Chapter 66: Young People Don't Talk About Martial Virtue!

~14 min read 2,732 words

"Uh, this, I guessed it..." Wang Dong naturally could not say that it was Su Yu who told him.

Regarding Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, Huo Yu Hao did not hide much, because ever since Su Yu went to the Soul Guidance Department, Xiao Xiao had become his teammate, and the relationship between the three of them could be considered quite good.

After recounting what had just happened in the office, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao both widened their eyes.

However, this time, there was no participation from Qian Duoduo, and as for Huo Yu Hao, his status as a Core Disciple of the Martial Soul Department could also be considered completely solidified.

"Class Monitor, it seems you have become a popular commodity now; it looks like Dean Yan is very sincere toward you this time," Xiao Xiao said, looking at Huo Yu Hao with a smile.

Hearing Xiao Xiao say this, Huo Yu Hao felt a bit embarrassed instead, and looking at Xiao Xiao's pretty little face, he said: "What does this count for? The truly amazing one should be Su Yu. It's just a pity he chose the Soul Guidance Department; otherwise, he would probably be the same as me."

Wang Dong nodded in agreement from the side, "No way around it, if that guy hadn't insisted on going to the Soul Guidance Department, he probably could have really entered the Inner Court smoothly from the Martial Soul Department."

"Alright, alright. We should believe in Su Yu. If he really isn't suited for the Soul Guidance Department, at worst we can let him return to the Martial Soul Department. After all, we have all witnessed Su Yu's potential for development in the Martial Soul Department."

Mentioning Su Yu, the expressions of the three could not help but turn somewhat dim. Logically speaking, such a good seedling for the Martial Soul Department would definitely stay in the Martial Soul Department; how could anyone be like Su Yu, diving headfirst into the Soul Guidance Department?

At this moment, Huo Yu Hao asked as if he had remembered something: "Xiao Xiao, how did your assessment go?"

Xiao Xiao giggled and said: "I actually got a higher score than our Class Monitor Wang, 110 points! I am also majoring in the Control System, and after choosing a Millennium Soul Beast, I just wore it out for half a day. Anyway, before my soul power was exhausted, it couldn't do anything to me, and then the judges gave me a high score. It's just a pity..."

As she spoke, Xiao Xiao sighed leisurely, a move that left Wang Dong and Huo Yu Hao somewhat confused.

"Pity what? Your score is even higher than mine, what else is there to pity?" Wang Dong looked at Xiao Xiao, puzzled. He truly did not understand, having already received a high score of 110, what was there to pity?

As she spoke, Xiao Xiao summoned her martial soul and said: "If only I could be like the Vice Class Monitor..."

"You this..."

…………

"Hahaha..." Huo Yu Hao couldn't help but laugh as he looked at Xiao Xiao's somewhat resentful face.

Indeed, as a Twin Martial Souls user, which is rare to the extreme, why couldn't she be like Su Yu?

"Let's go, let's go, it's time to go back. To be like Su Yu, we also have to improve our own strength, don't we? When we have enough strength to become Inner Court disciples, that will be when we have established a firm footing in the academy. So, our road is still long."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Huo Yu Hao could not help but sigh; the road of life is long indeed.

Sea God Island.

There are many buildings on Sea God Island, but there is only one that is the tallest and most magnificent. That is the Sea God Pavilion located at the heart of the island.

The Sea God Pavilion can basically be considered a treasure vault. Places with treasures are prone to attracting thieves, and there is no telling how many guys who are confident that they are at the peak have tried to break in to make a fortune, only to go in and never come out again.

The future Hall Master Jing Hongchen also had to pay a Level 9 Soul Guidance Device as an entrance fee before being released by Mu Lao.

Little did he know, having gone in once, there is no telling how many Soul Guidance Devices Jing Hongchen lost, and he even had to be robbed by Mu Lao. It is estimated that the biggest psychological shadow of his life was left by this trip to Sea God Island.

However, at this moment, the Sea God Pavilion was still discussing two matters. The first matter was about Huo Yu Hao, and the second matter was about Su Yu.

After deliberation by a group of big shots, Huo Yu Hao's Extreme Ice would be cultivated as an important talent of the Martial Soul Department, while Su Yu was officially granted the position of a trainee for the Extreme Individual Soldier Plan.

Su Yu, in his dormitory, could actually roughly guess the current decision; counting the time, it was about time for this.

Soon, Huo Yu Hao received the latest notification that he would be cultivated as a key talent among the Core Disciples, while Su Yu, due to the uniqueness of his martial soul, had his dual-core status retained as an exception and also received the information that Fan Yu had intentionally or unintentionally revealed.

