Chapter 10 Freshman Assessment In the blink of an eye, the first three months of study for the freshmen had passed. Under Zhou Yi's strict and almost perverted guidance, after three months of baptism, there were only 65 students left in the first class of freshmen. In these three months, the student who has changed the most in the freshman class is Huo Yuhao. When he first entered school, his soul power was only level 11. However, three months later, Huo Yuhao is a completely different person. His talent is not particularly outstanding, and his ability is not particularly outstanding. But he is always the most serious one among all of them. Huo Yuhao's soul power broke through three levels in succession, and broke through a bottleneck, staying at the level of level 17. At this point, Huo Yuhao's own cultivation has reached the average level of the students in the class. With his unremitting practice, his soul power has continued to improve over the past three months. Three months later, Huo Yuhao has reached the peak of level 17 and is about to break through to level 18. Compared to Huo Yuhao, Ye Qian'an's cultivation has also improved significantly. He has been practicing with Gu Yuena for three months, and his soul power level has also broken through one after another. With the help of spiritual objects, his progress in cultivation can almost be described as a thousand miles a day. He is on the verge of the peak of level 28 and may break through at any time. Even when facing the third seal, he has passed it steadily. At the same time, Ye Qian was still developing new soul skills. With the power of his Golden Dragon King bloodline, it was not difficult to develop new skills. At first, Ye Qian deliberately practiced his self-created soul skills in front of Dragon God Douluo Moon, but Dragon God Douluo didn't pay much attention to him and was drowsy every time. However, under Ye Qian'an's repeated insistence, Dragon God Douluo would occasionally give him some pointers to help him perfect his own soul skills. Gu Yuena's benefits were self-evident, and her injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, every time Ye Qian'an increased his soul power by one level, she would be one level higher than him, which made Ye Qian'an quite helpless. “A real man walks between heaven and earth; how can he be inferior to others for long?” Whenever Ye Qian’an said this, Gu Yuena would let him experience the “dangers” of life. "Today's physical education class is suspended." Zhou Yi stood behind the podium, his old face still showing that indifferent look. "Three months have passed since the start of the school year. You are about to face your first assessment at Shrek Academy. Only by passing the assessment can you officially become a first-year student and truly become a member of Shrek Academy."
"If nothing unexpected happens, you will be able to continue to practice at the academy until at least the first-year graduation exam. The exam will begin tomorrow. Today, I will explain the key points of the exam to you, Huo Yuhao." “Here.” Huo Yuhao stood up instantly and responded respectfully. Zhou Yi waved to Huo Yuhao, who hurried to the podium and took the stack of papers handed to him by Zhou Yi. Without waiting for Zhou Yi's instructions, he quickly distributed them to every student in the class. Zhou Yi said: "After the freshman assessment is over, we will teach them according to their aptitude. Write down the direction of your future cultivation and give it to me later." Huo Yuhao returned to his seat and was the last one to write down his goal. He naturally wrote "Control-type Soul Master" and signed his name below. However, he did not notice that Wang Dong beside him glanced at what he wrote and then started to write down his own preference. Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena's preferences are respectively strong attack and control. The reasons are obvious. One is the Golden Dragon King who is good at strength, and the other is the Silver Dragon King who is good at elemental control. If they go in other directions, it would be a bit of a waste of time. Zhou Yi said: "Now I will tell you the key points of the freshman assessment." As he spoke, Zhou Yi turned and walked to the blackboard, drew a few simple lines on it, and wrote the two big words "Battle" in the center of the blackboard. Zhou Yi said calmly, "There are currently 65 students in our class, which can be divided into 21 groups, with two people left. I have classified you according to your respective martial spirit characteristics, and after careful analysis, I have completed the grouping for you." "Now we will start to form groups. The first group, Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena, you two will form a group." Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena stood up almost at the same time. Originally, they had planned to be a group together. After all, they were already very familiar with each other. "The second group: Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao." Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong stood up almost at the same time. Also standing up with them was a short and petite female student sitting in the front row. "The third group: Zihao, Ma Qingshuang, and Leng Leng." "Fourth group……" Zhou Yi seemed strong, but after her grouping was announced, every student felt relieved. "Okay, that's it. If you have any opinions, please raise them as soon as possible. I'll give you a day to think about it. Give me the papers in your hands, and then you can go home. The final result of the freshman assessment that will begin tomorrow is that all 22 of your groups will advance." "Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, the three of you stay." After Ye Qian'an, Gu Yuena and other students handed in the white papers with their future cultivation preferences written on them, they all walked out of the classroom and returned to the dormitory, leaving only Huo Yuhao and three others.
