"You have Twin Martial Souls?" Wang Dong looked at Xiao Xiao with surprise in a quiet pavilion by the Sea God Lake.
Xiao Xiao's cute, childlike face was full of confidence as she nodded her little head.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Wang Dong, as if to say, "You're acting like you don't have Twin Martial Souls."
Oh right, I've got Twin Martial Souls too.
It really is the 'carrying a backpack' combination, isn't it?
Xiao Xiao paused, then said, "You all know my first Martial Soul, the Three-Life Soul Suppressing Cauldron. It's a Martial Soul that can be used for both offense and defense. My second Martial Soul is called the Nine Phoenix Auspicious Flute, a control and support type Martial Soul."
"Does your second Martial Soul have a Soul Ring yet?" Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered that Xiao Xiao seemed to have already added a Soul Ring to her second Martial Soul in advance.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's serious expression, Xiao Xiao fidgeted with her small hands, "I added one."
"Huh?" Wang Dong was surprised. "Xiao Xiao, you forgot the biggest advantage of a Twin Martial Soul. Why did you think of adding a Soul Ring so early?"
Xiao Xiao said helplessly, "I was thinking of adding a little more special ability to myself, so I went to absorb a Soul Ring in advance. But don't worry, I won't add a Soul Ring to my second Martial Soul in the future, until I become stronger."
"What about you, Wang Dong? Did you add a Soul Ring to your second Martial Soul?" Huo Yuhao suddenly asked.
"How could I add a Soul Ring to my second Martial Soul so early..." Wang Dong answered subconsciously, but suddenly realized something, his eyes instantly cleared up, and his face turned to Huo Yuhao.
Xiao Xiao was already dumbfounded.
What does that mean? You also have a Twin Martial Soul?
Wang Dong's lips trembled, "How did you..."
Huo Yuhao patted his shoulder and sighed, "I just asked casually, but I didn't expect you to really have a second Martial Soul. It seems that I'm the weakest one in our team."
"Of course not, Class Monitor, your Soul Skills are the strongest." Xiao Xiao was very perceptive.
"Thank you." Huo Yuhao gave Xiao Xiao a thumbs up, "I'll treat you to grilled fish next time, Class Monitor."
Xiao Xiao gave a simple smile.
Wang Dong shook off Huo Yuhao's hand, "Alright, I admit it, I also have a second Martial Soul."
Xiao Xiao immediately became interested, "Wang Dong, what's your second Martial Soul?"
Wang Dong glanced at Huo Yuhao and casually said, "Clear Sky Hammer."
Xiao Xiao's already large eyes widened even further.
"If you had used the Clear Sky Hammer against me that day, I probably wouldn't have been able to beat you." Huo Yuhao chimed in.
"Come on, you. If your simulation Soul Skill suddenly released without any warning, I might have wet my pants too. How could I have used the Clear Sky Hammer to smash you then?" Wang Dong said, annoyed.
Luckily, he had held it in that day, or else it would have been a disaster.
The dignified young master of the Clear Sky Sect almost wet his pants in public. If word got out, what would happen?
Huo Yuhao smiled. If Wang Dong had really wet his pants, and if Great Bright and Second Bright found out, they would have come to Shrek Academy to kill him on the same day.
"Class monitor, did the person we just met have a grudge with you?" Xiao Xiao suppressed her surprise and curiously asked Huo Yuhao about her previous doubts.
Wang Dong also realized something and looked at Huo Yuhao with burning eyes.
"Yes," Huo Yuhao didn't hide it.
"Heh. That's interesting. How about it? Do you want me to help you beat him up?" Wang Dong patted Huo Yuhao's shoulder in return.
"You can't beat him," Huo Yuhao said bluntly.
Wang Dong's lips twitched. "Can't beat him? There's no one below Soul Elder I'm afraid of."
"He's a Soul Elder," Huo Yuhao added.
Wang Dong was silent for a moment, then spoke after a couple of seconds. "Hmph, as long as this young master uses special abilities, even a Soul Elder will have to take a slap before things are over."
Huo Yuhao didn't argue with Wang Dong. Who knew if Wang Dong had some hidden trump cards.
"Class monitor, if we meet them, I'll definitely help you get even," Xiao Xiao patted her chest, which was just starting to develop, and promised.
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly. "I've already thought about how to deal with him, but if we really meet them, I'll have to rely on you and Wang Dong. After all, as you know, my Martial Soul currently has no offensive power."
Xiao Xiao nodded seriously.
Wang Dong, however, smiled faintly. "No problem, Xiao Xiao and I will hold them off then."
"If things go as expected, this team will be our biggest rivals," Huo Yuhao said to the other two. "Alright, let's share our Soul Skill characteristics today so we don't get thrown off tomorrow during the competition."
