Though most of it had been intermittent due to their condition.

They had gained something in the end.

As for being eliminated?

They had long forgotten about it.

Zhou Yi appeared silently, waving her hand to set up a Soul Power barrier, her eyes full of gratification.

With Huo Yuhao taking the lead, it became easy to pick out the talents worth cultivating.

As for the dozen or so people who had left the group, unless they possessed some exceptionally astounding talent, Zhou Yi had already eliminated them.

—Although Shrek was an academy, it also bore the responsibility of safeguarding peace across the continent!

They did not even care about collective honor and chose to flee at a critical moment.

If resources were lavished on people like them, they might cultivate some ungrateful wretches who would turn around and bite Shrek instead!

More than ten minutes later.

Huo Yuhao ended his cultivation and rose at the right moment. The clatter of his iron armor woke the others.

Zhou Yi withdrew the Soul Power barrier and nodded to the man in white.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

Two yellow, two purple, and three black Soul Rings rose around him. A gentle green glow emanated from his palm, growing into a towering tree that scattered seventy-four leaves, one landing on each person.

"Ah~"

"Awesome!"

"Hiss—"

Strange sounds rose one after another.

Muscle soreness, scraped wounds, depleted stamina—all of it recovered at an astonishing speed.

Not far away.

The nineteen students who had been too ashamed to come over immediately edged closer.

Yet even after it was over, no leaves fell upon them.

Seeing the man in white put away his Martial Soul.

Someone panicked!

"Wait! We haven't been treated yet!"

"Yeah! We're students of Class One too!"

"This is prejudice! This is discriminatory treatment!"

The man in white looked at Zhou Yi. She decisively shook her head, cupped her hands, and spoke to him quietly for a few moments.

The man in white sighed helplessly, lightly tapped off the ground with his toes, and drifted away.

Zhou Yi swept a cold gaze over the nineteen of them.

"Don't say I never gave you a chance."

"If you can find a class willing to take you in, do so as soon as possible."

"If you insist on staying, then don't even think about getting a single share of the resources I, Zhou Yi, pulled favors to obtain!"

The aura of a six-ring Soul Emperor burst forth, forcibly shutting them up.

Then she turned and left as well.

As for last-place elimination...

If she did not mention it, would anyone else dare bring it up?

"S-So, it's over?"

"Old Witch Teacher Zhou has left. Of course it's over!"

"Long live the class monitor!"

"Long live Yuhao!"

"Huo Yuhao! You're my god!"

The recovered students worked together to lift Huo Yuhao up, tossing him high into the air, catching him, then tossing him high again.

Meanwhile, Zhuge Lan in the spiritual world also received a huge wave of Luck Value.

He could not help clicking his tongue in wonder.

"This Luck Value comes so easily."

"I almost want to persuade Little Yuhao to go back, kill the White Tiger Duke, and take command of the army himself."

"He'd definitely gain quite a bit of Luck Value every day."

Hearing that, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was tempted as well.

"Why not... give it a try?"

"Try my ass." Zhuge Lan laughed. "Military life isn't suited for a Soul Master's cultivation. Hard power is what matters. Don't forget, Little Yuhao is going to become a god."

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm: "..."

You were the one who brought it up first!!!

But it had gotten smarter too. It knew that if it argued reasonably, Zhuge Lan would eventually bring up, "Do you want to awaken psychic power or not?"

So it simply shut up and plunged headfirst into the ground.

I'm going to sleep. I'm ignoring you!

Zhuge Lan did not care and continued watching through the spiritual world.

Huo Yuhao had already been put down. He told everyone to put away their iron clothes, and they left in groups of two or three.

Wang Dong walked with him, along with a green-haired little girl who stared at Huo Yuhao with shining eyes.

Rewriting Xiao Xiao's fate, +250 Luck Value!

Huh?

What was going on?

Could it be...

"Class Monitor, my name is Xiao Xiao. Thank you for pulling me along just now!" Xiao Xiao said gratefully. "Otherwise, with my physique, I might have been eliminated!"

Zhuge Lan slapped his palm!

That was it!

Xiao Xiao no longer liked Wang Dong, the "handsome guy," and had instead fallen for Huo Yuhao, whose personal charm was off the charts!

Interesting.

Huo Yuhao, subjected to Xiao Xiao's burning gaze, only felt helpless and awkward.

"Ah, we're classmates. It was only natural."

"Only classmates?" Xiao Xiao boldly asked. "Couldn't we go a step further? For example..."

"Xiao Xiao!" Huo Yuhao loudly interrupted. "If we get to the cafeteria too late, there won't be any good food left. Hurry, hurry!"

Then he took off running.

Xiao Xiao chased after him relentlessly, her little legs moving so fast they left afterimages.

"Class Monitor, wait for me!"

Huo Yuhao ran even faster.

Wang Dong burst out laughing at the sight. So you were afraid of something too!

By the time they reached the cafeteria.

Huo Yuhao held a tray in each hand and tilted his head at Wang Dong, signaling toward Xiao Xiao behind them.

Wang Dong: ???

What kind of encrypted language was that? She did not understand it at all.

Huo Yuhao: "..."

"Idiot." Zhuge Lan instructed. "Use Spirit Sharing. Use the same method we use to converse and transmit what you want to say."

"Huh?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm interjected. "You can do that?"

Don't worry, Hao Dong locked. There was no way Huo Yuhao would be getting a harem!

But the protagonist could start one, though. Everyone could guess how?

Hint: As a system, the protagonist could not leave Huo Yuhao and act independently!

Whoever guessed correctly would get a bonus chapter named after them after the story went premium!

A Heart-to-Heart: Winning Over Wang Dong'er!

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's question was something Zhuge Lan had never expected.

"What? A Million-Year Soul Beast like you only knows this much?"

"I don't like fighting, and I prefer being alone. I never studied these things," Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said somewhat guiltily.

"Oh? Are you sure it wasn't because you spent your days eating and sleeping in the Ten Thousand Year Profound Ice Marrow, then got caught the moment you left and turned into a power bank?" Zhuge Lan exposed him without mercy.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm let out an angry howl and vanished.

It tunneled underground again.

But Huo Yuhao could tell from their conversation that this method would work.

He immediately followed the instructions, activating his First Soul Skill, Spirit Sharing, and focused his mind to communicate.

Wang Dong, save me! Hurry and distract Xiao Xiao!

Wang Dong stared at Huo Yuhao in confusion and pointed at her own head.

Are you talking?

—She did not know the technique for mental communication and could not send a reply back.

It's me, Huo Yuhao. Help me out!

Wang Dong raised her brows in surprise and walked over.

Under Huo Yuhao's expectant gaze, she took one of the trays, waved at Xiao Xiao, and said,

"I won't interrupt your little world for two anymore. Bye-bye~"

Then she turned and left.

She left!

Leaving the petrified Huo Yuhao to be dragged away by Xiao Xiao.

Backstabbed!

Betrayed!

Wang Dong, you betrayed my trust!!!

Huo Yuhao, who was not good at refusing people, finally managed to free himself from Xiao Xiao's grasp with great difficulty.

He angrily rushed back to the dormitory, intending to have a proper word with Wang Dong.

He used his key to open the door directly. This time, he was not stopped outside, but a cloud of mist slapped him in the face.

What was going on?

Instinctively, he summoned his Spirit Eyes. Through the mist, he saw a fair back, rounded shoulders, and a slender waist. The figure was not tall, but had a pair of straight, long legs, with water droplets sliding smoothly down them.

Huo Yuhao's first thought was—They're so smooth. There definitely isn't any leg hair!

"Ah!!!"
