Chapter 4: Who Goes to Shrek Academy?
However, just as both sides were in a stalemate, Huo Yuhao on the side quickly channeled his soul power into his Spirit Eye.
Within his deep blue eyes, a pale golden light emerged, and a translucent white Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet.
First Spirit Skill, Spirit Detection.
Second Soul Skill, Spirit Sharing.
A radius of thirty meters was presented to the eyes of Tang Ya, Bei Bei, and Su Yu, who was slacking off on the side; within this range, every subtle change was revealed.
"Is this the skill of a Million-Year Spirit Ring? Isn't this just wallhacks plus auto-aim?"
No wonder Huo Yuhao was the team's MVP in later battles; presumably, with this wallhack and auto-aim, if the difference in strength wasn't too great, it would be a total stomp!
The following scene was just as described in the original work: under Huo Yuhao's support, they went on a rampage.
Su Yu, who had been slacking off the whole time, had other plans in mind; the Tang Sect had one quota for admission without examination every year, but now that a change had occurred and they had taken in two disciples, there was only one quota for Shrek Academy, even if Tang Ya and Bei Bei might not necessarily mention this matter.
But Su Yu knew that things would definitely not be that simple; as a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Bei Bei was definitely not a simple person, and the Shrek admission quota was destined to be given to Huo Yuhao—this was an unchangeable fact.
"However, this can't stump me. Since I've latched onto Huo Yuhao, I naturally have preparations; otherwise, these years of mine would have been lived in vain. What's more, my innate soul power is four levels higher than Huo Gua's."
Just as Tang Ya was absorbing the Soul Ring, no one noticed the change in Su Yu's expression.
One could see the soul power on Su Yu's body fluctuate, showing faint signs of breaking through Level 10, but after a wave of fluctuations, it returned to normal.
When Tang Ya had completely absorbed the Soul Ring, Su Yu also stopped practicing the Mysterious Heaven Technique, but the content of their conversation focused on Huo Yuhao's wallhack and auto-aim cheat.
After chatting for a while, the group left the place, and dinner was naturally Huo Yuhao's signature grilled fish; as for where the fish came from, it was naturally electrocuted by Bei Bei directly.
Mr. Bei, you actually use the Tang Sect's supreme arts to catch fish; don't you know that electrofishing is illegal?
Alright, I admit this isn't Blue Star...
Complaining aside, Su Yu was still quite envious of Bei Bei's ability; with him around, he was practically a living, walking, human-shaped fishing device.
After dinner, it was inevitable to watch Tang Ya and Bei Bei flirting shamelessly.
When I read the book before, I didn't feel much, but thinking about it now, one is Blue Silver Grass, the other is Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon...
Teacher-student romance, puppy love, bondage, electric shocks—just thinking about it feels exciting. Good heavens, this will probably be even happier than the Chamber Douluo...
At night, Bei Bei called Su Yu and Huo Yuhao together and asked, "The Tang Sect has one quota for admission without examination every year, but now our Tang Sect has taken in two disciples."
Hearing Bei Bei mention Shrek Academy, Huo Yuhao's eyes gradually lit up.
Su Yu on the side spoke up: "That is to say, only one of us can use this quota to join Shrek Academy this year, otherwise we will have to go take the entrance test or wait until next year."
Tang Ya nodded, looked at the two, and said, "We hope you can discuss it yourselves, after all..."
Tang Ya hesitated slightly; clearly, she was truly not as good as Bei Bei when it came to handling these matters.
"I knew it, why would the Third Young Master write about the Wind Baboon? How could an NPC who appears just be a background character? Because the Wind Baboon attracted the attention of Tian Meng, he got a Million-Year Spirit Ring and a grandpa, and now another quota comes along. Woohoo, this wave is taking off directly!"
Su Yu, who was secretly complaining in his heart, couldn't help but sigh that the power of the protagonist's halo was incomparable; parents sacrificed to heaven, magic power boundless...
However, this matter could not stump Su Yu; he knew that in the process of Huo Yuhao's growth, Shrek Academy was a must-visit, but comparing Huo Yuhao's performance with the reactions of Tang Ya and Bei Bei...