Both of them nodded in agreement.
They spent the entire morning and afternoon exchanging information.
The arrival of the new student assessment caused the atmosphere in Shrek Academy's outer court to become tense. In contrast, the senior students were happily watching the scene unfold, as they had all gone through it before.
It could be described as...
The same feeling Huo Yuhao had during his military training in his previous life, when some senior students walked around with watermelons.
Night.
In the dorm room.
Huo Yuhao made an outrageous request to Wang Dong.
"What?" Wang Dong's fair earlobes flushed slightly. "You want to hug me?"
"Just a hug. Don't worry, I have no other intentions," Huo Yuhao said softly.
"I believe you, my foot," Wang Dong retorted, quickly grabbing a pillow and preparing to throw it at Huo Yuhao.
"If you let me hug you, I'll clean the dorm by myself from now on," Huo Yuhao unleashed his ultimate move.
Wang Dong hesitated for a moment, then looked at the spacious dorm room. He made a difficult choice with a sigh.
"I'm definitely not letting you hug me because I don't want to clean. You can hug me, but don't touch me inappropriately."
That handsome face, which had captivated countless girls, was now slightly flushed.
After all, Huo Yuhao knew her true gender.
Huo Yuhao didn't care about that. He strode forward and directly embraced Wang Dong.
Wang Dong's body was soft, and she had a very faint, elegant fragrance.
The two of them were embracing, their faces close.
Feeling Huo Yuhao's breath, Wang Dong's breathing quickened.
But Huo Yuhao soon broke the peace. "Wang Dong, try circulating your Soul Power."
"Why?"
"Just do it."
Wang Dong pouted, and a gentle aura of blue-gold Soul Power emanated from her.
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly, and he released his own Soul Power.
In an instant, the blue-gold and silver-white lights met in the dormitory.
Huo Yuhao stared, and this gaze lasted for more than ten seconds. After watching the Soul Power that hadn't merged, Huo Yuhao had an idea.
"Are you done yet?" Wang Dong's voice was soft, like the sound of a beautiful instrument, and she had already reverted to her feminine voice.
"Not yet." Huo Yuhao replied, and then held Wang Dong's hands again. His hands were large, completely enveloping Wang Dong's small hands.
Watching this scene, Wang Dong was stunned.
The two's Soul Power collided with each other, but there was still no sign of merging.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao finally nodded in understanding and then let go of Wang Dong.
"Alright."
Before Huo Yuhao could say anything, Wang Dong immediately picked up his change of clothes and rushed into the bathroom.
Huo Yuhao raised his hand, shaking his head with a smile. He was definitely a gentleman; he had no bad thoughts.
But…
His gaze calmed, and Huo Yuhao looked at the silver-white Soul Power permeating his body, his mind filled with thoughts.
"There's no sign of fusion between our Twin Martial Souls, which indirectly proves that it was Tang San who made the move. The original Huo Yuhao could fuse with Wang Dong's Martial Soul. In this life, Tang San doesn't know me, so the fusion failed. It seems that, at least for now, I'm safe and won't be remembered by Tang San."
A simple discovery relieved Huo Yuhao. It at least proved one thing: he hadn't been exposed.
His mood immediately brightened.
In the bathroom, Wang Dong's face was flushed as she bathed in the warm water. It was unclear whether the color was due to the water's temperature or something else.
When Wang Dong came out, Huo Yuhao was already sitting cross-legged on the bed, cultivating. Since enrolling, he had never slept, always spending his time in meditation.
Ignoring Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong quickly lay down on the bed. Covering herself with the soft quilt, the room's lights went out the moment she lay down.
"I'll take care of the dormitory's cleaning from now on."
A calm voice spoke.
Wang Dong snorted softly and turned over, facing away from Huo Yuhao.
Someone definitely wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
The next day, as soon as the sky brightened, Huo Yuhao absorbed the energy from the first wisp of purple qi and went straight to the cafeteria to buy breakfast.
When he returned to the dormitory, Wang Dong happened to wake up.
"I bought breakfast for you. Go wash up and eat. I'll wait for you at the usual spot."
Huo Yuhao placed the bag on the table and turned to leave the dormitory. The morning breeze at Shrek Academy was very gentle.
Wang Dong didn't say a word and quickly washed up to eat.
As time passed, the dormitories became lively, with the sound of running everywhere.
The older students were calm and composed, chatting and laughing as they came down from different dormitories, without a hint of anxiety.
In contrast, the new students were all nervously running towards the teaching buildings.
"You've been reading this book for almost a month now." Huo Yuhao sat on the steps beside Mu En, his eyes fixed on the students moving in the distance.
On the recliner, Mu En happily flipped through the pages. "Reading a book only once lets you see just the surface. You need to dig deeper to discover more."
