Although he lowered his voice deliberately, Wang Dong still heard some of it and leaned over: "Princess? What princess? Yuhao, do you know the princess?"
“I don’t know him. What does it have to do with you?” Huo Yuhao pulled his head away.
Dai Huabin threw him a gold card from behind. Huo Yuhao took it with his other hand and asked, "What is this?"
“Dividends.”
"how many?"
"two hundred."
Huo Yuhao frowned.
The two hundred Dai Huabin mentioned refers to two million gold soul coins. Although the annual turnover of all his stores is as high as seven or eight million, after deducting various miscellaneous costs, it is good to have a profit of one million or so.
"Why so many?"
"She said you needed resources for your cultivation, so she gave you some more."
"Tsk."
Huo Yuhao picked up the gold card unhappily and twirled it between his fingers.
There is never a gift without reason, favors must be repaid.
“Wow, Brother Hao, what big business did you do to make so much money? It’s equivalent to your monthly income.” Wang Dong didn’t hear the jargon between the two and thought that Huo Yuhao had suddenly made a small fortune of two hundred gold coins.
“Nothing.” Huo Yuhao threw the gold card into his belt and turned to Dai Huabin and said, “Huabin, I have a task for you.”
Dai Huabin asked: "What?"
"If anyone asks you about me these days, you have to 'accidentally' reveal some of my secrets."
Dai Huabin frowned and asked, "What secret?"
“This.” Huo Yuhao snapped his fingers. Dai Huabin suddenly felt a chill and couldn’t help but shiver.
Huo Yuhao smiled intriguingly and said, “Understood?”
"understand……"
Only Wang Dong looked suspicious.
In the afternoon, in the beast fighting area, there will be an upgrade assessment.
All the students in Grade 2 Class 1 and Class 2 were here, observing the largest area in the academy in amazement.
Being able to keep soul beasts of different years, types, and habits in the academy requires a huge investment of financial and material resources.
The spacious Colosseum and stands give it an ancient Roman feel.
There were many teachers presiding over the examination. The Dean of Studies Du Weilun and a few others stood on a high platform on one side, overlooking the entire Colosseum.
Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong stood at the front of the team as squad leaders. He was not nervous at all, but rather a little excited.
Zhou Yi looked at Huo Yuhao angrily. After listening to what Fan Yu told her, she really couldn't understand.
Soon, the test began, and Huo Yuhao was the first to step forward.
When Du Weilun saw that the first person to take the test was Huo Yuhao, he couldn't help but pay a few more glances at him. After all, such a student with unique personality left a deep impression on him.
Huo Yuhao walked to the center of the venue, and the two referees nodded to him.
The attention of other students outside the field was focused on him. Many of them had their spirit rings hunted with the help of their elders and teachers, and this was the first time they had a real one-on-one duel with a spirit beast.
One judge asked, "What's your major?"
Huo Yuhao replied: "For now, it's the control system."
Temporary? Can this thing be temporary?
The referee muttered in his heart and continued, "Choose the soul beast you want to test. The control system should reflect the word control as much as possible. This will affect your test score."
"Control?" Huo Yuhao asked, "What does it mean to embody the word control?"
The referee said with some displeasure: "Didn't your teacher explain it to you in advance? The assessment standards for your class's control department and attack department are different. The requirement for the attack department is to defeat the soul beast, and the requirement for the control department is to control the soul beast. In the end, your performance will be used as the basis for the assessment."
“Oh.” Huo Yuhao responded, “Then I will choose the strong attack system now.”
The referee was speechless for a moment. He had never seen a student suddenly change his major during the upgrade assessment.
He seemed to understand what Huo Yuhao meant by "temporarily".
"Nonsense!" another judge scolded, "How can there be a student like you who doesn't even understand the direction of his major? How did your teacher teach you?"
With a scolding, everyone's eyes seemed to turn to Wang Yan and Zhou Yi, and their eyes seemed to be questioning: How do you teach your students?
Zhou Yi buried her face in her hands, as if she was too embarrassed to see anyone.
She always felt that she had become thinner-skinned after spending so much time with Huo Yuhao. This guy always did something cruel, and he didn't feel embarrassed, but made the people around him feel embarrassed.
Huo Yuhao continued to do what he wanted: "Teacher, control and attack are inseparable. I chose the assessment of the attack system. Can't you just use the scoring criteria of the attack system?"
"This... We have never encountered such a situation before. Please wait a moment. I will go and ask for instructions."
A referee walked towards Du Weilun and started talking to him.
Zhou Yi raised his head, his expression as depressed as a broken jar.
Let him do whatever he wants. Anyway, she can’t control this guy named Huo. Whoever wants to control him can do it.
Such a good path was arranged for him, but he refused to take it and insisted on having his own ideas.
Mad!
Wang Yan was also extremely surprised. He thought to himself, "Could it be that Huo Yuhao's second spirit skill is related to attack, and is it powerful enough for him to switch to the strong attack system?"
