Return to Eastsea City, Moo!

Looking at Snow Empress holding his documents, he was puzzled and didn't know what the other party meant by bringing this up, but he still nodded.

"It's me... What brings you here, Senior Snow Empress?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see the genius personally selected by the Beast God. I know how high his standards are."

The Snow Empress put down the documents in her hand and removed her bamboo hat, revealing a stunningly beautiful face. She had long, snow-white hair, icy blue eyes, and an aura of a high-mountain flower in the dead of winter. Her skin was as white as snow, and she was incomparably beautiful.

Snow Empress looked at him calmly. Chen Jianshu felt as if the other party was looking through him at someone else. He quickly withdrew his longing thoughts and turned to look at Xu Xiaoyan.

"Disciple, with your evolved Martial Soul and the absolutely valid astrological attribute mutated from the star attribute, you are already qualified to become Red-Level Core Disciple of the Spirit Pagoda."

"Red-Level Core Disciple?! Can I...?"

She was somewhat flattered when Snow Empress suddenly steered the conversation toward her and offered to improve her treatment.

"Of course, with my guarantee and your potential, you're more than capable of becoming Red-Level Core Disciple. I'll apply for it for you afterward."

"Okay, thank you, Master!"

Xu Xiaoyan was still very moved to hear that she could also become Red-Level Core Disciple. As expected of her master, he gave her so many great gifts right from the start.

Before the status, treatment, and power mentioned earlier could be realized, the teacher had already gifted him many rare and precious materials for ice-attribute cultivation.

"Work harder in the future, and don't let your teacher down."

"Yes!"

After exchanging greetings, the two left Snow Empress's office. Chen Jianshu was quite puzzled. Was he called over just to pat his head, and was there really a reason for them to meet?

"A Shu! I've actually been accepted as a disciple by the legendary Snow Empress! Aren't I amazing?"

Stepping out of the Spirit Pagoda, Xu Xiaoyan was overjoyed. Now she had a powerful figure protecting her, and she was even a core disciple of the Spirit Pagoda at the Red-Level Core Disciple.

In the past ten thousand years, the number of Red-Level Core Disciple has never exceeded ten. I never thought I would become one of them. I am so lucky.

"Yes, congratulations."

Chen Jianshu nodded somewhat absentmindedly, pondering the attitudes of the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress towards him; the two seemed to know him quite well.

Ice Empress was even very generous, letting him tour the Ice Empress production workshop and smell the ice cream right away.

The image of the turquoise and white striped workshop seemed to linger, but what bothered him most was the strange attitude of the two towards him. Snow Empress seemed to treat him as a familiar yet unfamiliar old friend, while Ice Empress didn't treat him like an outsider at all.

If I had leaned my cheek just a little closer back then, we probably could have had a Battle of Red Cliffs. More importantly, Ice Empress is hundreds of thousands of years old and it's legitimate.

"A Shu, is something on your mind?"

Noticing Chen Jianshu's perfunctory attitude, Xu Xiaoyan immediately moved closer and knew what was going on when she saw his absent-minded look.

"It's about the Shrek Academy, I'm just worried that those mad dogs might go berserk again or something."

He nodded slightly and changed the subject to the Shrek Academy. Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoyan's face immediately turned ugly.

"I originally thought the description in the Spirit Pagoda manual that Shrek Academy students were a bunch of unreasonable lunatics and madmen was an exaggeration, but it turns out it was an understatement. These guys are practically social terrorists! From now on, we should all stay away from the Shrek Academy."

After the Tianhai Grand Competition, Xu Xiaoyan's opinion of the Shrek Academy plummeted. However, when she thought about how Tang Yin seemed to be obsessed with entering Shrek Academy, she felt relieved.

So, birds of a feather flock together, huh? Well, never mind then. Tang Yin should leave Eastsea Academy as soon as possible and stay away from us!

The two walked hand in hand toward the Eastsea Academy's resettlement area. Soon they would be leaving Skysea City and returning to Eastsea City to attend classes as usual.

Back at the hotel, everyone was discussing the awards for the secondary professional competitions.

Chen Jianshu won first place in the Youth Division Forging competition, receiving a medal and a prize.

Tang Wulin won second place in the Youth Group Forging competition, receiving a silver medal and a prize. The first place went to his senior sister Mu Xi.

Next up is Wu Bingyu. Wu Bingyu has been learning about mecha manufacturing from Wu Changkong for a long time and is now a level four Mecha Manufacturer. She won first place in the Youth Group mecha manufacturing competition.

The highlight of this competition, the Soul Fighting, was interrupted by Shrek, but fortunately they still won various gold and silver medals, so it wasn't a complete failure.

After everyone had gathered, they returned directly to the Eastsea Academy. Because of the Tianhai Grand Competition, Eastsea Academy gave everyone a two-day holiday.

They've gone out three times in total. The first time was to attend a ceremony in Star Dou City, where they were almost killed by a falling telephone pole. The second time was to absorb Immortal Herbs, where they were almost killed by the aftershocks of God-Level battle. The third time was for the Tianhai Grand Competition.

Having just complained about the negative effects of going out against the heavens and inevitably encountering trouble, Chen Jianshu, Wang Dong, and Na'er were all exhausted when they returned home.

Wang Dong, in particular, was completely drained of her strength by that blow and would be very weak for the next few days, falling asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. Na'er, on the other hand, was just mentally exhausted from all that she had gone through.

"Xiao Yin! Xiao Yin, where are you!"

Back home, Chen Jianshu began searching for his Little Silver Dragon. He glanced at the untouched water and meat on the ground but didn't pay much attention to them.

Meanwhile, Gu Yue, who was in the manor, was looking at the news from Shrek with a gloomy expression.

"Silver Moon Douluo and Light & Light and Dark Douluo, is that it? How dare you steal my mother! You're both Path to Death!"

Gu Yue pondered how to take revenge on the Shrek Academy, but he had heard from Di Tian that the Golden Ancient Tree deep within the Shrek Academy seemed to be the Plane Core.

Not only that, but it even contains the Sea God Divine Sense, which is a bit troublesome.

However, the Little Silver Dragon holds a grudge. If she gets the chance... she'll make sure you all suffer! She'll make sure you all fly away!

Once Silver Moon Douluo and Light & Light and Dark Douluo leave Shrek Academy, she'll send a few Limit Douluos over to celebrate, and if she catches them, she'll crush them into mincemeat.

"Achoo! Strange, have I forgotten something?"

Just then, Gu Yue suddenly sneezed, feeling as if she had forgotten something, but she quickly remembered.

"Oh right! I think I also have a Xiao Yin identity! Mom must be getting impatient... That Na'er, really, she didn't even remind me!"

Gu Yue immediately teleported there, then transformed into Little Silver Dragon and ran into the room.

"Awooo!" (Mommy, I'm here!)

Just as she was about to joyfully throw herself into Chen Jianshu's arms, her expression suddenly froze.

Chen Jianshu was seen affectionately embracing Little Silver Dragon that looked exactly like him; both were very happy.

At that moment, Gu Yue froze, staring blankly at the scene of the human and the dragon together, the clear sound of the cow mooing echoing in her mind.