Extreme Individual Soldier Plan...

"Yo, classmate Su Yu, you still have dual-core status now; can you order two portions of food when it's time to eat?" At this moment, Wang Dong truly did not know that his words would become the great dream of a "Rice-Eating Dragon King" in the distant future.

Hearing this, Su Yu did not respond to Wang Dong, but Wang Dong's next sentence put Su Yu in a difficult spot.

"I am very curious how you knew Huo Yu Hao had Twin Martial Souls. At first, he only had a Spirit Eye martial soul; how did he become a Twin Martial Souls user after just one vacation?"

A series of questions was like a direct blow to the head for Su, who was a spoiler.

"I'll only say three points, you can guess the rest yourself. First, Huo Yu Hao is not someone who would be late. Unless something major happened, it is impossible for him, given his personality, to risk being expelled just to almost miss the registration."

"Second, haven't you noticed that Huo Yu Hao's soul power and his own temperament have undergone a fundamental change since he came back?"

"Third, I can predict the future..."

As he spoke, the great charlatan Su looked at Wang Dong with a solemn face and said slowly, "I also know that you are..."

"Hm? I am what? Speak! You bastard, would it kill you to finish your sentence?" Wang Dong was practically itching to bite this guy twice. After hooking someone's curiosity, he always only said half of it; was he trying to anger someone to death?

"You are a pig, hahaha..."

As he spoke, he used both hands to squeeze Wang Dong's cheeks toward the center, and Su mocked the curious-baby-like Wang Dong quite unscrupulously.

"You bastard, I haven't settled the account with you for drawing a pig's head on my hand back then, and now you dare to bring it up again. I'll fight you! I'm not a pig, you're the pig, your whole family is pigs!"

Mentioning the word "pig," Class Monitor Wang still remembers it vividly to this day. His mind was full of the pig's head Su Yu drew on his palm with some unknown ink, which he didn't wash off for several days after going back, and he even mocked him, saying that the price of pork in Douluo Continent had gone up and he was worried he would be kidnapped...

Sure enough, as expected, the entire dormitory was bathed in golden holy light, followed immediately by the screams of Su.

Wang Dong sat on Su Yu's back, pressed Su Yu's head onto the bed, and asked: "Do you submit?"

"I submit, I submit." Su Yu rolled his eyes helplessly.

"Tell me now, who is the pig?" Wang Dong, having gained the upper hand, continued to press him.

However, Wang Dong thought Su Yu would obediently submit like before, but the next instant, Su Yu said: "You are the pig."

"Good for you, Su Yu, today I will definitely teach you a lesson."

As soon as the words fell, the Su Yu in front of him turned into a cloud of black mist with a 'bang' and dissipated instantly.

"Wang Dong, oh Wang Dong, we've been roommates for a year already, why are you still so stupid?"

Sitting on his own bed and looking at Wang Dong's dazed expression, Su Yu could not help but sigh.

Just like that, the ashamed and angry Wang Dong pounced again and wrestled with Su Yu into a ball.

But the next instant, he was so frightened by a sentence from Su Yu that he shrank back into his quilt.

"If I remember correctly, someone is ticklish."

Just this understated sentence made the Assault System Class Monitor Wang flee in panic, while still stubbornly saying: "I won't mess around with you today. This Class Monitor needs to cultivate properly; I can't let anyone take away my position as the Assault System Class Monitor."

The Upgrade Assessment would last for a long time anyway; after all, with hundreds of people, it would take a lot of time to assess them one by one.

And Su Yu went to the Soul Guidance Department, where he could see He Cai Tou waving at him from afar.

"Brother He, long time no see." Su Yu walked quickly to the front of He Cai Tou.

He Cai Tou laughed, reached out and patted Su Yu's shoulder, and said: "I heard you are the only dual-core disciple. If you hadn't insisted on joining the Soul Guidance Department back then, you would probably be fought over by now. However, it seems the Martial Soul Department produced an even more amazing Huo Yu Hao."

Su Yu nodded, "That is true, but I still prefer the Soul Guidance Department. Huo Yu Hao's martial soul is Extreme Ice, after all; it is indeed more suitable for the Martial Soul Department."

"By the way, Brother He, what is the assessment for our Soul Guidance Department?" It was actually not surprising that He Cai Tou knew some news about the Sea God Pavilion's deliberations; after all, he was Fan Yu's direct disciple and also the original candidate for the Extreme Individual Soldier Plan.

