Chapter 56 Two Eyes Go Black
Yan Shaozhe always wore a gentle smile, but his eyes revealed absolute confidence.
He believed that the boy in front of him would definitely not be able to refuse these "compensations," especially the priceless right leg bone of the 50,000-year-old Icefield Wolf King.
He refused to believe that the other party wouldn't take the bait.
And most importantly, he personally handled the inner courtyard badge, and the inner courtyard pavilion residence he chose for Huo Yuhao happened to be right next to Ma Xiaotao's.
Being close to the water tower, he was sure he would get the moon first. He refused to believe that after spending so much time together, Ma Xiaotao wouldn't be able to win over Huo Yuhao in front of her.
"At the same time, Huo Yuhao, I assure you," Yan Shaozhe emphasized, "that after you become an inner disciple, you will receive the full support of the academy's core resources."
The academy will do its utmost to equip you with all the necessary soul bones, and guarantee that the soul bones you fuse with will reach the highest possible standard. At least one of these will be a soul bone from a 100,000-year-old soul beast. And in the future, you'll receive at least another 100,000-year-old soul bone…”
Before Yan Shaozhe could finish explaining the tempting offer, the office door was kicked open.
Dressed in a jet-black military uniform, with a tall and imposing figure, Xian Lin'er stormed in angrily and shouted directly at Yan Shaozhe:
"Yan Shaozhe, have you no shame? How dare you steal my man?"
Startled by the shout, Yan Shaozhe also shuddered.
He first looked puzzled, then his expression darkened, as if he had thought of something.
Sitting opposite Yan Shaozhe, Huo Yuhao looked at Xian Lin'er, who rushed in and grabbed his arm to stand up, and put on an "innocent" expression, saying, "Teacher, what brings you here?"
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao utter the word "teacher," confirming that he was indeed Xian Lin'er's disciple, Yan Shaozhe's vision went completely black, and he almost couldn't catch his breath.
His face was grim. He pointed at Xian Lin'er, then at Huo Yuhao, his voice trembling slightly: "You? Teacher?"
Seeing Yan Shaozhe's astonished expression, Xian Lin'er felt a strange sense of pleasure and a smug smile appeared on her face: "What's wrong? Yuhao is my newly accepted disciple from yesterday. Why does Dean Yan seem so puzzled?"
Xian Lin'er's gaze swept over the items on the table, and her eyes lit up. Without any hesitation, she stepped forward, picked up the bottle of pills and the leather pouch containing the soul bone, and stuffed them directly into Huo Yuhao's hands.
"Yan Shaozhe, I remember this should be compensation from the academy to Yuhao, right? Then I'll thank the academy on behalf of my Yuhao. As for the rest, you don't need to worry about it, Dean of the Martial Soul Department."
Previously, if Xian Lin'er hadn't happened to be in the inner courtyard's office and discovered the information that Yan Shaozhe had registered for Huo Yuhao's inner courtyard identity, it would have been a huge mistake.
She hadn't even realized that the genius with the ultimate ice martial soul mentioned at the Sea God Pavilion meeting that morning was actually her disciple.
I almost lost my partner to that old guy Yan Shaozhe.
Thinking of this, Xian Lin'er's eyes sparkled, and she looked at Huo Yuhao with increasing satisfaction. At the same time, she made up her mind to "interrogate" Huo Yuhao properly later to see if he was hiding anything else.
With that thought in mind, Xian Lin'er stopped lingering, grabbed Huo Yuhao, and walked out of the Dean of the Martial Soul Department's office with her head held high.
Tu Liu Shaozhe stood in the office, bewildered by the wind.
He stared at the lone inner court badge on the table, his face darkening, and abruptly stood up.
No, he must convene another meeting of the Sea God Pavilion immediately.
Can the Soul Guidance Department teach Huo Yuhao well?
……
After these few days of ups and downs, Huo Yuhao's life at Shrek Academy has finally settled down.
As for the final outcome of the second Sea God Pavilion meeting, Huo Yuhao didn't know everything, but he did know that he now actually held two inner court student badges.
Wang Dong'er, who had been clamoring to duel with him, became much quieter after being cleanly and decisively defeated by Huo Yuhao in a physical fitness class sparring match.
However, every time Xiao Xiao dragged her to find Huo Yuhao, she would always have a cold face and awkwardly avoid him with her eyes.
I heard that they have now formed an anti-Huo Yuhao alliance with Wu Feng. The president is Wang Dong'er, the vice president is Wu Feng, and the only member so far is Xiao Xiao, who was forcibly pulled in by Wang Dong'er.
When he heard Ning Tian recount this story, Huo Yuhao was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and chuckled.
He found it hard to understand their childish, vengeful mentality.
The course schedule for Shrek's new students wasn't particularly demanding, but because of the new student assessment three months later, there was still an invisible sense of urgency among them.
However, compared to Class 1, which was frequently disrupted by reports of students being expelled, the atmosphere in the other classes was generally harmonious.
Huo Yuhao's daily routine became more regular. He attended classes in the teaching building every day, took Ning Tian to study in the Soul Guidance Department after class, and finally returned to his own pavilion in the inner courtyard. Occasionally, he would listen to Xian Lin'er's daily "complaints".
Even he had no idea that the Valkyrie, who appeared so valiant in public, actually faced unimaginable pressure every day.
Therefore, as his disciple, he thoughtfully and unintentionally gave Xian Lin'er some ideas about group-standard soul tools, allowing her to spend a lot of time in the soul tool laboratory afterward.
Before he knew it, it had been seven days since Huo Yuhao arrived at Shrek Academy.
At Shrek Academy, there is a one-day holiday every six days, which allows students to use their free time to relax.
At this moment, wisps of smoke were rising from a secluded meadow beside Poseidon Lake.
Two simple barbecue grills were set up in the area, and two small square tables were placed in front of them.
Ning Tian, Wang Dong'er, and Xiao Xiao were sitting around a small square table.
Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya sat at another table.
Everyone stared longingly at the skewers in Huo Yuhao's hands. As Huo Yuhao skillfully brushed on the secret sauce, the aroma that was released made the girls present unable to help but secretly swallow their saliva.
"Wu Feng, no, if you grill it like that, the heat is too high, it will burn very quickly."
Huo Yuhao flipped the meat skewers in his hand, reminding Wu Feng, who was standing in front of another barbecue grill.
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Wu Feng's expression stiffened, and the flames he had unleashed with his first soul skill surged even more, completely turning the skewer of roasted meat into charcoal.
"Huo Yuhao, did you do this on purpose?" Wu Feng looked at the charred skewers in front of him with tears in his eyes, then turned to glare fiercely at Huo Yuhao.
"Wu Feng, didn't you pat your chest and say you were really good at grilling?" Huo Yuhao teased, looking at Wu Feng's embarrassed expression, while his hands continued to work.
"I've only just shared some of the ingredients with you. If you don't cook them well, Ning Tian might go hungry today."
"Of course I'm good at grilling!" Wu Feng continued stubbornly, though his cheeks were burning. "My martial soul is a red dragon, so playing with fire is a piece of cake for me, isn't it?"
Before today, she had never tried barbecuing.
Her fighting style is all about powerful, intense fire; she has hardly ever tried to manipulate the output of flames with such precision.
