Chapter 47 Student Loans, A Shallow Connection with the Tang Clan
Time passed by, and soon the students in Class One were divided into groups.
After Mu Jin's thorough review and questioning, the team members left one by one until only Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Huo Yuhao remained.
By now, Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao had already absorbed the effects of the second and third Xuan Shui Pills. Wang Dong'er gave the last Xuan Shui Pill she had left to Huo Yuhao.
After all, Huo Yuhao is now loyal to her and is doing things for her. You can't just make the horse run without feeding it.
Wang Dong'er has now acquired her third spirit ring and become a Spirit Master.
However, she did not obtain her third spirit ring with the help of Shrek Academy. Instead, she secretly returned to the Clear Sky Sect and obtained her third spirit ring there only after confirming that the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape had not discovered that she was not Tang Wutong.
The two soul beasts still believe that Tang San's ritual has been successful, completely unaware that Tang Wutong was already possessed when Tang San's soul was split. Even if the ritual is successful, she will no longer be the original Tang Wutong.
"Alright, you three are the last group." Mu Jin pulled out three sheets of paper from the stacks, glanced at them, and said, "Wang Dong'er, your training direction is offensive, right?"
The second one followed, "Xiao Xiao, regarding cultivation direction... what is meant by control/support system?"
As if he had anticipated Mu Jin's question, Xiao Xiao said loudly, "Teacher Mu Jin, my martial soul has both control effects and can be used as a support tool."
"The Soul-Suppressing Cauldron? I know you have your reasons, but the cultivation direction submitted to the academy can only be one direction: either control or support. If the inclination is scattered and disorganized, not only will the academy's teaching be inconvenient, but your future cultivation will also be incomplete, which would be a waste of your talent."
"Then let's choose the control type." Xiao Xiao did not reveal her second martial soul, the Nine Phoenixes' Auspicious Flute, to Mu Jin.
"Okay." Mu Jin nodded in agreement, picked up her pen and crossed out the two auxiliary words from the five words on Xiao Xiao's paper.
"The last one, Huo Yuhao." Mu Jin looked at Huo Yuhao.
Shrek Academy admits different students through special admissions almost every year, but being admitted through special admissions does not guarantee that one can stay at the academy.
It is said that when Huo Yuhao first entered the academy, he only had eleven levels of soul power and did not have a letter of recommendation, which was far from meeting the academy's admission requirements.
"If I remember correctly, your martial soul is called Spirit Eye, a body-based martial soul. Are you sure you want to choose control as your cultivation path?"
Huo Yuhao nodded. "Teacher Mu Jin, I'm sure."
"Okay, as long as you have a decision in mind, I won't interfere with your decision." Mu Jin put away all three pieces of paper.
"Wang Dong'er, you are the strongest person in Class 1 right now, and the only one with a three-ring Soul Master. Since you have chosen to team up with Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao, you should pay attention to the three-ring teams from other classes."
Now, Class One is my own achievement. Mu Jin can't compare to anyone else, but she can't be inferior to Zhou Yi. So I might as well share the information I know.
"Ning Tian, a freshman in Class 9, is a special recruit sent by the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. He possesses the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul. I think you should be familiar with this Martial Soul. Among the ancestors of the first generation of Shrek Academy's Seven Devils, the sixth-ranked Nine Treasure Douluo, Ning Rongrong, was an ancestor of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda? But aren't support-type weapon spirit masters usually slower to cultivate than battle spirit masters? How come she's already reached the Spirit Venerable level?" Xiao Xiao asked.
"It is said that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School wants to recreate the glory of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda from ten thousand years ago, and has been nurturing Ning Tian since she was a child. Sending her to Shrek Academy this time may also be an attempt to emulate the story of the Nine Treasure Douluo from ten thousand years ago," Mu Jin explained.
"There's also Xie Huanyue from Class 2 of the freshmen. His martial soul is a very rare defensive beast martial soul called Pipi Elephant. I'm not worried about him; Wang Dong'er's martial soul is enough to counter him. But since it's a team battle, Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao, you two need to be extra careful with his two teammates."
"Finally, there's Dai Huabin, the class monitor of Class 5, the freshmen."
Upon hearing this name, Huo Yuhao suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with a chilling crimson.
Because of his extremely poor talent and physical condition, Huo Yuhao devoted himself to cultivation after receiving help from Wang Dong'er, and had no time for socializing.
Aside from Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao, whom Huo Yuhao was relatively familiar with, he could only vaguely recall the names of the others, and naturally did not know that Dai Huabin was in Class 5 of the freshmen.
Upon suddenly learning of Dai Huabin's news, Huo Yuhao was so overwhelmed with emotion that he almost couldn't stand up straight.
"What's wrong, Huo Yuhao?" Noticing Huo Yuhao's unusual behavior, Mu Jin had no choice but to stop and ask.
"No, it's nothing. Teacher Mu Jin, I probably just had an upset stomach." Huo Yuhao lowered his head, trying his best to calm himself down.
"Alright, I'll make it short." Mu Jin nodded. "Dai Huabin is the young master of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion in the Star Luo Empire, and he is also a special admission student."
"The White Tiger Duke's Mansion?" Xiao Xiao glanced at Huo Yuhao and finally understood why Huo Yuhao had lost his composure earlier.
After all, according to Huo Yuhao's own account, he had suffered hardships in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion since childhood. Even his mother was afflicted with an incurable disease. One of his most direct enemies in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion was Dai Huabin, the young master who kicked him and his mother to the point of near death and almost caused their deaths on the spot.
Huo Yuhao clenched his fists as he listened to Mu Jin recount Dai Huabin's story.
There was only one person he didn't want to lose, even if it meant relying on Wang Dong'er's strength.
"...Alright, the team your team needs to pay the most attention to is the team led by these three people. As for the others, I believe you are capable of handling them."
"However, don't let your guard down just because you're strong. I still have high hopes for you. It would be best if you could defeat Dai Huabin from Class 5 and give Zhou Yi a good slap in the face for me."
Knowing that Wang Dong'er and Zhou Yi didn't get along, Mu Jin didn't hold back in her words, "Besides, the prize for this champion is very generous."
"Alright, go back and get ready. Registration starts tomorrow morning, and the new student assessment will be in the afternoon. Make sure you're in good spirits."
They had just left the classroom and hadn't gone far when Tang Ya and Bei Bei suddenly appeared from the woods.
"Xiao Yuhao, it's been so long since I've seen you selling fish," Tang Ya said first, sounding rather impatient.
Huo Yuhao scratched his head sheepishly. "I'm sorry, Teacher Xiaoya. I've been working hard on my cultivation lately. After all, the early bird catches the worm."
"Huh? But if you don't sell fish, how will you have money to eat?" Tang Ya asked, puzzled.
"Teacher Xiaoya, don't worry. I applied for a student loan from Wang Dong'er, which is enough for me."
"Student aid...loans???"
