Mu En Decided to Take Another Approach

The Sea God Pavilion fell silent again.

Mu En initially had the idea of taking on apprentices to strengthen the bond between Dai Huabin and Shrek.

But now, Mu En himself has extinguished the idea of taking on apprentices.

What should I teach my apprentices?

The cultivation path of the Ultimate Ice, Xue Qingyao, who is beside Dai Huabin, is from a hidden family, and the hidden family behind Xue Qingyao must have a cultivation system.

As for the "Reign Over the World" combat skill?

Mu En gave a wry smile.

He had spent most of his life honing his "Reign Over the World" skills, and originally planned to guide Dai Huabin slowly for at least a year and a half to get him started.

As a result, this kid sat there for an hour and directly figured out his own way.

"Defy Heaven and Slay Gods, Only I Am Supreme."

Mu En silently repeated those eight words to himself, then shook his head.

That's outrageous.

But that will was so real that even he felt a sense of pressure.

I can't teach it.

Mu En acknowledged this fact. There was simply too little he could offer Dai Huabin.

Furthermore, people like Dai Huabin cannot be cunningly bound to Shrek Academy.

That leaves only one other way: to keep this person within the Shrek Academy's system in another way.

Mu En's thoughts drifted away.

The girls around Dai Huabin were all outstanding.

Not to mention his fiancée Zhu Lu, the two of them have Martial Soul Fusion Skill, making them inseparable. As for Xue Qingyao, she is Ultimate Ice Soul Emperor at level 65, and the hidden family behind her is unfathomable.

In addition to Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Cui Yajie from the Outer Academy, and Ning Tian from the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect...

Mu En rubbed his temples.

However, Ma Xiaotao is a good person. The hidden dangers of the Evil Fire Phoenix will have to be resolved sooner or later. Yan Shaozhe suggested that Dai Huabin use Ultimate Ice to suppress the Evil Fire. If this path is successful, Ma Xiaotao will inevitably have a deeper connection with Dai Huabin.

Mu En suddenly thought of someone else!

But... sigh...

"Perhaps Bei Bei and Lexuan are truly not meant to be."

Mu En sighed and muttered to himself.

Forget it, these things can't be rushed.

Sea God Island, Ma Xiaotao walked ahead, taking large strides, the hem of her dark red outfit swaying slightly in the wind. Dai Huabin followed half a step behind, the two walking along the bamboo path they had come from towards the Outer Academy.

After walking for about three minutes, Ma Xiaotao suddenly stopped and turned around.

"Did you just learn Mu En's ' Reign Over the World in the Sea God Pavilion?"

Dai Huabin didn't rush to answer, but glanced at her.

Ma Xiaotao pouted:

"Stop pretending. I sensed it while I was waiting for you outside. That aura was very similar to Mu En's Reign Over the World, but not exactly the same, and even more..."

She thought for a moment, but couldn't find the right words.

"Even more arrogant."

Dai Huabin smiled and said, "Yes, Mu En gave me a few pointers, and after thinking about it for a while, I figured it out."

Ma Xiaotao was stunned, utterly surprised.

"After a moment of contemplation?"

"Hmm," Dai Huabin replied.

Ma Xiaotao was speechless. How long had it been?

Mu En's "Reign Over the World" style is something many people in the Inner Academy aspire to emulate.

Mu En's direct disciple, who was also her teacher, along with Dean Xian Lin'er of the Soul Guidance Department, had followed Mu En for many years, yet neither of them had been able to comprehend it.

Dai Huabin actually said that he figured it out after thinking about it for a while.

"Aren't you... going a bit too far?"

Ma Xiaotao's tone was somewhat complicated, and full of sourness.

Dai Huabin chuckled lightly, "Just lucky."

Looking at his calm demeanor, Ma Xiaotao suddenly became a little annoyed. "You're just too modest, your modesty is a bit pretentious."

"This isn't called modesty, this is called being realistic," Dai Huabin said.

"Fine, fine, whatever you want."

Ma Xiaotao rolled her eyes, turned around again, and continued walking forward.

After taking a few steps, I couldn't help but turn back.

"But honestly, your talent is truly extraordinary. I've never seen anyone with stronger talent than you."

"You flatter me, senior."

"Don't even try," Ma Xiaotao snorted. "If you run into trouble in the Inner Academy in the future, just tell me, and I'll protect you."

She's said that twice today.

Dai Huabin did not refuse and nodded.

Ma Xiaotao didn't really understand why she cared so much about a second-year junior.

Perhaps it was because the Ultimate Ice was crucial to her Evil Fire, or perhaps it was because this person possessed an aura that made people feel "following him wouldn't be a mistake."

Anyway, Yan Shaozhe said, the better we get to know them.

The two walked out of Sea God Island and across Sea God Lake. Ma Xiaotao escorted Dai Huabin all the way to the dormitory building of the Outer Academy before stopping.

"We've arrived. I'm heading back. I'll have Xixi inform you of the time for the joint practice session tomorrow."

"Good."

Ma Xiaotao waved her hand, turned around and took two steps, then turned back and tossed out a sentence:

"By the way, I won't tell anyone about your enlightenment."

Thanks.

"But I will tell my teacher."

Ma Xiaotao didn't give Dai Huabin a chance to refute her and strode away.

Dai Huabin stood at the entrance of the dormitory building, watching her figure disappear around the corner, and shook his head.

Ma Xiaotao's personality is indeed just like that described in the original novel: outspoken and unable to keep a secret.

Tell her teacher... that's the same as telling Cai Mei'er that Cai Mei'er is Yan Shaozhe's wife, which means the entire upper echelons of the Outer Academy will know.

Oh well, it was bound to happen sooner or later.

He pushed open the dormitory door and went inside.

Zhu Lu sat quietly on the edge of the bed, waiting. She immediately stood up when she heard the door open.

"You're back."

"Um."

Dai Huabin closed the door and sat down next to her.

Zhu Lu didn't ask any more questions, but simply waited quietly. This was her habit; Dai Huabin would speak when he wanted to.

"Mu En pointed out the path to the integration of beliefs."

Dai Huabin briefly summarized what happened Sea God Pavilion, including the core of "Reign Over the World" mentioned by Mu En, as well as the combat technique he himself comprehended in an hour.

Zhu Lu listened and remained silent for a few seconds.

What do you call it?

"Defy Heaven and Slay Gods, Only I Am Supreme."

Zhu Lu pursed her lips, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"That name sounds a lot like yours."

Dai Huabin raised an eyebrow. "How is it similar?"

"Overbearing," Zhu Lu added in a low voice, "But it's definitely a name you would choose."

Dai Huabin smiled. He leaned against the headboard and reached out to ruffle Zhu Lu's hair. Zhu Lu let his hand rest on her head.

"There's one more thing." Dai Huabin paused, "Just now, during that moment of enlightenment in the Sea God Pavilion, my Soul Power broke through."

Zhu Lu tilted her head slightly, her tone questioning.

"Level 45 peak directly jumped to level 47."

Zhu Lu was genuinely surprised this time. She'd jumped almost two levels in one go?

"At the moment of enlightenment, faith and spiritual power completely merged, driving the circulation of Soul Power. The bottleneck shattered just like that."

Dai Huabin himself was somewhat surprised, but upon reflection, it made sense. The condensation of belief itself was a baptism of the Spiritual Sea, and the qualitative change in spiritual power also led to a significant improvement in the smoothness of the Soul Power circuit.
