Sign-in... Shao Xin, Martial Soul: Sugar Bean, Level 71 Food-Type Soul Saint. Choice: strip Shao Xin of 0.5 levels of soul power... Stripping successful. Host's current soul power: Level 33...
As Zhao Zilong stripped Shao Xin of his soul power, Shao Xin had already produced three sugar beans. "Take them! The green sugar bean heals wounds, the black sugar bean restores soul power, and the blue sugar bean increases speed."
"Thank you, Teacher Shao Xin..." After taking the sugar beans, Zhao Zilong immediately left. Getting the sugar beans was merely a pretext; he had really come to sign in.
Task completed: sign in with Shrek's five teachers. Reward: movement technique—Lingbo Weibu.
Looking at the panel before him:
Name: Zhao Zilong; Age: 12; Martial Soul: Blue Silver Emperor (Intermediate Martial Soul, Blue Silver Emperor bloodline not awakened); Innate Soul Power: Level 3.5; Soul Power: Level 33; Soul Rings: First Soul Ring, 999 years; Second Soul Ring, 999 years; Third Soul Ring, 5,100 years; Soul Skills: First Soul Skill: Bamboo Leaf Sword Rain (soul ring obtained from Ghost Bamboo; every bamboo leaf is sharp as a blade); Second Soul Skill: Heartbreak Poison (soul ring obtained from heartbreak grass, causing Blue Silver Grass to carry a potent poison); Third Soul Skill: Spider Web Bind (soul ring obtained from a Man Faced Demon Spider; an area soul skill usable against either a single target or a group) Special Abilities: Tang Sect Hidden Weapon Techniques, Tang Sect Hundred Poisons, Lingbo Weibu... External Soul Bone: Eight Spider Lances; Soul Skill: Enhance (enhances all attributes by 50%); Soul Skill: Devour (devours the opponent's soul power and fully replenishes the host's soul power consumption, while also carrying a potent poison)
Zhao Zilong stroked his chin as he looked at the reward. Lingbo Weibu... I wonder which is stronger, this or Tang San's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track?
The system's voice sounded. "That still depends on the user's speed. As far as the techniques themselves are concerned, Lingbo Weibu is slightly superior to Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track."
Not bad. Zhao Zilong was quite satisfied with the task. As Shrek's headmaster and vice-headmaster, Flender and Zhao Wuji had each been stripped of 1 level of Innate Soul Power, while Li Yusong, Li Qibin, and Shao Xin, as teachers, had each been stripped of 0.5 levels of soul power.
However, 3.5 levels of Innate Soul Power was still far too little. His talent was simply incomparable to that of the Shrek Seven Devils. He could only wait until the Shrek Battle Team was formed and see whether he could strip more Innate Soul Power from them.
Even if there were seven of them and he stripped 0.5 levels of Innate Soul Power from each, that would still amount to 3.5 levels.
Form the Shrek Battle Team soon! Zhao Zilong only hoped that the Shrek Battle Team would be established quickly. Only then could he complete the subsequent tasks. After all, he only had a temporary advantage in soul power right now; in terms of talent, he was still far behind the others at Shrek.
"Hey, Zhao Zilong..." A sweet voice called out just then.
"Meng Yiran." Zhao Zilong looked at the lovely figure running toward him.
Behind Meng Yiran were Dragon Duke Meng Shu, Snake Grandma Chao Tianxiang, and Zhao Wuji. Zhao Zilong stepped forward and said, "Greetings, Seniors."
Meng Shu stroked his beard and smiled at Zhao Zilong. "Mm, Zilong, we meet again. Yiran will be studying here with you from now on, so look after her for me!"
"Yes."
Zhao Wuji extended a hand. "Seniors, this way, please. I'll take you to see the headmaster and handle Meng Yiran's enrollment procedures."
"Mm, lead the way." Meng Shu nodded calmly.
Meng Yiran smiled at Zhao Zilong. "Zhao Zilong, see you in a bit."
"Mm."
Dragon Duke and Snake Grandma's arrival was naturally welcomed by Flender. After all, Dragon Duke Meng Shu was a Soul Douluo powerhouse, and the couple's Martial Soul Fusion Skill was comparable to that of a Titled Douluo. Flender did not dare slight them in the least. Once he collected the money, Meng Yiran's enrollment procedures were quickly completed.
"Zilong, take Meng Yiran around the academy!" Zhao Wuji walked over and handed Meng Yiran over to Zhao Zilong.
Meng Yiran walked over, her face slightly flushed. She had kept remembering what her grandfather had said, and every time she thought of it, she felt embarrassed.
"There doesn't seem to be much to see around this academy, does there?" Zhao Zilong was somewhat speechless. Though the academy was fairly large, it was basically just a village! There were even quite a few villagers living on the other side. Looking at Meng Yiran, he said, "Fine, I got it. Let's go, Yiran." With that, Zhao Zilong walked ahead first. Meng Yiran immediately stamped her foot in anger before quickly catching up.
When Meng Yiran caught up, Zhao Zilong grinned. "What do you think of Shrek Academy?"
"Can I be honest?" Meng Yiran looked at Zhao Zilong mischievously. Without waiting for his answer, she said somewhat haughtily, "To be honest, I'm a little disappointed. This academy is a bit too... you know."
"Run-down, right?" Zhao Zilong chuckled. "Now that you've come to this academy, are you a little disappointed?"
"A little." Meng Yiran answered directly. "By the way, where is everyone else? Why are you the only one in the academy?"
Zhao Zilong grinned. "They all went out to have fun. At Shrek Academy, we have half an hour of physical training and one theory class every morning. Once class is over, we can leave. Sometimes there are practical combat classes, but the rest of the time, students study on their own, including soul power cultivation. Of course, there won't be any Simulated Training Environment here either."
"This..." Meng Yiran was speechless upon hearing that. What kind of academy had she come to? She asked, "Then how do you all cultivate so quickly? Is there some secret method?"
Zhao Zilong grinned and explained, "What secret method could there be? Everyone here is a genius. Three of them have Innate Full Soul Power, while the others all have Level Eight or Nine Innate Soul Power. For them, increasing their soul power is as easy as playing around, so the teachers basically don't manage us much. They're mainly responsible for cleaning up after us."
Meng Yiran was stunned. How could this group's talents all be so good? Even the lowest had Level Eight Innate Soul Power. She immediately felt somewhat inferior. Zhao Zilong asked, "What level is your Innate Soul Power?"
"Mine is only Level Seven." Meng Yiran said somewhat self-consciously. She felt that after coming to this academy, she would basically be at the bottom.
"Level Seven Innate Soul Power isn't bad, actually. Including you, there are now nine students in our academy, while there are five teachers." Zhao Zilong was not surprised to hear Meng Yiran's Innate Soul Power. He then looked at her and said, "There doesn't seem to be much to see around this academy. It's mostly rural scenery. Once you've been here for a while, you'll gradually become familiar with it yourself."
"Let's go eat something in the cafeteria. Since a new student has arrived today, the headmaster will probably give a speech or something. The others should also be called back by the teachers."
"Oh."
