He's Merely of Mediocre Talent!

Ahead of Chen Feng and his group, a long line stretched out. At this moment, Chen Feng caught sight of Ning Rongrong once again.

Ning Rongrong was positioned in the middle of the queue, still a considerable distance from Chen Feng.

Just then, Ning Rongrong turned her head and caught a glimpse of Chen Feng by chance. She froze instantly.

"Chen Feng."

"How did this piece of trash end up at Shrek Academy?"

After casting a glance at Chen Feng, Ning Rongrong was struck with immense shock. She touched her own face, and a surge of fury instantly flooded her heart.

She sneered immediately, "Hmph, you've come at the perfect time. I want to see how you, a piece of trash, intend to pass the Shrek Academy test!"

Touching her face again, she muttered to herself, "That slap you gave me—I will make you pay it back tenfold!"

In the distance, Dai Mubai and Tang San both spotted Chen Feng standing further back. They were secretly startled, never expecting that Chen Feng would actually come to Shrek Academy as well.

Applicants were processed one after another, though the vast majority were eliminated.

Finally, it was Ning Rongrong's turn.

Ning Rongrong approached the old man. Upon seeing her martial soul and spirit power, the old man was secretly surprised, then frowned slightly.

"May I ask, have I passed the preliminary test?" Ning Rongrong's voice was soft and melodious; it lacked a bit of heroic spirit, but it sounded so delicate that it made one feel a sense of softness.

The surprise on the old man's face gradually faded, and he frowned again. "Does your family know you've come here?"

Ning Rongrong did not answer his question directly, merely smiling. "They say education should be provided without discrimination. As long as I meet the academy's requirements, you have no reason not to accept me."

The old man seemed to hesitate for a moment before waving at Dai Mubai. "Take her inside."

Ning Rongrong walked in and stood at the entrance of Shrek Academy.

Her gaze immediately shifted toward Chen Feng and Kamisato. As she looked at them, her eyes grew cold, and she scoffed inwardly, Hmph, you piece of trash, I want to see what kind of confidence you have to dare and register at Shrek Academy!

Next, it was Tang San and Xiao Wu's turn.

The old man first squeezed Xiao Wu's hand, nodded, and said, "Your age is appropriate." When his hand moved to Tang San's, the previous sound of surprise escaped him once more.

The old man seemed unconvinced and squeezed Tang San's hand a few more times, his expression turning peculiar.

He looked up at Tang San and asked, "Have you practiced some kind of spirit skill with your hands?"

The reason he squeezed the applicants' hands was to identify their true age through the bone structure of their palms; this could not be faked. Yet, Tang San's hand felt extremely supple, making it impossible to clearly discern the state of his bones.

Tang San felt a jolt in his heart, nodded, and said, "Yes."

The old man frowned. "Lift your lower leg."

Tang San followed instructions, lifting his leg and placing it on the table. The old man squeezed his calf through his trousers a few times, causing Tang San to feel a wave of numbness.

The old man nodded at him. "Your muscle development is good. Your bone age is appropriate. Very well, release both of your martial souls."

Tang San and Xiao Wu exchanged a glance and simultaneously channeled the spirit power within their bodies.

Blue and red lights rose simultaneously, and century-old spirit rings swirled upward.

Rabbit ears sprouted, white, fluffy fur appeared on Xiao Wu's hands, and her figure became more slender. Her Jade Rabbit martial soul was possessed.

From Tang San's palm grew the most ordinary Blue Silver Grass, which rapidly transformed into a vine as the effects of the spirit ring were infused.

The old man gave Xiao Wu only a casual glance before his eyes fell upon Tang San. "It's actually Blue Silver Grass. Can Blue Silver Grass really cultivate this quickly?"

Tang San smiled slightly. "Teacher, don't you only accept monsters here? Does this count as me being a monster?"

A rare smile appeared on the old man's face. "Indeed, a little monster. Mubai, take them inside."

"Yes." Dai Mubai stepped forward and flashed a smile at Tang San.

Following them was a girl in black; she was very curvaceous and looked extremely beautiful.

She passed the test with ease. Standing in the back, Chen Feng watched as the girl released her Hell Spirit Cat martial soul, and he was certain that she was Zhu Zhuqing.

However, Chen Feng had no interest in them.

Finally, it was Chen Feng and Kamisato's turn.

The two arrived before the old man. He tested their bone age and nodded slightly. "Your ages are appropriate. Release your martial souls!"

At this moment, Dai Mubai and Tang San were staring fixedly at Chen Feng. Having both been defeated by him, they were very concerned about his status.

Ning Rongrong stood behind them, her face cold. "He is nothing but a piece of trash; he surely won't pass the Shrek Academy test!"

"Trash?" Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Tang San and Dai Mubai both turned back to look at her.

One had to remember that both Dai Mubai and Tang San had been personally defeated by Chen Feng just yesterday. If Chen Feng was trash, then what did that make them?

"You know him?" Dai Mubai asked, looking at Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong nodded slightly. "Of course I know him. His name is Chen Feng, the grandson of Sword Douluo. However, his aptitude is mediocre. He didn't inherit Sword Grandpa's talent, and his martial soul mutated into nothing more than an iron sword.

He's already twelve, and his spirit power is only at level nineteen. Being so mediocre, he naturally won't pass the Shrek Academy test."

Ning Rongrong spoke incessantly, but the expressions of Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Xiao Wu shifted slightly.

Tang San looked at Ning Rongrong and asked, "Are you sure you haven't mistaken the person?"

Ning Rongrong immediately replied, "Of course not. He grew up with me since we were children. Even if he turned to ash, I would still recognize him!"

At this moment, the expressions of Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Xiao Wu turned somewhat puzzled.

"What's wrong with you all? Could it be that you know him too?" Ning Rongrong asked, looking toward Dai Mubai and Tang San.

The two were just about to answer.

Right at that moment, the voice of the testing teacher suddenly rang out from the doorway.

"How is this possible?"

"In this world, how could there be a little monster like you?"

"The quality of your Martial Soul is actually this powerful, and more importantly, your second Spirit Ring is actually a thousand-year one!!"

At this moment, in front of Chen Feng, a long sword of frost floated in the air.

And on Chen Feng's body, two Spirit Rings appeared, one yellow and one purple, emitting a dazzling light.

At this moment, Ning Rongrong also saw this scene; she was instantly struck with immense shock, freezing in place and taking a few steps back in disbelief.

"No, how is this possible?"

"He was clearly just a piece of trash, how could it be like this?" Ning Rongrong shook her head incessantly, shocked.
