What drew the most attention was the girl's skin, exceptionally delicate and fair.

"Hello, may I ask if I passed the test?"

The girl's voice was very gentle and pleasant.

A flicker passed through Ye Xian's eyes, and his slightly furrowed brow relaxed.

If I'm not mistaken, this girl should be Ning Rongrong.

Among the few people left, and judging by her distinctive aura...

That was not something an ordinary passerby could possess.

"Do your family know that you've come to Shrek Academy?"

The Teacher in charge of the entrance examination asked after a brief hesitation.

"What does that seem to have to do with my entrance examination?"

Ning Rongrong frowned, then retorted,

"As long as I meet the requirements, the academy has no reason to reject me, right?"

The Teacher considered it for a moment, then nodded.

"Mubai, take her inside."

The admissions Teacher called out lightly toward the back, and a figure quickly ran out.

"Got it, Teacher!"

Dai Mubai readily agreed, then turned his gaze toward Ning Rongrong.

After giving her a quick once-over, he prepared to lead her into Shrek Academy.

Just then, his gaze inadvertently swept past Ning Rongrong's back.

Dai Mubai froze on the spot.

Because the person standing behind Ning Rongrong was Tang San!

The latter was equally dumbfounded at the moment.

Very quickly, Tang San's bewilderment turned to embarrassment.

He had never imagined that he would run into him here again!

Although he had bragged to Xiao Wu that Dai Mubai had been scared away by him...

He had not mentioned a single word about how the other man had been scared away.

Compared to Tang San, Dai Mubai looked even more awkward.

That pervert who had licked his toes was also here to take Shrek Academy's entrance examination.

He did not look very old, and with twenty-second-level Soul Power, he had a chance of joining Shrek Academy.

What if they ended up sharing a dorm room again?

At that thought, Dai Mubai's body shuddered involuntarily.

It was fucking terrifying.

Tang San also lowered his head slightly, his eyes shifting away as he no longer dared meet Dai Mubai's gaze.

Tang San was already beginning to sweat.

If word got out that he had licked someone's toes...

Wouldn't he be finished?

But this was hardly anything glorious for Dai Mubai either.

Surely he would not dare speak of it carelessly.

Meanwhile, Ye Xian, standing behind Tang San, was already laughing himself silly inside.

Tang San probably felt as though ten thousand alpacas were stampeding through his heart.

He lightly pressed his lips together, barely managing to keep his expression from showing anything unusual.

Wanting to laugh but being unable to was truly torturous.

"Mubai, what's going on?"

The elderly man in charge of admissions also noticed that something was off and immediately asked.

"Nothing, nothing."

He forced out a laugh.

Then he turned toward the puzzled Ning Rongrong.

"Come on, I'll take you inside."

With that, Ning Rongrong and Dai Mubai entered Shrek Academy.

At last, it was Tang San's turn.

"Next!"

"The registration fee is ten Gold Soul Coins. Just put them in that box over there."

At that moment, the elderly man behind the desk called out lazily.

Hearing him, Tang San hurried forward and painfully took ten Gold Soul Coins from his bundle.

After carefully counting them twice, he reluctantly placed them into the wooden box beside him.

As a mere Soul Grandmaster, he could only receive ten Gold Soul Coins a month from Spirit Hall.

He had no other source of income beyond that.

But on second thought, once he entered Shrek Academy to study, what were ten Gold Soul Coins worth?

"Hold out one hand."

The elderly man said it blandly.

Tang San came back to his senses and hurriedly extended his hand before him.

Then his palm was lightly squeezed twice.

This was the method used to test one's skeletal age.

"Your age is fine. Release your Soul Rings and martial soul."

The elderly man's expression remained calm.

Tang San nodded, then began circulating the Soul Power within his body.

"Hiss—!"

Since his severe injuries had not fully healed, the movement of Soul Power caused him a sharp pang of pain.

Even his expression changed slightly.

Immediately after, an ordinary Blue Silver Grass sprouted from Tang San's right palm.

The elderly man frowned, then discovered in surprise that two small green flowers had grown at the tip of the Blue Silver Grass.

Even its leaves looked somewhat strange.

At the same time, one white and one yellow Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet and spiraled upward.

Enhanced by the effects of the Soul Rings...

"Hmm?"

"Your martial soul is Blue Silver Grass?"

The elderly man frowned slightly, staring at Tang San's martial soul in thought.

As everyone knew, Blue Silver Grass was one of the most typical useless martial souls.

Yet this Blue Silver Grass had bloomed.

Tang San shook his head lightly, revealing a faintly confident smile.

"Teacher, my martial soul is Blue Silver Flower."

"My Godfather said it's a mutated martial soul. Besides, doesn't Shrek Academy recruit monsters?"

"Doesn't that make me a monster?"

The elderly man's brow remained furrowed.

"Twenty-second-level Soul Power is barely acceptable."

"Your Blue Silver Flower martial soul is indeed rather novel. Mubai, take him inside first!"

Dai Mubai had just finished escorting Ning Rongrong into the academy and happened to return. His heart instantly sank.

That perverted brat had really passed the first round.

This was fucking troublesome.

But the final round would not be so easy to pass.

Because he, Dai Mubai, was the final line of defense.

Naturally, he would give Tang San plenty of special attention.

He absolutely could not let such a hidden danger join Shrek Academy.

"Let's go!"

Dai Mubai said simply, then shot Tang San an unfriendly look.

Tang San's body stiffened instantly.

He took a deep breath, then forced himself to remain calm as he stepped forward.

Following Dai Mubai into Shrek Academy.

After Tang San left, it was Xiao Wu and Ye Xian's turn.

Like everyone before them, they first paid ten Gold Soul Coins.

Then came the hand test to check their skeletal age.

Once everything checked out, the elderly man had Xiao Wu release her Soul Rings and martial soul.

"Buzz—!"

She circulated her Soul Power, and the Soft Bone Rabbit possessed her body.

Two hundred-year Soul Rings rose with it.

At twelve years old, her Soul Power had reached level twenty-nine.

That talent was unquestionably exceptional.

The elderly man nodded casually.

Signaling that Xiao Wu had passed as well.

Finally, it was Ye Xian's turn.

After passing the skeletal age test, he circulated his Soul Power and released his Soul Rings.

"Buzz—!"

A powerful aura surged forth.

One yellow, two purple, and one black Soul Ring instantly appeared beneath his feet, then spiraled upward.

At the same time, the Darkin World Bow appeared in his right hand.

"Sou-Soul Ancestor!"

The elderly man's previously lazy eyes flew wide open.

He stared at the four Soul Rings on Ye Xian's body with utter disbelief.

His expression could practically be described as wide-eyed fury.

A Soul Ancestor with a black Fourth Soul Ring?

What the hell, he was twelve?
