Reborn as Huo Yuhao, but also in Battle Through the Heavens

Chapter 82 The Battle with the Vice Dean

Chapter 82 The Battle with the Vice Dean

"Indeed." Huo Yuhao nodded and walked towards Lin Xiuya.

"Squad leader, is there an array set up to gather energy and accelerate cultivation?"

Lin Xiuya shook his head and explained, "The meditation chamber relies on the magic core to increase the energy concentration and uses mechanical techniques to prevent the energy from dissipating."

Walking beside them, Yan Hao asked curiously, "Does the kind of formation you're talking about really exist, Lao Huo? I've never heard of it before."

"I've seen a record of this kind of formation in an ancient book." Huo Yuhao looked around the meditation area again. "If the academy only uses magic cores, the improvement will be very limited."

Yan Hao scratched his head and explained, "Of course it's not just that. The academy has developed a resonance cultivation method."

For example, if you, Lao Huo, and other ice-attribute students are in the same meditation room, your cultivation speed will increase significantly.

"Why?" Huo Yuhao asked, intrigued.

"Uh, I don't know about that." Yan Hao said somewhat awkwardly, "Old Lin, do you know?"

Lin Xiuya recalled for a moment: "I remember—it is said that it uses mechanical arts to guide the flow of energy, and the students are all cultivating at energy nodes."

"I see." Huo Yuhao stopped asking questions and found the ice-attribute meditation room, entering with classmates from his class and other classes. At first glance, the meditation room was filled with many futons, arranged in a certain order rather than simply neatly.

Huo Yuhao found an empty spot, sat down cross-legged, and closed his eyes. Instead of immediately beginning his cultivation, he quietly dispersed his spiritual energy, silently permeating every corner of the meditation room.

In his mental vision, the release of the demonic core energy, the guiding path of the mechanical arts, the direction of energy flow, and the subtle energy ripples caused by the circulation of battle qi by several students who were cultivating were all clearly imprinted in Huo Yuhao's mind.

The cultivation speed can only be increased by a maximum of 30%. Huo Yuhao pondered silently, and the prototype of an improvement plan quietly took shape in his mind.

"You learned it so quickly?" Hu Gan's chubby face was full of shock. It had only been three days, and this kid who had asked for leave had appeared in the vice dean's office again, claiming that he had mastered the three volumes of fighting techniques.

"Yes." Huo Yuhao took the three scrolls out of his storage ring and placed them on Hu Qian's desk.

"Do you want to inspect it?"

"Hmm—" Hu Qian flipped through the three scrolls, confirming that none of them were simple or easy-to-learn fighting techniques. He was truly incredulous: "Let's go to the fighting arena! Talk is cheap, I want to see for myself!"

This fighting skills building is Huo Yuhao's fourth stop on his exploration of Canaan Academy. When he visited yesterday, he also spent half an hour learning these three volumes of fighting skills.

The difficulty of these three fighting techniques lies in energy control, which poses no challenge for Huo Yuhao. The only difficulty is that the escape technique requires opening some meridians in the feet; otherwise, it wouldn't have taken so long.

In the spacious training room, the curious students who came upon hearing the news were ruthlessly waved away by Hu Qian, leaving only the elder in charge of managing the fighting skills building, who also looked surprised and suspicious.

"Young Huo, let me tell you in advance." Hu Qian cleared his throat, forcing a serious expression on his chubby face. "The 'mastery' I'm talking about isn't something you can just barely manage to do."

Hu Qian pointed to one of the scrolls: "Take the 'Mystic Frost Realm' move for example. You can only truly master it if you can simultaneously dodge three attacks and weaken the enemy's defense."

Hu Qian subtly raised his standards a bit, wanting to see if this overconfident kid would back down.

"No problem." Huo Yuhao nodded, getting ready.

The following demonstration completely transformed the astonishment and doubt in Hu Qian and the elders' eyes into utter shock.

