Chapter 40 - 40. Iceworm's Wrath

[Fate of Mu En, Huo Yuhao, and Shrek Academy rewritten, +100,000 fortune points!]

This was because Mu En had consumed the Life Essence, extending his life by ten more years.

But this wasn't just about living longer—it was ten years of restored peak condition!

Unlike before, when he was frail and sickly, prone to dozing off at random times…

Now he was absolutely energetic, capable of going 24 hours without rest.

The most direct sign was—when Huo Yuhao finished his nighttime dual cultivation and, as usual, went to greet Mu En in the morning, the latter was no longer half-asleep.

Instead, with bright, spirited eyes, he was the first to greet him.

"Go wash up first, come back a little later."

"Yes, Teacher."

Huo Yuhao replied, but couldn't help glancing more at Mu En's condition.

Though his aura was still very plain, the heavy deathly aura of old age had completely vanished.

Huo Yuhao quickly finished freshening up.

When he returned, Mu En immediately pulled him over, pressing a storage ring into his palm.

"Inside are cultivation resources I've prepared for you—ten-thousand-year Vajra Arhat Fruit, soul power recovery pills, and an extra soul bone from my ninth soul ring."

"Also, once you reach rank 20, I'll take you to a certain treasure ground where you'll find a great opportunity."

"How are your insights into Sovereign's Dominion?"

[Fate of Huo Yuhao rewritten, +2,500 fortune points!]

The fortune points gained weren't "much."

Because the resources Mu En gifted had not yet been digested into Yuhao's strength.

But it was foreseeable that this would eventually convert into a massive amount of fortune points!

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's mind was a bit hazy.

He subconsciously expressed his understanding of Sovereign's Dominion, but in his heart, he was thinking of another matter—Teacher's last three rings were all red.

This ninth ring's extra soul bone… that meant it was at least 100,000 years old!

This…

A hundred-thousand-year soul bone, just like that, given to him?!

Excessive!

Thanks to his spiritual power's multitasking ability, Mu En didn't notice Yuhao's distraction.

Instead, he secretly praised the boy's unshakable mindset.

He then began explaining the essence of Sovereign's Dominion, soon pulling Huo Yuhao deep into comprehension.

Even when Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao arrived later, Yuhao didn't notice.

Once Yuhao fully entered an epiphany state, Mu En raised his hand and set up a soul power barrier, then beckoned Wang Dong over.

After carefully learning about his situation, he began giving targeted guidance.

This made Xiao Xiao, watching from a distance, turn green with envy.

This was the Dragon God Douluo!

The very peak existence of the continent, giving personal instruction!

Pity that her own teacher, ever since taking her as a disciple, had never appeared again.

She was completely being raised like livestock.

Comparison truly was the thief of joy…

Mu En guided them for two full days.

After ensuring he had left them with enough substance, he finally rose from his reclining chair.

"For the next while, I have matters to deal with."

"If you have any issues, go to Shaozhe and the others."

"Yuhao, cultivate well. Once you reach rank 20, I'll return."

——That demigod had only granted him this much time.

Hopefully, his luck would be good enough to find it. Otherwise, depending on what came up, he might have to risk his life.

"Teacher, rest assured! By the time you return, I'll definitely have comprehended Sovereign's Dominion!" Huo Yuhao declared with determination.

Wang Dong opened his mouth, wanting to say the same, but held back.

He too was practicing the prerequisite skills for Sovereign's Dominion, and though his progress was far faster than ordinary people, it was still only that much.

Mu En smiled. "Xiao Dong, if you have trouble, you can ask Yuhao. He's mastered enough of the prerequisites to guide you."

"I know already!" Wang Dong snapped angrily. "Just go already if you're busy! So naggy!"

Mu En laughed heartily, mood in high spirits.

Of course, it was only Wang Dong who dared speak to him like that.

Even someone like Yan Shaozhe no longer dared.

With a flicker of his figure, Mu En vanished.

Wang Dong puffed his cheeks in irritation, moving off to cultivate alone.

Huo Yuhao found it very amusing.

He could already guess why Wang Dong was so prickly—ever since they met, he, the so-called "low-level trash," had been suppressing Wang Dong in every aspect.

Now Wang Dong even had to ask him for help.

For someone so proud, it was only natural he'd find it hard to swallow.

Inside the spiritual world.

"Foolish little Yuhao," Zhuge Lan shook his head. "You only grasped the first layer, you didn't understand the true point at all!"

"Well, he's only eleven. Not realizing Wang Dong is crossdressing makes sense. Naturally, he wouldn't think deeper," Electrolux commented fairly.

"Hey!" Tianmeng Iceworm snapped impatiently. "Yuhao just absorbed a thirty-thousand-year Vajra Arhat Fruit, and his Muscle Transformation Manual progress has already reached halfway. How has the fortune point balance not reached 100,000 yet?"

How could it not have?

Current balance: 240,000 fortune points.

After splitting, that was still 120,000 fortune points.

——Plus savings: 870,000 fortune points!

And it was still flowing in steadily.

The main sources were the spread of scientific body refinement, the fame of the Holy Flame Meow Meow Sect, and the Academy distributing various hidden benefits.

For example, right now outside the dorm, there was even a Soul Sage standing guard.

This was arranged the day Zhuge Lan appeared, acting as a "protector," tasked only with safeguarding Yuhao's safety.

Add in the yet-to-be-digested resources, the three immortal herbs about to arrive…

Not only had the 550,000 fortune points been earned back, there was a surplus.

But Zhuge Lan said nothing for a long time, making Tianmeng Iceworm anxious.

"You promised next time for sure!"

"I want to awaken spiritual power!"

"You better not pull another trick!"

Zhuge Lan didn't refuse, instead smiling slyly—

"No problem, I can let you awaken."

"But Yuhao has the Vajra Arhat Fruit as support. The first stage of the Muscle Transformation Manual will soon be complete. The second stage requires 95,000 fortune points to unlock."

"Plus, his movement techniques and close combat need strengthening."

"After the freshman assessment, he'll need to dual-train in soul tools as well. That'll be another expense."

"Right now, there's only 120,000 fortune points. Look at this massive hole…"

Zhuge Lan sighed and feigned distress.

Watching this, Tianmeng Iceworm ground his teeth in fury!

It was obvious now!

This bastard was deliberately finding excuses to avoid giving him spiritual awakening!

The reasons didn't even matter anymore. He just couldn't bear it!

"Damn it, I'll fight you!!!"

Tianmeng Iceworm transformed into a dragon, trying to coil around and crush Zhuge Lan like a noodle.

But Zhuge Lan merely unfolded his spiritual power—Tianmeng couldn't budge him at all.

"What the hell?! How is your spiritual power this strong?!" Tianmeng roared in impotent rage.

"Before appearing, I spent 10,000 fortune points to accelerate spiritual power conversion. I'm roughly equivalent to a three-ring Soul Elder now, with bonuses pushing me to about Soul King combat strength," Zhuge Lan said casually.

Tianmeng's eyes turned bloodshot.

He was willing to spend fortune points on himself so freely, but when it came to helping him awaken, suddenly it was all excuses?!

"Die!!!"

Zhuge Lan didn't even move, letting Tianmeng thrash about.

It wasn't that he was picking on him—Yuhao's balance truly wasn't enough yet.

Yes…

Absolutely not because he enjoyed watching Tianmeng Iceworm's powerless rage.

Ke ke ke ke ke—

After a round of chaos, ignoring Tianmeng's death glare, Zhuge Lan began creating something he had already prepared—
