Zhou You's test results caused quite a stir.

Those students who knew what he did on a daily basis were especially dumbfounded.

No way, you can cultivate so quickly if you're just idle all day? What about those of us who work hard and only make a little progress?

Can there really be such a vast difference in Talent between people?

At this moment, many trainees lost their composure and were somewhat absent-minded during the test.

It wasn't just their class taking the Soul Power test on the Drill Ground; there were also students from other classes, though they weren't next to each other, but they could still see what was happening here.

As the key class of the entire academy, Liu Suxin's class naturally attracted attention, so many people witnessed Zhou You's soul power test results.

The college is a closed little society where any news can spread at an extremely fast pace.

Moreover, students at the Spirit Hall Academy value their progress in cultivation most, somewhat like students in modern society comparing grades. For Soul Masters, the rate of increase in cultivation is their "achievement."

Based on this point alone, Zhou You is undoubtedly number one.

A six-year-old Soul Grandmaster? Good heavens, I've never heard of such a thing before, it's simply outrageous.

At this moment, Liu Suxin heard a commotion on the Drill Ground and belatedly realized that the noise seemed a bit too loud.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be felled by the wind; attracting attention too early is probably not a good thing.

So she immediately decided to exempt Zhou You from the practical assessment in an attempt to reduce the hype.

Anyway, this kid had already shown excellent combat skills when school started. At that time, his Soul Power was only level eleven, but his tactical thinking and adaptability were far above average, so there was really no need to conduct any further assessment.

What if a few more students lose their "spirit of faith"?

However, she did not announce this publicly, intending to inform others privately later.

After Zhou You finished testing his Soul Power, he walked directly off the stage, ignoring the awe, scrutiny, and envy in the eyes of those around him, and calmly headed towards the Library.

After his experience in the Soul Hunting Forest, he discovered that some of the books in the Library were quite useful and worth setting aside some time to read.

The crowd watched him leave, no longer surprised by the direction he was heading.

Some students even secretly wondered if there really was some kind of miraculous skill manual in the Library that could allow one's Soul Power cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds?

It's no wonder they think that way. Zhou You has only been in the hospital for about three months, and everyone's impression of him is still that Innate Full Soul Power, is very good in actual combat, and is a bit of a bookworm.

Many people paid close attention to his assessment, wanting to see if this genius would "crash" here. But in just three months, he jumped straight to level 20.

So this guy seems to be neglecting his duties, but in reality, he hasn't neglected anything. They really don't believe there's no reason behind this.

As he walked away, someone suddenly said, "How about we go to the Library later?"

He himself felt it was outrageous when he said it, but the people around him nodded silently, thinking, "Why not give it a try?"

So many people started discussing what they should read at the Library.

Xie Yue watched this scene with cold indifference, then turned away disdainfully, thinking, "A bunch of fools who take things for granted."

He was close to Yan and naturally knew what books Zhou You usually read, so he was well aware that Zhou You's purpose in reading was definitely different from what these people thought.

He couldn't quite put his finger on the differences, but Zhou You always seemed to have a great curiosity about very common phenomena and was always trying to get to the bottom of things.

Yan often complains that sometimes he can understand what Zhou You is saying, but he can't comprehend it, feeling that there's a fundamental difference in their thinking.

At that time, Xie Yue looked at him with disdain, thinking that it was his own ignorance and incompetence.

In fact, Xie Yue secretly tried to read some books in private, hoping to find the secret to Zhou You's becoming stronger.

But he soon discovered that this approach had almost no effect other than taking up his cultivation time, so he gave up on it.

He could only console himself that perhaps this method was simply not suitable for him.

He has his own rhythm.

At this moment, Liu Suxin had already called his name. Xie Yue was about to greet Hu Liena when he noticed that his younger sister was staring blankly at Zhou You's departing figure.

Xie Yue felt a sense of crisis.

As soon as Zhou You arrived at the Library, he saw his cheap senior brother standing at the entrance like a gatekeeper.

"Senior brother, is something up again this time?" Zhou You's expression was ambiguous, hinting at something.

Yang Tianxiong immediately understood that the kid had indeed seen through his previous attempt to fool him. He coughed a few times, ignoring the other person's words, and continued talking to himself.

"Elder She asked me to tell you that he has gone to your house now and is preparing to pick up your parents."

Zhou You frowned, but before he could ask any questions, Yang Tianxiong had already begun to explain.

"Don't misunderstand, it's just that you've made quite a commotion this time."

What noise?

Seeing his blank expression, Yang Tianxiong smiled and said, "You haven't forgotten your Soul Power test results, have you?"

Zhou You was even more surprised. "That's all?"

"This is no small matter." Yang Tianxiong immediately explained the implications, making Zhou You understand how astonishing it was that he had gone from Soul Master to Soul Grandmaster in just three months.

But Zhou You had only one thought at that moment, "Did the teacher find out about this so quickly?"

He had just finished the test and walked here from the Drill Ground in less than ten minutes, but She Long not only knew the result, he had already taken action.

Yang Tianxiong's expression was meaningful. "This academy is, after all, under the control of the Spirit Hall. How many of those students do you think are spies sent in by other forces?"

Just as the Spirit Hall sows spies within other forces, other forces will naturally do the same. The larger the organization, the more difficult it is to avoid this situation.

Zhou You didn't react much to this, just nodded to indicate that he understood, which made Yang Tianxiong feel a little disappointed.

He reached out his wicked hand and ruffled Zhou You's hair into a mess.

"Why does a little kid like you have to act so mature all the time? Look at Yan, he's so lively, you should learn from him!"

"Sorry, I can't learn it." Zhou You struggled for a long time before finally moving his hand away.

Being so young is such a hassle; anyone can easily take advantage of him.

"By the way, senior brother, has our teacher already set off?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, they should have already left Spirit City by now."

This level of initiative is truly...

Zhou You secretly felt a headache coming on.

Yang Tianxiong seemed to sense his distress, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou You's current worry is about his pet "Feidian." If She Long finds out about the little guy, he'll probably be killed on the spot.

But now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to confess. Any later, and it might be too late to even collect Feidian's body.

Having spent quite some time with him, Zhou You had developed a strong affection for the little guy.

"Senior brother, it's like this, I have a pet at home, it's a bit special, it's a Soul Beast..."
