Just then, two handsome young men came down from the dormitory building. When they saw Zhou Sichen, their faces lit up with delight. "Big Brother! You finally came! I thought you'd forgotten about us!"

Zhou Sichen turned around and greeted them. "A Xuan, A Yue."

When Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao saw the two who had come down, their expressions tightened. They had only been enrolled for a few days, and even the freshman registration period had not yet ended, but these two were already famous among the new students.

One was Cao Jinxuan, and the other was Long Xiangyue. They were the two little tyrants among the current freshmen.

Even Wang Dong, who prided herself on her exceptional talent, would not dare act so arrogantly before them.

Wang Dong raised her brows. These two were actually this senior's younger brothers? Just how strong was this senior?

Zhou Sichen turned to Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong. "I'll come find you when I have time. I need to take them out and discuss something."

Huo Yuhao nodded repeatedly. "Alright, Brother Zhou."

Zhou Sichen led Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue away. Before leaving, he gave Mu En a slight bow. Though the two brothers did not understand why their eldest brother was bowing to this little old man, they followed suit.

Following Big Brother could never be wrong.

Watching the backs of Zhou Sichen and the others as they departed, Mu En wore a gentle smile. He had heard the passing youngsters mention Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue before.

Those two little fellows were quite promising as well.

Mu En gave a soft sigh. "Shrek is truly lively this year..."

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong watched Zhou Sichen leave. Wang Dong tugged at Huo Yuhao's sleeve. "Did you see them? Those two younger brothers of that senior just now."

Huo Yuhao nodded, though he did not seem surprised. Brother Zhou was so formidable, so naturally his younger brothers would not be lacking.

If Wang Dong had previously only held a favorable impression of Zhou Sichen and thought that this senior had quite a background—

Then that impression had now risen even higher. Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue were two of the few Soul Elders among the freshmen. If he had two younger brothers with such talent, what level must the elder brother be at?

Even Wang Dong, with her talent, found the two of them extremely impressive.

Most importantly, if Zhou Sichen had no talent, then in this world where strength reigned supreme, his two younger brothers would not look at him like little fans worshipping their idol.

So Senior Zhou was most likely a super genius as well!

Thinking of this, Wang Dong clenched her fists. Back in her sect, she had been a little princess. Though she usually did not like cultivating, after arriving at Shrek, she had finally realized that there were always greater people beyond one's sight.

But that was good. If Shrek Academy were full of nothing but crooked melons and cracked dates, she would not have wanted to come at all!

Only by competing on the same stage as these geniuses could she demonstrate her own talent and strength!

As Zhou Sichen strolled through Shrek Academy with Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue, chatting along the way, the two learned that their eldest brother had already become a senior of the Inner Court. They were both immensely envious and proud.

Seeing Long Xiangyue's smug look, Zhou Sichen smiled. "I'm the one who entered the Inner Court. What are you so proud of?"

Long Xiangyue grinned. "My eldest brother is an Inner Court senior now. What's wrong with being proud? Jinxuan, with Big Brother watching over us, we'll be able to strut through the academy from now on!"

Cao Jinxuan was somewhat more reserved than Long Xiangyue and not nearly as showy, but he was also very happy that his eldest brother had entered the Inner Court.

Zhou Sichen lightly rapped Long Xiangyue on the head. "With your current strength, aren't the two of you already able to strut through the freshmen?"

Hearing that, Long Xiangyue grew even smugger. "Of course! We're the Three Heroes of Tianyuan City, alright? We're top-tier geniuses wherever we go!"

"Though Jinxuan and I can't compare to Big Brother, among all these freshmen at Shrek Academy, only a handful can even measure up to us."

Zhou Sichen smiled faintly as he listened to Long Xiangyue.

In the original story, the three brothers had only been in their twenties during the Freshman Assessment. But things were different now.

Zhou Sichen possessed the continent's greatest talent. Though Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue themselves had not changed much, under Zhou Sichen's influence, they had cultivated diligently since childhood and progressed smoothly all the way.

Moreover, nearly all of Tianyuan City's resources for the younger generation had been devoted to supporting the three brothers. That was how they had achieved their current accomplishments.

Long Xiangyue was now a Level 31 Soul Elder, while Cao Jinxuan had reached Level 32. Compared to the same period in the original story, they had improved by at least four or five levels.

