Am I avoiding his sharpness?

After a long silence, the male teacher recorded the current match on the document in his hand and then announced the result.

"Newborn Class Nine's Moyuan, Bai Yi, and Nanmen Yun'er win, with one victory."

Hearing the referee announce the match result, the hundreds of students from nearby battle stages looked over in disbelief.

Are you kidding me? We all basically started fighting at the same time, right? We've only just released our martial souls and are still probing each other, and you're already done?!

But when these students saw Moyuan walking off the stage, their expressions shifted to understanding.

Fighting Moyuan? That makes sense then~

At this very moment, two distinctly different voices announced the match results.

"Newborn Class Five's Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and Cui Yajie win, with one victory."

"Newborn Class One's Wang Dong, Huo Yuhao, and Xiao Xiao win, with one victory."

As these two announcements were made, exclamations erupted in the assessment area. They hadn't expected that two other teams could finish their battles as quickly as Moyuan's team.

Moyuan, also hearing these two announcements, paused slightly and turned his head to look in their direction. Coincidentally, the sources of both voices came from the same direction, specifically assessment zones thirty-three and forty.

Moyuan recognized most of the three faces in assessment zone thirty-three: Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong, who lived directly opposite him, and a somewhat unfamiliar young girl. She had a delicate appearance, not exceptionally beautiful, but very pleasing to the eye.

Just as Moyuan looked towards assessment zone thirty-three, the three who had just finished their battle also turned their heads to look in his direction.

Wang Dong, who had been holding her chin high with a proud expression, couldn't help but frown slightly upon seeing Moyuan looking at her.

Although they lived opposite each other, they had only met two or three times in the past three months, essentially strangers.

Moreover, every time she saw Moyuan, she felt an inexplicable feeling, a mix of dislike and fear.

Huo Yuhao, standing beside her, didn't look over. He clenched his fists excitedly, his eyes burning as he looked at the stunned students below, as if all the suffering he had endured over the past three months was being released at this moment.

Moyuan glanced at Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong before looking past them, his gaze settling on the delicate-looking young girl.

Coincidentally, the young girl was also looking at him at that moment.

As Moyuan's gaze fell upon her, Xiao Xiao's face suddenly flushed with a shy blush, and she immediately lowered her head, not daring to look at Moyuan.

Seeing this, Bai Yi, who was also watching the opposite side, said with a sour tone, "Tsk tsk tsk, another little girl infatuated with you, Brother Mo. How many girls do you have around you now..."

"Aren't you the same?"

Moyuan glanced at Bai Yi. This kid was not lacking in looks or talent. Some female students who knew the gap between themselves and him was too large to have a chance with him, upon discovering Bai Yi, started pursuing him instead.

For the past three months, Bai Yi had been like a fresh flower, constantly attracting admirers.

Just then, Moyuan suddenly felt an unfriendly gaze fall upon him. Following the direction, he saw

In assessment zone forty, in the same direction as assessment zone thirty-three, a blonde young man was staring intently at him with cold eyes.

Beside the blonde young man were two young women with excellent looks and figures. The one who was soft and cat-like, the moment Moyuan's gaze landed on her, her peculiar pupils narrowed slightly, like a startled cat, exuding an extremely dangerous aura.

The other young woman was much more approachable. Facing Moyuan's gaze, a hint of charm appeared in her large pink eyes, and she gracefully nodded at Moyuan with a smile.

Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, Cui Yajie... Moyuan recited their names in his mind. As for the malice Dai Huabin showed him, he didn't take it to heart at all.

What kind of person is worthy of my attention?

"Huabin, calm down. I've investigated this Moyuan before, and the information is basically the same as what's circulating in the academy. He's a Soul Ancestor at the fourth soul ring, ten thousand years. If it's not necessary, we should avoid his sharp edge."

After Moyuan shifted his gaze away from her, Zhu Lu immediately breathed a sigh of relief and pulled on the cold-eyed Dai Huabin beside her, advising him.

Dai Huabin sneered upon hearing this, "Avoid his sharp edge? I, the son of the White Tiger Duke, should actively yield to a commoner? It would be shameful to even speak of it."

