As the system's voice fell silent.

Clatter...

Millions upon tens of millions of Gold Soul Coins appeared before Gu Yuan.

They piled directly into a mountain of gold.

At the peak of the golden mountain, a gold card drifted down lightly.

The Ice Dragon King was stunned. "Da Gu, did you rob some country's treasury?"

"Something like that." Gu Yuan picked up the gold card and looked at it. There were a full 150 million Gold Soul Coins on the account.

Unfortunately, it was a registered gold card.

Only Yan Shaozhe, the dean of Shrek Academy himself, could use it.

Without hesitation, Gu Yuan said, "System, exchange this gold card."

[Ding, exchange successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Secret of the Body collected in the secret chamber of Du Busi, sect master of the Body Sect.]

"So it was this. Too bad I don't have a Body Martial Soul, though I can still study it."

Gu Yuan shook his head with little interest. After recording the Secret of the Body onto thin ice, he handed the scroll containing it to the Ice Dragon King for study.

Holding the thin ice inscribed with the Secret of the Body, Gu Yuan silently recited in his heart, System, exchange the Secret of the Body.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one hundred gold coins from Xiao Se's storage ring in the Battle Through the Heavens World.]

"Only a hundred gold coins? It seemed the Secret of the Body really wasn't worth much in the Battle Through the Heavens World. Or rather, it was completely worthless."

"System, continue the exchange."

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one Blood Lotus Essence from the Battle Through the Heavens World.]

"Wasn't this what Xiao Yan used to refine Blood Lotus Pills? Too bad it was useless to me. System, continue the exchange."

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the Xuan-rank high-tier battle skill Eight Extremities Collapse from Xiao Yan's storage ring in the Battle Through the Heavens World.]

"Oh? It was actually this. Not bad, not bad. I finally got something good."

Eight Extremities Collapse was a Xuan-rank high-tier close-combat battle skill. One punch contained eight layers of hidden force, and its power rivaled Earth-rank battle skills. The hidden force acted within the body, making it Xiao Yan's ultimate show-off technique for fighting above his level in the early stages.

Gu Yuan already possessed a powerful close-range soul skill like the Ice Emperor Dragon Claw.

If he combined it with the eight layers of hidden force from Eight Extremities Collapse, its power would definitely be terrifying.

Most importantly, unlike Mysterious Ice Dragon Soar, this battle skill had certain cultivation restrictions.

As long as one's physique was strong enough, it could be used.

For Gu Yuan, who was about to obtain three ferocious beast soul bones, it could not have been more suitable.

The Ice Dragon King was clearly extremely interested in Eight Extremities Collapse as well.

Once Gu Yuan translated it, she took the copy and began reading it impatiently.

Naturally, she was greatly satisfied with the result.

With six exchange opportunities, Gu Yuan had traded for the Golden Dragon-Nurturing Fruit and Eight Extremities Collapse.

This made the Ice Dragon King, Snow Empress, and the others look forward even more to what other good things Gu Yuan might exchange for.

Meanwhile, the Body Sect and Shrek Academy had both exploded into an uproar.

The Body Sect had lost the Secret of the Body, the sect's most important inheritance.

Through that registered gold card, they learned it belonged to Yan Shaozhe and was connected to Shrek Academy. Du Busi, the Body Sect's master, immediately led his men toward Shrek.

Although Shrek Academy had obtained a 70,000-Year Titan Snow Ape Right Arm Bone, it was nowhere near enough to make up for the nearly 200 million Gold Soul Coins they had lost.

Even after deducting the value of that 70,000-Year Titan Snow Ape Right Arm Bone, they had still lost at least 150 million Gold Soul Coins.

One had to know that this was wealth accumulated by the Spirit Department over several years, perhaps even more than a decade.

It was enough to buy three or four right arm bones of quality no weaker than the Titan Snow Ape's.

It pained Yan Shaozhe, the dean, so much that he was nearly brought to tears.

Although Gu Yuan had some guesses about what was about to happen between these two major forces, he could not be bothered to care.

It would be best if Du Busi killed those Shrek higher-ups.

That would save Gu Yuan a great deal of trouble in the future.

Putting away Eight Extremities Collapse, Gu Yuan took out the Swift Ice Bird egg the Ice Bear King had given him.

The bird egg was about the same size as a chicken egg. Though it was an ice-attribute bird egg, it remained at room temperature and was fragile. At most, it was only slightly larger than a chicken egg.

Perhaps that was one reason Swift Ice Birds had nearly gone extinct.

"System, exchange this Swift Ice Bird egg."

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the egg of Oscar, the Food God!]

Gu Yuan: "..."

The egg of Oscar, the Food God—was it food created by Oscar, or an egg in the literal sense?

Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy.

Inside Fan Yu's private office, reserved for core teachers of the Spirit Guidance Department.

Fan Yu sat behind his desk, furiously organizing research materials on Soul Tools!

Fan Yu was angry today. Extremely, incredibly angry.

Because his prized disciple, He Caitou, had not come to the laboratory to study Soul Tools for several days.

After asking around, he learned that the boy had gone to a brothel in Shrek City three days ago.

He had yet to return.

He had even forgotten yesterday's school registration.

What was more, Outer Court students had recognized him and given him the nickname "He the Brothel-Goer."

As a result, Fan Yu had lost all face in the Spirit Guidance Department. Quite a few colleagues mocked him for taking in a brothel-going disciple.

"Caitou, have you reached puberty already? Or have you chosen to fall into depravity and completely given up your chance to reclaim that position..."

A trace of helplessness and concern flashed through Fan Yu's eyes.

Just then, a knock sounded outside the office. "Teacher Fan Yu, I've brought Senior He Caitou over."

"Let him in," Fan Yu said flatly.

As soon as he spoke, the office door was pushed open, and a hulking man nearly two meters tall walked in. His skin was pitch-black, and not a blade of grass grew atop his head.

It was none other than Oscar, who had been "reborn" as He Caitou.

His face was glowing, and his eyes were filled with satisfaction.

The past few days had simply been too enjoyable.

He had directly vented some of the pent-up frustration he had accumulated over tens of thousands of years.

Most importantly, although this body was a little ugly, it was exceptionally strong.

And like him, it was a food-type martial soul.

Relying on the body's strength and his martial soul's support,

he had fought fiercely in the brothel for three days and three nights before finally showing signs of fatigue.

Seeing his disciple in such a state, the last trace of hope in Fan Yu's heart vanished completely, and his expression instantly darkened.

He forcefully suppressed his anger and pointed to the chair before his desk. "Sit."

Oscar did not stand on ceremony. Smacking his lips, he stepped forward and prepared to sit.

Although the man before him was now his teacher,

Oscar, relying on his status as the Food God, did not take him seriously at all.

Just as his butt was about to touch the chair,

suddenly,

a sharp pain struck his crotch.

It was as if the yolk inside an egg had been forcibly dug out, only for a duck egg several times larger to be stuffed inside.

Unable to endure it, Oscar screamed, "Ah..."

The sudden pain caught Oscar completely off guard and gave Fan Yu a huge fright as well.

Under the agonizing pain, Oscar dropped down even harder.

"Ah..."

Another incomparably shrill scream rang out.

With a crack, the duck egg shattered.

After that day,

a rumor spread through Shrek Academy that a certain teacher from the Spirit Guidance Department had kicked his disciple's crotch to pieces because the disciple had visited a brothel.
