Chapter 293 Midnight Secret Meeting, Passing on Ultimate Skills; What is the New Male God of the Academy?
The night was as dark as a veil, enveloping the entire Shrek Academy.
The campus was extremely quiet in the early hours of the morning, with only the guiding streetlights on both sides of the road still emitting a soft glow.
In a dense jungle, Xu Lizhi ate another light and airy xiaolongbao to reduce his weight and achieve the effect of lightening his body.
However, the lightness in his body did nothing to alleviate the growing unease in his heart.
The group assignments announced in the afternoon had already left Xu Lizhi feeling extremely frustrated.
In preparation for the upcoming special assessment at Qiankun Wenqing Valley, the academy has arranged to group all students into groups based on a single gender.
This directly resulted in him no longer being able to follow Xinglan around and provide her with the help he could as he used to.
Although Xu Lizhi was disappointed by this, he could barely accept it.
Why?
Did Xinglan really leave the student dormitory alone in the middle of the night, just as she had worsted her suspicions during the day?
Looking at the figure walking alone on the road in the distance, especially the direction she was heading, it was clearly leading to the residential area where the teachers lived.
Xu Lizhi, who had been staking out outside the dormitory for most of the night, unconsciously clenched his fists.
He dared not think any deeper, the images that might appear made him feel suffocated.
He could only force himself to stay far behind Ye Xinglan.
He kept praying in his heart, hoping that it was all just a coincidence.
Hopefully, things haven't gotten to the worst point yet, and it's not what he imagines.
Inside the villa's laboratory, Huo Yuhao looked at the three girls struggling in the ocean of knowledge in front of him, almost drowning, and sighed helplessly.
I had already told myself to control the pace of the lecture, but today, when explaining the construction of the core magic array of the battle armor, I couldn't help but expand on some more content.
Incidentally, the newly optimized battle armor design by Yuan En Ye Hui was used as an example for a thorough and easy-to-understand explanation.
As a result, we accidentally exceeded the scheduled end time again.
Seeing the girls' tired expressions, and remembering the group assignments announced that afternoon, Huo Yuhao was still somewhat uneasy and asked, "Yun'er, Siduo, I saw your group lists this afternoon. Your groups only have five people in total, and there isn't even a single blacksmith. Is that really appropriate?"
Dai Yun'er shook her little head, as if trying to shake off the knotted knowledge in her head, and said crisply, "Don't worry, we've discussed this issue. Gu Yue said that since we'll be competing with the second-year students for those precious assessment spots anyway, there's no need to form a standard seven-person team."
"That would not only be troublesome to form a team, but also require a lot of effort to coordinate the secondary professions of other people and the team's cooperation, which is too time-consuming."
As she spoke, she waved her hand dismissively and added, "As for Xiaoyan, although her mecha design skills are only at the first level, she is Gu Yue's best friend after all, and we have cooperated many times before, so we have a good understanding of each other and it doesn't matter."
Oh, by the way, Xiaoyan heard that we have extra tutoring sessions at your place in the evenings, and she's incredibly envious. She keeps saying she wants to audit them too, to really improve herself!
Huo Yuhao nodded upon hearing this, but couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly.
He was indeed somewhat incredulous about Xu Xiaoyan's secondary profession level.
The mecha design sub-profession offers the fastest progression in the early stages of the game.
With enough mental strength and a certain level of comprehension, reaching the third level in a few years is not difficult.
Xu Xiaoyan is now over thirteen years old, but she is still hovering on the threshold of becoming a first-level designer.
As a control-type Soul Master, her mental strength is definitely not bad, so the problem can only be in two aspects.
Either their comprehension is truly worrisome, or they are simply lazy and haven't put in the effort in this area.
It couldn't be that her previous teacher never emphasized the importance of a side job to her, could it?
Just as Huo Yuhao was pondering to himself, Wu Siduo yawned softly.
