The dean tells Huo Yuhao that he will no longer be treated as a core disciple because of his late arrival at the academy. He says that he has been studying with him for the last eight months and that this is the first time he has seen him as a disciple of such a high level. The dean says that the soul tool team has assigned a mission to assess the student's abilities in the ranks. Huo is 12 years old and has studied under the dean's guidance for the past eight months. He is a level two soul engineer. The professor says that Huo's rank-up performance will be important in determining whether or not he will be promoted to a higher rank in the future. He also says that daihuabin wants to shame Huo with the rank up assessment. He adds that the dueling arena is a great opportunity for Huo to prove his abilities. He tells the students to enter the arena and apologize if they feel that they are not up to par with the other team.
