The seemingly tacit understanding between Zhou Yi and Wang Dong sent the students standing in front of Zhou Yis desk into a daze. They had no diea what had happened.
Zhou Yi waved towards them, You guys can go back and prepare first.
Yes. Though the three students were very curious as to what had occurred, they didnt dare to stay behind. They hurriedly left Zhou Yis office, cleverly closing the door as they did so.
Wang Dong spoke impatiently. Teacher Zhou, has Huo Yuhao not co back yet? If you havent seen him either, why dont we go over to the Soul Tool Departnt and ask them about it?
Zhou Yi furrowed her brows, and a hint of anger appeared in her eyes, No need. Ive already gone there to ask them about it. Just what is that brat Huo Yuhao doing? He told that the teachers from the Soul Tool Departnt were accompanying him to get a soul ring, but when I asked Fan Yu about it, he said that Huo Yuhao had told him that the teachers from the Martial Soul Departnt were taking him to get a soul ring. Isnt he just lying to both parties? In the end, nobody went with him. Dont tell this brat just entered the Great Star Dou Forest alone?
Hearing her words, Wang Dong imdiately beca even more anxious, No way. He doesnt even have any attacking soul skills, so how in the world is he going to go hunt a soul beast by himself? Thats too dangerous. No way, no way. Why would he be that dumb? When we left each other, his mood was still very normal!
Zhou Yi spoke in a low voice, Hes definitely hiding sothing from us. Lets do this. Imdiately go to the upperclassns dorms and bring Bei Bei and Tang Ya over here. If theyre not here either, then thats what mustve happened. Huo Yuhao belongs to the Tang Sect, so they might know what happened. If Bei Bei and Tang Ya followed him to the Great Star Dou Forest, then its explainable.
Okay. Wang Dong turned away and left. Right now, he was only praying that Bei Bei and Tang Ya werent back yet. They mustve followed Huo Yuhao to help him get his soul ring.
However, reality wouldnt just change due to a persons willpower. Within a few monts, Bei Bei and Tang Ya appeared inside Zhou Yis office. Though theyd just arrived, theyd truly returned!
After hearing that Huo Yuhao hadnt returned, they were both astonished. Bei Bei said, Teacher Zhou, our little junior brother was still fine the last ti we saw him. He cant possibly have gone to hunt a soul beast by himself. Though we saw him kill a soul beast the first ti we saw him, he was injured. Furthermore, the soul beast he killed was of the ten year rank. This ti around, hes looking for his second soul ring. With his combat strength, even with a low-ranked Soul Tool and the martial arts of our Tang Sect, its still going to be very difficult for him to take on a hundred year soul beast. After all, his cultivations still too low. Our little junior brothers very smart, so why would he act so foolishly?
They all looked at each other. No matter how they thought about it, they just couldnt understand why Huo Yuhao had lied to everyone when he left the academy.
He hadnt returned, and there was no use in panicking. Zhou Yi was anxious, but Fan Yu was even more anxious than she was.
It had been so hard for him to find such a good disciple who even revealed such an astonishing amount of talent in the field of soul tool creation. However, he had actually hatched such a wicked plan. Itd be strange if he wasnt feeling anxious. Like the others, he wasnt completely sure as to why Huo Yuhao was doing this. However, with his understanding of Huo Yuhao, he knew that he wasnt an unreliable person! He definitely had a predicant that gave him no choice but to do this.
Every person who was close to Huo Yuhao had their own different thoughts. So of them were angry, so were remorseful, and so were puzzled. However, none of them could think of the true reason why Huo Yuhao had hidden the truth from them. But, ti didnt stop for anyone.
Within the blink of an eye, one day passed.
Within another blink of an eye, the second day ended.
It was finally ti to re-enroll in Shrek Academy. The students from the various year groups were all reporting in and registering their nas. The entrance exams had already ended, and the newcors had already entered the school. However, the students from the other year groups were still waiting for the coming advancent test.
The registration period started in the morning and went on all the way till the afternoon before ending.
Wang Dong had already completed his re-enrollnt. After that, he anxiously stood by the entrance to Shrek Academy and gazed outwards, waiting.
Why? Why hasnt he co back yet? Why?
Shrek Academys rules were very stringent. If you werent able to register in ti, you would be forced to leave the school!
The sky gradually darkened, but he still hadnt returned yet.
As Wang Dong looked towards the distance, his gaze was already sowhat dazed. He was only twelve this year, and he was slightly younger than Huo Yuhao. During his twelve years of life, this was the first ti hed thought so much about anyone.
His legs had already gone numb after standing for so long, but scenes of his activities and studies with Huo Yuhao in the sa dorm room during the past year floated up in his mind unceasingly. They had gone to class together, cultivated together, participated in the freshn assessnt together, beco champions together, eaten roasted fish together, and completed their first year in Shrek Academy together.
Ive already co back, so where are you?
The sky gradually turned dark, and the sunset left a pale red at the edge of the horizon. The glow of the sunset was very beautiful, but it was unable to illuminate the haze in Wang Dongs heart.
