Mu Jin nodded gently and said, "Yuhao, what I'm giving you is a soul bone, and it's something you've earned. Do you remember the battle with Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, and Bai Yan? Back then, I made a bet with their class teacher and won this soul bone. Open it and take a look."
Huo Yuhao reached into the leather bag and pulled out the item. A brilliant ice-blue light burst forth, accompanied by a bone-chilling cold.
It was a left leg bone, miniature in size, translucent throughout, and resembling a stunning sapphire. It was enveloped in a soft blue soul light. However, the soul power fluctuations emanating from this soul bone were far less intense compared to the 50,000-year-old skull of the Dread Dragon King he had encountered before.
Moreover, this soul bone was incomplete. The more complete a soul bone, the higher its quality naturally becomes.
"This left leg bone was taken from a 7,000-year-old dire wolf. Ice-attributed soul bones are relatively rare here, making them valuable treasures. However, while the quality of this soul bone isn't bad, its age is a bit low for you."
"My personal suggestion is that you shouldn't fuse it directly, Yuhao, as it might waste your potential."
"Of course, this is just a suggestion. How you use it later is entirely up to you. Alright, go back to class now. Teacher Wang Yan is still waiting for you."
Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate and accepted the soul bone directly.
"Thank you, Teacher Mu."
Afterward, Huo Yuhao returned to the first-year teaching building alone.
As soon as he entered the classroom, he immediately drew the attention of the entire class.
Among the four freshman classes, Class 1 was undoubtedly the strongest, though it didn't have the largest number of students. The combined number of students from the strong attack and control departments was only about 60, with the largest class being the mixed Class 4.
Wang Yan smiled gently and said, "Yuhao, you're back just in time. We're about to start electing the class monitor. Please take a seat first."
The class had been reorganized, and most of the seats had changed. Fortunately, Huo Yuhao's seat remained the same—still in the familiar back row by the window. To his right sat Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong.
On the podium, Wang Yan continued, "Let's elect the class monitor and deputy monitor. Since our class consists of combat soul masters from the attack and control departments, the monitor and deputy monitor will be from these two departments respectively. The positions will rotate every month. I'll nominate candidates, and then everyone will vote anonymously."
Upon hearing that the class monitor was to be elected, Wang Dong was the first to voice his opinion:
"Teacher Wang, I don't think there's any need to hold an election for the attack department. Who could be more suitable than Yuhao?"
Wang Dong's words garnered almost unanimous agreement from the class, and everyone chimed in.
"Yes, yes, there's no need for an election."
"I vote for Huo Yuhao!"
"I also agree that Huo Yuhao should be the monitor!"
Wang Yan's teaching style had always been gentle, unlike Zhou Yi's strict and controlling demeanor. Even though the monitor election was interrupted by this unexpected turn of events, he remained calm and smiling.
"In that case, let's just raise our hands and vote. Please raise your hand if you agree that Huo Yuhao should be the monitor."
As expected, the result was clear. Even Wu Feng, who had always disliked Huo Yuhao, raised her hand.
'If it's Huo Yuhao, I can only reluctantly acknowledge his strength.'
The only person who didn't raise his hand was Huo Yuhao himself. He hadn't expected to be thrust into the role of monitor again.
It's true that fame often brings gossip. As for the responsibilities of the monitor, Huo Yuhao didn't find them too burdensome. Having served as the monitor of the freshman class once before, he had plenty of experience. He knew the duties weren't overly complicated, and with a deputy monitor to share the workload, he could manage easily.
Everyone except Huo Yuhao raised their hands.
The students who could enter Shrek Academy were considered heaven's chosen ones, each with their own pride. However, after the freshman assessment, everyone had glimpsed the tip of the iceberg of Huo Yuhao's strength. His overwhelming power had won over almost everyone.
Moreover, at Shrek Academy, strength was paramount. The position of class monitor could be challenged at any time—defeat the current monitor, and you could take their place. Only the strong could rise to the top!
