Dorm 108, Sharing a Room with Wang Dong? Dragon God Douluo, Mu En! (Please add to your reading list!)
At this point, Dai Yu raised his head and stared intently at Du Weilun:
"Although my Soul Power is currently weak, I possess the foundation of the highest-level Martial Soul.
As long as you give me time, I'll become stronger than anyone else.
Director Du, do you think I'm qualified to enter Class One now?"
Du Weilun hurriedly said:
"Of course you are qualified!"
"If you aren't qualified, then no one is!"
Dai Yu nodded slightly and pointed at Huo Yuhao, who had been waiting for a long time.
"Then, Director Du, he..."
Du Weilun laughed heartily.
"This little brother is qualified too, of course!"
"Both of you can enter Class One!"
Du Weilun paused, then couldn't help asking:
"Student Dai Yu, your talent is outstanding—not just within the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, but across the entire Douluo Continent and Sun Moon Continent.
You're absolutely one of the best.
What I want to ask is, Student Dai Yu, what is your relationship with the current White Tiger Duke?"
In Du Weilun's view,
Dai Yu had been able to awaken his Martial Soul for a second time.
He had transformed from a good-for-nothing into a genius.
His bloodline certainly couldn't be ordinary.
Perhaps he was related to the White Tiger Duke.
As the Director of Academic Affairs at Shrek Outer Court, Du Weilun knew the various major forces on the continent like the back of his hand.
The inherited Martial Soul of the White Tiger Duke's line was the Evil Eye White Tiger. Although mutations did occur, most of them were mutations in a negative direction.
A mutated white tiger with the Light Attribute like this, one that cultivated so quickly, was exceedingly rare.
And then there was that sensitive surname and place of origin...
He couldn't help but think of the grievances between certain powerful clans.
Facing Du Weilun's scrutinizing gaze, Dai Yu remained calm.
He said with a faint smile:
"Director Du, does Shrek Academy investigate family backgrounds when admitting students?
I'm merely a commoner from the territory of the Duke's Mansion. As for my relationship with the Duke's Mansion...
You can understand it as having no relationship whatsoever—or even being sworn enemies."
Dai Yu spoke the final four words very softly, but the chill in his tone still made Du Weilun feel a trace of surprise.
Sworn enemies?
Interesting.
It seemed that this was another little fellow with a story.
Du Weilun gave Dai Yu a long look and did not continue questioning him.
The reason Shrek Academy had stood firm for ten thousand years was precisely because of its principle of "accepting only monsters and not asking about one's origins."
Whether one was a member of the imperial family, an ordinary commoner, or an avenger bearing a blood feud,
once they entered Shrek, they became a student of Shrek.
Not to mention,
Dai Yu's talent was so heaven-defying.
He could practically be called a Level 99 Limit Douluo in the making!
Perhaps Mu En would take a liking to him and accept him as a disciple!
The future of Shrek Academy was secured!
Zhang Lexuan had truly given him a pleasant surprise!
"All right, I won't ask."
Du Weilun picked up the seal and stamped it heavily on both of their forms.
He then took two badges and two keys from the drawer and pushed them in front of the two youths.
"These are your school badges and dormitory keys.
Since you were specially recruited, your tuition fees are waived.
The dormitory building is behind the teaching building. The white one is it.
Dai Yu, you're in Dorm 108.
Huo Yuhao, you're in Dorm 109."
At this point, Du Weilun seemed to remember something. With a knowing smile, he added:
"Oh, right. The freshman dormitories are double rooms.
I hope you can get along well with your future roommates.
After all, at Shrek, roommates are often your most reliable comrades in the future... though of course, they may also be the most troublesome nuisance."
"Thank you, Director Du."
Dai Yu took the key and glanced at the number on it.
108.
He would be sharing a room with Wang Dong?
Excellent.
As long as he stayed with Wang Dong,
he would always find an opportunity to make her bound to the Background Suppression System.
That way, he could reap some benefits.
Dai Yu handed Huo Yuhao's share to him, then turned and walked toward the door.
"Yuhao, let's go."
"Huh?
Oh!
Thank you, Director Du!"
Huo Yuhao hurriedly bowed to Du Weilun, grabbed the key and school badge, and scampered after Dai Yu.
Watching the two youths leave, Du Weilun removed his glasses and rubbed his brow. A playful curve tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"One has a Body Martial Soul with a Mental Attribute. His Soul Power is weak, but his Soul Skill is unusual.
The other has a Martial Soul with Dual Extreme Attributes. His talent is exceptional, yet he's filled with hostility toward his family.
And then there's Lexuan's recommendation...
This year's Freshman Class One is bound to be lively."
"I need to find Mu En and explain the situation."
"If Mu En accepts this Dai Yu as his disciple, perhaps Dai Yu can become one of Shrek's pillars while Mu En is still alive.
He might even become a future Sea God Pavilion Master!"
After leaving the Academic Affairs Office building,
Huo Yuhao was filled with excitement.
"Yu Ge, we really got in!
And without even taking an entrance exam!
That Director Du looked so serious. He scared me half to death just now."
"That was enough to scare you?"
Dai Yu chuckled.
"The frightening part is still to come.
Yuhao, remember what I told you before.
At Shrek, strength is everything.
When we get to the dormitory, no matter who you meet or what happens, don't back down.
If anyone dares provoke you, use your Spiritual Detection together with the combat techniques I taught you and beat them back hard!"
"Huh?
F-fight?"
Huo Yuhao froze for a moment and stammered:
"But... don't the school rules prohibit private fights?"
"That's a rule made for the weak."
Dai Yu strode toward the dormitory building, his voice drifting into Huo Yuhao's ears with the breeze:
"For the strong, rules can be trampled beneath their feet."
The two passed through a shady path and soon arrived beneath the freshman dormitory building.
An old man who looked as though he were nearing the end of his life sat at the entrance.
He wore gray cloth robes, his face covered in wrinkles. His eyelids drooped as if he had already fallen asleep.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell over him, making him look like a statue on the verge of weathering away, utterly devoid of vitality.
Most of the passing students ignored him. Some even looked disgusted as they hurried past.
However, the instant Dai Yu saw the old man, his footsteps suddenly halted.
His originally casual gaze instantly turned incomparably solemn.
Dragon God Douluo, Mu En!
Sea God Pavilion Master!
One of the strongest people on the Douluo Continent today, a Level 99 Limit Douluo!
This was Shrek's true stabilizing pillar!
He was also the greatest boss the Background Suppression System could currently allow him to approach!
If he could make his presence known before this old man, or cause him some degree of "shock," then the reward...
It would definitely be unimaginably generous!
"Yu Ge, what's wrong?"
Seeing Dai Yu suddenly stop, Huo Yuhao asked doubtfully. Following Dai Yu's gaze, he looked toward the old man.
"That old grandpa... he looks so pitiful. Should we..."
"Shh."
Dai Yu raised a finger and gestured for silence.
Then, under Huo Yuhao's astonished gaze, Dai Yu strode over to the old man. Unlike the other students, he did not rush straight into the dormitory building.
"Elder, greetings.
We're newly enrolled students. May I ask if freshman registration is done here?"
