Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao's Path of the Knights

Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly, no longer thinking about it, and focused his attention on the bowl of noodles in his hand.

Why did the old man give them a bowl of noodles? Shouldn't nobles usually give them something that looks expensive?

Huo Yuhao didn't know, but for him, he preferred things with practical value to those that looked fancy but were only superficially attractive.

Just like the bowl of noodles in my hand, it may not fill me up, but at least it can alleviate my hunger a little.

"It smells so good, but I don't think I have any utensils. I'll have to try it at the cafeteria."

After putting the noodles into his spatial soul tool, Huo Yuhao put away his toiletries and then left the dormitory.

Huo Yuhao, having obtained a pair of cutlery from the cafeteria, took out the noodles given to him by the butler and prepared to try them.

Huo Yuhao stopped after just one bite.

He looked down at the bowl of noodles, which didn't look fancy and was even quite plain, and his eyes widened involuntarily.

This bowl of noodles is surprisingly delicious!

It looks like just an ordinary bowl of plain noodles, topped with only a handful of finely chopped scallions and a little salt, with no other ingredients, yet it is full of mild and mellow umami flavor.

"How did that butler manage to cook such delicious food?"

Huo Yuhao stared incredulously at the seemingly ordinary bowl of plain noodles, unable to fathom how it was made.

However, the boy quickly suppressed his curiosity.

The noodles are getting cold; let's eat them first.

The bowl of noodles was emptied in no time, with hardly any soup left.

"It's so delicious, it's just a pity there's only one bowl."

Huo Yuhao looked at the empty bowl on the table, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

Such delicious noodles, I wish Armored Guy and the Boss could eat them too...

Perhaps we could ask that ocean-viewing housekeeper how to make such delicious noodles.

After all, this was the first time Huo Yuhao had tasted such delicious noodles.

Looking at the other dishes he had ordered in the cafeteria, Huo Yuhao didn't waste any of them and ate them all.

Although the food in the cafeteria was good, none of it tasted as good as the bowl of noodles that the housekeeper made.

……

After leaving the cafeteria, Huo Yuhao went to the third-year classroom.

Even though his soul power is currently insufficient and creating a level 3 soul master would be very difficult, he still needs to study the knowledge of level 3 soul masters regularly.

Upon entering the classroom, all I saw were unfamiliar faces.

After choosing a suitable place to sit down, Huo Yuhao took out his notes and reviewed them while waiting for the teacher to arrive.

Zhang Hong pushed open the door and entered. After scanning the room, he confirmed that Huo Yuhao was studying and nodded slightly, seemingly approving.

"Attend class."

As Huo Yuhao focused intently on his studies, the class quietly came to an end.

After Teacher Zhang Hong left the classroom, Huo Yuhao also packed up his books and notes and prepared to go to the library.

As soon as Huo Yuhao stepped out of the classroom, a student he didn't recognize stood in front of him.

"You're Huo Yuhao, right? Your butler is at the academy gate looking for you."

After leaving those words, the unfamiliar student walked away.

Huo Yuhao: "?"

His butler?

When did he get a butler?

He doesn't even have a home now, so where would he get a housekeeper?

Filled with doubt, Huo Yuhao glanced at the departing figure, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to go to the school gate to check the situation.

Hurriedly arriving at the school gate, Huo Yuhao saw the butler grandfather standing next to his roommate Tian Cejian outside the school.

Oh, it's this butler grandpa.

After taking out his student card and verifying his identity, Huo Yuhao arrived at the school gate.

"Grandpa Butler, did you call for me?"

"I'm sorry to bother you, Huo Yuhao, but I do have something I'd like to ask you."

As the butler was about to bow to Huo Yuhao again, the boy quickly stopped him.

"Just tell me what's wrong, Grandpa Butler. If there's anything I can do to help, I will do my best."

Huo Yuhao had a good impression of this overly kind butler, but...

It would be even better if the butler could refrain from bowing to him so readily.

"It's like this, Huo Yuhao. Due to the academy's rules, I can't stay at the academy to be with the young master for long. I was only able to enter this time because the academy granted me a special privilege, but it will only last for a day and a half at most. And I'm worried that the young master won't be used to the academy's food..."

Recalling the taste of that bowl of noodles that morning, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but agree with what the butler had said.

If you've been eating delicious food comparable to that bowl of noodles since you were a child... you might not be used to the food at the academy, even though it's quite tasty.

"Therefore, I would like to ask you, Huo Yuhao, to spare a little time to deliver the meal I prepared to the young master. I know your time is also very valuable, so I will pay you a certain amount of compensation. I wonder if you agree?"

Feeling the hopeful look in the butler's eyes, Huo Yuhao sighed silently in his heart.

"I will hand over the meal you prepared, Grandpa Butler, to Tian Ce Jian. However, I don't need any reward. I just want to ask you, Grandpa Butler, how did you manage to make such delicious food?"

Upon hearing this, the butler lowered his head slightly, pondered for a moment, and finally raised his head to look at Huo Yuhao:

"I have a notebook that records my cooking tips. If Huo Yuhao doesn't mind, I can lend you that notebook."

"Really? Thank you, Grandpa Butler."

"I should be thanking you, Huo Yuhao. Thank you for your help."

After setting the time for each day, Huo Yuhao parted ways with the butler.

"I never expected that Grandpa Butler would care so much about Tian Cejian, and even be willing to take care of his meals every day."

Recalling the relationship between Tian Cejian and the butler, Huo Yuhao felt that their relationship and affection were far better than that of a normal butler and young master.

As Huo Yuhao pondered, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

He has short, dark brown hair with wispy bangs that flutter slightly in front of his forehead. He has handsome features and his eyes often convey confidence, even a hint of arrogance.

"The Heavenly Strategy Sword? What do you want with me?"

The person standing in front of Huo Yuhao was none other than Huo Yuhao's roommate, Tian Ce Jian.

"I heard you were the fastest student in the academy to become a Level 2 Soul Master."

"Probably, I don't pay much attention to these things."

Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly. Because his schedule was always packed, he didn't really know what others thought of him.

"Very well. In order to restore the glory of the Tian Ce family and to become the best, I will replace you and become the fastest to be promoted!"

After leaving those words, Tian Ce Jian left without giving Huo Yuhao a chance to react.

Huo Yuhao: "?"

What's going on here?

Watching Tian Ce Jian's departing figure, Huo Yuhao sighed deeply.

This strange aristocratic roommate is really difficult to get along with.
