But Xu Zihuang doesn't seem to be acting any different now.

"Could it be because of that exotic Cymbidium goeringii?" This thought suddenly popped into his mind, and he looked up at the increasingly vibrant Mo Xue Ji blooming on the balcony.

Just then, Xu Zihuang's voice suddenly rang out behind him.

"What are you doing?"

"Huh? It's nothing." Tuoba Yu was startled, but he didn't dwell on his question any further. In any case, the increased cultivation speed would only benefit him.

Xu Zihuang got up and took out his school uniform from the wardrobe.

"Hurry up and get to class, you're going to be late."

As he spoke, a hint of seriousness flashed across his deep purple eyes.

The biggest drawback of living in a dormitory is that it's easy to expose your secrets. He got along well with Tuoba Yu and had a good impression of him, but that didn't mean he could unconditionally trust him.

A similar situation occurred in the dormitory where Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong lived.

"Class is about to start, are you still going to lie down?" Wang Dong stood by Huo Yuhao's bed, looking down at Huo Yuhao, whose eyes were wide open.

After spending time together yesterday, his relationship with Huo Yuhao has improved considerably.

Huo Yuhao actually woke up in the middle of the night, but when he thought of what happened last night, he was so resentful that he wanted to grind his teeth to dust.

You look down on me from the bottom of your heart, just like those other people. Your second spirit ring is at the thousand-year level; which powerful family are you from?

Huo Yuhao stared calmly at Wang Dong, inwardly mocking himself.

After thinking it over late into the night, he realized that only by enduring hardship could he have a chance to avenge his mother. He had to stay at Shrek Academy.

There's nothing we can do; he has poor talent, low cultivation level, and no background.

But one day, I will make you pay the price.

A barking dog doesn't bite. This saying perfectly describes Huo Yuhao at this moment.

Chapter 75 Rumors and Apologies

Because of the time constraints, Xu Zihuang and Tuoba Yu only went to the cafeteria to buy some ready-made breakfast.

Several large meat buns and a glass of milk. The buns have thin skins and plenty of filling, and the meat comes from a spirit beast called the Silver-striped Deer, which has a tender and refreshing texture.

After tens of thousands of years of development, humans have become capable of artificially raising spirit beasts. Of course, the vast majority of those that can be raised in captivity are gentle spirit beasts. The Silver-striped Deer is a typical example of this.

The meat buns are inexpensive, costing one Silver Soul Coin each, making them a top choice for many students' breakfast.

The two ate as they walked, and when they arrived at the freshman teaching building, there were still almost fifteen minutes before class.

Classes 1 through 3 of the new students are on the first floor, classes 4 through 7 are on the second floor, and the remaining classes 8 through 10 are on the third floor.

Walking up the stairs towards the classroom of Class 9, there were already many people in the other classrooms along the way, and the place was filled with all kinds of noise.

Right in front of Xu Zihuang and Tuoba Yu, three dashing male students dressed in white freshman uniforms were chatting enthusiastically.

"Sichen, Xiangyue, have you heard about Yu Tianhuang from Class 9 of the freshmen class knocking out a female classmate with one punch?"

"I think I heard someone from Class 9 of the freshmen mention that the female student's name was Wu Feng. I heard she was quite pretty."

These words immediately earned him eye rolls from his two companions.

"Damn it, Si Chen, can you stop being so lewd? That's not the point, okay?" the first male student said with a look of disgust.

"That Wu Feng's martial soul is a red dragon, and his soul power has reached level 25. He was so confident in his strength that he wanted to challenge Yu Tianhuang, but he ended up getting knocked out with a single punch. If it were me, I'd probably be too embarrassed to continue attending class."

"Huh? The version I heard is different from this one. Wasn't it said that Wu Feng took the initiative to confess his feelings to Yu Tianhuang and was rejected, so he got angry and embarrassed?" Si Chen, who had been looked down upon by the two of them before, asked in surprise.

Xiangyue, who hadn't spoken until now, couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Isn't it said that Yu Tianhuang likes to beat women?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Xu Zihuang, who was following behind the three, almost spat out the milk he was drinking.

The rumors are getting more and more outrageous.

Tuoba Yu, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but tease Xu Zihuang.

"Looks like you've become famous at the academy this time."

Xu Zihuang glanced at Tuoba Yu speechlessly, then went up the stairs to the third floor of the freshman teaching building. He happened to see the three male students who had been talking about him earlier enter the classroom of Freshman Class 10.

This time, Xu Zihuang and Tuoba Yu didn't enter the classroom right as the bell rang, just like yesterday. Although there were many people in the classroom, there were still empty seats.

After demonstrating his abilities, the male students in the class became very friendly towards him, and even showed some respect.

The strong prevail; this is an unchanging truth in the world of Soul Masters. They may not be completely convinced of Xu Zihuang's abilities, but they wouldn't be foolish enough to be the first to stick their neck out.

Even Wu Feng, whose cultivation level was second only to Yu Tianhuang and Ning Tian in the class, was knocked unconscious with a single punch. Their strength was simply not worth mentioning.

"Squad leader, over here!" A clear and pleasant voice came from not far away. Xu Zihuang looked up and saw it was Ya Lu, the one who had given Tuoba Yu a hard time in the actual combat.

A bright smile graced her pretty face, revealing two mischievous little tiger teeth.

