Douluo: The True Eye
#7 - The unavoidable fate, the first entrance examination
While traveling, Bei Bei and Tang Ya also introduced Huo Yuhao to the relevant precautions regarding Shrek Academy, naturally centered around Tang San, with rainbow farts blowing in a radius around him.
However, Huo Yuhao roughly understood that the current Shrek Academy should not have undergone changes due to the butterfly effect or quantum mechanics caused by his transmigration.
Thus deviating from the original plot, the current Shrek Academy is still the Shrek Academy from the original work.
'That's good. If there were any earth-shattering changes, I would need to reconsider where to go. This is enough for now. Let's accumulate some strength and get through the most difficult period of weakness.'
Finally, Huo Yuhao and his group arrived at Shrek City, entering through the East Gate. Shrek Academy was not far away.
Looking at this sizable city, Huo Yuhao didn't feel particularly excited. After all, unlike the original owner who had never left the White Tiger Duke's mansion, which was only a small plot of land,
he was a transmigrator. As a college student, he had taken high-speed trains and planes, traversing thousands of miles to go to school. The scale of Shrek City could only be considered a third-tier city at best.
And it was the less developed kind. Apart from the city walls, which were used to resist beast tides and defend the city, being somewhat impressive, the so-called prosperity was just so-so in Huo Yuhao's eyes.
'Finally arrived, but...' Huo Yuhao looked around. More than the unremarkable city buildings and merchants, Huo Yuhao was more interested in the people in the city.
It was difficult to see so many people when traveling before. With the activation of the Eye of Truth, Huo Yuhao could clearly see the soul power circulation and the vaguely formed Martial Soul images within each person.
'If I want to study Martial Souls in the future, I still need to find places with more people to observe. It seems that the difference in soul power also has different effects on Martial Souls. Tang Ya and Bei Bei's soul power is similar, but I didn't notice it before.'
"Senior Brother, I have confidence in you. Then, Teacher Xiao Ya, I'll take Yuhao to rent a hotel in the city first."
"With Little Junior Brother's mastery of the Tang Sect's unique skills, coupled with his Martial Soul's insight, as long as he is equipped with some hidden weapons, he should be able to pass the assessment smoothly."
Hearing this, Tang Ya nodded and patted her chest, guaranteeing, "Leave the matter of hidden weapons to me. Little Yuhao, practice the 'Hidden Weapon Manual' more these few days, and then show off your skills in the entrance exam! Let everyone know the power of our Tang Sect!"
Bei Bei also had a lot of confidence in Huo Yuhao. In any case, in the one-ring and two-ring stages, hidden weapons still had a great advantage, and Huo Yuhao's insight was even more powerful.
Although Huo Yuhao's soul power was not strong, with the hidden weapons allowed to be used in the assessment, his lethality would not be inferior to that of an ordinary two-ring Great Soul Master.
This was also the reason why Bei Bei was willing to let Huo Yuhao participate. Otherwise, if Huo Yuhao's strength was too weak and caused them to lose face, even if he could still join through the Tang Sect's recommended quota, it would only make people talk even more.
Huo Yuhao followed Bei Bei to rent a hotel in the city. At the same time, Bei Bei also gave Huo Yuhao some gold soul coins for living expenses.
"Little Junior Brother, I have to go back to Shrek Academy first to report the relevant matters of this previous trip. I'll come to find you after I've dealt with the matters in the academy."
"Take this money first and buy some daily necessities to prepare for entering the school later," Bei Bei said with a smile.
After all, Huo Yuhao had hinted at their new Little Junior Brother's poor situation when he asked them to collect the Mandala Snake corpse. Now that they knew, as the Eldest Senior Brother, he would naturally not treat the Little Junior Brother unfairly.
"Okay, Eldest Senior Brother, then I'll go practice the 'Hidden Weapon Manual' first," Huo Yuhao said after taking the money bag.
After Bei Bei left and returned to the room, Huo Yuhao finally breathed a sigh of relief after closing the door.
The reason why he wanted to go through the process of joining Shrek Academy was not to preserve the reputation of the Tang Sect, but to delay the time of enrollment as much as possible.
