Ye Feng smiled. "Then... I won't go by age. Hurry up and call me Uncle Master."

"In your dreams."

Without a second thought, Ning Rongrong snapped back at Ye Feng.

"Then... would you rather call me Uncle Master, or call me Senior Brother?" Ye Feng asked with a smile, looking at her as though he had her completely figured out.

"I... I'll just call you Senior Brother," Ning Rongrong replied.

"Mm, good. Later tonight, Senior Brother will definitely give you a gift." Ye Feng smiled.

"A gift? What gift?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

"You'll find out once you enter Shrek Academy." Ye Feng smiled.

"Alright." Ning Rongrong agreed without hesitation.

Following Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong arrived at Shrek Academy.

The second assessment at Shrek Academy tested the students' Soul Power. Xiao Wu's Soul Power Level was thirty-three, while Ning Rongrong's had reached level twenty-six. As for Ye Feng, his Soul Power Level had reached forty-eight, allowing him to enter the fourth assessment without any conditions.

Along the way to the assessment, Dai Mubai brought Zhu Zhuqing to the testing grounds. Oscar also came out midway to sell sausages. Fortunately, Ye Feng knew the storyline well and did not buy Oscar's sausages.

When Xiao Wu asked Ye Feng why he was not buying sausages to eat, Ye Feng told her that Oscar's martial soul was sausage. Those so-called sausages were all produced by Oscar himself.

According to Shrek Academy's rules, anyone whose Soul Power exceeded level twenty-five could skip the tests and directly enter the fourth assessment. After Ye Feng, Oscar, Xiao Wu, Tang San, and Ning Rongrong displayed their Soul Power, they entered the fourth assessment as they had hoped.

Along the way, Dai Mubai introduced Ye Feng, Xiao Wu, and the others to Shrek Academy. In the end, he brought Xiao Wu, Ye Feng, and the others to a small square that was only two hundred square meters in size. A middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties sat in a chair, dozing off.

"Teacher Zhao, I've brought the participants for the fourth assessment," Dai Mubai said respectfully.

"Hm? There are actually students capable of taking the fourth assessment this year, and five of them showed up all at once." The middle-aged man rubbed his bleary eyes and looked at Ye Feng, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and the others in surprise.

"All five of them were exempted from the second and third tests," Dai Mubai explained.

Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up, and he rose from his chair. Though he was not tall and his appearance was quite ordinary, his body looked extremely solid. Although he was even a little shorter than twelve-year-old Ye Feng, he gave off a burly, powerful impression. His sturdy muscles all displayed his strength.

"All five have Soul Power above level twenty-five. Not bad, not bad. Looks like there are quite a few little monsters this year. My name is Zhao Wuji. Since you skipped the second and third tests, I'll personally have some fun with you. I'll give you one incense stick's time to get to know one another and discuss your plans. After one incense stick, you must work together to withstand my attacks for one incense stick's time. As long as one person lasts until the end, you will all pass. However, my final test won't be so easy to clear." Zhao Wuji smiled.

"Teacher Zhao, isn't that inappropriate?" Dai Mubai reminded him.

"What's inappropriate about it? The Dean isn't at the academy, so I'm the one in charge. If I say it's fine, then it's fine." Teacher Zhao was resolute.

"Teacher Zhao..."

"Enough. Dai Mubai, tell them about my Soul Power and combat characteristics. I'll give them one incense stick's time. I hope you understand that you shouldn't try to be clever. No one can escape my attack range through speed. Let me also remind you that none of you can defeat me alone. Coordinating and working together is your only way to defeat me."

Zhao Wuji cut Dai Mubai off and kindly reminded Ye Feng and the others.

Dai Mubai walked over to Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Ye Feng, and the others, then explained helplessly, "Originally, you only needed to defeat me in the fourth assessment. I never expected Teacher Zhao to personally step in. You'd better be careful now."

"Is this Teacher Zhao, like the teacher at the entrance, also a Soul Emperor-level powerhouse?" Xiao Wu asked.

"Not quite," Oscar answered.

"In that case, there's nothing to fear. Our average Soul Power is above level thirty, after all." Xiao Wu answered calmly.

"No, you don't understand, Xiao Wu. Teacher Zhao isn't a Soul Emperor. He's a seven-ring Soul Saint, known as the Immovable Bright King." Dai Mubai explained.

"What? A Soul Saint?"

Xiao Wu and the others blurted out in shock.

"That's right. Teacher Zhao's Soul Power Level is seventy-six. He has a beast martial soul, the Vajra Bear, with almost no weaknesses. Speed is his only shortcoming. In the world of Soul Masters, he is known as the Immovable Bright King." Dai Mubai explained in detail.

"What? He's the Immovable Bright King?" Ning Rongrong cried out.

"What, do you know the Immovable Bright King?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.

"The Immovable Bright King is infamous in the world of Soul Masters. He is called the Demon King of the Mortal World, as well as the Immovable Bright King. Spirit Hall once dispatched twenty Soul Emperors to surround and suppress him, yet he still escaped. Zhao Wuji excels at close combat, and speed is the only thing we can use to pass this assessment. His martial soul is the Vajra Bear, and a Soul Saint has virtually no weaknesses. Even Soul Masters of the same level would find it difficult to injure him," Ning Rongrong murmured to herself in astonishment.

"She's right."

Dai Mubai agreed. "Speed was originally his weakness, but the gap in your Soul Power is too great. That weakness is of no value to you at all. If you want to pass Teacher Zhao's assessment, you really need to carefully discuss your tactics."

Ning Rongrong nodded. Zhu Zhuqing nodded. Xiao Wu nodded. Tang San nodded.

For Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Tang San, facing a Soul Saint in his seventies for the first time was indeed a challenge.

It was not only Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Tang San who were anxious. Even Ye Feng was extremely worried.

Although Ye Feng had obtained the Chen Clan's ultimate arts from Sword Saint Chen Xin, his current Soul Power Level was only that of a Soul Ancestor in his forties. Even he could not possibly defeat Zhao Wuji alone. Was he supposed to get beaten up by Zhao Wuji, then let Tang San show off and turn the battle around?

Ding!

Just as Ye Feng was thinking this, the system's voice sounded as expected.

"The system has detected that the Host is about to be violently beaten by Zhao Wuji. The system refuses to accept this and rewards the Host with a Soul Douluo Experience Card."

PS: Relatives came over at noon, and I drank half a kilo of 52-proof Luzhou Laojiao with them. My head is a little dizzy, so there will only be one update today. Sorry, everyone!
