"I wasn't wrong. You will indeed be appearing on the battlefield. Just like combat Soul Masters, Shrek Academy cultivates all-around talents, but the most important aspect is still battlefield capability."
"I said on the first day of school that with the advent of Soul Tools, the classification of Soul Masters has become blurred."
"Even if you are a Support System or Food System Soul Tool Master, you can still unleash powerful combat strength with Soul Tools. But, where will your battle instincts come from? Is it possible that if a Soul Master is given a Soul Tool, they can just blindly charge onto the battlefield and survive?"
"Of course not. Combat ability must come from combat. Therefore, all of you must undergo a combat assessment."
"Of course, the Academy will never let Support System Soul Masters compete with Offensive System Soul Masters. That would be unfair to you."
"Therefore, the Freshman Assessment will be conducted in the form of team battles, but the number of people in each team won't be too many. The final decision for this year's team battle size is three people per team. This is a relatively high standard for your age group to achieve a certain level of coordination."
"When forming teams, the requirement is that there can be at most one Offensive System Soul Master. The other two team members can be freely chosen. First priority will be given to students from the same dorm as a team. Others can form their own teams. Those who fail to form their own teams will be decided by drawing lots."
"Just a moment, I'll give you a more reasonable plan for the group."
"The Freshman Assessment will be held across the entire grade. Because the number of students in our academy has grown significantly over the years, nearly three hundred groups of students will be participating this time. However, only half of them will be able to stay."
"That means the top one hundred and fifty groups. This ranking will be based on the points you earn in your combat matches."
"The matches will be drawn by lots. Each group of students must participate in at least ten battles, and the final ranking will be based on the number of wins."
"Among them, the sixty-four teams with the highest rankings will enter the elimination rounds. The top four students in the elimination rounds will each receive different rewards, and the champion team's reward will be extremely rare."
Every student listened attentively. For them, the Freshman Assessment was the key to whether they could stay.
Once eliminated, they could only go back and choose a second-rate academy, and they would probably never be able to become top-tier powerhouses on the Douluo Continent.
They had been working hard for three months, and none of them wanted to be eliminated at this moment.
After briefly explaining the assessment rules, Zhou Yi finally revealed a smile.
"Our class currently has 82 students, which allows for 27 groups, with one person left over."
"I've categorized you based on your respective Martial Soul characteristics, and after careful analysis, I've completed the group assignments for you."
"Here, my arrangements are final. No one can object. If you have any issues, then just drop out!"
With that, Zhou Yi immediately assigned Huo Yuhao to a group by himself! She wanted Huo Yuhao to face other classes' three-person teams alone, completely losing face!
This time, it would be Zhou Yi's victory! Hahahaha!
"Now, let's start the grouping. First group, Huo Yuhao!"
"Second group, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao..."
Huo Yuhao being in a group by himself shocked everyone.
But soon they reacted. Huo Yuhao was their big brother, after all. Being alone in a group might just be a way to have a bye.
Thinking of this, everyone looked at each other and gradually calmed down.
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, in the second group, stood up simultaneously after their names were called.
Xiao Xiao wasn't exceptionally outstanding among the first-year students; her abilities seemed to be average in all areas.
Xiao Xiao wasn't particularly beautiful, but she was pretty and delicate, very pleasing to the eye. After standing up, she was slightly shy, turning to look at Wang Dong.
Looking at the white horse prince in her heart, Xiao Xiao blushed and lowered her head.
And this scene naturally fell into Huo Yuhao's eyes. He looked at Xiao Xiao, a playful look rising in his eyes, and a plan emerged in his heart.
"A beauty trap!"
Huo Yuhao's hand under the table began to tremble.
"Group Three, Zi Hao, Ma Qingshuang, Leng Leng."
Zhou Yi seemed tough, but after she announced the groups, every student felt a sense of relief.
Only Huo Yuhao watched Zhou Yi in front of him with a cold gaze.
Good heavens, she's targeting me, isn't she? However, Huo Yuhao wasn't worried at all.
"Old geezer, you don't actually think you've already won, do you?"
After everyone finished being assigned into groups, Zhou Yi called out.
"Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, stay behind. Everyone else, go back."
Huo Yuhao, on the other hand, left the classroom and waited for Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao by the flower bed downstairs.
Before long, the two of them came down.
Huo Yuhao asked them a little.
"How was it? What did Zhou Yi say to you?"
"Sigh, what else could it be? Just telling us to win the championship, nothing else really."
"But what about you, Huo Yuhao? You're in a group by yourself. What are you going to do? The assessment is really tough! How can one person possibly beat three?"
Wang Dong's face showed some worry.
Huo Yuhao had prepared for this. He waved his hand.
"Don't worry, Wang Dong. You know what I'm capable of, right?" After saying this, Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow, his eyes looking particularly mischievous.
Wang Dong's pretty face blushed, and she chided, "Who knows what you're talking about!"
"How would I know if you're strong or not!"
"Go away, you're so annoying!"
Surprisingly, Huo Yuhao didn't object. Instead, he stood there and burst out laughing.
Xiao Xiao, standing to the side, was very envious of Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's close relationship. She snuck a few glances at Wang Dong before preparing to leave.
However, Huo Yuhao suddenly and unexpectedly appeared behind her.
"Xiao Xiao, do you like Wang Dong?"
"Ah! Class Monitor!"
Startled, Xiao Xiao cried out. Then, she looked up at Huo Yuhao, whose eyes were fixed on her, and shyly lowered her head.
"How about it? Do you want me to help you? Wang Dong and I are roommates. If I help you, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?"
Hearing Huo Yuhao offer to help, Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up. But there's no free lunch, and Xiao Xiao eyed Huo Yuhao with a touch of caution.
"Class monitor... we don't seem to know each other very well, why are you being so enthusiastic?"
"As the class monitor, isn't it my duty to help my classmates?"
Huo Yuhao's smile was genuine, but the teasing in his eyes was well-hidden.
As if infected by Huo Yuhao's smile, Xiao Xiao didn't overthink it and thought Huo Yuhao was a good class monitor!
"Thank you, class monitor! Then... then after the assessment, can I come find you?"
