Chapter 21: Lord Poseidon, the First Pavilion Master
Huo Yuhao didn't believe in the existence of any sovereigns, even if they were god-kings; they were just powerful people.
Why should we feel fear towards a powerful person?
If someone is better than me, I should just respect them; there's no need to be timid or hesitant.
If someone decides a person's life or death without any reason, shouldn't we fight them to the death instead of being afraid?
Huo Yuhao didn't consider himself a particularly resilient person, but he still had some backbone. He wouldn't accept anyone who arbitrarily decided life and death without reason, whether they were human or god.
Huo Yuhao's life motto can be summed up in eight words: repay kindness with kindness, and avenge wrongs with revenge.
Whether it's a god-king or an ordinary person, I'll help those who are good to me and beat those who are bad to me. It's that simple.
Just as Huo Yuhao denied the idea of ruling the world, a powerful force erupted from within him.
The two forces collided violently in an instant, and the entire sky changed color due to the collision.
Huo Yuhao's spiritual power thus stepped into the half-step Divine Origin Realm, and his spiritual power had some characteristics of the Divine Realm.
"Heaven and earth are in harmony." Huo Yuhao murmured the power he had comprehended, and it collided with Mu En's reign of supreme authority in the final round.
If Mu En's dominance can be described as "I am the only one who reigns supreme," then Huo Yuhao's power is one of equality for all beings.
As a green light entered Huo Yuhao's spiritual power through the Eye of the Living Being, Huo Yuhao's momentum gradually overwhelmed Mu En's dominance.
"You are a promising young man. With you in the future of Shrek Academy, I can say that I have done right by my predecessors." Seeing this, Moon withdrew his imposing aura.
"If you go all out, Elder Mu, how can I possibly gain the upper hand? It's all thanks to your leniency," Huo Yuhao replied politely.
If they were at the same level, it would be hard to say which of these two auras would be stronger, but now that there is a huge difference in soul power between Huo Yuhao and Mu En, he is definitely not going to win.
It was only because Mu En was unwilling to engage that Jun Lin Tianxia naturally lacked the strength to follow up, which allowed Huo Yuhao to temporarily gain the advantage.
"Alright, child, now that you have awakened your potential, I will not keep you any longer. Do not neglect your soul power cultivation and advance to the Soul Master level as soon as possible."
"Understood, I won't disturb your sunbathing any longer. I'll go back to my cultivation now."
Huo Yuhao said hello and then went back to the Soul Guidance Laboratory to cultivate his soul power.
Huo Yuhao's soul power had already reached the peak of level 37, and level 38 is just a matter of the next couple of days.
Over the next few days, Huo Yuhao cultivated his soul power while continuing to forge his battle armor.
Having successfully created the first piece, the subsequent production became much easier. In just one week, Huo Yuhao created the remaining ten pieces of battle armor.
With the right arm armor he had initially crafted, he finally completed the full set of One-Line Battle Armor.
After Huo Yuhao put on this one-word battle armor, his soul power fluctuations instantly reached the Soul Emperor level, an increase of more than twenty levels.
Its combat power is estimated to be able to directly confront a Soul Saint with a top-tier Martial Soul.
Huo Yuhao's soul power also broke through to level 38 during the amplification, and he was only two levels away from obtaining his fourth soul ring.
Two days later, Yan Shaozhe finally came to find Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, come with me to the Sea God Pavilion meeting at Shrek Academy. You should already know about the Sea God Pavilion, so I won't go into too much detail."
With that, Yan Shaozhe pulled Huo Yuhao up and flew towards the Sea God Lake.
"The Sea God Pavilion is located in the inner courtyard, so we need to cross the Sea God Lake to get there."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Shaozhe had already led Huo Yuhao to the island in the center of Sea God Lake.
The two arrived at a three-story pavilion.
Huo Yuhao knew they had arrived when he saw the three large characters "Sea God Pavilion" on the pavilion.
"Shao Zhe, bring Yu Hao in."
As soon as they set foot on Seagod Island, Mu En noticed Yan Shaozhe and Huo Yuhao and immediately invited them in to discuss matters.
"Yes, teacher."
Yan Shaozhe responded and pulled Huo Yuhao into the Sea God Pavilion.
In the hall, Mu En sat at the head of the table, Xuan Zi sat to his left, and the other elders took their seats in turn, except for the seat to Mu En's right, which was empty.
Huo Yuhao didn't think much of it and found a place to wait for Mu En to explain the battle armor to the elders.
Huo Yuhao had just stood still when he heard Elder Mu's voice.
"Yuhao, come sit here." Mu En said, pointing to the seat on his right.
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then walked over to Mu En and sat down.
As soon as they sat down, several elders tried to dissuade them, but under Mu En's stern gaze, they all fell silent.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao muttered to himself, "You've really put me in a very difficult position this time. If I don't perform well, you'll be in trouble."
"You're the main character in today's meeting, and you'll likely be in the same situation for a long time to come. Just get used to it sooner rather than later."
As Elder Mu finished speaking with a hint of implication, the other elders all looked at Huo Yuhao with curiosity.
"Alright, I've called everyone here today because I have something important to announce."
"I hereby declare that, from the day I pass away, regardless of whether Huo Yuhao's soul power level is sufficient at the time, he shall immediately succeed as the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, with Xuanzi assisting him in leading Shrek Academy."
Upon hearing Mu En's remarks, even many elders who had always respected Mu En could not help but ask questions.
"Elder Mu, I'm afraid this is not a good idea. Although you can hold on for many more years without any problem, Huo Yuhao's cultivation of the Ultimate Ice is inherently slow. What if he only reaches the Soul Saint level by then? How will he lead Shrek Academy?"
"Indeed, Elder Mu, and this child is only twelve years old. Isn't he too young? If such a decision is made, he probably needs to have a seat in the Sea God Pavilion right now."
"Yes, Mr. Mu, please reconsider."
Even Xuanzi spoke up to advise, "Elder Mu, your decision this time is truly hasty. In a few more years, this child will definitely be qualified to succeed as the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion. Isn't it a bit too early now?"
Yan Shaozhe remained silent. On one hand, he knew Elder Mu well enough that he wouldn't speak without reason.
On the other hand, Huo Yuhao still hasn't been able to understand the ability of his original martial soul to awaken a second time.
"You all underestimate the young people. Yuhao, show the elders your strength in a bit."
"Xuanzi, once Yuhao has concealed himself, as long as you can find him, I will not mention this matter again."
"Then Elder Mu, I'll see what this young man's strength is like." Xuanzi, upon hearing Mu En's words, also became curious and prepared to test Huo Yuhao's abilities.
"Then I will be impolite." With that, Huo Yuhao used his second soul skill, and his figure instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.
