Dai Huabin Withdrew from the Academy

The moment Xuan Zi saw the large bowl of chicken legs that Huo Yuhao had brought out, his old and cloudy eyes lit up instantly.

He had heard from Ma Xiaotao a few months ago that Huo Yuhao was an amazing cook, and he had long wanted to see it for himself.

In the blink of an eye, Xuan Zi snatched the chicken leg from Huo Yuhao's hand.

"Cough cough!"

After accepting Huo Yuhao's chicken leg, Xuan Zi cleared his throat in a pretentious manner.

"Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, I'm afraid I can't help you with this. After all, this was a bet you made yourselves, and the bet doesn't involve any physical harm."

After saying that, Xuan Zi took the chicken leg that Huo Yuhao had given him and started eating it with gusto.

"I won't bother you any longer, I'll be going now."

Seeing that the several high-ranking academy officials she had recruited were easily dismissed by Huo Yuhao, Zhu Lu stood there dumbfounded, watching the three of them leave.

"You've mistakenly entered the imperial palace; I urge you to put down the sand in your hand."

The people who heard the sound turned around and looked at Xiao Xiao, who was making the strange noise.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Xiao Xiao chuckled twice.

"It's alright, it's alright, you can continue."

"Can you please forget all that nonsense about the Sun Moon Empire you've been watching?"

Seeing this, Wang Dong'er stretched out her hands and vigorously rubbed Xiao Xiao's face.

With Xiao Xiao's interference gone, Huo Yuhao once again focused his attention on Dai Huabin.

"Dai Huabin, no one can save you now. You should fulfill your bet."

At this moment, Dai Huabin, who had experienced great ups and downs, realized that he couldn't defeat Huo Yuhao in the academy. He could only remember this humiliation and wait for another opportunity to avenge it.

"Patience! I'll remember this grudge!"

"Thump."

Dai Huabin knelt down with difficulty, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence.

"Huo Yuhao, I, Dai Huabin, am inferior to you, and I, the second young master of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, am inferior to you. I was wrong today."

After Dai Huabin shouted, Huo Yuhao still didn't react. Ma Xiaotao, who was standing to the side, walked up to Dai Huabin.

"Is that a gesture of apology, speaking so softly?"

Upon hearing this, Dai Huabin looked at Ma Xiaotao with some fear. He knew that Dai Yueheng had been severely punished by this woman in the past few days.

"I can't hear anything, I have no strength at all."

"Try again!"

Ling Luochеn, standing next to Ma Xiaotao, echoed this sentiment.

Dai Huabin's golden eyes gradually turned bloodshot.

"Senior, what do you mean by this?"

Ma Xiaotao looked down at Dai Huabin and said, word by word:

"I'm telling you to start over. At the Shrek Academy, upperclassmen say they can't hear you, and they just can't hear you."

Dai Huabin felt a metallic taste of blood rising in his throat, and his stomach churned. After dawdling in place for a while, he knelt down again, intending to start over.

But this time, he was interrupted by Huo Yuhao again.

"Young Master Dai, wait a moment!"

"Are you ever going to stop?"

Dai Huabin stared at Huo Yuhao with bloodshot eyes and heavy breathing.

Huo Yuhao then took out a horn-shaped Soul Tool from his Soul Tool and handed it to Dai Huabin.

Then, Huo Yuhao began to count down softly.

"Five! Four! Three! Two! One!"

As Huo Yuhao's countdown ended, the Soul Tool in Dai Huabin's hand suddenly emitted a sound of Soul Tool synthesis.

"All eyes are on me! Look at me! Look at me! I have something to announce!"

The sound was so loud that even most of the students who hadn't left the Arena were drawn to the small corner where the group was.

"You can continue, Young Master Dai."

"You!"

Before Dai Huabin could finish speaking, a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth.

"Even vomiting blood counts as time!"

"Okay, I'll continue!"

Dai Huabin suppressed the urge to rush up and tear Huo Yuhao to pieces, and fulfilled his bet under the watchful eyes of everyone in the Arena.

"Huabin, how are you?"

After Dai Huabin fulfilled his bet, Zhu Lu stepped forward with concern to check on Dai Huabin injuries.

With a "poof" sound.

Dai Huabin spat a mouthful of blood directly onto Zhu Lu.

"Huabin! Don't scare me!"

"I'm fine! I can still manage. Take me to the infirmary to rest for a bit."

"So what do we do next?"

Dai Huabin stared in the direction Huo Yuhao had left, clenching his fist so tightly that his nails dug deep into his flesh.

"Return to the Star Luo Empire!"

Zhu Lu stared at Dai Huabin in surprise.

"What? Back to the Star Luo Empire? How are you going to compete with your older brother at the academy then?"

A hint of mockery flashed in Dai Huabin's eyes upon hearing Zhu Lu's words.

"There's no need. With Huo Yuhao at the academy, Dai Yueheng won't get any benefits. Why don't we go back to the Star Luo Empire? Star Luo Empire still has a group of nobles who are our allies. We'll see what happens at the Continental Soul Master Tournament!"

After saying that, Dai Huabin, supported by Zhu Lu, limped towards the infirmary.

Three full days have passed since the Freshman Competition. This time has been sufficient for the academy to compile a list of Freshman Competition top performers and for most students to recover from their injuries, ensuring they can all attend today's ceremony.

Before the college leaders even arrived at the square, the students inside had already begun whispering among themselves.

"Hey! Why does Teacher Mu Jin look so grumpy?"

"Didn't you know? Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu dropped out of school?"

"When did this happen? No wonder I saw Cui Yajie from Class 2 standing all alone in the award ceremony."

Just three days ago!

Meanwhile, some observant students in the square noticed that not only was Mu Jin's face grim, but Zhou Yi, the homeroom teacher of Freshman Class One, also looked very unhappy.

"Why is Zhou Yi also wearing a sour face? Didn't her student also get first place?"

The student being questioned first glanced discreetly in Zhou Yi's direction, then cautiously spoke to his companion:

"I heard that the academy is worried that the class advisor for the Freshman Class One isn't capable enough, and what if he can't control Huo Yuhao? So they're changing the class advisor. I heard they're replacing him with a senior from the Inner Court."

Zhou Yi stood at the front of the line, her face somewhat grim, but she couldn't vent her anger. She was extremely dissatisfied with the academy's arrangements, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Just as that student said, Huo Yuhao's current strength is too great, and he will soon obtain his fourth Spirit Ring.

With her ordinary Fire Dragon Martial Soul Emperor, she was absolutely no match for a Twin Martial Souls, the Ultimate Ice Soul Ancestor. Not to mention that Huo Yuhao's Four-Not-Like Martial Soul had a suppressive effect on ordinary dragon Martial Soul.

As the Dean of the Martial Soul Department and a group of leaders entered, the whispering square gradually quieted down.

First to take the stage was Du Weilun, the Dean of Studies for the Martial Soul Department. Standing on the podium, Du Weilun addressed the hundreds of students below with a gentle voice:

"First of all, congratulations to all of you for passing the academy's examination and officially entering Shrek Academy. I won't say much more, but I wish you all academic success at the Shrek Academy! Next, we will present awards to the top three winners of the Freshman Competition."

"Clap clap clap clap clap!"

As soon as Du Weilun finished speaking, the students below the stage burst into enthusiastic applause. For most of the students, who came from official families, Du Weilun's concise and to-the-point speech earned them the respect of most of them.

After all, nobody likes listening to an old man giving a long-winded speech.
