Chapter 29: The Familiar Running Laps Again
Upon arriving at the classroom, Huo Yuhao returned to his prestigious seat, but to his surprise, Wang Dong also took the initiative to sit next to him.
The classroom of Class 1, freshmen. Ten minutes before the afternoon class bell rang, all ninety-nine students were already seated, and the classroom was unusually quiet. Clearly, with Tailong as a precedent, none of the students present wanted to be expelled for some trivial matter.
However, not long after they sat down, the school bell rang, and Zhou Yi called them all to Shrek Square.
A pile of iron chains had somehow appeared in Shrek Square. At Zhou Yi's command, the trainees stood in neat rows.
"Wang Dong," Zhou Yi called out.
"Yes." Wang Dong stepped forward.
Zhou Yi addressed all the students: "I've reviewed your entrance exam scores, and combined them with this morning's tests. So far, Wang Dong's cultivation level is the highest among all of you. Therefore, I hereby announce that from this moment forward, he will be the class monitor of Class One of the freshmen. This position is dynamic; whoever has the ability to defeat him can take his place. Do you all understand?"
"Understood." Several male students, confident in their abilities, looked at Wang Dong with eager anticipation. The female students, however, seemed to look at Wang Dong with even gentler eyes.
Zhou Yi pointed to the iron chains in front of her. "These are iron suits, specially designed to improve physical fitness. Each of you will wear one. After you put them on, start running laps around the square. From now until the bell rings to signal the end of get out of class. You can still use your soul power, but you cannot use soul skills."
"There's one point I want to emphasize again. In my class, elimination doesn't only happen during assessments; it can happen at any time..."
"I know you are all geniuses from the entire Douluo Continent, but Shrek Academy has no shortage of geniuses. Shrek Academy aims to cultivate monsters, and in my opinion, none of you here today possess the talent to be called monsters. Therefore, all of you here are at risk of being eliminated..."
"Since that's the case, then show some monstrous willpower to prove you're worthy of staying at Shrek! Now, everyone put on your iron armor! Prove to me, to Shrek, that you are the monster Shrek is looking to cultivate!"
As she spoke, Zhou Yi flicked her toe, and an iron suit made entirely of thick iron chains appeared in front of Wang Dong. Wang Dong quickly took it and put it on.
When he put on the iron armor, his expression changed slightly. This iron armor weighed at least thirty pounds!
Hearing Zhou Yi's words, the trainees were still unconvinced and rushed up to put on the iron armor, wanting to perform well to prove themselves. However, as soon as they put on the iron armor, the trainees' expressions changed.
The male trainees fared slightly better; although they found it heavy, it was still within an acceptable range. In contrast, most of the female trainees paled after putting on the heavy iron suits.
Huo Yuhao leisurely mingled at the back of the group of trainees, being among the last to receive the iron armor. He picked it up and weighed it in his hand, finally gaining a full understanding of its 30-pound weight.
Everyone has carried water before, right? A 500ml bottle of mineral water weighs a little over a pound, so 30 pounds is basically equivalent to carrying a case of about 6 bottles of water, which doesn't seem like much.
However, for twelve-year-old Huo Yuhao to complete a four-hour long-distance run while wearing a thirty-pound iron suit without a break is not as simple as carrying a box or two of water for a hundred or a thousand meters.
Zhou Yi said coldly, "I know that many of you want to tell me this is unfair because there are inherent differences between the bodies of boys and girls, and the physical qualities of weapon spirit masters, beast spirit masters, and battle spirit masters are also different. But I want to tell you that in my class, everyone is treated equally. Think about it, if you were on the battlefield, would the enemy spare you from killing you just because you are a woman or because you are a weapon spirit master? Now, begin. Run laps."
Wang Dong took the lead and ran ahead. Whether it was his martial spirit or his soul power, he was the best among the students. Although he was wearing iron armor, his speed was not reduced at all.
The male students who considered themselves no weaker than Wang Dong and wanted to challenge him also rushed out quickly, following closely behind.
Although Huo Yuhao was too lazy to get involved in the battle among these geniuses, he still ran at full speed because he wanted to push his body to its limit as soon as possible.
Huo Yuhao's full-speed sprint, coupled with the fact that those students with level 20 soul power and good physical fitness were deliberately conserving their energy, meant that Huo Yuhao, whose soul power was only level 11, was forced to keep up with the group of competitive guys.
"You little punks!" Wang Dong was naturally not going to be polite to those guys behind him who were trying to challenge his position as class monitor. He used all his physical abilities to leave them far behind, not giving them any chance.
Soon, Wang Dong had looped the slowest girl once.
Clearly, the girl who got ringed wasn't an isolated case. One student after another was ringed by Wang Dong, as were the boys who were trying to compete with him for the class monitor position.
By the time Wang Dong had finished thirteen laps, he had already lapped the slowest girl by two laps. At this point, Wang Dong was also feeling tired and began to slow down, intending to run at a steady pace until the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class.
"Strange..." Wang Dong felt like he had missed something...
"Huh?!" Wang Dong suddenly remembered that after all those loops, she hadn't seen her roommate Huo Yuhao at all. In other words, she hadn't managed to loop Huo Yuhao even once?
How is that possible? You have to know that her soul power level is more than twice that of Huo Yuhao, not to mention the total amount of soul power!
Wang Dong looked back in disbelief, only to see Huo Yuhao, with a ferocious expression, following behind the group of guys trying to challenge his position as class monitor, a hundred meters behind him. Although it looked like he was having a hard time, his speed was surprisingly fast...
"What is this guy... doing?" Wang Dong couldn't understand why Huo Yuhao was pushing himself so hard just to run. Just by looking at his expression, you could tell how difficult it was for Huo Yuhao to maintain that pace...
"Tch..." Unable to figure it out, Wang Dong stopped thinking about it. He simply gave up the idea of slowing down, wiped the sweat from his face, and continued running at his initial speed.
Huo Yuhao, at a mere level eleven, didn't slow down, so how could she possibly slow down!
"Huo Yuhao..." Zhou Yi, who was watching from the side, also noticed Huo Yuhao's abnormality and was shocked by his actions.
Don't think it's easy for Huo Yuhao to follow behind those guys with level 20 soul power. Sometimes, if you can't outrun them, you simply can't; you don't even have the right to follow them.
Huo Yuhao's actions perfectly demonstrated his explosive power. In a state of recklessness, Huo Yuhao was able to barely keep up with the speed of a student with a soul power level of 20!
This is quite remarkable. This action shows that when Huo Yuhao reaches level 20, he will be able to perform even better than these students!
"It's no wonder that Fan Yu values this child so much..."
