The Evil Soul Master is actually myself

Famous at Shrek

Chapter 42 New Student Enrollment

The special admissions office doesn't have a permanent admissions point here; you have to go further in. Passing by the Sea God Lake, Huo Yuhao stopped, marveling at the ten magnificent sculptures.

"Those ten people are the three founders of Shrek Academy and the original Shrek Seven Devils. Let's go, there's nothing to see here," Su Ming introduced.

Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze, nodded, and quickly followed Ah Ming.

The receptionist at the special admissions office was a pretty young woman. When she took the platinum card from Su Ming, she looked at them in surprise and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go ask the teacher in charge."

This platinum card was given to him by Xian Lin'er, presumably representing his status as an elder of the Sea God Pavilion. It would be easy for him to arrange a special admission for Xian Lin'er.

Soon the young woman came out, followed by a middle-aged bald teacher. He glanced at the two of them and said lazily, "Come over and register your age, identity, and martial spirit."

The bald teacher was used to people getting in through connections; after all, Shrek Academy had a freshman assessment in three months, and anyone who failed would be dismissed.

Those who are truly capable will naturally stay, so why should he make things difficult for others? Besides, those who get in through connections have incredibly powerful backgrounds.

The bald teacher pinched the bones of the two men and recorded their ages.

"Huo Yuhao, bone age 11 years and six months, soul power level 11, martial soul... hmm? His original martial soul is the Spirit Eye?"

"Su Ming, bone age 11 years and three months, soul power... Hiss! Level 34? Agility-type battle soul master, martial soul Netherworld Black Cat."

When Huo Yuhao learned that "Brother Ming" was actually a few months younger than him, he felt strange and actually struggled with the way he addressed him. Before, he felt comfortable calling Su Ming by his steady demeanor, mature speech, and tall stature, but now he found it a little hard to say.

As the bald teacher read aloud, the receptionist took notes, and gradually his voice became surprised.

He looked at the two of them with a strange expression, not understanding why they would choose the back door when they could easily pass through through the proper channels.

"I'm too lazy to queue up, and the assessment is a waste of time," Su Ming explained, understanding the teacher's look.

The bald, middle-aged teacher suddenly realized and nodded, saying, "Oh, then, tuition is ten gold coins per person per semester, excluding food expenses. No refunds will be given for any reason if you drop out midway through the semester. Have you thought it through?"

"Huh?" Huo Yuhao was shocked when he heard about the tuition fee, but Su Ming didn't care at all and gave him twenty gold coins to pay for Huo Yuhao.

The bald teacher accepted the money without hesitation; he was just asking casually, and people like him who get in through connections are never short of money. He asked the receptionist to prepare four sets of school uniforms and two white badges representing first-year students.

After waiting a moment, Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment and then quietly said to him, "Amin, I'll pay you back the tuition later."

Su Ming nodded upon hearing this, without saying anything. He knew he had to respect other people's self-esteem.

The young lady came out quickly and gave the four sets of school uniforms to the two students, and the sizes were definitely right.

"Here are your keys. Two people share a dorm room. The freshman dorm is the white one." The bald teacher lazily handed the keys to the two students.

Su Ming accepted the gift and nodded his thanks.

The two then headed straight for the freshman dormitory building. Su Ming quickened his pace, somewhat impatient. If he wasn't mistaken, Old Mu should be "sweeping the grounds" downstairs in the freshman dormitory building.

After finally turning the corner, he arrived at the freshman dormitory building. The first thing he saw was an elderly man who looked very old sitting there.

The old man was dressed in a gray cloth robe, his face wrinkled enough to trap more than a dozen flies at once, his eyes were dim and yellow, his eyelids drooping, giving him the appearance of someone nearing the end of his life. The sunlight between the buildings shone just right on him, and the reclining chair looked quite comfortable.

After glancing at him, Su Ming calmly walked past the old man, nodding naturally to signal Binance to go up to the dormitory building.

Huo Yuhao, who followed from the back door, was much more polite. He respectfully greeted the old man and then quickened his pace to catch up with Su Ming.

"Amin, wait for me!" he said with a hint of complaint.

Su Ming glanced at Huo Yuhao, thinking, "I didn't dare to breathe loudly just now. If I don't hurry up, am I just waiting to die?"

Having a naturally evil martial soul walk right under the nose of Elder Mu, the Holy Dragon of Light, was incredibly exciting.

He did want to learn from Elder Mu. He believed that Elder Mu had already seen through many things at his level, and the important thing was that people were compatible with him. However, Su Ming planned to approach him in a different capacity.

