With Yi Shuihan's strength, let alone a Soul King, he could even fake a Soul Saint. Impersonating a Soul King would be too easy for him; he simply had the black pot release the aura of a 4th-tier Soul Beast, and he passed the checkpoint smoothly.

After passing through the checkpoint, there were still many people here, probably more than 10,000. However, most of them looked dejected, as if they had lost their parents. Either their record beads were destroyed, or they did not have enough points to enter Caesar Academy.

These people were divided into two groups: the Soul General area and the Soul King area. There were nearly a hundred people in the Soul King area, and they all had an arrogant look on their faces, which was in stark contrast to the Soul General area.

Yi Shuihan thought for a moment but did not go to the place where the Soul Kings were or to the area of ​​the Soul Generals. Instead, he found a relatively quiet place, took out a chair, and sat there, looking every bit like a member of a third force.

Chapter 1111, A Thorn Beating

Yi Shuihan's unconventional behavior attracted the attention of many people, especially those who knew he had failed the test. They were filled with jealousy and resentment at Yi Shuihan's relaxed and carefree demeanor. If Yi Shuihan were in the Soul King's team, they wouldn't dare to show it, since they couldn't afford to offend him. However, Yi Shuihan was alone on the side, which gave them the illusion that he was someone they could bully.

For now, however, these people can only express their dissatisfaction with their eyes and mutter a few words. They are still far from taking action, after all, they still have some reservations about Yi Shuihan before they know his background.

As time passed, more and more people arrived. About an hour before the hunting grounds gates opened, the number of people had exceeded 3. People continued to arrive, but the number was noticeably less than before, indicating that most of the examinees had returned.

"At this rate, the mortality rate for this assessment is over 50%, around 60%. It's rather cruel for an entrance exam."

Yi Shuihan had anticipated this. The examiners had said from the beginning that people would die, so it was not just a simple warning. These people should have made the necessary preparations before they came to participate in the assessment.

Surviving the assessment, even if you are not ultimately accepted into Caesars Academy, is a transformation, and you will eventually reach a higher level than before.

Those who can enter Caesar Academy are naturally the chosen ones, but those who survive the test are also favored by various families outside and are considered top talents. If they want to join a Soul Master family, they are all highly sought after.

Leaving that aside for now, Yi Shuihan also encountered some familiar faces while waiting: Lu Xiu and his group of five. In the end, only four returned, as one of the female soul masters had disappeared, apparently having died in the hunting grounds. As a result, they all seemed very downcast and did not greet Yi Shuihan.

Since the other party didn't take the initiative, Yi Shuihan naturally wouldn't go over to talk to them, and continued to quietly watch the show.

"kindness?"

Suddenly a group of people approached him, led by a Soul King and followed by dozens of Soul Generals, clearly indicating that they were up to no good.

"is it him?"

The leader of the Soul King asked a female Soul Master in the group, who was none other than Huang Pu, who had met Yi Shuihan once before.

"Yes, that's him, there's no mistake."

Huang Pu nodded, but dared not look at Yi Shuihan.

“Brother, I heard you have an admission token. I wonder if you could part with it? I have a friend who is short of points and needs an admission token. If you are willing to give me your admission token, I will be your friend, and we can enter Caesar Academy together. I can be your guarantor and give you a chance to join the Genius Club.”

This Soul King's words revealed arrogance, and he didn't think much of Yi Shuihan, acting as if he was doing Yi Shuihan a favor.

However, the people following behind him all looked envious of Yi Shuihan, as if this opportunity to join the World Society was something extraordinary.

"roll."

The scene fell silent, and the Soul King's expression changed, becoming extremely gloomy.

"Say it again, I didn't hear you clearly."

"Get lost, get far away! Do you understand now? As a Soul King, how can you be so hard of hearing? How dare you go out in public?"

Yi Shuihan said bluntly that people with such an inflated sense of self-importance need to be thoroughly humiliated.

Damn it, some idiot comes here demanding an admission token and wants to make friends? Who does he think he is? Hongjun or Pangu?

Seeing the kid's arrogant face, Yi Shuihan felt a little annoyed and decided to have some fun with him.

"Lord Yuan, this..."

"Shut up."

The Soul King surnamed Yuan stared at Yi Shuihan for several seconds before smiling, but his gaze was incredibly cold.

"No one has ever dared to tell me to get lost before. You are the first. You should feel honored. As a reward, I will let you live. Live well. I will not let you die. No one can kill you."

"I will throw you into the Thousand Serpents Devouring Soul Formation, so you can experience the thrill of being devoured by thousands of serpents every moment."

As he spoke, his eyes turned into eerie snake pupils, and a giant, dark green snake slowly crawled out from his back.

This scene evoked either fear or apprehension in the eyes of others. As more of the giant snakes slowly appeared in their sight, the sense of oppression in their hearts grew stronger.

