[However, although Huo Yuhao had already made a decision in his heart regarding whether or not to join Shrek Academy's Inner Court,]
[he did not plan to reject Yan Shaozhe and Xuanzi outright at this very moment.]
[Naturally, this was not because he still wanted to join Shrek Academy's Inner Court.]
[For Huo Yuhao, once he learned of the absurd requirements for joining the Inner Court, there was absolutely no chance he would be willing to join it.]
[But even after deciding not to join, how one refuses others is itself a skill.]
[Huo Yuhao believed that if he rejected Shrek Academy outright on the spot, it would be very easy to offend people.]
[And that kind of offense was completely unnecessary.]
[Therefore, after some thought, he decided to temporarily drag this matter out.]
[He could tell Yan Shaozhe and Xuanzi that he needed some time to carefully consider it.]
[It just so happened that the first semester was about to end anyway.]
[Once the holiday arrived, Huo Yuhao could simply leave, and not come back next semester at all.]
[He could casually write a letter with some excuse—no matter what, it would be better than rejecting them face-to-face.]
[And most importantly, from observing their attitudes just now, Huo Yuhao realized that they truly wanted him to join.]
[So if he rejected them at this moment, and they happened to be narrow-minded, they might very well fly into a rage.]
[Creating an extra enemy like that would be completely unnecessary.]
[Thus, after thinking it through, Huo Yuhao quickly spoke again to Yan Shaozhe and Xuanzi before him:]
["So that's how it is…"]
["Thank you, Dean Yan and Elder Xuan, for the explanation. I now have a basic understanding of Shrek Academy's Inner Court."]
["However, joining the Inner Court is not a small matter, and the holidays are coming up soon."]
["So I was wondering—could you give me some more time to think it over carefully?"]
["I'd like to go back, think about it for a while, and also ask my family what they think."]
["May I?"]
Within the interplanar rift.
After witnessing this scene, Jing Hongchen and the others could not help but sigh once again.
"As expected of the parallel world's Huo Yuhao…"
"He handles things just as flawlessly as ever."
"Indeed, this makes it much less likely to offend anyone."
"Drag it out for a bit, then later just send a letter saying something came up and he can't return to Shrek Academy."
"That way, he escapes cleanly and doesn't offend anyone in the process."
"This really is a very good method!"
Kong Deming nodded in approval, his expression full of agreement.
Then he spoke again,"However, no matter what, the parallel world's Huo Yuhao is finally planning to leave Shrek Academy."
"He even left Little Meng his contact information earlier."
"It seems that before long, he'll be heading to our Sun Moon Royal Academy."
"With this, the parallel world's Sun Moon Royal Academy—no, even the Sun Moon Empire itself—is really about to take off!"
Thinking of this, Kong Deming became extremely excited.
After all, in their timeline, events had already progressed to before the Valley of Love's Trial.
So Kong Deming was perfectly aware of just how outstanding Huo Yuhao truly was.
Not just the parallel world's Huo Yuhao—
Even the original world's Huo Yuhao was exceptionally outstanding.
If not for him, Shrek Academy would never have won that previous Soul Master Tournament!
And that wasn't even counting the many other forms of assistance he had brought to Shrek Academy.
And now, the one about to head to their Sun Moon Royal Academy was the parallel world's Huo Yuhao!
In every aspect, the parallel world's Huo Yuhao could be said to completely surpass the original timeline's Huo Yuhao.
So for Sun Moon Royal Academy to obtain Huo Yuhao now—it was like a fish entering water, like rain after a long drought!
They were truly about to soar!
The more Kong Deming thought about it, the more excited he became.
By the end, he could not even hold back his laughter.
But unlike Kong Deming and the others,
the expressions of Shrek Academy's senior officials were now extremely unpleasant.
After all,
as Shrek Academy's upper echelon, they were all painfully aware of just how much Huo Yuhao had brought to Shrek Academy over the years.
Now that the parallel world's Huo Yuhao was leaving,
the losses Shrek Academy would suffer were practically incalculable.
Take the Soul Master Tournament, for example.
That previous tournament had only been won thanks to Huo Yuhao's help.
Now that the parallel world's Huo Yuhao was gone, their chances in that tournament were very likely doomed.
What would happen to Shrek Academy's long-standing honor then?
And not to mention—
after returning from Sun Moon Royal Academy, the original world's Huo Yuhao had brought back an enormous amount of soul tool knowledge.
That alone had driven tremendous development for Shrek Academy.
But now?
All of that would be gone as well.
The more they thought about it, the more unbearable it became for Shrek Academy's leadership.
Especially Mu En.
As he continued looking at Xuanzi and Yan Shaozhe, the displeasure in his gaze was unmistakable.
[But clearly, the Yan Shaozhe and Xuanzi within the screen had not realized any of this yet.]
[After hearing Huo Yuhao's response, they were absolutely overjoyed!]
[Because in their eyes, this matter was basically settled!]
[After all, Huo Yuhao had not rejected them outright!]
[And not rejecting them meant there was definitely interest!]
[Moreover, discussing such a matter with one's family was perfectly reasonable. In Yan Shaozhe's and Xuanzi's view, there was nothing wrong with it at all.]
[In fact, they even wanted Huo Yuhao to talk more with his family about it.]
[Because Shrek Academy's reputation was well-known far and wide. As parents, they would surely understand just how significant it was to join Shrek Academy's Inner Court.]
[So when the time came, they would certainly do their utmost to persuade Huo Yuhao to join Shrek Academy's Inner Court!]
[And for Xuanzi and Yan Shaozhe, wouldn't that make things even more secure?]
[Thus, at this moment, Xuanzi and Yan Shaozhe were truly brimming with excitement, barely holding back their laughter.]
[They then eagerly agreed with Huo Yuhao:]
["Of course that's fine! Even if you hadn't said it, we were planning to let you go back and properly discuss this with your family anyway."]
["So we approve!"]
["After the holidays begin, go home and discuss it carefully with your family."]
["Then when you return next semester to register, give us your answer."]
["We'll both be waiting for you at Shrek Academy!"]
