Chapter 53 Enrollment in Class Zero
Donghai College, Dean of Students' Office.
Wu Changkong, dressed in a plain white outfit, pushed open the door and entered, his body seemingly carrying a chill that never melts.
His icy blue gaze swept lightly over the headmaster, Long Hengxu, before finally settling on the boy standing quietly to one side of the office.
"Chang Kong is here."
Long Hengxu greeted him with a smile, already used to the cold-faced teacher's indifference.
A person with real skills is perfectly normal to be a little arrogant.
Wu Changkong simply nodded slightly in response.
Long Hengxu didn't take it to heart. He turned to the boy beside him and introduced him, "Chang Kong, this is a new transfer student. The academy is considering arranging for him to join your Class Zero."
Wu Changkong immediately frowned and said in a cold voice, "Class Zero only accepts monsters; not just anyone can be squeezed in."
"Don't worry." Long Hengxu's smile remained unchanged, but a look of anticipation flashed in his eyes: "This child absolutely meets your criteria for a 'monster'."
Wu Changkong parted his thin lips slightly, about to refute.
However, the words that Long Hengxu uttered immediately afterward made the words that were already on his lips freeze in his throat—
"He is nine years old this year and is already a three-ring Soul Master."
The air seemed to fall silent for a moment, and Wu Changkong's icy blue pupils contracted almost imperceptibly.
He suddenly turned his head and re-examined the young man in front of him, who remained calm and composed throughout.
Nine years old, Third Ring Road.
Although he didn't know about the martial spirit or the actual combat situation, the speed of cultivation alone was enough to make him tremble.
Even at Shrek Academy, this talent would be enough to directly enter the inner academy!
After a moment of silence, Wu Changkong concealed the slight ripple in his eyes and resumed his usual cold and aloof demeanor.
He said no more, only to Huo Yuhao simply say, "Come with me, let's arrange your accommodations first."
Donghai College, Class Zero classroom.
The spacious classroom, which could normally accommodate more than thirty people, now appeared unusually empty.
From the very beginning, Class Zero had very few students.
Now that Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi have left, only three figures remain in the large classroom.
Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue arrived at the classroom early as usual, took their seats, and prepared to start the new day's lessons.
The morning light streamed through the glass windows, casting several quiet, slanted shadows on the polished floor.
Not long after, the classroom door was pushed open.
Dressed in white, Wu Changkong entered the classroom, still exuding that chilling aura that kept strangers at bay.
However, the three of them exchanged glances.
Today, behind Teacher Wu was an unfamiliar figure.
Gu Yue remained calm and composed; she already knew that this senior brother would be coming today.
Meanwhile, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie, who were sitting not far from her, both showed a hint of curiosity in their eyes as they quietly observed the boy following behind Wu Changkong.
Wu Changkong walked to the front of the stage, his icy blue eyes sweeping over the three faces below, and said, "This is Huo Yuhao, the new transfer student in Class Zero."
Huo Yuhao?!
Upon hearing this name, Xie Xie and Tang Wulin were both momentarily stunned.
Because the name was so unique, it instantly brought back memories deep in their minds of the Spirit Ice Douluo from ten thousand years ago.
Not only them, but even Wu Changkong, who always had a cold expression, twitched his eyebrows almost imperceptibly when he first heard the name, and a very faint expression flashed across his icy face.
Wu Changkong didn't say much and went straight to the point: "Today's first lesson is practical combat. Come with me to the training ground."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the classroom.
The group immediately got up and followed, passing through the quiet corridor and heading to the combat training ground specially equipped for Class Zero by the academy.
This practical lesson can be said to have been specially prepared by Wu Changkong for Huo Yuhao.
He wanted to see for himself just how capable this boy, who had reached the Soul Venerable realm at the age of nine, was in actual combat.
The training ground was brightly lit, and the ground was paved with a specially made soul-guided alloy.
Wu Changkong stopped, his gaze sweeping over the four people in front of him, finally landing on Tang Wulin and Xie Xie: "Wulin, Xie Xie, you two will fight Huo Yuhao."
Among the three students in Class Zero, Gu Yue was the strongest in his eyes, and even ordinary Soul Masters might not be able to gain an advantage.
Therefore, he did not have Gu Yue and Xie Xie join forces, but instead chose the combination of Tang Wulin and Xie Xie.
Although Tang Wulin was only a one-ring Soul Master, his "Golden Dragon Claw" was incredibly powerful and could not be judged by ordinary standards. Otherwise, he would not have been exceptionally admitted to Class Zero.
Tang Wulin and Xie Xie exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. They hadn't expected that Teacher Wu would "increase the intensity" for this new student right from the start!
Tang Wulin always trusted Wu Changkong's arrangements and believed that he must have his reasons for doing so, so he didn't say much.
Xie Xie, however, could no longer contain himself and raised his eyebrows, saying, "Teacher Wu, I should be able to handle the new student by myself, right?"
Under Wu Changkong's almost rigorous guidance, his skills improved by leaps and bounds that year, and he was naturally full of confidence when facing his peers.
Wu Changkong offered no explanation, only casually stating, "Huo Yuhao is a Soul Master."
Soul Master?!
Tang Wulin and Xie Xie suddenly turned their gazes to Huo Yuhao, their astonishment barely concealed.
This boy, who looks to be about the same age as them, is actually a three-ring Soul Master!
The relaxation on their faces vanished instantly, replaced by solemnity and reverence.
This wasn't just about the importance placed on the upcoming battle; it was also about genuinely feeling the pressure from a true genius like Huo Yuhao.
Wu Changkong and Gu Yue retreated to the sidelines, leaving the center of the field to the three of them.
Battle is imminent.
Xie Xie and Tang Wulin completed their martial soul possession almost simultaneously. Under Wu Changkong's almost brutal practical training, the two had already formed a tacit understanding that required no words.
With just a glance, the next strategy was already decided.
Xie Xie took the lead!
As an agility-type Soul Master, his figure was like a fleeting shadow, covering a distance of more than ten meters in the blink of an eye, directly approaching Huo Yuhao.
However, Huo Yuhao remained standing still, without even releasing his martial soul, as if he was a beat slow to react.
Watching from the sidelines, Wu Changkong frowned, wondering if this young man had devoted all his energy to cultivating his soul power and had almost no practical combat experience.
A fierce glint flashed in Xie Xie's eyes, but he did not hesitate in the slightest because the other party had not summoned his martial soul.
He moved like a ghost to Huo Yuhao's side, his right hand holding the Light Dragon Dagger, which gleamed with a cold light, and stabbed down mercilessly at Huo Yuhao's neck!
The blade sliced through the air, accompanied by a sharp screech.
Just as the tip of the dagger was about to touch the skin—
Huo Yuhao made a move.
He merely turned his head slightly, and at the same time, a flash of blue light appeared on his right hand, and a longsword with an ice-blue aura appeared out of thin air, its blade precisely blocking the path of the Light Dragon Dagger!
"clang!"
A crisp, metallic clang rang out!
Xie Xie felt a solid, counterforce coming from the sword, which made his wrist go numb.
He used the momentum to retreat, landing several meters away, his eyes filled with astonishment and doubt.
