Although Huo Yuhao’s voice was very soft, everyone present was a Spirit Master whose hearing far exceeded that of ordinary people, and they all heard Huo Yuhao’s cry of “Mom.”
Tang Ya laughed out loud on the spot, completely abandoning any semblance of a lady’s image.
Realizing his awkwardness, Huo Yuhao felt his inferiority complex surface once again, and he lowered his head in shame.
“Child, walking all the way here must have been extremely difficult, and you must have suffered a lot!”
“It’s fine.
With Teacher here from now on, I won’t let you suffer anymore.”
Huang Jinxu did not laugh; instead, he looked at the Huo Yuhao before him with a face full of heartache, gently speaking as he straightened the boy’s head.
“Lift your head, straighten your back, and live uprightly as a human being.”
“Today, Teacher will teach you a principle: a man, even if he dies standing, will never live on his knees.”
Huang Jinxu deepened his tone slightly to cheer Huo Yuhao on.
“Teacher, I have remembered it.”
“No matter what I face in the future, I will definitely straighten my back.”
It was as if Huang Jinxu’s encouragement and infection, as well as this unprecedented warmth, gave Huo Yuhao a bit more confidence.
Throughout the entire process, he remained in a daze, and before he even had time to think, he had muddle-headedly taken him as his master.
“Why is the Heavenly Fiend Douluo so radical today?
Is it because he encountered someone with the same destiny as him?”
Looking at the Heavenly Fiend Douluo, who was completely different from usual, Beibei always felt something was amiss.
It was a strong sense of detachment.
In a trance, he felt as if he had never truly known the Heavenly Fiend Douluo before him.
Beibei did not know that Huang Jinxu had been waiting for this day for a very, very long time.
Those evaluations of him by Dragon God Douluo Mu En were only the Elementary version.
With the enhancement of his cultivation, the development of his Spirit, and the connection and resonance with the ominous star related to that moment of his, his ability to curse those around him had grown increasingly stronger, to the point that even Shrek Academy could barely hold on.
If this continued, major problems would surely arise.
Shrek Academy during this time period already belonged to a period when Luck was at its thinnest and most unstable.
Once Luck completely withered, Shrek Academy would likely never recover.
By the time Shrek Academy reacted, he would likely be hunted down by everyone in Shrek Academy.
With his current strength, he truly wasn’t afraid of Shrek Academy’s pursuit, but it was hard to say about the Divine Realm.
Even without the Divine Realm’s involvement, he wouldn’t expect to have any good days in the future.
Fortunately, after waiting for so long and dragging it out for so long, the Son of Luck had finally arrived.
How could he not be excited.
“Yuhao, did you come here to hunt your first spirit ring?”
After confirming the master-Disciple relationship and sensing that Huo Yuhao’s destiny and his own had become intertwined, Huang Jinxu began to care about his Disciple’s cultivation situation.
“Ye…
Yes.”
It was very obvious that Huo Yuhao was still not very accustomed to the feeling of suddenly having an extra teacher, and he was still very uncomfortable.
“Step forward and let Teacher check your body.”
Although Huang Jinxu said orally to let Huo Yuhao step forward, he actually took the initiative to step forward himself, actively approaching this Disciple of his.
There was no helping it; Huo Yuhao at this time was extremely sensitive and had an inferiority complex, making it very difficult for him to take the initiative.
As the teacher, he naturally had to take the initiative.
Approaching Huo Yuhao, the Soul Power within his body circulated, merging into the boy’s physique to inspect his physical condition.
Needless to say, Huo Yuhao’s condition belonged to a state of extreme malnutrition.
If he were normally allowed to absorb a spirit ring, he might not even be able to absorb a hundred-year spirit ring.
“Follow Teacher back to Shrek City for a while, wait for Teacher to condition your body, and then come back to hunt your first spirit ring for you.”
Huang Jinxu thought for a moment before speaking.
Taking Huo Yuhao away right now was, on one hand, to help him recuperate his body, and on the other hand, for further probing.
He wanted to determine one matter, which concerned his subsequent plans.
“Teacher, I…
will listen to you…”
Huo Yuhao could feel that Teacher was doing this for his own good, filled with thick care.
Ever since his mother left, he had never felt such warmth again, so naturally he wouldn’t refuse.
“Do you need me to help you hunt Spirits?”
When pulling Huo Yuhao’s hand and preparing to leave, Huang Jinxu seemed to only then remember that there were other people around, and he asked Beibei and Tang Ya.
“Teacher Huang, no need.
I’ll just take Xiaoya to hunt Spirits.”
Beibei saw Tang Ya’s resistance, but felt too embarrassed to speak out, so he took the initiative to step forward and refuse.
“Third Spirit Ability, Starlight Shelter.”
The third spirit ring beneath Huang Jinxu’s body lit up, and then two strands of starlight shot from his fingertips, merging into Beibei and Tang Ya’s bodies.
“This Starlight Shelter can last for three days and three nights.
When you encounter danger, it will automatically activate.”
“Act with caution.”
Huang Jinxu had the posture of exhorting his own Junior.
“Many thanks, Teacher Huang!”
Beibei hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude.
Afterwards, Huang Jinxu took Huo Yuhao and flew directly toward Shrek City.
They stopped at a high-end restaurant in the city.
Leading Huo Yuhao toward the interior of the restaurant, Huang Jinxu introduced the restaurant’s situation to him while also introducing him to the person in charge of the restaurant.
Huo Yuhao’s brain was in a daze the entire way; he completely didn’t know how to think, and only attentively remembered everything Teacher said.
The events that happened today were simply too illusory for him.
A Titled Douluo suddenly appeared to take him as a Disciple, and this teacher of his seemed rather wealthy.
Everything he experienced and encountered was something he had never seen before.
“This is a potion improved based on the xuanshui pill.
It can improve your cultivation talent.
Take one bottle at a time, with an interval of two days.
After finishing all three bottles, your cultivation talent will increase to the equivalent of around Innate rank 6 Soul Power.”
“Within the next seven days, I will help you better absorb the medicinal power and train you at the same time.
The process will be very hard; do you have the confidence to persist?”
While speaking, Huang Jinxu took out three bottles of xuanshui potion from his storage spirit tool.
This was something he had researched and improved, and its effect far surpassed the highest-quality xuanshui pills.
It couldn’t be better for helping Huo Yuhao lay a foundation.
“Teacher, I can!”
Hearing that suffering hardship could make him stronger, determination instantly surfaced in Huo Yuhao’s eyes.
Huang Jinxu could see that behind this determination lay hidden hatred and fury.
“Go take the next bottle first, and come find Teacher after the medicinal power is mostly digested.”
Huang Jinxu looked at Huo Yuhao with satisfaction, nodded, then rubbed the boy’s head and told him what to do next.
Huo Yuhao attentively listened to everything Huang Jinxu said from beginning to end, not missing a single word.
“Little fellow, destiny has already marked a price tag for all gifts.
In the end, what kind of road you and I will walk down depends entirely on the destiny of the two of us as master and Disciple.”
Looking at the sensible Huo Yuhao before him, Huang Jinxu felt a trace of guilt surface in his heart for a fleeting moment.
But this trace of guilt was quickly strangled by him.