He Cai Tou draped his arm over Su Yu's shoulder as they walked inside, saying as they went, "Actually, our Soul Guidance Department's assessment is the same as the Martial Soul Department's—it's all live combat. Only after undergoing live combat can one demonstrate the strength of us Soul Engineers. For this reason, Teacher Fan Yu specifically designed your assessment."

After entering the assessment arena, the match between Zifeng and Moke had already arrived. If nothing unexpected happened, the next part should be three people ganging up on him alone.

"Wait, Su Yu, you're up for the next group." Seeing that Su Yu had arrived, Fan Yu spoke without hesitation.

"Moke, Zifeng, Ye Canying, Tang Suifeng, Ling Xue." Fan Yu's voice rang out once more. Su Yu now only felt that his pressure was growing greater and greater.

In the original work, Huo fought three at once, and you, damn it, are making me fight five. You really think highly of me, damn it.

For some reason, Su Yu felt that Fan Yu's gaze was a bit too fervent. That gaze, like that of a kind old father, gave Su Yu goosebumps all over his body.

"The five of you go together. As long as you defeat him, I will consider you to have passed this year's Upgrade Assessment." Fan Yu's words were simply a bombshell.

Five fifteen or sixteen-year-olds coming to gang up on a second-year junior?

Is this good? This is not good. So I advise you young people not to abandon martial virtue; be careful of yourselves.

Immediately, these four men and one woman looked at each other in dismay; they could not understand what Fan Yu was trying to do. Even if the junior was strong, it was impossible for him to achieve victory against the five of them joining forces, right?

The five people opposite were all third or fourth-year students. Although some had been eliminated from the Martial Soul Department, those who had not been weeded out at Shrek Academy could not possibly be weaklings. Of course, these guys could not be compared to the protagonist's group.

"Why are you hesitating? Are you not listening to what I said?"

Fan Yu directly interrupted their hesitation and signaled for both sides to begin the assessment.

Because it was five against one, the assessment arena was very large, a square field over a hundred meters in length and width.

Although Su Yu was complaining in his heart, he was confident he would not lose to these five guys, especially since four of these five guys hadn't even reached the Three-Ring level. It is no exaggeration to say that even if Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu joined forces, they could beat these four Second Ring users—and one Three-Ring user—to a pulp without using their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

These five students were all Level 2 Soul Engineers, but they overlooked one point: when Su Yu was at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, he had already officially become a Level 3 Soul Engineer before leaving.

"Assessment, begin!"

Accompanied by the loud shout of the assessment teacher, the five people opposite also began to quickly manifest their martial souls and then assemble their Soul Guidance Devices.

One against five? Are you kidding me?

Actually, if one were to set aside Soul Guidance Devices, as long as Su Yu got close, he could take all five of these people down in an instant, just like when he fought Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu alone back then.

However, since he was a student of the Soul Guidance Department now, he had to show something, otherwise, if he purely used Martial Soul Department methods to bully them, he really might be looked down upon by Fan Yu.

Yet, in the next instant, two metal cannon barrels with astonishingly large calibers appeared on Su Yu's shoulders. If they hadn't realized those weren't Fixed Spirit Cannons, they would have almost been scared into scattering and fleeing.

The next instant, Su Yu's Soul Guidance cannon barrels released a strong, incandescent light, blasting a shot directly at Moke, who had not yet fully prepared.

"I..."

Just like that, in one exchange, the unlucky Moke was the first to be carried off, but the others were not scared off by Su Yu's surprise victory.

Immediately following, four Soul Guidance Rays aimed at Su Yu, but strangely, Su Yu did not dodge and was hit directly by the four Soul Guidance Rays.

The oldest, Ye Canying, was a bit puzzled. Had he been scared silly? Why didn't he dodge?

The next instant, just as someone on the scene was about to speak, they were stopped by Fan Yu.

It was seen that Su Yu, who had been hit by the Soul Guidance Rays, instantly turned into a cloud of black mist and then vanished from the arena.

Where is that person?

"He is behind us. Don't get distracted; his martial soul is a bit strange," Ling Xue spoke up to warn them.

The next instant, two Soul Guidance Rays exploded not far from Zifeng. The air wave kicked up by the Soul Guidance Rays made Tang Suifeng, who was close to Zifeng, a bit unsteady on his feet.

He had thought this strike would cause damage to the two, but Su Yu still underestimated the defensive level of the Soul Guidance Protective Barrier. With his current Soul Guidance Cannon, unless it was a direct hit or exploded right beside them, it would really be completely neutralized by the Soul Guidance Protective Barrier.
