Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, have a Beast Taming Space

Chapter 21 Waaaaah, why am I not in Class 9?

Today's lesson will continue to combine theoretical instruction with practical training.

When Huo Yuhao walked into the classroom of Class 9, the previously noisy classroom fell silent for a moment, and then burst into heated discussion.

Many students immediately gathered around, their faces filled with excitement and admiration.

"Brother Hao! He's here!"

"Hao-ge is awesome! He beat up Xu Sanshi, one of the twin stars of the Foreign Languages ​​Department, on the first day of school!"

"Brother Hao, your Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is so cool! Can you summon it to take a look?"

"Brother Hao, you'll have to look out for us at the academy from now on!"

Most people were there to flatter and curry favor, since Huo Yuhao's strength had far exceeded that of a freshman. His ability to fight and defeat renowned senior experts was enough to earn their respect.

Huo Yuhao wore a gentle smile and did not become arrogant despite the sudden adulation, responding to each person's praise.

"Just luck."

His calm and composed attitude won the favor of many classmates.

Just then, a pleasant voice rang out.

"Hello, Huo Yuhao."

The crowd parted, and a young girl walked over.

She has neat short blonde hair, fair skin, and a beautiful face. Although she is still young, you can already see the shadow of a future beauty. What is even more rare is the calm and noble temperament she exudes.

It was Ning Tian, ​​the young master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"My name is Ning Tian."

Ning Tian smiled and extended his hand.

"It's a pleasure to meet you; your abilities are amazing."

Huo Yuhao looked at the girl in front of him who had once had feelings for him in the original work. He didn't feel much, but out of politeness, he still reached out and shook her hand lightly: "Hello, Ning Tian, ​​you flatter me."

Their hands were separated as soon as they touched.

Ning Tian seemed very interested in Huo Yuhao and continued, "Your martial soul is very special. It's a summoning type I've never seen before, and it summons a top-tier soul beast like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. I wonder..."

Before she could finish speaking, a fiery red figure rushed over from the side like a lit firecracker, accompanied by a disgruntled shout.

"Hey! Huo Yuhao! Get away from Ning Tian! I..."

It was Wu Feng who rushed over. Like a mother hen protecting her chicks, she stood in front of Ning Tian, ​​glaring angrily at Huo Yuhao, her short red hair almost standing on end.

"Fengmei!"

Ning Tian frowned slightly and gently stopped her.

"No rudeness."

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng, though still glaring angrily at Huo Yuhao, obediently shut his mouth, though his eyes seemed to want to poke two holes in Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao found Wu Feng's appearance somewhat amusing.

"Little Tyrannosaurus Rex, it has quite a temper."

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng instantly bristled, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "What did you say?! Who are you calling a little tyrannosaurus rex?!"

She was already unhappy about Huo Yuhao getting close to Ning Tian, ​​and now that she was being teased to his face, she couldn't hold back anymore. Without thinking, she threw a punch straight at Huo Yuhao's face!

A gasp of surprise rang out from the crowd.

However, Huo Yuhao simply raised his hand and easily grabbed Wu Feng's wrist. The seemingly fierce punch seemed as light as nothing in his hand and could not advance even an inch.

Wu Feng struggled a few times, but found that Huo Yuhao's hand was as firm as an iron clamp and she couldn't budge it at all. She couldn't help but show a look of astonishment on her face.

What surprised her and everyone around her even more was that Huo Yuhao not only didn't let go, but instead used the fingers of his other hand to gently pinch Wu Feng's puffed-up cheek. The movement was so fast that Wu Feng didn't even have time to react. "So violent, be careful you won't be able to get married in the future."

Huo Yuhao said with a smile.

"You...you bastard!"

Wu Feng suddenly snapped back to her senses, feeling the lingering touch on her cheek. Her face instantly turned bright red. She abruptly pulled her hand back, pointed at Huo Yuhao, and stammered for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence. Finally, she stomped her foot hard and hid behind Ning Tian, ​​only revealing a pair of fiery eyes that glared at Huo Yuhao.

The surrounding students were stunned, and then burst into suppressed laughter.

Huo Yuhao is probably the only one who dares to tease and "take action" against Wu Feng, who is known for his fiery temper.

Ning Tian watched this scene with a mix of amusement and exasperation, and said to Huo Yuhao, "I'm sorry, Feng Mei has a quick temper. I apologize to you on her behalf."

Huo Yuhao waved his hand dismissively: "It's nothing, just a joke."

After this commotion, the atmosphere in the classroom actually became even more lively.

After exchanging a few words with Ning Tian, ​​Huo Yuhao returned to his seat and waited for the class bell to ring.

The morning classes were quite simple, just ordinary theoretical lectures. Although Huo Yuhao wasn't particularly interested, he still listened attentively.

The time soon came to afternoon.

This afternoon is a practical training session.

In Huo Yuhao's view, the students in the class practiced sparring in pairs to improve their combat skills, which was a good course.

Well, it's much better than running.

Huo Yuhao and the others, standing in the middle of the playground, watched the Class 1 students running wildly on the track in their armored suits, speechless with disbelief.

I don't know whether to laugh or feel sorry for them.

Huo Yuhao spotted Wang Dong in the crowd at a glance.

There's no other reason than that she's the fastest runner.

She's probably on the verge of a breakdown right now.

Zhou Yi was constantly running, either regular running or running while wearing armor.

Then she looked at the center of the playground, where Huo Yuhao was waving at her.

Woohoo~
Why am I not in Class 9?

……

"Why hasn't Teacher Mu arrived yet?"

Huo Yuhao looked around and soon spotted Mu Jin at the edge of the playground.

However, Mu Jin was not alone at this moment; she was standing face to face with Zhou Yi.

Although they were some distance apart and the exact words couldn't be heard, judging from their tense postures and unyielding gazes, it was obvious they were exchanging insults.

Zhou Yi and Mu Jin have never gotten along; this conflict has a long history.

Part of the reason can be traced back to some old grudges from their youth, but more importantly, Mu Jin looked down on Zhou Yi's character and conduct.

In Mu Jin's view, Zhou Yi's method of expelling students who were temporarily not good enough in order to improve the class's pass rate was a crooked way and a desecration of the essence of education!
Moreover, in her opinion, Zhou Yi's teaching level was also terrible; apart from high pressure and corporal punishment, she hadn't seen any proper teaching methods.

The key issue is that people are incredibly arrogant, believing their own ideas to be so correct.

In addition, the two already had deep-seated grudges, to the point that they now loathe each other and can't help but bicker whenever they meet.

The current situation is relatively restrained; if the academy hadn't strictly prohibited teachers from fighting in private, these two would probably have already started fighting.
