An inn somewhere in Shrek City

"Mu En really is an old fox!" Moyan stood by the window, holding a disposable communication Soul Tool as she reported what had just happened at Shrek Academy to her main body.

"It can't be helped. Shrek Academy looks incredibly powerful on the surface, but in truth, its talents are running dry." Tian Mucheng's voice came from the communication Soul Tool. "By the way, how is A Yan?"

Moyan glanced back at Dugu Luo, who was bandaging his mother's wounds, and replied, "Sister Yan was still forcing herself too much by fighting that trash Xuanzi. Her arm is fractured, so she'll likely need some time to recover. You'd better send another Dragon Slave over from your side, just in case."

"Alright."

Tian Mucheng did not reject Moyan's suggestion. Although Xuanzi was at the very bottom among the useless 98th-rankers, he was still a genuine Rank 98 Super Douluo.

He really did need to send Moyan another Titled Douluo-level Dragon Slave, but not yet. He would wait until Xiao Xue captured the soul beasts first.

Moyan was somewhat surprised that her main body had agreed so readily. "You actually didn't refuse?"

"Does that surprise you?"

"It does. Quite a bit." Moyan answered honestly. Since when had this guy become so generous?

Tian Mucheng fiddled with the pill in his hand and only explained after a moment, "In case Tang Gou really has no shame and sends down a divine oracle."

"True." Moyan immediately understood what Tian Mucheng meant. Then she thought of something. "Sister Yan took some of that guy Xuanzi's fortune, but it looks rather strange. I'll send it over for you to take a look."

Tian Mucheng quickly received the fortune delivery from Moyan. The instant he saw that pitch-black clump of fortune, his mind nearly crashed.

Good grief!

What the hell!

No wonder Xuanzi could be called an academy student killer. His fortune had already gone so black it was unusable.

In short: bad luck!

If he absorbed that clump of fortune, he might end up getting his own clones and Dragon Slaves killed someday.

Tian Mucheng immediately tossed the black fortune back. "You should keep this for yourself. If someone pisses you off someday, just stick it on them. Or give it back to Xuanzi."

"Looks like even you despise that guy's fortune~" Moyan teased as she took back the fortune and sealed it away.

Hearing that, Tian Mucheng said irritably, "This fortune could indeed improve my body, but forget about the price."

"Heh~" Moyan gave a soft laugh and began speaking of her and A Luo's current situation. "Those people have probably begun holding a Sea God Pavilion meeting. Aside from selling empty promises, Yan Shaozhe does have a brain. Once he saw Sister Yan's soul rings and cultivation, he connected her to the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well."

Tian Mucheng instantly understood that Moyan was plotting something again. "What are you planning now with that crazy-woman streak of yours?"

"Give me some immortal herbs when the time comes. I'm planning to go fishing."

"Fishing?"

Tian Mucheng was puzzled. "What kind of fish are you fishing for?"

"You'll find out when the time comes." Moyan spoke mysteriously, convinced that it would be fun!

After thinking for several seconds, Tian Mucheng chose to agree. "Contact me directly when you need them. I'll have someone deliver them."

Fortune could be transferred through a mental link, but physical items could not.

"OK." Moyan nodded, then continued their earlier topic. "In my year, there's Duke White Tiger's eldest son, Ling Luochen, and those people who will be killed by Xuanzi in the future. Oh, right."

Moyan suddenly recalled someone. "There's also Ma Xiaotao. Are you interested? As a transmigrator, you must be interested in the body of someone like her, main body?"

"Your crazy-woman nature has really been set free since you came to Shrek." Tian Mucheng said helplessly. Moyan had started worrying about this sort of thing for him. Jin Tianming was like this, and now she was too.

"Your personality is already like this. I'm only magnifying that pleasure-seeking side of you." Moyan toyed with the communication Soul Tool in her hand. She did not believe her main body was uninterested. "If you want, I can try to lure her over. Then you can turn her into a Dragon Slave—oh, no, she should be a Phoenix Slave!"

"Now isn't the time."

"Heh~ You really were tempted."

"You've already arranged it for me, the main body. If I still refuse, I'd be rather ungrateful." Tian Mucheng said indifferently. In any case, he maintained an attitude of neither taking the initiative nor refusing.

"Fine." Moyan stared at the giant tree within Shrek Academy beyond the window. "That tree has quite a lot of fortune. Too bad there are two dogs living inside it."

With that, Moyan crushed the communication Soul Tool in her hand. A ball of fire appeared and, in an instant, burned its fragments to ash. She then opened the window and blew the ashes from her hand outside.

When Tian Mucheng saw that Moyan had cut off the communication, his expression remained calm as he tossed the scrap metal into the trash. His gaze settled on the King of Flowers before the experiment table, which had already taken on his shape.

If Huo Yuhao still chose Tang Wutong in the future, choosing to be Tang Gou's little dog, Tian Mucheng would not mind giving them a little shock of love.

Shrek Academy, Sea God Pavilion.

Sea God Pavilion was located at the heart of Sea God Island. It was the most important place in all of Shrek Academy, and Shrek Academy's Hall of Worship was situated here.

Sea God Pavilion had been established after the Sun Moon Continent collided with the continent and the Body Sect emerged. It was later ranked alongside Mingde Hall and the Body Sect as one of the continent's three great powers.

As for the Holy Spirit Cult, those rats unfit to show their faces—were they worthy of being compared to Sea God Pavilion?

Ye Xishui: Heh~ Your family's pillar of stability is nearly being trained from a dragon into a dog by me.

At this moment, the people seated on either side of the conference table in Sea God Pavilion were arguing fiercely. The two main figures in the quarrel were Xian Lin'er, dean of Shrek Academy's Soul Tool Department, and Yan Shaozhe, dean of the Martial Soul Department, who had nearly been put to sleep for good by Dugu Yan.

The other elders were all watching the show, while only the vice deans of the two departments spoke up for their respective deans.

Yan Shaozhe questioned the woman across from him. "Lin'er, what do you mean by this?"

"What do I mean?" Xian Lin'er sneered. "Your own greed got the better of you, you got punched and fell unconscious for a while, and now you're blaming someone else. You really are useless."

"Xian Lin'er, you're going too far!" Cai Mei'er, Yan Shaozhe's wife beside him, immediately became displeased upon hearing that. He was her husband; it was not someone else's place to lecture him!

Especially not Xian Lin'er.

When Xian Lin'er saw Cai Mei'er enter the fray, her smile became even brighter. "This vixen is starting to help her phoenix man now?"

She had already been irritated by spending the day studying an eighth-grade Soul Tool from the Sun Moon Empire. She had wanted to rest for a while, but before she could, she had been dragged into a meeting. And this whole matter had been caused by Yan Shaozhe, that dead scumbag. Naturally, she used Yan Shaozhe as an outlet for her frustration. It would have been fine if Cai Mei'er had kept quiet, but the moment she cut in, Xian Lin'er became even more annoyed.

"Shaozhe, you were indeed in the wrong this time." Qian Duoduo joined the fray as well. Although he and Xian Lin'er were married in name, as a devoted simp, he naturally had to support his goddess.