As for Dai Huabin? He had no objections, as he was in Class 2. Due to the martial soul fusion technique, the academy had granted Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu the privilege of being in the same class together. However, instead of choosing Class 1, which had the best conditions and was the most suitable, they had opted for Class 2.
Aside from the idea of being a "big fish in a small pond," they also wanted to stay as far away from Huo Yuhao as possible.
The election for the control department's monitor was more competitive. There were four nominees: Xiao Xiao, Cao Jinxuan, Lan Susu, and Lan Luoluo. In the end, even Xiao Xiao herself was surprised to win by a narrow margin.
Thus, the two monitors of the freshman class were decided: Huo Yuhao of the attack department and Xiao Xiao of the control department.
Speaking of Xiao Xiao, the previous achievement task had been successfully completed after the class division. Unsurprisingly, it was because Xiao Xiao had escaped Zhou Yi's clutches. From then on, the sky was the limit, and she was free to soar.
[Achievement Trigger!]
[Achieved Xiao Xiao's "When Will It End" achievement and received the reward: Hidden Breath Gu.]
[Hidden Breath Gu: A second-level Gu worm that can conceal its user's aura.]
[Evaluation: You can't see me!]
...
While Class 1 was filled with a happy atmosphere, Class 2 was a completely different story.
As the head teacher of Class 2, Zhou Yi was busy establishing her authority at that moment! Her old face appeared calm, but her eyes were like sharp knives, coldly scanning the room.
"Everyone, stand up," Zhou Yi commanded coldly.
Students like Bai Yan, who had been under Zhou Yi's tutelage before, trembled inwardly and immediately stood up. They knew all too well that this strict old lady was about to assert her dominance.
The other students stood up one after another, some quickly and some more slowly. Those who didn't know Zhou Yi well thought, 'She's just an old lady—what can she do?'
Zhou Yi sneered, "Very good. Thirty-one of you stood up immediately after my order, while the other thirty delayed. Those whose names I call, go to the corridor and stand as punishment!"
"Xie Huanyue," she called out first, naming Xie Huanyue, a Soul Elder and core disciple.
Xie Huanyue was stunned and then said with a playful smile, "Teacher Zhou, don't be so serious. I just stood up a little late."
Zhou Yi didn't waste any words. In a flash, she appeared in front of Xie Huanyue, grabbed his collar, and threw him out the window.
Xie Huanyue screamed as he flew out, and then there was silence.
The students were stunned.
"Long Xiangyue, Nanmen Yuner..." Zhou Yi's cold voice continued, and soon, all thirty students who had stood up late were called out.
With Xie Huanyue's fate fresh in their minds, no one dared to resist. Seeing the six soul rings glowing around Zhou Yi, everyone obeyed without question.
Zhou Yi said lightly, "I announce two things. First, the class monitors of this class will be appointed. Xie Huanyue is the monitor of the defense department, and Bai Yan is the monitor of the agility attack department. Second, anyone who dares to question the teacher's decisions in class will be expelled."
"Teacher Zhou, don't class monitors have to be elected?" Dai Huabin suddenly spoke up.
It was one thing for him not to be elected as the monitor of the strong attack department, but how could Zhu Lu be inferior to Bai Yan?
Zhou Yi glanced at him coldly. "I just said that anyone who dares to question the teacher will be expelled. You're a core disciple, so I can't expel you. But I will request the academy to transfer you out of freshman Class 2. Dai Huabin, stand up and get out."
Dai Huabin was stunned. Zhou Yi, this old woman, was completely unreasonable. Before he could react, Zhou Yi was already in front of him.
Facing Zhou Yi, a six-ringed Soul Emperor, Dai Huabin didn't even have the strength to resist. He was promptly thrown out the window, following in Xie Huanyue's footsteps.
"Teacher Zhou, I don't accept this!" Zhu Lu cried out in shock and anger.
Zhou Yi grabbed her and threw her out the window in an instant. "Get out if you don't accept it."
The entire class fell silent.
It was at this moment that Mu Jin, who had been preparing teaching materials, arrived at the freshman teaching building. Hearing the commotion from Class 2, her brows furrowed in concern.
