And I am not someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately; killing is simply my purest nature...

The next day, almost no one came to talk to him. Of the more than one hundred students in the class, apart from the few who were expelled for cheating, there were more than ninety left. Without exception, a very large portion of them kept their distance from him as much as possible.

Clearly, their previous actions undoubtedly demonstrated their strength, or perhaps they realized that this person was not someone to be trifled with.

Some female classmates would only steal a glance, feeling a mixture of liking and fear.

What surprised Shen Yumo was Huo Yuhao. Whenever their eyes met unintentionally, Huo Yuhao would hurriedly look away, as if he had discovered something bad.

However, it also brought her some peace and quiet. Shen Yumo wasn't a child and didn't like those kinds of people. Most of the time, she preferred to sit alone in her seat, lost in thought from time to time.

Another strange thing is that Zhou Yi didn't ask him what his martial soul was. That's normal. What normal teacher could sit there calmly and watch their student with interest after witnessing an extraordinary ability?

Logically speaking, she's a Soul Emperor, so how could she not know what a Soul Venerable was doing at a distance of only a dozen meters? Even if she didn't know, wouldn't she be curious?

Tyrone went straight home. Having seen Tyrone's condition, it was clearly his own doing. He couldn't help but believe the other person wasn't curious...

However, it was a rare treat that brought me some pleasant moments.

Over the course of the day, Teacher Zhou talked a lot about soul tools and told the students that there is basically no longer any allocation of offensive, defensive, and agility-type soul masters; it can be said that the distinction is extremely vague.

With the intervention of the soul tool, even a student with a food-type martial soul can perform like a power-attack type soul master.

Shen Yumo defines herself as an assassin! Right, there's no such thing as an assassin-type Soul Master in this world, so let's just call her an agility-attack type Soul Master for now. Her greatest advantage is speed!

This speed is terrifying. With the added speed from the two leg bones at the Soul Venerable level, it's comparable to that of an ordinary Soul Emperor! He offended a Soul Emperor as soon as he left the far north, and he only managed to escape by running away with all his might.

Shen Yumo didn't believe that the crazy old man had let her go on purpose. He had risked his life to chase after her, but what happened? He still hadn't caught up with her.

This perfectly reflects just how fast he is!

In addition, the Demon Blade Thousand Blades possesses unique attributes, making it both offensive and defensive. The three hundred fragments it currently controls are like three hundred deadly fragments, each a deadly treasure and hidden weapon, making it incredibly lethal.

Often, before the opponent can even react, their demonic blade is already pressed against their neck, giving them a death stare before finally ending their sinful life.

Shen Yumo felt that the Demon Blade Thousand Blades was the most special thing! He was confident of that.

The Demon Blade Thousand Blades is inherently very fragile, but in my hands it's not exactly a useless stick. The blade is made up of a thousand fragments, which can split at will. With this, I can make use of many things.

The fragments become useful when the opponent is off guard; their sharp blades can be reassembled at any time to deliver a stealthy and fatal blow.

After finishing the theoretical class in the morning, Shen Yumo clearly benefited greatly. Her wisdom was improving, and more incredible things were being realized and practiced by her predecessors, gradually promoting the development of mankind.

It's obvious that in Tang San's era, there were no soul tools, so his hidden weapons became famous, and he even founded the Tang Sect. Although I didn't witness that glorious scene, it's enough to imagine the peak of the Tang Sect.

The Tang Clan rose and fell because of this very thing; they neither understood nor were willing to adapt and integrate, which is why they were eliminated by the times.

In the era that Shen Yumo lives in now, there is a big problem: the number of humans is increasing while the number of soul beasts is decreasing. Humans are about to face an environment where there are no more soul beasts to obtain. What will this situation give rise to?

The Soul Tower not only solved the immediate crisis but also promoted the progress of the times. It's more accurate to say that it was created by the times rather than established by Huo Yuhao. Its existence is justified, because unreasonable things have long been eliminated.

The same applies to our work; we must learn to integrate different approaches and be flexible in our responses so that we can thrive in the face of life's challenges.

……

Shen Yumo thought a lot in the morning. She thought about her martial soul, clarified her current strength, and also thought about soul tools. If there is a suitable one, she will make one.

I also thought about how people can get along better, and how to make full use of everything available to avoid waste...

You're no exception, are you, Huo Yuhao?

Chapter 42 I got scammed

As usual, the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class, and Teacher Zhou paused in his speech, looking at each new student. Every student's face was filled with a fulfilling smile.

To achieve such results on the very first day, Teacher Zhou really has some skills.

With a crisp and decisive voice, "get out of class dismissed!" Zhou Yi's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and her gaze towards the students softened.

