Douluo Huo Yuhao: My Clone is Too Self-Disciplined

Chapter 84: The Assessment is in Progress (Please Subscribe)
While everyone was quiet, a middle-aged man carrying a booklet came up and shouted to the crowd, "Numbers eighty to eighty-three, follow me."

Upon hearing the shout, the second-best in the world gripped his number 83 plaque tightly and strode forward. Kong Xuan and the other two teenagers participating in the assessment followed suit.

Apart from Kong Xuan, the other two boys participating in the assessment were quite nervous and clearly lacked confidence, so he also turned his attention to Kong Xuan.

This confident young nobleman should be able to bring him some surprises, but little did the second-best in the world know that this young man was preparing to practice a level four soul tool.

After being led to their respective examination rooms, the four individuals found their own forging platforms based on their examination numbers.

Kong Xuan stood with his hands in his pockets, seemingly oblivious to the concept of an opponent. The second-best in the world, meanwhile, crossed his arms, exuding arrogance. The other two, however, kept their heads down, appearing extremely reserved.

The four of them looked up at the examiner on the distant platform, but when the second person in the world looked up, he spotted a very familiar figure. He recognized the examiner in charge of his assessment as none other than the powerful figure who had led the ambush on the Lone Dragon Mercenary Group yesterday.

In other words, they really were students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. It was quite bizarre that he had guessed correctly just by saying it casually.

When the Second Under Heaven looked at Yoga Lin, Yoga Lin also turned his gaze to the Second Under Heaven. He was surprised by the arrival of the Second Under Heaven, and at the same time, he was full of anticipation.

He was very curious about what kind of brilliant performance this young man, whom he valued highly, would deliver. With Mingzhu ahead of him, Kong Xuan's figure became less important. In any case, there was nothing to look forward to about a genius like Kong Xuan.

This immediately made Kong Xuan a little unhappy. From childhood to adulthood, he had always been the admired genius boy. Who wouldn't look at him differently?
But today, the examiner in charge of his assessment didn't look at him, but at a seemingly ordinary boy. How could he accept that?

He secretly vowed to create a powerful level-four soul tool that would amaze everyone.

When Yoga Lin spotted the figure of the second-best in the world, among the audience watching the match, a girl with long, wine-red hair, bright eyes, and a snow-white dress also stared wide-eyed.

She looked at the second-best in the world as if she had seen something unbelievable. "Brother, that boy is... he's the guy who knocked me out and ran away."

"What?" Meng Hongchen's words immediately caught Xiao Hongchen's attention.

He turned his gaze to the figure Meng Hongchen was pointing at, his eyes blazing with uncontrollable killing intent. After all, the second-best in the world was the one who caused their failure in the assessment, and also the one who dared to harm his sister.

Xiao Hongchen immediately flew into a rage, "Oh, so it's this kid! Sister, watch me go up and beat him up to vent your anger!"

Seeing that Xiao Hongchen was actually going to go up on stage, Meng Hongchen quickly grabbed his hand. "Brother, don't be impulsive. This is an assessment. Besides, he didn't do anything to me. On the contrary, he gave me a wonderful dream. I'm quite grateful to him."

After calming Xiao Hongchen down, Meng Hongchen continued, "..."
"I was just surprised to run into him here. Maybe he'll even become our classmate in the future!"

"Become classmates? That depends on his abilities. He's from Douluo Continent, but unfortunately, guys from Douluo Continent don't pass our academy's tests so easily!"

Xiao Hongchen looked disdainful. They were well aware of the level of soul tools in Douluo Continent; they had only learned a superficial understanding from them. Moreover, soul masters in Douluo Continent held their soul tools in utter contempt, and very few forces genuinely studied soul tools. Meng Hongchen naturally knew that what Xiao Hongchen said was true, but she still very much hoped that the Second Best in the World could be admitted. Although the Second Best in the World had confused her, she was very grateful for the dream the Second Best in the World had given her. It was the first time in over a decade that she had felt the warmth of her parents.

"I wish he could let me do it again!"

After finishing his thought, Meng Hongchen stared intently at the second-best in the world who was about to enter the assessment arena.

Just as the assessment was about to begin, a refined voice hurried over. He was wearing glasses, looked to be in his early twenties, and was dressed in the uniform of an instructor from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. After arriving, he stood below the assessment platform and quietly watched the figure on the competition stage.

His arrival also caught the attention of Kong Xuan on stage, whose face immediately lit up with excitement.

It's Xuan Ziwen.

Xuan Ziwen was raised by his grandfather. When he was six years old, he and Xuan Ziwen studied soul guidance knowledge together with his grandfather. Although he could not understand most of it, Xuan Ziwen would patiently teach him afterwards.

Xuan Ziwen is both an older brother and a teacher to him, so he must pass the test smoothly today and use his level-four soul tool to give Xuan Ziwen a perfect answer.

Today he is going to create the monitoring soul tool that Xuan Ziwen is most proud of.

In the assessment area, Lin Youjia cleared his throat and slowly began to speak, "Now I will explain the rules of the assessment. Within one hour, you may choose any material on the competition stage and successfully refine a functional soul tool. A level one soul tool is acceptable, a level two soul tool is excellent, and as for a level three soul tool, you should act according to your own abilities. If you choose to refine a soul tool that you cannot handle due to arrogance, and fail, no matter how talented you are, the academy will not admit you."

"This is also a test of your self-awareness. You only have 15 minutes to select the necessary materials. Once the time is up, the assessment will start automatically. This 15 minutes will be counted within the assessment time."

After saying this, Lin Youjia only glanced at Kong Xuan briefly before falling silent.

His earlier statement about acting within one's capabilities was clearly directed at Kong Xuan, because in his view, while others might be able to refine first-level soul tools, Kong Xuan, being such a genius, might be able to do something more challenging.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, the four of them got to work. Kong Xuan also rushed to the area with rare materials and began selecting materials for carving a level-four soul tool.

The second-best person in the world didn't look directly at the materials Kong Xuan was looking for. His mental strength was extremely powerful, and with his sixth sense, he could easily see what materials Kong Xuan was looking for.

He used the same method to find the same materials as Kong Xuan, selecting the exact same materials.

Although he knew very well that Kong Xuan had chosen rare materials for refining a level four soul guide core.
