News Brought by Ma Xiaotao
Shrek Academy.
Time flies, and more than three months have passed since Zhou Huan became an ordinary Shrek teacher.
Today happens to be the final day of this year's Freshman Competition.
On the stage, the two teams that entered the finals were Class One and Class 5. The three people from Class 5 were Niu Meng, Xu Xiaomeng, and an unimportant Passerby A.
After three months of cultivation and training, Xu Xiaomeng's Soul Power reached the peak of level 24, and Niu Meng also obtained his Second Soul Ring with the help of Zhou Huan, a Hundred-year Soul Ring with an extremely suitable age and attributes.
Niu Meng was, after all, the class monitor of Class 5, and Zhou Huan had nothing better to do, so he took the opportunity to give his class monitor a perk.
In this Freshman Competition final, Zhou Huan still had high hopes for Niu Meng and Xu Xiaomeng, because the quality of this year's freshmen was still not high.
In the Audience Stands, Zhou Huan, Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, and the Lan sisters sat together, eagerly preparing to watch the match.
Actually, they don't care much about the competition results; they just want their students to perform to their full potential.
Looking at these little kids is like looking at myself when I was young; it's actually a kind of fun.
Zhou Fengchu chuckled and said, "Captain, you're amazing! In your first year as Class Advisor, you've already led a team to the finals."
Cao Wolong immediately chimed in, "Of course! Who is our captain? A god! If the Heavenly Soul Empire weren't already gone, and the other Great Emperor weren't still at war, preventing the All-Continent Soul Master Competition from even starting, our captain would definitely have led a team to victory. Back in the day, we were practically uncrowned champions!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Fengchu nodded with a look of "reminiscing about the past, those glorious years," and said, "Yes, we were also Child of Light in this era."
Listening to Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix flattering him while also boasting about themselves, Zhou Huan inwardly rolled his eyes, but outwardly replied calmly, "The past is the past, no matter how glorious it was. Keep a low profile, keep a low profile."
The Lan sisters, standing to the side, pursed their lips speechlessly, looked at the Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, and said in unison, "It's one thing for the captain to show off, after all, the captain is really awesome. But you two really have the nerve to say that, one is the uncrowned crown, and the other is the child of Child of Light. Why don't you just say you are the Child of Fate?"
Men are vain and immature.
The Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix did not refute Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo's words, but merely exchanged a glance, immediately discerning the meaning in each other's eyes. "Ha! Women! Long hair, short brains, they don't understand men's pleasures at all."
Zhou Huan, having seen through everything, did not expose the Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, but instead said, "The competition begins."
Everyone looked towards the arena. Lan Susu asked, "Captain, do you think our class will win, or your class?"
Zhou Huan smiled and said, "That's not important. Whether your class wins or our class wins, in the end, I still win."
Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo were both completely bewildered:???
Then they heard Zhou Huan continue explaining, "Because you are all team members I trained, your class is naturally my class too."
The Lan sisters: "..." Is that even possible? This is just too... shameless! So, all the students we teach belong to you?
Upon hearing Zhou Fengchu immediately remarked, "Captain, in terms of wisdom and logic, you are far superior. I admire you."
Zhou Huan waved his hand casually and said, "It's just basic stuff, no need to make a fuss."
Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo exchanged a glance, shook their heads and sighed, not wanting to say anything more.
Just then, a figure in red appeared in front of them with a "whoosh".
The newcomer had bright red hair and a voluptuous figure, as always.
"Senior Xiao Tao?"
The Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, and the Lan sisters looked at the girl in red with some surprise, because this senior hadn't appeared for a long time, and they wondered if she had gone into seclusion to cultivate or what.
Zhou Huan wasn't surprised at all; he had sensed the aura of this Flame Demon when Ma Xiaotao was about a kilometer away from him.
I've been back for so long, and this is the first time I've seen Ma Xiaotao. It seems she was on a mission before.
More than six years have passed, Ma Xiaotao has also broken through to the Super Douluo. It seems that she is now at level 96, which is not bad. She did not waste the Infernal Delicate Apricot Blazing Gum he gave her.