His gaze swept over the blue and white figure at the back of the seat, his expression complicated for a moment before he looked away, his eyes finally settling on Huo Yuhao sitting in the front row.

After spending a day together, everyone realized that Teacher Zhou was a man of his word, particularly strict in discipline, yet also meticulous and attentive to each student. Therefore, everyone began to respect this strict Teacher Zhou.

If Teacher Zhou hadn't said that everyone could leave, they would have remained seated, afraid to move, lest they face some kind of punishment if they left.

Teacher Zhou pondered for a moment, then a rare smile appeared on her lips. "Everyone can go now. Huo Yuhao, come with me for a moment." She decided to take Huo Yuhao to the Martial Soul Department; perhaps he would gain something from it.

"Okay, Teacher Zhou," Huo Yuhao quickly replied.

As Zhou Yi spoke, she turned around and was about to leave, but when she reached the classroom door, she found that Huo Yuhao had not followed her.

She stood unhappily at the door, only to find Huo Yuhao standing there like a statue, his youthful face showing hesitation, worry, and unease. A series of images flashed through his eyes.

Everyone's approval rating for him is really high! So high that Huo Yuhao was flattered. Everyone uses their soul power to maintain their body and endurance when running in the Iron Armor, but he is just a soul master with a ten-year soul ring, possibly the weakest soul master in the entire Shrek Academy.

Yet this very person, relying on unwavering willpower, ran lap after lap in his iron armor. Huo Yuhao told himself over and over again, "I can't fall! I absolutely can't fall!"

While others collapsed from exhaustion, he persevered; while others lay there resting, he continued running, leading everyone to finish the lap. Rather than saying he led, it would be more accurate to say that his spirit inspired everyone.

Therefore, Teacher Zhou relieved Wang Dong of his position as class monitor and gave the position to himself. When Wang Dong was flattered, he caught a glimpse of that indifferent blue gaze out of the corner of his eye.

His pupils contracted, and his whole body stiffened. He was just a first-ring Soul Master; what qualifications did he have to be the class monitor? Moreover, in this world where the strong are respected, everyone speaks based on their own strength. Therefore, he thought that the class monitor position was more suitable for that person.

"What are you thinking about?" Teacher Zhou stood there, looking at Huo Yuhao with some doubt. He had obviously seen Huo Yuhao's expression.

The surrounding classmates also looked at Huo Yuhao. In just one day, everyone had developed a sense of honor for the class, but they themselves did not realize it. What surprised them was the way Huo Yuhao ran while wearing the iron suit.

Huo Yuhao suddenly seemed to have a sudden realization, a happy and relieved smile spreading across his face. He chuckled foolishly, looked at Teacher Zhou, and said, "Teacher Zhou, I don't think I'm suitable to be the class monitor. I'm the weakest. Even if everyone acknowledges me, I'll never be able to compete in terms of strength. So I hope Teacher Zhou can find a stronger student to be the class monitor..."

As Huo Yuhao spoke, Zhou Yi frowned again. Indeed, Huo Yuhao was right. Although his image in the eyes of his classmates had changed, his strength was still undeniable, and it was inevitable that others would gossip behind his back, saying that his class had no one else...

However, Huo Yuhao's words were truly unexpected...

"Well... alright... which student do you think is suitable to be class monitor?" Teacher Zhou pondered for a moment and asked indifferently.

"Teacher." Huo Yuhao's expression immediately turned serious, his eyes glancing frequently at the blue-haired boy on his side. "Teacher, I think Shen is capable of being the class monitor!"

These words immediately elicited a murmur of surprise from the class, followed by quiet discussions.

"Oh?" Zhou Yi stared at Huo Yuhao with a slight smile, wondering what Huo Yuhao was up to. At the same time, she was observing Shen Yumo's expression, but to her disappointment, it was also expected. He still had that indifferent look, his sky-blue eyes like a handful of clear water untouched by the dust of the world.

"I reserve my opinion. Since you don't want to be class monitor, I won't force you. You recommended Shen Yumo because you think he's very capable, which is understandable, but we still need to ask Shen Yumo what he thinks." Zhou Yi looked at Shen Yumo with a mischievous smile. The title of class monitor isn't fixed, and of course, it's ultimately up to her.

Why not let Shen Yumo give it a try?

Huo Yuhao's unwavering determination and indomitable spirit left a deep impression on every classmate, who therefore held him in high esteem.

Now that Huo Yuhao brought it up, most people felt a chill. The impression that blue-haired boy left on them was still too deep. To be honest, he wasn't as easy to talk to as Huo Yuhao. Everyone knew that if that boy became the class monitor, he would be the only one who could be controlled, and no one would dare to do that. Tai Long's example was not to be trifled with.

