Douluo Continent: The Incarnation of a Divine Beast, Sister Huo Yutong!

Chapter 116 School starts

The next day.

As Huo Yuhao carried the sleepy little girl downstairs, he happened to meet Jiang's mother's mournful gaze.

She finally managed to buy a few QQ outfits while her daughter was away, intending to surprise Huo Yuhao, but somehow she ended up falling asleep last night!
Huo Yuhao could only smile awkwardly at this, and then took advantage of the little girl's inattention to comfort her for a while.

After being assured that she would find another opportunity to "treat" her, Jiang's mother finally smiled again.

Shrek Academy's freshman recruitment process lasts for a week, so over the next few days, Huo Yuhao took Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao to explore most of Shrek City.

They even entered some of Shrek Academy's private facilities, such as the Soul Guidance Assembly Factory and even the Golden Tree, without hesitation.

However, happy times are always short-lived, and today is the first day of formal classes for the new students.

Huo Yuhao got up early with Wang Dong'er. They first met up with Huo Yutong and Xiao Xiao, and then had a meal at Jiang Nannan's breakfast stall before leisurely making their way to the classroom.

When the four arrived at the classroom, they found it was already full of new students.

Huo Yuhao looked around but didn't see Zhu Lu and Dai Huabin, so he simply led the three girls toward the back of the classroom.

As the four walked, their outstanding appearance attracted frequent glances from the surrounding freshmen.

However, none of the students who get into Shrek Academy are idiots, so nothing particularly exciting or entertaining happened.

After finding a seat, Huo Yuhao crossed his legs and put his hands behind his head, a carefree posture that made Wang Dong'er blush.

We're all freshmen, why are you showing off so much?

Wang Dong'er nudged Huo Yuhao's arm, trying to get him to mind his image and pull his leg back, but instead heard Huo Yuhao laugh and say:

"Don't worry, I know the teacher in this class very well..."

Huo Yuhao emphasized the word "familiar" with particular emphasis, but unfortunately Wang Dong'er didn't notice.

She recalled how Huo Yuhao had led them through the academy without any hindrance these past few days, even greeting the academy leaders with a smile, and subconsciously believed what he said.

However, Wang Dong'er immediately became curious about Huo Yuhao's identity again.

Could this guy be the son of some dean?

That doesn't make sense. According to her information, although the four deans are married, they have never had children.

Just as Wang Dong'er was lost in thought, she noticed that the teacher hadn't arrived yet, and the freshmen around her started chatting among themselves:
"Have you heard? The homeroom teacher of Class One has a terrible temper..."

"I heard that she used to teach fourth grade, but because she expelled too many students, she was demoted to first grade..."

"Huh? There are teachers like that?"

"It's true. I heard that everyone in the academy calls her the monster teacher. The dropout rate of her students is higher than all the other teachers combined!"

The news, whether true or false, made the students in the classroom uneasy, even the freshmen who were confident in their abilities.

After all, according to these new students, that teacher is a madman who expels students at will and doesn't care about your identity at all!
Just then, someone walked into the classroom.

She was a stunningly beautiful, tall, mature woman with white hair and black eyes. She wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked very young. Her white robe could not hide her graceful figure.

She swept her gaze around with a cold look, and when she saw Huo Yuhao, she paused subconsciously, but quickly pretended not to care and ignored him.

The freshmen were stunned for a second, and then a sense of doubt arose in their hearts.

Is this beautiful teacher really the monster teacher who arbitrarily expels students?

Zhou Yi, in her high heels, walked slowly to the podium and said in a cool, clear voice:

"Hello everyone, my name is Zhou Yi, and I'm the homeroom teacher for Class 1 of the freshmen..."

"Over the next few months, I will be leading everyone's studies at Shrek Academy..."

Some freshmen looked puzzled, but those from slightly better-off families remained calm.

Xiao Xiao, standing next to Huo Yutong, asked curiously:
"Yutong, why did Teacher Zhou say she would teach us for several months?"

The little girl thought for a moment and replied, "There will be a freshman competition three months after the new students enroll..."

"After the freshman competition, students will be reassigned to classes based on their Soul Master type..."

After listening to the little girl's explanation, Xiao Xiao suddenly understood.

She was about to ask more questions when she suddenly felt a cold gaze.

Looking up, Xiao Xiao was horrified to find that Zhou Yi was staring intently at her, her eyes cold and devoid of any warmth.

In an instant, Xiao Xiao felt as if the sky had fallen.

Oh no... I'm going to be expelled!

Fortunately, Zhou Yi looked away after a while, which made Xiao Xiao breathe a sigh of relief.

She patted her small, flat chest, looking like she had just escaped a disaster, and dared not speak carelessly again.

After introducing herself, Zhou Yi's gaze inadvertently swept over Huo Yuhao. Receiving a nod from the latter, she spoke again:

"To prevent some new students from being unclear, let me explain first..."

Then, Zhou Yi recounted the events of the freshman competition.

Upon learning that only one-third of the more than 1,000 new students would remain, a sense of urgency immediately arose in the hearts of all the new students present.

Even the strongest freshmen are no exception, because Zhou Yi said that the freshman competition adopts a team format.

No matter how strong you are, can you take on three people at once?

No matter how strong you are, it's useless if your teammates are bad!

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Zhou Yi smiled slightly, feeling very satisfied.

Soon, everyone's attention was once again focused on Zhou Yi's face.

Zhou Yi spoke calmly:

"Everyone knows about the freshman competition, now I'll tell you my rules..."

"It's very simple, there's only one rule: my words are orders, so you must obey!"

"I can't guarantee that every one of you will stay, but I can guarantee..."

"With my training, your chances of passing are the highest!"

"Now, answer me, do you understand?"

"I understand..."

A soft, pattering response sounded, like a weak patient sobbing.

Zhou Yi smiled slightly and clapped her hands:
"Looks like everyone's still a bit sleepy..."

"Very well, everyone stand up!"

"Now, immediately, assemble on the playground!"

As she spoke, a faint red glow appeared in Zhou Yi's pupils, and a faint pressure instantly emanated from her.

How could the new students withstand the dragon's might at the level of a Soul Emperor?
Almost instantly, everyone stood up instinctively.

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and, without being the first to stand out, got up with the others.

Zhou Yi nodded in satisfaction and then walked out first.

And so, while the homeroom teachers in other classrooms were still kindly recounting the greatness of the college, the students of Class One had already marched in neat steps to the playground.