He also pointed to the empty seat behind her, clearly wanting Xu Zihuang to sit there. Next to her sat Nanmen Yun'er, her soft, dark green eyes also looking towards Xu Zihuang, offering a polite smile.

Although it has only been a few days since the start of the school year, the students have already subtly formed some small groups.

Xu Zihuang and Tuoba Yu, Ning Tian and Wu Feng, as well as Nanmen Yun'er and Ya Lu, etc.

When people have only known each other for a short time, they naturally become closer to those they are more familiar with.

Among the female trainees, Nanmen Yun'er and Ya Lu are definitely outstanding in appearance. One is gentle and graceful, and the other is lively and cute. When the two sit together, they are easy to catch the eye.

"Let's go sit over there," Xu Zihuang said to Tuoba Yu beside him.

Tuoba Yu looked at Ya Lu, his body instinctively shrinking back. But fortunately, after a day of rest, he had mostly recovered. He wouldn't have such a strong stress reaction anymore.

Just as Xu Zihuang was about to take a step, two figures blocked his way.

"Yu Tianhuang, can we talk?"

Xu Zihuang frowned as he looked at the two tall girls standing in front of him. Who else could they be but Ning Tian and Wu Feng?

Tuoba Yu understood and made way for the three of them, giving them ample space. His practiced skill was almost heartbreaking.

Ning Tian's large, aquamarine eyes stared intently at Xu Zihuang, their reflections as clear as a still lake. Beside her, Wu Feng kept her head down, her hands nervously fidgeting with the hem of her skirt.

"Okay." Xu Zihuang's brows slowly relaxed, and he responded softly.

Ning Tian smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"Let's go to the rooftop then."

As Ning Tian, ​​Wu Feng, and Xu Zihuang walked out of the classroom one after another, the people in the classroom immediately started to cheer loudly.

Yu Tianhuang and Ning Tian, ​​as the two with the highest cultivation levels in the class, have always been the focus of everyone's attention.

The two of them standing together did indeed look quite well-matched.

Ya Lu's smile vanished, and she bit her thumb in frustration.

Because Wu Feng frequently addressed Ning Tian as "Young Master" in class and made no attempt to conceal it, almost everyone knew that Ning Tian came from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Although she and Nanmen Yun'er have powerful backgrounds, how can they compare to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, an ancient sect with a history of ten thousand years?

This is a school that even Shrek Academy, known as the number one academy on the continent, has to give it some respect.

The rooftop of the freshman teaching building.

Although it's called a rooftop, it's actually quite spacious.

The temperature wasn't very high on a spring morning, but as the warm sunlight slanted in, the gentle, refreshing feeling instantly dispelled any slight chill.

Xu Zihuang stopped and calmly asked, "What do you want to say?"

With her back to the rising sun, Ning Tian's short golden hair reflected a halo of light, further highlighting her fair and delicate skin. She reached out her jade-like hand and gently nudged Wu Feng, who had been keeping his head down.

Noticing Ning Tian's serious expression, Wu Feng felt a pang of grievance, but he still took a step forward, bent down, and shouted loudly at Xu Zihuang.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have provoked you before!"

Xu Zihuang withdrew his gaze with little interest and then turned and left.

"If it's just because of this, then there's no need to waste any more time. I'm not so petty as to hold a grudge over something like this. Just don't bother me for no reason in the future."

Watching Xu Zihuang's retreating figure, Wu Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Ning Tian's gaze, on the other hand, was filled with even more admiration.

Outstanding looks, exceptional talent, and a broad mind. Isn't she the perfect choice?

Chapter 76 Absolute Suppression of Martial Souls?

Xu Zihuang returned to the classroom of Class 9, just as the bell rang for class.

Ning Tian and Wu Feng followed Xu Zihuang into the classroom, and everyone's expressions became subtle upon seeing them. Many of the more reserved students even wore knowing smiles.

However, the crowd did not make a fuss again, because a middle-aged male teacher holding a lesson plan followed closely behind and came to the podium in the classroom.

The middle-aged male teacher rested his hands on the podium and chuckled at the crowd.

"My name is Wang Yan, and I will be your teacher for theory classes from now on. Don't be so reserved. My teaching style has always been to treat everyone as friends."

As he spoke, he spotted Xu Zihuang in the classroom.

Xu Zihuang was too lazy to make Tuoba Yu get up, so he simply had Tuoba Yu move a seat inside and sat down near the corridor himself.

Tuoba Yu was very worried about this.

After all, Ya Lu was right in front of him.

"The morning lesson is about identifying different types of spirit beasts. I won't go into too much detail. Let's begin the lesson. Spirit beasts on the continent..." Wang Yan looked very approachable, but he was still a teacher, so the students didn't dare to be negligent and quickly opened their textbooks.

However, it is unknown how many people were truly absorbed in Wang Yan's lectures.

Many students, due to their family background in academic studies, do not pay much attention to such theoretical courses.

Xu Zihuang rested his chin on his right wrist, his mind wandering. He had always had an excellent memory, and with the awakening of his spiritual martial soul, the Golden Eye, he could almost never forget anything he saw.

During his exile, these books were the only things he used to pass the time. Their contents were already deeply imprinted in his mind.

He has always been very resistant to doing useless work.

Through the open window, Xu Zihuang thoughtfully gazed at the clearly visible outline of the Soul Guidance Department building in the distance.
