Old Mu: So It Was a Bloodline Influence. No Problem, the Advantage Is Mine!
Mu En silently stared at Moyan and Dugu Luo standing before him, his heart filled with helplessness. He truly had not expected these two girls to harbor such deep prejudice against an old man like him. This was undoubtedly a thorny problem.
If he did not correct these two young ladies, those plans simply could not be carried out.
"Little one, is there some misunderstanding between us?" Mu En focused his gaze on Moyan, his tone carrying a hint of probing.
He knew very well that Dugu Luo had always followed Moyan's lead. If he wanted to resolve the conflict, starting with Dugu Yan would be utterly useless.
"There's no misunderstanding." Moyan shook her head. Just as Old Mu thought the misunderstanding was about to be cleared up, she suddenly added, "I just don't like the look of you!"
Mu En: ...
The hell does she mean, she doesn't like the look of me? Wait, doesn't like the look of me? Mu En had more brains than Yan Shaozhe. He immediately caught the key point.
Mu En knew full well that, in the world of soul masters, martial souls could also exert bloodline suppression over one another.
This sort of bloodline suppression most commonly appeared among soul beasts. The bloodline of the strong could naturally intimidate the weak. When a martial soul carried a corresponding bloodline, it followed the same rules.
Among all bloodlines, the Dragon Clan's bloodline suppression was the most extreme. Higher-ranked dragon bloodlines could heavily suppress lower-ranked ones.
The Bright Holy Dragon bloodline flowed through Mu En's body. Such a powerful bloodline was rare even in the world of soul masters.
Yet now, he could clearly feel himself being suppressed by Moyan before him.
He remembered that Moyan's martial soul was a Dragon Martial Soul. Looking at it this way, it was likely the Bright Holy Dragon bloodline within him that had caused her attitude to be so terrible.
The bloodline on Moyan gave him an extremely terrifying feeling. Now, he had finally found the reason. For her to suppress the Bright Holy Dragon bloodline in his body, it could only mean that the girl's bloodline and martial soul were far more powerful than his own.
"Student Moyan, could this old man have a look at your martial soul?" Mu En asked curiously.
Moyan said, "Mu Deng, I'm really tired right now and can't be bothered. Could you wait until that freshmen selection thing to take a look?"
You tell me to show you my martial soul, and I'm supposed to show it? Who do you think you are, ordering me around?
This time, Mu En's expression was exceedingly calm. A trace of imperceptible calculation flashed through his eyes. He thought to himself that while Moyan's bloodline was powerful at her current age, she ultimately could not suppress the innate restlessness of a dragon bloodline.
But it was precisely at this age that one's mind was simple, making her easier to fool and control.
Sure enough, these two girls were fated to be with Shrek!
"Hahaha, this old man was indeed too hasty." Mu En stroked his beard and quickly came up with a plan. He laughed heartily. "Your dorm is Room 406. You mustn't go to the boys' dormitory!"
Dugu Luo did not say a single word to Mu En throughout the exchange. She led Moyan into the dormitory building.
Mu En, seated in his wheelchair, soon calmed down. He gazed kindly at Shrek Academy's gates and quietly awaited the arrival of the new students, eagerly anticipating the youthful energy they would bring.
Moyan's bloodline was unstable and restless, and the academy would naturally record this information. Once that happened, controlling Moyan would be as easy as turning over one's hand.
As long as he controlled Moyan, Dugu Luo would naturally be recruited into Shrek Academy. As for the families behind them, since the girls had willingly chosen to join Shrek Academy, surely their families would not disregard their dignity and try to take them back. It would be better to form an alliance with the academy and obtain some immortal herbs in return.
This was simply killing several birds with one stone!
Thinking of this, Mu En's mood immediately improved considerably.
If Moyan knew that Mu En had thought so much in such a short time, she would only have two words for him: Heh heh.

Dorm Room 406
The moment the two entered the room, their expressions became strange. Shrek Academy really did treat people differently. As promising talents in the academy's eyes, she and A Luo had been directly assigned such a nice dormitory, and they did not even need to clean it.
If Old Huo saw this, he would probably cry himself unconscious in the restroom.
Moyan tossed her luggage aside and lay directly on the clean bed. Somewhat tiredly, she said, "That old man really couldn't wait."
"There's nothing we can do about that, Lord Moyan." Dugu Luo organized their luggage. "We possess immortal herbs now. Though he looked very calm on the surface, he must be extremely eager inside."
Someone who could sit in the position of Sea God Pavilion Master definitely had deep schemes.
"Heh." Moyan revealed an amused smile. "A Luo, do you think the seed I planted will be useful?"
"I cannot be certain of that. Why not ask Lord Saint?"
Dugu Luo knew that she could not give Moyan a real answer, so she directly tossed the question to Lord Saint.
"Forget it." Moyan felt there was no need to ask her true body about such a trivial matter. "A Luo, I'm going to sleep. Wake me when it's time to eat."
Dugu Luo said, "Okay."
Moyan closed her eyes. Just as she was about to fall asleep, noise from next door abruptly shattered her drowsiness.
Moyan gently closed her eyes, her breathing gradually evening out as her consciousness slowly sank toward the edge of sleep. At that critical moment, a sudden burst of noise next door cut through the silence like a sharp dagger, instantly shattering the sleepiness she had painstakingly gathered. The clamor exploded beside her ears, jolting her relaxed body violently. Her brows furrowed tightly, and her face filled with irritation and anger at being disturbed.
"Which crazy freshmen are fighting on their first day?!"
Hearing that, Dugu Luo immediately stood and walked out. She also wanted to see which blind fools had disturbed Lord Moyan's beauty sleep.
The Dorm Next Door
The temperature in this dormitory was extremely strange. One half was freezing cold, while the other was scorching hot. Cold and hot air currents collided, producing faint howls, as though adding fuel to the tense standoff between the two girls. The two girls, only eleven or twelve years old, stood on opposite sides glaring at one another, sparks seemingly flying where their gazes met.
Invisible barriers seemed to rise around them, separating them from each other.
Three soul rings floated around each of them. The light radiating from the rings flickered violently due to their owners' anger, as though an intense duel could erupt at any moment, displaying just how terrible their relationship was.
"Just because you're a second-generation student of the academy, you think you're qualified to order me around?" Ling Luochen glared unhappily at the red-haired girl before her.
She had originally planned to cultivate for a while before going to eat. Who would have thought she would end up with such an unreasonable roommate?
The moment this roommate arrived, she had ordered Ling Luochen to be her lackey and take charge of the dorm's cleaning from now on. In Ling Luochen's eyes, there were only two words for that: mentally ill.
"If I think I'm qualified, then naturally I'm qualified." Ma Xiaotao looked at the furious blue-haired girl with complete disdain in her eyes. "If you think you're capable, then come outside and fight me. We'll see whose fists are harder, and that person gets to call the shots!"
Arrogant. She was simply too arrogant. Were all second-generation students at Shrek Academy such unreasonable people?
At this moment, Ling Luochen could not help but question whether listening to her family and coming to Shrek Academy to study had truly been the wrong decision.