Late, hes already late. Hes already gone past the registration ti. He wont make it, he wont make it!
Bei Bei, Tang Ya, and Xiao Xiao had also walked over to the academys entrance. Their expressions darkened as they looked toward the gradually dimming sky.
Wang Dong didnt even know how hed returned to his dorm. By the ti he got back, the outside sky was completely black. In the end, Huo Yuhao hadnt managed to make it back in ti for him to register. At this mont, however, Wang Dong didnt bla him at all.
As long as you can co back alive, thats fine!
The thing he was most scared of was Huo Yuhao being buried in the Great Star Dou Forest! If that occurred, he wouldnt even have a corpse to bury.
While thinking, Wang Dong slowly sat on Huo Yuhaos bed, which was still covered with dust. At this mont, he seemingly forgot about his own mysophobia.
Huo Yuhao, are you still alive? Wang Dong couldnt help but clench his fists tightly. His eyes gradually reddened, and an anxiety that could drive one mad appeared in his heart.
At this very mont, the sound of rushed footsteps sounded out from the outside. This was accompanied by the sounds of a persons sowhat heavy breathing.
Wang Dong raised his head, sowhat stunned. Right after that, a person suddenly charged inside with a bang.
Im screwed, Im screwed! Im late! I ran over as quickly as I could, but I was still late. How in the world is this supposed to be good!? The youth who rushed in had an anxious look on his face as he muttered gloomily to himself. Raising his head to look at Wang Dong, he smiled, Youre back! Is today the day when registration ends? Im screwed, Im late. This wont do, I have to quickly find Teacher Zhou and think of a way to go about this during the night.
With that, the youth turned around, about to leave.
Huo Yu Hao!!! An extrely loud screech suddenly rang out, causing the leaving Huo Yuhao to feel his back sink. He felt a large force strike him, imdiately slamming him to the ground. Then, his back was struck by a series of typhoon-like fists.
Right. Was the youth whod rushed into the room not the owner of the empty bed, Huo Yuhao? Though hed exhausted all of his energy, he had still arrived late. Hed simply wasted too much ti fusing with the Ice Empress, and he didnt even know how much ti he had actually wasted. After the Skydream Iceworm helped him obtain his second soul ring, he left the icy plains. After asking soone what ti it was, he was struck dumb. He did all he could to rush back, but he was still late by a day.
Uhh Huo Yuhao wrapped his hands around his head, feeling sowhat dazed after being beaten up by Wang Dong. He felt two soft lumps of at on his butt moving non-stop, causing his weary buttocks to feel a sense of relaxation that didnt feel bad at all
You still rembered to co back? You bastard, you still rembered to co back? A stream of tears fell from Wang Dongs eyes. This was the first ti hed actually worried about soone other than his family. The instant he saw Huo Yuhao, he felt sothing in his heart shatter. This caused his repressed emotions to explode out uncontrollably.
His fists gradually lost their power, and he suddenly starting crying while sitting on Huo Yuhaos back.
Huo Yuhao was originally feeling sowhat gloomy after being beaten up by Wang Dong, but now he was struck dumb by the latters crying. As he was being pressed down onto the ground, he wasnt able to get up even if he wanted to. For a period of ti, Huo Yuhao couldnt help but feel that he was at a complete loss.
Wang Dong, what are you crying for! Whyre you acting like a girl? Huo Yuhao was very speechless.
Bastard, dont you know how worried everyone is? I even thought that youd turned into a pile of shit from a soul beast in the Great Star Dou Forest. Whyd you have to lie to us and tell us that a teacher was accompanying you to go kill soul beasts? Whyd you go by yourself?
Wang Dong was sitting on Huo Yuhao, his hands holding onto his shoulders firmly as he spoke angrily.
This the teachers cant have found out, right? Huo Yuhao asked sowhat guiltily.
What a load of rubbish. You didnt even co back. Is it even possible for them to not have found out? Wang Dong gnashed his teeth with anger, itching to bite Huo Yuhao a few tis to vent his anger.
Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly. I say, why dont you get up before we start talking. Youre not heavy, but you cant just keep pressing down on like that.
Only then did Wang Dong react. As if hed been electrocuted, he shot straight up, his face already blushing.
Huo Yuhao turned over and got up. Looking at the tear-filled Wang Dong, he knew that the latter had been worried about his safety. He couldnt help but feel moved. Scratching his head, he said apologetically, Im sorry! Ive made you worry. I didnt think that Id take this long. Its actually because I lost track of ti.
After wiping off his tears, Wang Dong glared at him fiercely. You lied to all of us. If you dont give a logical explanation to this, were not settled.
Huo Yuhao smiled mischievously. Just look at you, you look like a little weeping woman. Just where did the imposing might of an assault-type soul master go to!
Wang Dong was astonished. The tone of his voice imdiately turned deep. Just who did you call a little woman? Arent you going to look for Teacher Zhou? Quickly go. Ill follow you. Teacher Zhous also very angry. Youd better pray for luck. While speaking, he pushed Huo Yuhao out the door in a sowhat impatient manner.
