Chapter 58
As dawn broke and the first hint of light appeared on the horizon, Huo Yuhao was awakened by the biological clock he had developed over the past three months.
While his soul was still asleep, his body instinctively got up and walked to the window, facing the purple aura in the east to begin cultivating the Purple Demon Eye.
After completing his daily morning tasks, Huo Yuhao, unusually, did not continue cultivating his soul power. Instead, he sat by the window, gazing at the distant scenery with a heavy heart.
As expected... many of Huo Qubing's "opportunities" in the original work were orchestrated by Tang San behind the scenes.
At the same time, there is another world consciousness urging Huo Yuhao to grow, which makes Huo Yuhao have to carefully distinguish whether what is offered to him is candy or a sugar-coated bullet.
As a pawn fought over by two great players, Huo Yuhao felt pressure for the first time, and it seemed he needed to change his playful attitude brought about by his transmigration.
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao glanced at his sleeping roommate with a somewhat complicated expression.
At this moment, Wang Dong unusually refrained from messing up the blankets, instead giving off an unusually "quiet" vibe.
If you ignore the dried tear tracks at the corners of Wang Dong's eyes...
Huo Yuhao's fondness for Wang Dong didn't actually develop after he transmigrated; rather, he had fallen deeply in love with this carefree "silly goose" when he read a book in his junior high school days.
Wang Dong was one of the few female characters in the novel that Huo Yuhao liked. Now that he had transmigrated here, the characters from the book were standing vividly in front of him. This strange feeling made Huo Yuhao ignore the conspiracies and schemes in the book for a moment. Instead, he was eager to experience the plot of the book firsthand.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao's mindset was like playing a VR motion-sensing game.
Last night's experience slapped Huo Yuhao in the face, telling him that all the unpleasant things Huo Yuhao experienced in the original novel would happen to him.
This isn't a game; it's reality. There's no save function to let you experience different endings over and over again. Instead, one wrong step can lead to utter ruin.
You have to get to the happy ending on your first try!
Therefore, unnecessary emotions should not become a distraction.
"Wang Dong, it's time to get up."
Looking at the time, Huo Yuhao realized there was only half an hour left before class. He snapped out of his reverie and casually woke up Wang Dong, who was still sleeping in.
"Hmm..." Wang Dong swayed as he sat up, rubbing his eyes in a daze. "What time is it?"
"Class starts in half an hour, so hurry up, I'm going to have breakfast first."
After saying that, Huo Yuhao walked out of the dormitory.
"Hey! Wait for me!"
The only response to Wang Dong was the sound of the door closing.
Wang Dong slowly lowered his raised right hand, his expression somewhat blank.
Wang Dong was surprised that Huo Yuhao, who used to always wait for her to go out to eat together, wouldn't wait for her today.
"Click—"
The dormitory door opened again, and Huo Yuhao walked in with a tense face.
"Hurry up, we're going to be late!"
"Oh, okay!" Seeing Huo Yuhao back, Wang Dong's face, which had been somewhat disappointed a second ago, immediately lit up with a smile, and he quickly began to wash up.
Seeing Wang Dong's flustered state, Huo Yuhao sighed.
Tang San kept staring. Although he couldn't figure out what Tang San was thinking, he had to maintain a friendly relationship on the surface and not let things get too tense if he wanted Tang San to continue to think that he and his daughter had a good relationship.
Fortunately, Wang Dong is thick-skinned, and the shadow of the failed spirit fusion dissipated by this shock, which helped him to cover up his gloomy mood in the subsequent matches.
If Wang Dong is reminded of the failed Martial Soul Fusion the moment he sees him, then there's no point in continuing.
It has to be said that Shrek Academy is indeed quite large. Having half an hour to eat breakfast and get to class on time is a bit too rushed.
Huo Yuhao ran all the way, wolfing down his breakfast before finally rushing into the classroom just as the bell rang.
"After three days, the new student assessments have all concluded. The final results were tallied last night."
"I have to say, you all worked very hard and made me proud. Out of the thirty-three groups of students in our class who participated in the assessment, a total of thirty groups passed the new student assessment, which is a pass rate far exceeding that of other classes."
"Some of them were even less talented than those who were eliminated, but they fought their way through the freshman assessment with a do-or-die spirit and won the qualification to advance. I have to say, you did a great job."
At this point, a rare smile appeared on Zhou Yi's aged face, though it looked somewhat eerie...
Although they received praise from Zhou Yi, the students in the audience did not cheer, but remained somewhat silent.
The three eliminated teams, those nine trainees, were training with them just a few days ago, enduring Zhou Yi's grueling training, but ultimately failed the new student assessment.
And how many more assessments will they be able to pass?
Perhaps less than half, or even fewer, of the ninety students sitting here today will graduate successfully?
"Among your thirty groups, fifteen groups still have not finished their freshman assessments because you have made it into the top sixty-four and will have to complete the next elimination round. The elimination round is where you will truly prove your excellence."
Zhou Yi then said a lot of encouraging words, which made Huo Yuhao secretly cover his mouth and yawn.
I've heard these kinds of words countless times in my past life, especially during the college entrance exam period. Now, hearing them again doesn't evoke any passion at all.
"Huo Yuhao! Be serious!"
Upon being caught, Huo Yuhao immediately went from being lazy and casual to sitting up straight.
"In this assessment, three groups produced three-ring Soul Masters. Facing three-ring opponents, I won't force you to get into the top three, but you must at least get fourth place, do you understand?"
"Yes!" X2
"Yes……"
Zhou Yi glanced at Huo Yuhao with a hint of helplessness. He usually cultivated so diligently, so why did he become so listless when it came to Soul Battle?
After finally getting through get out of class, Huo Yuhao and the other two were privately called out by Zhou Yi and given each of them a meal card worth 1,000 gold soul coins as a reward for their perfect performance in the assessment.
This solved Huo Yuhao's immediate problem. After all, in order to improve his physical fitness, Huo Yuhao tried to choose the best ingredients for every meal, and now the five thousand gold soul coins contributed by Wang Dong were almost gone.
After having lunch together, Huo Yuhao went to the Soul Guidance Area to work out again.
He has already gained some fame in the Soul Guidance Zone. Although he has not officially joined the Soul Guidance Department yet, Fan Yu has already reserved a spot for him as a core disciple.
Thanks to the fitness equipment program, Huo Yuhao is still ostensibly a student, but in reality, he has considerable power as he owns his own independent laboratory in the experimental area. For example, he can access a lot of soul guidance system information that is not open to the public, and he has a certain amount of rare metals every month.
These powers will bring him great convenience when Huo Yuhao officially begins to study soul tools.
However, this laboratory is now just Huo Yuhao's gym.
After greeting Fan Yu, Huo Yuhao began his daily weightlifting training.
