Chapter 42
Huo Yuhao was initially happy because he had reached an agreement with Mu En, and he felt that he could finally have someone protecting him, which would allow him to act more boldly within Shrek Academy.
These days, it's rare to even get to the most expensive window in the cafeteria to start choosing your dishes.
At this price point, there's an unusually large selection of dishes to choose from, including a variety of nourishing delicacies that make it difficult to choose. Unfortunately, the prices aren't exactly attractive, so Huo Yuhao can only opt for the most cost-effective option.
Huo Yuhao felt a little guilty thinking about how he had been constantly pushing his body to its limits in exchange for cultivation talent.
Hoping to replenish his depleted qi and blood and vitality through food, Huo Yuhao finally ordered a stewed beef dish to replenish qi and blood, which was said to be made from a bovine soul beast with extremely vigorous qi and blood, and a vegetarian dish that was said to be made from a hundred-year-old plant-type soul beast and could replenish vitality.
Although this meal alone would cost dozens of gold soul coins, Huo Yuhao decided to swipe his card decisively because it was to replenish his body.
The taste was beyond Huo Yuhao's expectations. Even with just simple boiling, the pure, natural, and pollution-free ingredients still had a freshness that ordinary seasonings could not match.
The vegetarian dish, in particular, made from some unknown plant, was exceptionally crisp and refreshing, with an indescribable sweetness.
This beef has a faint fishy smell, which is bad enough, but the freshness can at least mask the fishy smell. Why is it so hard to chew?
After eating half a bowl, Huo Yuhao felt his chewing muscles were about to stiffen.
No wonder beef is the only dish among so many that is unlimited; even low-level Soul Masters can't eat as much as they want.
While eating, Huo Yuhao sorted out the original plot in his mind. Thinking about the Soul Ascension Pill he was about to get, Huo Yuhao chewed the beef with even more gusto.
However, Huo Yuhao's smile soon faded.
Not for any other reason than the dozen or so bowls of rice placed next to Wang Dong...
"Are you a pig? Eating so much?" Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong with some concern.
Wang Dong probably ate hundreds of gold soul coins for this meal... Damn it, I should have known better than to treat him.
"You're the pig!" Wang Dong finally raised his head, having already swallowed the last bite of meat.
Wang Dong slumped back in his chair, stroking his slightly protruding belly with a hint of satisfaction.
It's rare for this money-grubbing guy to be generous like this, so we have to eat our money's worth... *burp*.
"You'll die from eating so much!"
This morning's meal cost Huo Yuhao one-tenth of his total assets. How could Huo Yuhao not feel the pinch?
Even if he sold grilled fish, it would take Huo Yuhao more than a month to earn back his money.
"What are you planning to do later?" Having eaten and drunk his fill, Huo Yuhao decided to continue advancing the plot. "Since it's still early, how about we go for another cultivation session?"
"Give me a break. You're going back to cultivation again. A string stretched too tight will break, and besides, you just broke through to level thirteen, so your soul power is still a bit unstable. Let it settle down first."
"It's time to relax, and we should really relax. Let's go for a walk by Poseidon Lake and unwind."
The two left the cafeteria, bypassed the freshman teaching building, and walked east along the south side of Shrek Square. Soon they arrived at the lakeside path.
As they walked through the woods beside the path, the shimmering Poseidon Lake came into view, and at the same time, a gentle mist mixed with fresh air rushed towards them.
The Poseidon Lake before me doesn't look like an artificial lake at all. The water is incredibly clear, a pure, deep, and gentle blue. On its blue, satin-like surface, gentle ripples undulate like the bright, sparkling eyes of a young girl. It reflects the blue sky and white clouds, as well as the shady green trees along the lakeshore.
"So beautiful!" Wang Dong couldn't help but take a deep breath and stretch his body.
Looking at the beautiful scenery before him, Huo Yuhao also felt pleased with the sight.
But I can't help but recall the gossip I ate on Tieba in my past life—
The description of the scenery of Hai Shen Lake by Gong Chang is inspired by an article in a primary school textbook.
At the time, Huo Yuhao thought, "Damn, that's so unfair!"
I only realized it after I did it myself—
Wow, it smells amazing! .JPG
As Huo Yuhao strolled around Poseidon Lake, his gaze remained fixed on the lake's surface, seemingly admiring the scenery, but in reality, he was looking for a signal—a signal that an opportunity had appeared.
"Sister Tianmeng," Huo Yuhao said in his heart.
"What's wrong now?!" Tianmeng's voice was filled with morning grumpiness, clearly indicating that she was on the verge of exploding.
It was obvious that Tianmeng hadn't expected that Huo Yuhao would wake her up again in less than half a day.
"Um, unless the attack is about to hit me, Sister Tianmeng, please don't make a move yet."
"Huh?" This was the first time Tianmeng had ever heard someone make such a bizarre request.
At that moment, Tianmeng also noticed the figure rushing towards her on the lake and was ready to make a move, but then Huo Yuhao said this to her.
"I saw this scene some time ago, so I made some preparations in advance. So, Sister Tianmeng, if you don't want to make a move, then don't."
Hopefully, that test with Mu En will have a miraculous effect. Although Tianmeng can also stop Ma Xiaotao, it would be a pity to put such a useful person into a deep sleep.
In particular, there are some techniques related to mental strength that can be learned from Tianmeng.
Huo Yuhao has only been in this world for a short time, and he is completely ignorant of many things that are common sense in this world.
There is a great need for a guide in the direction of cultivation.
Soon, Huo Yuhao saw the scene he wanted to see—
On the distant surface of Poseidon Lake, a red figure was speeding across the water at an astonishing pace, kicking up bursts of mist.
"This senior looks really strong! Look, he can run on the lake without even releasing his martial spirit. You know, that requires extremely high control over the body and soul power!"
Seeing Huo Yuhao stop and stare at the lake, Wang Dong finally noticed the figure and excitedly analyzed the situation for Huo Yuhao.
The red figure arrived incredibly fast. In the short time they were talking, it had already come within a hundred meters of the shore, yet it showed no signs of slowing down.
Even the oblivious Wang Dong could tell that something seemed amiss.
A terrifying heatwave swept over them instantly, and Wang Dong's eyes showed horror.
Wang Dong clearly sensed an indescribable aura of madness emanating from that senior student, something that a normal person shouldn't be exhibiting. Had this senior student lost control of his soul power?!
"not good!"
Azure wings unfurled behind Wang Dong, who grabbed Huo Yuhao, who seemed stunned, and tried to fly into the air.
