Chapter 305: The Examination Continues (Seeking Subscriptions)_1
When the two arrived at the assessment area, they found that there were only a few students and external faculty members present, including Qian Yu, who was also there, albeit engrossed in the scene of the assessment area by himself.
Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong quickly located Qian Yu, with the former saying, "There's Qian Yu, let's go, we'll head over first."
Wang Dong nodded, "Mm!"
Thus, they approached Qian Yu, but the latter showed no signs of returning to reality...
Wang Dong waved his hand in front of Qian Yu's eyes a few times, which finally jolted him back to awareness...
His heart initially fluctuated for a moment, then he forcibly suppressed it...
With a calm gaze, Qian Yu glanced at Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao and said indifferently, "Wang Dong, Yuhao, you're here too."
Huo Yuhao nodded, "Yeah! Qian Yu, there's still about two or four hours left before we start competing for the championship, isn't it early coming here?"
Qian Yu replied indifferently, "Yeah! Couldn't sleep."
Wang Dong grew more puzzled, "I mean, Qian Yu, what's with you? You feel like a different person, so cold and somewhat unapproachable!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Yu smiled, "Is that so? Maybe it's just that I've been in a bad mood these days."
...
Another hour and a half passed, and all the teachers and students hosting this freshman assessment arrived one after another...
The spectator stands were naturally filled by the senior students...
After all, every time there was a freshman assessment, these senior students could take a break from classes and only needed to focus on their own cultivation!
"Coming here early in the morning, it's finally about to start!"
"Man, this batch of freshmen is quite strong, with those capable of performing Martial Soul Fusion Skills, and that terrifying freshman who wins without even using a soul skill!"
"Yeah, I'm really looking forward to seeing who will win the championship, considering there are rich rewards!"
Tang Ya looked at Xu Sanshi in front of her and said irritably, "Xu Sanshi, could you not sit here? You're very distracting."
Xu Sanshi retorted unhappily, "What does my sitting here have to do with you? It's not your home, and besides, Bei Bei, can't you keep an eye on your Tang Ya?"
Bei Bei glanced at him and said coldly, "I also find you bothersome."
Once again facing a two-on-one situation, Xu Sanshi gritted his teeth, "Damn it! Bei Bei! You're really siding with your Tang Ya. Fine, I can't be bothered with you both."
He then took out a string of fish that looked black as charcoal from his storage soul tool...
Ever so gently, he said, "Nannan, this is the grilled fish I made myself yesterday, would you like to try?"
After discovering Jiang Nannan liked grilled fish, he had started learning how to make it himself...
Tang Ya chuckled, "Pfft! Is that grilled fish or just charcoal? Xu Sanshi, are you trying to poison Nannan?"
Bei Bei's gaze fell on the charred fish that was unappetizing to look at, "Xu Sanshi, you obviously lack the brains..."
Xu Sanshi gave them both a glare, and then reassuringly patted his chest toward Jiang Nannan, "Nannan, don't listen to them, I've already tried it yesterday, it's totally not poisoned!"
Jiang Nannan's eyes had lit up when she heard Xu Sanshi made grilled fish himself...
However, when she set eyes on the charred fish emitting a burnt smell, suppressing the nausea in her heart, she still responded indifferently, "Thanks, but it's not necessary. You should eat it yourself."
Xu Sanshi looked at the grilled fish in his hand, "Nannan, if you're worried, I'll eat it to show you!"
Having said that, he slowly took a bite and started chewing...
A few seconds later, his eyes bulged as he started to vomit, "Puh~~"
The nauseating taste immediately made the surrounding senior students move away from him...
...
"Now, let the freshman assessment continue! Please, Qian Yu, Zi Hao, Ling Ling, proceed to the first combat zone!"
"Please, Ma Ling, Guo Yu, He Weilan, proceed to the second combat zone."
...
Xiao Xiao looked slightly surprised and said, "Hey, we're not in the first few matches!"
Huo Yuhao nodded too, "Yeah! It seems like yesterday we were mostly among the higher-ranked in the bouts, but that's fine, we can watch Qian Yu and the others' battles."
Wang Dong also nodded, and then the three of them went to a spot where they could see Qian Yu's battle...
...
Just as the Shrek teacher in the assessment area finished speaking, Qian Yu turned to Zi Hao and said, "Follow me, let's crush them directly!"
Zi Hao, who was accustomed to yesterday's battle strategy, asked doubtfully, "Don't I need to protect Ling Ling?"
Qian Yu glanced at Ling Ling and then said, "No need, just keep them too busy to attack her!"
Ling Ling also noticed that Qian Yu was acting differently today, and although puzzled, she still spoke up, "Zi Hao, you go up with Qian Yu. He dealt with most of the battle yesterday by himself!"
Zi Hao nodded, "Got it!"
He then quickly released his Martial Soul, and the first yellow soul ring at his feet lit up...
His entire body was enveloped in Rhinoceros Armor...
Immediately after, the two of them charged towards the trio in front of them...
The trio opposite them seemed to be startled by Qian Yu and Zi Hao's actions!
One of the male students exclaimed in surprise, "What? They're charging at us just like that, are they seeking death?"
Despite saying that, he still released his own Martial Soul and Soul Rings!
Another female student gritted her teeth as two soul rings rose at her feet...
She said angrily, "Charging in so recklessly, do they not take us seriously? We must teach them a lesson!"
The other male student drew his Longsword, and as two soul rings slowly appeared beneath his feet, the corners of his mouth lifted, "Looks like this fight is going to be an easy win! Lin, control their movements!"
The male student nodded, and his second soul ring suddenly lit up...
Second Soul Skill, Frost Tunes!
The next moment, a series of pale blue liquid sprouted from his body and fell forward...
When it hit the ground, it quickly spread out, instantly covering several meters around it...
And Qian Yu and Zi Hao, stepping into it, immediately slowed down!
The swordsman turned to the female student and said, "Now's the time, Yu, I'll hold them off, you quickly cast an area soul skill!"
As he spoke, his second soul ring lit up, and a white glow suffused his blade...
The next moment, the white light turned into a blast of Sword Qi aimed at the charging Qian Yu and Zi Hao...
Qian Yu decisively said, "Zi Hao, dodge and keep attacking from the side!"
"Got it!" Zi Hao swiftly changed direction...
The white Sword Qi came at Qian Yu...
Qian Yu's eyes narrowed, and a strong pressure burst from him instantly smashing the incoming white Sword Qi...
The swordsman's eyes widened, "What? Something's off with this guy, Yu!"
"Understood!" The student known as Yu lit up her second soul skill...
Second Soul Skill, Melting Spray!
The charging Qian Yu suddenly found a red circular pattern appearing under his feet, and then, scorching flames erupted from it!
Qian Yu looked at the flames coming up under his feet, and his brow furrowed slightly, as he was quickly engulfed by the fire...
Down below, Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao watching Qian Yu being enveloped by the flames couldn't help but cry out, "Qian Yu!!"
