Douluo: The True Eye

Soon, Huo Yuhao followed Zhou Yi to the teacher's office.

Subsequently, Zhou Yi directly and forcefully said to Huo Yuhao: "Huo Yuhao, I don't like to talk nonsense. I'm very curious about your martial soul. You didn't reveal it for assistance when you were running before."

"I also inquired with the students who conducted the assessment for you. Among the students in Class One, the most outstanding martial soul is undoubtedly Wang Dong's Light Goddess Butterfly, followed by your spiritual attribute body martial soul, Spirit Eyes."

"The student who was responsible for assessing you gave you a very high evaluation. Can you tell me what your first soul skill is?"

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao frowned and said, "Teacher Zhou, isn't this question a bit inappropriate?"

"Soul skills are the most important means for every soul master. Except for those inheritance martial souls and soul skills that are famous, most people's soul skills are private."

"If it's this question, then I must refuse to answer."

However, the academy is different from a sect. The so-called teacher is not a lifelong position, so it is not as strict as a sect.

"Alright, since you don't want to say it, then forget it. The main reason I called you here this time is that I hope you can consider joining the Soul Tool Department of our Shrek Academy."

Zhou Yi said bluntly. After all, she had almost developed calluses on her ears from hearing Fan Yu talk about spiritual attribute martial souls, especially body martial souls.

This time, her class happened to have such a good seedling. In Zhou Yi's opinion, bringing him into the Soul Tool Department was not a problem.

After all, Huo Yuhao's foundation was poor. With only level twelve soul power, he wouldn't be able to make a name for himself in the Martial Soul Department of Shrek Academy, where geniuses gathered. It would be better to try the Soul Tool Department.

"You know your own situation. Although your martial soul is special, your foundation is too poor. Level twelve soul power is enough to prove that your innate soul power level is not high. Instead of being in the highly competitive Martial Soul Department, you might as well consider joining the Soul Tool Department."

Huo Yuhao shook his head: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in the Soul Tool Department. Teacher Zhou, please find someone else."

'Join the Soul Tool Department? Are you crazy? If I really want to learn about soul tools, why wouldn't I find a way to go to the Sun Moon Empire? Studying soul tools at Shrek Academy, who knows if what they teach is a trap discarded by the Sun Moon Empire.'

'Moreover, with my current strength, I don't have extra time to research soul tools. If I really want to research, it's impossible for me to follow the steps like ordinary soul tool masters.'

'Even if I really want to seriously study soul tools, it's more reliable to wait until my spiritual power level and soul power cultivation increase before I also cultivate it, after all, the stronger the spiritual power, the greater the advantage in terms of soul tool masters.'

Hearing this, Zhou Yi's gaze became a little colder, but she didn't force him, she just nodded.

After all, the value that Huo Yuhao showed at this time was just a soul master seedling with decent combat ability, but his innate soul power was too low, and he didn't have much cultivation value.

She didn't show the great value of spiritual detection that was shown in the original book, and she didn't need to force someone who didn't want to learn soul tools to learn soul tools.

"Well, in that case, you can go back first, but you should still consider it carefully. After all, Tang Ya and Bei Bei have also submitted an application to the academy to combine hidden weapons and soul tools."

"It's just that the two of them don't have any talent in soul tools. I think you, as a spiritual attribute soul master, have this possibility."

Huo Yuhao nodded: "Goodbye, Teacher Zhou." Then he left Zhou Yi's office directly.

'Speaking of soul tools, I have been too busy recently and forgot about it. I haven't had time to study the one I have. Although the origin is a bit tricky, it is still a fifth-level soul tool. I can try to study it later.'

'Since the soul tool core magic circle can be applied to metal, if it is improved through spiritual power, can it be directly displayed in the form of soul skills?'

'Or the Invincible Shield in the original work, if I can use the abilities of these disposable soul tools freely through soul power, it is more reliable than studying how to match soul rings.'

Soon, Huo Yuhao went to the cafeteria to finish his meal and returned to the dormitory. Wang Dong had also returned to the dormitory early, seemingly waiting for Huo Yuhao.

