This was the most plausible excuse he could think of.

Both he and Wang Dong had witnessed the power of the Golden Road. It might have some disparity compared to Shui Wuya's attacks, but it shouldn't be significant.

"After the fusion of martial souls, all the soul power is within your body. This situation has never occurred before..." Old Mu furrowed his brows slightly, but he didn't feel that Huo Yuhao was hiding anything.

At present, Huo Yuhao's explanation was indeed very reasonable.

Although it wasn't the awakening of his original martial soul, which was somewhat disappointing, having twin martial souls was even more surprising than having just one.

"By the way, what year is the additional soul ring attached to your second martial soul?" Xuan Lao inquired.

The value of twin martial souls also depended on the years of the soul rings.

"I currently don't have any attached soul rings," Huo Yuhao truthfully replied.

Forget about not having any soul rings; he hadn't even confirmed his martial soul yet.

Both Xuan Lao and Mu Lao's eyes lit up simultaneously. Not having any attached soul rings was a good thing!

Twin martial souls inherently had slower cultivation progress, so it was explainable that Huo Yuhao, who was not even at the twentieth level of soul power yet, didn't have any.

Although the first soul ring of his primary martial soul was from a ten-year-old spirit beast, the fact that his second martial soul didn't have any attached soul rings indicated tremendous potential.

"Can we see your second martial soul?" Xuan Lao asked.

Huo Yuhao refused Xuan Lao and Mu Lao, stating only that he couldn't release his martial soul for some reason.

However, Xuan Lao and Mu Lao didn't dwell on it much. There were precedents in history where the second martial soul couldn't be released, but manifesting such an attack clearly indicated awakening.

That was enough.

"Although you obtained second place, according to the academy's tradition, you can request assistance from the academy to obtain a soul ring that best suits you."

"Since your second martial soul doesn't have any attached soul rings yet, don't rush to attach them. I can decide. After the academy helps you obtain the second soul ring of your primary martial soul, we can assist you in obtaining the most suitable soul ring for your second martial soul," Mu Lao said slowly to Huo Yuhao.

Meanwhile, at the dueling arena,

Shui Wuya paid no heed to Huo Yuhao being taken away.

With Tianmeng's intervention during the freshman assessment, Huo Yuhao, who wasn't initially valued by Shrek Academy, naturally drew attention and gained recognition.

If Huo Yuhao had won this match instead of Shui Wuya, then Shui Wuya would indeed have reason to worry.

But now, he was quite indifferent.

Having conversed with the Shui Bing'er from ten thousand years ago, Shui Wuya was well aware that his potential was not inferior to Huo Yuhao's. As history continued to change, his enhancements would only become stronger.

Back in the classroom, Shui Wuya met Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, who were waiting for him.

Both of them looked at him with complex expressions.

"Squad leader, did you never exert your full strength during our sparring sessions?" Dai Huabin couldn't help but ask first.

He could accept that Shui Wuya was powerful.

However, if Shui Wuya hadn't forced out his full strength even during their fusion martial soul techniques, it would be quite disheartening.

Fusion martial soul techniques combined the soul power of two soul masters, yielding effects far greater than the sum of their parts.

Originally just a Soul master, he could definitely injure a Soul Elder through fusion martial soul techniques.

If even this couldn't draw out Shui Wuya's full strength, then what was the use of this fusion martial soul technique?

Despite having only three soul rings, during the match, Shui Wuya had only used his first and second soul skills, yet he had still displayed remarkable prowess.

"I'm different from you guys," Shui Wuya glanced at Dai Huabin before finally speaking.

Dai Huabin was speechless.

"Because you're a genius," Zhu Lu added, "No, you're a monster."

Shui Wuya didn't refute. "Isn't Shrek Academy also known as the academy of monsters?"

"Ten thousand years ago, it only recruited monsters."

With that said, Shui Wuya walked into the classroom, glanced around, and placed some of the pills given by Yan Shaozhe on the table.

"Your soul power must have been drained by my cold energy. These pills can quickly replenish your soul power. Take some." 

"Meditation won't improve your soul power if it's not full."

Having said that, Shui Wuya left.

The freshman assessment ended today, and the weather was excellent the next day.

All freshmen gathered at Shrek Plaza, awaiting the next round of class allocations.

This time, the classes would be divided into four groups based on everyone's future orientation.

Class One: Assault and Control Systems.

Class Two: Agility Attack and Defense Systems.

Class Three: Support Systems.

Class Four: Culinary Systems.

The allocation of classes naturally varied based on the different orientations of the soul masters.

Due to the high elimination rate, many freshmen were now divided into four classes. However, the combined number of students in Classes Three and Four was still less than the number in Class One.

The number of soul masters in Culinary and Support Systems had always been the least.

Shui Wuya glanced around silently, waiting for Du Weilun to announce the top three in the assessment.

In front of him stood many teachers. Shui Wuya spotted Zhou Yi and his own class teacher.

There was also Wang Yan, who was the referee for Shui Wuya's final match.

Of course, he was also the one who had nearly been frozen, trying to get close to Shui Wuya.

Wang Yan noticed Shui Wuya's gaze and nodded with a smile.

Du Weilun opened the folder in his hand and began announcing the list, "First, the third place goes to Team Huang Chutian."

The third place was the same as in the original, but the second place was now Team Huo Yuhao.

"Although they got second place, the strength they displayed is equivalent to championship level compared to the past two years," Du Weilun smiled, gesturing for Huo Yuhao's team to come up on stage.

Shui Wuya noticed a detail.

In the original, it was the Wang Dong team that was mentioned, but now it was the Huo Yuhao team.

Obviously, the academy had noticed Huo Yuhao's potential.

Thunderous applause erupted from the audience, and Huo Yuhao's face flushed slightly.

"Finally, our first place goes to the team that achieved absolute dominance through individual strength, Team Shui Wuya."

The audience erupted into prolonged applause!

Shui Wuya led the way to the stage.

As Dai Huabin passed by Huo Yuhao, a substantive flame of resentment flickered once again in Huo Yuhao's eyes. Both Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao quickly grabbed his arms.

Fortunately, Dai Huabin didn't recognize Huo Yuhao's identity.

Then came the announcement of rewards for the freshmen.

As expected, Huo Yuhao received the status of core disciple in the outer courtyard, and Shui Wuya naturally did too.

Huo Yuhao appeared extremely excited, but Shui Wuya remained expressionless, even taking the time to observe Huo Yuhao.

His treatment in the academy was no longer inferior to that of inner courtyard disciples; Yan Shaozhe had paved the way for him through many backdoors.

However, all this was insignificant.

Compared to the resources left to him by the Shui Bing'er from ten thousand years ago, these rewards were merely a drop in the ocean.

After the class allocation was over, Du Weilun kept Shui Wuya alone and gave him a special pouch.

Inside it was the truly precious reward of the freshman assessment.

A soul bone.
