The stern-faced Zhou Yi stood up, almost like a student being called on.
"No, no! Teacher Zhou, please sit!" Huo Yuhao panicked. "I'm only a specially appointed assistant, everyone should just treat me casually!"
"It's fine. A true teacher is anyone with knowledge worth learning." Zhou Yi replied calmly. "Everyone here is already an excellent instructor. You don't need to feel pressured. Just demonstrate what you know, we'll summarize and prepare our own lesson plans afterward."
Yan Shaozhe nodded in agreement.
"Little junior brother, just speak freely. Don't worry about making mistakes."
That only made Huo Yuhao more nervous!
Thankfully, his ability to handle pressure was strong. He quickly calmed himself down.
First soul skill — Spiritual Detection Sharing!
He used spiritual power to scan and dissect his own muscle groups, then began demonstrating each movement he knew.
Every detail, down to the tiniest muscle fiber, was transmitted completely.
Such an efficient teaching method made the teachers' expressions shift one after another.
Especially Zhou Yi — her eyes shone as she stared at Huo Yuhao!
Damn it! If only she had acted earlier, she would've had her husband take him as a disciple!
Now…
The best she could do was push Fan Yu to apply and make Huo Yuhao one of the executors of that plan.
---
Because this was teaching rather than training, each movement only needed three repetitions.
By the end of one round, Huo Yuhao was drenched in sweat, but still within his limits.
[Destiny of Shrek Academy, Zhou Yi, Wang Yan… rewritten, +2500 Fortune Points!]
Even Huo Yuhao was stunned.
Even Zhuge Lan, watching from the side, hadn't expected it.
Something exchanged for only 1 Fortune Point had this much value?
Or maybe…
In ten thousand years of development, had Shrek really gotten so complacent?
How had they never thought through such a basic matter?
---
"This really is a very comprehensive form of training." Yan Shaozhe sighed.
"Shrek Academy has always prided itself as number one on the continent, but our focus has always been on martial souls and soul tools. For these fundamental basics, we invested far too little effort."
"A case of missing what's right under our noses."
"Now that little junior brother has filled the gap, Shrek's future will definitely grow brighter."
He took the lead in clapping.
With the Dean clapping, could anyone else hold back?
Even Zhou Yi joined in, applauding vigorously.
Huo Yuhao scratched his head awkwardly, unable to refuse and just laughing sheepishly.
---
"Alright then." Yan Shaozhe said at last. "Little junior brother, do you have a name in mind for this course?"
Huo Yuhao was about to say he'd leave it to senior brother's decision—
"Call it Physical Education," Zhuge Lan spoke up. "A massive academy without even a PE class… utterly inhumane."
Huo Yuhao, not catching the sarcasm, repeated it word for word.
"Alright, Physical Education it is." Yan Shaozhe announced. "You have three days to prepare, then it will be rolled out fully across the Academy. It will even count toward this year's promotion assessment."
Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief.
After saying farewell, he quickly slipped away through the teacher's passage.
Yan Shaozhe smiled faintly but didn't stop him.
---
Yet right outside his dorm, Huo Yuhao found himself cornered.
Meeting Tang Ya's resentful gaze, he smacked his forehead.
"Crap!"
"I forgot about the grilled fish I promised you, Sister Xiao Ya!"
"Sorry, really! Too many things have been happening lately, I completely lost track."
"It's already kind of late. How about tomor—"
"No! Tonight!" Tang Ya insisted stubbornly. "Come on! I keep the fish and ingredients ready every day!"
"Yuhao, just help her out." Bei Bei said helplessly. "If she doesn't get her grilled fish, Teacher Xiao Ya won't sleep again."
Tang Ya shot him a glare sharp enough to kill.
Bei Bei quickly zipped his lips with an invisible zipper. Not another word.
"Uh… alright then." Huo Yuhao relented. "I'll go call Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao—"
"No need! We'll handle that!" Tang Ya said excitedly. "You just focus on grilling! Come, come, come!"
She pushed Huo Yuhao along, while Bei Bei went to call the others.
---
They arrived at an open space where a bonfire was already burning. Three large barrels of live fish, dozens of spices, and several racks for grilling were all neatly prepared.
The corner of Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched.
Was this grilling fish… or grilling him to death?
Tang Ya gave an embarrassed smile.
"I tried cooking the past two days, but Bei Bei kept ruining it, so… I prepared a bit more than necessary."
Yeah right — more like preparing for disaster.
Huo Yuhao rolled up his sleeves. Spiritual power surged as he deftly killed the fish, marinated them, set up the racks, grilled, flipped, and evenly sprinkled spices.
Before long, the smell of grilled fish filled the air.
Tang Ya inhaled deeply, intoxicated.
"Yes!"
"That's the flavor!"
"Finally, I get to taste it again!"
"Wuuu—"
Tears of joy slipped from the corners of her mouth as she crouched nearby like a greedy little cat, staring hungrily.
Bei Bei returned with the others. Seeing the scene, he couldn't help laughing. Their Teacher Xiao Ya was adorable like this.
---
Huo Yuhao looked over at the newcomers: Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, Xu Sanshi, Ma Xiaotao… and one tall girl.
She looked only around fourteen or fifteen, with a slender, well-proportioned figure, long golden waves cascading down her shoulders, and an elegant yet slightly seductive aura. A true beauty.
Xu Sanshi immediately took a big step forward, deliberately blocking her from Huo Yuhao's view.
With exaggerated enthusiasm, he shouted:
"Wow! This grilled fish smells amazing!"
Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze and smiled.
"Brother Sanshi, eat as much as you like. There's plenty tonight."
"Then I'll hold you to that." Xu Sanshi grinned.
But Ma Xiaotao wasn't having it. She grabbed him by the scruff and tossed him aside.
"Useless freeloader. Go set up the tables!"
Faced with the tyrant of the inner court, Xu Sanshi dared not resist, obediently getting to work.
Bei Bei and the others pitched in, quickly organizing a dining space.
The first batch of grilled fish was soon ready. With a flick of spiritual power, Huo Yuhao portioned them neatly onto iron plates, handing them out one by one.
Oil still sizzled, chili peppers glistened, the charred skin crisped perfectly, and the cracks revealed tender white garlic-flavored flesh.
Everyone's appetite surged, unable to wait another second.
"Mmm—"
"Wow!"
"So good! Class monitor, more!"
The charcoal-grilled skin was unbelievably crisp, melting into sticky richness with just a few chews — a perfect contrast of crunchy outside and tender inside.
The seasoning was flawless, balanced to the grain. Every bite brought immense satisfaction.
All conversation ceased. Everyone devoured fish like starved cats.
Even the smallest, Xiao Xiao, ate six big ones.
But the champion wasn't the powerful Ma Xiaotao — it was gluttonous Tang Ya, who downed thirteen whole fish!
She even wanted more, but Bei Bei forcibly stopped her for her own good.
Only then could Huo Yuhao finally rest, grabbing two grilled fish for himself — he hadn't eaten all night.
Seeing him dig in, the others, now round-bellied and guilty, looked embarrassed.
"By the way…" Xu Sanshi seeking death as he said: "... "
