"Little Yuhao! Welcome to Shrek City!" Tang Ya said as she stood infront of the path leading to a huge city with tall walls covering all sides and gates on four sides as Yuhao looked at the city in slight awe.
Yuhao didn't know why but, his temperament and even his behaviour had changed a lot after being bound by the successor system and being chosen by that being.
Yuhao didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing but, if it could help him in his path for revenge? He'll gladly accept the price.
"Then, Little Brother Yuhao, let's register at the Academy now." Bei Bei said as he took Yuhao to the city with Tang Ya as they flashed their badge at the guards while showing Yuhao's recommendation letter and then entered the City.
Looking at the prosperous and crowded city, Yuhao suddenly had a thought 'Aren't there a lot of Soul Masters here Brother Daydream?' Yuhao asked Daydream and received an affirmative.
'Then....why are they all so.... unorganised?' Yuhao asked after searching for the word he was thinking of, yes, unorganised. The entire city was a mess while also being tidy, stalls and the like we're set up next to Blacksmiths, next to some Soul Guide shops were Resturants and the like....To put it simply, it was unorganised.
Yuhao before would have been too impressed by the city and not even care about such a thing but now? He didn't know why but he felt a strong sense of discomfort as he looked at the messy city.
'Isn't the answer simple?' Skydream asked him 'Just become the strongest and reorganize everything, no one can complain if you're strong enough after all.' Skydream said as Yuhao nodded slightly and continued to follow Bei Bei and Tang Ya.
"Little Brother Yuhao, here." Bei Bei said as he suddenly gave Yuhao a bag filled with coins as he looked at Bei Bei in confusion.
"I know it may seem weird but.....this is my investment in you Little Brother Yuhao, this is only a hundred gold coins, not worth mentioning." Bei Bei said but Yuhao felt that he couldn't just accept it like that.
"Big Brother Bei... I'll definitely pay you back!" Yuhao said seriously as Bei Bei smiled gently at him.
"Now! Let's go get you registered!" Tang Ya said as she dragged Yuhao by the hand towards the Academy while Bei Bei just smiled dotingly at Tang Ya and followed.
"Zhou Feng, 11 Years Old, Soul Power 16, Martial Spirit: Mushroom. Qualified. Please go to the next assessment." The examiner said to a chubby boy who happily went to the combat assessment as it seemed.
"Huo Yuhao" Yuhao said as he gave his recommendation letter to the examiner while Bei Bei stood behind him and then paid 10 Gold coins for Yuhao's tuition.
"Please put your hand on the Orb." The examiner said as he looked at Yuhao who was recommended by Bei Bei himself using the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's quota and Yuhao did as told.
"....H-Huo Y-Yuhao, 11 Years old.....Soul Power..3-30... Martial Spirit: K-King of Hell....Qualified." The examiner said as he looked at Yuhao in shock but his eyes immediately looked down the moment he saw those mesmerizing crimson eyes that seemed to stare into his very soul.
"Then, Big Brother Bei Bei, Big Sister Xiao Ya, will you be coming with me?" Yuhao asked the duo who were suppressing a smile at finally having someone else be shocked.
"Of course Little Yuhao!" Tang Ya said as she dragged Bei Bei and Yuhao to the next assessment.
"Huo Yuhao?" The next examiner asked with a gulp as Yuhao nodded "...Please release your Soul Rings..." He said as Yuhao listened and two purple Soul Rings spun around Yuhao as his Pupils became Golden Crosses which seemed to make him want to kneel.
"Pu-purple?!" The young man screamed as he felt his cognition and worldview tilt and do a backflip when he saw Yuhao's Soul Ring configuration while Bei Bei and Tang Ya snickered in the background.
"So? Are you going to fight or....?" Yuhao asked the young man who according to his Soul Power fluctuations was a Soul Ancestor who should be around Level 47.
"Um...uh...I-Yes..." He stumbled with his words "If you manage to last 5 minutes under my attack..uh, you can pass the assesment." The young man said as he finally got his bearing(forced himself to be temporarily calm so that he can scream into his pillow later).
"We'll begin in 30 seconds." The young man said as Yuhao and he both retreated a bit and stared at each other, Yuhao was completely calm but the young man named Mo Nan felt like he was being stared at by a higher being that made his very soul tremble
"3....2.....1!" Mo Nan counted as he rushed towards Yuhao who just smiled at Mo Nan and Mo Nan promptly fainted. "I should have passed, right?" Yuhao asked a female senior who should be the assistant examiner who was also doubting life as she nodded and gave Yuhao his First Year Badge.
"You should see their faces! As if they were doubting reality." Tang Ya said while smiling happily with Bei Bei nodding in agreement, Bei Bei although elegant and easy going to most, contained just as much mischief as Tang Ya but it was restrained by himself, otherwise why would Bei Bei fall head over heels for Tang Ya?
"It isn't that bad, right?" Yuhao asked Bei Bei and Tang Ya as he took his dormitory keys while Bei Bei handed him a Quilt and blanket as Yuhao then looked towards the notice board.
"...Class One incharge: Zhou Yi...Class Nine incharge: Mu Jin..." He read out as he nodded
"Hm, It seems Miss Mu Jin should be my teacher." Yuhao said as he was placed in Class Nine.
