Dai Huabin Unleashes His Ultimate at Point-Blank Range

Wang Dong and Nanmen Yun'er were engaged in a fierce mutual slapping match.

Meanwhile, with Ning Tian's first soul skill boosting his speed, Wu Feng unleashed her first soul skill, Dragonfire.

Red flames emerged from Wu Feng's body and surrounded her. Every one of her attacks carried the effects of Dragonfire.

This might have been troublesome for the old Huo Yuhao, but now Huo Yuhao's single soul ring alone gave him a level advantage over Wu Feng.

Wu Feng's attacks were nothing to Huo Yuhao.

The Ice Sword in Huo Yuhao's hand could completely block every one of Wu Feng's attacks with a simple guard.

Ning Tian, who had been watching the battle, suddenly cried out.

Everyone else, including Huo Yuhao, turned to look at Ning Tian.

Ning Tian was half-kneeling on the ground, clutching her head in agony. Her expression was utterly twisted and miserable.

"What did you do to Ning Tian?!" Seeing Ning Tian in pain, Wu Feng could no longer stand by and threw a punch at Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao easily caught Wu Feng's fist and casually explained, "Nothing. I just used my soul skill. After all, I'm not going to fight you one-on-one. Knocking your main support out early makes dealing with you much easier."

After saying that, Huo Yuhao directly released the power of Ultimate Ice. Icy cold air poured from the hand gripping Wu Feng's fist.

Seeing the chilling aura that made her uncomfortable, Wu Feng tried to pull free. But no matter how hard she struggled, she could not break away, as though her hand had been glued to Huo Yuhao's.

Wu Feng could only watch helplessly as the frigid air Huo Yuhao released froze her hand.

What shocked Wu Feng was that even the flames she released could not melt Huo Yuhao's ice.

Logically, with fire and ice of equal power, she should have held the advantage. Yet Huo Yuhao's ice felt far stronger than her flames.

Seeing that it was about enough, Huo Yuhao directly flung Wu Feng away.

Wu Feng crashed into Ning Tian, who was still wracked with splitting pain, and both of them were sent flying off the stage.

Nanmen Yun'er, who had still been trading blows with Wang Dong, turned around upon hearing the sound.

Only then did Nanmen Yun'er realize that she was the only one left on the entire stage.

Nanmen Yun'er said in shock, "Wait, my two huge teammates are just gone like that?!"

Wang Dong looked at Nanmen Yun'er with a wicked grin. "Little Nanmen Yun'er, you're the only ordinary Grand Soul Master left on the field. Hurry up and surrender, or I'll make you suffer."

Looking at the unmoved Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong, whom she found rather irritating, Nanmen Yun'er could only look pleadingly toward Mu Jin in the stands.

Mu Jin looked disappointed and helpless under Nanmen Yun'er's gaze, then nodded with no other choice.

If Ning Tian's group of three had faced Huo Yuhao alone, they might still have had a chance of winning. But now, only Nanmen Yun'er, an agility attack-type soul master, remained on the stage.

There was no way she could defeat Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong, even if she fought with her life on the line.

After receiving Mu Jin's permission, Nanmen Yun'er immediately chose to surrender.

If her teammates had still been on the field, she would not have chosen to surrender. Facing an evenly matched Grand Soul Master alone was already difficult enough, not to mention Huo Yuhao, a Soul Ancestor.

"Huo Yuhao's team wins."

After confirming that Nanmen Yun'er truly intended to surrender, the proctor announced the result of the match.

After Nanmen Yun'er returned to her team, neither Ning Tian nor Wu Feng, whose personality clashed with hers, chose to blame her.

After watching Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong leave the Assessment Zone, Ning Tian's group of three followed behind them back to their class.

Although her seeded team had lost, Mu Jin forced a smile and said to Wang Yan, "Congratulations, Teacher Wang. Your seeded team has successfully advanced."

Wang Yan replied, "Not at all. If Teacher Mu's seeded team had not encountered a monster like Huo Yuhao, your strength would have been enough to place in the top three."

"How could that be? Teacher Wang really knows how to joke. Nearly every teacher knows that besides Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's team, there's also Xiao Xiao's team with Xue Ningbing, which isn't much weaker than them."

"I'd say that with the strength of those two teams, Class One will take first and second place. Third place will probably belong to Dai Huabin's group."

Fortunately, Ning Tian's group had lost to a team led by Wang Yan. If they had lost to that old woman surnamed Zhou, where would Mu Jin's dignity have gone?

"Teacher Wang, I'll excuse myself first. I imagine my students have suffered quite a blow, so I need to go comfort them."

Mu Jin casually found an excuse and left.

Wang Yan did not pay it much mind and left in another direction.

Evening, at a restaurant.

Huo Yuhao, Xue Ningbing, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao gathered in a restaurant for dinner.

As he ate, Wang Dong said, "Looks like the Freshman Assessment's champion and runner-up spots will both be ours with our strength."

"At present, there are no opponents capable of threatening us."

Xiao Xiao said confidently as well, "Of course. We're the strongest. Maybe even many upperclassmen wouldn't necessarily be a match for Ningbing and the class monitor."

Before either Huo Yuhao or Xue Ningbing could respond, a voice that irritated Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao appeared.

"I'd say you're being far too arrogant."

Without question, the owner of that voice was Dai Huabin, the person none of them wanted to see.

Wang Dong did not even turn around before cursing.

"Dai Huabin, what the hell are you doing here?!"

Hearing Wang Dong curse him, Dai Huabin was furious, but he had not come specifically for Wang Dong this time. He had come for Huo Yuhao.

Dai Huabin said directly to Huo Yuhao, "If I remember correctly, your name is Huo Yuhao, right?"

Hearing Dai Huabin's words, Huo Yuhao turned to him and said, "If you're here to provoke me, forget it. Trash like you isn't qualified to provoke me."

What Dai Huabin said next gave Huo Yuhao the urge to kill him.

"The surname Huo seems rather uncommon. If I remember correctly, when I was young, my mother seemed to have indirectly caused the death of someone with the same surname as you."
