Chapter 29

~8 min read 1,470 words

Huo Yuhao followed the Enrollment Handbook to find the Dormitory Building he was in, and exchanged a glance with Gu Yue Na beside him, who was also walking while holding the handbook, then looked around.

It was situated in a secluded corner of the campus, surrounded by towering trees, the environment tranquil and quiet. The Dormitory Building's exterior was simple and elegant, the walls mainly a light beige, paired with dark brown wooden window frames.

Even though it was the first day of school, besides them there were no other students near this Dormitory Building; clearly, this Dormitory Building currently had only the two of them as tenants.

These were Single Dormitories, or rather Teacher Dormitories, not the Four-Person Dormitory Buildings where most students resided.

Gu Yue Na blinked, turned her head to look at Huo Yuhao, "Special treatment for us?"

"No, or at least not entirely." Huo Yuhao shook his head, "There will probably be more people moving into this Dormitory Building later; we just reserved in advance."

It should be similar to the Original Work's Class Zero; Yu Zhen probably wants to concentrate Resources to cultivate some exceptionally talented students; the two of them simply enjoyed various preferential treatments first because of their talent and origins, and the Single Dormitories before them were one of them.

Gu Yue Na heard this and glanced at her handbook, "Mine is 202, see you later?"

"... I'm 201, right next to you."

After Huo Yuhao finished speaking, he walked toward the Dormitory Building; Gu Yue Na paused, then followed.

So they were neighbors... made sense, with only two people, how else could they be arranged?

The first floor had the Meditation Room and supporting Testing Rooms; only from the second floor up were the rooms used for living.

Standing at his room's Doorway, Huo Yuhao opened the door and examined it carefully.

The Dormitory room layout was reasonable, with good lighting. Through the Window, one could see the green scenery of the campus outside. The room was furnished simply; a spacious Desk sat before the window, a Bookshelf against the wall, and the bed beside it.

Naturally it couldn't compare to the lodging the Spirit Pagoda arranged for him, but compared to Ten Thousand Years Ago when he infiltrated various Academies to study, the conditions were much better.

Huo Yuhao walked to the Bookshelf, took out the various books he had prepared from his Storage Ring, picked out some that weren't very important, and placed them on it one by one.

Next he took out some daily necessities prepared in advance, Civilian Soul Tools.

After spending some time arranging things, Huo Yuhao changed into the Donghai Academy School Uniform, read for a while, and then a knock came from outside the room.

When Huo Yuhao opened the door, Gu Yue Na stood at the doorway, raised her head, and looked at Huo Yuhao with bright, spirited eyes, saying:

"Want to go check out the Canteen together? This is my first time at an Academy."

Huo Yuhao looked at Gu Yue Na, who had changed into a School Uniform and seemed to genuinely be here to experience Academy life, his Mood Complex.

From the moment she entered the Academy, she seemed to have forgotten both their Identities, communicating with him purely as a student... although this was indeed more relaxed, it still felt a bit strange.

Come to think of it, according to Teacher Hua, Feng Huang Douluo sent Gu Yue Na over initially to avoid the Headquarters' troubles and keep those investigating his Identity away; this one seems to have really come... to attend school?

Silver Dragon King, you've already joined the Spirit Pagoda, not doing proper business, is coming to an ordinary school really okay?

Thinking this, Huo Yuhao nodded lightly, "Alright."

The Star Dou Great Forest and humans currently actually had no irreconcilable Contradictions. Since Ten Thousand Years Ago, the Star Dou Great Forest's area had never decreased, vastly different from the Original Work where only a Core Area remained; Gu Yue Na actually had no need to walk the path of the Myriad Beasts Platform to End Humanity.

It was just that Gu Yue Na's strength made it hard for him to relax, always wanting to keep a few Precautions as a backup. But in daily interaction, maintaining a Normal Attitude was fine.

And seeing Huo Yuhao agree, Gu Yue Na secretly breathed a Sigh of Relief.

It seemed she hadn't misunderstood; this God King was indeed Enjoying Life, Intending to live as an ordinary Soul Master.

