Walking out of his house, he headed towards Notting Academy, which was very close to his home, less than a ten-minute walk, both located in the western part of Notting City.
To be precise, the western area of Notting City was where nobles and soul masters resided. The Spirit Hall was also on the edge of this area, and commoners rarely came here, except for some shops.
Along the way, Han Li nodded and greeted the people he met. For him, the people here were familiar, and he belonged to the privileged class in Notting City.
Even though his spirit hadn't awakened yet, his status in this small border town was quite noble.
His parents died while cleaning up fallen soul masters and were posthumously honored by the Heaven Dou Empire. The title of viscount naturally passed to him, their only child. Moreover, the City Lord of Notting City, City Lord Xiao, was a good friend of his parents. After all, they were considered "geniuses" of Notting City, and City Lord Xiao's successful succession as City Lord was inseparable from his parents' support. In their youth, they had adventured together and had a deep friendship.
From the Spirit Hall, Mashino was his parents' enlightenment teacher and awakener, and Su Yuntao had awakened his parents' spirits. Furthermore, he was the son of a Spirit Hall martyr.
In Notting City, where the highest level was only a level 41 Soul Grandmaster, he could walk sideways, except for not being connected to the Dean of Notting Academy.
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, he arrived at the gate of Notting Academy in less than ten minutes. The archway, over twenty meters wide and more than ten meters high, was rare in Notting City. He stopped, as he was no stranger to this place, having visited it many times before.
"Oh, I was wondering why magpies were chirping early in the morning. It turns out Young Master Han is here. Are you going in? I'll open the gate for you."
A slightly fawning voice came from the side. Han Li turned his head and saw the gatekeeper of Notting Academy jogging to a stop three meters away from him, his face creased with smiles.
"No need, it's just the start of the school year today, so I wanted to come and take a look. Maybe I'll come in a while. By the way, has anyone signed up today?"
Han Li didn't want to hit a smiling face, and he was used to his attitude, as it wasn't the first time he had encountered it.
"Replying to Young Master Han, according to past practice, the soul master masters in the city probably won't come until the afternoon. As for those stinky beggars from outside the city, they're probably still on their way. They won't arrive until after 9:30 at the earliest." The gatekeeper's voice was a little louder when he answered, and his words were full of contempt for the work-study students.
Han Li understood the meaning of his words and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Discrimination in this other world was even more obvious than in his previous life, and now he was at the top of the chain.
"Be careful what you say, you're not a soul master."
Han Li replied lightly and turned to walk towards the restaurant not far away.
"Young Master Han, you're right, I'll remember that."
The gatekeeper behind him shouted louder, afraid that he wouldn't hear him.
When Han Li's figure entered the restaurant, he straightened up and walked back to his post, muttering in a low voice, "These masters are really hard to serve. Just mud legs, so what if they're soul masters? I represent Notting Academy, they can't kill me. I've been flattering them for so long and they don't even give me a tip. Bah, it sounds nice, but if I don't make money off them, relying on flattering you, I can't even afford wine."
...
Entering the restaurant, Han Li took Xiu'er straight to the second floor, chose a seat with a window near the academy gate, ordered some snacks and tea, and began to space out.
He had confirmed that the timeline was already two and a half years in. Some time ago, he had learned from Su Yuntao that Tang San had awakened a Blue Silver Grass with full innate soul power in Holy Soul Village. He and Tang San were the same age, but he was a few months younger and missed the unified awakening time.
However, he didn't need to do that. He could just wait until his birthday to awaken his spirit at the Spirit Hall. In general, it was only three months late, which was completely acceptable. His only concern now was his spirit.
He, Han Li, was a transmigrator without any obvious cheat.
Well, no obvious cheat, he didn't bring a system or golden finger with him.
However, he was still different from others. Thinking of the information he had received in the dark after awakening his consciousness, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
He didn't have a cheat, but it was opened, not by him, but by Douluo Star for him. In short, he was Douluo I's Huo Yuhao.
After he awakened his memories of his previous life, the plane consciousness took the initiative to find him, which surprised him greatly.
If he remembered correctly, Douluo Star shouldn't have developed consciousness at this time. However, things happened so unbelievably.
In short, the high-dimensional information carried by his soul when he transmigrated stimulated the early awakening of the plane consciousness, which also led to the plane consciousness in its infancy binding him in advance.
However, this also had a consequence. He became the only candidate for the upgrade of Douluo Star. If he became a Heavenly Venerate, the Douluo plane would be upgraded accordingly. If he died, the Douluo plane consciousness would be annihilated, and there would be no possibility of upgrading.
In short, he became Douluo Star's biological father, but because the plane consciousness was still weak, it could only grow stronger with his strength. In addition, the Asura God had tampered with the continent's luck before the plane consciousness awakened, so he could only be considered a beggar version of Huo Yuhao now.
Fortunately, he only needed to become stronger step by step to allow the plane consciousness to grow stronger with him and the luck to flow back. He didn't need to actively seize the luck that Tang San had artificially formed, as written in other novels.
Moreover, through the plane consciousness, he also learned a little about the changes from the God Realm. The divine thoughts originally cast here had changed from one to several, and some of them were not weaker than the initial divine thought.
This situation was a good thing for him, especially for the Destruction God King, who wanted to strengthen the God Realm with all his heart. He must have discovered this special situation.
Speaking of which, he had kidnapped the entire Douluo Star from the start.
Hehehe, Destruction, you don't want to see Douluo Star fail to upgrade, do you?
So, I announce that Douluo Star will be renamed Han Li Square from today.
Thinking of this, the corners of Han Li's mouth curled up even higher.
Although he thought so in his heart, Han Li quickly calmed down again. As the inheritor of a certain Heavenly Venerate's homophonic name, he knew very well that only those who laughed last were the winners, and he undoubtedly did not yet have that qualification.
Gou, scratch that, steady progress is the path he should take. As for Tang San, that was not a problem he should be considering now.
"Young Master, someone has gone over there. The registration should have started," Xiu'er reminded softly from the side, interrupting Han Li's thoughts.
"Mm."
Han Li replied casually, turning his head to look at the school gate.
He saw the gatekeeper stopping an old man and a child, arrogantly saying something.
And not far away, a familiar buzz-cut head appeared in the same place during the annual enrollment season, also observing the situation.
He couldn't help but take a sip of the tea that had gone cold, his expression unchanged, but his eyes narrowed slightly.
Hello, Tang San.
Requesting readers for the new book. Interested friends can also invest in it; the earlier, the higher the return.
Because it's a Douluo fanfic, I'll wait a few days and then ask the editor for a contract.
