Chapter 31: Self-Introduction

The next morning, the opening ceremony was officially held on the drill ground.

After Yu Zhen gave a lengthy speech, Huo Yuhao heard a class assignment completely different from the original.

"Now we begin the class assignment ceremony. Everyone knows that at Donghai Academy, the smaller the class number, the more outstanding the students' strength usually is, but this is not absolute. We hope that those assigned to the later classes can also catch up and surpass through their own efforts. This year there are a total of one hundred and ten freshmen, who will be divided into five classes. Next, the students whose names I call please step forward."

"Huo Yuhao, Gu Yue Na... Xie Xie enter Class One."

"Tang Wu Lin... enter Class Two."

Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered slightly as he looked at Tang Wu Lin walking out excitedly and the other students heading toward the Class Two area.

The Spirit Soul Contract ultimately brought a different color to this era; among them were many people who originally should not have been able to obtain Hundred-Year Spirit Souls, yet now had different opportunities...

Thinking of this, a trace of a smile appeared at the corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth.

Long Hengxu: "Homeroom teachers of each class, lead the students back to your respective classes."

Huo Yuhao looked at the man walking over this way, lost his smile, and his eyelid twitched.

I see, so you are the surprise Tower Master Hua spoke of—

Teacher Luo Yanglu?

Looking at that man who had become familiar over the recent period, Huo Yuhao's expression was complex.

But on second thought he felt relieved; at least it wasn't Hua Yichen coming personally!

When he came near, noticing Huo Yuhao and Gu Yue Na's strange expressions, Luo Yanglu smiled and used Erqing Chengxian to say to the two of them:

"You should both have guessed that Donghai Academy plans to establish a special class, and for this has reached some cooperation with our Spirit Pagoda; you are the pre-booked students."

"As for the special class teacher, previously only that side's Wu Zhangkong was booked; he was once a Shrek Inner Court student, and we're not at ease entrusting you to him—if you're accidentally poached, there'll be nowhere to cry. So I was dispatched to teach Class One first and accumulate experience."

"Don't look at me being a first-time teacher; at least I'm better than that love-brained teacher on that side, right? If it weren't me, it would be that Class Two homeroom teacher leading you, and he might make you go ruthlessly slap Teacher Wu's face."

Huo Yuhao: "..."

Gu Yue Na: "..."

Five teachers, counting Luo Yanglu, three men and two women.

The two female teachers were in their twenties, young and pretty, looking somewhat similar; they were a pair of sisters, named Ye Yingluo and Ye Yingrong respectively.

One was the Class Two homeroom teacher, one the Class Three homeroom teacher, but neither went to look at their own students, instead staring straight at the Class Five homeroom teacher—Wu Zhangkong.

Unfortunately, Wu Zhangkong wore an expression that kept strangers away, not looking at them at all, merely saying "Follow me" to his own students before turning and leaving.

This was clearly unrequited love; Gu Yue Na even saw "anger born of love" in Ye Yingluo's eyes.

If they had truly been assigned to Class Two, this one would likely really do as Luo Yanglu thought, making them go defeat Wu Zhangkong's students in retaliation...

Encountering a love-brain right upon arrival, Gu Yue Na suddenly felt Hua Yichen's previous reminder was not without reason.

If the teachers are all like this, can the students possibly fare well?

Are human academies all like this? Not doing proper work, thinking about romance all day?

Gu Yue Na looked at Huo Yuhao and suddenly understood the reason the other party left behind that kind of ancestral precept.

Huh? The person beside him is yesterday's...

"Didn't expect we're in the same class, I'm Xie Xie."

Xie Xie walked to Huo Yuhao's side; seeing him look in the direction Wu Zhangkong left, he said:

"I heard from others that he's Donghai Academy's Cold Arrogant Male God; high-school girls and the academy's female teachers all like him—look at those two female teachers' eyes and you know how popular he is... what, are you envious? You're not bad either; that girl who was with you yesterday was looking at you."

Huo Yuhao turned his head to glance at Xie Xie, who had a stern face but spoke off-key words, then glanced at Gu Yue Na who was looking over. "I'm Huo Yuhao, and I'm friends with classmate Gu Yue Na."

Friends? That's not right, is it? That kind of ice-cold girl is only friendly to one person; however you look at it there's a problem.

Although he thought this, Xie Xie still didn't say it directly, instead saying: "Please take care of me in the future, genius of the Mecha Master Association. If you run into trouble later, come find me; I've got your back."

He wasn't completely sure before, but after Huo Yuhao said his name, he confirmed it—this was the peerless genius his father had been chanting about recently; no wonder he felt strangely familiar yesterday.

Their Xie family is a Mecha Family in Donghai, taking pride in becoming Mecha Masters, and has a good relationship with the Mecha Master Association. Recently his father often recited in front of him that a peerless genius had emerged there, becoming a Third-Rank Designer at a young age and designing a perfect blueprint for a colleague; he'd heard it until he was sick of it.

So what if the other party leads all the way in sub-occupation?

As the possessor of Twin Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power, Xie Xie has his own pride.

A Mecha Designer and a Soul Guide Array Manufacturer who engraves arrays are not the same; there are no strict soul power requirements, so in cultivation he definitely has the upper hand!

Huo Yuhao gave Xie Xie a strange look and nodded.

"If there's a chance."

Xie Xie nodded faintly, secretly delighted.

This secret delight lasted until everyone returned to the classroom and began self-introductions.

Luo Yanglu smiled benevolently at the students below. "Hello everyone, I'm Luo Yanglu, and I'll be serving as your homeroom teacher from now on. Everyone, introduce yourselves in the order I say, so I can understand your strengths and your goals."

"Classmate Xie Xie, you start."

Xie Xie sat in the front row; hearing this he stood up and said proudly: "Xie Xie, martial soul Light Dragon Dagger, soul power nineteen levels, goal is Agility Attack System Battle Soul Master."

The high nineteen levels of soul power rank made some students exclaim; at Donghai Academy, anyone who can become a Soul Elder before age twelve can be called a genius, and Xie Xie has more than enough.

But some people also revealed disdainful eyes.

After Xie Xie, more than a dozen people stood up to introduce themselves; average soul power was around fourteen or fifteen levels.

Until...

"Wei Xiaofeng, martial soul Green Shadow Snake, soul power twenty-two levels, Agility Attack System Battle Soul Master!"

Wei Xiaofeng basked in the all-eyes-on-him gazes, glanced at Xie Xie whose brows instantly knitted tight, and secretly sneered.

He is the strongest genius in this class!

Because his First Spirit Soul is the same as his martial soul, both Green Shadow Snake, under the Spirit Soul Contract's Feedback, his early cultivation speed is extremely fast, already not losing to those top-tier geniuses.

In his view, those students who enter Shrek Academy are only at this level at the same age.

Even his future goal is to enter Shrek Academy and ultimately become a generation-shaking Titled Douluo. He'd even thought of the title: "Green Shadow"!

Thinking this, the smile on Wei Xiaofeng's face grew even thicker.

Then, his smile froze on his face.

"Gu Yue Na, martial soul Elemental Master, soul power level twenty-seven, Power Attack System Battle Soul Master."
