Qian Duoduo's Personal Disciple?

All the students of Class Nine looked at Huo Yuhao and the other two, excitement shining in their eyes as they broke into enthusiastic applause.

Huo Yuhao was an oddity in Class Nine. The other students truly had no idea of his actual strength.

But Ning Tian, as the class monitor, had a fairly good relationship with the rest of the class, and she was also a member of the Huo Yuhao Team.

As a result, quite a few students had privately asked her about Huo Yuhao's true strength.

Ning Tian only said one thing: "Wu Feng and I combined would only be asking for a beating in front of him."

The moment those words came out, everyone was stunned.

Da Jiangyou immediately gave up on the idea of getting even.

During this New Student Assessment, after a few students from Class Nine had finished their own assessments, they had secretly gone to watch Huo Yuhao and his team's matches.

The others could not see the crucial role Huo Yuhao played and assumed he was just a boss carrying the team, winning while lying back.

But they had long known that Huo Yuhao possessed a Spiritual Attribute martial soul, so they had guessed what he had secretly been doing during those matches.

Da Jiangyou in particular got a headache every time he saw Huo Yuhao's opponents drop the ball at a critical moment!

The applause in the classroom gradually died down, and Mu Jin began explaining the matters they needed to pay attention to in the upcoming Elimination Tournament.

She especially mentioned several Seed Teams, such as Dai Huabin's, Xie Huanyue's, and Wang Dong's.

Hearing Wang Dong's name, Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow slightly.

Hah, worthy of being God King Tang's little princess. Even without Huo Gua placing wards, she can still maintain the level of a Seed Team.

It was just a pity that Huo Gua had now become her opponent.

The following afternoon, the New Student Assessment officially entered the Elimination Tournament stage.

Today, the person presiding over the matches was Du Weilun, director of the Outer Academy's Martial Soul Department.

After all the participating students had arrived, Du Weilun quickly called roll before beginning the Draw.

The previously separated match grounds had been redivided into thirty-two sections. Each section was larger than before, allowing the students participating in the Elimination Tournament to better show their skills.

In the opening round of the Elimination Tournament, sixty-four groups of students would battle simultaneously.

Winners advanced, losers withdrew. Direct and efficient.

Today, Wang Yan was not serving as an assessment teacher. Instead, he came to the High Platform with the other teachers to watch the matches.

Naturally, the person he was mainly watching was still Huo Yuhao.

Once the drawing was complete, each participating team headed to its designated Arena, while Du Weilun returned to the High Platform.

Zhou Yi looked at Mu Jin and sneered. "Heh, Mu Jin, your luck really is terrible. You actually ran into our class's Seed Team in the very first Elimination Tournament match. Have you prepared the stake?"

Mu Jin shot her a glance and mocked, "The stake is with your Fan Yu. Once the match is over, I'll just go collect it from him. No need for Old Madam Zhou to worry about it."

Zhou Yi snorted heavily. "A dead duck with a hard beak!"

At that moment, a deep male voice cut in with a laugh. "Zhou Yi, Mu Jin, why are you two arguing again? You've been fighting for so many years. Aren't you tired of it?"

Zhou Yi turned her head and said in surprise, "Eh, Dean Qian? How do you have the time to come watch the New Student Assessment?"

When Mu Jin saw Qian Duoduo, she smiled knowingly and gave him a slight bow.

She could guess that Qian Duoduo had definitely come to see his prized disciple.

Qian Duoduo chuckled. "I heard this year's new students have a few who are fairly decent. I had nothing to do, so I came over to take a look."

Du Weilun immediately looked at him somewhat warily. His eyes shifted as he smiled and probed, "Dean Qian is certainly in good spirits. I wonder which new student has caught your eye?"

Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe fought over students almost every year, but at Shrek Academy, the Martial Soul Department was clearly more popular than the Soul Tool Department. Eight times out of ten, Yan Shaozhe came out ahead.

Du Weilun thought Qian Duoduo had become desperate, which was why he had come to snatch students as early as the New Student Assessment stage.

Qian Duoduo saw through Du Weilun's probing at once and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Weilun. I'm not interested in any of the boys you have your eye on. I came today mainly to see my disciple."

"Your disciple?" Du Weilun asked in surprise.

Zhou Yi was equally astonished. "When did you take on a Personal Disciple?"

Qian Duoduo smiled and glanced at Mu Jin. "Three months ago. He's in Mu Jin's class now."

"In Mu Jin's class?"

Zhou Yi's heart skipped a beat, and a bad feeling suddenly arose within her.

Previously, Qian Duoduo had been unwilling to expose Huo Yuhao because he was worried Yan Shaozhe and the others would shamelessly try to steal him.

But now, he had far more confidence.

Because Huo Yuhao's Talent with Soul Tools could absolutely shut the mouths of those shameless fools from the Martial Soul Department!

In just over half a month, he had gone from being a complete Soul Tool novice to directly becoming a Fourth Level Soul Tool Master. What kind of concept was that?

Qian Duoduo had practically been stunned numb!

If Huo Yuhao had not only been a Soul Master when he enrolled, Qian Duoduo would have suspected the boy had already studied Soul Tools for years!

This could not even be called genius anymore. He was practically the reincarnation of the "Soul Tool Holy Body"!

Every time he watched Huo Yuhao "Copy and Paste," Qian Duoduo could only offer a two-word evaluation:

Holy shit!

Beside him, Wang Yan's gaze shifted. A thought flashed through his mind, and he blurted out, "Dean Qian, your Personal Disciple wouldn't happen to be named Huo Yuhao, would he?"

Qian Duoduo looked at him in surprise. "Eh? How did you know?"

Wang Yan shook his head with a bitter smile and sighed. "So it really is him."

Given Huo Yuhao's rare Original Martial Soul with a Spiritual Attribute, Wang Yan had guessed that the Soul Tool Department would likely value him highly.

He just had not expected Qian Duoduo to move so early, taking Huo Yuhao as a Personal Disciple three months ago!

Elder Xuan, Elder Xuan... this time, you may truly have misjudged him! Wang Yan sighed regretfully to himself.

Beside him, Du Weilun seemed to suddenly recall something. "Huo Yuhao? Dean Qian, is he the student you asked leave for last time?"

Qian Duoduo nodded with a smile. "That's right. There was a problem with his martial soul, but it has been resolved now."

Mu Jin looked at Zhou Yi with amusement. "What a coincidence, Dean Qian. Your disciple just happened to run into Teacher Zhou's class's Seed Team. Teacher Zhou was just saying they would definitely lose."

"Oh?"

Qian Duoduo swept a glance over Zhou Yi and said lightly, "In that case, I'll have to take a good look at this match."

To be honest, Qian Duoduo did not like Zhou Yi at all.

Before Huo Yuhao appeared, Fan Yu had always been the Soul Tool Department genius Qian Duoduo valued most.

But ever since Fan Yu got together with Zhou Yi, that stubborn woman had caused Fan Yu no end of trouble. She had practically turned him into a scapegoat!

If it were not for Zhou Yi, Qian Duoduo felt that Fan Yu's progress with Soul Tools would definitely have been greater than it was now!
