Chapter 124 Teacher, I want to play in the competition!
Huo Yuhao's suggestion not to participate in the competition was agreed upon by his homeroom teacher, Zhang Lexuan, and he originally planned to leave.
But Zhang Lexuan's next words made his body stiffen slightly for a moment.
Dai Huabin.
He was all too familiar with that name.
It's so familiar that it's etched into my bones, so familiar that every time I think of it, an indescribable emotion wells up inside me.
He suddenly raised his head, looked directly at Zhang Lexuan, and asked, "Teacher, who is this Dai Huabin?"
Zhang Lexuan was slightly taken aback by his sudden reaction, but still said truthfully, "He comes from the lineage of the White Tiger Duke of the Star Luo Empire, and his martial soul is the Evil-Eyed White Tiger."
"Among this year's freshmen, besides you, he should be the strongest."
Huo Yuhao's hands clenched tightly at his sides.
A complex glint flashed in his eyes as he thought to himself, "It really was him!"
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
He raised his head, looked at Zhang Lexuan again, and said, "Teacher, I would like to participate in this year's freshman assessment."
"what?"
Zhang Lexuan opened her mouth, a hint of surprise flashing in her beautiful eyes.
She was a little confused as to why Huo Yuhao had suddenly changed his mind.
He looked uninterested just a moment ago, why has he suddenly changed his mind?
However, she was only surprised for a moment.
Huo Yuhao was a freshman, so it was only natural for him to participate in the freshman assessment.
The reason he wasn't allowed to participate before was because he didn't want to participate, and Zhang Lexuan, as the homeroom teacher, respected the student's choice.
But now that Huo Yuhao wants to participate, she naturally has no reason to stop him.
Zhang Lexuan snapped out of her daze and nodded. "Since you want to participate, hurry back and form a team. Just remember to give me the roster tomorrow."
"Okay, teacher."
After saying this, Huo Yuhao turned around and walked towards the classroom.
Zhang Lexuan stood there, watching the receding figure, her brows furrowed slightly.
It was Dai Huabin who made him change his mind.
But... what's the connection between them?
……
Huo Yuhao walked steadily toward the classroom.
He took each step steadily and firmly, but only he knew the turmoil churning within his heart at that moment.
Childhood memories involuntarily surfaced in my mind.
Those past memories, which had been deliberately suppressed deep in my heart, are now surging out like a flood bursting its banks.
He remembered that grand mansion, those cold eyes, and how weak and helpless he had once been…
He is no longer the helpless boy who was bullied when he was young.
Dai Huabin, who used to bully him at will, was no match for him when he was six years old.
At that time, he didn't even use his full strength, just a slight punishment, which made that arrogant and domineering boy suffer a hidden loss, but at that time he didn't even dare to say that he was the one who made the move.
Because at that time, he wasn't strong enough.
At that time, he was still with his mother, trying to escape that prison.
Because if he had exposed himself then, they would have faced the Duchess's furious revenge.
So he endured it.
He took his mother and quietly left, going far away to live in anonymity.
But now...
He didn't expect to be so angry when he heard the name again.
That anger, buried in my heart for so many years, has never been extinguished.
It was just being suppressed, suppressed, pressed deep inside, waiting for the moment to break through the soil.
And now, that moment has arrived.
After learning that Dai Huabin was also a freshman at Shrek Academy, an idea uncontrollably flooded into his mind.
He has to take the freshman assessment.
It wasn't for first place, for any honor, or to prove how strong I am.
He simply wanted to defeat Dai Huabin fair and square!
He wanted to tell the boy who had bullied him so badly in front of everyone...
You are no longer worthy to be my opponent.
You're not even worthy of my attention anymore.
This is not only his revenge against Dai Huabin, but also his declaration of war against that duchess!
Many things will not be forgotten with the passage of time.
Those hurts, those humiliations, are forever etched into my bones, I can never forget them.
He would eventually have to take his mother and seek justice for himself!
His current cultivation level and strength may not be enough to contend with that duchess.
But now that he's at Shrek Academy, he has the confidence to publicly reveal his identity!
Upon entering the classroom again, the students of Class One were still running around and chattering away.
Instead of announcing the group assignments based on the students' martial spirit characteristics, Zhang Lexuan chose to let the new students form their own teams.
For these children who have only known each other for three months, forming a team that satisfies all three members is not an easy task.
Some were arguing about who should be the captain, some were debating whose martial spirit was more suitable for teamwork, and others were already arguing heatedly...

"Where have you been?"
As soon as Huo Yuhao entered the classroom, a voice rang in his ears.
Wang Dong jogged over, a hint of curiosity on his delicate face.
Huo Yuhao glanced at him, but his mood remained low due to the sudden news about Dai Huabin.
Those memories surged up, like a tide that was hard to suppress.
His tone lowered, and he replied briefly, "I need to talk to the teacher about something."
Wang Dong didn't think too much about it. He blinked, then suddenly leaned closer and asked, "For the freshman assessment, do you want to be on my team?"
Those beautiful eyes sparkled with anticipation.
With Huo Yuhao's strength, he could easily defeat a team of three even if he were alone.
So it doesn't matter to him who his teammates are.
However... if this teammate were his current roommate, plus his future "wife," it would indeed seem better.
Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong, the somber expression finally easing somewhat. He asked, "There's still one person left. Have you made a choice?"
Wang Dong did not reply.
Just then, a figure darted over from not far away and appeared in front of Huo Yuhao, bouncing and skipping.
"It's me!"
The voice was clear and lovely, with a touch of playfulness.
Huo Yuhao turned his head to look.
Before me was a little girl with a round face, big eyes, two cute braids, and two little tiger teeth showing when she smiled.
She was not tall, and wearing a white dress, she looked like a porcelain doll that had stepped out of a painting.
Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow. So it was Xiao Xiao.
Huo Yuhao was naturally very familiar with Xiao Xiao.
Of course, this "familiarity" does not refer to the present, but rather to what he learned from historical records of later generations.
Although Huo Yuhao is the class monitor, and although Huo Yuhao is stronger.
But at this moment, Xiao Xiao's gaze was clearly being glanced at Wang Dong more often.
Those big, round eyes would glance at Wang Dong every now and then, then quickly look away, pretending to be nonchalant.
But before long, you can't help but glance at it again.
Those little expressions and thoughts were practically written all over their faces; they couldn't be hidden.
Huo Yuhao took all of this into account and knew that this little girl was clearly here for Wang Dong.
Children on the mainland are indeed precocious.
At the age of eleven or twelve, they were already openly discussing love.
Huo Yuhao's gaze involuntarily drifted to Wang Dong, who was standing to the side.
Her delicate face appeared even more fair and jade-like under the classroom lights.
Her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and her features were so exquisite that they looked like a carefully sculpted work of art.
At that moment, Wang Dong was talking to Xiao Xiao with a faint smile on his face. That smile, when it fell into Huo Yuhao's eyes, inexplicably made him feel better.
His expression softened, and a genuine smile appeared on his face.
All the turbulent emotions and surging memories in my heart seemed to be soothed at this moment.
Little did he know that Wang Dong, this excessively handsome young man, was actually a girl disguised as a boy!
Huo Yuhao's lips curled up slightly, forming a meaningful arc.
When Huo Yuhao looked at Xiao Xiao again, a hint of... sympathy appeared in his eyes.
This adorable little girl's little schemes were destined to end in vain.
Huo Yuhao silently mourned for her for a few seconds in his heart.
