Ye Guyi's Whereabouts and Talent

Yan Shaozhe and the others had let a day's worth of work pile up. After leaving the Sea God Pavilion, they quickly bid Zhou Sichen farewell.

Zhou Sichen glanced at the sky. It was already the morning of the next day, and his stomach was beginning to protest.

After giving it some thought, Zhou Sichen headed straight to Dugu Xianmeng's Villa to find her, intending to go to the Cafeteria with her.

Dugu Xianmeng had been about to leave when she saw Zhou Sichen, and she was somewhat surprised as well. He had been taken away by Elder Xuan and the others for so long—it seemed Zhou Sichen was just like Big Sister had been back then.

But Zhou Sichen was far more terrifying than Big Sister. Although Ye Guyi's Sacred Angel also restrained her poison, it was nowhere near as frightening as Zhou Sichen's Extreme Ice.

Moreover, Ye Guyi had not alarmed so many of the academy's upper echelons back then. Zhou Sichen truly was a genius.

Seeing that Zhou Sichen had come to find her first after returning, Dugu Xianmeng felt delighted. Before Big Sister returned, she became even more determined to win over this bratty little brother.

Handsome, wealthy, and blessed with powerful strength and talent—he was practically the ideal other half she had dreamed of...

Under Zhou Sichen's startled gaze, Dugu Xianmeng intimately looped her arm through his.

Feeling his arm sink into the ample softness of the beautiful Xianmeng, Zhou Sichen smiled faintly.

Dugu Xianmeng seemed to be doing it deliberately. With a giggle, she said, "Don't be shy. Big Sister and I are best friends, so it's only right that I take care of you."

Zhou Sichen did not refuse. Setting aside her looks and figure, her talent and strength alone were enough to move him.

Keeping her by his side would mean that, in the near future, once Dugu Xianmeng had grown stronger, she would surely become a major source of support for him.

Zhou Sichen replied with a smile, "Then thank you, Elder Sister Xianmeng."

Dugu Xianmeng held onto Zhou Sichen's arm. "You're welcome."

The two of them walked closely together along the paths of Sea God Island, and the Inner Court Disciples they passed could not help whispering among themselves.

Aside from the relationship between Dugu Xianmeng and Zhou Sichen, the most important matter was the scene yesterday when Zhou Sichen had been taken away by Elder Xuan and the others.

Was this the first time in the academy's history that so many big shots had personally received someone?

Furthermore, quite a few students had witnessed Zhou Sichen's terrifying soul rings yesterday, as well as the frightening strength that had left Ma Xiaotao at a disadvantage. Zhou Sichen had instantly become a prominent figure in the Inner Court.

No matter where he went, people discussed him. Wherever he was, Zhou Sichen seemed to become the center of attention.

The academy's upper echelons did not restrict this either. They felt that such an environment would better test a person's heart.

From Zhou Sichen's subsequent actions, they would also be able to determine whether this child was suited to inherit Elder Mu's position.

Indeed, though Zhou Sichen had been enrolled for less than three days, his status had unknowingly been elevated to this level.

Inheriting Elder Mu's position was something only top academy officials like Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe were qualified to be considered for, yet now it had fallen upon a Twelve Years Old child...

Zhou Sichen showed no unusual reaction to this, because he had grown up in such an environment.

However, his family had kept things well concealed. Very few people knew of his talent, and all of them were core members of the family.

After all, a genius who had yet to mature could not be considered a true genius.

No one knew how many youthful prodigies on this continent had died before reaching their full potential. Zhou Sichen had no desire to follow in their footsteps.

Upon arriving at the Cafeteria, Zhou Sichen followed Dugu Xianmeng to the Third Floor and enjoyed a lavish meal.

Dugu Xianmeng kept chatting with Zhou Sichen, jumping from one topic to another like a little chatterbox with an endless supply of things to say.

Fortunately, Zhou Sichen was quite interested in all the topics Dugu Xianmeng brought up, such as what exactly Elder Sister had gone off to do.

Ye Guyi had left the academy a month ago. The reason she had left was that she needed to complete a Temporary Assessment Mission.

It was said that Elder Mu had personally assigned this mission to Elder Sister, which spoke volumes of its importance.

However, with Elder Sister's current strength, ordinary missions should not pose much difficulty for her.

Ye Guyi was three years older than Zhou Sichen. This year, she was Fifteen Years Old, and her Soul Power Level had already reached Level 53. That had been her level two months ago, when she wrote to Zhou Sichen.

The reason Ye Guyi had attained such a terrifying level was not only because Zhou Sichen had mapped out her cultivation path and because of her extraordinary natural talent, but more importantly, because of Shrek Academy's Golden Tree.

The Golden Tree was practically the perfect simulated cultivation environment for Ye Guyi. Cultivating in the Secret Chamber beneath the Golden Tree, Ye Guyi's cultivation speed had increased by nearly geometric multiples.

Even merely being on Sea God Island, with the Power of Light radiating from the Golden Tree, was enough to greatly increase Ye Guyi's cultivation speed.

All these factors combined had allowed Ye Guyi to achieve her current terrifying accomplishments.

Eighteen Years Old Ma Xiaotao was currently Level 63, only ten soul power levels higher than Ye Guyi.

At Ye Guyi's rate of improvement, there was a strong possibility that she would surpass Ma Xiaotao in the future.

This was also why Ye Guyi had caused such a sensation upon entering the Inner Court and why Elder Mu had accepted her as his final disciple.

Of course, ten thousand years ago, Ancestor Tang San had become the Sea God after defeating the Angel God. Some might have thought that Ye Guyi would be rejected for entering Shrek Academy.

In fact, that was not the case. First of all, those events had happened ten thousand years ago. Even if Ye Guyi truly was a descendant of Qian Renxue, the Angel God of that era, so much time had passed that people had likely forgotten almost all of it.

Moreover, it had been Zhou Sichen who suggested that Ye Guyi come to Shrek Academy. Ye Guyi had originally not intended to come to Shrek Academy, as she felt rather uncomfortable about it herself.

But after Zhou Sichen analyzed the pros and cons for her, Ye Guyi let go of the last trace of discomfort in her heart.

After arriving at Shrek Academy, she had shone brilliantly. Elder Mu had also secretly examined Ye Guyi several times. Only after confirming the child's character did he accept her as his final disciple after she entered the Inner Court.

The reason Mu En had accepted a disciple was not merely Ye Guyi's talent, but chiefly the absolute restraint Sacred Angel possessed over Evil Soul Masters.

Before Zhou Sichen appeared, Ye Guyi had been the person most likely to reach Mu En's current accomplishments. With a Level 99 Peerless Douluo's Sacred Light Dragon guiding her, Ye Guyi's future achievements would certainly not be low.

Moreover, with Mu En protecting her, Evil Soul Masters had no way to snuff out this angel in the cradle. It also served as a form of protection for Ye Guyi.

Overall, entering Shrek Academy was a good choice. It allowed Zhou Sichen to obtain a great deal of resources to the fullest extent, while also gaining the protection of powerful experts.

After Zhou Sichen and Dugu Xianmeng had eaten their fill, they went to collect Zhou Sichen's school uniform and gather everything else he needed for the Inner Court.

By the time they finished all that, it was already afternoon. After changing into his uniform, Zhou Sichen headed to the Soul Arena with Dugu Xianmeng.

Zhou Sichen had made a bet with Dugu Xianmeng—within a year, he would let her taste the Red Rank delicacies from the Cafeteria.
