The air on the testing grounds was no longer merely heavy.
It had solidified.
Like a slab of pork fat frozen for three days—cold and hard.
Zhao Wuji's dark face had turned liver-red.
He, the Immovable Ming King, the Soul Saint Zhao Wuji, had been played in circles by a six-year-old brat.
In front of five prospective students, he had been utterly humiliated.
Dai Mubai's Adam's apple bobbed. He had a bad feeling about this.
He stepped forward, his voice trembling.
"Teacher Zhao, show mercy! He's still a child!"
It would have been better if he had said nothing. The moment he spoke, it was like dumping a ladle of cold water into boiling oil.
It exploded.
"Shut up!"
Zhao Wuji roared, the shockwave blowing the dust on the ground away in a ring.
His eyes no longer held anger.
They were burning.
Crimson flames locked tightly onto Han Yuchen.
"Today, I'm fucking going to see what kind of freak this little bastard really is!"
Before his words had even faded, he threw back his head and let out a thunderous howl!
"Roar—!"
Buzz!
The seventh soul ring, the black Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring representing the pinnacle glory of a soul master, suddenly lit up!
Its radiance was blinding, like a black sun.
Zhao Wuji's body began to crackle violently.
His muscles bulged, his bones grew explosively!
Brown-black fur burst crazily from beneath his skin, covering his entire body in an instant.
The 1.9-meter-tall burly man expanded into a terrifying giant bear over ten meters tall within a few breaths!
Boom!
The giant bear landed, and all of Shrek Academy shook three times.
Its dark golden fur glimmered with a metallic sheen beneath the sunlight. Its terrifying Soul Power aura became a tangible storm that swept in every direction!
