Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 105 My End, Your Beginning (Daily 10,000 words)

Huo Yuhao's gaze swept across the form in his hand. It was roughly divided into two parts. One part was what the students could fill out from the beginning, including their martial soul classification, soul power level, height, weight, and gender.

The latter half of the table is divided into five main categories: strength, speed, reaction, impact resistance, and endurance, with each category further subdivided into many subcategories.

Taking strength as an example, in addition to the most common test of striking power, bicep curl strength, deadlift strength, wrist strength, bench press, weighted pull-ups and weighted squats are all included in the strength calculation items. Just by glancing at this dense list of items, Huo Yuhao knew that he wouldn't have an easy time today.

Before Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong could finish reading all the test tasks on the form, Teacher Wang Yan stuffed several storage soul tools into their hands.

"Yuhao, Wang Dong, please help us set up all the equipment for today's physical education class."

"The five tests of strength, speed, reaction, impact resistance and endurance represent five different sets of equipment. Remember to set them up in separate areas. From now on, this area of ​​more than 2,000 square meters belongs to our class. Once the equipment is set up, it will not need to be moved."

Seeing the training methods he had never seen before in Ashina, Huo Yuhao was quite surprised. It turned out that there were more training methods than just weighted running at Shrek Academy.

"What, are you surprised?"

Wang Yan smiled and said, "Our school's weighted running is a long-standing tradition, and it's normal that many teachers don't like to change it. However, last year, more students from the graduating class I taught were admitted to the inner academy than more teachers of the same grade. If we can maintain this performance and continue teaching you for a few more years, perhaps our school's tradition of weighted running can really be changed?"

So, Professor Wang Yan did all of this research on his own?

Wang Dong couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration, but soon a strange feeling of disgust flashed through his mind.

What's wrong with weighted running? Why do we have to change the weighted running tradition that has been passed down for 10,000 years? The Shrek Seven Devils achieved their outstanding success because of weighted running. Who do you think you are, Wang Yan, to insist on changing weighted running? Who do you think you are?

Wang Dong suddenly squatted down, looking unwell, and his complexion was not good, which made Huo Yuhao and Wang Yan worry.

"Wang Dong, what's wrong?"

Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong, whose complexion wasn't good, and asked with some concern.

"Nothing, it's nothing, I just suddenly feel really irritable, like my belongings in the house have been rearranged. I don't know why, I'll just rest for a bit."

Wang Dong squatted on the ground to recover for a while, and quickly regained his composure. He waved his hand to indicate that the two of them should not mind him.

"Shall I take you to the school clinic first?"

"No, no need. I just suddenly felt a little unwell, but I feel much better now."

Wang Dong stood up, somewhat embarrassed, and touched his forehead: "Let's go, let's help the teacher set up the equipment."

"Are you really alright, kid? It's understandable that you're a young master and a little weak. I won't laugh at you, Wang Dong."

Huo Yuhao followed after him as he spoke.

"You idiot, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"

Just as Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were setting up the training equipment with Wang Yan as instructed, many other students from Class One also arrived. After hearing that the two thousand square meters of training space nearby would be exclusively for Class One, many students cheered and joined in the work of setting up the equipment.

With everyone's help, the equipment was set up very quickly. At the same time, some senior students wearing purple or even black school uniforms walked towards Class 1's location.

"Brother Jiechu, Brother Beibei, Sister Tangya, Sister Nannan, what brings you all here?"

Looking at those familiar figures, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel excited.

"Hey, you little brat, you saw so many people but didn't you see me?"

Blocked by the outstanding figure, Xu Sanshi, dressed in a black school uniform, jumped out and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Hey, Brother Xu, you're here too! I didn't see you because you were blocked by Brother Jiejie."

Huo Yuhao scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

"Haha, Chico (brother), did you miss me? Teacher Wang posted a notice on the bulletin board asking students who were free to come and help record your grades and add credits, so we came over, haha."

Jie Chui opened his broad arms and gave Huo Yuhao a bear hug, almost suffocating Huo Yuhao.

"That's right. Some credits at our school are hard to get. You have to sell your labor to earn them. Xiaoya, Nannan, and I are okay. We were busy in the second and third years and have accumulated almost all the credits. But Sanshi and Jiechu are in a worse situation. They're already in the sixth year and they still have to work hard to earn credits."

Beibei glanced at Jiechu and Xu Sanshi, and laughed rather unrestrainedly.

Upon hearing Bei Bei's words, Huo Yuhao suddenly recalled the figures of Bei Bei and Tang Ya bustling around the school gate when he arrived at Shrek Academy two years ago, and he immediately understood.

So this isn't really voluntary work for you guys, you're all just here for the credits?

Although there were quite a few students in Class 1, fortunately there were also many senior students who helped record the scores. Thus, the students in Class 1 were divided into five groups of about twenty people each, and began to undergo tests on strength, speed, reaction, endurance, and resistance to blows.

Before the test began, Teacher Wang Yan specifically reminded everyone that the test results would directly affect the selection of the class monitor and vice class monitor, but the student with the best grades on paper would not necessarily be the winner.

The reason is simple: if a powerful, two-ring Soul Master can deliver a punch with 500 kilograms of force, that is indeed excellent. But if a one-ring Support Soul Master below him delivers a punch with 400 kilograms of force, then the 500 kilograms of force is far less impressive compared to that one-ring Support Soul Master.

Therefore, in addition to simply looking at the paper grades, there are other ways to assess whether a student's grades are excellent, and this method of calculation has been unanimously recognized by everyone in the class.

Huo Yuhao glanced at Teacher Li, the healing-type Soul Saint who had somehow appeared in the impact resistance test area, and immediately sensed something was wrong. He pulled Wang Dong and headed towards the strength test area.

"Why are you grabbing people's hands like that? What's wrong?"

Wang Dong looked completely bewildered. He had originally planned to check out the impact resistance test area first, but before he could even take a step, Huo Yuhao dragged him away.

"The old man standing in the impact resistance test area is a healing-type Soul Saint. If you don't want to affect the results of the next four tests, you'd better put your impact resistance test last."

"Oh"

Thank you to all the readers in the comments section for pointing out the errors. When I wrote about "Outstanding," I based it on Jack's personality, so I included his catchphrases, but I misspelled some words. It's all been corrected now.

chico: boy

chica: girl

These two words can mean partner or friend, depending on the context.
