Chapter 242 Jin Li: Are you concerned about me?
Everyone looked in the direction Jin Li was pointing, their eyes scanning the crowd like searchlights.
The dozen or so people there were clearly just background figures, automatically ignored by everyone.
In the end, everyone's eyes fell on the man.
Huo Yuhao, a legend of the academy, the strongest student in the history of Shrek Academy.
His reputation had already spread throughout the entire Shrek Academy; everyone knew him.
Clearly, everyone immediately realized that the "he" Jin Li was referring to was Huo Yuhao.
However, Jin Li, a newcomer, easily pointed out Huo Yuhao in the crowd. Could it be that the two knew each other before?
Or is this simply a mutual attraction between geniuses?
Wang Dong, standing next to Huo Yuhao, looked at Huo Yuhao, a hint of wariness flashing in his large, pinkish-blue eyes.
Her lips pursed slightly; she felt there was definitely something wrong between the two of them.
Zhang Lexuan glanced at Huo Yuhao, then looked at Jin Li and said, "He is a sixth-year student in the outer academy."
Given Huo Yuhao's talent and strength, he should have been admitted to the Inner Academy, but he wasn't.
Zhang Lexuan didn't know the reason; she only knew that it was Huo Yuhao's own suggestion, and he seemed unwilling to enter the inner courtyard.
Upon hearing Zhang Lexuan's words, Jin Li tossed her golden-red hair and said, "Then I want to go to the sixth grade of the outer academy too."
For such a genius, Zhang Lexuan would naturally try her best to meet any request, especially since these were not harsh conditions.
She immediately said, "Okay, from now on you'll be a sixth-year student in the Foreign Languages Department. Come with me to complete the formalities."
"Um!"
Jin Li nodded and followed Zhang Lexuan into the academy.
As she passed by Huo Yuhao, Jin Li made a point of glancing at him.
She winked at Huo Yuhao, a sly glint in her golden eyes.
Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao, who had a serious expression, and asked, "You two know each other?"
Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment before saying, "We've met once."
A hint of suspicion flashed in Wang Dong's eyes. She felt that the relationship between the two was definitely not as simple as having met once.
……
The next day, Shrek Academy's sixth-grade class one gained a new student, Jin Li.
Her upright posture and refined demeanor immediately attracted everyone's attention when she appeared at the classroom door.
After the teacher finished her introduction, she walked confidently to the empty seat next to Huo Yuhao and sat down.
Her gaze swept over the curious, envious, and jealous eyes around her, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
By the time they reach the sixth grade, the students are at least at the Soul Master level, and they have already learned most of the material.
Therefore, sixth graders only have one class every morning, where the teacher stands on the podium, answering the students' questions about their cultivation process.
Huo Yuhao frowned and transmitted his voice, "Why have you transformed into human form? And why have you come to Shrek Academy?"
His tone was full of doubt; he didn't understand why she would do that.
Hasn't her fate already changed?
Shouldn't she stay in the Star Dou Great Forest and quietly be her auspicious beast?
Jin Li didn't answer, but instead happily transmitted her voice, "I knew you would recognize me."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's forehead creased with exasperation, and he was speechless.
He really wanted to retort, "You haven't even changed your name, if I still can't tell, wouldn't I be an idiot?"
But he held back, and then transmitted his voice seriously: "You are a transformed soul beast. There are many powerful people in the academy. What if you are discovered? Do you want to become someone else's soul ring?"
According to Huo Yuhao's knowledge, before a transformed soul beast grows to the level of a Title Douluo, it is very likely that the Title Douluo can see through its true form.
Once Jin Li's identity is exposed, she will face a hunt and death.
Despite Huo Yuhao's emphasis on danger, Jin Li seemed completely unconcerned.
A faint smile remained on her face as she asked, "Are you concerned about me?"
Huo Yuhao was speechless again upon hearing this. Was this the time to discuss such things?
He always felt that the brain circuits of mythical beasts were different from those of humans.
But before Huo Yuhao could speak again, Jin Li's voice came over.
The voice was clear and cheerful: "Don't worry, even a Limit Douluo can't see through my soul beast identity."
