Soon, the benefits for spiritual cultivation that Lu Xiaoxiao mentioned arrived.
Huo Yuhao felt his brain becoming clearer and clearer, and a cool energy began to surge from his stomach towards his brain.
"Damn, this feels great! What's happening?"
A not-so-serious voice sounded in Huo Yuhao's mind, its tone full of surprise.
"Tianmeng Ge?"
Huo Yuhao was also a little surprised by this.
This million-year Soul Beast had been enthusiastic about sleeping since becoming his soul ring. If Huo Yuhao didn't actively seek him out, he wouldn't speak. It was quite rare for him to speak up on his own like this.
"Hmm... I just felt your spiritual power suddenly increase by a bit, and I felt a little surpris—Holy crap, Yuhao, why are you eating bugs!"
Tianmeng Iceworm was instantly startled awake.
The sight of Huo Yuhao eating bugs was truly too terrifying.
Huo Yuhao explained helplessly:
"This is good stuff. The spiritual power increase you felt is probably because I ate this."
"Huh? Really?"
Tianmeng Iceworm's attitude suddenly did a complete 180-degree turn.
"Then Yuhao, eat more, the more you eat, the better!"
"Got it."
Huo Yuhao sighed in his heart, enduring the nausea and finished eating the remaining bugs.
Honestly, if this stuff didn't really help with the growth of spiritual power, he wouldn't want to touch it a second time in his life.
Seeing him eat it all, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded with satisfaction.
"Very good. At least based on your performance so far, you are the student I've taught who satisfies me the most. Come, this is the second dish."
As she spoke, she opened the lid of the second dish.
For a moment, Huo Yuhao was really worried it would be another unacceptable dish. Fortunately, this time the food was normal. It was a large, steaming shrimp, its grilled red body alone was enough to whet one's appetite.
Lu Xiaoxiao said with a smile:
"This dish would cost hundreds of gold soul coins to start with outside. It has a very strong ability to vitalize qi and blood, and can effectively improve the consumer's physical quality. Even I don't have the right to eat it casually. You kid are truly enviable."
The subsequent developments confirmed what Lu Xiaoxiao said. Not long after eating this dish, Huo Yuhao felt his entire body start to uncontrollably radiate heat. A strong warmth filled his whole body, and he felt somewhat lazy.
And this was just the beginning. Lu Xiaoxiao prepared four or five dishes for him in total, only stopping after he really couldn't eat anymore.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao was glowing red all over due to the excess energy in his body, his eyes were bright, and he looked exceptionally excited.
Lu Xiaoxiao, not surprised, said to him:
"Go out, turn right to the third room. The Teacher for the next class is waiting for you inside. You performed quite well today. I hope you can keep it up."
"Don't worry, I definitely will."
Huo Yuhao and Lu Xiaoxiao smiled at each other. The atmosphere was already much better than when they started.
Huo Yuhao walked out of the room and came to the room Lu Xiaoxiao had mentioned. The moment he entered, he was completely stunned.
The reason was simple: he saw a middle-aged bearded uncle wearing a pink short skirt making faces at the mirror in front of him...
For a moment, he felt his stomach churning, and he almost threw up everything he had just eaten.
He suddenly understood why Xian Lin'er's smile was so strange when she sent him here. The first lesson was eating bugs, what was the second lesson? Becoming a transvestite?
The middle-aged uncle heard the sound of the door opening, suddenly turned his head, and his eyes lit up when he saw him. He approached him with an extremely seductive posture.
"Oh my, are you the Xiao Yuhao that Dean Xian mentioned?"
"Stay back!"
Huo Yuhao subconsciously took two steps back and shouted.
To him, this transvestite was even more disgusting than the bugs in his bowl.
"Tch, so Xiao Yuhao, you're also someone who judges by appearance after all this? Alright then, I'll change into something you might like."
The middle-aged uncle pouted aggrievedly, then, under Huo Yuhao's dumbfounded gaze, quickly patted himself a few times and turned into a voluptuous beauty.
"This, what are you?"
Huo Yuhao was completely bewildered.
This change is too big!
The "middle-aged uncle" smiled slightly at him.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Gao Sheng, and I am the Teacher responsible for teaching you makeup and stealth abilities."
"You mean, that appearance just now was from disguise?"
Huo Yuhao was shocked.
Can this be called makeup? This is like changing into a completely different person!
Gao Sheng nodded with satisfaction.
"Not bad, your reaction speed is very fast. I believe you should also understand the importance of this technique of mine, right?"
"...Mm."
Although he was very reluctant to admit it, he had to say that Gao Sheng's ability was a very valuable technique in warfare.
At least it was more useful than the food-related knowledge Lu Xiaoxiao taught.
If it could be brought back to the Star Luo Empire, it would provide considerable help to the Star Luo Empire.
"Then let's study properly!"
Gao Sheng gracefully walked to Huo Yuhao's side, put his arm around his shoulder, and chuckled softly:
"If you learn well, there's a reward; if you don't learn well, there's a punishment~"
"——"
Huo Yuhao felt like he was about to get goosebumps.
Because when Gao Sheng said this, his voice instantly changed back to a middle-aged man's voice.
This guy really made people feel physically uncomfortable.
And next, Huo Yuhao endured a full three hours of "torment" in this room.
When he walked out of the room, he felt his steps were already unsteady.
In the end, he still didn't figure out Gao Sheng's real gender and appearance.
Gao Sheng also gave him a strict task, saying that if Huo Yuhao couldn't pass his assessment by the end of the semester, he would choose the most outrageous appearance, put his arm around Huo Yuhao's shoulder, and walk around Shrek Academy.
Huo Yuhao had no choice but to do his best to learn the knowledge he taught.
And after Gao Sheng's disguise class, there were even three more classes.
By the time Huo Yuhao returned to his dorm, it was already the middle of the night.
Pushing open the dorm door, Huo Yuhao blinked in surprise, then chuckled softly.
"This guy is really starting to work hard, just like the two Deans said."
In front of him, Wang Dong was sitting cross-legged on his bed, cultivating.
For the Wang Dong who previously wouldn't even spend time cultivating during the day, it was unbelievable that he was willing to use his sleeping time for meditation.
Yet, this very thing was happening right in front of Huo Yuhao.
What kind of mental journey did he go through?
Huo Yuhao shook his head with a wry smile, sat on his own bed, closed his eyes, and reviewed the knowledge he had learned today in his mind.
Even a lazy dog like Wang Dong knows to work hard, so he has to work even harder.
