Douluo Continent: Angel Saint Huo Yuhao

Chapter 265 Materials
"This time she's really gone."

When Huo Yuhao pushed open the door but didn't feel the lingering shadowy power outside, he belatedly realized that it was time for the new recruits' intensive training.

All the holy servants, including Nana, were taken away, and it's unknown when they will see each other again.

"Oh? Junior's back..."

Ye Xiaosheng, whose room was next to his, pushed open the door and yawned. When he turned around, he saw Huo Yuhao standing by the door in a daze.

He was able to become a leader among the Shrek Seven Devils purely because he was old enough and had a high enough soul power level. In terms of training qualifications and growth potential, he was far inferior to He Caitou.

Therefore, he had nothing to do with the news related to Huo Yuhao. He only knew that this outstanding junior had been elusive ever since he came to Sun Moon Academy, and it was normal for him to disappear for a month or two at a time.

"Hey~ thinking about that girl?"

Thinking of the conscription list announced yesterday, Ye Xiaosheng's face revealed a mischievous glint: "They've only been gone one night and you're already so hung up on them? I think you've fallen into the trap of the Sun Moon Empire—"

"Yuhao, what's wrong?"

Before Ye Xiaosheng could finish speaking, the mythical beast stretched out its arm and wrapped it around Huo Yuhao's neck, leaning against him and poking its head out to greet Ye Xiaosheng: "Hello, senior~"

Ye Xiaosheng: "...?"

'No? You've only been here one night and you're already—'

Although he didn't say it outright, Ye Xiaosheng's eyes, which were almost bulging out of their sockets, undoubtedly revealed his questioning.

And an incredibly intense resentment.

He asked himself why no one was willing to throw themselves at him when he was good-looking and had a good figure.
"Ahem... Senior, this is a misunderstanding!"

Huo Yuhao responded dryly, but the more he spoke, the more awkward he felt: "That girl and I didn't have that kind of relationship at all. We were just friends at most..."

"Okay, okay... I understand, I understand! You don't need to explain."

Ye Xiaosheng raised his hand and gestured, his eyes clearly saying "scumbag": "You play with her for now, I'm going to Mingde Hall."

"Mingde Hall?"

Huo Yuhao frowned deeply: "That place is still under reconstruction. All Soul Masters below level seven have been expelled. What are you going there for?"

"Professor Fanyu and that Caitou took on a reconstruction task and sent us exchange students over to observe and learn, and to lend a hand."

Ye Xiaosheng looked at Huo Yuhao with some suspicion, clearly not expecting that this soul tool ignoramus would know such information. But he didn't think much of it and just shared He Caitou's amazing achievements with Huo Yuhao with a gleam in his eyes.

In less than two years, he successfully made up for the shortcomings of Shrek Academy's teaching methods, leaping from level five to the peak of level six! He even won championships in multiple competitions!
It can be said that the entire new generation of Sun Moon Academy was overwhelmed by this genius who fell from the sky, which fully demonstrated the strength of Shrek Academy.

"Oh? That's quite impressive..."

Huo Yuhao, who had been standing by the door for more than ten minutes, had a blank expression and offered his praise in a formulaic manner.

To be honest, he didn't really know the difficulty of advancing to Soul Master, so he couldn't judge He Caitou's talent level. But since his senior said so, then... he must really be very powerful?

'Is that hard-boiled egg really that attention-seeking?'

The auspicious beast, tired of listening, muttered softly, then raised its voice to interrupt Ye Xiaosheng's incessant chatter: "Senior, it should be almost time now!"

"Ah? Oh! Yes, yes... I'll be going now."

Ye Xiaosheng hurriedly left, not forgetting to tease Huo Yuhao before he went: "Junior, work hard~ You must try your best to bring them all back to Shrek!"

"Cough~ I will..."

Huo Yuhao waved his hand stiffly, then detached the auspicious beast from his body: "What exactly were you doing just now—" "Tch, you're not happy about helping you save face?"

The auspicious beast bared its teeth indignantly: "It's already good enough that we didn't ask you for any reward."

"I'd rather you had it."

Huo Yuhao was immediately speechless: "I'll transfer all the project funds to you."

Since returning to Sun and Moon, he had stayed in Mingde Hall as much as possible to prevent this guy from forcing a bed-sharing session, but he never expected that the Body Sect would lead the team to blow up the entire public testing ground.

Now, he's forced to return to his dormitory, and the mythical beast simply lies down next to him without any hesitation.

It made him feel like there was a ferocious beast beside him at all times, and he was restless day and night.

"Is the project cost... a lot?"

The auspicious beast muttered somewhat blankly. She really didn't know what Huo Yuhao and those soul masters had talked about, she only knew that she would have to keep busy for the next period of time.

"What do you think about investigating the underground conditions for a brand new Mingde Hall?"

Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow.

This time, they were receiving government funding, along with donations from all the Soul Masters in the Sun Moon Empire, and even a small amount of friendly assistance transferred from the Douluo Three Kingdoms.

Even if he only receives a small portion, it would still be an astonishing sum of money.

"It's time to get another batch of supplies."

Huo Yuhao tapped his storage soul tool and sighed softly.

He hadn't forgotten those holy servants who stayed in the undead demiplane. In addition to distributing cultivation methods, he also asked Elder Yi for a group of undead to help build their dwellings.

Of course, the living expenses of so many people are considerable, and the few life fruit trees produced in the plane are simply not enough to support them. He, as the leader, has to purchase them from outside.

"Moreover... we now have sufficient funds, so perhaps we can send in a batch of metal materials for them to make soul tools."

Huo Yuhao's mental probing, which swept across Mingde Hall, was no joke. Since Jing Hongchen had no objections, he didn't need to hold back and unceremoniously scanned all the core formations.

To this day, he has amassed a mountain of blueprints for those holy servants, covering a wide variety of types, just short of having them replicate them.

Huo Yuhao had already planned to hire the seller who would provide the necessary supplies.

——Aodu Chamber of Commerce!
Among the three major underground organizations in Mingdu, the Xishui Alliance is a cult in disguise, the Pingfan Alliance is a monopoly group specializing in the sex industry, and only this Chamber of Commerce is an honest and law-abiding black market.

I heard that these guys are also connected with Prince Xu Guozhong in the suburbs. As long as you can pay the price, they can even spare a share of rare materials that are monopolized by the imperial government from the armory for you.

Pack up your clothes, leave the college, and go into the alley.

Then~
It's your turn to make your appearance, Ye Guyi!

The Aodu Chamber of Commerce, being an organization hidden in the shadows, is obviously not easy to find. Instead of wasting your own time, it's better to just ask the locals who have been involved in organized crime since childhood what they have to say.

"Kuang—"

With a tap of his long staff, the gate to the dead, as tall as a person, burst open. Two figures, dressed in disheveled clothes and even with unkempt hair, stepped out of the gate and silently watched Huo Yuhao launch the summoning.

"Your Holiness..."

Ye Guyi grinned, a forced smile on her face: "Long time no see~ huh?"