Such cultivation speed naturally came from extraordinary talent, but it also could not have been achieved without their hard work.

While children their age were still playing around, these two had already been enduring hardship alongside Zhou Sichen. Their achievements today were earned through their own efforts.

Cao Jinxuan said, "I used to think Big Brother was just harsh. Only now do I realize how fortunate we are."

Long Xiangyue nodded in agreement. "Yeah, yeah! Big Brother, you have no idea how those freshmen looked at us back then!"

Zhou Sichen chuckled. He had expected this long ago. There were only a few Shrek freshmen who had reached Level 30 or above, and with these two added to their ranks, they naturally drew countless gazes.

After learning about Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue's lives in the Outer Court, Zhou Sichen finally felt at ease.

Although Long Xiangyue was somewhat smug, Cao Jinxuan was reserved and steady. Coupled with their formidable strength, they should not run into any trouble.

Zhou Sichen took out a porcelain bottle from his Soul Tool and handed it to them. "There are two Soul Nourishing Pills inside. One for each of you."

Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue did not refuse. Though the three were not blood brothers, they were closer than true brothers, so there was no need for formalities.

Besides, since Zhou Sichen had taken them out, he had clearly prepared them for the two of them.

Ah, Big Brother really was the best.

Cao Jinxuan accepted the porcelain bottle. "Thank you, Big Brother."

Long Xiangyue was incredibly excited. "Damn, Soul Nourishing Pills? Big Brother, did you strike it rich?"

Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue had studied diligently over the years. Though they had never eaten one, they knew the value of Soul Nourishing Pills.

Zhou Sichen replied, "Don't you know your brother's talent? Dean Yan gave these to me. I took one myself, but at my current strength, this thing doesn't do much anymore. They'll be more valuable in your hands."

Hearing that, the two could not help feeling envious. Big Brother was Big Brother—he was a super genius wherever he went!

The two brothers accepted the pills and headed toward the Cafeteria. Zhou Sichen had not eaten anything yet.

Along the way, Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue could not help asking, "Brother, have you seen Big Sister? She's been getting busier and busier since entering the Inner Court."

Zhou Sichen shook his head. "Elder Sister has business outside the academy. She probably won't be back for a month or two."

Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue exchanged a look. "Then won't you become a stone waiting for his wife?"

Zhou Sichen and Ye Guyi were not truly siblings. Though they addressed each other as siblings, everyone who understood knew what was between them.

Even Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue dared to gossip about it.

Zhou Sichen merely smiled and did not deny it. "Come on, hurry to the Cafeteria and get something to eat. I'm starving."

The Outer Court's Cafeteria naturally could not compare to the Inner Court's, but the food tasted about the same. The three brothers ate and chatted together.

Although Zhou Sichen's mental age was more than twice that of his two younger brothers, Douluo Continent was a world where people matured early.

On top of that, Zhou Sichen had guided and raised his two younger brothers well, so they were far more mature than children their age.

The three brothers discussed various matters. Only after their meal did Zhou Sichen bid Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue farewell.

Though the two brothers were reluctant, they knew that their eldest brother was now an Inner Court Disciple and bore many burdens. He had it far harder than they did.

As they watched their eldest brother's retreating back, their resolve to grow stronger became even firmer.

Big Brother was already so powerful, yet he still worked so hard. How could they, as his younger brothers, hold him back?

Zhou Sichen was also very pleased to have younger brothers like Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue.

Both had excellent talent. In the original story, Cao Jinxuan had been the primary control Soul Master of Shrek Academy's team two generations later. His Time Flows Bell martial soul was a special martial soul with a time attribute.

As everyone knew, nothing capable of controlling the Power of Time could be weak.

Long Xiangyue's Dragon Bone Shuriken was somewhat inferior, but it was still an advanced martial soul. And although he was usually extremely smug, he was also someone who refused to admit defeat.

He had chased after Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan all this time. Over the years, he had endured plenty of hardship just to catch up with his two elder brothers.

Now that the two had far surpassed their original-story strength, and with Zhou Sichen supporting them in the future, they would surely become renowned across the continent.

Moreover, they were important members of Zhou Sichen's future foundation, people he could truly entrust himself to.