At this moment, Shen Yumo couldn't help but speak in classical Chinese style. To be honest, he really couldn't handle this task. He liked peace and quiet and disliked any constraints or shackles. Although the position of class monitor was just a nominal title with no real power, it was still a constraint in his eyes.

Perhaps for someone like me, only killing and tranquility constitute a life that truly belongs to me.

At the same time, he was cursing Huo Yuhao in his heart: "You little brat, you dare to harm me, just you wait!"

He immediately met the gazes of the entire class and said in a low voice, "I am not suitable to be the class monitor. I still think Huo Yuhao is more suitable. The class monitor is a role model. Huo Yuhao's performance has set a good example for everyone and also proved that he has the ability. Therefore, I refuse to be the class monitor."

Upon hearing this, most people felt a sense of relief, and suddenly even the ice cube seemed quite humane.

"Oh, in that case, let's have Huo Yuhao be the class monitor. It's decided then! Huo Yuhao, come out with me for a moment!" Zhou Yi didn't waste any time and left Huo Yuhao without giving him a chance to speak. She then walked out of the classroom.

Although Huo Yuhao was somewhat disappointed, he quickly regained his confidence and walked out the door.

Perhaps it's because everyone agrees that I feel really secure, and even Brother Shen thinks I have the makings of a class monitor. So, I must live up to Brother Shen's good intentions!

If Shen Yumo knew what was on his mind, he would think: "Damn it, you're just being presumptuous! What do we have to do with each other?!"

Chapter 43 The Shy Girl Xiao Xiao

If Shen Yumo knew what was on his mind, he would think: "Damn it, you're just being presumptuous! What do we have to do with each other?!"

After the two left, the class finally came alive with lively chatter, everyone talking at once.

"Ugh, I'm exhausted! That iron suit this afternoon was so heavy!"

"Hey, how do you guys think Huo Yuhao managed to persevere?"

"Although they are weak, they have perseverance. Unlike some people, they fall down while running and can never get up again."

Snatch the bamboo shoots!

"Who are you talking about! Damn it, who are you talking about..."

Although they only spent a short day together, the distance between them was shortened considerably. The only one who didn't fit in sat there with an indifferent expression, completely lacking the naivety and innocence that a young person should have.

A person who seems aloof, prefers to be alone, and often sits in a daze, remaining silent except for the occasional smile.

I think that person must have many stories. Sometimes we might as well calm down, put down our phones and stay quiet for a while. When our hearts are as still as water, we will understand many things.

Unpleasant things are like a light drizzle; we should learn to forget them, forget the unhappy things, and look at and deal with the present situation from the right perspective. Life is like fleeting shadows, and time is fair. As time goes by, we will understand many things and then we will be at peace.

……

"Um, hello, my name is Xiao Xiao..."

Just as Shen Yumo was lost in thought, a sweet, shy girl's voice rang out, as pleasant as a spring breeze.

Shen Yumo snapped out of her thoughts and turned around. A girl was standing next to her table, her face flushed, her eyes shining like obsidian. She was short, with her hair tied in a ponytail, and her gaze was filled with shyness and timidity.

Xiao Xiao… Shen Yumo silently repeated the name in his mind, and he remembered who it was.

He rarely showed a polite smile. "Xiao Xiao, the name comes from the bleak spring breeze. It's a very nice name. My name is Shen Yumo, and I'm just an ordinary boy."

His words revealed an inexplicable fondness; the boy's voice was very pleasant, and his sky-blue eyes were like dazzling sapphires. Xiao Xiao couldn't help but blush, and she didn't know where to put her small hands.

"Xiao Xiao, is there something you need?" Shen Yumo asked.

"Ah! No, no, I just wanted to get to know you." Xiao Xiao quickly waved her hand, her eyes shyly avoiding eye contact with those big blue eyes.

The charm of the girl next door is on full display.

The boy smiled with relief. It was rare for someone like him to have people come up to him; most people in the class would probably avoid him like the plague. He wondered what this little girl was thinking.

Shen Yumo looked at her; the girl gently pursed her lips, eagerly awaiting the boy's answer.

"We've been friends since we were in the same class, and I'm very happy to meet you and be your classmate."

"Okay, okay." Xiao Xiao quickly responded twice. They were classmates, of course, but she felt this boy was very special. He didn't seem to have the mindset of an eleven or twelve-year-old at all. Talking to him felt like talking to a kind older brother? It was a little strange…

"Then, Shen, why...why didn't you become the class monitor? Teacher Zhou actually really wanted you to be the class monitor. I don't mean to say that Huo Yuhao is bad, I'm just curious why you refused." Xiao Xiao's rosy cheeks became even more shy and delicate. She blinked her curious big eyes and sat down in the seat in front of Shen Yumo as if she were old friends.

Two beautiful, dark eyes stared intently at the boy.
