Chapter 30

Huo Yuhao panted heavily and growled, "Do you admit defeat?"

"I'll admit defeat to a big-headed ghost, let me go," Wang Dong shouted in anger, struggling forcefully. But Huo Yuhao used all his strength, even invoking his soul power, making it not easy for Wang Dong to break free without using his martial soul.

"Are you not acknowledging your defeat? If I had used a knife just now, you would already be dead," Huo Yuhao growled back, undaunted. At this moment, his body was in close contact with Wang Dong's, and he was somewhat surprised to find that Wang Dong's body was not only very supple and elastic but also had a warm, soft feel. A boy's body actually emitted a faint, refreshing fragrance, which was very pleasant to smell.

Hearing his words, Wang Dong was stunned, and his resistance weakened. Yes! The pain and dizziness in his head didn't last long, but with the two of them so close, if Huo Yuhao had wanted to harm him, he would have had enough time.

"I admit defeat, get off me," Wang Dong said angrily, his eyes full of defiance and resentment.

However, Huo Yuhao did not let him go immediately. He said coldly, "I can do the five things you mentioned, but not because of your threats, out of respect for a roommate. I know your strength is above mine, and if you use your martial soul, I definitely wouldn't be your match. But remember, if you dare to insult me again, even if you beat me to death, I will at least bite a piece of flesh from you."

Seeing Huo Yuhao's increasingly fierce and almost bloodthirsty gaze, like that of a soul beast, the hatred in Wang Dong's eyes dissipated, replaced by a hint of fear. His opponent was clearly much weaker, but in terms of momentum, he was already completely at a disadvantage.

Huo Yuhao slowly released Wang Dong, stood up, and took a few steps back before turning to walk towards the dormitory.

Wang Dong sat on the ground for a while before getting up and slowly walking towards the dormitory. When he reached the dormitory door, an elderly voice sounded in his ear, "You did indeed lose, not just in the fight, but in your heart as well."

"Why?" Wang Dong turned sharply to look at the old man, his face full of unwillingness. "I am clearly stronger than him. If I wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't even be able to touch me. Why did he win?"

The old man pointed to his heart, "Because of this. He has a fearless heart, and you don't. Not everyone can face death without fear."

Wang Dong was stunned for a moment. After a while, he bowed deeply to the old man, "Grandpa, thank you for enlightening me." With that, he strode towards the dormitory.

Back in the dormitory, Wang Dong saw that Huo Yuhao was already sitting on his wooden bed meditating. He wanted to say something to him but ultimately held back, huffed, and tidied his bed.

Compared to Huo Yuhao's meager setup, Wang Dong's bed was covered with thick fur mats, made from the pelts of some soul beast, looking both thick and soft. There were also soft cotton blankets. His luggage had already filled his side of the cabinet, and there were many items on the table. However, Wang Dong seemed too lazy to tidy up, pulling the blanket over his head and going to sleep in a huff.

For the next two days, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong ignored each other, each doing their own thing. What surprised Wang Dong was that, except for meals, Huo Yuhao was almost always in a state of cultivation. He could vaguely sense the strength of Huo Yuhao's soul power, and the more he felt it, the more incredible it seemed. How could he, with his strength, have won over me?

Finally, the new year's enrollment was over, and the new student dormitory building became lively. Although each room was not large, it was a two-person room. Outside was lively, but the dormitory had excellent soundproofing.

Huo Yuhao had been continuously cultivating these past few days. The battle with Wang Dong had been a great inspiration to him. The reason he could defeat his opponent was precisely because of the move he had learned after being enlightened by the Heavenly Dream Ice Worm.

The Ice Worm was not a powerful soul beast, and the four skills granted by the million-year-old Heavenly Dream Ice Worm were not particularly strong. They were mental detection, mental sharing, mental interference, and soul impact.

Huo Yuhao was more proficient with the first two skills and had already verified their effectiveness with Bei Bei. Mental interference was a ranged skill that could affect all life forms with mental fluctuations within a thirty-meter radius centered on Huo Yuhao's body. However, the interference was not strong, and at his current level, it could only cause a momentary mental lapse. Moreover, he could only maintain this skill for less than three seconds, which consumed much more soul power than the first two skills.

Soul impact was the only slightly offensive ability among the four skills, being a single-target skill. Therefore, its attack power was somewhat stronger than the group mental interference, but not by much. The reason Huo Yuhao could use it to defeat Wang Dong in their battle was that he had fused the Purple Extreme Demon Eye ability into the soul impact. The effect was better than expected. Of course, this was also because Wang Dong was caught off guard. If he had been prepared, the soul impact would have been much less effective.

Regardless, with these four mental skills, Huo Yuhao had finally taken on the雏形 of a control-type soul master. However, the eldest brother had once told him that in the first year of the new students, there were no divisions, and everything had to be endured through the first year.

"Hey, classes start today, are you just going to sit here like an idiot?" Wang Dong's voice startled Huo Yuhao out of his thoughts. He had just finished breakfast and was about to continue cultivating.

"Classes start now?" Huo Yuhao asked subconsciously. This was the first time they had spoken since their fight.

Wang Dong didn't even look at him and said coolly, "In about half an hour."

"Oh." Huo Yuhao responded and closed his eyes to meditate. After these days of effort, he had become more proficient with the Profound Heaven Technique. With half an hour, he could complete one cycle of the Profound Heaven Technique, advancing his soul power by a tiny bit.

Wang Dong, hearing no further response, turned to look at Huo Yuhao and saw that he had started meditating again. He couldn't help but mutter, "What a lunatic." With that, he turned and walked out of the dormitory. For two days, he had never seen Huo Yuhao lie down to sleep.

The white teaching building's main door was open, and the new students, dressed in white school uniforms with the green monster symbol of Shrek Academy on their left chest, filed in one by one.

Students from different grades wore different colored uniforms, just like the colors of their teaching buildings.

When Huo Yuhao rushed to the new student teaching building, the bell was just ringing. He quickly dashed inside and saw the sign for Class 1 in the first classroom on the left on the first floor. Without hesitation, he rushed in.
