Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao increased the speed of the flying soul guide.
Haotian Castle, third floor, in Wang Dong’s room.
"Mmm--I slept well."
Wang Dong sat up from the bed and stretched lazily.
She had just experienced a long dream, in which she seemed to have had an extremely unforgettable adventure, but she could not remember the specific content at all.
She just felt extremely refreshed after waking up. This feeling was like she had found her true self.
"Xiaodong, you're awake." Niu Tian pushed the door open gently and greeted with a smile.
"Good morning, Dad." Wang Dong jumped out of bed and asked, "Where's Yuhao?"
Niu Tian paused for a moment and put on an expression as if he was trying to recall something: "Who is Yuhao?"
"It's my roommate that I often mentioned to you." Wang Dong said casually.
Niu Tian smiled calmly: "Your roommate is not in Haotian Castle, why are you asking where he is as soon as you get up?"
Wang Dong's body was obviously shaken. He lowered his head and blinked his big pink-blue eyes. Confusion was written all over his handsome face.
"Yeah, why did I suddenly think of him?"
She kept talking to herself.
Niu Tian chuckled and gently stroked her head: "Okay, stop imagining. Get ready to wash up and have breakfast."
"Yes, Daddy."
Wang Dong followed Niu Tian and walked out the door.
"Come to think of it, I don't know what level Yuhao is now. I haven't seen him for a long time."
……
Mingde Hall, underground base, in the hall master's office.
Jing Hongchen rarely enjoys a day or two of leisure time, with no official business to deal with and no heavy research.
He is in a very happy mood at the moment, because with the help of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, many eighth-level soul instructors in Mingde Hall can temporarily break through to the ninth level.
The original few ninth-level soul guide elders could focus on the research and development of new soul guides, and delegate the complex, time-consuming and laborious work of making ninth-level soul guides to the eighth-level soul guides.
The temporary breakthrough not only increased Mingdetang's reserve of soul guides, but also accumulated very valuable practical experience for them.
Especially the ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shells. This kind of killing weapon has extremely high manufacturing requirements, and the cost of making one is far beyond the comparison of other ninth-level soul guide weapons.
bang bang bang-
"Come in."
After the knocking on the door stopped, Huo Yuhao stepped into the office.
Jing Hongchen glanced at the newcomer and said, "Yuhao, you're back? Come, sit down."
Huo Yuhao sat down generously: "Master Hongchen, you are looking for me?"
Jing Hongchen asked in a casual tone: "Jiayi reported to me that you left the academy. Where did you go?"
He exchanged glances with the smiling Huo Yuhao, feeling a little surprised.
The feeling Huo Yuhao gave him now was somewhat different from before. His still confident smile seemed to reveal something called ambition.
“I wandered around Mingdu for a few days.” Huo Yuhao made up an excuse.
"Mingdu is so big, you can't visit it all in your lifetime." Jing Hongchen took a sip of tea. He finally had time to put aside his official duties and research for a while, so he wanted to find someone to chat with. "Where did you visit?"
"Minghua Street, Tianyue Plaza..." Huo Yuhao mentioned several famous place names in Mingdu.
"Well, they are all very prosperous places." Jing Hongchen did not suspect anything.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao asked, "Master Hongchen, have you heard of Xishui League?"
Jing Hongchen's expression changed, his smile disappeared instantly, and his voice became much higher: "Where did you hear this name?"
Huo Yuhao said: “From what I heard in the past few days, I heard that they are hiring soul mentors at a high price.”
Jing Hongchen warned: "This force is very dangerous, the farther you stay away from them the better."
Huo Yuhao pretended to be ignorant and said, “Why? I heard that they are also engaged in the soul guide business. They should have dealings with Mingde Hall, right?”
"And considering the size of Mingde Hall, would they be afraid of them?"
Jing Hongchen's face sank, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Since you have heard this name from others, you should know that this is an underground force that cannot be put on the stage."
Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement.
"They can be said to be one of the largest underground forces in Mingdu. Of course, to achieve this size, they must have someone in the royal family to look after them. It is inevitable that our Mingde Hall has some connection with them."
"But it is precisely because it is an underground force that it is more dangerous than Mingde Hall."
“Haha, almost all the people in Mingdu know that if they offend Mingde Hall, I will not bother to take action against them, but if they offend these underground forces, I am afraid they will not see the sun the next day.”
"Recruiting soul mentors at a high price? Once you get involved with these underground forces, that money will be your life-saving money."
Jing Hongchen frowned and shook his head: "That is to say, you have been staying in the academy and don't know the situation in Mingdu."
Huo Yuhao wanted to ask more questions, but Jing Hongchen interrupted him rudely:
"I'll remind you one last time. You're still young. Don't get involved with these underground forces. Wait until you're strong enough."
“Okay, thank you, Hall Master Hongchen, for your warning.” Huo Yuhao did not ask any more questions.
When Jing Hongchen heard Huo Yuhao asking about Xishui League today, half of his good mood disappeared.
