Zhou Yi said: "Of course I am not wrong, so I don't have any requirements for you this time. Just do your best."
"Alright, you all should go back to the classroom first. Huo Yuhao, you stay for a while."
Wang Dong glanced at him and whispered, "Xiao Xiao and I will wait for you outside."
Seeing that everyone else had left, Huo Yuhao slammed the door shut, crossed his legs on the chair unceremoniously, and asked, "Teacher Zhou, just say whatever you want to say."
Zhou Yi said straightforwardly: "Okay, then I'll tell you. Dean Yan and Dean Xian said that it's okay for others not to enter the top seven, but if you don't enter the top seven, you will bear the consequences yourself!"
Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes: "Teacher Zhou, are you threatening me?"
Zhou Yi felt a lump in her heart, and had a bad feeling. She softened her tone and said, "I am just conveying the words of the two deans."
Huo Yuhao chuckled: "Then depending on what the two deans mean, do I have to participate in this mission? If this mission involves murder and arson, do I have to participate as well?"
Zhou Yi was so angry that she didn't want to argue with him. "What are you talking about? How could the academy send you to do something like this? Anyway, I'm just a messenger. I can't stand you anymore. If you can't make it into the top seven, you can go and argue with the two deans yourself."
"But I can secretly tell you the format of the selection competition in advance. It is said that this is a big fight where all the core disciples will be put together to decide the seven winners!"
Huo Yuhao was slightly stunned when he heard this.
Eating chicken, right?
An evil idea came to my mind.
"Oh, I understand, Mr. Zhou."
He crossed his legs and left the office.
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao were waiting outside the door.
Wang Dong asked curiously: "Yuhao, why did Teacher Zhou leave you alone?"
Huo Yuhao chuckled and told them the task Zhou Yi had assigned to him.
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao looked at each other in surprise and said, "A big fight? Isn't this a bit too much to ask?"
Huo Yuhao rolled his eyes at them and said, “Why, you don’t believe Brother Hao?”
Wang Dong was not very optimistic about him: "It's not that we don't believe in you... Yuhao, although your strength can surpass that of your peers, you are still only at the second ring. Those seniors are almost all at the third or fourth ring, and there are so many people in the selection. The seniors will definitely stick together. How can we juniors stand a chance?"
Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement. After the holiday, both she and Wang Dong had become three-ring soul masters, but they still had no confidence in winning.
"I didn't agree that I would definitely finish in the top seven."
Huo Yuhao raised the corner of his mouth into an evil grin.
"Let's teach those old guys in the academy a lesson."
"Then let's see how Brother Hao controls the whole situation."
"I say who the top seven are, and that's who the top seven are!"
Chapter 109: A big fight? I think we should stop fighting!
Soon it was time for the tryouts three days later.
After school in the afternoon, all the core disciples followed Wang Yan and Zhou Yi to the fighting spirit area.
All the core disciples under the age of fifteen from the outer courtyard gathered here, preparing to participate in the next selection competition.
The second grade had the largest number of core disciples, with eleven in Class One alone, plus Xie Huanyue from Class Two and Ning Tian from Class Three, a total of thirteen. The third and fourth grades combined only had this number.
There were only three core disciples participating in the fifth grade competition, but Huo Yuhao happened to know them all.
Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan.
All three of them have reached the fourth ring of Soul Sect. Apart from them, there is only one fourth ring present, a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department, Fan Yu's disciple He Cai Tou.
The total number was finally determined to be twenty-seven.
All the students were quietly waiting for the selection. Although they didn't know what the selection was for, everyone was ready to give it a try.
Huo Yuhao chuckled.
Others don't know what cruel things he is going to do in the selection competition.
Finally, a staggering figure slowly approached from a distance. He held a wine gourd in his left hand and a chicken leg in his right hand. He looked sloppy. It was Master Xuan.
He burped and asked vaguely, "Is everyone here?"
Wang Yan quickly replied respectfully: "Master Xuan, everyone is here, a total of twenty-seven people."
"Well, let's go in then."
Old Xuan staggered into the fighting spirit area.
Although the core disciples who had never seen Master Xuan were wondering who this drunkard was, they still followed him obediently into the fighting arena.
Master Xuan walked all the way to the center of the fighting arena, and the core disciples stood still and followed his instructions.
Elder Xuan said, "Listen carefully, little guys. The next core disciple assessment is very simple. It is a group fight."
"In this fighting arena, you can attack as you please and fight however you want. There are no rules. Those who surrender or are rescued will be eliminated. The last seven people left will be the winners. Do you understand?"
