Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 72 Fourth Soul Ring

The class bell rang, and Zhou Yi walked into the classroom on time. The old woman was also sharp-eyed and instantly saw Huo Yuhao, who had been missing for almost two months.

Seeing that Huo Yuhao was safe and sound, Zhou Yi just nodded slightly in acknowledgement before starting the class as usual.

Throughout the day, Huo Yuhao and Wang Qiu'er didn't exchange a single word, as if they didn't know each other at all.

Today, Wang Yan and Zhou Yi walked into the classroom at the same time. Zhou Yi directly found an empty seat and sat down, leaving everything to Wang Yan.

Looking up and scanning the room, Wang Yan found that the students today were all energetic, as if they had drunk a tonic soup. He couldn't see the usual dullness at all.

"Students, today is the last day of your first year. The academy hasn't arranged any tasks. I'll just say a few words, and then you can all go back and pack your things."

The students all showed joy upon hearing this. It had been eleven months, and they were all just twelve or thirteen-year-old children. Most of them hadn't been away from home for such a long time. They all had a feeling of wanting to return home immediately. However, due to Zhou Yi's presence, no one dared to make noise. Although the vacation was about to begin, if they made the old woman Zhou unhappy, she might really punish them before leaving. Zhou Yi was really like that.

"In this year, I have witnessed everyone's efforts and progress. You are the most outstanding class I have ever taught. Your efforts will bring common glory to our Class One."

Wang Yan spoke eloquently, but few students listened. Some were thinking about going home to their parents, siblings, and warm beds. Some were already at a bottleneck and were planning on obtaining what kind of soul ring. There was also a small group of people who were secretly complaining, 'It's just the same old platitudes, bullshit glory, just trying to fool people.' Of course, these people were deep in thought, sitting below with an indifferent look, making it impossible to see their true intentions.

"But."

Wang Yan paused for a moment, seeing that he had attracted everyone's attention before continuing, "Unlike other academies, our Shrek Academy doesn't have final exams. What determines whether you can advance to the second year next year is the test after the start of the next academic year. Therefore, during the next month's vacation, everyone must not slack off. Being able to sit in Class One, each of you is excellent. I will be waiting for you in the second-year classroom, and I hope you will all be present."

"Those who fail the test will be expelled."

At this moment, Zhou Yi said coldly.

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads, extinguishing the enthusiasm that had just been ignited in everyone's hearts.

Wang Yan couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Well, well, it's like we're playing the good cop, bad cop routine.

Coughing softly to ease the atmosphere, Wang Yan decided to finish speaking quickly and leave. "The content of the upgrade assessment is currently unknown to me and Teacher Zhou, but there is a rigid requirement for upgrading, which is that your cultivation must reach the level of a Great Soul Master. Note that it is a Great Soul Master with two soul rings. If you don't have a second soul ring, even if your soul power has reached level twenty, it won't work. So, if anyone hasn't obtained a second soul ring by the time school starts, then I suggest they don't come, because the academy's regulations won't change, and there has never been an exception before."

"What I have said above is about individual upgrades. Next, I will talk about class upgrades. Remember, you are a whole. Every student in the class is your companion. I believe you won't abandon your companions and move forward alone."

Tsk tsk, Teacher Wang's words are not to be agreed with. Some students thought secretly, expressing their disdain.

Huo Yuhao also had the same thought, but he still had to listen. Zhou Yi's requirement for allowing him to take leave from the academy to obtain a soul ring was for him to participate in the class upgrade competition.

"Class upgrade is actually also an assessment of the teaching abilities of me and Teacher Zhou. When conducting the class upgrade, you need to select three to seven students from our class to participate in a special assessment. The degree of completion of the assessment determines the degree of upgrade for our class. If you perfectly pass the assessment task, then our class can advance to the second year with 100% certainty. But if the degree of completion doesn't reach 100%, then the number of people will be reduced proportionally, which means that even if all of you pass the individual upgrade, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can all stay. Assuming the class upgrade degree is 80%, then among all the students who have passed the individual upgrade, the 20% of students with the lowest assessment scores will be eliminated."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the students below were a little unsightly. What were they doing here? Were they here to help others for fun?

Huo Yuhao also understood why Zhou Yi had specifically mentioned that requirement. If he hadn't agreed, she wouldn't have paid any attention to him. Anyway, as long as his individual upgrade score was high, nothing would happen. Whoever was eliminated could be eliminated. If it really didn't work, Huo Yuhao could be eliminated. Anyway, he didn't really care.

Wang Yan smiled slightly, seemingly gentle, but in fact, his tone contained a hint of coldness. "I think, if any of the students selected to participate in the class assessment makes a mistake, causing the evaluation to decrease, all the students in the class will remember him."

Wang Yan felt that he should be very majestic at this time, but he didn't know that these slightly threatening words had aroused the rebellious psychology of some students. Several people had already decided not to participate in any class upgrade. Anyway, their legs were on their bodies, and they could do whatever they wanted. They just wouldn't go. Most of these people were strong, and they, like Huo Yuhao, accurately captured the loopholes in it.

If Wang Yan's words were said by someone outside, it would be difficult to see the sun the next day. Those present were all geniuses among geniuses, and most of them had deep backgrounds. They really didn't care about a Soul King.

But Wang Yan was a teaching teacher at Shrek Academy, so he had the confidence to speak like this. To put it bluntly, it was a dog relying on its master's power.

"Okay, that's it, class dismissed, go back and pack your things."

After saying that, Wang Yan and Zhou Yi left.

After this commotion, everyone couldn't be happy anymore, and one by one, they left with a trace of melancholy.

"Perfect, it's been delayed for a month. It's time to go find the fourth soul ring."

Huo Yuhao thought to himself. His soul power had already broken through to level forty a month ago, but he had only delayed it until now because the vacation was coming soon.
