Chapter 63

At this rate, Hu Yuhao was confident that he could break through to level twenty by the end of his first year, thus obtaining his second soul ring. Tian Meng had once said that after acquiring the second soul ring, his strength would make a leap, especially his Ice-type soul power would truly have its own abilities.

Hu Yuhao was looking forward to that moment. When that time came, he would be able to fight alongside Wang Dong and help him even more.

Time always passed quickly during meditation, and soon it was evening. As usual, Hu Yuhao went to the cafeteria to buy a prepared bluefish and headed straight for the school gate.

The crowd at the school gate was noticeably smaller today, perhaps because of the upcoming freshman assessment, most of the freshmen felt a sense of urgency and stayed in their dormitories to practice.

However, Hu Yuhao's business was not affected by this. When he arrived, the queue had already formed, and the person at the front was none other than Xu Sanshi.

"Clang—" Xu Sanshi flicked a silver coin to Hu Yuhao and said, "No change needed, give me a big one."

Hu Yuhao chuckled and said, "Brother Xu, you're really here rain or shine!"

The initial unpleasantness between them had long passed, and they had become quite familiar with each other. After getting to know each other, Hu Yuhao found that although Xu Sanshi was not as gentle as Bei Bei and had a somewhat irritable temper, he was very warm-hearted and straightforward.

Xu Sanshi laughed and said, "Who can resist your fish? I can't enjoy my dinner if I don't have this every night. I've eaten a lot of grilled fish before, but no one can control the heat as well as you. Even Jiang Nan Nan praised your grilled fish. By the way, I heard you have a freshman assessment coming up?"

Hu Yuhao nodded and said, "Yes!"

Xu Sanshi said, "You must do your best and not get eliminated. Otherwise, I won't have anywhere to eat grilled fish." He still didn't know that Hu Yuhao had a hand in Bei Bei's victory over him. He only thought Hu Yuhao had average talent and was just good at grilling fish. In fact, Hu Yuhao's reputation for grilling fish at Shrek Academy far exceeded his actual strength.

"Xiao Xu." At that moment, a clear and cold voice suddenly sounded. Hearing this voice, Xu Sanshi shivered, and Hu Yuhao saw a hint of fear in his eyes, but more so, helplessness.

The other customers in the queue also fell silent instantly.

A woman walked out of the school gate and approached slowly. The crowd naturally made way for her, not even daring to look at her, all lowering their heads. The effect was even more pronounced than when Jiang Nan Nan appeared.

Hu Yuhao looked up and saw a woman in red, with a slender and well-proportioned figure. The first thing that caught the eye was her somewhat exaggerated bust, firm and high, almost bursting out...

Her waist was very slim, and the curve only widened abruptly at the hips. Her legs were straight and round, exuding a strong sense of youthful vitality.

However, her face was covered with a red veil, but from her eyebrows, it was clear that she was a beauty. Her pale pink eyes easily gave people a soul-stirring feeling. Fortunately, her gaze was cold, which slightly suppressed the bone-chilling allure of her eyes.

Xu Sanshi clearly knew her, and he turned around with a stiff neck, not looking at her eyes, slightly lowering his head, and said, "Sister Xiao Tao."

This made Hu Yuhao even more surprised. Xu Sanshi, with his fiery and rebellious nature, was a fifth-year student and had a higher status in the outer academy than Bei Bei. Due to his strong talent, many sixth-year students even respected him. Even teachers wouldn't treat him like this! Who was this woman in red? For some reason, Hu Yuhao and Wang Dong, who was beside him, felt a bit familiar with this woman.

The woman in red glanced at Hu Yuhao's grill and slowly walked to Xu Sanshi's side, saying, "Xiao Xu, are you here to eat grilled fish?"

Xu Sanshi nodded and said, "Yes! Hu Yuhao's grilled fish is extraordinary and very delicious."

A hint of curiosity flashed in the woman's eyes, and she said to Hu Yuhao, "I'll have one to try." She wasn't some ethereal fairy; she almost always practiced, so she was naturally interested in new things.

Hu Yuhao subconsciously said, "Sorry, I only sell thirty fish a day, and the queue is already full. Please come earlier tomorrow."

He had said the same thing to many people. But this time, as soon as he finished speaking, almost everyone in the queue suddenly looked up, their faces filled with fear, including Xu Sanshi.

To Hu Yuhao's great surprise, the people who had been queuing behind Xu Sanshi scattered in a hurry, leaving the place empty in an instant.

The woman in red smiled and said, "Alright, now no one is queuing. I think I can eat now."

Xu Sanshi kept giving Hu Yuhao meaningful looks. Hu Yuhao wasn't unreasonable and nodded, continuing to grill the fish seriously.

Wang Dong, however, was not pleased and said indignantly, "Who are you, and why are you disrupting our business?"

The woman in red raised her right hand, revealing slender fingers. On her right index finger was a large ruby, a vivid and extremely beautiful blood-red color. With a flash of light, a handful of gold soul coins appeared in her hand, and she handed them to Wang Dong, saying, "I'll take all the grilled fish today."

Wang Dong was not one to be polite, and he took the gold soul coins without a word. Although the woman in red had a terrifying presence that scared away many people, she didn't seem unreasonable. Moreover, he felt a vague sense of unease and a hint of fear towards her.

Hu Yuhao honestly said, "You don't need to pay so much. My grilled fish costs five copper soul coins each."

The woman in red seemed unwilling to argue further and said coolly, "Consider it a deposit. If I want to eat in the future, you won't charge me."

"Alright." Hu Yuhao nodded and continued grilling the fish carefully.

The woman in red, who seemed to be looking for Xu Sanshi, now ignored him and focused intently on Hu Yuhao's grilling.

A moment later, she let out a light exclamation, "The heat control is so perfect. Are you a fire-type soul power user?" She herself was an expert in fire, and she could clearly see how Hu Yuhao skillfully adjusted the position of the fish to control the heat.

Hu Yuhao shook his head.

A short while later, the first batch of four grilled fish was ready. Since there was no one else today, Hu Yuhao gave two to the woman in red and two to Xu Sanshi. He actually bought more than thirty bluefish every day, and the extra ones were for Tang Ya and Wang Dong.
