Chapter 115: Is This Plastic Surgery?

The qualification to enter the Inner Court is determined by the end-of-semester exam scores each semester; the first semester's assessment counts as zero points, and afterwards Ning Yue and Yu Longheng will need to expend several times the effort to close the gap with others and obtain the qualification to enter the Inner Court……

After thinking it over, Shen Yi didn't say anything, simply leading the two people toward the Soul Guidance Train station in Donghai City.

It was also at this moment that she saw a familiar figure.

It was a man, slender in build, with sharp eyes, a high nose bridge, thin lips, his whole person's bearing upright and tall. A head of lake-blue long hair reached his waist; as the breeze brushed past, strands of hair lifted lightly, fully displaying a unique charm.

This is…… Senior Brother Wu Zhangkong?

"Senior Brother!"

Wu Zhangkong, who was walking toward the Spirit Pagoda direction, heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from behind, and looked in surprise toward Shen Yi's position.

"Shen Yi?"

He and Shen Yi were senior and junior fellow disciples, both disciples of the Red Dragon Douluo of Shrek Academy.

"It really is you. I heard before that you were in Donghai City, and I wanted to go find you, but I had assessment missions on me, so it got delayed."

Shen Yi walked over, sizing up Wu Zhangkong from head to toe, and said with a smile: "Been well since we last met."

"Mm." Wu Zhangkong nodded indifferently, looking toward Ning Yue and Yu Longheng not far away, "They are the ones who were caught by the Spirit Pagoda during the previous assessment?"

"……You're still this merciless." Shen Yi sighed helplessly: "That's right, they are the students who were caught by the Spirit Pagoda for assaulting passersby on the roadside."

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhangkong withdrew his gaze, hesitated for a moment, then still reminded:

"The Academy's assessment should be changed."

"I'll propose it." Shen Yi asked curiously: "Speaking of which, how did you know about this matter?"

At the time, only those few people knew about this matter; it couldn't be that……

Wu Zhangkong said expressionlessly: "They are students of Donghai Academy; I am their teacher. Recently Xie Xie has been telling others in the class about the rudeness of Shrek Academy students."

How to put it, it was irrefutable, making his mood quite complex.

Standing from another perspective, their Shrek's assessment…… is somewhat hateful.

"They are your disciples?" Shen Yi's eyes lit up, "Do they have any intention of joining Shrek?"

"They are the Spirit Pagoda's people; they are merely my students, not my disciples."

Wu Zhangkong shook his head bluntly, causing Shen Yi's originally brightened eyes to dim, and she sighed.

"So it's like that, a bit of a pity. With that kind of peerless talent, if they entered the Academy, they would certainly become figures who stir up wind and clouds in the future."

Wu Zhangkong knew who she was referring to, didn't respond, and only asked: "Since the people have already been received, when do you plan to leave?"

"I received word on my end that the Heavenly Sea Alliance Grand Competition is already being organized and prepared. For this Grand Competition, they plan to invite our Shrek Academy students to play an exhibition match. The Academy had me come over to discuss, and I still need to stay here for a period of time."

Shen Yi explained a sentence, then asked in return: "You still don't plan to return to the Academy?"

"Don't want to."

Wu Zhangkong looked toward a direction, gently shaking his head.

"This…… alright then." Shen Yi sighed helplessly, about to leave, when she suddenly thought of something, "Will they participate in the Heavenly Sea Alliance Grand Competition?"

Wu Zhangkong nodded, "This batch of students is the strongest in history. Donghai Academy wants to make a name for itself and won't miss this opportunity. And as youthful geniuses, they always need a stage to display their talent; on this Donghai side, the Heavenly Sea Alliance Grand Competition is a not bad choice."

Not far away, Yu Longheng, who had been maintaining silence, abruptly looked toward Wu Zhangkong, his fists clenched until they made cracking sounds, fingernails digging deep into his palms, yet he was completely unaware of the pain.

That guy, will he participate too?

"Longheng, what's wrong with you?" Ning Yue beside him noticed his abnormality.

Yu Longheng didn't answer, his mind constantly recalling that day's scene.

The pain of bloodline suppression, he will return it with strength, absolutely!

……

In the Spirit Pagoda hall, Gu Yue Na took out a Soul Guidance Light Screen, somewhat hesitant about whether to make contact.

Today is the 81st day of Yuhao's absence; should I ask again?

Gu Yue Na tapped on the Soul Guidance Light Screen, but in the end still put it down.

Yuhao said soon; wait a bit more.

Xu Xiaoyan bounced as she walked into the hall assigned to their Class Zero by the Spirit Pagoda, noticing Gu Yue Na, "Sister Na, what are you looking at?"

"Not looking at anything."

Gu Yue Na calmly put away the Soul Guidance Light Screen, stood up, and walked toward the window.

Xu Xiaoyan walked over, asking with puzzlement: "Why hasn't Classmate Yuhao come back yet? Dean Yu has come to inquire several times already. It feels like she's very anxious."

While asking, Xu Xiaoyan also secretly observed Gu Yue Na's complexion.

But the latter maintained a cold expression throughout, and replied:

"He is together with his own teacher; it may still take a period of time……"

Gu Yue Na spoke halfway, stopped, looked toward the direction hundreds of meters outside the Spirit Pagoda, the corner of her mouth revealing a trace of a smile, and spoke no further.

Xu Xiaoyan noticed this scene, her gaze following to look over, and there discovered a familiar figure.

So Classmate Yuhao has come back…… but why does it feel like Sister Na and Yuhao have some kind of telepathy?

The moment he came back she discovered it……

……

On the first floor of the Spirit Pagoda, Huo Yuhao exchanged a few words with the work staff, and arranged a dwelling place for the Deep Sea Demon Whale.

That Deep Sea Demon Whale had been following him back to the Donghai seaside; if not settled properly, it would likely be hunted as a soul ring by people.

Turning around preparing to leave, Huo Yuhao sensed a connection approaching, and his footsteps paused.

"Yuhao!" A clear, cold voice like silver bells came from the elevator direction; Huo Yuhao turned around and saw Gu Yue Na walking toward him. Her black hair fell like a waterfall, black eyes like water, a white long dress outlining a perfect figure, her steps slow and composed.

But Xu Xiaoyan, panting behind her, knew the truth.

"Sister Na, wait for me!"

Xu Xiaoyan striding with her short little legs, following behind and muttering softly, "Clearly you were in such a rush when coming down, now pretending to be calm……"

Gu Yue Na's ear tips twitched slightly; she had obviously heard Xu Xiaoyan's complaint, but she chose to ignore it, her gaze locking on Huo Yuhao.

"You've come back." Gu Yue Na walked up to Huo Yuhao, sizing up his changes from head to toe, her heart suddenly skipping a beat.

Yuhao seems to have changed a lot...

Xu Xiaoyan followed up and also noticed something was off, "Classmate Yuhao, you seem... quite a bit better-looking."

The youth standing before her had a tall, straight figure; a simple white martial outfit outlined well-proportioned body proportions. His shoulders were much broader than before, yet his waistline remained trim and strong. Most eye-catching was that face — originally ordinary features now had distinct angles, a high nose bridge like a peak, and between his brows lay both a youth's freshness and a mature restraint.

However, the most eye-catching feature remained his eyes; his pupils had become even deeper and clearer, like a blue that contained an entire starry sky.

Did Classmate Yuhao go get plastic surgery these past few days? The results are this good?

Xu Xiaoyan blinked, a bit bewildered.

What place, can she try it too?
