Chapter 29 Freshman Assessment
A few days later, after several days of tiring journey by boat and car, the three of them finally arrived at the famous Shrek City.

The city stands majestically on the vast plain, and its tall city walls wind to the left and right like a giant dragon. It is magnificent and covers a vast area that is breathtaking.

Shrek Academy, the holy land of the soul master world, is located in the east of Shrek City, facing the mysterious Star Forest in the distance.

Seen from a distance, the academy's buildings are arranged in an orderly manner, revealing an extraordinary aura in their simplicity and elegance, attracting countless soul master students. Almost every student who thinks that they have sufficient talent and soul power level will always choose this academy that stands at the top of the soul master world as their first choice.

"Xiaoyuan, Yuqian, if you can't successfully enroll in school, then let's find a quiet place in the countryside, buy a cozy little house, get away from the hustle and bustle, and live a good life. In this world, you don't have to be outstanding. Sometimes, safety and health are the most precious. The world of soul masters is too dangerous, and the casualty rate is not low."

Huo Yun'er looked at the two children in front of her who were about to embark on the path of becoming soul masters and spoke earnestly. Her words were filled with deep care and worry, as if she had already foreseen the unknown difficulties and obstacles ahead.

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuzhan's face lit up with a confident smile. She raised her head and faced the rising sun. The golden morning light cast a golden glow on her face, making her look like a holy angel. "Mom, don't worry. Brother You and I are both very capable. We will definitely be able to enroll successfully. Besides, we are not afraid of any dangers in the future."

"Okay, let's go into the city first." Huo Yun'er heard this, and although she felt reluctant and worried in her heart, she still nodded with a smile.

She knew that her children had grown up and had their own dreams and pursuits. As a mother, all she could do was to silently support and bless them.

This time of year is the busiest time in Shrek City. Soul masters from all over the world flock to this city, striving hard to enter Shrek Academy. The streets are bustling with people and traffic.

The group drove the carriage through the majestic north city gate and slowly moved forward along the crowded streets. They began to ask around for suitable accommodation. If Huo Yuzhe and Lin You could successfully enroll, they could naturally live in the college dormitory.

But Huo Yun'er couldn't be left alone on the street, so they needed to find a temporary place to stay first. Moreover, they had more than 700 gold soul coins on them, which was definitely a huge sum of money for ordinary people. Even in Shrek City with extremely high prices, they had a certain amount of spending power.

After searching and asking for a while, they finally found a rather elegant courtyard in a quiet alley.

Although the courtyard is not big, it has a reasonable layout. It is full of various flowers and plants. The air is filled with a faint floral fragrance, which is refreshing. The house has two bedrooms and a living room, which is just right for three people.

The most important thing is that this place is not too far from the North City Gate. An ordinary person can reach the North City Gate in half an hour's walk. If a soul master goes at full speed, half a quarter of an hour is enough. Then, go around Shrek City to the East City Gate and enter Shrek Academy. It is both convenient and quiet.

The landlord was a kind and amiable old lady. When she saw Huo Yun'er was with two children, she became more caring and offered very affordable rent, a total of twenty gold soul coins a year, which was one month's rent in lieu. She also enthusiastically helped them clean the room and introduced the surrounding living environment, such as the vegetable market and garbage station.

The old lady said that her children are ordinary people who work in the Chamber of Commerce. She would be lonely at home alone. She is very happy to have a family of three like them renting here.

After settling in, Huo Yun'er began to get busy. She planned to prepare some daily clothes and supplies for the children before they started school. After asking about the location of the cloth shop, she planned to cut a few feet of cloth to make clothes, but was immediately stopped by Lin You: "The college has school uniforms. If you ask me, we should buy you two more clothes later. It's January now and it's very cold." "Yes, mother, you can't treat yourself badly. When brother You and I start school, we will come to see you often!" Huo Yuzhe agreed with Lin You's statement quite seriously. She worked hard to become stronger so that her mother could live a better life, that's all. She didn't want to see her mother working hard for her anymore.

"Let's go, Yuzhen, go to the freshman assessment first, and then come back. Aunt Huo, we're leaving first!"

"Be careful." Huo Yun'er responded and watched Lin You and Huo Yuzhi gradually go away.

After an hour, the two finally walked through the East City Gate, passed through the bustling crowd from the side, and entered the legendary Shrek Academy.

After walking about two hundred meters forward, several huge statues blocked the view.

The appearance of the statues is very similar to the characters in the animation. Even without being introduced, Lin You recognized who these people were. They were none other than the Golden Triangle and the Shrek Seven Devils.

From time to time, a few freshmen would pass by and stand in front of the statues with envy and longing on their faces. If a senior student passed by, he would enthusiastically introduce the origins of these ten statues to the freshmen and give them some scientific knowledge.

After some inquiries, the two arrived at the assessment area in a short while.

"You two are here to take the test, right? Please let me have a look at your recommendation letters. Thank you."

The person in charge of the first round of assessment was a handsome young man who looked quite young. Judging from his aura, he was definitely a senior. However, when facing the two freshmen, Lin Yuan and Huo Yuzhen, he did not have the arrogant demeanor of a senior at all. Instead, he spoke in a gentle and polite manner.

"Well, you've passed the Soul Power Seal. It's from Xingyao City. I've recorded it for you. The letter of recommendation will serve as your ID throughout your academic career. If you fail the freshman assessment, it will be returned to you. Next, please touch this crystal ball. It will test your Soul Power and bone age."

Compared to Huo Yuzhe's level 18 spirit power, the young man's expression remained calm. However, when he saw Lin Yu's level spirit power, which had just passed the test, he frowned slightly and kindly advised, "My dear classmate, although it may be a bit discouraging to tell you the truth, I sincerely suggest that you choose a different academy. You may not know that the minimum requirement for promotion from first grade to second grade is to reach the level of a second-ring Great Spirit Master."

"Given your current bone age of eleven and your level fifteen soul power, your innate soul power should be around level three or four, right? According to normal cultivation progress, a year would only be enough for you to reach level eighteen. This is already an extremely fast speed when you are focused. With your innate soul power, you are completely unable to meet the standard for promotion. If my words have any impact on you, I apologize in advance. Are you sure you want to continue taking the assessment? There will be actual combat next."

"Thank you, senior, but I want to give it a try. I'm not good at giving up." Lin You smiled helplessly. The threshold for admission to Shrek Academy is quite high. He just barely made it. He remembered that the requirements before were even higher. At the age of twelve, one had to have at least level 20 soul power, two hundred-year soul rings and practical combat experience. If he were in the first generation of Shrek Academy, he would have no chance at all.

The young man did not make things difficult for the two of them. He immediately agreed and asked a teacher to take them to the beast fighting area for a freshman assessment test.
