Huo Yuhao Had a Wife

All in all, Huo Yuhao had lost an Immortal Herb and gained a wife.

The New Student Assessment was in full swing. Compared to the matches on the first and second days, the competition on the third day would be even fiercer.

The teams that had lost all five of their previous matches had already left Shrek Academy. Of the remaining 170 teams, another twenty would have to leave.

The final 150 teams would send their top 64 into the final Elimination Round.

Huo Yuhao Team had won all five of their matches. This time, when they arrived at District 33, they were surprised to find two brand-new teams and six unfamiliar faces.

Seeing that all six teams had arrived, Wang Yan nodded and announced, "New Student Assessment, Day Three, Round One, Match One: Huo Yuhao Team versus Xie Huanyue Team."

Both teams had won all five of their matches. The draw was terribly unfair to Huo Yuhao Team, because in tiny District 33, the newly arrived Xie Huanyue Team and Ning Tian Team had both won all five of their matches.

"Good grief! I think the academy's deliberately messing with us. We have to compete five times in one day, and two of our opponents have won all five of their matches!" Xiao Xiao couldn't help complaining.

"Boss Huo, I know you haven't been going all out these past few days. But today, other than making eggs, there's nothing I can do to help in the match." As a Food System Soul Master, combat wasn't Song Hanqing's strong suit.

"Fine. Let me show you what I can really do." Huo Yuhao planned to finish the match quickly today.

"New Student Class One, Huo Yuhao."

"New Student Class One, Xiao Xiao."

"New Student Class One, Song Hanqing."

Huo Yuhao looked at the three approaching opponents. One of them was Xie Huanyue, a fat boy as big as a small hill. The other two were slender, with unusually long arms: Luo Tianlong and Luo Tianba, a pair of brothers.

"New Student Class Two, Xie Huanyue."

"New Student Class Two, Luo Tianlong."

"New Student Class Two, Luo Tianba."

Seeing that both sides were ready, Wang Yan immediately called, "The assessment begins!"

Huo Yuhao opened his eyes, and an indescribable aura spread across the arena. He was unusually serious today. As three Soul Rings rose beneath his feet, the Black Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring blazed brilliantly.

"Not good! Huo Yuhao has never used a Ten Thousand Year Soul Skill in a match before. Everyone, be careful!" Xie Huanyue's tiny, bean-like eyes widened in alarm as three Soul Rings rose beneath his feet as well. Unlike Huo Yuhao's unusual Soul Ring Configuration, his was the ideal Two Yellow One Purple.

Meanwhile, the Luo brothers hid behind Xie Huanyue. Xie Huanyue's body began to swell like a balloon, growing larger and larger. His skin turned black, and he beat his chest with both fists, producing a dull thud.

"Hanqing, give us your eggs."

Song Hanqing's face fell. "Class monitor! Please watch your language."

The first and second Soul Rings beneath Song Hanqing's feet flashed, and a silvery-white egg and a fiery-red egg appeared in Huo Yuhao's hands.

The instant Huo Yuhao swallowed them, he felt his Mental Power and speed increase by ten percent. Don't underestimate that ten percent. In battle, it would raise Huo Yuhao's Mental Power and speed to 110 percent.

Huo Yuhao's double pupils reappeared. In that instant, Xie Huanyue and the Luo brothers, who were hiding behind him, couldn't move. Time froze.

"First Soul Skill, Years Erasure."

Using the momentum of Xiao Xiao's Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, Huo Yuhao leaped into the air. As he rose, a gray Time Roulette appeared. He thrust his right palm downward, pressing the roulette like the Buddha's Palm. The moment it descended, a terrifying aura instantly warped Xie Huanyue's body. The Luo brothers were forced to crawl on the ground, unable to move.

Wang Yan couldn't believe his eyes. Before, Huo Yuhao's first Soul Skill had always frozen his opponents first, then used Years Erasure to finish them off.

But this time, Huo Yuhao's "all-out" attack immediately put the three opponents under unprecedented pressure.

Wang Yan flashed forward and raised his right hand, meeting Huo Yuhao's Years Erasure head-on.

Huo Yuhao had never intended to kill them. The instant the roulette descended, he pulled back in time. His palm met Wang Yan's, then quickly separated.

"Teacher Wang Yan, you can announce the match results now." Huo Yuhao smiled at Wang Yan, then looked toward the four teams watching below.

The students from all four teams looked shaken. If they put themselves in the other team's shoes, could they really have withstood Huo Yuhao's Years Erasure?

"Elder Xuan, you deliberately arranged for Huo Yuhao Team to face two teams that had won all five of their matches. Isn't that a little unfair to them?" Du Weilun looked at the old man sitting on the nearby raised platform, munching on a chicken leg and drinking wine, and asked helplessly.

After taking a drink, Xuan Zi smiled. "Pressure brings motivation. The strength this little fellow Huo Yuhao has shown so far is astonishing. Even at his age, I never had strength that terrifying."

"His Body Martial Soul is his eyes, yet he possesses an exceptionally rare Time Attribute. I think only the Body Sect could give me an answer."

Du Weilun was stunned. "Could Huo Yuhao be from the Body Sect?"

Xuan Zi shot Du Weilun an exasperated look. "The Body Sect is where Body Martial Soul Soul Masters from all over the world gather. They're extremely protective of their own. And whenever they discover someone with a Body Martial Soul, even if that person is from Shrek Academy, that Old Poison will come knocking to take them away. Do you think that old geezer Du Busi would let a student like Huo Yuhao come to our Shrek Academy?"

Du Weilun realized that Xuan Zi had a point, and stopped dwelling on it.

Huo Yuhao, Xiao Xiao, and Song Hanqing won both of their morning matches.

After a brief lunch break, Huo Yuhao Team faced Ning Tian Team in their first match of the afternoon.

"New Student Class Nine, Wu Feng."

"New Student Class Nine, Nanmen Yun'er."

"New Student Class Nine, Ning Tian."

Among the three girls opposite them, Ning Tian came from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Wu Feng wore a Fiery Red Tight Suit that clung to her figure. Though she had only just turned twelve, she had the best figure of the three. Nanmen Yun'er was the most ordinary-looking. In the presence of Ning Tian, a Soul Master with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower, nearly all of Nanmen Yun'er's light was eclipsed.

Huo Yuhao and his teammates introduced themselves and their class in turn. The moment Wang Yan announced the start of the match—

Both sides released their Martial Souls. But this time, Huo Yuhao's Time Freeze had no effect on Ning Tian Team.

"Seven Treasures Turn Out Glazed Tile. Second, Dispel." Ning Tian smiled as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower in her hand shimmered with brilliant, multicolored light. Her second Soul Ring turned, and Time Freeze lost its effect.

Wu Feng laughed triumphantly. "Huo Yuhao, your Time Freeze is useless against Ning Tian's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower. We're taking this match!"

Xiao Xiao and Song Hanqing's expressions changed. For the first time, someone had countered Huo Yuhao's Time Freeze. Now they would have to face the powerful attacks of two Soul Grandmasters and a Soul Elder.

Huo Yuhao remained completely calm, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly. "Who says I can't deal with you just because I can't freeze time? I'm especially good at fighting with my fists and feet. I finally get to show off."

At Huo Yuhao's words, Wu Feng, Ning Tian, and Nanmen Yun'er all froze. The next second, Huo Yuhao was already right in front of them.
