The freshman assessment was in full swing and proceeding rapidly. Under the high-intensity, high-pressure battles against low-level Soul Masters, with one day of assessment followed by one day of rest, most of the first-year students were eliminated in the battles and received expulsion notices from Shrek Academy.
Then, amidst their resentment and slight anger, the various advanced academy admissions offices guarding the gates of Shrek Academy quickly divided up these dropout junior soul masters based on their age, level, martial soul attribute, examination reports, and teacher evaluations.
Standing in front of the gates of Shrek Academy, looking at the behavior that had formed rules and tacit understandings, and might have truly become an industry chain, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.
After all, a student who can truly persevere at Shrek Academy for more than a month and survive the first round of selections can be considered above average even on the mainland.
Before he could finish his sigh, a faint, cool fragrance, like a lotus blooming in a secluded valley, wafted over, and a female voice came from a place Huo Yuhao hadn't even noticed.
"Now that you know Xiao Tao and I crippled that old witch, why is no one pursuing the matter anymore? She broke the rules for the sake of her own face! She broke a huge, huge rule! She ruined the path of many Soul Masters, so why should she suffer this calamity?"
"Of course, she knows exactly what she did, so she has never left Shrek Academy since she started teaching. However, she doesn't realize that some retribution is not that it won't come, but that it's just that the time hasn't come yet!"
"However, recalling the look in her eyes when I crippled her, she probably never dreamed that someone would actually dare to cripple her at Shrek Academy, right? So, little one, cherish your current kindness and try to keep it forever!"
After saying that, Bei Mingshuang, who had suddenly appeared for some unknown reason, also disappeared in a gust of cold wind, leaving behind only a snowflake the size of half of Huo Yuhao's palm, with a texture like cold jade.
"Is this master always so elusive?"
Reaching out to catch the ice crystal snowflakes floating in mid-air, a refreshing and invigorating feeling that went straight to the soul also entered Huo Yuhao's body and mind, adding another layer of protection to his extreme personality, which was formed due to the various hardships he suffered in his childhood.
"I was wondering how to persuade Xue Di and the others to help you, but now I didn't expect Xue'er to have already considered this step."
"The Xuanbing Marrow, condensed from her primordial power, may lack the miraculous craftsmanship of natural creation, but it is remarkably effective in calming the mind and resisting external demons! Take it with you."
"I understand, Tianmeng... Sister."
Although he had always known that the Soul Master world was full of all sorts of strange and wonderful Soul Skills and Treasures, Huo Yuhao still felt somewhat complicated when he heard that his brother Tianmeng had undergone a gender reassignment surgery for his future happiness.
Shaking his head to clear his mind, he faced the final round of the freshman assessment, facing Dai Huabin, whom he had wanted to get rid of countless times.
After taking a few deep breaths, Huo Yuhao, who would no longer easily go to extremes or fall into madness, relied on the Xuanbing Marrow left by Bei Mingshuang and the spiritual beacon he had found again. He turned and headed towards the final arena, where he saw Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao running towards him.
"Mom, the feelings you've always described to me... I think I feel them too..."
—————
The atmosphere on the Shrek Academy's Soul Arena today was somber that many Soul Masters watching felt a sense of oppression.
Even though the atmosphere between the captains of the two teams standing on the battle stage today, and the killing intent in their eyes, could make everyone realize that this was a shocking scandal, only a few people could now sit back and enjoy the show.
"Hmm, do you think that pretty boy from Huo Yuhao's team in Class 2 of the freshmen can still win today? You know, his opponents are the Star Luo Dai family and the Star Luo Zhu family, who possess the Netherworld White Tiger Martial Soul Fusion Technique?"
"Calling him a pretty boy is going too far! Although that kid's soul power level is indeed a bit low, and he always moves like an idiot in battle with very little movement, try taking a hit from those soul-guided ray guns he's holding! Do you really think that just because your soul is a tortoise, you can be like Xu Sanshi?"
"What are you bunch of weaklings from the Soul Guidance Department yelling about? You're just trash who know how to cheat with Soul Guidance Devices. How dare you talk to us Martial Soul Department like that? If you're so tough, why don't you use those over-specification fixed-position Soul Guidance Cannons to fight someone of the same realm!"
"Damn it! Muscle gorilla, if you're so capable, why don't you just not use your soul skills!"
The crowd below was noisy and chaotic, and the academy leaders above looked on with amusement, but none of this seemed to affect the two people present at this moment.
The killing intent was evident in their gazes as they stared at each other. Huo Yuhao put away his soul-guided ray gun, took out a pair of ice-blue knuckle dusters and put them on himself. He nodded to his two teammates, leaving everything else to them.
His eyes shone with an icy blue light, and he exuded the aura of a level 20 quasi-Great Soul Master. His first Soul Ring, which was infinitely close to a thousand years old, kept rising and falling around him. Together with Huo Yuhao, they rushed towards Dai Huabing, who had also activated his Martial Soul at this moment. Dai Huabing had three Soul Rings, two yellow and one purple, and was rushing towards Huo Yuhao with a smirk.
boom!
The icy blue soul power left a faint layer of frost on Dai Huabin's body the moment it touched him.
When the tiger claw collided with the knuckle duster, it shook Dai Huabin's huge tiger paw open a bit and covered it with a thin layer of ice. It was also shaken by Dai Huabin's soul power and was forced to take several steps back, and its palm went numb.
A faint purple light appeared in his eyes, and a trace of jade color flashed on his clenched knuckle fists. He used Ghost Shadow Illusion, relying on the low consumption of soul power and the huge advantage of his first soul skill and the full field of vision. After using the Jade Hand to enhance the toughness and strength of his arms and close the gap, he calmed down and began to consume Dai Huabin's strength and soul power.
"Purple Demon Eyes, Jade Hands, Ghostly Shadows? Tang Ya is really generous! She didn't even test him before passing on her most treasured skills. After all, without the Mysterious Heaven Skill, that kid Huo Yuhao couldn't have fought a Soul Venerable for so long."
They shifted their gaze away from Wang Dong, who was flying in the sky, wielding the Haotian Hammer, and single-handedly attacking Zhu Lu and Cui Yajie.
After glancing at Huo Yuhao, who was able to fight Dai Huabin, who was already a Soul Master, to a standstill with his near-Great Soul Master status, Yan Shaozhe continued to express his admiration for the Tang Sect's legacy with the arrogance of the Dean of the Martial Soul Department of Shrek Academy.
Qian Duoduo, who had always disliked Yan Shaozhe's foul face, gritted her teeth for a moment, then her eyes flickered, and she slowly said something.
"Old Yan, don't be too picky. Don't look down on this and that. What if you actually meet someone you respect, but they look down on you instead?"
As she spoke, Qian Duoduo also recalled Bei Mingshuang and Ma Xiaotao, who had infuriated Yan Shaozhe a few years ago but ultimately had no choice but to give up. The smile on her lips became even more pronounced.
Suddenly, a terrifying killing intent erupted from Yan Shaozhe's body.
