In the end, Shui Wuya did get to eat the grilled fish.
Xu Sanshi gave the grilled fish he had reserved to Ma Xiaotao and Shui Wuya.
After tasting it, Shui Wuya had to admit that Huo Yuhao's cooking skills were really good.
Perhaps it was due to his outstanding spiritual power, coupled with his Purple Demon Eye, Huo Yuhao was able to control every aspect of grilling fish with great precision.
After finishing the grilled fish, Shui Wuya suggested heading back.
Ma Xiaotao naturally escorted Shui Wuya back to the dormitory before returning to the center of the lake.
...
The freshman assessment was held next to the Spirit Arena.
It was a very large oval-shaped area divided into smaller sections by partitions, where all of Shrek's assessments took place.
In the three months Shui Wuya had been at the academy, he had passed by here many times, but it was his first time actually standing inside.
Shrek Academy's freshman assessment had the largest number of participants, and the area was divided into fifty zones.
Each zone was assigned a teacher to supervise, and the freshmen assigned to the same zone would have to battle each team within the zone before being reassigned to face teams from other zones.
A total of ten battles were required to complete the assessment.
"Where are we?" Shui Wuya asked when he saw Dai Huabin return from the draw.
"We're in Zone Eleven. Not bad, right?" Dai Huabin replied.
"There are a total of fifty zones, with the top three from each zone advancing. That's a total of one hundred and fifty teams, which are the ones that will pass the assessment," Dai Huabin remarked.
"I didn't expect the pass rate mentioned by the teacher to be so high."
This time, there were thirty-two teams from their Class Five participating.
He knew Shui Wuya had previously been in Class One, so he also checked the situation in Class One.
Only twenty-two teams signed up for the assessment under Zhou Yi's leadership.
In theory, the number of students in each class should be about the same, which meant that within these three months, Zhou Yi had already expelled thirty new students.
"No wonder her pass rate is always the highest among the teachers. She just expelled all the other students, so how could it not be high?" Zhu Lu sneered.
Shui Wuya had no reaction. He knew who Zhou Yi was a long time ago.
"We'll only have one battle this afternoon, and we're the first. Similarly, we're also a team in this zone," Dai Huabin said, noticing that Shui Wuya wasn't interested in the topic and began discussing the assessment.
"We'll have one battle today, and the remaining nine battles should be completed over the next two days."
"Nine battles? Do we really have to fight that many?" Zhu Lu's face changed, surprised by the number.
The assessment time was limited, so fighting nine battles meant they wouldn't have much time for rest.
Then, Shui Wuya and Dai Huabin's eyes both turned towards Zhu Lu, who paused her breath.
Indeed, she was being too nervous.
Her teammates were two Soul Ancestors, and among these freshmen, they were definitely at the top in terms of strength.
"Um, sorry, I'm just too nervous."
"No, you're right. Nine battles are indeed too many," Shui Wuya unusually agreed with Zhu Lu's words, causing his two teammates to look at him with a rare expression.
"How about it? Don't you think it's a waste of time to fight nine matches one by one?" Shui Wuya surprised everyone with his words, causing the surrounding students to turn their attention to him.
"Who is this? Isn't he too arrogant?" Wang Lan frowned, very dissatisfied with Shui Wuya's attitude.
This sentence frightened his teammates, who quickly covered his mouth.
"Shut up, are you crazy? Do you know who he is?" Wang Lan didn't know Shui Wuya, but his teammates did.
"The one who said that is Shui Wuya, who just entered the school, dared to confront a teacher in the first class and then transferred to the fifth class without any trouble. He even knows seniors from higher grades."
Wang Lan released his teammate's hand, still somewhat dissatisfied, "Isn't he just a privileged student? Our whole team are Soul Grandmasters at the second ring, what are we afraid of?"
"We're all in Zone Eleven, he's not showing us any respect."
"Wang Lan, they're the team with two Soul Elders," the remaining girl couldn't bear it any longer and her words shut Wang Lan up.
Two Soul Ancestors? It's actually that guy...
"Now you understand, our luck is so bad..." the rest of the teammates sighed.
"Squad leader, they're all afraid of you," Zhu Lu chuckled.
Although the students nearby were speaking very quietly, Shui Wuya's hearing was sharp enough to catch their words.
"Is it our turn soon?"
Dai Huabin nodded. As a team, they were the first to battle and could enter the arena ahead of time.
Arriving at Zone Eleven, the noisy voices around them suddenly quieted down a lot.
Shui Wuya walked directly to the center of the arena, where a teacher was checking the list in his hand.
"You're Shui Wuya?" The teacher recognized him at a glance; Shui Wuya was very famous among the teachers.
"Yeah, you're the first team to battle. Go over there and wait; your opponents haven't arrived yet."
Shui Wuya nodded and sat cross-legged on the spot.
The teacher looked at him in surprise.
Underneath Shui Wuya's body was a layer of ice, separating him from the ground.
Though he appeared to be sitting on the ground, he was actually sitting on the ice layer, ensuring his clothes wouldn't get dirty.
This level of control was truly astonishing.
Soon after the teacher finished checking the list, a broadcast sounded, urging all the freshmen to enter their designated areas for the assessment.
People began to arrive at Zone Eleven, and they immediately saw Shui Wuya in the center of the arena.
Before they could communicate, the teacher spoke directly.
"The first assessment match, Freshman Class Five, Shui Wuya, Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu."
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu stood by Shui Wuya's side.
The teacher nodded and continued, "Opponents, Freshman Class Three, Wang Lan, Chen Fei, Chen Yu."
