Although any Soul Master skilled at controlling spiritual power could actually manage an ability like Simulation, his Martial Soul was the Blue Silver Emperor.
Aside from piling on vitality, he could find no other path for developing the Blue Silver Emperor, so gaining a Simulation-type Soul Skill would be a considerable help to him in the early stages.
For instance, right now, he did not want to wear Shrek's lousy uniform, so he could simply use Simulation to conjure up its appearance. To everyone else, he would look as though he were wearing the uniform, while in reality, he was still wearing his own clothes.
Soon, Lin Xuanchen found his classroom on the left side of the first floor.
However, Lin Xuanchen was not particularly fond of this classroom, for one simple reason: its homeroom teacher was that disgusting piece of work from the original story-Zhou Yi!
Zhou Yi was utterly revolting, the sort who would have faced prosecution in the world of his previous life. Aside from corporal punishment and expelling students, Lin Xuanchen had not seen a single redeeming quality in her in the original story.
Still, he was not worried. With Zhou Yi's current strength as a rank-sixty Soul Emperor, she might not even be able to beat him. If she really pissed him off, he would punch her in the face and put her to sleep.
Lin Xuanchen had arrived very early, and the spacious classroom was mostly empty, with only two or three people scattered about. Without the slightest hesitation, he headed straight to the back row and sat in the very last seat by the window.
As the saying went, the back row by the window was where kings belonged!
After finding his seat, Lin Xuanchen immediately laid his head on his desk to rest.
Not long after Lin Xuanchen lay down, a youth entered the classroom and immediately looked in his direction.
When she saw Lin Xuanchen resting on his desk, her cheeks involuntarily flushed. A trace of embarrassed anger flashed through her pinkish-blue eyes, and after shooting him another resentful glare, she found a seat far away from him.
The newcomer was none other than Wang Dong'er, whose skirt Lin Xuanchen had pulled off before spanking her yesterday. At the moment, however, Wang Dong'er had changed into boys' clothes and no longer looked like the girl she had been yesterday.
Time slowly passed, and the classroom gradually filled up. Most of the students gathered around Wang Dong'er, however, with hardly anyone near Lin Xuanchen.
Lin Xuanchen's looks were no worse than Wang Dong'er's, so he should have had just as many people around him. But because he was currently lying face down on his desk, hardly anyone noticed him.
Just before the bell rang, a figure hurried into the classroom. Since he was the last to arrive, very few seats remained. There happened to be an empty seat beside Lin Xuanchen, who was still resting on his desk, so he sat there without giving it much thought.
"Hm?" Sensing someone approaching, Lin Xuanchen raised his eyes to glance at the newcomer.
"Uh..." Huo Yuhao had been about to greet Lin Xuanchen, but when he got a clear look at his face, he could not help freezing for a moment. After inwardly admiring Lin Xuanchen's good looks, he smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Huo Yuhao."
"Lin Xuanchen." Lin Xuanchen recognized Huo Yuhao with a glance, gave a bland reply, then laid his head back down on the desk.
After all, he had gone to the Star Dou Great Forest not long ago to snatch Electrolux out from under Huo Yuhao's nose. He had met Huo Yuhao once there, so naturally, he recognized him.
At that moment, someone suddenly entered through the classroom doorway.
She was an old woman with wrinkled skin and crane-white hair, her graying locks coiled atop her head. She wore a long white robe and was of medium build. Most striking of all were her exceptionally bright eyes, their black depths gleaming sharply.
Seeing a teacher enter, the previously noisy classroom immediately fell quiet. Every pair of eyes turned toward Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi slowly walked up to the lectern, her calm gaze sweeping from left to right.
Immediately, everyone except Lin Xuanchen felt as though she were staring straight at them, and an invisible pressure sprang up in their hearts.
"My name is Zhou Yi, and I'm your homeroom teacher. I don't know how many of you will make it through the coming year with me, but let me tell you this: no trash in my class will ever pass the assessments. I'm here to cultivate monsters, not idiots," Zhou Yi barked coldly, her eyes narrowing.
At Zhou Yi's words, anger flashed through the eyes of every student present.
Having passed Shrek's entrance assessment and entered Shrek Academy, they were all carefully selected talents from the continent's various nations. Among their peers, they unquestionably deserved to be called gifted, yet in Zhou Yi's mouth, they had become useless trash.
"You dare sleep in my class?" Zhou Yi soon noticed Lin Xuanchen lying on his desk. She picked up a piece of chalk from the lectern and hurled it at him.
Zhou Yi infused the chalk with a sliver of Soul Power as she threw it, making it produce a sonic boom as it flew toward Lin Xuanchen. If that strike landed, it could deal a heavy blow to his head, possibly even causing a concussion.
Just as the chalk was about to touch Lin Xuanchen's head, something unexpected happened!
Suddenly, Lin Xuanchen's figure, which had been sprawled over the desk, transformed into a streak of blue lightning. In an instant, he appeared before Zhou Yi and stared coldly at her.
"Eight Extremes Collapse!"
Before Zhou Yi could react, a vicious glint flashed through Lin Xuanchen's blue-green eyes. He stepped forward, clenched his fingers into a fist, and unleashed a surge of blue-green Soul Power from within his body before driving his fist toward Zhou Yi's face.
"What?!" Zhou Yi's expression changed drastically. Everything had happened in a flash of lightning and sparks. She had never expected Lin Xuanchen to move so fast, much less dare attack her right off the bat.
Thud!
Caught completely off guard, Zhou Yi had no time to release her Martial Soul or even summon her Soul Power to defend herself. Lin Xuanchen's fist struck her squarely in the face with a dull thud.
The next instant, Zhou Yi flew backward like a rag doll, sailing straight through the classroom doorway before crashing heavily onto the ground.
Silence. Deathly silence filled the classroom.
Everything had happened so suddenly that many of the students had yet to process it.
"He... he sent the teacher flying..." someone suddenly said, breaking the deathly silence.
"Whoa!"
Immediately afterward, the classroom erupted like Japan being fed two nuclear walnuts, exploding into an uproar.
