The old man's face showed surprise. Of course he knew Dai Mubai's strength well. Though he was only Level 37 now, he could still exchange several moves with an ordinary Soul Ancestor. If it were a lower-level Soul Ancestor, he might even be able to win.

Now Dai Mubai was telling him that he had been defeated by a Level 27 child. He simply could not believe it.

At that moment, Li Chen heard a soft, sweet voice from ahead. Sure enough, he spotted a fair-skinned girl with short hair.

"Excuse me, may I pass this test?"

So this must be Ning Rongrong.

"Wait to the side for now. You'll enter the next stage with the others later," the old man said gently to the petite, beautiful girl.

Xiao Wu nudged Li Chen with her elbow and whispered, "Li Chen, look at that girl."

Following Xiao Wu's gaze, Li Chen saw a girl dressed in tight black leather, with a cool expression and an extremely voluptuous figure.

"So big," Li Chen muttered.

Hiss!

"Xiao Wu, why are you pinching me?!"

Li Chen suddenly felt a sharp pain at his waist. Looking down, he saw Xiao Wu pinching a chunk of his flesh and twisting it clockwise one hundred and eighty degrees.

Xiao Wu said with embarrassment and annoyance, "You men are all pigs! All you think about is that kind of thing. Did I tell you to look there?"

"Then where did you want me to look?"

Li Chen had no idea what Xiao Wu wanted him to see and could only give her an innocent little look.

"Look, those two are about our age. They both look completely confident. Could they also have Innate Full Soul Power? This Shrek Academy really does seem to have something to it."

Li Chen was now wondering what kind of cheat he should arrange for Zhu Zhuqing.

"Tangyuan, deploy the cheat!"

Subsystem Name: Eavesdrop on Heart's Voice Subsystem Host: Zhu Zhuqing System Description: The host could selectively allow Zhu Zhuqing to hear the host's inner thoughts. This would make Zhu Zhuqing believe that she possessed a special ability, and the host could also use this to make Zhu Zhuqing trust him.

Li Chen muttered, "Zhu Zhuqing, don't blame me. I'm not fickle. I just want to give every girl a home. Dai Mubai is too much of a bastard."

"Go, Pikachu!"

A trace of confusion suddenly appeared on Zhu Zhuqing's expressionless face. She felt as though something about her had changed, but she could not say what exactly was different.

But then her expression suddenly changed.

She heard a pleasant male voice in her mind. So this is Zhu Zhuqing. What a pity she's lovesick. She went through all the trouble of coming to the Heaven Dou Empire to take revenge, yet her fiancé had long since abandoned her and was here chasing women.

"Who?"

"Who's speaking?"

Zhu Zhuqing's cool voice rang out beside everyone's ears, instantly drawing all their attention.

It was no wonder she was so shocked. This was her greatest secret. By all rights, no one in the Heaven Dou Empire should have known about it. Yet she had just heard someone mention it—and they had even mentioned Dai Mubai. Was Dai Mubai here too?

"Little girl, what's wrong? Are you still registering?" The old man seated behind the table waved a hand before Zhu Zhuqing's eyes and asked doubtfully.

"Little girl, are you all right?"

Only then did Zhu Zhuqing realize it was her turn to register for the test. Following the instructions, she extended her hand for the old man to examine her bone age.

But she was certain that what she had heard just now was not an illusion. She swept her gaze around the area.

The only people still here were Li Chen's group of three, a registration teacher, a girl dressed in blue, and one more—a blond man.

She suddenly sensed an intense gaze upon her, and it filled her with faint disgust.

She was already used to the nauseating looks men gave her, but suddenly, her martial soul felt a trace of familiarity.

After carefully examining the tall blond man, she suddenly realized something. Is this my fiancé?

The voice I heard said that Dai Mubai abandoned her and hid in the Heaven Dou Empire to chase women. That means it couldn't have been Dai Mubai speaking. Then there are only two boys left here.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes swept over Li Chen and Tang San. She said nothing more and followed the old man's instructions to stand beside Ning Rongrong.

"Qualified!"

"Qualified!"

Li Chen and Xiao Wu both passed the test smoothly. Tang San was last in line.

Tang San felt that passing the test should be no problem at all. He did not even need the teacher's letter of recommendation.

The testing teacher squeezed his hand and asked suspiciously, "Have you practiced some kind of hand technique?"

"Yes, Teacher."

"Bring your face over here so I can pinch it. You haven't practiced any thick-skinned technique on your face, have you?"

Tang San found the question a little strange, but before he had time to think about it, a large hand had already rubbed back and forth over his left cheek several times.

"Your age qualifies, but your Soul Power feels somewhat unstable. That'll be difficult."

Tang San's mouth fell open. Like Xiao Wu, he was Level 21. Logically speaking, Xiao Wu rarely left the dormitory and was too lazy to cultivate, so her Soul Power should have been more unstable than his. Xiao Wu had passed smoothly, so there was no reason he should fail.

"Teacher, how could my Soul Power be unstable? I cultivated it bit by bit myself."

"Let me see your martial soul and Soul Rings. If they're decent enough, I'll let you pass this stage."

Upon hearing that, Tang San immediately revealed his Blue Silver Grass martial soul. Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing stared at the two Soul Rings on his hand, their jaws nearly dropping in shock.

"Have you ever seen pale white Soul Rings?" Ning Rongrong poked Zhu Zhuqing and asked from the side.

Although Zhu Zhuqing did not like people striking up conversations with her, Ning Rongrong was still a girl and might very well become her classmate in the future.

So she did her best to suppress the coldness in her voice, revealing a slight smile. "I haven't, but those probably aren't ordinary Soul Rings. After all, no Soul Master would use Soul Rings that weak."

The testing teacher was equally astonished. After examining him for a while, he slowly asked, "You have a Blue Silver Grass martial soul, with a first Soul Ring that is less than ten years old and a second Soul Ring that has barely reached one hundred years. Is that right?"

Tang San nodded. "That's right, Teacher."

"Although I don't know how you cultivated a Blue Silver Grass martial soul so quickly, I'm sorry. If that's all there is to it, we can't admit you. This is Shrek Academy. We only accept Little Monsters."

"You don't meet the standard!"

Tang San had never imagined that he would be rejected so thoroughly, especially in front of so many girls. On top of that, he had told Dai Mubai just yesterday that he would definitely join Shrek Academy. He immediately felt that he had lost all face.