Su Ming found the two's dormitory, which looked quite old, with dust covering the floor.

"You might be living here alone from now on," Su Ming said after helping Huo Yuhao clean the house.

"Why? Where do you live?" Huo Yuhao asked in surprise.

“I have my own bedroom, which is quite comfortable,” Su Ming said, glancing around. He had asked Xian Lin’er for a luxury dormitory a long time ago; he had too many secrets and wasn’t suited to living with someone.

"I see." Huo Yuhao was a little reluctant, but he didn't say anything.

Su Ming waited there for a while and then left. He was a little surprised that Wang Dong did not come. Thinking of what happened to the Emperor Beast before, he guessed that it was because its divine sense was severely damaged and it needed to recuperate.

He had originally been looking forward to Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, wanting to personally experience its power. Now, however, he had to give up, as he had one less opponent.

After the two finished tidying up their dorm rooms, they met up to look at the bulletin board and find out which class they belonged to.

"Class 1, Grade 1? Class teacher Zhou Yi?"

Huo Yuhao carefully searched for the two names, and finally his eyes locked onto the first column. He said happily, "Amin, we're in the same class!"

Su Ming was somewhat surprised and sighed, "I didn't expect it would be Zhou Yi who taught us."

"Who is Teacher Zhou Yi? Do you know her, Ah Ming?" Huo Yuhao asked curiously.

"She's just a crazy woman, and her teaching level isn't that high. Her only redeeming quality is her strictness," Su Ming said with some disdain.

The original novel's training of Soul Masters consisted of running, at most with added weights. Su Ming was speechless. This kind of physical training was far less efficient than practicing boxing. To make matters worse, Zhou Yi was the kind of teacher who was very decisive and only had free time when her students completed the tasks she assigned.

In Su Ming's opinion, this was a complete waste of his time.

"Is that so?" Huo Yuhao was completely baffled.

"Let's go, you go buy some groceries and grab a bite to eat, I'll slip away first," Su Ming said.

"Oh, where are you going?"

"Greetings to an elder." Su Ming was going to find Xian Lin'er, and it was only proper for him to visit an elder before going to Shrek Academy.

At the same time, a beautiful young girl walked slowly towards Shrek's magnificent school gate.

This is a girl wearing white trousers and a white top. She looks to be about the same age as a first-year student, but she is exceptionally beautiful. Her long silver hair falls to her waist, looking smooth and delicate. On her slender neck, there is an exquisite and flawless face that is irresistible.

Her fair and delicate cheeks shimmered with a soft luster like jade, her large, bright eyes, as sparkling as amethyst, were full of vitality, her slightly upturned nose was exquisite and petite, and her slightly pursed cherry lips gave her an appearance that inspired endless praise.

As for her figure, it is equally amazing and flawless. Although some parts have not yet started to develop due to her age, she is already a natural beauty.

Moreover, this girl seemed to possess a strange aura, like a lotus flower emerging from the mud unsullied, transcending the mundane world, like a fairy, and her steps also had a special rhythm, coordinated like a beautiful dance.

The ethereal beauty's arrival drew the attention of all the students and even the upperclassmen reporting at the school gate, their eyes filled with amazement.

Gu Yuena frowned slightly, somewhat displeased, and strode to the registration area. Her cold voice startled the senior students who were registering.

"I'm here to report for duty."

Chapter Forty-Three Arrangements

Xianlin'er is the dean of the Soul Guidance Department and has a separate office in Shrek Academy's outer courtyard. Su Ming went directly to see her.

Hurry!

Su Ming walked through the antique brown-red corridor and came to a heavy and luxurious door at the end. He raised his hand and knocked a few times, and immediately a piercing, deep knocking sound rang out in the quiet corridor.

"Please come in!" A soft female voice came from inside after a short while.

Su Ming slowly pushed open the heavy door, revealing a spacious and clean office, comparable to a lobby. However, there was very little furniture inside.

There was only a row of tall, heavy bookshelves, two dark black goose feather sofas with gold trim, a small coffee table, and a rustic, heavy wooden desk.

The exquisitely designed and convenient desk faces a large, tall window, flanked by layers of heavy, burgundy velvet curtains. Sunlight streams in, making the room warm and bright.

On the desk sat a beautiful, mature woman, her delicate, fair hands holding a long quill pen, writing and drawing on fine parchment.

