As the heavy doors slowly opened, Zhou Yi walked straight into them without saying a word.

The Soul Tool Department was brightly lit, with Soul Guidance Lamp on both sides engraved with Core Array, emitting a gleaming light.

Huo Yuhao and He Caitou followed behind Zhou Yi, walking forward.

Huo Yuhao looked around with some curiosity; many rare metals were present in the classrooms nearby.

Although there aren't many varieties, they are all the most common ones, but the quantity is large.

As for He Caitou, he dared not speak at this moment and could only silently follow behind.

Although he knew that his master had removed his master's wife's permission, he didn't know why, and Zhou Yi was in a fit of anger.

He Caitou was stupid, he wouldn't say anything reckless again. He should leave this obviously bad luck to his master to handle.

Soon, the voices of the students in the distance gradually grew louder.

Immediately afterwards, a small group of students emerged from around the corner of the corridor ahead.

There were both men and women among them. The male trainees walked in front, their arms around each other's shoulders, and some of them even had flushed faces, as if they had been drinking.

The female students behind them were much quieter, only whispering amongst themselves.

They quickly noticed Zhou Yi and her two companions ahead.

Because Zhou Yi was wearing casual clothes, they naturally mistook her for a student.

However, when they saw the He Caitou behind them, their eyes lit up.

The swaying male trainees were also suddenly shocked.

Then, the students immediately nodded He Caitou's direction, saying, "Greetings, Senior Brother He!"

He Caitou nodded politely to them and said, "Hello, if you're done, please go back and rest early."

The students all nodded, but as they passed Huo Yuhao and his group, they noticed Zhou Yi among the three.

Because Zhou Yi's true appearance had never appeared in the Soul Tool Department, they did not recognize Zhou Yi like He Caitou.

The male students went even further, asking, "Senior brother, is this junior sister from our Soul Tool? Could you introduce her to us?"

Zhou Yi frowned, wanting to reprimand him, but hesitated to speak immediately due to the large number of people around.

He Caitou quickly interrupted the students, then said sternly with a tense expression, "Don't talk nonsense! Go back now."

The leading male student slapped He Caitou's hand away, saying without any hesitation, "Hey, Senior Brother He, what's the big deal? Are you shy or what?"

"That's right, that's right, senior brother, don't eat alone!"

"It won't hurt to give an introduction."

The male trainees continued to chatter on and on, refusing to shut up, He Caitou tried to stop them but was powerless to do so.

Immediately afterwards, He Caitou felt a powerful surge of Soul Power coming from behind him.

Six Soul Ring— two yellow, two purple, and two black—suddenly rose up and surrounded Zhou Yi.

The aura of Soul Emperor suddenly erupted in the corridor, its powerful force instantly sweeping across the surroundings.

The trainees felt a sudden heaviness in their bodies, and their bodies even began to feel an instinctive fear.

"One... two... six! Soul Emperor!"

The male trainees on the side turned pale, cold sweat instantly soaked the backs of their shirts, and they sobered up considerably in an instant.

Only then did they realize how foolish they had just been.

Six-Ring Soul Emperor is an extremely high level of achievement at the Shrek Academy. Soul Master of this level are usually either inner court students or teachers.

However, regardless of their identities, these ordinary students are not to be trifled with.

The Douluo Continent is, after all, a world where strength is revered, and people have an unfounded fear of the strong.

Zhou Yi stared coldly at them, her face darkening, and she hissed, "Get out!"

The male trainees, no longer daring to hesitate, fled outside in a panic.

Watching those people leave, Zhou Yi then concealed her aura, and the six Soul Ring behind her retracted into her body.

Zhou Yi then snorted coldly and walked forward again. Huo Yuhao smiled helplessly and had no choice but to follow with He Caitou.

As for the female students who hadn't left yet, Zhou Yi didn't make things difficult for them; she simply gestured for them to leave quickly.

After walking a little further, He Caitou suddenly became inexplicably nervous.

A crack was visible in the office ahead, letting in a little light.

But from behind the door, one could faintly hear the voices of a man and a woman talking.

Zhou Yi subconsciously stopped and listened quietly for a moment. She recognized both voices, and she was certain that the boy was Fan Yu.

Looking at Zhou Yi's furrowed brows, He Caitou inexplicably felt a strong urge to leave.

However, he didn't know how to start the conversation, so he could only stay where he was.

As for Huo Yuhao, he had heard the entire conversation clearly.

However, the content was somewhat embarrassing to talk about, so Huo Yuhao subconsciously ignored it.

He now hopes that Zhou Yi will calm down a bit later.

Zhou Yi listened for a while, but because of the isolation created by the surrounding metal walls, she couldn't hear very clearly.

She had no choice but to shake herself and walk directly to the office door.

Huo Yuhao turned to He Caitou and said, " Brother He, why don't you go back first? I feel that Teacher Zhou is in a bad mood, and it wouldn't be good if you got caught in the crossfire."

He Caitou also agreed with Huo Yuhao's point, and quickly nodded, saying apologetically, " Little Brother Huo, then I'll have to trouble you. We still have some Soul Tool research that's not finished yet, so I'll leave the rest to you."

Without hesitation, He Caitou quickly left the place, even though he was honest and simple, he could sense the subtle atmosphere.

He Caitou shook his head inwardly and said, "I owe Little Brother Huo Little Brother Huo a favor today. I'll have to make it up to him next time."

He then disappeared into the darkness of the corridor.

After that, He Caitou was even very glad and grateful to Huo Yuhao for letting him leave early.

If he hadn't left that night, he probably wouldn't have had a good time at Shrek.

Seeing He Caitou leave, Huo Yuhao turned around and saw Zhou Yi standing blankly at the door.

Through the light filtering through the crack in the door, Huo Yuhao could clearly see the change in Zhou Yi's expression.

His previously furrowed brows instantly changed, and his beautiful eyes flashed with anger. The Soul Power within his body also began to become wild and restless.

Huo Yuhao sensed something was wrong and strode forward.

Zhou Yi also kicked the office door hard.

"Bang!"

The heavy metal door slammed against the wall with a dull, resonant sound.

Immediately following was a woman's piercing scream.

"Ahhh!..."

" Zhou Yi, what brings you here?" a male voice shouted.

At the same time, the sound of clothes being put on could be heard from inside the office.