Unlike Dai Yun'er, who is an energetic night owl, she is an extremely self-disciplined big cat who has always maintained the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.
In addition, she was forced to absorb so much advanced knowledge tonight, and she felt her head was throbbing, as if all the complicated knowledge was about to overflow.
Although her eyelids were already drooping, she forced herself to stay awake and added in a slightly tired voice, "Actually, there's another very important reason. In our entire first year, there are only eight registered blacksmiths. Apart from that one named Yang Nianxia who has reached level three, the rest are basically at level two."
"To reach the level two blacksmith at this age is indeed quite impressive in terms of talent alone. But in reality, blacksmiths at this level can't even complete a thousand-fold forging, let alone the thousand-fold forging metal needed to forge our battle armor."
Yuan En Ye Hui, who had been quietly and carefully putting away his new battle armor design blueprints, heard the discussion and, speaking from experience, added, "Your freshmen have eight blacksmiths, which is quite a lot. But in reality, even if you reach the level of a third-level blacksmith, you still can't complete the forging required for our battle armor, which needs to reach the level of a thousand-fold forging and first grade."
"Unless one of your classmates becomes a level four or even level five forging master."
Otherwise, students like us in the second year who have some ambition would directly go to the Forging Masters Association to post specific tasks to obtain the required thousand-forged metal.
"Although this kind of customized service is much more expensive than buying finished products directly on the market, the quality is guaranteed and it is enough to create a one-word battle armor."
Therefore, in the initial team allocation, the position of blacksmith is actually the least important to consider.
Upon hearing this extremely realistic analysis, Dai Yun'er, whose little face was almost pressed against the table, subconsciously blinked her bright eyes.
She first glanced at Wu Siduo beside her, then turned to look at Yuan En Yehui, who had a calm expression. After a long while, she chuckled somewhat embarrassedly and said, "Actually, we didn't think that much about it at first. It's mainly because, Senior Yuan En, weren't you planning to get the Spirit Alloy directly from Ling Bing?"
So we thought, why not just go all the way and forge the battle armor directly from spirit alloy? That way, when we upgrade to two-word battle armor later, we won't have to start all over again, which is so much easier!
Wu Siduo nodded in agreement.
"That's what I was thinking too, so Lingbing, can we also buy spirit alloy from you at market price?"
As she spoke, her beautiful heterochromatic eyes sparkled, as if there were tiny stars swirling within them, making them appear exceptionally moist.
During this time together, Wu Siduo still hasn't fully mastered Dai Yun'er's effortless "backstabbing" and coquettish skills.
However, she has become quite adept at these kinds of intimate gestures that she would never normally do.
The reason was simple: she discovered that Lingbing seemed to be very susceptible to Dai Yun'er's charm.
As long as Dai Yun'er didn't make any fundamental mistakes.
Whenever she pouted and clung to the other person's arm, pleading softly, Lingbing's face would always reveal a helpless indulgence.
Huo Yuhao, who was tidying up the drawings and lesson plans on the table, suddenly felt his eyelids twitch for no reason.
Compared to Dai Yun'er, a girl who is naturally charming and cute, and whose ability to act coquettishly is as instinctive as eating and drinking, Wu Siduo's impact at this moment is undoubtedly much greater.
She was unusually aloof, and usually carried a somewhat distant and arrogant nature.
At this moment, however, it voluntarily retracted its sharp claws, tentatively revealing its soft belly, and cautiously looked at you with its unique eyes.
This stark contrast caused Huo Yuhao's blood and qi to swell slightly.
It even made him have an absurd idea.
After Wu Siduo's martial soul possesses her, I want to gently stroke her cat ears and rub her lively cat tail.
Clearing his throat to shake off the inappropriate thought, Huo Yuhao, under the expectant gazes of the girls, said helplessly, "So, in your eyes, I've become your exclusive supply channel?"
He looked at them with a mixture of amusement and seriousness: "However, it's still too early to talk about spirit alloys. You should calm down first, design your own battle armor blueprints that you are most satisfied with, and then consider these things."