After all, he didn't want to become one of the first to enroll through the Tang Sect's special channel and be assigned to Zhou Yi's class.
Although he was prepared to take things as they came, Huo Yuhao was not prepared to experience the educational policy of the famous teacher Zhou Yi. For him, at his weakest moment, it was most important to avoid attracting attention and develop in secret.
'But even if I pass, I can only be safe for the first academic year. After the freshman assessment and class division, the control system and the strong attack system are still managed by Zhou Yi. It's a headache.'
'It doesn't seem impossible. Although the auxiliary system is not good, if it really doesn't work, I'll sign up for the agility system. Anyway, even though the original work said it was a class division, there wasn't much difference in reality.'
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao calmed down a little. As for the so-called practice of Tang Sect's unique skills? With the Tianmeng brand automatic cultivation machine, he naturally didn't need to do it himself.
And the "Hidden Weapon Manual" had already been completely recorded in Huo Yuhao's mind after he first got it. Through the cooperation of mental power and the Eye of Truth, although his physical strength was a bit poor, it was not a problem to deal with Soul Master and Great Soul Master level battles.
'The entrance examination lasts for three days. With the Tang Sect's recommendation, I can directly bypass the first level of recommendation letter and the second level of soul power detection and age detection.'
'The third level is to check the Martial Soul soul skill matching and the control ability of the Martial Soul. With the Tang Sect as a guarantee, it is not a problem either.'
‘All that's left is the fourth test, the practical combat. It shouldn't be too difficult, but it's best to prepare. After Beibei comes back, I'll see if I can get some tips from him and spar a bit.’
‘After all, although I've pretty much mastered my martial soul since coming to this world, I haven't really had a proper practical combat with anyone yet.’
Two days passed in a flash. The next day, Beibei came to the hotel to find Huo Yuhao, and also brought a new gift from Tang Ya: a batch of basic hidden weapons produced by the Tang Sect.
Moreover, due to Tang San's connection with Shrek Academy, all of these mechanical hidden weapons, unlike soul tools, can be used without restriction in all of Shrek Academy's assessments and competitions.
On the third day, which was also the last day of the entrance examination, Huo Yuhao was brought to Shrek Academy by Beibei. With the Tang Sect's guarantee for the first three tests, there was naturally no need to say more.
The fourth test was practical combat, and it was a multi-person cooperative combat. Every three people were divided into a group, and the teams were assessed one by one.
Of course, defeating the assessment target isn't the only way to pass here. After all, they are facing their seniors from Shrek Academy.
How could this group of little newbies, with only one or at most two soul rings, possibly achieve that?
What they have to do is cooperate with each other, use the advantages of their martial souls as much as possible, and persist under the attacks of the seniors, or ensure that their team can persist longer.
Although the team formation is random, it is not completely random. After all, it is impossible to assign three auxiliary-type soul masters together.
The longer they last, or the more outstanding their performance, the higher the score they will receive in the end. Only with a sufficient comprehensive score from all four tests can they become a member of Shrek Academy.
“A body martial soul, but it's just the eyes? And the soul skills are more inclined towards auxiliary and agility? I understand.” A student responsible for registration nodded to Beibei, who brought Huo Yuhao: “Senior Brother Beibei, let this little brother come with me.”
Beibei nodded, and Huo Yuhao followed the other person. When he saw the people waiting together in the arena, whose appearance characteristics were too obvious, Huo Yuhao faintly understood that his previous plan might fall through.
That is, although the entrance examination of Shrek Academy has four tests, and the first three tests can be taken as long as you arrive within the enrollment time.
However, the fourth test is not like that. Except for some who have special privileges, such as the Tang Sect, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, or the imperial families of the major empires, these forces have a close relationship with Shrek.
The fourth test for other students is accumulated until the third day because it requires teamwork.
‘That big fatty should be Xie Huanyue? I can't recognize the others. Wait, isn't that pink hair... Forget it, I hope God blesses me and doesn't put me in Zhou Yi's class.’