The other core disciples who had no preparation were dumbfounded. Only Huo Yuhao and his companions who knew the content of the test in advance remained calm.
This type of assessment was almost the first time they encountered it and they didn't know how to make a decision.
Some students looked to their teachers for help, but the teachers had already left the fighting arena.
Before the students in the fighting arena could react, Master Xuan suddenly raised the wine gourd in his hand and shouted, "Begin!"
His figure disappeared in an instant, and only twenty-seven core disciples from the outer courtyard were left on the fighting arena.
The announcement was made so quickly that almost all the students were stunned for a moment, but they soon came to their senses and made their own choices.
Almost all the students were possessed by martial spirits at the same time, and the combination of yellow and purple spirit rings suddenly appeared one after another in the fighting spirit field.
Bei Bei, who was clear-headed, immediately said to Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan beside him: "Sanshi, Nannan, let's join forces."
The cultivation levels of the three of them were originally the highest, and now that they have joined forces, with both offense and defense, they are definitely the most powerful force present.
The other students also formed their own groups, with the third and fourth year students gathering together and the second year students gathering together.
Although their number far exceeds seven people, I haven't thought too much about it now. I'll just sign up for the group first.
He Caitou is the only one in the army, like a lone wolf.
"Where is Yuhao?" Wang Dong turned around and found that Huo Yuhao was gone.
Da da da……
Suddenly, a clear and rhythmic sound was heard in the fighting arena. All the students present were stunned and turned their heads to look in the same direction.
"Everyone, look to the center."
Huo Yuhao snapped his fingers crisply and walked slowly to the center of the fighting arena with a faint smile on his face, making a silent but very penetrating sound.
Two pure white spirit rings lit up behind him, standing out among the yellow and purple spirit rings.
The first soul ring is always shining.
Feeling the surprised gazes of the other twenty-six students, Huo Yuhao smiled evilly.
At this moment, all the twenty-six students were under his shared spiritual detection, and everyone's vision was focused on Huo Yuhao himself.
"This...what's going on? How come everything has become so much clearer?" Xu Sanshi pressed his head blankly, "Did I damage my brain while practicing the Golden Bell Cover?"
Beibei: "..."
He slapped Xu Sanshi on the face and said, "This is Yuhao's soul skill. The person he assists can have a very clear and broad vision."
Jiang Nannan on the side said in surprise: "There is such a powerful spirit skill, it is really unheard of."
Bei Bei nodded: "Well, let's not act rashly and listen to what Yu Hao has to say."
On the other side, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao were introducing the effect of Huo Yuhao's move to other second-year students. He Caitou from the Soul Guidance Department had already understood it, but the third and fourth-year students were all confused.
"Hello classmates, hello seniors, I am Huo Yuhao from the second year. Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me for a few words."
All the students on the field looked at Huo Yuhao intently.
"I think it's not very reasonable to have this free-for-all format for this selection contest. How about this, let's not fight at all, and discuss it together, change the format, and select seven winners."
Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
Suddenly, the fighting arena fell silent.
The teachers watching the game in the stands couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw that no one on the field was moving. Even Old Xuan seemed to sober up a little and stared blankly at the field.
Seeing that the other students were silent, Huo Yuhao said, “How about this? I’ll suggest a few options. How about we conduct the selection according to the regular elimination rounds?”
The other students were silent for a while, and after a long while someone said, "That will take too long."
Huo Yuhao added: “Then let’s sort them by their cultivation levels. How about directly selecting the seven with the highest cultivation levels?”
Another student objected: "How can that be possible? Cultivation does not mean strength."
Huo Yuhao continued, "Then let's have a democratic vote. The seven people with the highest votes will win."
Other students: “…”
"Junior brother... this won't achieve the purpose of selection..."
Huo Yuhao’s face darkened, and he said in a slightly angry tone: “This is not allowed, and that is not allowed. You are really hard to please!”
Other students: “…”
Finally, a third grader couldn't help but say:
"Junior, don't take the initiative. The teacher said that the rules of this selection competition are a free-for-all. It's not your turn to make new rules!"
The third-year students next to him also reacted and echoed him.
They began to prepare for the attack, intending to eliminate Huo Yuhao first.
Huo Yuhao smiled evilly and said, "Okay, let's have a big fight."
"Then we should first fight off all those who oppose me, and then the rest of us can slowly negotiate."
"Do it!"
He snapped his fingers, and the mental detection sharing originally attached to these third-year students was instantly cut off. At the same time, he also gave hints to the minds of other students present.
The vision of a total of six third-year students suddenly became unclear, and even the original visible range seemed to become blurred.
