Eye of Illusory Break, the Cunning Huo Yuhao

Smack!

The fiery red whip lashed fiercely against the ground, producing a crisp crack.

Having successfully dodged one of Teacher Liu's attacks, Huo Yuhao did not dare let his guard down in the slightest and swiftly widened the distance between them.

Yet everyone present was somewhat dumbfounded when they saw this.

After all, what Huo Yuhao had dodged was an attack from a Shrek Academy Teacher!

Although she had not used a Soul Skill against Huo Yuhao,

being able to serve as a Shrek Academy Teacher already spoke volumes about her caliber.

Logically speaking, Huo Yuhao should have been instantly defeated by her.

Who would have thought that he would dodge it at such a critical moment?

Thus, many of the parents and children preparing to register were rather surprised by what they saw.

They began to regard Huo Yuhao in a new light.

"Still, this is only the beginning."

"Even if this child is fairly strong, lasting an incense stick's worth of time under that teacher will be extremely difficult."

They still did not believe that Huo Yuhao could hold out.

Although Huo Yuhao's ability to evade Teacher Liu's attack just now had been quite impressive,

it had merely been Teacher Liu testing the waters.

She could use up to three Soul Rings. If she used them one by one, they truly did not think Huo Yuhao would be able to endure.

Therefore, most of the parents and children present remained firm in their initial beliefs.

"An Original Martial Soul? Quite rare."

Teacher Liu also remarked in surprise.

She was, after all, a teacher with extensive knowledge.

At a glance, she could tell that Huo Yuhao had relied on his eyes to evade her attack just now.

She looked toward the incense stick beneath the stage.

At that moment, it had only just begun to burn.

In other words, Huo Yuhao still had a long way to go before completing the assessment.

Teacher Liu adjusted the frame of her black glasses with one hand and smiled at Huo Yuhao in front of her.

"What an interesting little fellow. I hope you can give me another surprise."

With that, she once again raised her little red whip and lashed it toward Huo Yuhao.

The battle between the two began anew.

After her previous attack had failed, Teacher Liu became much more serious.

When she attacked Huo Yuhao again, her speed, strength, and precision had all increased considerably.

Seeing such terrifying attacks, many parents below the stage could not help drawing sharp breaths.

It had to be said that Shrek Academy's teachers were indeed highly accomplished.

Teacher Liu before them was not actually that old. She looked to be at most in her early twenties.

Yet at such a young age, she already possessed the cultivation of a Soul Emperor, and wielded her little whip with consummate mastery.

Many of the parents present were also Soul Masters, but compared to Teacher Liu, they felt ashamed of their own inadequacy.

Had they taken the stage, they might not have been able to hold out either.

But Huo Yuhao's performance was also outstanding.

Relying on the Eye of Illusory Break, although he looked somewhat bedraggled whenever he dodged,

he ultimately avoided every one of her attacks.

This left the parents below increasingly shocked.

At last, they could not help but speak up:

"This child's predictions are incredible!"

"He actually dodged every one of Teacher Liu's attacks."

"Could he really pass the assessment?"

At last, some of the parents changed their minds.

After all, from the beginning of the assessment until now, Huo Yuhao had displayed remarkable ability.

He had abundant combat experience, nimble movement techniques, and, most importantly, a pair of Eyes of Illusory Break.

Under such circumstances, he had repeatedly evaded Teacher Liu's attacks.

So if he could continue holding on, he might really pass the assessment.

Meanwhile,

Tang Ya and Bei Bei were also staring in astonishment.

However, what shocked them was not Huo Yuhao's nimble footwork, rich combat techniques, or sharp predictions.

What stunned them the most was Huo Yuhao's Soul Skill.

Both of them knew that Huo Yuhao's first Soul Skill was Mental Sharing.

Thus, after pondering for a while, Tang Ya could not help asking Bei Bei, "Bei Bei, if I remember correctly, Yuhao Didi's Soul Skill doesn't seem to be this, does it?"

Bei Bei nodded in reply.

"That's right. Yuhao's first Soul Skill is Mental Sharing. It definitely isn't this."

Tang Ya became even more puzzled. "Then what is he using?"

Bei Bei replied, "Teacher Xiao Ya, look carefully. Yuhao isn't actually using a Soul Skill right now."

"Because when he uses a Soul Skill, his Soul Ring will emit a faint glow. But if you look carefully, you'll find that Yuhao's Soul Ring isn't glowing at all right now."

Tang Ya hurriedly observed him. After examining him for a moment, she was greatly startled. "It really isn't! Bei Bei, you're so observant!"

"But, Bei Bei, if Yuhao Didi isn't using a Soul Skill, then what is he using? Could it be some secret art similar to those of our Tang Sect?"

Bei Bei shook his head. "I don't know about that."

"However, in our world, aside from these secret arts, there is another kind of thing known as a Self-Created Soul Skill."

"Yuhao may have learned a secret art from another sect, but he may also be using a Self-Created Soul Skill. It may sound unbelievable, but there are indeed geniuses capable of creating Soul Skills themselves."

Tang Ya froze on the spot upon hearing this.

Soon, she could not help sighing in admiration. "I never expected Yuhao Didi to be this amazing."

"No wonder he was completely unmoved when I tried to tempt him with the Tang Sect's secret arts before."

"So he had already mastered secret arts or a Self-Created Soul Skill himself."

Bei Bei nodded from the side and said,

"And Teacher Xiao Ya, there's something else you haven't noticed."

"Yuhao is very cunning."

"He deliberately summoned a Soul Ring in order to mislead Teacher Liu and deceive her into thinking that this was Yuhao's first Soul Skill."

"But in truth, he still hasn't used his Mental Sharing. That Soul Skill can also be used on himself. Once he uses it, Yuhao will be able to observe his surroundings in greater detail and evade Teacher Liu's attacks more effectively."

"And every time he dodges, he deliberately puts on a bedraggled appearance, giving Teacher Liu the illusion that she will defeat him soon."

"But in reality, Yuhao can dodge her attacks with ease. He is only doing this to make Teacher Liu lower her guard."

Tang Ya was completely stunned upon hearing this.

"Yuhao Didi is that amazing?"

She was truly dumbfounded.

After all, if Bei Bei had not carefully observed everything and told her,

even she, as a spectator, would not have noticed many of these details.

That was even more true for Teacher Liu, who was directly involved.

Thus, Tang Ya was shocked after learning this.

She understood more and more just how formidable Huo Yuhao was.

"No, why has this child been dodging all my attacks?"

"Oh no, I've fallen for it."

"He did it on purpose!"

On the dueling stage, Teacher Liu finally realized that something was wrong.

She looked at the incense stick below the stage and discovered that it had already burned through two-thirds.

Yet on her side, not a single attack had struck Huo Yuhao.

This made Teacher Liu completely understand.

So she had been thoroughly played by Huo Yuhao all along.