"Zhou Yi that old pervert grandma is teaching the first years instead of third years?!" Tang Ya exclaimed after hearing what Yuhao said as Yuhao looked at her with doubt.
"Teacher Zhou Yi.....Shrek outer courtyard may not have many Monster Students like you but there are Monstrous Teachers like Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi is a teacher who has expelled a lot of students and was demoted to teach the first years after she went too far last time by making only 10% of the Third year's be promoted, she's also known for her strictness and high requirements" Bei Bei explained "So, why's she still teaching? Doesn't the Academy care?" Yuhao asked
"Despite her misgivings, she still has the highest number of students with the enrollment rate into the Inner Courtyard and well, her students who are promoted also have zero complaints about her." Bei Bei said helplessly as Yuhao nodded.
"So....a person who uses her connections?" Yuhao asked as Tang Ya burst into laughter while Bei Bei smiled helplessly "Yes...in a way." He admitted.
"Well, Big Brother Bei, Big Sister Xiao Ya, I'll go to my dorm now, see you later!" Yuhao said as he waved at them and walked towards the Freshmen Dorms.
"See you Little Brother Yuhao! My dorm is 316! Come to me if you need anything!" Bei Bei said as Yuhao smiled and nodded then went into the Dormitory area.
Looking at the old man lying at the entrance who seemed to have very heavy wrinkles and muddled yellow eyes while wearing grey clothes was lying on a chair with sunlight sprinkling on him, making his current position seen very comfortable.
"Hello Grandpa, I'm a new Student here, could you tell me where my Dormitory is?" Yuhao asked the old man as he handed him his Badge and Keys and the old man slightly raised his eyes and met Yuhao's own
The old man's whole body suddenly trembled as he felt that he was being stared at by a superior being and being suppressed but the feeling was reduced when he broke eye contact and tremblingly grabbed the badge and key and looked at it.
"Room..... 108...it is the third room from my left on the first floor..... The women's dorms start from the fourth floor, you can't go upstairs. If you are discovered up there, you'll be expelled." The old man said as Yuhao nodded "I see, thank you grandpa." Yuhao said as he entered the dormitory.
"... Such a monster was born....? He can even.... suppress me?" The old man muttered with a solemn tone then returned to his relaxed appearance ".... It's not my problem."
"*Cough* *cough* Why is this place so dusty?" Yuhao complained as he entered his Dorm and was met face to face with a delicate and handsome young boy of the same age with blue and pink hair who wore the Shrek First Year uniform and had an arrogant temperament that screamed rich boy.
"You also live in this dorm room, I assume. I'll graciously allow you to live with me for nowif you clean this place. I have a few rules that you must remember: One, you're not allowed to randomly bring other people back to this room. Two, you're not allowed to bare your disgusting naked body in this room. Three, you're not allowed to snore at night. Four, you're not allowed to bother me. Five, you're in charge of the cleanliness of this room in the future, but you can't touch my bed. Do you understand clearly?" The arrogant boy said as Yuhao's eyes twitched.
"Why should I listen to you?" Yuhao asked but the boy snorted "If you don't listen, I'll just have to throw you out." He said as Yuhao determined that he did not like his roommate
The people Yuhao hated the most were these arrogant self righteous idiots like those from the Duke's Mansion and well, Yuhao wasn't going to accept this arrogant bastard.
"Oh yeah? Want to try it, brat?" Yuhao asked provoking as he kicked the bastard through the open window and jumped after him.
"Ugh!?" The boy retched in confusion as he was suddenly kicked out of the dorm and then grabbed by the collar by Yuhao.
"Arrogant are you? If you don't have the ability to match it, what gives you the right to be arrogant?" Yuhao asked as he threw the boy to the ground outside and he himself dropped down and landed.
"Sorry Grandpa, I'm just teaching a brat a lesson." Yuhao apologized to the old man who just waved his hands but looked intrested at the development.
"Oi! Brat, what's your name? My name's Huo Yuhao." Yuhao said as he asked the boy who was now covered in dirt and slowly stood up his name.
"Why should I tell you?!" The boy roared angrily as golden wings appeared behind him and two Soul Rings Yellow and Purple rose up from his feet.
"That's it?" Yuhao asked as he suddenly appeared behind the boy "Too weak." He said as he whip kicked the boy again and then caught upto the boy's body in midair and proceeded to dropkick him into the ground.
"Do you yield?" Yuhao asked as he placed the White Tiger Dagger on the boy's fair and delicate throat as the boy trembled as a faint chill spread down his throat.
"Good." Yuhao said as he got up and walked back to the dorms "Look, we're gonna be roommates so, understand this, we're equal, got that? If you didn't, I'll teach you again?" Yuhao asked while cracking his knuckles then nodded to the old man and walked inside.
Looking at the boy who was obviously angry but incompetent, the old man sighed "You should be glad you didn't die..that boy is strong, very strong." He said as the boy seemed to wanted to argue "He didn't even release his Martial Spirit and you were one sidedly beaten by him." The old man said as the boy stomped his feet in anger but walked towards the dorm.