"Huo Yuhao, what did that perverted old hag call you to talk about?" Wang Dong asked curiously.

"Why do you talk so much?" Huo Yuhao casually lay on the bed and asked, "How have you been thinking about the question I asked you before class? What kind of person do you think Zhou Yi is?"

Biting his lip lightly, Wang Dong replied: "Fierce? Unreasonable?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head helplessly, and then said to Wang Dong: "She didn't say a word wrong, you are just an idiot."

"Your family is also from a large sect or a large family, right? Didn't they teach you this? Listen carefully, I will only say it once, how much you can comprehend depends on yourself."

"You should have heard of Zhou Yi's reputation in the school during this time, right?"

"A strict good teacher? A quarter of the inner court ratio? Consistent praise from all inner court disciples? That's right, right?" Huo Yuhao said with a non-smiling expression.

Wang Dong nodded and sat up on the bed, looking at the lazy Huo Yuhao opposite him and said: "Yes, is there a problem? At least before, that perverted old hag did expel a few people, but . . ."

"But you want to say that these people were expelled because they violated the rules? Then tell me, who set these rules?"

"School regulations? Or what? Aren't they all Zhou Yi's rules?"

"A quarter of the inner court enrollment ratio is indeed not low, but that's all. Then you go and inquire about the people Zhou Yi expelled. Doesn't her expulsion rate also far exceed that of other teachers?"

"In fact, only after you comprehensively calculate these two data can you discover that her so-called teaching and strictness do not ultimately produce better results than other teachers, but worse."

"In the end, her teaching model is not teaching at all, but a lesson."

"In fact, as a teacher, isn't the real duty to correct and make those lazy students with poor physical foundations excellent?"

"Zhou Yi's approach is indeed to solve this problem directly from the root. After all, if I expel you, you will naturally not hold others back, and the proportion of students entering the inner court will naturally increase, right?"

Hearing this, Wang Dong suddenly understood why he felt vaguely that something was wrong when he inquired about Zhou Yi's information before, but he couldn't figure out why.

But then again, this problem isn't really Zhou Yi's fault. After all, I don't think she has much of a brain. She's just simple, stupid, and evil.

You don't think Zhou Yi's methods can cover the sky with one hand, do you?" Huo Yuhao sneered, "It's just that the entire Shrek Academy is like this."

Zhou Yi's style is just a miniature of Shrek Academy. In fact, she's just an insignificant part of Shrek Academy.

Soul Emperor, sounds strong, but if you really put it on the continent, it's just so-so. It won't make much of a splash.

Inner Court disciples, hehe, have you ever thought about how many people come to Shrek Academy genuinely wanting to enter the Inner Court? And how many people will truly stay in the Inner Court and completely become people of Shrek Academy?

You need to know that the first necessary condition for joining Shrek Academy is a city lord's recommendation letter.

For those who can produce a city lord's recommendation letter, if they have a background, how could their backing forces allow them to stay in Shrek Academy forever?

If they don't have a background, then I ask you, wouldn't the city lords of those imperial cities try to win over these commoner geniuses with good innate soul power and martial souls?

Whether it's taking them as subordinates or having them join their own families to improve their bloodline inheritance, it's all beneficial.

In the end, it's all pretty much the same. The second most important condition for entering the Inner Court of Shrek Academy, besides talent, is...

Is what?" Wang Dong asked eagerly.

The degree of affinity for Shrek Academy. At the very least, they can't harbor ulterior motives and must identify with Shrek Academy's teaching philosophy from the heart.

And that's Zhou Yi's role." While speaking eloquently, Huo Yuhao activated his Eye of Truth. At this moment, outside the dormitory building, a humanoid figure that was a bit dazzling seemed to have some subtle emotional fluctuations.

Why doesn't the school stop Zhou Yi's behavior? Because when Zhou Yi does this, even if the students she screens out eventually leave Shrek Academy...

Under her long-term taming, these people will still have a longing for Shrek and believe that they simply don't meet Shrek Academy's 'elite' requirements. At most, they'll just hate Zhou Yi alone.