He activated the Eye of Truth, but only observed the soul power of the people around him, and did not conduct in-depth observation, because after these few days of development, Huo Yuhao had almost understood the consumption required for opening the Eye of Truth at different levels.
Shallow observation consumes almost no mental power; deep observation, the more detailed and precise the observation, the more mental power it consumes. The exam is next, so it's better not to cause extra trouble.
“Number One, Number Two, Number Three, form a group, gather with your team members, ten minutes to discuss tactics and prepare for the assessment.”
“Number Thirty-one, Wang Dong; Number Thirty-two, Huo Yuhao; Number Thirty-three, Zhao Haochen, form a group, gather with your team members, ten minutes to discuss tactics and prepare for the assessment.”
‘…’ Hearing this, Huo Yuhao sighed helplessly in his heart. He could guarantee that at this moment, Tang Buddha must be arranging him, otherwise, it couldn't be such a coincidence.
Why is it that he and Wang Dong are grouped together? Moreover, this Miss Wang Dong must have gotten the recommendation letter through the Clear Sky School, otherwise she wouldn't have any connections on her own.
Moreover, given the relationship between the Clear Sky School and Shrek Academy, does Wang Dong even need to take an entrance exam? Of course, she should be admitted without examination. How could she possibly come to team up with him?
“You are my teammates for this entrance examination? Don't hold me back!” The handsome young man, with his head raised proudly, a delicate appearance, fair skin, and large eyes with neat short hair showing a faint pink-blue color, said this.
“Wang Dong, soul power level twenty-one, two-ring power attack-type battle soul master.”
Hearing this, the little fatty named Zhao Haochen said excitedly: “My name is Zhao Haochen, my martial soul is Big Chicken Leg, a level fifteen auxiliary-type battle soul master. I'm counting on you, big brother, for this assessment!”
“Huo Yuhao, soul power level twelve, tentatively positioned as an agility attack-type battle soul master.” Huo Yuhao said lightly.
“? ? ?” Hearing this, Wang Dong and Zhao Haochen both looked sideways: “Level twelve? Isn't the standard for admission level fifteen?”
The little fatty asked suspiciously, and Huo Yuhao shrugged his shoulders, not saying much.
This level twelve soul power was only recently broken through by Huo Yuhao, and this is still because his cultivation speed is supported by the Tiameng brand cultivation aid, which runs non-stop for twenty-four hours.
The result is much faster than the original owner, who was only level eleven at this time.
Hearing this, Wang Dong raised an eyebrow: “Hmph, no matter how you sneaked in, don't hold me back, or you'll be sorry later!”
“Ah, yes, yes, yes.” Huo Yuhao nodded, responding perfunctorily.
“You!” Although Wang Dong was a bit arrogant, he could still understand good and bad words. Huo Yuhao was clearly being perfunctory, and just as he was about to flare up, he heard a voice.
“Number Thirty-one, Wang Dong; Number Thirty-two, Huo Yuhao; Number Thirty-three, Zhao Haochen, prepare to enter the arena for the assessment!” The Shrek Academy senior who was the examiner shouted.
“Hmph, we'll see.” Wang Dong took the lead and walked towards the examination arena, while Huo Yuhao and Zhao Haochen followed closely behind. Without discussing any tactics, they stepped onto the battlefield for their first battle.
“He Heng'an, level forty-five defense-type battle soul master, martial soul: Gold-Digging Armor.” Huo Yuhao's examiner was a tall man with a proper appearance.
“Wang Dong, level twenty-one power attack-type battle soul master, martial soul: Butterfly Goddess of Light!”
“Huo Yuhao, level twelve agility attack-type battle soul master, martial soul: Spiritual Eye.” Huo Yuhao finally reported the name of Spiritual Eye. After all, the name of the martial soul, no matter how cool, cannot be eaten. It's best to hide a hand if you can.
“Zhao Haochen, level fifteen auxiliary-type battle soul master, martial soul: Big Chicken Leg.”
Then, another examiner responsible for scoring on the side of the battlefield lit a stick of incense, and then the battle officially began!