The woman had a mature and refined face, with her long, flowing black hair cascading down her back. She was tall and voluptuous, with fair and radiant skin. Even the few wrinkles around her eyes and brows did not detract from her beauty; on the contrary, the passage of time had made her appear even more elegant and intellectual.

She seemed troubled by something, her brows furrowed. Suddenly, she heard someone visiting her and looked up as if awakened, glancing towards the door. There she saw a young boy quietly slipping in.

Against the backdrop of the tall, heavy, brown-red wooden door, the black-haired boy looked small and particularly cute.

"Is it Amin?" Xianlin'er exclaimed in surprise. She stood up and moved gracefully to Su Ming, gently embracing him and affectionately stroking his head.

"Yes, Sister Lin'er, I came to see you as soon as I arrived. I also brought you a gift." Su Ming said obediently, taking out some fruit from his spatial soul tool and handing it to the beautiful woman.

"Alright, alright, little guy, you've grown so tall. How about you come and study with me in a few years?" Xian Lin'er said kindly, accepting Su Ming's gift. She looked at the handsome young man and liked him more and more, already regarding him as her little grandson.

"You sit aside for a moment and wait for me to finish these matters. Sigh, these past few days have been giving me a headache," Xian Lin'er said helplessly, rubbing her forehead with her jade-like hand.

Su Ming sat sensibly to the side, chatting casually with Xian Lin'er.

The young man then mentioned Huo Yuhao, saying, "Sister Xianlin'er, I came here specifically to recommend a talent to you. Haven't you been worried about the lack of top-tier talent in the Soul Guidance Department these past few years? I have a prodigy here who is particularly suited for the Soul Guidance Department!"

Seeing the boy's confident demeanor, Xian Lin'er raised an eyebrow and said with interest, "It's rare for a little guy to be so thoughtful. Tell me who it is, and if possible, my Soul Guidance Department will train him."

"His name is Huo Yuhao, and his martial soul is the Spirit Eye, but these are nothing to mention. What's truly terrifying is his first soul skill." Su Ming explained Huo Yuhao's abilities in detail.

Having experienced it firsthand, Su Ming was indeed astonished by the million-year soul skill of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and put aside his original disdain for the description of this soul skill in the original work.

To put it simply, it's equivalent to the Byakugan's 360-degree unobstructed vision + the Rinnegan's shared vision + the martial arts eye's intuitive prediction.

Of course, he can achieve these effects with his Soul Saint-level mental power, but it is still a world of difference compared to a God-level Soul Skill that can share hundreds of thousands of troops.

Although the current range of the shared spirit detection skill is only about fifty meters, the spirit skill can evolve, so the future looks promising!

Su Ming recalled how Huo Yuhao later developed X-ray vision, scanning vision, and even 3D stereoscopic playback effects, and felt extremely envious. It could be said that most of Huo Yuhao's achievements in the Soul Guidance System were due to this Soul Skill.

Upon hearing the effect of this soul skill, Xian Lin'er's beautiful eyes showed surprise. She immediately said, "I want this person in the Soul Guidance Department. Even if he fails the freshman assessment, I will protect him."

“No, we don’t need to wait until the class assignments. I can give him the status of a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department right now, as long as he’s willing to come.” Xian Lin’er stood up and paced back and forth excitedly.

She recalled her proposed "Extreme Individual Soldier" plan, thinking that with Huo Yuhao's participation, there might be some hope for its success.

"Sister Xianlin'er, don't worry. I'll talk to him when I get back, and I'm sure he'll be very willing," Su Ming reassured her.

"Little one, you're truly my lucky star!" The beautiful woman happily hugged the boy.

Su Ming was enveloped in the soft warmth, feeling a little embarrassed by the mature fragrance, and muttered softly, "I'm not young anymore."

"Yes, he's grown up, he's a big boy now." Xian Lin'er teased, looking at the little boy who barely reached her chest.

It's been a long time since we last met. Xianlin'er has been living a lonely life these past few years, and it's rare for her to enjoy family time, so we chatted for quite a while.

That night, she wanted Su Ming to stay and sleep with her, but the boy politely declined. Regardless of gender, apart from his sister, he was really not used to sleeping with others. He always felt that a bed with two people was too cramped and he couldn't move around freely.

Moreover, Xian Lin'er had an incredibly attractive figure and treated him like a child, so Su Ming decided to slip away.

Back in my own luxurious dorm room, I took a nice shower and lay in bed. Suddenly, I missed my sister and couldn't help but sigh, "I still have to spend eleven more months at the academy. It's going to be tough!"
