatuated girls, who would bother to find Huo Yuhao studying somewhere?

Because get out of class had just ended, many people around were startled by the commotion.

"Who are they? They all have white hair, especially that girl, her eyes are red, she's so beautiful!"

"I don't know, they must be looking for Huo Yuhao. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of people hanging around our class today, especially a lot of pretty girls. That guy, Hajihao, is really something to be envious of."

"I think I know who they are. They have white hair and red eyes. They seem to be the brother and sister from the senior year. They were previously hailed as the genius brother and sister of soul tools, a once-in-a-millennium talent in the empire."

"Trying to cause trouble? No way, Yuhao would never mess with these siblings."

"Tch, all looks and no brains, can't be here to make friends. After all, Yuhao broke the Empire's record, maybe it's just a case of geniuses appreciating each other."

Ignoring the gossip around him, Xiao Hongchen said helplessly.

"There's nothing I can do, Meng. I never expected that Huo Yuhao would be gone."

Meng Hongchen pouted and said angrily, "I don't care. Anyway, I put aside my soul guidance research today. You have to make it up to me since I didn't get to see Brother Huo Yuhao."

"Alright, alright, how about I take you to the Royal Auction House outside the academy?"

"Well, it's a real pity that I didn't get to see Huo Yuhao. The girls said he's really handsome."

"You're just lusting after her body, aren't you, Meng?"

"I didn't, you idiot bro."

"Ha~"

The Offering Hall, the residence of Kong Deming.

"Teacher, are you sure I want to soak in this?"

Looking at the bubbling green medicinal bath in front of him, Huo Yuhao felt like the sky had fallen. Was this thing going to boil him alive?
"Stop your nonsense, brat. This contains countless spiritual herbs to strengthen the body, cleanse the marrow, and improve physical fitness. And you're still picking and choosing with me."

Kong Deming grabbed Huo Yuhao by the neck and said, "Go inside!"

The expected scalding sensation did not come. Huo Yuhao felt his physical strength constantly improving and the medicinal power that was nourishing his meridians at all times. He took off his soaked clothes and immediately immersed himself in cultivation.

Kong Deming shook his head and chuckled as he watched this scene.

"You brat, you've taken two pills in one go. It seems you'll need to take a medicinal bath to solidify your foundation during this period."

Two hours later.

Feeling his physical abilities improve by at least 20%, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but smile.

"Teacher, will this medicinal bath be available every day from now on?"

Kong Deming's lips twitched instantly, and he laughed and scolded, "What are you thinking? You brat, you have no idea how much manpower and resources it took to put together this medicinal bath. You should be happy if it's only once a week, let alone every day. Dream on."

That's okay too.

Old Huo isn't greedy; once a week is good enough. After all, even the core descendants of top families might not be able to enjoy this kind of treatment.

"By the way, I see you're about to reach level 20. During this holiday, I'll have someone go with you to hunt suitable soul beasts."

“Spiritual attribute soul beasts are rare, but there are quite a few spiritual attribute soul beasts in the Demon Forest. I will choose the most suitable one for you and try to arrange the one with the longest lifespan for you.”

Evil forest?

Huo Yuhao frowned. He knew he would have to go through this sooner or later, but this would delay his trip to the far north to persuade the Ice Emperor to make a sacrifice with Tianmeng.

My name is Huo Yuhao, and I'm about to start lying.

"Teacher, actually my second martial soul is not an ordinary weapon martial soul. It can be inscribed with some characteristics and can also grasp a trace of the power of destiny."

Seeing that his teacher's expression remained normal, Huo Yuhao continued.

"Although my second martial soul has not yet fully awakened, my martial soul instinct tells me that there is an opportunity waiting for me to obtain. Therefore, during this holiday, I want to follow the guidance of my second martial soul to obtain the opportunity that belongs to me."

Inscribed with special properties? And it also grants the ability to grasp a trace of the power of destiny?
Kong Deming said he had never heard of such a thing. What level of weapon spirit was this? Could it be a divinely favored spirit? But that shouldn't be the case. Although his disciple's Spirit Eye spirit was rare, it had not undergone a second awakening. The two didn't match.
"Yuhao, summon your second martial soul and let your master see it."

Kong Deming is incredibly curious right now.

Last time I only glanced at it briefly and couldn't understand it at all, but now I have another chance.

If what my disciple said is true, that a martial soul possesses a trace of the ability to sense fate, coupled with the attributes of inscribed characteristics, then that would truly be extraordinary.

Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao summoned the Bell of the End. In addition to the twelve zodiac animals and four sacred beasts that were originally on it, the two bell patterns that belonged to [Strong Luck] and [Destiny] had also appeared on it.

In addition, there are eight bell patterns that have not yet awakened, dormant on the martial soul.

After looking at it for a long time, Kong Deming still couldn't figure it out, so he asked directly.

"Yuhao, how did you know that your second martial soul has the ability to be inscribed?"

Huo Yuhao explained, "I knew my teacher would ask that."

"Because the first spirit ring of my Spirit Eye Martial Soul, the first spirit beast, possessed the spiritual attribute, so after obtaining the first spirit ring, it somehow ended up being used on my second Martial Soul, and the Bell of the End was also engraved with the spiritual attribute."

Kong Deming accepted this explanation.

“Jing Hongchen said before that Yuhao, your first soul skill can be called a divine skill. Come, let your master experience it.”

Shrugging, Huo Yuhao used the Spiritual Detection Sharing skill again. With his soul power now at level nineteen, the ability of this soul skill has been greatly enhanced.

"Good, good, good. Jing Hongchen and the others are right. This soul skill is indeed worthy of being called a divine skill."

Leaving aside the advantages of researching soul tools, just considering the attributes of shared and growable soul skills, in the later stages, the strategic support capabilities from a god's-eye view, with their help in full-area coverage and group buffs, will be enough to deliver a disruptive blow to any tactical system.

Of course, the first soul skill still doesn't prove anything. To ensure that his teacher believed him, Huo Yuhao controlled the Bell of the End and performed a weak [Fate] Echo.

"【I heard the echo of destiny!!】"
