The next day arrived quickly.

Huo Yuhao slowly emerged from meditation. After cultivating through the night, his level had finally reached fifteen. Previously, absorbing Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's Soul Ring had raised him to level twenty-four.

Finally leveled up? The Nine Revolutions Returning to One Technique really is impressive. The circulation of the Heavenly Cycle can speed up as well. Everything is moving in a better direction.

Huo Yuhao got up and stretched. After washing up in the bathroom, he noticed Wang Dong still sleeping soundly in bed and shook his head helplessly.

"Time to get up! If you don't get up now, we'll be late!"

Even after Huo Yuhao said that, Wang Dong remained fast asleep, having even turned toward the wall. Looking helplessly at his roommate who refused to get out of bed, Huo Yuhao extended his right hand, and a chunk of ice appeared in it.

The next second, Huo Yuhao slipped the ice into the back of Wang Dong's clothes. An icy chill instantly swept across Wang Dong's back, completely driving away his drowsiness.

"Ah! Huo Yuhao!"

Wang Dong sat up and fumbled behind his back. After much effort, he finally pulled the ice from inside his clothes and glared resentfully at Huo Yuhao.

"Alright! Don't look at me like that. If you don't get up, we really will be late!"

Huo Yuhao picked up the alarm clock from the table and handed it to Wang Dong. Seeing the time, Wang Dong, who had still been planning to stay in bed, instantly sobered up. He frantically threw on his coat and rushed outside.

As he ran, he kept shouting, "Oh no, oh no, we're going to be late!"

Watching the hurried figure, Huo Yuhao sighed helplessly and followed behind at an unhurried pace. After rushing all the way, the two finally arrived at the classroom entrance.

They looked inside and saw that the room was nearly full, though the teacher apparently had not arrived yet.

"Phew... that was close. We almost came late!" Wang Dong wiped the sweat from his forehead, then went to an empty two-person desk and waved at Huo Yuhao behind him.

"Hey! Yuhao! Over here, over here! There's still room!"

Huo Yuhao shook his head and sat beside Wang Dong. The moment they sat down, Wang Dong's stomach began growling uncontrollably, and his cheeks instantly flushed red.

"Alright! This is yours!" With that, Huo Yuhao took out a grilled fish from the storage Soul Tool on his right wrist. It was one of the extras he had grilled earlier, originally meant to serve as a meal.

However, he had cultivated too late that morning, so it was just right for breakfast.

Smelling its fragrance, Wang Dong could not resist taking it directly from Huo Yuhao's hand. He thanked him, took a bite, and the next moment, an unusual aroma spread through his mouth.

"Mmm! Delicious! So delicious!"

Wang Dong began wolfing it down without regard for his image, making several classmates who had skipped breakfast swallow hungrily.

Watching Wang Dong devour it, Huo Yuhao helplessly shook his head. He took out another grilled fish and began eating it himself. Mm! Not bad, though it was a little bland. Next time, he could buy some chili powder. It might taste even better.

Just as the two were enjoying their meal, a tall female teacher entered through the door. At the sight of the teacher, everyone immediately turned their attention toward the podium.

The two had just finished their grilled fish, their stomachs now full, and they turned their gazes toward the teacher at the front.

This teacher appeared quite old, with wrinkles covering her face and a sharp, vicious gaze.

This teacher looks quite aged, but her hands don't match the face she's showing. Is it a disguise? An interesting teacher? Huo Yuhao saw through the teacher's disguise at a glance with his Spirit Eyes.

"Mm! Very good, everyone is here! Now then! Anyone who fought during the start of school, stand up!" Empowered by Soul Power, her voice rang throughout the classroom as her stern gaze swept across every student present.

Just as Wang Dong was about to stand, Huo Yuhao grabbed him and pulled him back down!

"Hm?" Wang Dong was somewhat confused, but when he saw Huo Yuhao subtly shake his head, he immediately understood. The teacher was planning to use some troublemakers to establish her authority!

Seeing that no one stood up, the teacher spoke with disdain. "No one? What a bunch of trash. Don't you know that those who don't dare cause trouble are mediocre? You haven't remembered even a bit of our academy's creed!"

Hearing the teacher's contemptuous tone, Huo Yuhao frowned deeply, unable to understand where this teacher got such a sense of superiority.

"For a teacher to act in such a manner, she truly does not deserve her position!" The gray sphere's voice sounded. Wei Qing, beside it, nodded in agreement, while Tian Meng was sleeping soundly!

"My name is Zhou Yi! From now on, I will be the homeroom teacher of your Freshman Class One. Those who did not fight, go to the track and run!" Her voice allowed no objection.

At once, a student protested in anger, rising to his feet. "Why? Why should we be punished when we didn't fight?"

The students who could enter Shrek Academy were all descendants of influential figures, disciples of sects, or members of prominent families. Zhou Yi's words had truly provoked their pride and left them dissatisfied.

"Why? Because I am your homeroom teacher!" As she spoke, Soul Rings slowly emerged around Zhou Yi—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black! Six Soul Rings displayed Zhou Yi's power.

"A-A Soul Emperor!" The student who had just been so arrogant instantly fell silent. Under the pressure of her powerful Soul Power, everyone could only head to the track in reluctant submission.

Although he did not understand her method of teaching, Huo Yuhao still intended to wait and see whether there was some deeper meaning behind it.

As the students of Class One arrived at the track, Zhou Yi's voice rang out. "Everyone, start running now. Anyone who cannot complete one hundred laps will leave Shrek Academy! Those who fail will all be expelled!"

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, everyone was dissatisfied. But wary of her strength, they had no choice but to start running, though some self-righteous students began slacking off.

Naturally, this scene did not escape Zhou Yi's notice. She had already decided how to deal with them. Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong began running. As they experienced such ordinary physical training, they became increasingly disappointed in Zhou Yi's teaching.

Looks like Shrek's education is nothing special. It seems I need to transfer schools. Staying at an academy like this would just be a waste of time. Huo Yuhao began planning how to transfer.

"Yuhao! Do not be too hasty. Some things cannot be judged with a single stroke. The greater the power, the more darkness there is behind it." At that moment, the gray sphere's voice sounded.

Huo Yuhao's consciousness entered the Spirit Sea, leaving his body to Tian Meng. That fellow slept all day long; it was time for him to get up and exercise!

"May I ask who you are?" Huo Yuhao cupped his hands slightly and looked curiously at the gray sphere. The gray sphere answered in a calm voice, "I was drawn here by the commotion caused by you and that big bug. I am a fragment of divine consciousness from another world."

"When you were previously attacked by a strand of divine consciousness, I intervened and destroyed one of them. After absorbing the power within it, I regained my awareness and was able to speak with you."

"You helped with that earlier attack? Thank you for your assistance, Senior!" Huo Yuhao bowed in thanks. This had been crucial to whether he could preserve his own consciousness!