Just then, Yi Shuihan stood up from his chair, picked it up, and faced the Soul King surnamed Yuan...

"bang bang bang"

The sound of chairs being pounded echoed continuously, and tens of thousands of people watched as Yi Shuihan single-handedly beat up a Soul King in a way they could never have imagined.

Strangely, every time the giant snake behind the Soul King Yuan's head touched the chair, it would retract a section into his back and eventually disappear completely.

"How could this be? I can't move, I can't activate my soul power, and even the connection with my soul beast is severed. How could this be..."

The Soul King surnamed Yuan on the ground was devastated. He couldn't believe any of this. He was being brutally attacked with a chair by a kid he looked down on, right in front of so many people, and he was completely unable to fight back.

If it weren't for the excruciating pain in his head, he would have thought it was all an illusion. No, even if the pain were real, he would have preferred to believe it was an illusion.

They fought for a full five minutes, until the Soul King surnamed Yuan was reduced to a bloody mess, unrecognizable, before Yi Shuihan finally stopped.

The fact that Yi Shuihan was able to control himself and beat someone so badly without them dying is thanks to his incredibly precise control. Most people would need decades of training to do that.

"call"

Yi Shuihan put the chair back on the ground, sat down, and muttered to himself.

"I've really gotten rusty. I haven't practiced often. I used to be able to play for half an hour, but now I can only play for 5 minutes. I guess I need to practice more in the future."

Those who were nearby heard Yi Shuihan's mutterings and were completely dumbfounded. What kind of person would specifically practice this?

This guy is terrifying, absolutely not to be messed with.

Chapter 1112, One Man Intimidates Tens of Thousands

"This is the most bizarre battle I've ever seen. A Soul King was actually defeated by someone using a chair, without putting up a single resistance. The other person didn't even use a Soul Beast. This has nothing to do with Soul Beasts; it's entirely because he himself couldn't beat the opponent!"

"I'm really impressed by this guy. He's so domineering. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't have been so clean and efficient."

"But that's too reckless. He's all alone and weak. That Soul King is clearly someone with a powerful background. Offending him means offending a whole bunch of people, and they won't let it go."

"Look, someone's come looking for trouble. I wonder what's going to happen next."

After defeating the Soul King surnamed Yuan, it was like stirring up a hornet's nest. A large group of Soul Kings came over and attacked, and they were the very Soul Kings who had been blocking the way.

Clearly, the Soul King who was beaten by Yi Shuihan was one of them, and now things have escalated.

Facing dozens of Soul Kings, almost no one was optimistic about Yi Shuihan. The reason for this was that Lu Xiu and the others had witnessed Yi Shuihan easily kill six Soul Kings in the Ascended state, and knew that Yi Shuihan's strength was not at the level of Soul Kings at all. Even their family's Soul Emperor Elder would not be that powerful.

"He actually managed to defeat Yuan Wu, so he has some skill. It's a pity he offended our Genius Society, so he can only die here."

"Yuan Wu is also a piece of trash. He was defeated before he could even summon a soul beast. He is a disgrace to our Genius Association."

"I, the Mantis Blade, will end your life!"

A Soul King with a slicked-back hairstyle let out a shout, his hands enveloped in soul power, and rapidly changed shape.

"It really is a mantis blade. Does it use a soul beast similar to a mantis?"

The nickname "Mantis Knife" was truly fitting, because at this moment his hands had indeed completely transformed into the limbs of a mantis, and were gleaming with a metallic sheen.

If a disagreement leads to a fight, Yi Shuihan would naturally not sit idly by and wait to die. However, he did not panic. He calmly stood up and then picked up a chair.

"Bang!"

The incredibly sharp mantis blade failed to slice through the chair; instead, it was smashed and sent flying by the chair.

"No way! What material is that chair made of? It's so hard, and his strength is incredible! He didn't even use the power of a soul beast, which means it's entirely due to his innate talent and superhuman strength!"

Everyone stared at Yi Shuihan in astonishment, suddenly feeling that Yi Shuihan's body had become incredibly tall, as if he had a chair in his hand and felt like he owned the world.

"Attack together! We absolutely cannot let him live today."

Someone shouted, and immediately more than ten Soul Kings used the power of their Soul Beast Possession to rush towards Yi Shuihan.

However, three minutes later, a large group of Soul Kings lay on the ground, and Yi Shuihan stood in the center holding a chair, exuding an aura of dominance.

"Come on! Let's go again! Who else? I'm ready to play!"

One man single-handedly defeated the entire Genius Association; this battle is destined to be remembered by these examinees.

"Just who is he?"

"I've never heard of such a person before!"

"Perhaps another Soul Saint is about to be born in this world."

"I understand now. That chair is actually his soul beast, otherwise it wouldn't be so sturdy. I want to find a soul beast like that in the future so I can become as powerful as him."