Despite his words, a hint of apprehension appeared in his eyes after hearing Moyuan's information. He took a deep look at Moyuan's group of three, who had already turned and left the assessment area, and then left with his own team.

As for Wang Dong's group, who also quickly finished their battle, he had no interest. Their team not only had no Soul Elders but also had a waste who was only at the first ring.

How could they attract my attention?

Unlike Dai Huabin's disdain for Huo Yuhao's group, Huo Yuhao, after a surge of excitement, recalled the names the referee had just announced.

Upon hearing the familiar name Dai Huabin, he immediately looked towards assessment zone forty. Seeing the familiar back, his face immediately contorted with extreme hatred.

Huo Yuhao harbored immense hatred for Dai Huabin, the son of his enemy. If not for the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in his Sea of Consciousness constantly reminding him to stay calm, he would have likely rushed forward to tear Dai Huabin apart with his bare hands.

"Huo Yuhao, what's wrong? The referee is urging us to get off the stage." Xiao Xiao, who was already descending the stage, asked when she saw Huo Yuhao still standing in the arena.

Xiao Xiao's words pulled Huo Yuhao, lost in his hatred, back to reality. He took another deep look at Dai Huabin's rapidly disappearing back, then turned and followed Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao off the stage.

The first round of the New Student Assessment quickly concluded. As for the subsequent two days of assessment, they were undoubtedly a tough battle for the other new student teams. However, for Moyuan and his companions, they were incredibly simple.

After displaying strength far beyond that of ordinary students, the remaining teams in assessment area nineteen, when facing Moyuan's trio, offered only token resistance before directly conceding.

This action was not shameful. After all, even if they fought with all their might, the outcome would not change in the slightest, and it would also waste their stamina and Soul Power, increasing the risk of elimination.

During these three days of assessment, Moyuan continued with the plan. He would not make a move unless he encountered a team led by a Soul Elder.

Yet, even fighting two against three, Bai Yi and Nanmen Yun'er still effortlessly won every match.

After three days of the first round of assessment, the New Student Assessment was essentially over. During these three days, geniuses emerged, receiving cheers, while many students shed tears on the spot.

But rules were rules. The only outcome for failing the assessment was to leave the academy.

After the first round of assessments, there was a day of rest. It was on this day that more than half of the trainees would leave with their luggage, their expressions dejected.

"Brother Mo, if we weren't geniuses, if our talent wasn't good enough, would we be packing our things and heading back home as helplessly as they are now?"

Bai Yi stood by the dormitory window, watching the dispirited figures leave, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Moyuan withdrew from his meditation upon hearing this. He glanced out the window and said in a calm tone, "But we have talent, don't we? Besides, those trainees were only eliminated because they lost at Shrek Academy. This doesn't mean they'll all end up like this in the future. It's just one path; if one doesn't work, you find another."

"Find another path?" Bai Yi repeated the words and then chuckled softly.

"But this is the Douluo Continent. The only path for a Soul Master has always been to become stronger. And talent determines everything. The law of the jungle prevails here. It's good enough for the weak to live a peaceful life.

As for ordinary people... if they're unlucky, they might be blown to smithereens by an attack from who knows where while just staying at home. How tragic..."

Moyuan looked at Bai Yi with some surprise upon hearing this. He had been on the Douluo Continent for twelve years, and this was the first time he had heard such words from a Soul Master, especially from a genius like Bai Yi, who possessed the potential to become a Titled Douluo.

And then there are those who see a few similarities with other books and immediately accuse me of plagiarism. Are these people's brains okay? What kind of book is this?

It's a fanfiction, a Douluo fanfiction at that. There are over ten thousand Douluo fanfictions on Qidian! When writing this type of story, who can claim their book has no similarities with others?

And about that plot with Ma Xiaotao, that is indeed a problem. After all, I saw many people writing it that way in Douluo 2 fanfictions a few years ago. Now, with the intense opposition, writing it will lead to scolding. I admit this. It's my fault for not catering to the market.

Go ahead and scold if you want. The Lunar New Year is approaching. The author here wishes you all a reunion dinner all by yourself, and your selfies will be your family photos.