Even in the future he would probably make his way as a Spirit Pagoda Core Disciple, opposing the Abyssal Plane. Unless necessary, he would not reveal his true face.

In that case, ordinary interaction, drawing closer was good; no need to Hurry.

On the way to the Canteen, Huo Yuhao saw two youths walking toward them; hearing their Conversation, his expression shifted slightly.

"Thank you, Xie Xie. If you hadn't stopped us from fighting in the Dormitory, I might have smashed more things and owed more money. When I have money, I'll treat you to a Meal." Tang Wu Lin thanked the youth beside him.

"Treat me? I'm afraid you'd eat me too. I've never seen anyone eat like you; you just took 80 Meat Buns, right? No wonder your strength is so great... Also, just thank me, don't say my name, it sounds weird!"

Xie Xie gave Tang Wu Lin a cold, stern glance.

Tang Wu Lin laughed, "Okay, thank you."

"I said, don't keep calling my name!"

"..." Tang Wu Lin looked at Xie Xie quite Speechlessly; the latter also Reacted, his cold expression gone, awkwardly averting his gaze, secretly annoyed.

He just said this name was bad; sooner or later he'd change it!!!

'Tang Wu Lin and Xie Xie...'

Huo Yuhao Glanced at the calm Gu Yue Na, quickly Withdrawing his gaze.

Tang Wu Lin stopped looking at Xie Xie, turned his head to look straight ahead, and happened to see two classmates.

Both their appearances could only be called ordinary, at most described as clear and refined, yet each possessed a unique temperament.

"Hello." Tang Wu Lin, not acting like a pushover, took the opportunity to greet them.

Although today he also encountered unpleasant things and smashed some Academy property, needing to spend money for Compensation, with a classmate helping him and the Academy teachers being understanding, willing to give him extended time for Compensation.

All in all, Tang Wu Lin felt the city had Bad People, but even more Good People!

"Hello."

Huo Yuhao smiled faintly; Gu Yue Na nodded coldly, counting as a greeting, and they passed each other.

One doesn't hit a smiling face; Xie Xie was about to follow and greet them, but seeing Gu Yue Na's Expression, his movement Paused, he pursed his lips, "So cold, eighty percent her talent's not bad, wonder which Class she'll be assigned to."

"Eh? Class Assignment?" Tang Wu Lin blanked, "What do you mean?"

"This School divides Classes by Talent; I'm definitely Class One, as for you..."

Thinking of Tang Wu Lin possessing the Spirit Pagoda's Spatial Soul Tool, Xie Xie said uncertainly, "We'll see tomorrow; I don't know either."

"Oh." Tang Wu Lin's expression fell.

His talent was bad... hope he could be assigned to a good Class.

When they were far away, Gu Yue Na saw Huo Yuhao withdraw his gaze from Tang Wu Lin and suddenly asked via Transmission: "Your Excellency, is the God Core on him?"

Erqing Chengxian — a Soul Elder couldn't possibly do it, but for her, No Difficulty.

Huo Yuhao was not surprised, Lightly Nodded.

He had looked at Gu Yue Na earlier precisely to Remind her on purpose; since it was Mutual Restraint, it was naturally best for both sides to know of the other's Existence, lest this one fall into a Trap.

Seeing him nod, Gu Yue Na frowned.

From her previous communication with Huo Yuhao, she had learned that the Golden Dragon King still had a God Core left behind, and the person beside her knew the God Core's location, yet did not go take it.

What did this represent? It represented that the God Core was on the Douluo Continent, and might even be in the area near Donghai City.

Just now she had not sensed the Golden Dragon King Bloodline from Tang Wu Lin, but the conversation between the two of them — strange appetite, great strength. Combined with Huo Yuhao's inexplicable action of looking towards her, it gave rise to this imagination, which was why she asked.

And who was the existence capable of sealing the Golden Dragon King God Core into an ordinary person's body?

It could only be one of the Five Great God Kings of the God Realm!
