Because Huo Yuhao's purple top and trench coat combination was too conspicuous, everyone in the square noticed him entering the city lord's mansion.
"Hey, who is that person? Dressed so arrogantly? He actually walked straight into the city lord's mansion?"
"Could he be a relative of City Lord Kong?"
You know, in the fantasy world, there's a local specialty called the all-knowing ant.
As the name suggests, when the protagonist does something important, a random ant will always appear next to him who happens to know the identities of both sides.
Sometimes these ants can even directly call out the name and title of the ancestor of the other family who has been in seclusion for thousands of years.
Who knows where they got the information? Maybe even the younger generation of the other family doesn't know that there is such a person in their family.
Huo Yuhao's current appearance is not a secret among the enthusiastic crowd, after all, since Danzo, he has basically been using the alias Huo Qiqiang.
Except for that one time when he impulsively cosplayed Gojo Satoru.
Of course, there were also some parents of children in the square who were enthusiastic members, and they naturally recognized Huo Yuhao's identity.
"That's... the boss!!!"
"What the heck? Let me see what's going on... It really is the boss!!"
"It's the boss! I saw him at the Passion headquarters a while ago!"
"What old man? Can you even speak?!"
"I think you've got a problem with oranges, you want peaches instead!"
The square erupted in a cacophony of shouts, each wave louder than the last. Every member of Passion was incredibly excited.
After all, their current status and various benefits were all thanks to Passion, or rather, to Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao was quite generous to Passion's members. Since the Thunderous Hell Vine Canyon fell into his hands, they had no shortage of rare medicinal herbs.
Apart from the most precious immortal herbs, some high-grade medicinal herbs could be exchanged within Passion, but only with contribution points.

The contribution point mechanism was designed by Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and repeatedly verified by the Tianmeng Brain Processor to ensure fairness and rigor, preventing issues like inflation.
Many enthusiastic members exchanged their points for rare medicinal herbs to improve their physical abilities; these herbs were practically priceless on the market.
For Soul Masters, this was a true opportunity.
Possessing an entire treasure trove was incredibly beneficial for any faction.
Just based on the various rare medicinal herbs in the Thunderous Hell Vine Canyon, Huo Yuhao was confident that the Enthusiasts would produce at least one Super Douluo in each generation.
Therefore, Huo Yuhao didn't understand why Tang San hadn't left the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for the Tang Sect.
The treasure trove effect of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well far surpassed that of the Thunderous Hell Vine Canyon.
If the Tang Sect knew the exact location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and if Tang San had also left a method to traverse the poisonous barrier,
even a small thought wouldn't have led to the Tang Sect's decline!
Any single immortal herb given to a suitable person could almost certainly reach the Super Douluo level, and with better talent, might even break through to the Limit Douluo level!
So no one knew what Tang San, that dog-donkey, was really thinking. On one hand, he ignored the decline of the Tang Sect by not leaving them the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes, while on the other hand, he hoped Huo Yuhao would revitalize the Tang Sect.
It was a battle between his left and right brains.
"Hehe, I didn't expect it would be the boss who awakens our martial souls."
"I must perform well and give the boss a surprise with my martial soul!"
A fifteen-year-old enthusiastic member, who hadn't awakened his martial soul yet, was full of excitement, determined to give Huo Yuhao a spectacular performance with his martial soul.
After being introduced by these enthusiastic members, the surrounding residents of Xilu City realized that the person who had just entered the city lord's mansion was none other than the uncrowned king of Xilu City and the number one Baturu of the Heaven Dou Plain—the enthusiastic boss.
The residents of Xilu City were very grateful to Huo Yuhao because he had canceled a bunch of taxes as soon as he arrived, and even the land tax had returned to normal.
Without those fat-headed nobles and that incompetent city lord, the lives of these people were getting sweeter and sweeter.
"Erlang, you'd better behave well in front of our enthusiastic boss, and be sure to pay attention to your manners! If he takes a liking to you, you'll be set for
life." The people began to carefully instruct their children, to prevent them from suddenly doing something bad to Huo Yuhao.
Bai E and the others only knew that Huo Yuhao held a high position, but they never expected him to be the owner of the Passionate Orphanage.
Passionate Orphanage was the one that supported the orphanage, and they did their best for every orphan.
For orphans with soul power, Passionate Orphanage would help them hunt for soul rings, and the first ring was always a hundred-year ring.
Soul masters from other cities would think, "These aren't orphans! Who gives their orphan a hundred-year soul ring for their first ring?
They have parents, and their first ring is still a ten-year soul ring. Does getting a hundred-year soul ring mean they have to lose something?"
"So he's the owner of Passionate Orphanage!"
Bai E exclaimed, looking at the city lord's mansion gate with a look of admiration, his blue eyes seemingly flashing with gold.
"We must repay him properly in the future; everyone in the orphanage has received a lot of care from him!"
Ti Bao tugged at Feng Jin's clothes, her beautiful eyes filled with gratitude.
Even Medemos, who had been holding his arms crossed, using his body to shield the three people behind him from the crowd, softened his golden eyes.
Although these individuals have different personalities, they are all genuinely good people; otherwise, they wouldn't get along.
As long as you don't scheme against them, drag them to the Valley of Love and Destiny, and severely whip them or even change their gender, they generally won't harbor murderous intent.
Zuo Man'er, as the director of the orphanage, also arrived at the city lord's mansion. She glanced at the crowd and, relying on her extraordinary vision as a Soul Master, found Bai E and the others.
She walked over slowly, and Ti Bao and Feng Jin immediately rushed into her arms. The director squatted down and gently stroked the two children's backs, saying to Bai E and Maidemus,
"I didn't expect the boss to personally awaken your Martial Souls. It seems the boss values you children very much."
"Bai E and Maidemus, don't worry too much about whether you have Soul Power after awakening your Martial Souls."
"Only a few people have Soul Power. Life is a wilderness, not a one-way street."
"Never give up on yourselves."
Zuo Man'er carefully instructed the children in front of her; these were some of the most outstanding students in the orphanage.
Their character and nature were both excellent. If they weren't so young, Zuo Man'er would have already drawn them in.
Bai E nodded seriously and said,
"Yes!"
"We won't give up!"
Inside the City Lord's Mansion, Kong Yang had already prepared awakening stones and a large area for Huo Yuhao.
"My lord, should I arrange for an assistant to help you record your martial soul information?"
Huo Yuhao waved his hand and said to him,
"No need, I'll record this martial soul information myself."
"Go outside and maintain order now."
"Then give me the list, I'm going to start calling people."
Kong Yang respectfully presented the list of people undergoing martial soul awakening today with both hands.
After Huo Yuhao took the list, Kong Yang immediately went to the City Lord's Mansion gate to maintain order in the square.
After watching him disappear, Huo Yuhao glanced at the list. The list was arranged rather haphazardly, probably according to the registration time.
He simply started calling people in the order of the list.
"First person, Boss." The
voice transmission soul tool transmitted Huo Yuhao's voice to the square, letting everyone know that the martial soul awakening had begun.
