"Of course, I welcome you anytime, Xiao Xiao."
As he spoke, Huo Yuhao had unconsciously placed his hand on Xiao Xiao's shoulder.
Although Xiao Xiao was initially shocked, she quickly relaxed.
Huo Yuhao was a good class monitor. He probably didn't mean anything by it, and he was just placing his hand there without any further action.
That left only one possibility!
"The class monitor is encouraging me!"
Xiao Xiao's eyes shone with even greater joy.
When she looked at Huo Yuhao, her pretty face also flushed crimson.
For some reason, she, who had never paid attention to Huo Yuhao before, thought the class monitor was exceptionally handsome this time.
She couldn't help but mutter softly.
"Actually… if it were the class monitor, it wouldn't be so bad…"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Xiao's face turned red, and her thoughts raced.
Xiao Xiao, oh Xiao Xiao, you're too shameless, actually wanting to have two men at once!
After taking three deep breaths, she finally calmed her emotions.
Then, after bowing to Huo Yuhao, she left.
After Xiao Xiao left, Wang Dong leaned over, her shoulder brushing against Huo Yuhao's.
Their relationship had become exceptionally close since that night.
It was as if all their previous conflicts had vanished.
Watching Xiao Xiao's departing figure, Wang Dong seemed a little envious.
"What? Do you like that girl?"
"Hahaha, Wang Dong, you're wrong. Xiao Xiao doesn't like me; she likes you!"
"Ah?"
Wang Dong was somewhat incredulous, but then she thought about how handsome she looked in her male disguise, so it wasn't entirely surprising to be liked.
"Hmph! With how handsome I am, plenty of people like me."
Huo Yuhao didn't deny it. Instead, he pulled Wang Dong aside and whispered to her.
"Then we'll do this, and you do that, and then I'll do this… and finally, like this, Xiao Xiao will definitely fall!"
Huo Yuhao's plan made Wang Dong's face flush red, her eyes widened, and even the way she looked at Huo Yuhao changed.
She never expected that after sleeping together for so long, she still didn't know Huo Yuhao was so… underhanded.
But for some reason, Wang Dong felt incredibly excited, as if a unique thrill was pounding at her heart.
Afterward, she agreed.
The day of the New Student Assessment arrived quickly.
The classroom was already filled with students. They sat together, rubbing their hands together and discussing tactics.
"Bang, bang, bang."
Three knocks echoed through the room. In the next instant, the entire class fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Zhou Yi stood at the classroom door, her right hand just lowered. She had been the one knocking on the door.
Walking slowly to the podium, Zhou Yi still wore her usual icy expression. "I've already submitted the team list. The competition starts officially this afternoon. During the ten round-robin matches, you won't face each other, only students from other classes."
"Dismissed. Gather at the assessment area this afternoon."
With that, Zhou Yi left directly.
"Huo Yuhao, Huo Yuhao, let's see how you'll lose face!"
Time quickly passed, and it was already afternoon.
The assessment area of Shrek Academy was located in the north-central part of the Martial Soul department, adjacent to the Battle Soul Arena.
Compared to the Battle Soul Arena, the assessment area was much larger.
For the Outer Court students of Shrek Academy, this place was a paradise for excellent students to display themselves, but it was also a nightmare for students with lower cultivation levels.
Every year, a large number of students were eliminated because they failed the assessments. Most of these assessments took place in this very assessment area.
The assessment area was oval-shaped, not like the Battle Soul Arena, which resembled an enclosed stadium, but rather an open space.
The outer perimeter was enclosed by low walls, while the interior was divided into individual areas by partitions. These partitions could be easily disassembled to alter the size of the areas.
The New Student Assessment always saw the most extensive division of the assessment area. This was not only due to the large number of new students but also because of their limited destructive power and attack range, meaning they didn't require a large area to demonstrate their abilities.
The entire assessment area was approximately twenty thousand square meters, currently divided into fifty zones, each about four hundred square meters, roughly a square with sides of twenty meters. This was more than sufficient for new students, who generally had only one or two rings of cultivation.
After the intense grouping in the morning, the assessment officially began in the afternoon. Since it was the first day of the assessment, each group only needed to participate in one match before leaving, allowing the new students to get accustomed to the process.
The academy dispatched fifty teachers to record the assessments in each of the fifty zones.
The opponents for today's matches had already been determined through a lottery during lunchtime.
The goal was to ensure that teams from the same class wouldn't meet during the upcoming ten-match round-robin.
Competition at Shrek Academy was undoubtedly fierce and brutal, but it was precisely because of this that the tense atmosphere pushed the students to work harder and stimulated their potential. This was how Shrek Academy had maintained its undefeated status for ten thousand years.
There are fifty areas for the New Student Assessment, meaning each area is assigned six or seven teams of students.
Not only today, but they will also compete in the same area tomorrow against the other teams assigned to it. They will continue until every team has faced each other, then they will be regrouped. Finally, each team will complete ten matches.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao stood alone in the assessment area, making him stand out like a crane among chickens.
The surrounding students were also discussing him.
"Strange, why is this person taking the assessment alone? Where are his teammates?"
"Hey, I found out. This guy's name is Huo Yuhao, and he's the only one participating in the assessment this time!"
"Wow, whoever meets Huo Yuhao will have a great time, right?"
"Hmph, it's not just that. It's said that he's only a one-ring Soul Master. I'm afraid he'll lose face today!"
...
As Huo Yuhao's information was shared, everyone's gazes turned to him, filled with a look of longing.
Many had already begun to secretly pray, hoping to encounter Huo Yuhao!
"Attention all new students, attention all new students, please enter the assessment area immediately to prepare for the New Student Assessment. You have ten minutes left to enter the arena. Those who are late will be considered to have forfeited this assessment."
A booming broadcast resounded throughout the Outer Court, its sound capable of reaching every corner.
The new students' expressions became serious, as their first assessment was about to begin. It was impossible not to be nervous.
While everyone else was taking deep breaths, Huo Yuhao took the lead, casually heading towards the assessment area.
In terms of momentum, Huo Yuhao was already far ahead, easily surpassing everyone else!
