Bab 59: Chapter 59: Thirty years east, thirty years west, don't you dare bully me because I'm poor now!
"Sorry, our Soul Guidance department will not accept Huo Yuhao as a core disciple,"
After Fan Yu finished speaking, Du Weilun couldn't help but stand there stunned.
This isn't right. The script wasn't supposed to go like this! If you had said earlier that your Spirit Guidance Department didn't want him, then our Martial Soul Department might have taken him!
Du Weilun's gaze flickered, and he suddenly saw Zhou Yi standing beside the freshmen team at this moment.
This time's freshman class could be described as extremely tragic. Apart from Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao's team, only three unlucky individuals who were also defeated by Huo Yuhao passed the freshman assessment.
Before the freshman assessment, there were only five groups of students left in the first class. As a result, only two groups passed the freshman assessment in the end. This incredible result made the Martial Soul Department reassess Zhou Yi's teaching abilities. And with that, it became even more difficult for Zhou Yi to regain her position as class teacher.
At this moment, Zhou Yi's eyes were full of resentment and satisfaction as she looked at Huo Yuhao. Yes, she was the mastermind behind this scene.
It was she who blew the pillow wind in front of Fan Yu, describing Huo Yuhao as a disrespectful and arrogant student, and even used despicable means to make her lose her position as class teacher, which led to Fan Yu's anger.
Before Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo went into seclusion for Soul Guidance research, they had already informed Fan Yu to grant Huo Yuhao the status of core disciple of the Spirit Guidance Department when bringing back those Spirit Guidance Department students.
However, Fan Yu chose to strike Huo Yuhao again at this critical moment just after Du Weilun had finished announcing it.
"Kid, even if you're sharp-tongued and talented, even if you really have some talent and strength, without a background, you're just a small character who can be easily manipulated!" Zhou Yi sneered in her heart. "Not becoming a core disciple basically cuts off your path to entering the inner courtyard. Your future is over!"
On the side, Dai Huabin also had a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes. The scene where he was defeated by Huo Yuhao was still vivid, and now seeing his enemy being humiliated in public by the two major departments of Shrek Academy made him feel as if he had drunk ice-cold soda water in the dog days of summer, extremely refreshing.
"Huo Yuhao, you also have today! Hahaha!"
Du Weilun deeply looked at Fan Yu, then glanced at Huo Yuhao, sighing inwardly. Even though he knew Fan Yu might be falsely claiming the decree, he had no right to intervene in the internal affairs of the Spirit Guidance Department, which had its own division of labor from the Martial Soul Department.
Shaking his head with some regret, he continued to announce, "In view of the outstanding performance of some freshmen in the freshman assessment, although their talents and abilities are lacking, the academy has decided to allow them to temporarily enjoy the treatment of core disciples until the end of this academic year. If they make breakthroughs in next year's promotion exam, they will be considered for promotion to formal core disciples. The list is as follows: Huo Yuhao, Cui Yajie, Huang Chutian, Zhou Sichen, Cao Jinxuan, Long Xiangyue. Announcement completed."
"I'm sorry, Director Du, I choose to give up the treatment of core disciple given by the academy."
Suddenly, a solemn voice came from among the many students below. As everyone's gaze swept around, they all fell on Huo Yuhao.
"Huo Yuhao, what did you say?" Du Weilun's face changed as he spoke.
"I'm sorry, I choose to give up the treatment of core disciple given by the academy. I only need to take the upgrade exam as an ordinary disciple," Huo Yuhao said calmly.
"Among the students who entered the elimination round, I am the only one with a cultivation level of less than twentieth rank. I also know that my talent is low and my strength is insufficient. It was all thanks to the help of my teammates that I became the champion of the freshman assessment. So I consider myself unworthy of enjoying the treatment of core disciple and choose to give it up voluntarily."
Huo Yuhao's words, though self-deprecating, seemed somewhat off to the others.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu exchanged a glance, their eyes almost spewing fire with anger.
"You say you have low talent and poor strength, then what does that make us, the teams you defeated with your own hands? Are we even less talented and weaker than you? If you're not worthy of being a core disciple, then do we even deserve to continue staying at Shrek Academy? Damn it, this is basically slapping the faces of the teams defeated by Huo Yuhao!"
Du Weilun naturally could sense the sarcasm in Huo Yuhao's words, but he represented the authority of Shrek Academy. If Huo Yuhao voluntarily gave up the treatment of a core disciple, it would be tantamount to disrespecting the honor of Shrek Academy.
"Huo Yuhao, I understand that you might have grievances about the academy not treating you as a core disciple, but since you chose to study at Shrek Academy, you should obey the academy's rules," Du Weilun said sternly.
"You're still young, and I can consider this as a momentary lapse in judgment due to your anger. If you take back what you said just now, I can pretend nothing happened."
Ning Tian reached out to try to stop Huo Yuhao from continuing, but Huo Yuhao waved her off, smiled at her, and then stood straight, facing Du Weilun, and spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Director Du, whether it's you or the other teachers, you should be able to see how I performed during the freshman assessment these past few days. Since the day I entered Shrek Academy, I have put in all my effort, practicing diligently every day, striving to improve. While others rested, I practiced. While others lazed around, I still practiced."
If Tang Ya were here, she would surely mercilessly expose Huo Yuhao's lies.
"What resting while others practiced? You were clearly grilling skewers at the East Gate, and your business even expanded, now you have franchises at other city gates too!"
"After the freshman assessment started, I worked even harder with my teammates and ultimately achieved the highest honor. But even so, I don't get to be a core disciple? Why is that?"
"Ten thousand years ago, that master once said, 'There are no wasted martial souls, only wasted soul masters,' and Shrek Academy even regards this as one of its mottoes. But why, when I demonstrated overwhelming strength in the freshman assessment, am I not given the treatment I deserve?"
"Though autumn grass may wither, it can still flourish in spring! Though a rusty sword may lack an edge, it still carries the might to vanquish all! Thirty years east, thirty years west, don't you dare bully me because I'm poor now!"
"I choose to give up the treatment of a core disciple not to prove how great I am, but to stand my ground! When the time comes for the upgrade exam, I want to see which core disciple is qualified to fight me!"
Huo Yuhao: I'm standing on the moral high ground, pointing fingers at you all.
Du Weilun fell silent upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, while the surrounding teachers and students all wore expressions of shock.
Too audacious!
This is Shrek Academy, the number one sacred place in the Soul Master world of Douluo Continent. How dare Huo Yuhao publicly question the decisions of the high-level executives of Shrek Academy? And even mock them with such impassioned words?
"Hahaha, well said! What a 'thirty years east, thirty years west, don't you dare bully me because I'm poor now!"
Suddenly, from high above in the distance, came a thunderous laughter.
"Gao Qiang, I finally found you!"
