Chapitre 52: Chapter 52: Huo Yuhao's True Strength!
The assessment area in the afternoon was very quiet. Although it was the finals of the new student assessment knockout competition, there were no student spectators.
Shrek Academy's assessment system takes into account the privacy of each student's abilities as much as possible, so the assessments are never open for other students to watch.
Of course, Huo Yuhao, who has been thoroughly researched by the class teachers as a guinea pig, wouldn't think this way.
Although students are not allowed to watch, the teachers who do spectate will summarize everything they see and tell their students in class.
You could say Shrek Academy understands the concept of redundant actions well.
Almost all the academy's teachers who had no classes gathered in the assessment area to watch the competition, and Dean Yan Shaozhe personally attended, accompanied by Du Weilun and a group of teachers to the high platform.
Naturally, Xuanzi sat at the center of the high platform, with a large plate of barbecue in front of him. If any of Huo Yuhao's regular customers were present, they could recognize the unique aroma of Huo's grilled fish.
Someone as carefree as Xuanzi wouldn't care about Shrek Academy's rules or the people around him, and he ate and drank without concern.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this is just the annual new student assessment three months into the school year. Almost all the inner court students of Shrek Academy had once stood out in the new student assessment before being fully nurtured by the academy.
Yan Shaozhe attended in person because this batch of new students was particularly strong. Generally, Shrek Academy students would reach the three-ring level by the third grade, and the three-ring cultivation was also a requirement for advancing from the third to the fourth grade.
However, among this batch of new students, there were already three who had reached the three-ring level. This level of strength almost guaranteed their future entry into the inner court. Yan Shaozhe wanted to see who would ultimately become the champion among these new students.
"Weilun, who do you favor in today's match?" Yan Shaozhe asked with a smile.
Du Weilun chuckled and respectfully said, "I still favor Dai Huabin's side. Although Huo Yuhao's team has defeated many strong opponents, overall strength-wise, Dai Huabin's side is stronger. Especially his two teammates, who are not weak and also have the potential to enter the inner court in the future."
"If you all favor Dai Huabin, then I'll bet on Huo Yuhao's side to win."
Suddenly, a deep and steady voice sounded from not far away—it was the deputy dean of the Soul Engineering Department, Qian Duoduo.
Yan Shaozhe did not turn his head but already had a smile on his face. "Old Qian, what brings you here? I could tell it was you from the smell of money."
"Hehe, your Martial Soul Department has been holding on to our Soul Engineering Department's students. I definitely have to come and settle this!" Qian Duoduo sat boldly next to Yan Shaozhe and did not forget to greet Xuanzi, who was busy eating barbecue.
"I say, old Yan, you're quite unfair, aren't you? Our Soul Engineering Department already has few students, and at the Sea God Pavilion meeting, you agreed to transfer some non-core students to our department. But three months have passed in the blink of an eye, and where are my students?"
Upon hearing Qian Duoduo's words, Yan Shaozhe's expression did not change. He smiled and said, "Old Qian, why are you in such a hurry? Among the students you requested to transfer to the Soul Engineering Department, a few are new students who haven't taken the assessment yet. According to the rules, apart from the special enrollment quota, only new students who pass the assessment can stay at Shrek Academy. I'm just following the academy's regulations."
Qian Duoduo's eyes flickered, sensing that Yan Shaozhe had perceived his intentions. The two on the high platform fell into a strange silence, no longer conversing.
Naturally, Huo Yuhao did not notice the subtle atmosphere between the two deans. His entire attention was focused on his opponents.
Although Dai Huabin hadn't recognized Huo Yuhao, he could feel the threat posed by Huo Yuhao's team. After all, turning the new student assessment into a speedrun challenge was something only Huo Yuhao could achieve.
Whether it was Wang Dong, who possessed the Bright Goddess Butterfly martial soul and had a thousand-year-old second soul ring, or Xiao Xiao, who had twin martial souls, they were both top-tier new students. Their overall strength was not much weaker than Dai Huabin's team.
Was Xie Huanyue's team weak? As a defense system soul master at the Soul Elder level, even Dai Huabin wasn't confident he could break Xie Huanyue's defense head-on.
Yet, in the end, Xie Huanyue couldn't even withstand a single blow from Huo Yuhao and was severely injured, still not fully recovered. This allowed Huang Chutian's team to take advantage, defeating a weak team and securing third place in the new student assessment.
Thus, before this battle began, Dai Huabin had made thorough preparations, even seeking out opponents who had previously fought Huo Yuhao's team to learn about their abilities in detail.
The referee teacher walked into the spacious assessment area. All the partitions had been removed at noon, revealing a massive assessment zone.
The referee waved to both sides, signaling them to enter the field.
Huo Yuhao and his team walked in unhurriedly, with Huo Yuhao leading, and Ning Tian and Wu Feng on either side.
This situation puzzled the observing teachers. Two young soul masters of noble birth from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were willing to follow a one-ring soul master?
On the other side, led by Dai Huabin, two girls also entered the field.
"Your upcoming final has a rule change. Listen carefully," the referee announced.
"To allow you to display your full strength, you may go all out during the match without holding back. I will ensure your safety. However, anyone I rescue from the battlefield will be considered eliminated. Understood?"
"Understood," both teams responded in unison.
A cold glint appeared in Dai Huabin's eyes, an invisible killing intent emanating from him.
However, to a professional like Huo Yuhao, this level of killing intent was as harmless as a kitten threatening an elephant, posing no real danger.
"State your names," the referee commanded.
"Huo Yuhao."
"Ning Tian."
"Wu Feng."
On Dai Huabin's side, the three also showed clear hostility.
"Dai Huabin."
"Zhu Lu."
"Cui Yajie."
The referee stretched his arms out to the sides and loudly declared, "Move to the edges of the field. Only when I announce the start can you begin attacking."
Both sides retreated slowly, but Dai Huabin's gaze remained fixed on Huo Yuhao, his eyes glinting with a fierce, murderous light.
Suddenly, Huo Yuhao's demeanor changed. The faint smile on his lips disappeared, and a terrifying aura of blood and death erupted from him.
The chilling killing intent made Dai Huabin shudder as if he had fallen into an abyss.
Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo's faces simultaneously turned serious. They exchanged glances and focused intently on the battlefield.
Meanwhile, Mu En, who was lying in the sunlight at the entrance of the new student dormitory, also smiled.
"Interesting. Let's see how much strength you are still hiding."