Unlike Yuan En Ye Hui, who already possessed complete design blueprints.
The blueprints contain a wealth of data about her own martial spirit characteristics and combat habits.
Huo Yuhao could naturally use these to redesign a set of blueprints based on the Spirit Alloy.
However, Dai Yun'er and Wu Siduo had only just formed a team, and their collaboration in designing a battle armor that was both suitable for individuals and allowed for mutual cooperation was itself an excellent training opportunity.
Huo Yuhao did not intend to take on all the responsibilities and personally solve all the problems they encountered on their path to growth.
Just then, a crisp doorbell rang out.
The four people in the laboratory were visibly taken aback.
Dai Yun'er and Wu Siduo exchanged curious glances.
It was completely unexpected that a visitor would come looking for Huo Yuhao even though it was already past midnight.
Huo Yuhao also walked out of the laboratory with doubts, crossed the living room, and pushed open the door of the villa.
Outside the door, shrouded in the soft night, stood a tall, spirited young woman with a touch of heroism in her eyes.
Upon seeing her, Huo Yuhao felt even more puzzled.
"Ye Xinglan, is there something important that you've come so late?"
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's question, Ye Xinglan involuntarily frowned and subconsciously replied, "When you patted my shoulder back then, wasn't that a hint for me to secretly come and find you at midnight?"
When Huo Yuhao displayed his unfathomable sword intent in front of him, he deliberately used his mental power to conceal the fluctuations of his soul power, which was enough to show that the other party was a master who liked to keep a low profile.
So, a subtle pat on the shoulder, coupled with a meaningful glance.
Isn't this implying that you should come to receive secret instruction in the dead of night?
This kind of scene of a master passing on their skills is all too common in the biographies of ancient swordsmen.
Huo Yuhao's lips twitched involuntarily, and he felt his brain freeze for a moment.
He couldn't understand how Ye Xinglan could connect a reassuring pat on the shoulder to the idea of a "secret midnight meeting to impart secret skills."
What kind of causal relationship exists between these two?
Is it possible that all those who focus on Kendo have such a surprising way of thinking?
Just like Ji Juechen, every time he sees someone with some skill, his eyes light up and he wants to drag them into a sparring match.
As if remembering something, Huo Yuhao suppressed his sense of absurdity and asked again, "Then how did you know I lived here?"
Although there aren't many houses in this residential area, there are still over a hundred of them.
Even when Yuan Enhui first came here, she had to ask Nanali for her exact address.
Ye Xinglan, who had just realized she might have misunderstood, immediately followed up on the topic upon hearing the question, replying in a serious tone: "Teacher Lingbing, your public information within the academy is recorded in detail on the academy's official website, and it's easy to find."
She paused, then, in her usual cool voice, stated a bizarre fact that made Huo Yuhao's eyelids twitch: "Even now, just a single ID photo of you is almost more popular on the academy's internal forum than Wu Changkong was many years ago, and you've been unanimously elected by many female students as the academy's new male god."
Huo Yuhao felt as if three black lines appeared on his face.
What is meant by "the new male god of the college"?
Are all these students in the academy so idle that they have nothing better to do?
It seems that there is not enough homework assigned during class!
Before Huo Yuhao could speak again, a graceful figure, accompanied by a fragrant breeze, suddenly darted out from behind him.
Dai Yun'er, who was originally a little tired, instantly became energetic after hearing the keyword "male god".
Like a nimble kitten, she clung to Huo Yuhao's back, peeking out from beside his shoulder, and grinned at Ye Xinglan outside the door, saying, "The 'male god' thing... indeed, everyone's eyes are sharp! But speaking of which, what are you, this female killing goddess, doing here at my Lingbing's place in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
In the chaotic battle for class committee selection, he single-handedly swept the field, eliminating nearly a third of the students.
Ye Xinglan now has a well-known nickname among the first-year students: "Female Killer Goddess".
