Transmigrating into Huo Yuhao, my abilities are refreshed every month.

The fact that this soul tool is a copy of Tang San's makes Huo Yuhao a little uncomfortable, but he'll make do with it for now and replace it when he has more money.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaoya. If you want to eat anything in the future, you can come to me. I'm quite confident in my cooking skills."

"That's wonderful!" Tang Ya's eyes sparkled, already looking forward to the delicious food she would be enjoying.

When Bei Bei saw Huo Yuhao accept the gift, she took him to complete the enrollment procedures. Along the way, she pointed out the sculptures in the academy and gave Huo Yuhao a detailed introduction to the Shrek Seven Devils and the Golden Iron Triangle.

Huo Yuhao also observed the sculptures and found that their images were more similar to the Shrek Seven Devils from the comics.

After examining the sculptures and getting a sense of their significance, Huo Yuhao looked away and listened quietly to Bei Bei's praise of those people with a polite smile.

It has to be said that if he hadn't read the original Douluo Continent novel and knew what level Grandmaster Tang San and the others were at, he would have really thought that Tang San and the others were saints just from Bei Bei's introduction.

What kind of expressions would the people of Shrek Academy have if they saw with their own eyes how despicable their ancestors and founders were?

That really piques my curiosity.

Chapter 17 Mu En, contact with a Title Douluo, complete!

Bei Bei and Tang Ya had many things to do, so after helping Huo Yuhao complete the enrollment procedures, they said goodbye.

Huo Yuhao arrived at the student dormitory alone.

Shrek Academy's student dormitories are in four colors: white, yellow, purple, and black, each corresponding to a different grade level.

The freshman dormitories were in a white area. Huo Yuhao arrived at the white building entrance, where an elderly man who looked quite old was sitting. The old man was dressed in a gray cloth robe, his face was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were dim and yellow, and his eyelids drooped, giving him an appearance of being frail and old. The sunlight between the buildings shone perfectly on him, and the reclining chair looked quite comfortable.

Huo Yuhao knew that this was Mu En, the only remaining Limit Douluo of Shrek Academy, and also Bei Bei's great-grandfather.

Remembering that his [Succubus Body] solidification task required him to interact with a Title Douluo for thirty seconds, Huo Yuhao stepped forward and greeted him warmly, "Hello, grandpa, I'm a freshman here to move into the dormitory. Are you sunbathing here? Let me tell you, as you get older, although you need to rest more, you should also walk around and exercise properly. How about I help you up for a spin?"

Mu En didn't even lift his lowered eyelids, looking old, but his eyes gleamed with a sharp light. He looked Huo Yuhao up and down with interest and said, "You're getting old, you can't do anything reckless. Young man, you should go and tidy up your dorm."

Huo Yuhao didn't leave. Instead, he walked over to Mu En in a few steps, took the old man's arm with one hand, and grabbed the old man's left hand with the other, saying, "Look at what you're saying. It's precisely because you're old that you should walk around more. If you don't move around, your body will rust, and if your body rusts, you'll age even faster. So, walking around appropriately can slow down aging."

"Let me help you walk a bit, young man. Please don't be shy with me, I love helping the elderly."

Mu En chuckled twice, then stood up with Huo Yuhao's help. "Young man, you're right. If a person doesn't move around, they'll become rusty, and once they become rusty, all sorts of problems will arise. Maybe I should move around occasionally. Come on, young man, accompany this old man for a walk."

After saying that, Mu En took two shaky steps, his unsteady gait making him look like he could be blown away at any moment. Fortunately, Huo Yuhao was there to support him.

Huo Yuhao felt that the old man was so heavy. He was only supporting the old man's arm, but it felt like there was something weighing hundreds of pounds on him. Was the old man trying to hurt or retaliate against him?

Huo Yuhao silently grumbled to himself, enduring the heavy pressure on his body as he helped Mu En stroll around the dormitory.

Looking at the energetic children around the student dormitory, Mu En couldn't help but recall the times when he, Long Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui were adventuring across the continent when he was young.

He was so full of youthful vigor back then, even fighting with his friend Long Xiaoyao to pursue Ye Xishui, and ultimately he came out slightly stronger. Now, looking back, a trace of regret is rising in his heart.

He shouldn't have fought with Long Xiaoyao for Ye Xishui. Maybe then he could have met with Long Xiaoyao more often, instead of not seeing each other for decades.

About half an hour later, the old man and the young man returned to the front of the freshman dormitory building, and Mu En also came out of his reverie.

I'm getting old; I find myself reminiscing about the past without even realizing it.

Mu En chuckled inwardly and looked at the young man who was helping him up.

Seeing Huo Yuhao covered in sweat, Mu En chuckled and said, "Young man, you seem a bit weak. You're exhausted after just a short walk with this old man. Looks like you're the one who needs to get some exercise!"

"Thank you, senior, for the tip!"

