Enrollment

Chen Feng saw that they had arrived at Shrek Academy and said to Ling Luochen beside him, "Senior Sister Ling, I'll go register first."

Ling Luochen looked at Chen Feng, a faint smile appearing on her cool face. "You're unfamiliar with Shrek Academy. I'll take you to register." With that, she led Chen Feng toward the registration area.

Clearly, for a Genius like Chen Feng, with peerless talent, Twin Martial Souls, and an Ultimate Martial Soul, Ling Luochen hoped to befriend him even if no sparks of romance flew between them.

Chen Feng naturally passed through without obstruction. Perhaps because he was walking alongside Ling Luochen, an Inner Courtyard disciple, he drew many envious looks from the academy's students.

Chen Feng, with his nerves of steel, paid them no mind.

At the registration area stood more than a dozen young men and women only a few years older than Chen Feng. Each wore a fitted yellow uniform with a green badge on the chest. This was the uniform of Shrek Academy's second- and third-year Outer Courtyard students.

The two leaders were the most eye-catching, dressed in purple uniforms. Purple was the uniform color for fourth- and fifth-year students.

One of those in purple was a boy who looked only fourteen or fifteen. He was of average build, with neat, short black hair, regular features, and a friendly smile. At that moment, he was testing the Soul Power of the new female students who had come to register.

The other was a girl around the same age as the boy. Her looks were ordinary, but she had a fine figure, and she was testing the Soul Power of several male students.

Just then, a handsome young man and a beautiful young woman appeared at the registration area.

"An Inner Courtyard Senior Sister!!!"

The Outer Courtyard students at the registration area immediately stood up and looked at Ling Luochen respectfully. "Senior Sister, what do you need?"

At Shrek Academy, Inner Courtyard disciples held even higher status than Outer Courtyard teachers, so this reaction from the Outer Courtyard students was perfectly normal.

Ling Luochen said coolly, "I brought a younger brother here to register. Hurry it up."

"The younger brother of an Inner Courtyard Senior Sister? No test is needed. Hand in the recommendation letter, and he can enroll directly."

Chen Feng, standing beside Ling Luochen, said, "I'd still like to take the test."

The students at the registration area immediately handed the crystal ball used for testing Soul Power to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng handed over his recommendation letter and registered his information. Soul Power gathered in his palm as he placed his hand on the crystal ball and poured it into the blue crystal sphere.

The blue crystal ball immediately glowed brightly, erupting with dazzling radiance.

"Th-this... Soul Power above level thirty? What kind of monster is this?!"

The new students registering, as well as the older students already enrolled, all stared at Chen Feng in shock.

Chen Feng smiled. "Senior Brother, my test result qualifies, right?"

The person in charge of new student registration stared blankly at Chen Feng and nodded repeatedly. "Qualified, qualified. After the test..."

Before he could finish, Ling Luochen cut him off. "I'll explain the rest to Chen Feng later. Continue receiving the other new students."

Ling Luochen said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, come on. I'll show you around Shrek Academy."

After Chen Feng and Ling Luochen left, heated discussion immediately erupted at the registration area.

Naturally, Chen Feng knew nothing about it.

Shrek Academy had a beautiful environment, with abundant and lush vegetation. Walking along the broad avenue, no matter where one looked, one could see at least ten kinds of plants. They had clearly all been carefully trimmed.

After advancing two hundred meters, several enormous statues ahead blocked their view. There were ten statues in total, each ten meters tall, carved from the hardest granite.

These were the Golden Iron Triangle who had founded Shrek Academy ten thousand years ago, along with the First-generation Shrek Seven Monsters.

Ling Luochen explained them to Chen Feng at an unhurried pace. As they walked, the two looked like a couple, drawing sidelong glances from many passing students.

Heading left from the statues, the road remained broad enough for four or five carriages to travel side by side. A sign by the roadside read: Lakeside Path.

Through the shady green trees on their right, they could vaguely see a broad expanse of water. In other words, behind the ten statues lay a huge lake.

Ling Luochen said to Chen Feng, "The island in the center of the lake is Sea God Island. We Inner Courtyard disciples study there. If you run into any trouble in the Outer Courtyard, you can come find me."

After saying that, she tossed Chen Feng a medal. Chen Feng did not refuse and happily accepted it.

The two strolled along the Lakeside Path. They headed south for nearly a quarter of an hour before turning west, then walked for another quarter of an hour before the path began to narrow. A vast rectangular plaza came into view, with a sign beside it reading Shrek Plaza.

Behind Shrek Plaza stood rows of tall teaching buildings in different colors, mainly white, yellow, purple, and black. Farther away was another cluster of gray teaching buildings.

"The colors of the teaching buildings represent different grades, divided according to the colors of Spirit Rings. White is for the New Student Teaching Building, like the lowest-tier ten-year Spirit Rings. Yellow is for the second- and third-year Outer Courtyard teaching buildings, while purple is for the fourth- and fifth-year buildings. Black is for the sixth-year teaching building. Anyone who graduates from the black teaching building can receive an Outer Courtyard diploma from the academy."

"Those gray teaching buildings in the distance belong to the Soul Tool Department. Besides these teaching buildings at the front, there are many specialized teaching areas behind them as well, such as the Soul Battle Arena, Assessment Area, Dormitory Area, Teacher Office Area, and so on. Once you've studied at the academy for a while, you'll gradually become familiar with them. The white New Student Teaching Building is on the southernmost side."

"Come on. I'll take you to pay the tuition, assign you to a class and dormitory, and collect your new student uniform."

With Ling Luochen there, Chen Feng completed the procedures very quickly. He was assigned to Freshman Class Nine.

After receiving his dormitory key, two uniforms, and a white new student badge, Chen Feng and Ling Luochen walked out of the New Student Teaching Building.

Ling Luochen said, "It's getting late. I need to return to the Inner Courtyard too. Remember to come find me there if you need anything."

With that, Ling Luochen stepped into Sea God Lake. Lotus flowers bloomed beneath every step as she moved swiftly across the water. Each light tap of her toes left behind a round ice crystal on the lake's surface, sparkling brilliantly under the sunlight as she quickly headed toward Sea God Island in the center of the lake.

Chen Feng watched Ling Luochen's departing figure and smelled the lingering fragrance of her body. The Yin-Yang Art within him immediately gave off a sense of yearning.

Chen Feng's expression remained unchanged. His powerful mental will was not affected in the slightest, and he showed no attachment as he headed toward the Dormitory Building.

On the way, Chen Feng glanced at a notice posted on a bulletin board not far away.

It read: Homeroom teacher of Freshman Class Nine, Stone.