Ye Qi'an could figure out with his toes that the reason Zhou Yi kept the three people was nothing more than that they all wrote the control system. Zhou Yi, who took the note, was almost angry to death. However, Zhou Yi also discovered that Xiao Xiao had twin martial spirits. Among the three, only Wang Dong was really elusive. On the way back to the dormitory, Gu Yuena looked at Ye Qian and asked, "Can you do it in this competition?" "If you don't take action, it will be difficult for me too." Ye Qian'an shook his head slightly. There was indeed a difficult problem in this freshman competition. Facing the martial soul fusion technique, even he found it difficult. Gu Yuena curled her lips and said, "I thought you didn't need my help." Ye Qian smiled helplessly, "I naturally hope to fight alongside you and face challenges together. When the two of us join forces, who dares to claim to be invincible?" Ye Qian and Gu Yuena spent the night in silence, practicing. The next morning, after breakfast, they came to the teaching building. As soon as they entered the classroom, they felt a warm atmosphere. After Zhou Yi's grouping yesterday, every three students gathered together today, whispering something. "Bang, bang, bang." Three knocks were heard, and the next moment, the whole class was silent, and you could hear a pin drop. Zhou Yi stood at the door of the classroom, and just when she put down her right hand, it was the sound of her knocking on the door that made the noise. Walking slowly to the podium, Zhou Yi still had that cold expression on her face, "I have reported the participating teams. The competition will officially begin this afternoon. In the ten round-robin matches, you will not meet each other, but will only encounter students from other classes. I have only one piece of advice for you, whoever hinders you from passing the assessment will be beaten to death. Okay, disperse, and gather in the assessment area this afternoon." After saying that, she turned around and left. The assessment area of Shrek Academy is located in the north-central part of the Wuhun Department, adjacent to the Douhun Area. Compared with the Douhun Area, the assessment area is much larger, and every year a large number of students are eliminated due to failure to pass the assessment, among which most of the assessments are conducted in this assessment area. The assessment area was oval in shape, not like a fenced stadium like the fighting spirit area, but an open space. The outer perimeter was a circle of low walls, and the interior was divided into areas by partitions, which could be split at any time to change the size of the area. The freshman assessments in previous years were always those when the assessment areas were divided the most. This was not only because there were a large number of freshmen, but also because their destructive power and attack range were limited, so they did not need a too large area to display their abilities. The entire assessment area is about 20,000 square meters, and has now been divided into 50 areas, each of which is about 400 square meters, a square with a side length of 20 meters. For freshmen who generally only have one or two rings of cultivation, this area is enough. After the intense grouping in the morning, the assessment officially started in the afternoon. Because today is the first day of the assessment, in order to let the freshmen adapt first, each group can leave after only one round of assessment today. The college sent 50 teachers to register for the assessment in 50 areas. The test objects for today's assessment were drawn and grouped at noon. Try to ensure that the teams of the same class will not meet in the next ten round-robin matches. In the end, there were 310 groups of students participating in the freshman assessment, totaling 929 people. Among these 310 groups of students, only 150 groups were able to stay and officially become first-year students to continue their studies, and the rest would be eliminated. There are a total of fifty regions for freshman assessment, that is, each region is assigned to six or seven teams of students to participate. Not only today, but they will also have to compete with other teams assigned to the region in the same region tomorrow, until all teams have met and then regrouped, and finally complete ten games for each team. Ye Qi'an and Gu Yuena were assigned to the 33rd District. If Ye Qi'an guessed correctly, they might encounter the same teams that Huo Yuhao's team faced in the original novel. The district divisions were easy to find, and each district had a distinct sign. Soon, the two found their own district. Students from other classes who are also participating in the competition have also arrived. Some are nervous, while others are eager to try. It is likely that only half of them will be able to stay. "All freshmen, please pay attention. All freshmen, please enter the assessment area immediately to prepare for the freshman assessment. There are only ten minutes left to enter. If you are late, you will be regarded as having forfeited this assessment." A huge broadcast sounded throughout the outer courtyard, and the sound was loud enough to reach every corner of the outer courtyard. Most of the freshmen's faces turned serious. Their first test was coming soon. It would be a lie to say they were not nervous. Of course, there were exceptions to everything. Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena were not nervous at all. Although Gu Yuena had sealed her strength, she could control her soul skills almost effortlessly, and Ye Qian only needed to break through her opponent with force. When facing beast spirit masters, both of them had natural blood suppression against them, and when facing weapon spirits, they just had to rush over. Gu Yuena put her left hand on Ye Qian'an's shoulder and leaned against him diagonally. "Are you nervous?" Ye Qian smiled slightly and whispered, "Facing the two of us, our opponents should be the ones who should be nervous." Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena smiled at each other, their eyes full of confidence and composure. The freshman assessment is so important that the academy’s reminders through the soul guide’s broadcast are of little use, as all the students have already arrived at their designated areas and are ready. A teacher who looked to be about 40 years old came to the 33rd District. He had an ordinary appearance and no domineering aura. He had a kind smile on his face and looked very kind. He counted the number of people and nodded with a smile, saying, "Very good. We have a total of six groups of students participating in the assessment, and they are all here. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Wang Yan, and I will be your assessment teacher for the next two days." "Hello, Teacher Wang." The students hurriedly bowed to him. Wang Yan laughed and said, "My coaching habit has always been to treat everyone as friends, so I don't want to see anyone get hurt..."
The students who were able to enter Shrek Academy were all smart people. They naturally understood the meaning of his words and nodded to show that they understood. Wang Yan smiled and said, "In that case, let's get started. For young people like you, a sense of urgency is a good thing." As he spoke, he took out a folder and opened it. When he saw the team of only two people, he was stunned for a moment, but soon recovered and looked up and said, "First round, first test, freshman class one: Ye Qian'an, Gu Yuena, freshman class three: Ouyang Junyi, Chen Junfeng, Zhao Haochen. You can enter the venue, each in a corner. I said that you can release your martial spirits after the game starts. Enter." There are six groups of students. Today, the 33rd district will hold three games. Ye Qian and Gu Yuena quickly walked into the venue and stood in the northwest corner. The three students from the freshman class three were all boys, and they all looked good. The tallest one was Ouyang Junyi, and he also had the best appearance. Next to him, Chen Junfeng was not short but very thin. The last one, Zhao Haochen, was a little fat boy with a round belly and a simple smile on his face. Seeing that both parties were in position, Teacher Wang Yan nodded and said, "The assessment begins." The three students from the freshman class three immediately released their martial spirits. Zhao Haochen, who was standing at the back, shouted, "Come here, my big chicken leg." I saw a circle of yellow soul ring rippling under his feet, and two yellow lights flashed in his hands. Suddenly, two large braised chicken legs appeared in his hands, and he quickly handed them to the two people in front of him. Ouyang Junyi and Chen Junfeng quickly took the chicken legs while releasing their martial spirits, took a big bite and started eating. Ouyang Junyi and Chen Junfeng attacked at the same time. One of them had a beast martial soul and the other had a weapon martial soul, but both were agility attack type combat soul masters. Ouyang Junyi's martial soul is the sword-beaked hummingbird. After releasing his martial soul, a spike quickly appeared on the front of his right arm. His martial soul is a bird, but he has not yet acquired wings. Chen Junfeng's martial soul is a soft sword. All three of them are one-ring soul masters, and all have yellow hundred-year soul rings. ......... (End of this chapter)