Huo Yuhao stood quietly in place. With a thought, a faint chill enveloped the entire training room. As the three attacks launched by Hu Qian and the Dou Wang Elder, roughly equivalent to the level of a Great Dou Master, approached Huo Yuhao's vicinity, the three chills, under Huo Yuhao's control, instantly enveloped and sealed these attacks until they disappeared completely.

At the same time, the cold air released by Huo Yuhao maintained a specific fluctuation frequency, which constantly affected Hu Qian and the elder's defensive fighting spirit, who were shrouded in the cold air.

When unleashing the second volume of explosive fighting techniques, Huo Yuhao took out a long sword made of ordinary material, adjusted his breathing slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he had completed the charging. He pushed off with his feet and immediately appeared in front of the test steel stake, slashing down with force.

Click!

A steel pile as tall as a person was vertically split in two, with the cut surface as smooth as a mirror.

The escape techniques in Volume Three were no exception. When Huo Yuhao used them, his afterimage was barely visible in the training room.

The elder, Dou Wang, watched with gleam in admiration and couldn't help but bow to Hu Qian, saying, "Vice Dean, this lad's talent is truly rare! Why don't I test his combat skills?"

"Wait a minute!" Hu Qian waved his chubby hand, a mischievous glint in his eyes, stopping the eager elder. "The cushy job of instructing the younger generation is definitely more suitable for me, the vice dean, to do personally! Old Zhou, why don't you be our referee!"

Elder Zhou rubbed his nose helplessly and muttered under his breath, "You, a Dou Huang, need a referee to guide a Da Dou Shi? You're probably making me a babysitter—"

"Enough talk, let's go, let's go to the back mountain!" Hu Qian led the way out with great enthusiasm.

Behind the mountain, there was a vast, open grassland. Huo Yuhao focused his attention on sensing Hu Qian's aura. Hu Qian was also a peak Dou Huang. Based on the Soul Hall Dou Huang he had encountered before, the strength of this level was roughly equivalent to a quasi-god level with a four-word Dou Armor on the Douluo Continent.

Huo Yuhao took out a spiritual weapon longsword. It was a fourth-grade spiritual weapon, which Huo Yuhao made after he acquired the Nine-Fold Ice Flame.

"start!"

The moment Elder Zhou shouted "Start!", Hu Qian didn't wait for Huo Yuhao to make the first move. He immediately spread his battle qi wings and flew into the air, attempting to use his superior position to suppress Huo Yuhao, a "flying" Grand Dou Master.

Without being rash, Huo Yuhao unleashed a blade of light, intending to test Hu Qian's abilities.

Unexpectedly, Hu Qian had no intention of taking the attack. He flapped his battle qi wings and shifted to the right, dodging the blade's edge while also unleashing a stream of battle qi as a probing attack in response to Huo Yuhao.

It has to be said that Hu Gan's move completely lacked the demeanor of a senior, directly seizing the opportunity when, in his eyes, Huo Yuhao's "old strength had faded and new strength had not yet emerged" to strike.

"Vice Dean and others—" Elder Zhou exclaimed, feeling that it was really too much for Hu Qian, a Dou Huang, to use such moves when instructing students.

However, Huo Yuhao had anticipated this. His fighting spirit roared beneath his feet, and his Qi control technique flowed silently. He activated both skills simultaneously, and his entire body rose vertically into the air like a rocket, dodging Hu Qian's attack.

"This—a Dou Zong?! How is this possible?!" Hu Qian and Elder Zhou exclaimed simultaneously, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets. A Great Dou Master standing in mid-air—this completely overturned their years of common sense about cultivation!

"It's just a special fighting technique," Huo Yuhao explained, his hands moving without stopping. He raised his longsword high, and a chilling aura gathered wildly, instantly transforming the blade into a massive ice shard.

【Emperor Sword - Unrivaled Ice】!

Huo Yuhao let out a low shout, and the giant blade, carrying the power to tear the sky apart, slashed fiercely at Hu Qian in the air!
