"The format of the freshman assessment is very simple: actual combat. It will be conducted in groups of three. To ensure a balanced team configuration, each group can only have one offensive-type spirit master. When grouping, priority will be given to students from the same dormitory.

"I'll be giving you a more reasonable grouping plan based on your respective spirit characteristics and abilities later. Of course, this is just a recommendation. If anyone is dissatisfied with their grouping, you can raise an objection with me, but only this morning."

"There are nearly three hundred teams from our grade participating in this freshman assessment," Mu Jin said, her voice rising slightly with a hint of seriousness. "But only half of them will be able to stay. In other words, only the top one hundred and fifty teams will be able to continue to stay at Shrek Academy."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the classroom suddenly became tense.

"The order of the matches will be determined by drawing lots. Each group of students will fight at least ten matches and will be ranked based on their win points. The top sixty-four teams will enter the knockout stage to compete for the final ranking.

The academy will award different rewards to the top four teams in the knockout round. The rewards for the champion team will be even more generous, and it is not impossible to award soul bones.

Seeing the students in the audience being inspired by the academy's awards and full of fighting spirit, Mu Jin nodded with satisfaction.

As for the reward soul bones?

All I can say is that the academy hasn't given out such precious things in the freshman assessment for hundreds of years, but it's always good to be able to paint some hope for these students and inspire some motivation.

Mu Jin restrained her smile and continued, "Also, according to the regulations, each freshman class teacher can nominate one specially recruited student to directly pass the assessment and go to the Soul Guidance Department to study.

Last night, I also asked Gu Keke, a student who is suitable for the Soul Guidance Department, and she also expressed her willingness to join the Soul Guidance Department. Now, I will announce the specific groupings, everyone listen carefully."

Hearing this, everyone focused their attention.

"Group one: Huo Yuhao, Ning Tian, ​​and Wu Feng."

"The second group: Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Nanmen Yun'er."

"..."

"I have assigned these based on the characteristics and complementarity of your martial spirits. All classes for today are cancelled. If you have no problem with the grouping, you may leave now."

Mu Jin looked at the students in the audience and softened her tone. "The assessment will officially begin tomorrow, but I suggest you make the most of today to get to know each other's martial spirits and spirit skills, and be fully prepared for tomorrow's battle. I also hope that all the students in our freshman class nine will eventually advance."

"Okay, everyone, you can leave after handing in your registration forms. However, students from Groups 1 and 2, please stay for a moment."

Not long after, most of the students in Class 9 came forward one by one and handed the completed registration form to Mu Jin. Then they walked out of the classroom with their new teammates and began to discuss tomorrow's tactics.

Mu Jin was indeed very thoughtful. When grouping them, she even took into account their daily interpersonal relationships, which meant that basically no one raised any objections to the grouping.

Although many of them do want to team up with stronger people like Huo Yuhao, Ning Tian, ​​Wang Donger, etc., they also have to be looked up to by others. Having the current relatively reasonable grouping is already a good result.

Mu Jin took a quick glance at the registration forms she had just received, and her eyes fell on one of them, and she was suddenly stunned.

"Ning Tian, ​​control department?"

Ning Tian seemed to sense Mu Jin's doubts and explained calmly, "Teacher, you also know that our Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has been passed down for ten thousand years. Regarding the configuration and use of the spirit rings of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Spirit, the sect already has the most complete system.

Therefore, I believe that joining the offensive and control classes will allow me to gain a deeper understanding of the actual combat between spirit masters and deepen my understanding of actual combat. This will be more helpful in helping me better assist others in combat in the future. I have already reported this to the Dean of Studies, and he has agreed with my choice."

After listening to this, Mu Jin nodded in understanding, "Well, what you said does make sense."

Anyway, the dean of studies has already approved it, so it is not something she, a mid-level teacher, should worry about.

Compared to the others who quickly accepted this fact, Wu Feng was probably the only one present who was petrified.

Of course she knew why Ning Tian chose the Control Department. It was because Huo Yuhao was a Control Department soul master and she wanted to continue staying in the same class with him.

