"Little monster, is there anything better than a 70,000-year-old spirit bone?" Dugu Bo was stunned.

Han Yu nodded. "It's no harm telling you in advance. For this Spirit Master Competition, I plan to offer eight 90,000-100,000-year-old spirit bones. If they win the championship, these eight bones will be theirs. So, old monster, do you still think these 70,000-year-old spirit bones are so valuable?"

"Little monster, whose ancestral grave have you dug up? Don't let anyone find out," Dugu Bo said anxiously.

In the Spirit Master world, who could offer so many spirit bones? Not to mention commanding the attention of hundreds, at least every Titled Douluo below level 99 would be tempted.

Moreover, taking the spirit bones would be like doing Han Yu a huge favor, making them his henchmen possible.

But for Han Yu, his future strength would only grow stronger, and these henchmen were completely unnecessary.

"Don't worry, old monster. There's absolutely no problem with the origins of these spirit bones. But don't spread rumors outside, or you'll attract attention."

Dugu Bo naturally knew this.

Han Yu told him this because he treated him as one of his own. With Han Yu's talent, his future was undoubtedly limitless. The Dugu family was honored to have such a powerful figure as their companion.

Dugu Bo was not Tang San; he naturally knew how to repay a favor.

"Thank you, little monster."

"Don't be so cheesy. Old monster, if you have time, go to Canaan City and keep an eye on it. Also, we can arrange for some refugees to move into the developed areas."

Han Yu wouldn't help these people in vain. These refugees were a vital source of productivity.

The academy was full of spirit masters, and no one would take the menial jobs.

Giving these jobs to the refugees would not only provide them with food, but also give them extra money to improve their lives.

"I'll do it right away."

After Dugu Bo left, Sun Buyu and Huang Min, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, finally entered.

"Teacher Sun, Teacher Huang, please take a seat."

"Dean, you called us here, what's the matter?" Sun Buyu and Huang asked nervously.

Normally, Han Yu would only ask Sun Buyu for team matters, but now he called both of them here.

Sun Buyu once doubted whether he had done something wrong.

Han Yu said, "I heard about the results of the college exchange competition. You have done a great job to achieve such results without revealing too many cards."

Hearing this, Sun Buyu and Huang breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as they had made contributions, and had not committed heinous crimes, at least they would not be expelled from the college.

"Why are you two so nervous? I called you here to reward you according to your merits." Han Yu said unhappily.

"Hey, Dean, we..."

Han Yu waved his hand, quickly pushing the two brocade boxes in front of them. "Alright, alright, keep it up in the future. Also, you have to pay more attention to your tactics. With this impressive performance, there must be a lot of teams secretly studying us."

"Thunder Academy did suffer a complete defeat this time, but there's no guarantee they might have some big moves up their sleeves. Our goal is to win the Soul Master Competition. We don't want to be robbed by this kind of guy."

"Yes, Dean," Sun Buyu and his wife stood up, saying solemnly.

"Go ahead, go ahead. I have faith in your abilities."

With a thank you, Sun Buyu and his wife picked up the brocade boxes and headed out.

On the way, Huang Min, curious, opened the box.

The moment she saw the soul bone, she froze in her tracks.

"What's wrong?" Sun Buyu asked, only then noticing the soul bone inside.

He then quickly opened his own box, revealing a similarly ten-thousand-year-old soul bone.

With only a trace of rationality left in him, he quickly returned the brocade box to Han Yu and said, "Dean, the soul bone is too valuable. I can't accept it."

Huang Min looked at Sun Buyu with some resentment when he heard this.

Soul bones are something every soul master dreams of. If you don't want them, you can give them to me.

"Take them! These two soul bones are both a testament to your work and a reminder to keep striving. Do your best." Han Yu waved his hand, not wanting to take the soul bones back.

"This..." Sun Buyu hesitated.

Huang Min said, "Old Sun, the dean is impressed by us. Do you want to embarrass him? Hurry and take them."

"Thank you, dean."

After thanking him again, Sun Buyu took the soul bones and left.

Han Yu smiled faintly, unconcerned.

Next, he gave Li Tian a 30,000-year-old soul bone.

This guy had recently reached level 89 with the help of the Heavenly Burning Soul Refining Tower. As long as he absorbed this soul bone, his breakthrough to level 90 would be a sure thing.

Han Yu wasn't afraid of him returning to the Spirit Hall afterward. For a cultivation fanatic like him, even if he became a Titled Douluo, he wouldn't give up the accelerated cultivation effects of the Heavenly Burning Soul Refining Tower.

"If you can use this to break through to level ninety, go find Poison Douluo. He'll help you obtain your ninth spirit ring."

"Dean Han, this..." Li Tian couldn't help but feel touched.

Han Yu smiled and said, "Go ahead. Since you can't return to the Pope's Palace, stay at the academy. After all, I still need you, a Titled Douluo, to keep me in good stead."

"Dean Han, I'll remember your kindness. If you need anything in the future, just let me know." Li Tian patted his chest, his face filled with gratitude.

"Dean Li, you're too kind. Go back to your training. I won't keep you here."

With Sun Buyu and his wife in their care, the teachers who had defected from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy would naturally be retained.

With Li Tian in their care, the teachers from the Spirit Hall would naturally remain loyal.

Giving away some unused spirit bones in exchange for long-term stability at the academy was a sure win.

After distributing the rewards, Han Yu pulled out a 100,000-year-old spirit bone from his spirit guide.

This one was the most suitable for him to absorb.

After all he'd done, it made sense for him to absorb a soul bone himself.

It was the left leg bone of a 100,000-year-old Gilded Flying Kite.

Soul beasts like the Gilded Flying Kite are known for their speed, so absorbing it would undoubtedly provide them with impressive soul skills.

Entering the Dean's chamber, Han Yu sat cross-legged, the soul bone hovering before him.

"My soul power has now reached level 88. I hope I can break through to level 90 this time."

His soul power had already reached the level of a 97th-level Super Douluo, so whether the 100,000-year-old soul bone could propel him to level 90 remained uncertain.

Half a day later, the soul bone was completely absorbed.

However, his soul power only increased by one level, still a bit short of level 90.

However, the soul bone did grant him two impressive soul skills: Kite Flight and Gilded Body. The former was a teleportation skill, the latter a defensive skill.

"Aren't these the same soul skills provided by the Soft Bone Rabbit?"

Upon closer inspection, Han Yu realized he'd misunderstood.

Yuan Xing can not only teleport, but also increase his speed by 100%. After the gilded body is activated, he enters an invincible state, but can move freely, but the speed is slightly reduced.
