New Student Assessment, Seed Team

Hiss—

Qian Duoduo stared fixedly at the four Spirit Rings on the Drunken Sword Immortal, then sharply sucked in another breath!

The first Spirit Ring was already thousand-year, and the third was even ten-thousand-year. Just what was Huo Yuhao's second Martial Soul?

How could it enhance his body so dramatically that he could withstand such an outrageous Spirit Ring configuration?!

At last, Qian Duoduo exhausted all his strength to recover the rationality expected of a big shot in the soul master world.

Light flickered in his eyes as a powerful surge of Spiritual Power burst from his body, enveloping Huo Yuhao and thoroughly examining him.

Only after a long while did he withdraw his Spiritual Power and let out a relieved breath.

Yes, he had suspected that Huo Yuhao might be some Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast reincarnated and cultivating anew. Otherwise, how could his cultivation have improved so quickly?

Fortunately, however, the examination results told him that Huo Yuhao was a genuine human being.

Thinking of Huo Yuhao's Twin Martial Souls, Qian Duoduo shook his head mockingly. He had truly been shocked senseless. If a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast had rebuilt its cultivation, how could it possibly possess Twin Martial Souls?

Not to mention that one was an eye, while the other was a purely humanoid Martial Soul.

"Looks like another miracle is about to appear in the soul master world." Qian Duoduo looked at Huo Yuhao before him and finally sighed.

Suddenly, Qian Duoduo seemed to recall something. He hurriedly took another small identity Token from his Storage Soul Tool and handed it to Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, from today onward, you are a Core Disciple of our Soul Tool Department. This is your identity Token. Be sure to keep it safe."

Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow and accepted it with a smile. "Yes, thank you, Teacher."

He understood very clearly just how terrifying the Talent he had revealed moments ago was. Qian Duoduo was obviously afraid that Yan Shaozhe would poach him!

After thinking for a moment, Qian Duoduo took out another card and handed it to Huo Yuhao.

"Yuhao, this is Teacher's Meal Card. You can use it from now on."

"You're still young and at the age when you're growing. Your nutrition has to keep up at this stage. Use this card whenever you go to the cafeteria. As long as you don't waste anything, order whatever you want. Don't stand on ceremony."

Qian Duoduo's eyes shone as he stared at Huo Yuhao, though his tone was exceptionally gentle.

Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback before accepting it.

"Thank you, Teacher."

This time, his tone was far more sincere as well.

Qian Duoduo might be wealthy, but Huo Yuhao knew that the top-tier meals in the cafeteria were not cheap.

Three meals a day, year after year, would definitely amount to no small expense.

Seeing the gratitude in Huo Yuhao's eyes, Qian Duoduo smiled.

By now, he had finally recovered from the shock Huo Yuhao had given him.

After a brief pause for thought, Qian Duoduo said, "Yuhao, since you now have the cultivation of a Soul Ancestor, you can begin studying Soul Tools."

"Also, your New Student Assessment is coming up soon. How about this—you don't need to attend classes with your class for the time being. In any case, you'll be reassigned after the New Student Assessment."

"Before the Assessment, I'll personally teach you and help you make up for the lessons you missed."

"Additionally, I'll begin teaching you Soul Tools. With your current cultivation and the foundation of your Spiritual Martial Soul after its Second Awakening, you should see results quickly. It will also let me see how much potential you have in Soul Tools."

Huo Yuhao nodded with a smile. "All right. I'll follow Teacher's arrangements."

Qian Duoduo looked at this miraculous young man, his eyes full of amazement. "Mm, go back to the classroom for now. Today, each class teacher will be issuing notices about the New Student Assessment, so go listen in. Starting tomorrow, I'll teach you personally."

Huo Yuhao agreed and left Qian Duoduo's office.

After Huo Yuhao left, Qian Duoduo excitedly paced back and forth through his office. Then he picked up the Communication Soul Tool on his desk and dialed a number. "Hello, Lin Er? Come over for a moment. I have something important to discuss with you."

By the time Huo Yuhao returned to the classroom, Mu Jin had just finished the day's lesson and was preparing to announce matters concerning the New Student Assessment.

Under everyone's watchful gazes, Huo Yuhao calmly returned to his seat.

"Cough, cough!"

Seeing that everyone's attention had been drawn to Huo Yuhao, Mu Jin coughed twice and pulled their gazes back.

With a serious expression, she said, "More than two months have passed since the start of term, and you are about to face your first Assessment since entering Shrek Academy."

"Only by passing the Assessment can you truly become members of Shrek Academy. Barring any surprises, you will be able to remain at the academy and cultivate at least until the first-year graduation examination."

As soon as Mu Jin finished speaking, every student in the classroom became solemn. Even the few who had still been sneaking glances at Huo Yuhao all turned to look at her, growing serious.

"There is only one reason Shrek Academy is hailed as the number one Soul Master Academy on the continent: the soul masters trained by our academy are basically invincible among those of the same rank and can fight opponents above their level!"

A dazzling divine light suddenly bloomed in Mu Jin's eyes as she said excitedly, "What is the standard by which a powerful soul master is measured? Spirit Rings? Spirit Bones? Or rank? No—the only answer is actual combat ability!"

"Therefore, your New Student Assessment will take the form of actual combat. You will form teams of three and compete in practical battles!"

Upon hearing this, all the students instinctively began looking around the classroom for classmates who might become their teammates.

Ning Tian, meanwhile, looked toward Huo Yuhao.

Mu Jin swept her gaze across the room and smiled. "After this period of study, I've gained some understanding of each of your abilities. Therefore, I've already prepared a preliminary grouping plan for you."

At Mu Jin's words, most of the students' eyes lit up as they listened attentively.

"According to the document issued by the academy, each team may have at most one Assault System Battle Soul Master, while the other two members may be assigned freely."

"Therefore, my suggested team arrangements are as follows: Team One: Zong Erhe, Qiu Xueshan, Ming Tai. Team Two: Chi Yu."

As she read the final group, Mu Jin's gaze became slightly excited and settled on Huo Yuhao.

"The final team: Huo Yuhao, Ning Tian, Wu Feng."

Mu Jin paused slightly. Amid everyone's surprised gazes, she said excitedly, "These are my suggested groupings. If you feel they are unsuitable, adjust them yourselves after class today. Confirm the final team members tomorrow."

"Also," Mu Jin looked at the three of them, her gaze burning, "this year's new students are very strong, so every class will select one or two Seed Teams to compete for the championship in the New Student Assessment."

"Huo Yuhao, Ning Tian, Wu Feng—you three are Class Nine's Seed Team. I hope you perform well in the Assessment and contend for the championship!"
