Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin, Enemies on a Narrow Road

"The one-way diameter actually reached 3350 meters, and time within that entire range was completely stopped, lasting four full seconds." Du Weilun nearly bit his own tongue.

Never underestimate these four short seconds—on a battlefield, four seconds is enough to turn the tide of a large-scale battle.

Huo Yuhao possesses a Body Origin Martial Soul, and as everyone knows, Body Origin Martial Souls can undergo a second awakening.

Huo Yuhao instantly became a hot commodity. Yan Shaozhe was very satisfied with his ability—this was far more valuable than some White Tiger Duke's son.

"Thank you, Dean Yan. This is my sister, Huo Yunxue. She wants to apply for the Inner Courtyard." Huo Yuhao pushed Qian Renxue forward in front of the two.

"Oh?" Yan Shaozhe looked Huo Yunxue over and nodded slightly. "Applying for the Inner Courtyard is very difficult. Your younger brother has good talent and was admitted, but our academy holds every applicant to a high standard. Are you prepared?"

Qian Renxue nodded slightly, her tone firm. "No matter what difficulties arise, I will overcome them!"

Shrek Academy had a profound background and led the era with advanced soul master philosophies. The reason Qian Renxue joined Shrek Academy was precisely for these things, and to use the academy's resources to strengthen herself.

Yan Shaozhe nodded, then turned to Du Weilun. "Alright, Weilun, take Huo Yuhao inside. As for Huo Yunxue, she comes with me."

Yan Shaozhe immediately led Qian Renxue into Shrek Academy, while Huo Yuhao agreed on a meeting place with her for the evening before they parted ways.

Entering Shrek Academy, what appeared before Huo Yuhao's eyes were the statues of the First Generation Shrek Seven Devils. Among them were his own ancestors Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, as well as Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Ning Rongrong, and Xiao Wu.

The most eye-catching of them all was Tang San, with his long hair flowing over his shoulders and deep, penetrating eyes. Huo Yuhao locked gazes with Tang San for a moment, then followed Du Weilun's steps.

Du Weilun said, "Yuhao, those are our academy's First Generation Shrek Seven Devils. They shone brilliantly in the All Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament ten thousand years ago. Once you enter the academy, you must take them as your goal!"

Huo Yuhao nodded. "I definitely will."

If he were still ten thousand years in the past, he believed he could have interacted with them.

Huo Yuhao followed Du Weilun to collect two sets of school uniforms, a dormitory key, and a white New Student Badge. After being shown the location of the New Student Dormitory Building, Du Weilun left.

At this point, the new student registration work came to a temporary halt.

Huo Yuhao went to the Public Notice Board and saw his class assignment: New Student Class One. The corner of his eye twitched—fate's guidance, indeed.

The New Student Dormitory Building was easy to distinguish, its all-white architecture standing out prominently.

Huo Yuhao, holding his school uniforms, arrived at the white entrance. An old man sitting there immediately drew his close attention.

The old man was very advanced in years, wearing gray cloth clothes. The wrinkles on his face were so deep they could trap a mosquito. His eyes were half-lidded and yellowish, and he reclined in a chair, squinting comfortably in the warm sunlight.

The Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy, one of the three current Limit Douluo in the world, Dragon God Douluo, Mu En.

The old man's identity was obvious. Huo Yuhao stepped forward and said respectfully, "Hello, Old Grandpa."

Mu En glanced up at him, a flicker of curiosity passing through his eyes, and gave an almost imperceptible nod. "Give me your badge and dormitory key."

Huo Yuhao quickly handed them over. Mu En took them, glanced at them, then returned them to Huo Yuhao. "Dormitory 203 is the third door on the right upstairs. Floors four and above are female dormitories. If you're caught peeping, you'll be expelled immediately."

"Thank you for the reminder, Old Grandpa. Goodbye!" Huo Yuhao bowed to Mu En, then hurried upstairs as instructed.

Mu En watched Huo Yuhao walk away and murmured to himself, "An Eye Martial Soul, time and spirit dual attributes, a Third Soul Ring with a Ten Thousand Year configuration, full-range coverage of 3350 meters... What an interesting little monster. If that guy Du Busi finds out, he'll definitely come knocking to steal him away!"

Not long after, Mu En opened his eyes again and looked toward the Lakeside of Sea God Lake, a hint of shock appearing in his gaze.

At the Lakeside of Sea God Lake, Qian Renxue held the Angel Sacred Sword, with a pair of radiant golden Angel Wings spread behind her. The appearance of the Six Winged Angel Martial Soul drew gasps from everyone present.

Unsurprisingly, Qian Renxue smoothly joined Shrek Academy's Inner Courtyard.

On the other side, Huo Yuhao walked upstairs and unlocked the dormitory door.

The dormitory was very small, covering about ten square meters. Two beds were placed against the wall, and aside from that, there was only a table and an iron cabinet for storing clothes.

Huo Yuhao glanced at the empty dormitory, curious about who his roommate would be. As long as it wasn't someone like Wang Dong, he'd be fine.

He waited in the dormitory until noon, then didn't linger any longer and headed to the canteen for lunch.

The canteen charged money for meals. Aside from the ten Gold Soul Coins registration fee, almost every facility in the academy required payment. Truly worthy of the conman Flender's founding of this academy.

With Qian Renxue, his rich sister, Huo Yuhao naturally didn't lack spending money. He pulled out a large Gold Brick, slapped it on the canteen counter, and directly ordered the most expensive item. The tongs clipped off a piece of the Gold Brick.

Since classes started tomorrow, there was nothing scheduled for the afternoon. Huo Yuhao wandered around the academy for a while, quickly getting a feel for Shrek Academy's layout, then returned to the New Student Dormitory Building.

After greeting Mu En as usual, Huo Yuhao went upstairs.

However, the moment he opened the dormitory door, bloodshot veins appeared in Huo Yuhao's eyes.

His new roommate was a youth with golden shoulder-length hair and double-pupiled eyes. The youth was well-built, about the same height as Huo Yuhao, and was none other than Huo Yuhao's nominal older brother, Dai Huabin.

Enemies on a narrow road!

Dai Huabin naturally noticed Huo Yuhao and looked him up and down. Seeing Huo Yuhao's plain clothes, a hint of contempt crept into his eyes. He crossed his arms, let out a cold snort, and spoke in a commanding tone. "From today on, you're in charge of the dormitory's cleaning."

Huo Yuhao met Dai Huabin's gaze and said coldly, "From now on, I'm living in this dormitory. Get out!"

Dai Huabin was momentarily stunned, then flew into a rage. "Bastard! Are you speaking to me in a commanding tone?!"

"I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine."

Huo Yuhao sidestepped. Dai Huabin's right hand swept out, and the moment his Tiger Claw hit the ground, dust kicked up across the floor.

Since the dormitory hadn't been lived in for a long time, Dai Huabin had spoken to Huo Yuhao in that commanding tone.

Dai Huabin never expected that this unfamiliar kid would dare defy him. Spoiled since childhood, he naturally wanted to teach him a lesson.

"Bastard! I'll make you know my power!" Dai Huabin let out a low Tiger Roar. Two Yellow and one Purple soul rings appeared beneath his feet, and a milky white light sphere shot from his mouth.