"Everyone hides countless secrets within themselves. Outsiders can't know these secrets, but when necessary, you can see through the fog."
"Little Hao, what do you think?"
Huo Yuhao's expression didn't change, and he continued to smile. "You're right."
Mu En's old face held a slight smile as he continued to flip the pages and read the book.
"Huo Yuhao."
A voice called out.
Huo Yuhao looked over to see Wang Dong walking down the stairs.
He patted his butt. "You watch first, I'm leaving."
Mu En just nodded, no longer paying attention to Huo Yuhao.
Soon, Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao went to the classroom together.
"I found that you really like chatting with that old grandpa," Wang Dong couldn't help but say on the way.
"Respecting the elderly and caring for the young is a traditional virtue," Huo Yuhao joked.
"Not bad, not bad, this young master appreciates you," Wang Dong couldn't help but pat Huo Yuhao's shoulder and praised.
The two of them arrived at the classroom, chatting and laughing.
Perhaps because of the assessment, in Class One, the students were in groups of three, chatting with each other. They should be discussing the next battle strategy.
Xiao Xiao stood alone in the corner, initially feeling a bit lonely. Upon seeing Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong, her beautiful eyes curved into crescents, and she trotted over, "You're finally here."
The team officially assembled.
"Everyone, return to your seats." As the classroom buzzed with faint chatter, Wang Yan walked in from the steps.
The leader had arrived, and the students quickly dispersed, taking their seats.
Wang Yan walked to the podium, facing everyone, and chuckled lightly, "I've already submitted the list of participating teams. The assessment officially begins during the afternoon class. It's divided into different assessment zones. Remember to go to Shrek Square later to draw lots. After getting your assessment zone, don't go to the wrong place, which could lead to being late for the match and being disqualified."
"Each team will compete in ten round-robin matches during this assessment. Fortunately, teams from the same class won't face each other, which avoids internal conflicts."
"I don't have much to say today. I just hope you all can pass this assessment smoothly, so that even if I don't teach you anymore, I can still hear you greet me on campus."
"Tell me, can you do it?"
"Yes!" everyone practically yelled.
"Very good, very energetic," Wang Yan said with a smile. "Class dismissed!"
Wang Yan left, and the students still needed to go to the Shrek Academy square to draw lots for the assessment.
"I hope we can draw a good lot," Xiao Xiao wished, clasping her hands together.
"Don't worry. Whoever meets us is going to be in trouble," Wang Dong said confidently.
It wasn't just Class One going to draw lots; other classes were going as well. The path there was packed with people, but this time Huo Yuhao didn't encounter Dai Huabin.
Twenty drawing points had already been set up in Shrek Academy square, just to let the students finish drawing quickly and leave.
Long lines were already forming in front of each drawing point.
Everyone in Class One followed Huo Yuhao's team.
It was clear how high Brother Hao's prestige was.
Wang Dong was the one drawing lots for Huo Yuhao's group, and their final assessment area was Area Thirty-Three.
Alright.
It was just like the original story's development.
But unlike the original, which had thousands of people in one place, the assessment areas were all separate. Each assessment area was built around a Soul Arena, and there were nearly dozens of these.
What the Shrek Academy's higher-ups were thinking was that if they needed to build new structures in the future, they would dismantle these, and the land would be available.
"I wonder how our opponents are doing?" Wang Dong held up the identity card for the assessment area.
The three of them had already left Shrek Plaza and were walking along a small path in the woods.
"We'll deal with whatever comes our way, no matter what." Huo Yuhao said casually.
"Oh, that's an interesting saying. Where did you learn it?" Wang Dong's eyes lit up.
"Oh, I made it up myself…"
"Huo Yuhao?"
Before Huo Yuhao could finish, a surprised and cold voice came from the side.
Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, and even Huo Yuhao were stunned. They turned their heads to look and saw a girl with short golden hair looking at them with a surprised expression.
Beside the young woman stood two other girls, one with short red hair and the other with long, light green hair.
"It's you guys." Huo Yuhao smiled. He didn't know the girl with the light green hair, but he recognized the other two.
They were Ning Tian and Wu Feng.
"You're also attending Shrek Academy?" Ning Tian looked pleasantly surprised.
Her features were already delicate and fair, and the sunlight made her skin seem as smooth as jade. The light on her pale blonde hair created a halo, making her eyes sparkle.
Her slender, graceful body was hidden inside a simple, beige dress without any extra decorations, making her look extremely refined.
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Not only am I attending, but I also have to participate in the freshman assessment."
Ning Tian glanced at Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, and understood immediately.
"We have something else to do, so we'll be going now," Huo Yuhao said, not being familiar with Ning Tian and not wanting to chat for long. They could just exchange a few words.
"Wait."