The Soul General camp was shaken, and the Soul King camp was also shaken. At this moment, only Yi Shuihan shone brightly, while everyone else paled in comparison.

"I knew this kid would be tough to deal with."

On a large tree in the distance, two figures, one in black and one in white, were watching Yi Shuihan. They were Leng Mo and Lu Fan, who had witnessed Yi Shuihan beating the lackey at the beginning.

"I'll avoid him from now on!"

"Why? This isn't like me being cold to you!"

"I can't beat him."

"Um, what you said makes a lot of sense."

Yi Shuihan did not kill anyone, so none of the members of the genius society died, only suffered serious injuries, and even had difficulty moving.

It wasn't that Yi Shuihan was soft-hearted, but rather that he felt it was unnecessary to bother with these ants. In any case, these people had no right to cause him trouble. Besides, if he really killed them all, it would be impossible to keep it a secret in public. Killing so many people would be bad if he were convicted of intentional killing.

"Everyone, go retrieve your recording beads! They can no longer stop us."

It's unclear who shouted that, but suddenly more than 3 out of 2 people rushed out. Some were heading towards the Soul Kings on the ground, while others were heading towards the Soul Generals who were inspecting the area. In short, the scene was extremely chaotic.

A chaotic battle unfolded before Yi Shuihan. Strangely, the area within dozens of meters of Yi Shuihan became a blank zone, and no one dared to approach. Only at the very beginning did those people come in to loot the Soul Kings for a short while, which lasted less than a minute in total.

Yi Shuihan alone had already intimidated tens of thousands of examinees.

The gates of the hunting grounds opened on time, and the staff of Caesar Academy were immediately struck by the chaotic battlefield. Their faces were filled with astonishment, as if they could not believe what they were seeing.

"Stop fucking doing that, all of you."

A sound dozens of times louder than a lion's roar rang out, instantly silencing the entire battlefield. Most of the examinees clutched their heads, looking extremely aggravated, while a few also showed signs of discomfort.

"It's him!"

Yi Shuihan saw the person who made the sound. It was the examiner who had announced the rules. At this moment, he was standing on the Thorn Dragon, his face full of anger, and his soul power was surging. Obviously, his roar just now was not simple, otherwise it would not have had such an effect.

"The assessment is over. I don't care what happened before. Come out and hand over the record beads to verify your points. Anyone who makes a move now will not only be disqualified, but I will also cripple them. Don't doubt whether I can do it."

As soon as the examiner finished speaking, many of the examinees knelt down on the ground and began to cry.

"I was so close, so close to getting an admission token! I was so close!"

"My record bead is gone, everything is gone, my record bead."

"Great! I have the admission token. I've been selected."

"Father, did you see that? I'm finally going to be able to enter Caesar Academy and become a member of Caesar Academy. When I graduate, I will definitely..."

The myriad aspects of life, joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, are all on full display at this moment. The examiners at Caesar's Academy are used to this and do not react much, silently doing their job.

"That is...?"

Upon noticing Yi Shuihan and the dozens of Soul Kings lying around him, the examiner immediately showed a puzzled expression and became interested in Yi Shuihan, who was different from most of the other examinees.

"An interesting kid."

Chapter 1113, The Dust Settles Down

The examiner noticed Yi Shuihan, and Yi Shuihan also noticed the examiner's gaze, but he didn't care and maintained his indifferent expression. So what if he was a Soul Emperor? He was just a nobody to him, even if the other party belonged to Caesar Academy.

The staff at the main gate were waiting for the examinees to come out to check their records and then tally their scores to determine who would be admitted. However, after waiting for most of the day, no one came out, which made things awkward.

The examiner noticed this too, his brow furrowing, completely baffled. Nothing like this had ever happened before; why were all these problems arising now that he was in charge of the admissions process? First the chaos, and now this…

"Get out here right now, do you not want to go to the academy? I'm giving you one minute. If no one comes out by then, you're all disqualified."

Saying that all of them failed was obviously just to scare people; even if he were the examiner, he couldn't bear such a big responsibility, but it did have some effect.

All the examiners turned their attention to Yi Shuihan, and people began to make way for him from the direction of the exit.

"Interesting. It seems something extraordinary has happened. I wonder what he did to earn such awe from others."

The examiners saw through the examinees' feelings toward Yi Shuihan and became even more curious about him.

"Sigh, I wanted to keep a low profile, but it seems that's not going to be possible now."

With a sigh, Yi Shuihan, unfazed, walked step by step toward the main entrance under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

"It feels like a minute has passed!"

As Yi Shuihan handed the recording bead to the inspector, he muttered to himself. Although the words were spoken in a low voice, none of the people present were ordinary people, especially the examiners, whose senses were extremely sharp. One of them twitched his lips and had the urge to hit Yi Shuihan, but he managed to hold back and pretended not to hear.
