Chapter 90 Returning to the Academy, Dai Huabin's Provocation!

Shrek Academy.

It's that time of year again, the most important time of the year, the start of the school year. Early in the morning, a large number of people had already gathered outside Shrek Academy.

Aside from returning students, the vast majority of students were parents or elders bringing their children to register and participate in the new student entrance examination.

No matter your background or where you got the referral, if you don't pass the entrance exam, you'll all have to go home.

Some senior freshmen were assisting the teachers with the assessment at the school gate. Although they were just students, those who represented Shrek Academy here were at least at the level of a three-ring Soul Master.

Reaching the Soul Master level grants one considerable status on the continent. Moreover, these students are all so young; regardless of which faction they join, they will receive intensive training.

The minimum standard for graduating from Shrek Academy's outer academy is a four-ring Soul Master. Those who do not reach the Soul Master level cannot become sixth-year students and will ultimately be eliminated in the assessment.

The holiday has been going on for over twenty days now, and the new school year will start in a few days. Freshmen are busy taking entrance exams, while returning students are also busy with their own promotion exams.

Only by passing the advancement assessment can they truly advance to a higher grade. Otherwise, they will end up like the freshmen who failed the entrance exam and have to return home.

Of course, students with strong enough abilities are not afraid of assessments, and even like them, because they are a rare opportunity to show off in front of their peers.

If one is fortunate enough to gain the favor of a powerful successor and become their partner, it would be a legendary tale of a fish leaping to become a dragon.

For example, right now, two beautiful figures are standing at the entrance of Shrek Academy, constantly looking out. The new students who have come to register at Shrek Academy are all drawn to these two stunningly beautiful women.

"Ning Tian? Wu Feng? Heh, are you waiting for Huo Yuhao? What, is he too scared to come because he's worried he won't pass the advancement exam?"

Three people walked along the road beside them; they were Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and Cui Yajie.

Dai Huabin looked much taller, and his originally cold and hard expression seemed to have become more gloomy. He didn't look like a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy at all, but rather had a maturity far beyond his peers.

Zhu Lu, standing beside him, had also blossomed into a more shapely woman. She had developed early, and her height was almost the same as Dai Huabin's. She walked with a silent gait, befitting the possessor of the Netherworld Cat Martial Soul.

The other girl walking with them was naturally Cui Yajie, a nine-tailed fox soul master. Unlike Dai Huabin's offensive type and Zhu Lu's agile offensive type, Cui Yajie's role was more ambiguous. Her first soul skill, Charm, should be considered a control type, but her second soul skill, Fox Tail Needle, was somewhere between an offensive and agile offensive type.

After Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu went to Class Two, she followed them, since they had been in the same group during the freshman assessment.

For Cui Yajie, being able to latch onto the powerful White Tiger Duke's mansion and even have the chance to become Dai Huabin's lover, the future White Tiger Duke, through her beauty was a rare opportunity.

"Hey, isn't this Yuhao's defeated opponent? What, you still dare to act arrogantly in front of us after being kicked out of Class 1? Wasn't the embarrassment you suffered last time enough?"

Wu Feng had spent a whole year with Huo Yuhao and had learned about 60-70% of Huo Yuhao's sharp tongue. At this moment, just this one sentence was enough to break Dai Huabin's defenses, causing the veins on his forehead to throb and almost causing him to explode.

Being expelled from Class One was an utter disgrace to him; Dai Huabin had never suffered such humiliation in his life.

As the eldest son of the White Tiger Duke, he received not only a strict education from a young age, but also developed an arrogant personality. Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed someone to beat up Huo Yuhao, who was blocking his way, at such a young age, leading to Huo Yun'er's death.

As the eldest son of the White Tiger Duke, Dai Huabin was not deterred by this great humiliation; on the contrary, it greatly inspired his fighting spirit.

He not only became the class monitor of Class Two through his own efforts, but also devoted himself to cultivation over the past year, which made great progress in his cultivation.

Already possessing exceptional talent, his soul power has now reached level thirty-nine, just one step away from the Soul Master realm. In terms of cultivation alone, he is absolutely unmatched among the second-year students.

Of course, he couldn't reach this level of soul power cultivation through hard work alone. During this holiday, he secretly took some forbidden drugs from the Sun Moon Empire to enhance his strength, even though it would deplete some of his potential. But as long as he could find Huo Yuhao and avenge his humiliation, it was all worth it in his eyes.

A cold glint flashed in Zhu Lu's eyes, and she said sarcastically, "There's not much time left before the start of the semester. Don't you know the academy's rules? If he doesn't report for duty soon, he'll be expelled."

Upon hearing this, Ning Tian's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he asked, "Are you sure?"

"Forehead"

Ning Tian's question prompted Zhu Lu and the others to recall the incident. Huo Yuhao had violated countless school rules before; could a mere lateness really do him any harm?

An eerie silence fell over everyone in an instant. Just then, a familiar voice rang out from the gates of Shrek Academy.

"Senior, this is my weapon, not a coffin lid. I don't have the habit of carrying a coffin around."

Ning Tian and Wu Feng were both taken aback, then a hint of joy flashed in their eyes. They turned to look at the entrance of Shrek Academy. Who else could it be but Huo Yuhao entering the academy at this moment?

"Yuhao, over here!" Ning Tian waved and called out loudly.

Having finally managed to escape from the senior guard at the gate, Huo Yuhao turned around and saw Ning Tian and his companion confronting Dai Huabin and his group. He immediately burst into laughter.

Good grief, you've got a path to heaven but no way to hell, yet you've chosen to walk right into it! I hadn't even gone looking for trouble with you, but you've already delivered yourself to my doorstep.

"Hey, isn't this Young Master Dai? It's been a month since we last met, what's gotten into you?" Huo Yuhao chuckled as he walked over.

"Huo Yuhao, what did you say?!" Dai Huabin took a step forward and slapped Huo Yuhao with his palm.

On the surface, it seemed that he was enraged by Huo Yuhao's provocation and attacked recklessly. However, in reality, he realized that he could no longer discern the depth of Huo Yuhao's cultivation level, and out of alarm, he decided to test Huo Yuhao's strength.

Huo Yuhao stepped forward and blocked Dai Huabin's palm strike with both hands. However, his face suddenly turned pale, and he staggered back two steps.

Dai Huabin's eyes flickered slightly, and he immediately felt certain. It seemed that with his greatly improved cultivation, he now had a good chance of defeating Huo Yuhao!

"Dai Huabin, if you want to fight, I'll be waiting for you in the Soul Arena anytime. And if you want to continue gambling, I'm happy to oblige!" Huo Yuhao said coldly, but his hands behind his back trembled slightly.

Huo Yuhao's subtle movements didn't escape Dai Huabin's shrewd eyes; he was already feeling quite confident. Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Dai Huabin coldly replied, "What are we betting on?"

"How about we bet on our performance in the upgrade assessment?"
