Creating a Clone

As Chu Ye led the students to Shrek Square, he said,

"I dealt with that old woman Zhou Yi for you because I couldn't stand her teaching methods."

"This was also to show you how to get stronger at Shrek Academy, and how to fight for your rights."

The students nodded.

Chu Ye continued:

"But why am I still making you run twenty laps?"

"Because it's a ritual to carry on the spirit of Shrek."

Hearing this, the students grew curious.

Running was a ritual too?

Wang Dong also looked skeptical.

Chu Ye said seriously:

"If you want to grow stronger, you need conviction."

"The reason I, your senior, am so strong is that I inherited the conviction of the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils."

"Those who don't dare stir up trouble are mediocre."

"That's how I temper myself."

"And running was how the Grandmaster first... how Yu Xiaogang improved the Shrek Seven Monsters' basic physical fitness back then."

"Although this method is relatively outdated in our era, it's also a ritual through which we inherit the spirit of the Shrek Seven Monsters."

"So twenty laps will be enough. You should meditate and gain insight as you run, rather than blindly running yourselves ragged."

"Let yourselves become fully integrated into Shrek Academy as you run."

"From now on, you should stir up plenty of trouble, just like me, your senior."

"Do you hear me?"

The students' eyes burned with fervor when they heard this.

So that was how Senior Chu Ye had become so strong?

He had finally passed on the Flame Mantra!

They also realized what was going on.

The running was clearly meant to kindle everyone's conviction to grow stronger.

That old woman Zhou Yi really had taken a chicken feather for an imperial decree. It was just a running ritual, yet she insisted on training everyone to death!

Xiao Xiao listened and looked at Chu Ye with admiration.

Huo Yuhao, on the other hand, had black lines all over his face.

He muttered inwardly, Senior, you're fooling us, aren't you?

If he hadn't known that Chu Ye had placed a statue of himself above the Sea God's, he might really have thought Chu Ye revered the first generation of the Shrek Seven Monsters!

As he saw it, Senior Chu Ye did have respect for the first generation of the Shrek Seven Monsters, but only a tiny bit.

Wang Dong curled her lip. Like hell I'd believe him.

Although Chu Ye knew it would be difficult to fool everyone, he still maintained an actor's professionalism as he said,

"All right, the clock starts now. Get running."

As he watched everyone start running around Sea God Lake,

Chu Ye sent a voice transmission to everyone.

"I'll teach you a slogan. Shout it together when the time comes."

The students blushed when they heard the cringeworthy slogan.

But when they thought about growing as strong as Chu Ye, they nodded.

Meanwhile, Yan Shaozhe, dean of the Martial Soul Department, returned to the scene with Zhou Yi, his face dark.

Yan Shaozhe felt utterly helpless.

Of all things Mu En could have done, why did he have to make this brat a teaching assistant?

Look what had happened now.

He had stirred up trouble again.

He felt that sooner or later, this Bright Phoenix would be so angry he'd turn into a Dark Phoenix.

Seeing Yan Shaozhe's expression, Zhou Yi's face grew smug again.

That damned Chu Ye will definitely be punished today!

Seeing Yan Shaozhe bring Zhou Yi over,

Chu Ye asked with a smile, though he already knew the answer:

"What is it, Dean Yan? You're already here to check on the lesson?"

Yan Shaozhe said sternly, "Chu Ye, you've only just become a teaching assistant, and you're already stirring up trouble. What exactly are you trying to do?"

Chu Ye looked innocent. "Dean Yan, I'm stirring up trouble? Can't you see the students are all running diligently?"

"Every one of them has grasped the spirit of Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang. Look at their faces. Their eyes are bright and full of spirit."

Yan Shaozhe was taken aback.

Indeed, as he looked around, every student in Freshman Class One had a flame above their head, and their eyes were as resolute as if they were about to join the Inspection Corps.

As they ran past Yan Shaozhe,

they shouted in unison:

"Carry on the Shrek Seven Monsters' dying wishes and make Shrek great again!"

????

What did they mean, dying wishes?

The Shrek Seven Monsters had become gods, not died.

Yan Shaozhe was dumbfounded.

He had thought he'd have to come and set Chu Ye, that troublemaker, straight again, but he hadn't expected this.

He turned to Zhou Yi:

"Teacher Zhou Yi, tell me what's going on here."

The way he looked at Zhou Yi had changed, too.

She had called them troublemakers, but every one of them was running properly.

Didn't that mean she was the one who lacked the ability to manage them?

Zhou Yi was stunned as well.

She had also told them to run, but none of the students would listen.

Now, under Chu Ye's direction, these freshmen were all running instead.

Didn't that show she couldn't command these children at all?

Zhou Yi said furiously, "What method did you use to bewitch them?"

Chu Ye said with a smile, "Teacher Zhou Yi, it's simply that I'm more capable than you."

With Chu Ye rubbing it in her face like that, Zhou Yi finally snapped. She turned on her heel and left on the spot.

Seeing this, Yan Shaozhe was startled. He hadn't expected the brat Chu Ye to have such an ability.

He simply left him with a parting remark.

"Then teach them well. Whatever you do, don't disappoint Mu En again."

Then Yan Shaozhe left as well.

After all, falsely accusing someone was a serious loss of face.

After the run, Chu Ye had everyone introduce themselves, then said with a smile:

"Good. Class dismissed for today."

Everyone: ????

Class was over right after the introductions?

What kind of move was that?

After class, Huo Yuhao followed Chu Ye.

Chu Ye asked, "Junior Brother Yuhao, is something the matter?"

Huo Yuhao said, "Senior Chu Ye, do you know anything about the Zodiac Temple?"

Chu Ye teased, "What? Are you thinking of joining the Zodiac Temple?"

Huo Yuhao was speechless. "No, that's not what I meant."

Chu Ye said with a serious expression:

"The Zodiac Temple is very powerful. Even Taotie Douluo couldn't defeat You Rooster and Mao Rabbit."

"But martial strength isn't the most frightening thing about it."

Huo Yuhao asked curiously:

"Senior Brother, then what is the most frightening thing?"

Chu Ye said mysteriously:

"Suppose someone had a way to bring the dead back to life. What effect do you think that would have on the world?"

Huo Yuhao was stunned. He immediately thought of the Sea God who had manifested that day.

"Senior Chu Ye, are you saying...?"

Chu Ye said, "Hey, don't go putting words in my mouth. I didn't say anything."

Hearing Chu Ye talk like that, Huo Yuhao had more to think about.

Electrolux also spoke:

"In my opinion, what your senior Chu Ye said must be about that Sea God statue coming back to life."

"If even a statue can come back to life and possess a god's divine power, then reviving a person doesn't seem impossible either."

Huo Yuhao asked in surprise, "Elder Yi, can you do it?"

Electrolux said, "If the person is willing to become an undead being, I can give it a try."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao felt a little dejected. However much he missed his mother, he didn't want her to become undead after being revived. That would be a desecration of her.

After entering the academy,

he had only two goals: to take revenge and to repay a kindness.

Now he had to find a way to revive his mother.

At that thought, a flame ignited in his heart.

He was about to ask Chu Ye more, but by then Chu Ye had already disappeared.

Meanwhile, Chu Ye was delighted.

"To think I gained so much this time."

After all, he had changed the fate of nine students who would have been expelled from the academy.

At the same time, he had also caused the paths of Wang Dong, Huo Yuhao, Xiao Xiao, and the others to deviate.

He believed these children would bring the academy surprises.

He then went to a safe house in Shrek City.

After entering, he immediately began using Fate Points to create a clone.