As for the students in Class 1, they seemed to have gotten used to it and were all speechless at the moment.
Their control department leader, Brother Hao, has always had a strong offensive heart...
After a while, the referee came back and announced, "Then we will assess you according to the standards of the Strong Attack Department. Now, you will be asked to choose a soul beast. The levels range from one hundred years to the highest one thousand years, and each hundred years is a unit. Make your choice."
“Pull it up immediately.” Huo Yuhao replied calmly and decisively, “Pull out your strongest thousand-year soul beast.”
Everyone's face changed when they heard this.
The first student taking the test today chose a thousand-year-old soul beast. Regardless of whether he succeeded or not, it brought considerable pressure to the other students.
Some students in Class 2 began to laugh at Huo Yuhao for overestimating his own abilities, but their Defense Department monitor Xie Huanyue was extremely serious.
He had personally fought with Huo Yuhao and felt that Huo Yuhao was doing this with confidence.
The referee was somewhat dissatisfied with Huo Yuhao's arrogant attitude and said, "There is no strongest among the thousand-year-old soul beasts raised in the academy. The strengths of all of them are not much different."
"Oh."
Huo Yuhao said: “Then remember to find me one with a thinner neck.”
Chapter 97 One Ring or Two Rings?
"Didn't I tell you to find someone with a thinner neck?"
Huo Yuhao looked at the soul beast in front of him with a helpless look on his face.
The gate that locked up the beast opened, and a tall, thick figure slowly walked out. It was three meters tall, and every step it took on the ground was accompanied by a strong sense of oppression.
This is a giant bear, standing on two feet like a human, like a mountain of flesh.
This thousand-year-old soul beast is called the Bloodthirsty Demonic Bear. It is an extremely powerful earth-attributed soul beast.
"fool--"
The bloodthirsty demon bear growled deeply, its pale red eyes gleaming with ferocity, and the sense of oppression emanating from its body frightened the students in the audience.
Huo Yuhao stood there calmly, waiting for the bloodthirsty demon bear to approach.
The first student to be assessed chose the Millennium Soul Beast. The two referees did not dare to be careless and watched the battle attentively not far away to prevent any accidents from happening.
The bloodthirsty demon bear walked on two legs in a clumsy manner and at a slow speed, but its speed was meaningless because Huo Yuhao suddenly moved and took the initiative to run towards the bloodthirsty demon bear.
"Roar--"
Seeing that Huo Yuhao dared to rush towards it, the bloodthirsty demon bear couldn't help but feel angry and provoked. It roared, turned on all fours, and quickly ran towards Huo Yuhao, stretching out its thick bear paws to slap him hard.
In just two breaths, Huo Yuhao and the bloodthirsty demon bear were about to collide with each other.
The students and teachers watching the scene couldn't help but hold their breath, and the two referees were also on edge, ready to take action at any moment.
Is this student arrogant or confident as he goes head-on with the thousand-year-old bloodthirsty demon bear?
Huo Yuhao looked disdainful, and a hint of faint gold flashed in his ice-blue eyes, followed by a hint of enchanting emerald green.
A white soul ring rose and flickered behind him.
Huo Yuhao’s right hand opened into a claw, covered with a layer of fine hexagonal ice crystals, emitting a chilling cold air, and clamped towards the bloodthirsty demon bear’s throat like a pair of steel pliers.
The bloodthirsty demon bear had a very thick neck, so Huo Yuhao certainly couldn’t strangle it. Instead, he pierced his five hard fingers deep into its fur.
The powerful defense could not protect the throat of the bloodthirsty demon bear. The skin on its neck was easily pierced by Huo Yuhao, and the blood was frozen into bright red ice chips before it spurted out.
The bloodthirsty demon bear had a heavy body, and the impact force of its high-speed attack was naturally huge, but in the head-on collision with Huo Yuhao, it was forcefully pinned to the ground.
boom--
The body of the bloodthirsty demon bear fell heavily, and the extreme cold air continued to penetrate into its body, freezing its blood.
"Roar……"
It still wanted to activate its innate skills, but no matter how many cards it had, it had no chance to use them.
The bloodthirsty demon bear growled and stopped struggling.
Everyone off the field was silent; even the two referees were so surprised that they were speechless.
They all couldn't have imagined that Huo Yuhao could actually defeat the thousand-year-old soul beast with just a single head-on collision.
"This...this...when did Yuhao become so powerful?" Wang Dong was a little stunned, and Dai Huabin nodded solemnly.
Even if they were asked to go forward to deal with this bloodthirsty demon bear, they might not be able to kill it instantly so cleanly and efficiently.
While Zhou Yi was shocked, the anger in his heart for not being able to live up to his expectations also subsided a little.
Wang Yan opened his mouth wide and began to speak incoherently: "This, this, this..."
In the stands, Du Weilun was stunned for a moment, then frowned.