Huo Yuhao stood up respectfully in response, secretly thinking to himself, "You old geezer, you're really wicked. You've been putting hundreds of pounds of weight on me for almost half an hour. How could I not be sweating profusely?"

Moon lay back down on the recliner, half-closing his eyes, reverting to his initial drowsy state, and said, "Just call me as before."

After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling Huo Yuhao to leave. "Go on. Your dorm is number 108, the third room on the left on the first floor. The fourth floor and up are girls' dorms, you can't go up there. If you are caught, you will be expelled."

Huo Yuhao thanked the old man again before entering the dormitory building.

Moon remained motionless, muttering to himself, "What an interesting little fellow. Good physical attributes, and even better mental strength. This time, the academy has truly recruited an extraordinary talent!"

Huo Yuhao used half of his mind to search for his dormitory, and the other half to enter his mental sea to check the progress of the solidified task.

As expected, the "Title Douluo" section of the solidified task shows that it has been completed.

Huo Yuhao was in a good mood, and even his steps became much lighter.

The most difficult task has been completed; the others are a piece of cake.

It's just a pity about Elder Mu. I wonder if the succubus body has changed his sexual orientation. It should have only taken thirty seconds, but he insisted on dragging me around for so long and using gravity to compress me. Now, thirty seconds has become half an hour. The probability of the succubus body changing one's orientation has probably become a certainty over such a long period of time.

Huo Yuhao silently mourned for Mu En, but then he thought that even if he changed his orientation, it wouldn't have much of an impact on him, who was an old man. Could he possibly blossom like an old tree, with pear blossoms overshadowing crabapple blossoms?

Huo Yuhao quickly found the dormitory, opened the door, and a blast of somewhat stale air rushed out. Huo Yuhao quickly stepped aside, waited a moment, then held his breath and rushed in to open the window. This room hadn't been lived in for at least a month. It was covered in a layer of dust.

While the window was open for ventilation, Huo Yuhao took a good look at the dormitory's layout. The dormitory was small, only about ten square meters. Two beds took up most of the space, along with two old wardrobes and a table. There was also a separate room outside the dormitory, leading to a balcony and a bathroom.

Speaking of Shrek, they really are neither generous when they should be, nor frugal when they should be.

How much would it cost to improve the student dormitories and their furnishings, things that Soul Masters and ordinary people both need? In the Douluo Continent, only the things that Soul Masters need are the most expensive; the things that ordinary people need for daily life are actually very inexpensive.

Huo Yuhao wiped the sweat from his forehead. He originally wanted to take a shower as soon as he got back to the dormitory to dry off the sweat, but seeing how dirty the dormitory was, he decided to clean it first.

From the wardrobe, bed, and table to the floor, Huo Yuhao first cleaned away the dust and clutter from top to bottom. Then he fetched water, wiped, and mopped the floor, cleaning the room a second time. Only after seeing the tidy dormitory was Huo Yuhao satisfied.

After making his bed and putting a few clothes into the empty wardrobe, Huo Yuhao picked up his toiletries and went to take a good shower.

Chapter 18 Wang Dong

After taking a nice shower, Huo Yuhao, shirtless and wearing only shorts, saw a boy with light blue hair packing his luggage in the dormitory as soon as he stepped out of the bathroom.

Huo Yuhao was taken aback. Was this Wang Dong?

Unexpectedly, my roommate is Wang Dong, just like in the original novel. I wonder if this is fate or an arrangement by the great Tang God King.

He didn't actually have any ill feelings towards Wang Dong. In the original novel, apart from being a bit spoiled at the beginning, she didn't have any major flaws. In the end, she was bold in love and hate and was willing to sacrifice her life for Huo Yuhao. It's just a pity that she had a scumbag father who, in order to control Huo Yuhao, forcibly combined her and Wang Qiu'er's two divine cards into a useless card called Tang Wutong.

When Huo Yuhao first read this part of the novel, it was truly eye-opening. In other novels, popular characters are often split into several different versions, but here it's like using popular characters as fodder to create useless cards. Tang Wutong, dressed as both Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er, is neither like Wang Dong'er nor Wang Qiu'er; she's a complete mishmash, utterly disgusting to Huo Yuhao.

As for how to deal with Wang Dong'er?

Huo Yuhao decided to wait and see. He was definitely going to kill her scumbag father, Tang San. As for Wang Dong'er, what should he do?

Huo Yuhao felt that although Wang Dong'er would lose her father, she could gain him. He could take on the responsibility of caring for her and be her good father.

Huo Yuhao decided that in the future, he would have to arrange a scene where Tang San devised a brilliant plan to pacify the world, losing both his wife and daughter, to give the little rascal a good scolding, hoping that he wouldn't be so angry that he would die.

Having figured out his attitude towards Wang Dong'er, Huo Yuhao pushed open the door to the cubicle and entered the dormitory, greeting Wang Dong:

"You must be my roommate? My name is Huo Yuhao. Nice to meet you."

