Douluo Dalu: Start with a Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgement

Chapter 80 Core Disciple
Du Weilun opened the folder in his hand and read: "Based on the performance of the freshmen in the assessment, the core disciples who finally passed the review are: Ji Lin, Wang Qiuer, Wang Donger, Xiaoxiao, Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, Zhou Sichen, Cao Jinxuan, Lan Susu, Lan Luoluo, Ning Tian, ​​Wu Feng, Xie Huanyue."

When Du Weilun talked about the core disciples, Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao were a little excited. They were a champion team, and a core disciple would definitely not escape.

But when Du Weilun finished reading the list and Huo Yuhao's name was not on it, Huo Yuhao was stunned. In an instant, he felt as if something in his heart was drained away, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Since the day he entered Shrek Academy, he has put in all his efforts, practicing hard every day and striving to improve. When others are resting, he is practicing. When others are lazy, he is still practicing. After the freshman assessment began, he tried his best to cooperate with Xiaoxiao to defeat many opponents. In the end, he won the highest honor of the freshmen, but why, why am I not among the core disciples? Why is this?
Huo Yuhao appeared calm on the surface, but he had a dark side in his heart that ordinary people did not have. The darkness that had been accumulating since childhood almost broke out when he saw Dai Huabin, but was later suppressed by his reason. But at this moment, he felt like he could no longer hold back. Why, why did you do this to me?

Ji Lin frowned, his sharp mental power detected something. He reached out and grabbed Huo Yuhao's shoulder, worried that Huo Yuhao would lose control and do something irrational.

Xiaoxiao also felt something strange about Huo Yuhao beside her, and looked worried. Even her joy of becoming a core disciple disappeared. She is such a kind girl.

Huo Yuhao was the only one in the championship team who failed to become a core disciple. How would the others see it? How much pressure would Huo Yuhao be under?

Thinking of this, Xiaoxiao no longer felt the joy she had before.

Du Weilun continued, "In view of the fact that some freshmen, although lacking in talent and ability, have also performed well in the freshman assessment, the academy has decided to temporarily allow them to enjoy the treatment of core disciples until the end of this school year. If they can make breakthroughs in the upgrade exam next year, they will be considered for promotion to formal core disciples. The list is as follows: Huo Yuhao, Cui Yajie, Huang Chutian, Long Xiangyue, and Nanmen Yuner. This is the announcement."

In the square of Shrek Academy, the atmosphere was tense and solemn. Du Weilun stood on the podium, his voice echoing in the empty square, and every word was particularly clear. He announced the list of core members, and each name represented an honor and responsibility.

When he read Huo Yuhao's name, there was a hint of regret in his tone.

Huo Yuhao, this young boy, had a look of determination and perseverance in his eyes. He was a member of the championship team, and his efforts and hard work were seen by the teachers. However, when the list of core disciples was announced, his name was not on it.

He is just a quasi-core disciple.

Disappointment weighed on Huo Yuhao's heart like a huge rock. He had thought that his efforts would be rewarded, that he would become a core disciple, and receive more advanced training with other outstanding students to explore the mysteries of martial arts together. But reality dealt him a heavy blow.

Huo Yuhao's eyes were a little empty, and the resentment in his heart gradually subsided. Yes! I am lacking in ability. Among the people announced by Director Du Weilun, I am the only one with a cultivation level of less than 20. The treatment of a core disciple, what a treatment of a core disciple! A trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. Slowly lowering his head, Huo Yuhao buried the sadness deep in his heart.

If I wasn't a member of the championship team, I probably wouldn't even have a spot as a quasi-core disciple.

But who can I blame? I can only blame myself for not being strong enough.

A hint of self-mockery appeared at the corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth. When he raised his head again, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Xiaoxiao looked at Huo Yuhao worriedly and asked, “Huo Yuhao, are you okay?” Huo Yuhao shook his head bitterly, forced a smile, and said, “I’m fine. I don’t have the qualifications to become a core disciple. I’m just a level 15 soul master.”

“Hey!” Ji Lin sighed, patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder, and said: “Yuhao, if it really doesn’t work out, then transfer to the Soul Guidance Department. You have a good talent in soul guidance devices, and becoming a soul guide is not much worse than a soul master. They just have their own advantages and disadvantages. You can also go to see Teacher Wang Yan. I can see that he values ​​you very much and he will help you.”

Xiaoxiao also nodded repeatedly.

Huo Yuhao’s smile became a little more natural. “I’m really fine. Didn’t Director Du say that I can also enjoy the treatment of a core disciple? This is already very good. I will continue to work hard. Maybe when the upgrade assessment comes, I can become a formal core disciple.”

Seeing that Huo Yuhao still didn't give up, Ji Lin didn't say anything more. This was Huo Yuhao's own choice, and no matter how hard or difficult it was, it had nothing to do with him.

As a friend and roommate, he said everything he needed to say.

Huo Yuhao appears calm and mild-tempered, but in fact, he is a very strong-willed person, hiding his stubbornness and indomitable spirit in his heart.

No one can help him. If he wants to get through this hurdle in his heart, he must rely on himself.

Failing to become a core disciple this time was indeed a big blow to Huo Yuhao, but it was not enough to defeat a person with hatred and strong will.

The next step is to divide the classes. The entire first grade is divided into four classes. The first class is the powerful attack and control system battle soul masters. The second class is the defense system and agility attack system battle soul masters. The third class is the auxiliary system battle soul masters. The fourth class is the auxiliary system battle soul masters. Classes are battle soul masters and weapon soul masters with various other special attributes including food system and healing system.

Undoubtedly, Class 1 has the strongest overall strength. Most of the core disciples such as Ji Lin, Wang Qiuer, Wang Donger, Xiaoxiao, Dai Huabin, Wu Feng, etc. are in Class 1.

Among the others, Xie Huanyue from Class 2 and Ning Tian from Class 3 are the most outstanding.

Almost every grade is divided into classes in this way, but the higher the grade, the smaller the number of students in each class. The elimination rate of Shrek Academy has always been extremely high. Even among the students who can successfully graduate from the external college, no more than 50 people each year. In other words, among the more than 300 students now, it would be great if 20% can make it to the end.

Next came the introduction of the head teachers of each class. As expected by Ji Lin, the head teachers of Class 1 were Wang Yan and Zhou Yi. Wang Yan, as a senior teacher, served as the head teacher, while Zhou Yi served as the deputy head teacher.

Seeing that the two class teachers were Wang Yan and Zhou Yi, who always took good care of Huo Yuhao, Huo Yuhao finally felt a little better.
