Chapter 44 Beware of the Sound of the Clapper
Chapter 44 Beware of the Sound of the Clapper
There is basically no brand effect in Douluo Continent, but Huo Yuhao can understand it, as its essence is the "celebrity effect".
Of course, in the Douluo Continent, celebrities must have strength that matches their fame. Well, Yu Xiaogang is an exception here. Powerful Soul Masters or Soul Mentors can easily gain both fame and fortune.
Even though they are both level three soul tools, the ones made by Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall and a level nine soul tool master, are more expensive than those made by unknown soul tool masters.
Therefore, although Huo Yuhao couldn't understand why Dior's princess dresses were so overpriced and had such an absurdly low cost-performance ratio, yet so many people still flocked to them, he expressed his respect.
At least Erii's current dark blue high-necked jacquard tulle princess dress is really beautiful. The Saint Laurent black satin blazer is also a good match. The Miu Miu black patent leather Mary Janes add a sweet and cool vibe to Erii's outfit. The Cartier delicate rose gold bracelet, Dior vintage dark gold pearl earrings, and Miu Miu pearl and rhinestone bow hair clip all echo the pearls and crystals on the Mary Jane shoes. Finally, she adds a Chanel black velvet mini flap bag.
"The overall style presents a mix of cool elegance and sweet edginess, exuding sophistication without sacrificing grace, and showcasing individuality within its sweetness," the stylist proudly explained to Huo Yuhao. "Mainly because Miss Uesugi possesses superior physical attributes and a noble temperament, she perfectly brings out the luxurious texture, girlish charm, and cool aura of this outfit!"
The costume designer then showered Erii with compliments, while Huo Yuhao felt that his knowledge needed to be expanded.
Aesthetic sense is also quite important for a Soul Master; perhaps he could study this aspect further in this world.
Huo Yuhao looked at the elegant old gentleman beside him, who was full of admiration.
He always wore a black suit, as if he were always ready to send off the dragons at their funeral; he also always carried roses in his suit pocket, for...
Angers adorned Erii's blazer with a red rose brooch: "The rose is beautiful, but it's more fitting for a princess than to be in an old man's pocket like this."
This is very hot.
In Lu Mingfei's memory, Angers was a man who, though old, was young at heart, charming but not vulgar, possessing the unique romance and dignity of an old-fashioned English gentleman.
"Girls are the world's treasures," Angers exclaimed. "Isn't that right, Mingfei?"
Huo Yuhao wholeheartedly agreed.
"It's getting late, go have some fun." Angers patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder. "Have fun."
"Principal, are you coming with us?" Huo Yuhao asked, puzzled.
In Lu Mingfei's memory, Angers was quite the playful old man who loved going to amusement parks.
"Young people have their dates, and old people have their gatherings," Angers said to Huo Yuhao as he put on his hat. "I'm going to see an old friend again; he'll like the news I brought him today."
Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, remembering that the information about Uesugi Yue had been given to them by Ang Ti, so he asked, "Then where should we look for you?"
Angers glanced at Huo Yuhao, then turned and waved to him: "There's a ramen food truck at the back gate of Tokyo National University."
"This is your only chance to enjoy the best ramen made by a mixed-race person."
"This is truly unexpected," Caesar and Chu Zihang, now fully dressed, walked up to Huo Yuhao. "We'll seize this opportunity, Principal."
Angers has disappeared.
Caesar's pockets were bulging, indicating he had all his equipment, while Chu Zihang was carrying a tennis bag, which clearly contained a lot of good stuff.
"We will keep a certain distance from you to avoid attracting unnecessary attention." Caesar looked Huo Yuhao up and down, but didn't comment on his conventional attire. "This is the little princess's first time at an amusement park. First and foremost, she should be happy. Everything else is secondary."
Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.
No wonder this guy, despite having a girlfriend, can still gather a group of girls to form a "lace girl group"; he is indeed quite gentlemanly towards girls.
"I'll be careful," Huo Yuhao said seriously.
As for taking care of children, although Huo Yuhao had no relevant experience, he had only recently left his teenage years and dealing with teenagers was not a problem for him.
Huo Yuhao kept his position firmly in mind; he was simply Erii's older brother.
So, this isn't a date; it's the older brother taking his younger sister out to play.
Speaking of dating... he doesn't seem to have had a romantic date with Wang Dong'er yet.
Now that he has discovered Wang Dong'er's identity is a mystery, he is unsure how to face her.
How will Lu Mingfei handle his relationship with Dong'er and Qiu'er?
Sigh, this is how love triangles are in mainland China.
"The academy is really rich and powerful," Huo Yuhao remarked to Erii as they got into their private car. "Eri, why don't you ask Genji for some activity funds after we meet later?"
Erii tilted her head and then nodded.
Huo Yuhao chuckled and couldn't help but ruffle Erii's hair, but then he felt guilty and tidied it up for her after seeing that her hair was messed up.
Eriyi blinked and wrote in a small notebook: Sakura, how are you feeling today?
Huo Yuhao smiled broadly: "That's right."
After a night of hard work, he finally managed to develop a preliminary mental meditation method that might be suitable for hybrids in the dragon world.
Of course, this meditation method is only at the theoretical stage and still needs to be verified through practice.
Erii was naturally unsuitable to be the test subject; her condition was too unstable, and her temperament was not mature enough.
But Chu Zihang can.
As long as it leads to increased strength, I'm sure Senior Brother wouldn't refuse such an attempt. Huo Yuhao will be there to protect him throughout the experiment, so theoretically there shouldn't be any major problems.
Of course, Huo Yuhao did not intend to force Chu Zihang; he had alternative plans.
The little devil would probably be happy to solve the clinical validation for him.
Oh right, this was originally part of his deal with the little devil.
Time stood still once more, and Huo Yuhao returned to that desolate world.
"Then show me your results." The little devil sat in the passenger seat, reaching behind him and demanding the meditation method from Huo Yuhao with a sense of entitlement.
"Uh," Huo Yuhao scratched his head, "I haven't written it yet."
"Then start writing now." The little devil handed Huo Yuhao a notebook and a pen. "Let's begin."
Huo Yuhao took it and began to seriously record the cultivation technique.
The content was not much; Huo Yuhao only wrote seven or eight pages.
"You should be careful of a clapper sound," the little devil kindly warned. "Although you may be able to block out the sound, it is dangerous for children coming from Black Swan Harbor."
Huo Yuhao was a little confused for a moment, but when he thought about the origins of the three Yuan siblings, he suddenly understood.
"So, in reality, all three children were being controlled?"
