But... there was nothing there.

The fluctuation came and went quickly, as if it were just Huo Yuhao's illusion.

However, just when Huo Yuhao thought he was being paranoid, a figure appeared out of thin air in the room.

The figure appeared without warning, as if he had always been standing there, but Huo Yuhao simply hadn't seen him.

Huo Yuhao's body tensed up suddenly, and he subconsciously prepared to release his martial spirit!

However, when he saw the figure clearly, he was completely stunned.

"Teacher Han... Teacher Han?!"

Standing in the room was Han Tianyi.

He stood quietly by the desk, as if he had been standing there for a long time.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Huo Yuhao's forehead.

When did Han Tianyi arrive?

Why didn't he notice at all?

Not to mention Huo Yuhao, even Tianmeng Bingcan in the sea of ​​consciousness was shocked at this moment.

"Holy crap?!"

Tianmeng Bingcan's voice was filled with disbelief.

"When did this guy get here? Why isn't my mental detection working at all?!"

"Wasn't he... wasn't he at the academy? How did he suddenly appear here?!"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's brows were furrowed tightly. It could clearly sense every corner around it, but Han Tianyi was just standing there, and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm couldn't sense anything at all.

"This is impossible..."

Tianmeng Bingcan muttered to herself, her voice tinged with a sense of frustration.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart, stood up, and looked at Han Tianyi respectfully.

"Professor Han, what brings you here?"

Han Tianyi did not answer.

His gaze fell on Huo Yuhao's forehead.

“I saw everything you just did.”

Huo Yuhao's heart sank.

"Place the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife on your forehead and let that thing merge into your body..."

Han Tianyi's tone remained calm, but her eyes held a hint of severity.

"Yuhao, don't you think you're being a bit too reckless?"

Huo Yuhao opened his mouth, as if to say something.

Han Tianyi didn't give him a chance to speak, but continued.

"You trust that soul entity named Elex?"

"You trust that murderous blade that was killed by all thirty-seven of its owners?"

"You just stick it on your forehead and let it become part of your body?"

"Have you considered what you would do if there were still some curses remaining there, or if the soul in your sea of ​​consciousness harbored ill intentions towards you?"

Huo Yuhao was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and slowly spoke.

"Teacher Han, I'm sorry."

"It was my oversight."

He looked up at Han Tianyi, his tone carrying a hint of trepidation.

"However... I have my reasons for doing these things."

"Because Teacher Makino told me that I am in a state of shared prosperity and shared loss, and that I will not be harmful to me."

"Moreover... the teacher also gave me something, saying that if Elder Yi wanted to harm me, that thing would be automatically triggered to ensure my safety."

Huo Yuhao gave a wry smile as he said this.

Han Tianyi listened quietly, her expression remaining unchanged.

He only spoke slowly after Huo Yuhao finished speaking.

"So, you think that because the academy provides you with that safety net, you can trust others without hesitation?"

Huo Yuhao opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but found that Han Tianyi was right.

"The things the academy gives you can definitely guarantee your safety."

Han Tianyi's voice remained calm, but the severity in her tone was undiminished.

“But, Yuhao, that’s not a reason for you to trust others so easily.”

"It's right to not have ill intentions towards others, but..."

He paused, looking directly into Huo Yuhao's eyes.

"We must not let our guard down."

"When you put that piece of gold of life on your forehead, did you ever think about contacting the academy to confirm it first?"

"Does purifying that piece of living gold really have to happen today?"

"Does fusing the gold of life have to be done in the Sun and Moon Empire? Can't we do it back at the academy?"

More beads of sweat appeared on Huo Yuhao's forehead.

"Didn't you think about these things back then?"

"Or perhaps..."

"Are you worried that if you delay, the college will take your things?"

"no!"

Huo Yuhao shook his head hurriedly, his voice tinged with urgency.

"I've never thought of it that way!"

"So what are your thoughts?"

Han Tianyi asked, and Huo Yuhao opened his mouth, only to find that his reason seemed so weak in the face of Han Tianyi's question.

He remained silent for a long time before slowly lowering his head.

"Teacher Han... I'm sorry."

His voice carried a hint of guilt.

"I underestimated it."

Han Tianyi looked at him without saying a word.

The room remained quiet for a long time.

Finally, Han Tianyi let out a soft sigh.

"That's it."

His tone finally softened somewhat.

"You didn't get into any trouble this time, and you even gained some benefits."

"But, Yuhao, look at the taste of the cheeks and the water on the side."

He paused for a moment, then added.

"Think more and ask more questions before doing anything in the future."

"Don't put yourself in unnecessary danger."

Huo Yuhao nodded solemnly.

"Yes, Teacher Han, I've got it."

……

Seeing Huo Yuhao's remorseful attitude, Han Tianyi's expression finally softened.

"okay."

He waved his hand.

"Next, you need to work hard to make up for your grades."

"I've deducted points from your record for this experience."

Huo Yuhao nodded quickly.

"Yes, I will try my best, then, Elder Yi..."

"Don't worry about that. He won't pose any danger to you. The academy's safety net is still there."

Upon hearing these words, Tianmeng Bingcan couldn't help but speak up.

"Isn't this your reason, Yuhao? Why are you getting points deducted here?"

Huo Yuhao, however, was aware that Han Tianyi meant that he had not communicated with the academy before fusing with the Gold of Life.

A lack of caution.

Han Tianyi glanced at him but didn't say anything more.

He raised his hand and lightly touched the air with his fingertips.

A silver button appeared out of thin air in front of him.

Han Tianyi pressed the button.

hum-

A soft light emanated from the button, illuminating Han Tianyi's entire figure.

The next second, Han Tianyi's figure disappeared from the room.

It was as if he had never been there at all.

……

The room fell silent again.

Huo Yuhao stared in shock at the spot where Han Tianyi had disappeared.

"This……"

His voice carried a hint of disbelief.

"What kind of soul tool is this? How come... I can't sense any fluctuations at all?"

In the sea of ​​spirits, Tianmeng Bingcan was also completely bewildered.

"Wait... why is my mental detection completely useless?"

"I didn't notice him when he appeared, and I didn't notice him when he left!"

"This is too weird!"

Tianmeng Bingcan frantically used mental probes, trying to find any clues left by Han Tianyi.

"This is impossible..."

Tianmeng Bingcan's voice was full of frustration.

"I'm a million-year-old soul beast!"

Huo Yuhao gave a wry smile, ignoring Tianmeng Bingcan's wails, and began to consider his actions, realizing that he had indeed not thought things through.

My mindset got a little off. Because my strength had increased and the academy was there to back me up, I lowered my guard a bit.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath. Next... he needed to think carefully about how to make up for his lost experience points.

However... they didn't explain how the points for this experience were calculated; I had to figure it out myself.