She paused, then continued, "Haven't you noticed that 'Douluo: Huo Yuhao's Dual Transmigration into the Peerless Dragon King' is causing a reading frenzy? You haven't read it yet? What's the difference between me and other transformed soul beasts?"
Reminded by Jin Li, Huo Yuhao did indeed notice the anomaly.
Normally, a soul beast only has one chance to transform into human form when its cultivation reaches 100,000 years. .
After transforming, it appears in the form of a six-year-old human, and then it needs to cultivate and grow little by little.
However, Jin Li's transformation did not conform to this rule at all.
Jin Li, after transforming, is now a human who looks like thirteen or fourteen years old, and even has the cultivation of a Soul Emperor.
All of this was indeed very different from the information Huo Yuhao knew.
Seeing the confusion on Huo Yuhao's face, Jin Li didn't keep him in suspense.
Her voice was full of pride: "I am an imperial auspicious beast, carrying the fortune of the entire Star Dou Great Forest, so naturally I am extraordinary."
"Therefore, humans would never be able to tell that I am a soul beast in human form."
Huo Yuhao's gaze was fixed on the teacher on the podium who was explaining combat techniques, but his mind was elsewhere, pondering Jin Li's words.
He didn't know if it was true or false, but he couldn't find any flaws, so he thought it was a reasonable explanation.
Moreover, he felt that Jin Li wouldn't risk her life.
She dared to transform into human form, dared to enter the human world, and dared to come to Shrek Academy; she must have her reasons.
Since there were no safety issues, Huo Yuhao returned to the initial question.
He transmitted his voice, "You're protected by ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, so why did you choose to transform into human form and enter the human world?"
This time, Jin Li did not refuse to answer.
She transmitted her voice, "I'm just curious, I want to see what the human world is like."
She paused, a hint of anticipation flashing in her golden eyes: "Besides, there are so many delicious foods in the human world, I want to try them too."
As she spoke, a hint of resentment flashed in Jin Li's eyes: "After eating all the delicious food you gave me before, I can't even eat the brains of the Light Soul Beast now."
Huo Yuhao opened his mouth, he really hadn't expected it to be for this reason.
A mythical beast transformed and entered the human world, all for the sake of food?!
The reason is so simple it leaves one speechless, so naive it makes one both laugh and cry.
But when you think about it this way, the real culprit is yourself!
If he hadn't fed her human food, she wouldn't have developed an interest in gourmet food, nor would she have become curious about the human world.
Huo Yuhao now truly regrets it. He should have listened to Di Tian and not fed those things to the auspicious beast!
He thought it was just a meal, but he never expected that this meal would change the fate of a mythical beast, leading her back onto this dangerous "path of destiny".
But it's too late to say anything now. Huo Yuhao sighed, his bright eyes filled with helplessness.
He gathered his scattered thoughts and asked again, "Did Di Tian agree to let you come out?"
He knew how important the Imperial Beast was to the Star Dou Great Forest; normally, Di Tian shouldn't have released her.
Jin Li snorted upon hearing this, her voice full of smugness: "Di Tian dotes on me the most, but it took me a lot of effort to persuade him."
"It's only because Shrek Academy isn't far from Star Dou that he probably wouldn't have agreed."
"However, Di Tian is also very worried about my safety. He might be watching me right now."
Huo Yuhao's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.
He involuntarily raised his head, spreading his powerful mental energy, which instantly enveloped the entire Shrek Academy.
His mental energy swept through the campus, but he didn't find anything unusual. However, he wasn't sure if Di Tian was really watching him from somewhere.
After all, Di Tian was far more powerful than him.
Not only his mental strength, but also his mastery and application of spatial abilities were beyond his reach.
Di Tian wanted to hide, but he couldn't find him at all.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's wary expression, Jin Li chuckled and said, "So, even if someone does see through my soul beast identity, there's no need to worry. At Shrek Academy, I can summon Di Tian anytime!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao turned his head and glanced at Jin Li.
He then realized that the other party had not made the decision on a whim, but had made the choice only after confirming that it was safe.
Huo Yuhao let out a breath, dispelling the worry in his heart.
This put him at ease a little.