As the head of Mingde Hall, he certainly knew that Xishui League was not only an underground force, but also an industry of Holy Spirit Church. Moreover, there were frequent private exchanges between Mingde Hall and Xishui League.
He didn't want to have anything to do with the Holy Spirit Church, but he had to obey the royal order.
Jing Hongchen felt angry.
As the youngest ninth-level soul engineer in the Sun-Moon Empire, he was very confident. He led the Sun-Moon Empire to conquer the other three kingdoms with soul guides and let the light of the sun and moon illuminate the entire continent.
But he was very puzzled that the Sun-Moon Emperor wanted to connect with an evil soul master organization like the Holy Spirit Church.
No normal person is willing to deal with an evil soul master, and Jing Hongchen is no exception.
The door of the office was suddenly opened, and a seventh-level soul master walked in and said respectfully: "Master, that gentleman is here again."
Jing Hongchen frowned somewhat unhappily and cursed inwardly, saying what he said was really what he wanted.
The adult the other party was talking about was the Ten Thousand Souls Douluo of the Holy Spirit Church.
"Let him wait."
"Yes."
The seventh-level soul instructor left the room.
Huo Yuhao was about to stand up: "Master Hongchen, I won't bother you anymore."
“No rush.” Jing Hongchen spoke to keep Huo Yuhao.
"Master, do you have any other instructions?"
Jing Hongchen pondered for a long time and asked, "Huo Yuhao, what level are you now?"
"Fifty-six." Huo Yuhao answered truthfully.
Jing Hongchen was stunned for a moment. If he didn’t know Huo Yuhao well, he would have almost thought that Huo Yuhao had chosen to take drugs.
He clearly remembered that it had been less than a year since Huo Yuhao broke through the fifth ring.
He said in a deep voice: "You should work hard to cultivate and strive to reach level 60 as soon as possible. When the time comes, this hall master will personally take you to obtain the sixth spirit ring."
“Okay.” Huo Yuhao responded and left the office.
However, after leaving the room, he hid himself again and leaned against a nearby wall.
He also sensed the presence of Ten Thousand Souls Douluo.
Wanhun Douluo, dressed in a black robe, floated into Jing Hongchen's office like a ghost.
"Master Hongchen, how are you?" Wanhun Douluo laughed hoarsely, "I'm here to ask you to make a defensive soul guide."
Jing Hongchen did not smile in response: "Humph, do you also need defensive soul guides?"
Wanhun Douluo replied: "Some of my subordinates were blind and offended some important person. They were killed without even having the strength to resist."
"But if I had the defensive soul guide produced by your Mingde Hall, I would at least have the power to protect myself, not to mention counterattack."
"Don't worry, I won't be stingy with the gold soul coins."
Jing Hongchen said decisively: "An eighth-level defensive soul guide and a seventh-level defensive soul guide are both top-notch in their class."
Wanhun Douluo was somewhat flattered and said, "Master Hongchen, this is a big deal. I wonder how much you plan to offer?"
Jing Hongchen said coldly: "I don't want money, bring a soul beast in exchange."
Wanhun Douluo immediately understood his purpose and asked with a smile, "Which hero of Mingde Hall wants to break through, and what kind of attributes and year are required?"
"It must be at least 50,000 years old. As for the attribute..." Jing Hongchen said calmly, "Spiritual."
Wanhun Douluo was obviously stunned for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "Master Hongchen, you are making it difficult for me. Spiritual attribute soul beasts are already rare, and those over 50,000 years old are even rarer."
Jing Hongchen was straightforward and didn't want to waste words: "An evil eye tyrant that is more than 50,000 years old, with pure spiritual attributes, and even better with ice attributes. You will definitely be able to find it."
"The two defensive soul guides can be delivered to you within half a month. As for the Evil Eye Tyrant, I will personally lead people to hunt it down within two years."
Wanhun Douluo weighed the pros and cons for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, Master Hongchen, I agree to this deal."
The transaction was quickly concluded. Jing Hongchen had no intention of seeing him off, and Wanhun Douluo did not want to stay long either, so he quickly left Mingde Hall.
Outside the office, Huo Yuhao, who had been eavesdropping against the wall, also started to leave in silence.
How could he not understand that this was the sixth soul ring prepared for him by Jing Hongchen? Spiritual soul beasts are extremely rare, and the Evil Eye is one of the largest and most powerful species among them.
An evil eye that is more than ten thousand years old can be called an evil eye tyrant. There is no soul beast more suitable as his soul ring.
In the sea of spirit, Tian Meng said excitedly: "Yuhao, that old toad is really good to you. It's a good thing that we don't have to look for the 50,000-year-old evil-eyed tyrant."
"Yes." Huo Yuhao replied softly.
Two years is exactly the time for the next Fighting Spirit Competition, during which time he will definitely be able to break through the sixth ring.
Jing Hongchen knew that spiritual soul beasts were hard to find, so he reserved one for him in advance.