"My name is Wang Dong. Why didn't you knock?" Noticing someone enter the dormitory, Wang Dong snorted coldly and accused without turning around. After hanging the clothes she was carrying into the closet, she turned around and saw Huo Yuhao shirtless.

"Ah—" Wang Dong's exclamation was a bit sharp and piercing. A blush visibly crept up her slender, jade-like swan neck to her cheeks, and soon covered her entire face. It was hard to tell whether it was from embarrassment or anger.

"Why aren't you wearing any clothes!" Wang Dong scolded, his face flushed.

Huo Yuhao's lips twitched. "Don't slander me. I'm wearing clothes, you know. I'm not so perverted as to walk my bird in front of other people."

"You, you!" This time, Wang Dong was so angry that his eyes welled up with tears. "How can you be so vulgar! You bastard, you hooligan, you pervert!"

"How am I a bastard, a hooligan, or a pervert? It's normal for a grown man to be shirtless after taking a shower in a boys' dormitory. Who do you think you are, some young master? If you don't like it, you can change dorms and move out to a single room!" Huo Yuhao didn't tolerate Wang Dong's behavior. Wang Dong, who had just escaped from his comfortable life and was full of princess syndrome, needed the harsh realities of society to teach him a lesson.

"This is my dorm room. If anyone should change, it's you! Why should I change?" Wang Dong was spoiled since childhood. She was always the one who got along with others, never the one to do what others wanted.

Huo Yuhao pointed to the clean dormitory and said, "Just because I arrived before you, I cleaned the dormitory, so it's my dormitory! Even if you pile your luggage on the bed, it's still my dormitory!"

"You!" Wang Dong couldn't win an argument with Huo Yuhao, and her anger surged. She decided to use words rather than fists, and first subdue this bastard.

As long as he listens to her in the future, and considering how clean he kept the dormitory, she wouldn't mind letting him share a dormitory with her.

She's not an unreasonable person!

Wang Dong was certain.

"You bastard, I challenge you to a duel! Do you dare come out with me?" Wang Dong said fiercely, raising his head.

"A duel?" Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong's head held high. Her slender neck gave her an air of arrogance and domineering presence, like a white goose in battle.

Huo Yuhao said with a smile, "I'm willing to duel, but why would I duel with you? The dormitory is mine anyway."

Wang Dong felt a little uncomfortable under Huo Yuhao's malicious gaze, but she was not intimidated. As long as Huo Yuhao agreed to the duel, she believed she could win!

Wang Dong sneered, "The dormitory belongs to both of us, not you! If you challenge me to a duel and I win, you'll have to follow my rules. If you win, I'll listen to you!"

"You mean what you say? I'll do whatever you ask?" Huo Yuhao looked Wang Dong up and down with a meaningful gaze. Her short, neat, light blue hair and large, light blue eyes were striking. Her handsome face was arguably the most beautiful he had ever seen. Her long, snow-white swan neck seemed to radiate light; if she wore a black choker, she would undoubtedly be incredibly alluring. Her body was perfectly proportioned; he wondered if she would still be so approachable after reverting to women's clothing. Her long, straight legs, hidden beneath loose casual clothes, were undeniably a trait inherited from her mother, Xiao Wu.

"You pervert! You scoundrel!" Wang Dong felt extremely uncomfortable under Huo Yuhao's blatant gaze. "If you keep looking at me like that, I'll gouge your eyes out."

She raised her chin slightly, gesturing for Huo Yuhao to come out with her, "Compared to going out with me, I, Wang Dong, keep my word."

"Alright, I, Huo Yuhao, admire someone as straightforward as you. I just hope you won't go back on your word after you lose!" Huo Yuhao revealed an incredibly bright smile, looking at Wang Dong as if he were a complete idiot.

"We don't need to go outside to compete; we can just compete in the dorm. I'll stand right here, without activating my martial spirit. If you can hold my hand for thirty seconds without falling, you win. How about it?"

Wang Dong's beautiful pink-blue eyes were full of disdain and contempt as he sneered, "Thirty seconds? Without activating your martial soul? Are you sure it's not you who can hold on for thirty seconds without falling, but me? Fine, I'll see how you make me fall in thirty seconds. If you lose, I hope you'll abide by my rules, or I won't be polite."

Huo Yuhao smiled without saying a word, simply extending his right hand, waiting for Wang Dong to make his move.

Wang Dong couldn't stand Huo Yuhao's condescending attitude. She fiercely swung her right hand and slapped Huo Yuhao's palm, preparing to give him a hard time. The moment they made contact, she gripped Huo Yuhao's hand tightly, not letting him break free. Just as she was about to squeeze him hard, an indescribable feeling suddenly surged into her heart. She couldn't muster any strength at all, feeling an inexplicable weakness all over her body, as if a hot current was rushing through her body, and a strange feeling that went straight to her soul was eroding her will.
