Chapter 115 Don't Eat, Don't Eat (Daily 10,000 words)

Shrek Academy's assessment area is located next to the Soul Fighting Area, and it is much larger than this area, which is specifically used for paid fighting.

For these freshmen from the foreign language department, this is a stage for those with exceptional talent to showcase their abilities, but it is also a nightmare for those who are not good enough.

After all, every year a number of trainees are eliminated because they cannot pass the assessment.

Of course, Zhou Yi's class usually doesn't need to worry about this much. After all, if Zhou Yi is lucky, half of the students in her class will be left, and if she's unlucky, it's not impossible for only twenty or thirty out of a hundred students to be left.

Under this philosophy that "if I kill myself first, no one else can kill me," Zhou Yi's class did indeed have a much higher college entrance rate. After all, the academy's highest dropout rate was, in Zhou Yi's eyes, just a starting point.

Except for students who behave extremely poorly during the freshman year or have special circumstances, class teachers generally do not easily expel students. Instead, they give them a chance to be assessed. The reason is simple: the elimination rounds are already intense enough, and there is no need to add more burdens to the students.

The reason for such an intense elimination tournament is that the dark clouds of war are becoming increasingly solidified and the times are becoming more and more turbulent, so it is necessary to select the best of the best and put more pressure on the students.

But precisely because of this, homeroom teachers should show more compassion and become a support for their students, rather than another source of harm for them.

The assessment area is oval-shaped, unlike the Soul Fighting area which resembles an enclosed stadium; it is an open space. It is surrounded by a low wall, and the interior is divided into sections by partitions that can be disassembled at any time to change the size of the areas.

Every year, the freshman assessment is the time when the assessment area is divided into the most regions. This is not only because there are many freshmen, but also because the freshmen's destructive power and attack range are limited, so a large area is enough for them to display their abilities.

The entire assessment area covers approximately 20,000 square meters and has now been divided into fifty zones, each about 400 square meters in size and 20 meters in length. This is sufficient for the new students, who generally only have cultivation levels of the first or second ring.

There was only one assessment session in the afternoon. Perhaps to allow the new students to get used to it, the college sent fifty teachers to conduct the assessment and registration in fifty different areas.

The teams competing in today's assessment were drawn into groups at noon to ensure that teams from the same class do not meet in the next ten round-robin matches.

In the end, a total of 330 groups of students, totaling 990 people, participated in the new student assessment. Of these 310 groups, only 155 groups were able to stay and officially become first-year students to continue their studies, while the rest were eliminated.

Huo Yuhao and his two companions were assigned to the 33rd district. After having lunch together, they returned to their dormitory, meditated for a while, and then went to the district. The district divisions were easy to find, with clear signs for each district. Soon, they found their district.

Students from other classes who were also participating in the competition had arrived. Some looked nervous, while others were eager to compete. They were all eleven or twelve years old and couldn't hide anything from each other. When they looked at each other, their hostility was very clear.

After all, only half of them are likely to stay, and although there are ten rounds of assessment, each one is crucial to their future.

Huo Yuhao subconsciously touched his storage soul tool, a look of regret appearing in his eyes.

The prohibition of using soul tools during the freshman assessment greatly reduces the combat power that Huo Yuhao can unleash. This is not to say that Huo Yuhao is so dependent on soul tools, but rather that Huo Yuhao's already exaggerated combat power can become even more exaggerated with the amplification of soul tools.

"Attention all new students, please proceed to the assessment area immediately. Those who have not entered within ten minutes will be considered to have forfeited their participation."

A loud announcement rang out, and most of the freshmen's expressions turned serious and solemn.

The first test that would determine their fate was about to begin, and all the freshmen, including Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao, were somewhat excited.

The teacher in charge of the assessment in District 33 was none other than Ms. Mu Jin from Class 9 of the freshmen. However, Ms. Mu Jin was not smiling as usual. She simply nodded slightly to Huo Yuhao and then walked up to the three of them and said in a deep voice.

"Hello, my surname is Mu, you can call me Teacher Mu Jin. I will be in charge of the Soul Battle in District 33 for the next few days. I would like to remind you again that it is strictly forbidden to injure or cripple your opponents during the assessment, unless there are special circumstances."

Immediately afterwards, Teacher Mujin turned and left, repeating the same thing to the team opposite District 33.

As she spoke, she opened the folder in her hand:

"First round, first assessment: Class 1 freshmen: Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao; Class 3 freshmen: Ouyang Junyi, Chen Junfeng, Zhao Haochen. You may enter the arena now. Please take your positions in the corners. You may release your martial spirits only after I announce the start of the competition. Enter the arena."

The three students from Class 3 of the freshmen class were all boys, and they were all quite good-looking. The tallest of them all was Ouyang Junyi, and he was also the most handsome.

Chen Junfeng, standing next to him, was not short but very thin. At the very back was Zhao Haochen, a chubby little boy with a round belly and a憨厚 (honest and simple) smile.

Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao strictly implemented the first tactic, namely the "close the door and let Wang Dong go" tactic, with Wang Dong walking at the front of the group, while Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao took positions on both sides.

Even after overworking his brain, Wang Dong still couldn't change his position as the tactical executor, so he could only obediently walk at the front of the group.

Seeing that both sides were already in position, Mu Jin spoke without hesitation: "The assessment begins."

As soon as the words were spoken, the three students from Class 3 released their martial spirits. Wang Dong even took out the Clear Sky Hammer. The small, black hammer emitted a faint dark light under the sunlight, while Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao stood there motionless.

good chance!

Zhao Haochen, who was standing at the very back, suddenly brightened up and shouted, "Come on, my big chicken leg!"

A yellow soul ring rippled around his feet, and two beams of yellow light shone in his hands. Instantly, two braised chicken legs appeared in his grasp, and he instinctively wanted to hand them to the two people beside him.

"Don't eat it! Don't eat it!"

When Wang Dong saw that Zhao Haochen was still putting out chicken legs, his brain instantly switched to fighting spirit mode, and he rushed forward in one step.

For these junior Soul Masters whose physical abilities had generally only been trained in running, Wang Dong's Soul Venerable-level speed was still a bit too overpowered. The twenty-meter-long Soul Arena was almost like close combat in Wang Dong's eyes. In one stride, he actually overtook two people and rushed to Zhao Haochen's front.

"Glug."

Seeing Wang Dong suddenly appear in front of him, Zhao Haochen swallowed hard: "I'm not eating anymore, don't hit me."