A level 96 Super Douluo with the Extreme Fire is a top-tier powerhouse in the Douluo Continent.
Ma Xiaotao nodded to the four Lan sisters, then looked at Zhou Huan and smiled, "I knew you wouldn't die."
Zhou Huan smiled in response, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Xiao Tao."
After Ma Xiaotao scoffed, she said, "I'm not worried about you. But as soon as I got back, I heard from the teacher that you're Outer Court Class Advisor at the Foreign Languages Department, so I came to see you and also to talk to you about something."
Zhou Huan nodded and said, "Sit down and let's talk."
Ma Xiaotao sat down next to Zhou Huan, not bothering to hide from the Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, and Lan sisters, and said directly, "After the destruction of the Heavenly Soul Empire, I knew that Shrek Academy's Soul Master alone could not stop the Sun Moon Army, so I didn't go to the battlefield of the Dou Ling Empire."
"You once said that the tide of imperial history is unstoppable, and it is indeed developing as you said. However, an empire can be destroyed, and even the Douluo Continent can be unified, but Shrek cannot be lost. Therefore, in order to advance to the Limit Douluo as soon as possible, I have no choice but to search for opportunities everywhere."
"Unfortunately, I didn't find a place like the Flame Palace from back then, nor did I obtain any great opportunities. But half a month ago, I discovered that a riot of Soul Beast had broken out in the Demonic Forest within the territory of the Sun Moon Empire. I even sensed power beyond that of Super Douluo, 99% of whom were Limit Douluo."
"But I was too far away at the time, and I didn't dare to get close, so I had no way of knowing which Limit Douluo were fighting."
"As far as we know, there are only two human Limit Douluo right now: Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao. But it's impossible for the two of them to fight. And since this happened in the Demonic Forest, I guess they probably fought with the Ferocious Beast of the Demonic Forest."
"I heard from the teacher that you're incredibly powerful now. Why don't you go check out the Sun Moon Empire? Maybe there's something extraordinary in the Demonic Forest."
Seeing Ma Xiaotao's excited expression, Zhou Huan was speechless.
What extraordinary things could be in the Demonic Forest? Besides the Holy Spirit Cult, there's only the Evil Eye Tyrant Clan there.
If there were any good items, they would probably be the Soul Ring and Soul Bone of the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, but Zhou Huan didn't need them.
After breaking through to the God King level, Zhou Huan's physical strength was simply too great. Although he was still missing a Head Soul Bone, where could he find a suitable Head Soul Bone from a Soul Beast?
Unless the Dragon God is resurrected and given the dragon head, there is absolutely no point in absorbing the Head Soul Bone of another Ferocious Beast now.
Therefore, Zhou Huan had absolutely no interest in the Soul Beast uprising in the Demonic Forest. It was simply because he had driven Ye Xishui and the Holy Spirit Cult back to the Demonic Forest, and then the Holy Spirit Cult Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord and started fighting.
Seeing Zhou Huan's listless expression, Ma Xiaotao glanced at him sideways and said, "You're not just too lazy to move, are you?"
So Zhou Huan explained the Holy Spirit Cult to Ma Xiaotao, saying that going to the Demonic Forest now was pointless, and finally added, "Xuan Zi might still have some Immortal Herb. If you want to improve your cultivation, you can go and ask him."
"What? Immortal Herb? I have to go check it out. Oh dear, why didn't the teacher mention this? I'm off!"
As the saying goes, what comes quickly goes quickly; the Flame Demon vanished in a flash.
Then, Zhou Huan turned his head and saw Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, and the Lan sisters staring at him blankly.
Zhou Huan was a little confused. "What's wrong? Why are you watching me instead of the game?"
The Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, and the Lan sisters: "..." How can you possibly be interested in watching the match now?! You're bringing up the Demonic Forest, the Holy Spirit Cult, Limit Douluo, and Immortal Herb —my friends and I are completely stunned!
