NOVEL NEXT Chapter 83: Chapter 83
**Chapter 83**
As soon as he got the chance, Du Bu Si started to mock Xuan Lao again.
Because the two of them had been holding grudges for a long time, Du Bu Si spoke mercilessly this time, his words dripping with sarcasm.
Xuan Lao was naturally annoyed. He stood there, gritting his teeth, his old face flushed with anger, and even his thin, dry hands clenched into fists due to excessive rage, producing a "clucking" sound.
But Xuan Lao would not continue to sit idly by. He snorted coldly at Du Bu Si.
"What does this have to do with you? What I said before was all out of my concern for Yuhao! When did I say he couldn't succeed? I just thought his approach was not safe!"
Du Bu Si sneered again after hearing this, "You know what you're thinking, and I'm too lazy to keep arguing with you here. But do you think this is the first time I've known you, Xuan Zi? I know your temperament very well. As for concern? I didn't see any from you."
"The attitude of your former vice president, Xian Lin'er, is what we call concern. As for you, Xuan Zi, all I see in your words is pessimism!"
Du Bu Si mocked Xuan Zi one last time before falling silent.
The soul masters in the gap between the planes reflected on Xuan Zi's earlier statements. Indeed, they saw a strong sense of pessimism in his previous remarks. Not a single word he spoke conveyed any genuine concern, yet some things were better understood than said.
After all, they had no relationship with Huo Yuhao in the parallel world and no grudges with Xuan Lao, so they had no reason to offend him over this matter. Knowing that this person could be troublesome, they chose to exercise caution in the future.
Thus, many of the soul masters in the gap continued to focus on the screen.
At that moment, on the screen:
[That night, Wang Dong'er did not practice soul power compression.]
[She continued to work on half of the Baji Collapse.]
[Wang Dong'er planned to wait until she had learned all her self-created soul skills before tackling other techniques.]
[So she practiced until late at night.]
[When she finally felt sleepy, she went to Huo Yuhao's bed and fell asleep.]
[Early the next morning, after breakfast, the two headed off to Shrek Academy for classes again.]
[This routine continued for some time.]
[Huo Yuhao continued to pay close attention in class, taking books home to study after school.]
[As a result, after another month, Huo Yuhao's theoretical knowledge had greatly increased.]
[Additionally, he successfully raised his soul power level to level 29.]
[On this day,]
[Mu Jin began to introduce the rules of the freshman competition in class.]
[It had been three months since the start of school, and all first-year students at Shrek were about to face the most important assessment.]
[This assessment would determine which students in their class would stay and who would go.]
[Therefore, Mu Jin explained the rules clearly, ensuring all students listened attentively.]
[Once she finished detailing the rules, she started dividing the students into teams.]
[The teams for the freshman competition consist of three-person groups, so Mu Jin needed to arrange them accordingly.]
[She had already predetermined these teams, so she merely had to read off the names.]
["The students whose names I read next will participate in this assessment as a team. Please listen carefully."]
[Mu Jin took out a list, stood on the podium, and quickly began to read.]
["Team One: Yang Yaoyao, Sun Liu, You En! Yang Yaoyao is the captain among the three!"]
["Team Two..."]
[Mu Jin continued speaking at the podium. The students whose names were called immediately moved to different positions and began discussing in hushed tones.]
[Wang Dong'er was nervous the entire time.]
[She didn't want to be an enemy of Huo Yuhao; she wanted to be his teammate.]
[However, Mu Jin hadn't called her or Huo Yuhao's names yet, leaving her feeling extremely uneasy.]
[Waiting anxiously, beads of sweat began forming on her forehead.]
[At that moment, Mu Jin finally called out Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er's names.]
["Team Nine: Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao! Huo Yuhao is the captain among the three!"]
[Upon hearing Mu Jin's voice, Wang Dong'er sighed in relief.]
[She looked at Huo Yuhao beside her, her eyes shining with joy.]
[Huo Yuhao smiled back, saying, "Now we are invincible. We are together again."]
[Wang Dong'er nodded proudly, "Of course, I will help you win!"]
[Huo Yuhao chuckled at this, and just then, a girl named Xiao Xiao approached.]
[Xiao Xiao had originally been a student in Zhou Yi's class.]
[But it seemed that their last class transfer inspired her, and she subsequently developed a dislike for Zhou Yi.]
[So, she transferred to Huo Yuhao's class some time ago, and this was the first time she was speaking to him and his classmates.]
["Hello! I'm Xiao Xiao. Please guide me during this competition!"]
[Xiao Xiao stepped forward with a smile on her face, actively trying to show her goodwill.]
[Huo Yuhao responded with a smile, "Sure, let's cooperate well."]
In the gap between the planes, after seeing this scene, Xiao Xiao hugged Wang Dong'er.
She playfully snuggled against Wang Dong'er and said, "Hehe, Dong'er, I didn't expect our bond to be so deep! So many things have happened in the parallel world, and we still end up in the same team."
Wang Dong'er replied with a smile, "That's right! It looks like we can become good friends in the parallel world!"
Huo Yuhao chimed in, "But if I remember correctly, Xiao Xiao didn't initially treat you as a friend; she was just after your body."
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but blush at this, glaring at Huo Yuhao as she retorted, "Yuhao, don't bring that up! Who knew Dong'er was a girl?"
Everyone laughed at this.
Wang Dong'er continued, "This time, we'll dominate the competition. Back then, the three of us were able to win the championship."
"Now that Yuhao and I from the parallel world have become so powerful, the championship is in the bag."
On the other side, Mu Jin couldn't help but chuckle.
She reflected, "I remember back in Zhou Yi's class that other students were not particularly notable and hadn't performed well in this freshman competition."
"In the whole class, only Yuhao, Xiao Xiao, and Wang Dong'er were exceptional."
"But in the parallel world, they all ended up on my side. What could Zhou Yi do about that?"
"This is going to be interesting."
The more Mu Jin thought about it, the more she looked forward to seeing Zhou Yi from the parallel world being defeated.
Bibi Dong, on the other hand, showed a hint of curiosity.
"Speaking of which, it has been a long time since I saw Huo Yuhao from the parallel world in action. Although I know his current soul power is at level 29, I wonder about his true combat power. This makes me very curious."
"It just so happens that this freshman competition can also serve as a test."