Even if Huo Yuhao gave the quota to Su Yu, Su Yu would definitely not be able to get into Shrek Academy!
Rather than being passively beaten, it is better to take the initiative.
Just as Huo Yuhao was making a choice, Su Yu stepped out, patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder, and said, "Let Yu Hao go. Yu Hao is my friend and has saved my life, and what's more, he needs this opportunity more than I do, so I want him to go to Shrek Academy!"
Su Yu's words shocked everyone present; someone had actually voluntarily given up the quota to go to Shrek Academy—for them, this was simply an impossible thing!
Looking at the resolute Su Yu, Bei Bei was somewhat shocked and asked, "Junior Brother, do you know what kind of place Shrek Academy is? Are you really going to give up this opportunity?"
"Su Yu, you..." Huo Yuhao on the side was also shocked; he couldn't believe that Su Yu would be so straightforward, giving the quota directly to him and even saying that he needed this opportunity more.
"Su Yu, are you not joking?" Even Tang Ya was somewhat incredulous; after all, the opportunity for admission to Shrek Academy without examination was incredibly precious, yet Su Yu said he would give it up just like that.
Looking into Huo Yuhao's deep blue eyes, Su Yu continued: "Yu Hao, I know you have no family left; if you did, you wouldn't have come to the Star Dou Great Forest alone to hunt Soul Beasts. This is a very good opportunity for you. I am giving the opportunity to you because you need it more than I do. Besides, we are good friends, aren't we?"
Su Yu deliberately emphasized the words "good friends," which made Huo Yuhao's eyes moist with emotion.
"I know what I'm doing. At worst, I'll go to Shrek Academy to find you in a year. Don't tell me you got expelled by then; that would truly be letting down my expectations. Teacher Xiao Ya, Senior Brother Bei Bei, remember to take good care of Yu Hao for me."
As he said this, Su Yu smiled with a sense of relief, but he had different plans in his heart.
Huo Yuhao's admission was destined to be unchangeable, but as the son of a wealthy merchant from the Star Luo Empire with innate soul power of Level 5, was he really inferior to a guy like Huo Yuhao with innate soul power of Level 1?
Little did they know, Su Yu's soul power had long exceeded Level 10, but because he hadn't attached a Soul Ring, his current soul power was only Level 10.
In Dou I, the Grandmaster also said that a Soul Master's soul power can continue to rise without absorbing a Soul Ring, but the soul power level will not change.
As the son of a wealthy merchant, Su Yu naturally had his own plans. Although nine out of ten things the Grandmaster said were nonsense, one must discard the dross and select the essence.
Now, he only needed to absorb a suitable Soul Ring, and Su Yu's level would reach Level 15, becoming a one-ring Soul Master.
And the basic requirement for admission to Shrek Academy was Level 15. After all, having been on this Douluo Continent for some time, how could Su Yu not be prepared?
It is laughable that they really thought Su Yu was just a Level 10 Soul Scholar without a Soul Ring.
I have the ability to get admitted myself, so why should I go through the back door and rely on connections?
"Su Yu, you gave the quota to me, then what about you?" Huo Yuhao was ultimately too simple; clearly, he was also a bit anxious.
Su Yu patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder and laughed: "After I walk out of this Star Dou Great Forest, I will go find my family, don't worry about me."
Seeing the harmonious scene, Tang Ya and Bei Bei were also convinced by Su Yu's decision.
"Junior Brother Su Yu, since you have decided this, we respect your decision. We will take good care of Yu Hao. Believe that Yu Hao will definitely not let you down, and we will definitely save the quota for you next year."
Tang Ya looked at Su Yu's appearance and also praised him sincerely.
It must be said that Su Yu's words touched the hearts of Tang Ya and Bei Bei. Huo Yuhao did indeed need this quota more than he did. Since it couldn't be stopped, it was better to do a favor and establish a good image in the hearts of Tang Ya, Bei Bei, and Huo Gua.
Sometimes it seems like a dilemma, but for Su Yu, who had the first-hand intelligence on future developments, this was not a problem at all; on the contrary, every time was an opportunity!