As for the source of students, Shrek, as the number one academy on the continent, doesn't lack these students. What if all the students in a grade are expelled? Just recruit another batch of geniuses.

And geniuses are already outstanding. Does it matter if a teacher teaches them wholeheartedly? The path of a soul master is nothing more than cultivation and soul hunting. And in the end, it's actually the allocation of resources.

In any case, Shrek Academy has the Star Dou Great Forest behind it, plus the accumulation of supplies over the years as the number one academy on the continent, so the resources in this regard are still quite abundant.

Plus, with the reputation accumulated over ten thousand years, is it difficult to pick seven well-cultivated individuals from a large group of geniuses as a golden brand?

In fact, most aristocratic and sect disciples who come to Shrek Academy are aware of the situation. They come to gild themselves, or to make connections and win over potential commoners. This is the true value of Shrek Academy's existence.

Only a fool like you would really think everyone is here to study.

Otherwise, the sect's inherited martial soul, passed down for thousands or tens of thousands of years, even if the sect's inherited martial soul is a pig, it would have to be piled into a Pig King through experience.

What kind of help can Shrek Academy provide them? Soul ring configuration methods? Or preferential treatment in educational resources?

Huo Yuhao sighed as he lay on the bed, "After this class, you should have realized that Zhou Yi's teaching ability can only be described as a disaster. She just reads from the book and is rigid and inflexible. If you really follow her, you'll only learn to be like her."

After saying this, Huo Yuhao paused for a moment and didn't continue. Wang Dong asked anxiously, "Go on, you've already said this much, so explain it clearly."

Of course, a genuine Shrek person, hahaha, okay, I'm going to take a nap. You can play by yourself. We have class in the afternoon."

Huo Yuhao didn't say anything more, turned over, and covered himself with the quilt.

Because he had already said enough. The rest was for Wang Dong to figure out on her own. Some things can only be understood by oneself. What others tell you is always someone else's. As for whether this fool can figure it out, that's her own business.

Seeing this scene, Wang Dong gnashed her teeth and glared fiercely at Huo Yuhao's enigmatic back.

Outside the teaching building, bathed in the afternoon sun, Mu En squinted his old eyes and lay on a recliner.

'Interesting kid, but he sees things very clearly. Shrek Academy lacks people who can see things so clearly. After all, to maintain Shrek Academy, besides a passion, wisdom is also very important.'

'However, compared to him, this little girl from the Clear Sky School is a bit silly. But her talent is also outstanding. Let me see what the Clear Sky School wants to do next.'

"And while I'm at it, I'll see if you, this slippery kid, have any potential worth investing in for my Shrek Academy.'

The leisurely lunch break passed quickly. During this time, Tang Ya also brought Bei Bei to the dormitory to look for Huo Yuhao, but Wang Dong brushed them off with the excuse that Huo Yuhao was resting to recover from Zhou Yi's punishment in the morning.

'It's impossible to work. It's impossible to work in this lifetime.' Huo Yuhao certainly wasn't going to set up a stall to sell grilled fish. Wasn't that a pure waste of his time?

If it really came down to it, he could sell the Level 5 soul tool, the White Tiger Dagger, in his hand. A Level 3 soul tool could sell for several thousand gold soul coins, and even a relatively weak Level 5 soul tool could easily sell for over ten thousand.

Moreover, the White Tiger Dagger was of good quality and could be used even by those with lower cultivation. In that case, wouldn't that cover his living expenses for the next few years at Shrek Academy?

As for the fact that it was supposedly Huo Yun'er's only keepsake? Huo Yun'er hadn't vanished into thin air. Only when Huo Yuhao's own strength increased would it be possible to save her.

And if he couldn't save her, keeping this keepsake wouldn't be of much use. On the contrary, if this keepsake could be exchanged for more value in his hands, Huo Yuhao believed that the original owner would also agree. After all, he had now inherited the original owner's memories.

Although he said he was sleeping, Huo Yuhao wasn't idle at this time. He was currently disassembling the structure and operational principles of the Level 5 soul tool, the White Tiger Dagger, in his spiritual sea.
