Chapter 45 Bai Zhouyi visits late at night; is it time for Huo Yuhao to acquire the soul spirit?
The soul masters of the underworld were all staring intently at the sky like geese stretching their necks.
"Who could it be in the middle of the night?"
Various speculations flew around, and everyone was eagerly awaiting the figure behind the door.
[In the scene depicted on the screen, Huo Yuhao wiped the sweat from his brow, walked to the door, and turned the handle.]
"Click."
The door opened with a click.
Outside the door stood a tall, slender woman.
She wore a well-tailored black business suit, her long, straight legs encased in semi-sheer black stockings, and a pair of elegant high heels.
Her long hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her exquisitely beautiful face was frameless, adorned with rimless glasses, exuding an intellectual yet aloof air.
[It was Zhou Yi from the White World.]
At this moment, she was holding a flat soul tool that was shimmering with a faint light in her hand, and her expression was slightly hurried.
"Holy crap! It's Teacher Zhou!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, although I've seen it many times before, every time I see Zhou Yi in this white world, I can't help but sigh... Is this really the same person?"
"Yeah, that old lady Zhou around here wears a mask all day and acts like a ghost, her voice is like a broken gong. Look at that woman over there, in black stockings! Those legs, that aura... there's no comparison!"
"And because it was after get off work, Ms. Zhou dressed even more sexily..."
"Teacher Zhou, you smell so good..."
Inside Shrek Academy, many male students blushed as they looked at Bai Zhouyi on the sky.
[In the scene, Huo Yuhao was clearly somewhat surprised.]
"Teacher Zhou?" Huo Yuhao quickly stepped aside. "It's so late, why are you..."
Zhou Yi didn't stand on ceremony and strode into the dormitory. She didn't sit down, but turned to Huo Yuhao and asked directly:
"Level 20 already?"
Huo Yuhao was slightly taken aback, then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "You...how did you know? I only recently broke through to the next level."
Zhou Yi raised the tablet-shaped soul tool in her hand, on which a string of complex data was flashing.
"You just used the testing device in the dorm to measure the data, right?"
"To keep track of each of your cultivation progress in real time, all dormitory test data will be transmitted to my terminal simultaneously."
Zhou Yi adjusted her glasses and said calmly, "I noticed your soul power fluctuation curve spiked abnormally and stabilized at level 20, so I came over immediately."
Huo Yuhao suddenly realized, "I see... that testing device has this function too."
But then, as if remembering something, his expression became somewhat moved: "Teacher... it's already late at night. You... are still paying attention to our data?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi gave him a somewhat strange look.
"Is there a problem with this?"
"There are so many people in your class, and everyone's martial spirit characteristics, cultivation progress, and physical condition are different."
Zhou Yi said matter-of-factly, "If I don't spend more time in the evening organizing data and analyzing each person's bottlenecks, how can I tailor my teaching to each student's individual needs during class?"
"Are we supposed to wait until class starts to ask them one by one? That would be such a waste of time!"
These words, spoken casually, struck like a heavy blow to the hearts of all educators in the underworld.
The Dark World, Shrek's Outer Court Office.
Zhou Yi, who had been mocking Bai Zhouyi for "dressing like a prostitute," suddenly turned ashen-faced.
Across from her, Mu Jin, who had always regarded her as her mortal enemy, let out a merciless sneer.
"Oh my, listen to what they're saying!"
Mu Jin said sarcastically, "'Teaching according to aptitude,' 'not wasting class time'... Teacher Zhou, don't you always claim to be the most responsible teacher?"
"Why is Professor Zhou, who lives in the world during the day, working overtime to analyze data every night?"
"You..." Zhou Yi trembled with anger, pointing at Mu Jin, "What do you know! She's just putting on an act!"
Mu Jin looked at her coldly, "Pretending? Who's really pretending, I have no idea."
Zhou Yi opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but found herself speechless.
Because the facts on the sky speak louder than words.
[In the scene, Huo Yuhao was also moved by Zhou Yi's dedication.]
"Teacher, you've worked so hard..."
"Alright, alright, stop being so sentimental. This is what a teacher should do." Zhou Yi waved her hand, interrupting his emotional outburst. "Release your martial spirit and use a skill so I can see how stable your aura is."
["yes!"]
Huo Yuhao immediately did as instructed.
[He closed his eyes slightly, instantly activating his shared mental detection. A shimmering white soul power fluctuation emanated from his body; although its intensity was only level twenty, its solidity was quite impressive.]
Zhou Yi carefully sensed it for a moment, then nodded: "Hmm, not bad. The foundation is very solid; the rapid upgrades haven't caused any instability."
She put away the tablet, looked at Huo Yuhao, and spoke with a hint of barely perceptible admiration:
"Now that we're already level 20, we can't afford to delay any longer."
"I'll contact the person in charge of the spirits when I get back and reserve a spot for you."
"Get a good rest tonight and get yourself in good shape. Tomorrow morning, wait for me at the school gate. Now that you've reached level 20, it's time to acquire your first Soul Spirit."
These words caused another uproar in the underworld.
"Holy crap?! A spirit?!"
"Wait! Did I hear that right? Zhou Yi said she'd help him contact the Soul Tower? And she wants him to go first thing tomorrow morning?"
"This...this is so awesome!"
One commoner Soul Master was so envious his eyes almost popped out: "Here, we've reached a bottleneck. We either have to spend a lot of money to hire a Soul Hunting Team, or beg and plead to find an academy teacher to lead the team. If we're unlucky, we have to wait several months to gather enough people before we can set off."
"And what happened on their end? The teacher personally came to their door in the middle of the night to notify them, even helping them make an appointment, and then sent them over to retrieve the soul first thing the next morning?!"
"The most crucial thing is…" another Soul Master swallowed hard, "Judging from this, it seems like it's free? Or maybe the academy covers everything?"
"Huo Yuhao is still a freshman after all! To even take care of a freshman's soul spirit, this White Shrek Academy is too generous!"
At this moment, countless low-level Soul Masters in the underworld felt a surge of intense envy and admiration.
Seriously, in the white world of Shrek, every arrangement is flawless!
[In the scene, after giving her instructions, Zhou Yi hurriedly left.]
Watching Zhou Yi's departing figure, Huo Yuhao clenched his fists, his eyes overflowing with gratitude.
"Thank you, Teacher Zhou..."
After closing the door, Huo Yuhao stopped cultivating. Just as Zhou Yi had said, tomorrow was a crucial moment for acquiring the soul spirit, and he needed to maintain his best mental state.
He took a quick shower to wash away the sweat, then lay down on the soft bed.
Although physically exhausted, he was unusually energetic.
"Soul..."
Huo Yuhao stared at the ceiling, muttering to himself.
Although he had met Beibei before and read about this newly developed Shrek Academy system in books, he was still somewhat apprehensive when it came time to actually acquire it himself.
"I wonder... what kind of spirit I will receive?"
"Waaaaah, I can't sleep..."