Young Master, please wake up soon. Huo Yuhao is a playboy who is affectionate and likes to flirt with other women.

Thinking about the fact that Ning Tian had spent most of his free time with Huo Yuhao over the past three months, and that he even had a gentle smile on his face every day that he had rarely seen before, Wu Feng felt a pang of sadness.

It's been like this for three months, so in a few years, won't I be able to start taking care of the young master's children?

Damn Huo Yuhao!

As expected, I should find an opportunity to pretend to seduce Huo Yuhao. Only in this way can I completely expose his hypocritical true face in front of the young master.

Wu Feng made a silent decision in his heart.

Huo Yuhao looked at the little fire dragon that was staring at him fiercely and seemed to be angry again, feeling a little confused.

At the same time, he gave Ning Tian, ​​who was secretly holding his hand, a look that said, "Everyone is still here, how dare you?"

Ning Tian received his gaze, but just blinked her beautiful blue eyes innocently.

Instead of letting go, she gently rubbed her fingers on Huo Yuhao's palm, indicating that "after everyone is gone, can we take it a step further?"

The little moves between Huo Yuhao and Ning Tian were carried out quite secretly. This was a skill they had developed through repeated "practice" over the past three months in order to avoid Wu Feng's occasional "supervision" and nagging.

However, even if there is a risk of being discovered by others, after a Tianmeng version simulation, unless the other party is an Extreme Douluo, there is no way they will find any clues.

"That's it for Ning Tian," Mu Jin put Ning Tian's registration form aside and pulled out another one from the stack. She held it in her hand, frowning again. "But Xiao Xiao, why did you fill in Control Department as well?"

"Xiao Xiao, your spirit is the Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, a rare weapon spirit. It can be considered a top-tier weapon spirit. If I remember correctly, the Soul-Suppressing Cauldron's main function is support, so why did you choose the Control system?"

As Mu Jin spoke, her tone became a little serious.

Chapter 63 Interesting

For a soul master, one of the most important things is to be clear about the path he wants to take in the future.

Wanting this and that will only lead to the soul master's abilities becoming mixed and unrefined, and becoming completely mediocre.

After all, most soul masters can only add nine soul rings in their lifetime, so every choice is crucial.

Seeing the serious expression on Mu Jin's face, Xiao Xiao subconsciously lowered his head, nervously fiddling with the corner of his clothes, and whispered, "Teacher Mu, I have another martial soul that can assist and control."

When these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked except Huo Yuhao, who had known about it for a long time.

Wang Dong'er was especially shocked. She had always thought that she was the only one in Class 9 with twin martial souls, and was unique. But her roommate had quietly taken out another martial soul?

Feeling everyone's burning gazes, Xiao Xiao lowered her head even more shyly.

However, Xiaoxiao's second martial soul did not have a soul ring attached.

Three months ago, Huo Yuhao had discussed with her in detail the development direction of her second martial soul.

She naturally kept Huo Yuhao's instructions in mind and did not act foolishly like in her previous life and hastily attach a hundred-year soul ring for the sake of a freshman assessment.

After listening to Xiaoxiao's explanation, Mu Jin's smile became even brighter.

"In that case, then it's all right. Although the freshman assessment is only your first experience at Shrek Academy, it will have a significant impact on your future path of cultivation.

Only by getting a good ranking in the freshman assessment can you be trained by the academy and become a core disciple..."

Core disciple?

If it weren't for the freshman assessment, he could openly test the blue-haired boy who seemed to be Tang San's reincarnation, and give Dai Huabin a unique "gift" by the way.

Huo Yuhao probably already asked Xian Lin'er for permission to skip the freshman assessment.

For Huo Yuhao now, unless the opponent is a Soul King or Soul Emperor with a top-level martial soul, he cannot be under any pressure at all.

Taking the freshman assessment is really like punching one kid for every one of them.

"Alright, I won't say any more," Mu Jin said with hope, scanning the six students before her. "I hope the champion of this freshman assessment will come from one of your two teams. You should go down and prepare well."

"Goodbye, teacher." The six people said goodbye to Mu Jin in unison.

