Two years quickly passed.
Huo Yuhao stood inside a spacious laboratory, and a massive warship was parked in front of him.
The warship had an azure-blue exterior, with intricate Spirit Tool patterns engraved across its streamlined hull. At the bow of the warship, a massive main cannon was prominently displayed.
Although the rewards of the Five Extremes Grand Competition also included a similar warship, those were, after all, things directly given by the academy.
As for the one before his eyes, from design to production, from the polishing of every single part to the assembly of the overall structure, it was entirely completed by his own hands, and that sense of accomplishment was completely different.
Huo Yuhao invited everyone in the class to come and visit together, and of course he also called Ling Zichen and Xiao Hongchen and the others, because these were all his companions.
After everyone arrived at the laboratory and saw the massive azure-blue warship, they couldn't help but widen their eyes.
Ling Zichen stepped forward, carefully looked over the warship's exterior and structure, and then turned her head to look at Huo Yuhao, her red eyes filled with amazement.
"Huo Yuhao, you really are a monster."
Ling Zichen had long known that Huo Yuhao's talent in Spirit Tools was above her own, but she hadn't expected that Huo Yuhao would surpass her in such a short time.
Of course, she naturally also knew the effort Huo Yuhao had put in: those sleepless days, those design drafts that were repeatedly scrapped and started over, those troubleshooting and improvements time and time again... All the achievements did not come out of thin air.
However, Ling Zichen's focus was no longer here. Her focus was already on the Dragon God's essence blood that Lin Feng had given her; this was a technology she was interested in.
Wang Dong'er was also standing in the crowd at this moment, looking at Huo Yuhao, her pink-blue eyes similarly filled with deep emotion.
"Huo Yuhao, you really are quite amazing."
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao just smiled and then modestly waved his hand.
"It's nothing, I just spent more time on it, you guys can do it too."
Yet after his words fell, the atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became somewhat subtle.
After all, the scenes displayed within that light curtain had long since exposed the relationship between Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er.
Everyone knew that the two of them would be a married couple in the future, and furthermore, in that light curtain, the two of them loved each other deeply to the point of life and death.
Yet in reality, the relationship between Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er had not reached that step yet, and there was also the obstacle of Tang San lying between them.
To be honest, when the two looked at each other, they felt slightly awkward, after all, everything in their development seemed as if it had been designed by Tang San.
However, both of them were trying their best to defuse that awkwardness, because they shared a common enemy between them: Tang San.
That Tang San who manipulated their destiny, that Tang San who treated Wang Dong'er as a chess piece and Huo Yuhao as a tool.
At the thought of that fellow, the slight awkwardness between the two of them was naturally diluted by quite a bit.
There was only three years left until they could take revenge on Tang San.
At this moment, a flash of cold light crossed Huo Yuhao's azure-blue eyes. He wondered if Tang San was prepared to meet his death.
And right at this moment, Tang Wulin suddenly stepped forward, and quite excitedly patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder.
"Yuhao, can this warship of yours... fly out of Shrek Academy and then fly toward the Universe?"
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao was slightly stunned, and then smiled and nodded.
"Yes."
"I have already confirmed with the headmaster beforehand, and he said that my warship is guaranteed to be able to take everyone to break out of this planet of ours."
Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, then swept his gaze across everyone present and asked.
"What do you all think? Do you want to go out and take a look together?"
Hearing that they could go to the Universe, everyone was naturally quite willing. Everyone nodded with excitement on their faces, especially Xie Xie, who looked like he was about to jump up.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Huo Yuhao smiled and nodded.
"Alright, next I will take you all to fly into outer space together."
After saying that, he turned around and walked toward the hatch of the warship. Everyone successively followed behind him and boarded the azure-blue warship.
The space inside the warship was quite spacious, and various Spirit Tool devices were neatly arranged on the bulkhead. Huo Yuhao sat in front of the console, placed his hands on the control devices, took a deep breath, and then slowly started the warship's power System.
The warship's engines emitted a low roaring sound, and the entire hull began to vibrate slightly.
Under Huo Yuhao's control, the azure-blue warship slowly lifted into the air, flying toward the laboratory's ceiling. The laboratory's ceiling also opened up at this time, and then the warship passed through that passage, arriving into the outside sky.
Immediately following that, the warship's speed suddenly increased, and then it fiercely rushed toward high altitude. Shrek Academy below became smaller and smaller.
The air whistled past the outside of the hull, and the speed became faster and faster.
Then with a loud boom, the warship pierced through the atmosphere and rushed out of that planet.
Outside the window was endless darkness, dotted with countless twinkling starlights within the darkness. Those lights were brilliant and distant, as if they were within reach, yet as if they could never be reached.
And below them, that huge planet was quietly rotating; this was precisely Douluo Continent.
"So beautiful..."
Wang Dong'er couldn't help muttering softly.
Everyone fell silent, deeply shocked by the scene before their eyes. They had never thought that one day they would actually be able to fly to such a high place and see such scenery.
Then, their gazes couldn't help but look toward the sphere near Douluo Continent—if nothing unexpected happened, that should be the Divine Realm, and Tang San was staying right here.
Although they wanted revenge, it still wouldn't do, at least not right now. There were still three years left; three years later, they had to reach a level where they could absolutely crush Tang San!
At this time, Xie Xie suddenly turned his head excitedly, looked at Huo Yuhao, and said loudly.
"Let's go, let's go! I want to see what else is in the Universe! Are there other planets similar to Douluo Continent?"
The young man's eyes were filled with a curious light; those unknown things were full of infinite attraction for him.
However, he quickly put away that excited appearance, turned his head to look at Huo Yuhao, and carefully asked a question.
"Right, Yuhao... We can still go back, right?"
Upon hearing these words, Huo Yuhao couldn't help laughing.
"No problem."
"The headmaster has already told me the coordinates of the Universe, and there are also devices inside. If the energy is not enough, you can also return with a single click, so don't worry."
Hearing this, Xie Xie cheered directly.
"Yay!"
