The Star Dou Great Forest, as a shining pearl of the Douluo Continent, is not only breathtaking for its vast, boundless expanse but also filled with mystery and danger due to the countless Soul Beasts bred within it.

This vast primeval forest is like a magnificent painting meticulously carved by nature, with every corner concealing miracles of life and the mysteries of power.

Spanning the borders of two great empires, the Star Dou Great Forest is not merely a geographical dividing line, but also a mysterious barrier between the world of Soul Beasts and the world of humans.

Situated at the junction of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, it stands silently, witnessing the courage and wisdom of countless adventurers while swallowing those lives that are full of curiosity about the unknown world but woefully unprepared.

The terrain inside the forest is intricate and complex, with wetlands, marshes, and dense forests intertwined to form natural barriers that protect the Soul Beasts living there.

These Soul Beasts multiply and thrive on this land, living in harmony with nature and collectively maintaining the ecological balance of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The closer one gets to the central area of the forest, the more powerful the Soul Beasts become, with some even possessing the strength to rival a human Titled Douluo.

Legend has it that the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest also hide the traces of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. These Soul Beasts are not only exceptionally powerful but also possess incredibly precious Soul Rings and Soul Bones.

For any Soul Master, being able to capture the Soul Ring and Soul Bone of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast would be the greatest honor and achievement of their life, allowing their own strength to achieve a qualitative leap.

Therefore, countless Soul Masters, carrying dreams and hopes, step into this mysterious forest in search of their own opportunities and miracles.

With the aid of Oscar's sausages, it took only one day of travel. By the time night fell, the group from Shrek Academy had covered over four hundred kilometers and was already very close to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Seeing that they could not reach their destination today, Zhao Wuji gave the order to rest.

Since they happened to have arrived at a small town, it was hard to say if there would be any supplies if they continued further.

The night curtain hung low, but the town did not fall silent because of it; instead, it was lit up by lanterns, as bright and warm as daylight.

On the streets, the flow of people was like a weave, bustling and lively. Laughter and the sounds of hawking were intertwined, forming a vivid picture of life.

Various shops were set up along the street, dazzling to the eye, each one showcasing the unique charm of this town.

Most of these shops revolved around the needs of Soul Masters, offering everything from weapons and armor to detoxifying and restorative potions, providing comprehensive equipment support for those Soul Masters who came to hunt for Soul Rings and explore the unknown.

After a day of rushing about, the members of Shrek Academy decided to stay overnight in this town.

They chose a small hotel. Although it was not luxurious, it had a unique charm of its own.

It was a two-story building, simple yet elegant. The lobby on the first floor was a restaurant, and at this moment, quite a few guests were dining there.

The second floor was for lodging. After checking the rooms, they found that while they weren't spacious, they were clean and tidy, emitting a faint scent of pine.

The members of Shrek Academy each found their rooms and put down their luggage, preparing to get a good rest to recharge for tomorrow's adventure.

Shen He and Zhao Wuji both stayed in single rooms, while the stench on Great Master Yu had not yet dissipated, so Shen He arranged for him to stay with Tang San.

The few students sat around a table, preparing to have dinner.

Shen He went to the restroom, and upon returning, he happened to hear Dai Mubai say with a hint of disdain: "It's just a tiny Blue Sunshine Academy, what is there to be so arrogant about!"

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw seven people standing before the students of Shrek Academy—six boys and one girl, all around twenty years old, dressed in moon-white soul master robes.

On the shoulders of their robes was an embroidered cyan ring, with the characters "Canghui" stitched inside.

Shen He pricked up his ears and caught Oscar whispering into Tang San's ear, "Dean Flender once said that a soul master who doesn't dare to stir up trouble isn't a good soul master. In other words, those who don't dare to cause trouble are mediocre."

After hearing Oscar's words, a flash of smugness crossed Dai Mubai's eyes.

He released his Martial Soul without hesitation, ready to teach these arrogant people from Blue Sunshine Academy a lesson.

In his view, as a prince of the Star Luo Empire and the senior student of Shrek Academy, having reached the realm of a high-level Soul Elder while still in his teens, his talent ranked among the best on the entire continent.

Furthermore, he was accustomed to associating with the cream of the crop when it came to beauties, such as the twin sisters he had encountered when he first met Tang San.

Today, for him and Ma Hongjun to tease this girl of average looks was doing her a favor!

To be teased by him, Young Master Dai, was this woman's honor! The fact that these people dared to strike back at him was simply courting death.

The five Blue Sunshine students stood together, the fury in their chests erupting like a volcano. In an instant, they released their respective Martial Souls without hesitation.

As the top students of their academy, how could they be willing to stumble here and lose to this group of callow youths?

In a flash, the air became brilliant and colorful as five beams of light intertwined. Their soul ring configurations were identical: one white and one yellow.

Two of them held spears and tridents, their edges sharp and menacing.

The other three possessed deer, sheep, and horse Martial Souls, which could hardly be considered top-tier.

At the very least, judging from the level of their Martial Souls, they did not display any remarkable power.

Dai Mubai let out a cold snort. His White Tiger Martial Soul suddenly possessed him, and a cold killing intent quietly permeated the air, exuding a domineering majesty.

Beneath his feet, two dazzling yellow soul rings and one mysterious purple soul ring rose in sequence. As they rotated slowly, his surging Soul Power felt like crashing waves, sweeping outward and creating a suffocating pressure.

Perhaps due to the natural suppression between Martial Souls, the moment Dai Mubai completed this shocking Martial Soul Avatar, the three beast-type battle soul masters opposite him couldn't help but tremble, instinctively wanting to retreat.

In the presence of the King of Beasts, how could the docile deer, sheep, and horse not feel fear?

In particular, the thousand-year soul ring on Dai Mubai's body dealt a heavy blow to the hearts of the Blue Sunshine students, forcing them to succumb to their fear.

Shen He watched this scene and chuckled inwardly, thinking that he had encountered another classic scene from the original work.

The phrase "those who don't dare to cause trouble are mediocre" was quite famous in the original Douluo Continent.

But the essence of this statement was to encourage bullying the weak. Although Douluo Continent was a fantasy world where there was a distinction between the strong and the weak, as an educational institution, shouldn't Shrek Academy at least cultivate basic morality and humanity in its students?

Should the strong be allowed to bully the weak at will? Should the weak be slaves to the strong? What kind of bullshit educational philosophy was this?

But things are different now, because the master of Shrek Academy has become Shen He.

How Shrek Academy develops in the future and how it educates its students is all up to him!

Dai Mubai follows the school motto "a person who dares not cause trouble is mediocre" and picks a fight with the group from Blue Sunshine Academy.

Shen He looks at the narration before him, and suddenly, a bright idea strikes him. He changes "cause trouble" to "stuffing their faces."

Dai Mubai stands up abruptly, slams his hand onto the table, and says viciously to the few people from Blue Sunshine Academy, "You've got guts. Do you dare to compete with us in a stuffing-your-face contest?"

"If you beat us, we'll admit that you are the true big eaters!"