As soon as they left the classroom, Wang Dong'er grabbed Xiao Xiao and Nanmen Yun'er's hands. Her pale blue eyes looked at Huo Yuhao and the other two with obvious "alertness" and said in a crisp voice:

"Alright, everyone, let's separate for a while and take this time to get back to work and get ready for the upcoming freshman assessment."

In the past three months, Wang Donger has not been able to defeat Huo Yuhao in any of the competitions.

This naturally made her extremely angry, and this time the freshman assessment was in a team battle mode. She didn't believe that even with the combined strength of the three sisters, they still couldn't defeat Huo Yuhao.

So Wang Donger dragged Xiaoxiao and Nanmen Yuner, who looked reluctant, towards the other side of the academy.

As for Ning Tian, ​​he was quite happy about it.

It would be better to say that she didn't expect Wang Donger to be so tactful and didn't intend to continue disturbing the time she and Huo Yuhao were going to have.

……

Soon the next day came.

The atmosphere among the freshmen of Shrek Academy became tense because of the upcoming freshman assessment.

In the Class 9 classroom, the students had already been divided into groups of three according to the groupings announced yesterday. They were sitting together in low voices, discussing the tactics and coordination for the upcoming freshman assessment.

Ning Tian saw Huo Yuhao walking into the classroom at a glance. Her beautiful blue eyes immediately curved into crescent shapes and she waved to him to come over.

Huo Yuhao looked calm as he walked to the empty seat next to Ning Tian and sat down.

Wu Feng, who was standing next to him, had gotten used to it after a few months and was no longer as angry as he was at the beginning when Huo Yuhao approached.

However, she still curled her lips and asked suspiciously, "Huo Yuhao, why do you come to the classroom so late every day? The inner courtyard dormitories and the freshman teaching building shouldn't be far away, right?"

Huo Yuhao's expression stiffened imperceptibly.

Except for the days when he practiced with Ling Luochen, the rest of the time, he was either dragged into bed by Tianmeng in the morning, or was entangled by Bingdi's scorpion tail without resistance, nurturing her essence at close range.

Thinking about it this way, it seemed that getting up in the morning was indeed a bit difficult for him.

"Alright, Sister Feng." Ning Tian interrupted Wu Feng with a slightly blaming tone, "Yuhao needs to rest well every day to stay in good condition."

As she spoke, she turned to look at Wu Feng, her tone becoming concerned: "Sister Feng, have you been practicing too hard in the past few months? Look, you have some dark circles under your eyes."

Ning Tian looked at Wu Feng with some heartache.

Over the past few months, Wu Feng has basically replaced sleep with meditation. With such hard training, her soul power has increased by three levels in a short period of time.

Wu Feng felt warmed in the heart by Ning Tian's sudden concern. It turned out that the young master still cared about him.

Before she could pat her chest as usual, saying that it was her duty to do this for the young master.

Then he saw Ning Tian turned around and moved closer to Huo Yuhao.

Ning Tian reached out and naturally straightened Huo Yuhao's slightly uneven collar. His tone was a bit resentful, "Yuhao, were you in a hurry to get up today? You didn't even put your clothes in order before you came here."

"Thank you for your help, Ning Tian." Huo Yuhao responded gently.

He thought about it and remembered that when he was washing up this morning, Sister Tianmeng was still hanging on him with sleepy eyes and refused to get down. Thinking about it this way, it was indeed Sister Tianmeng's fault.

Looking at Ning Tian who has become a good wife and mother, Wu Feng wondered if she could really start considering learning parenting knowledge in advance?

Just at this moment, Mu Jin walked into Class 9's classroom.

The Class 9 classroom, which had been noisy and full of discussion, suddenly became quiet.

Mu Jin glanced around and saw that all the students were present and in good spirits. She nodded with satisfaction.

"It seems everyone is in great shape today. The freshman assessment officially begins this afternoon. In the first ten round-robin matches, teams from the same class will rarely meet, so you don't have to worry too much about internal conflicts for now."

"Everyone should gather in the assessment area now and prepare to draw lots for the groups."
