Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 113 Is Huo Yuhao the illegitimate son of a powerful figure? (Daily 10,000 words)

As the students in the class gradually determined their direction after a heated discussion, Wang Yan pressed his hands together a few times to stop the noise in the class.

"As your homeroom teacher for the past three months, I am very happy to see the changes in you, but I also want to tell you all that it is time to test your abilities."

"I hope that all of you can perform at your best in the freshman competition, as this will determine your class placement three months from now and whether you will receive preferential treatment from the college in the future."

"I believe many of you who are well-informed have already heard from your families or upperclassmen that the freshman competition will determine the core disciples. I'm here to tell you that it is indeed true."

"That's why I really hope everyone can give their best in the freshman competition. Don't let complacency cause you to miss out on the core disciple status that should belong to you."

"Now I'll talk about the temporary group assignments. If you have any objections, please come to my office before this evening. These assignments are based on the surveys you filled out a few days ago, and we've tried to take everyone's wishes into consideration as much as possible."

"Of course, even so, our grouping cannot satisfy everyone. After all, some students are ranked at the top of the list of more than thirty group preferences. I can't possibly divide that person into more than thirty groups and give one share to each group."

Hearing Wang Yan's words, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Although Huo Yuhao hasn't caused any other trouble in the three months since the start of the semester, he's done so much in the past two years at Shrek Academy that not only the students in Class 1, but also most of the students in the other nine classes know his name to some extent.

Most students will hear the legend of Huo Yuhao when they go out to eat, and they will also hear the legend of Huo Yuhao when they go to repair their soul tools.

That's not all; the real problem is that during his dorm room chats with his friends, Huo Yuhao often got caught up in the bizarre stories of the Shrek Academy seniors, such as:

"Have you heard? We have a sixth-year student from our Foreign Languages ​​Department who went to the Soul Arena with a freshman class two years ago, and they only managed a draw!"

"Really? Is that true? It's that far-fetched?"

"It's true! I heard it from my senior in the third year. Huo Yuhao from Class One is supposedly the illegitimate son of a big shot in the Sea God Pavilion, which is why he's so powerful. More than half of the big shots from the Sea God Pavilion came to that competition!"

"Who is this Huo Yuhao's son? Aren't all the deans and vice-deans of our school's Sea God Pavilion all titled Douluo-level powerhouses? They must be at least seventy or eighty years old, right? They may be old in years, but they're young at heart!"

"Who knows? But the fact that Huo Yuhao is the illegitimate son of the Sea God Pavilion's bigwig is definitely true. My brother said he personally saw Huo Yuhao auditing classes in their class several times, and the teachers didn't dare to say a word. We haven't even finished the freshman competition and been assigned to classes yet. Look, besides him, who else can take classes in both the Martial Soul Department and the Soul Guidance Department at the same time?"

"So that explains why Huo Yuhao gets along so well with so many upperclassmen. So many people greet him on the street. Now I know!"

As expected, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were assigned to the same group. What surprised them was that Xiao Xiao, a young girl, was also assigned to their group.

Xiao Xiao, still a little shy, turned to look behind her, but her gaze completely ignored Huo Yuhao and fell on the increasingly handsome Wang Dong. Her face flushed, and she turned back and lowered her head.

"Wang Dong, that girl's eyes are practically sparkling when she looks at you, why are you being so distant?"

Huo Yuhao leaned on the table and whispered to Wang Dong.

"Dude, right now all I want to do is cultivate, you know? I don't have a single distracting thought, not even a hint of romance. When I reach level 30, before you become a Soul Master, I'll beat you up and then I'll think about all that."

Wang Dong rolled his eyes. He had also sparred with Huo Yuhao several times in the past two months. Unfortunately, he had never won a single time on the Soul Arena, even after he had taken out his second martial soul. Huo Yuhao had still managed to knock him away with a broken katana.

Huo Yuhao stroked his chin thoughtfully. It seemed that Wang Dong had started cultivating every spare moment around that time as well.

This bastard has been training so diligently just to beat me up?

Huo Yuhao felt a chill run down his spine. Had he bullied Wang Dong a little too much in the past two months?

He felt that he hadn't really bullied Wang Dong much. At most, he would scratch Wang Dong's head when he was half asleep, and beat him up every time Wang Dong challenged him to a fight. Other than that, he hadn't done anything else.

Seeing Wang Dong already fantasizing about how to beat him up, Huo Yuhao had a very bad feeling.

"Hey, class monitor, vice class monitor, shall we discuss our strategy for the freshman competition?"

After Wang Yan announced that there would be no more lectures and everyone could choose to discuss freely, Xiao Xiao immediately brought over a stool and moved closer.

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong turned their heads in unison, and Wang Dong glanced at Xiao Xiao with a hint of helplessness: "The three of us have already teamed up, and we still need to discuss strategies? Isn't that a bit unfair to those teams where three people can't even gather four spirit rings?"

"Although Wang Dong has never been very bright, I agree with him this time."

Huo Yuhao nodded in agreement with Wang Dong's statement, only to be met with a fierce glare from Wang Dong.

"That's true, but there are quite a few strong opponents in other classes as well. I've done my homework on this. For example, in Class 9 of the freshmen, it seems that someone is already a three-ring Soul Master."

Xiao Xiao proudly took out a stack of documents from her storage soul tool. She had put in a lot of effort to chat with Wang Dong a little longer.

"I know that. The team with the strongest momentum in Class 9 should be the team with Ning Tian and Wu Feng. It is said that they have found a player named Nanmen Yun'er as a teammate. One Soul Master and two Great Soul Masters, they are indeed difficult to deal with."

"As for the top teams in other classes, I know a little about them. For example, in Class 7, there are twin sisters who seem to have a spirit fusion skill. One of the sisters is named Lan Susu, and the other is named Lan Luoluo. That's about it. I can't remember exactly."

Huo Yuhao frowned slightly and revealed all the information he knew, almost making Xiao Xiao's jaw drop.

"Wait, class monitor, where did you get such confidential information from?"
