Inside the Dean's Office, Lin Feng sat on the sofa, looking over Long Yeyue's profile.

Level ninety-nine, Light and Darkness Limit Douluo.

Looking at the card, the corner of Lin Feng's mouth twitched, and a complicated look flashed through his eyes.

"Why did it give me this thing?"

Lin Feng could not help but complain inwardly.

"Even though she's a Limit Douluo, that personality... is just too absurd."

As a transmigrator who had thoroughly read the Douluo series, Lin Feng had a deep impression of Long Yeyue—not because she was particularly powerful, of course, but because she was simply too good at causing trouble.

The martial world had given her several nicknames—"Slap Douluo," "Runaway Douluo," and "Martyrdom Douluo."

Long Yeyue's reputation throughout Legend of the Dragon King could be said to rank among the very worst. She had stormed the Spirit Pagoda headquarters and slapped Qiangu Dieting, who had been the Spirit Pagoda's head at the time. That slap had certainly felt satisfying, but what about the consequences?

It had nearly caused the two major powers of the time—the Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy—to wage all-out war!

The original novel's depiction of Long Yeyue's love life was practically schizophrenic.

In one version, it said that she had married Bei Xin and that the two were a loving couple. Yet in another version, it said that Chen Xinjie was the only one in her heart, and that she had never married for his sake, remaining chaste throughout her life.

Such contradictory settings not only left readers utterly confused, but also made Long Yeyue seem unbearably melodramatic and unreasonable.

What disgusted Lin Feng even more was how she had acted when Shrek Academy suffered its great calamity.

When those two Rank Twelve fixed soul-guided artillery shells came roaring in, what had she done as one of the academy's foremost combatants, as a Limit Douluo who had enjoyed the academy's countless resources?

She ran.

Yes, she had fled in the face of battle.

Although the book's explanation was that she had wanted to preserve the Core Flame, at a moment that concerned life and death, the strongest person had failed to stand at the front and instead run away. There was no way to justify that.

The most outrageous part was the final battle.

When facing the Demon Empress, this Light and Darkness Douluo's performance was even more jaw-dropping.

Watching her old lover Chen Xinjie die in battle, she had not thought about defeating the enemy to avenge her beloved, nor had she thought about protecting the countless living beings behind her. Instead, she had directly chosen to self-destruct for love!

She had self-destructed while holding her lover's corpse!

That was just ridiculous.

If you had that much explosive power, then go blow up the Demon Empress!

In the end, not only did she fail to inflict any substantial damage on the enemy, she also wasted her earth-shaking cultivation. She was like some love-struck fool born solely for romance, without the slightest sense of responsibility expected of a true powerhouse.

It had to be said that the Douluo Continent novels really seemed to have some sort of bizarre "romance curse."

Almost every generation's central characters ended up entangled in an absurd, worldview-shattering love triangle.

In Douluo One, there had been Yu Xiaogang, Bibi Dong, and Liu Erlong.

One was his own cousin, while the other was the Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden, who endured her feelings only to be defiled, then turned love into hatred. That relationship was so tangled that it could fill an entire book.

In Douluo Two—the current era—

There were Mu En, Long Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui.

In Douluo Three, there were Long Yeyue, Chen Xinjie, and the unlucky Bei Xin.

Once again, it was two men entangled with one woman. Once again, it was that whole "I love you but won't say it," "I married him, but you are in my heart" routine.

It was simply poisonous.

Lin Feng shook his head. If he really had to summon the original version of Long Yeyue, he estimated he would get a splitting headache.

Fortunately, the system seemed to understand exactly what was toxic about this character and had thoughtfully carried out a "purification."

Lin Feng looked at Long Yeyue's profile again. It had removed her emotional memories connected to Chen Xinjie, removed the fleeing-in-battle buff, and removed the love-brained martyrdom buff.

"Phew..."

Mu En let out a long breath, his cloudy old eyes filled with complicated emotions.

He had never expected that some random receptionist at this Shrek Academy, some so-called "messenger," would actually be an existence on the same level as himself!

And...

Mu En keenly sensed that Bei Xin, who stood before him, was brimming with vitality and blood energy. He was clearly at his peak.

And what about himself?

His spine was shattered, poison had seeped into his marrow, and he could only remain paralyzed in a wheelchair, unable to use more than a fraction of his strength.

Such a powerful existence... was actually... not the one in charge of this academy?

The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became!

Since even a Limit Douluo like Bei Xin had to obey someone and respectfully address that person as "Dean"...

Just how powerful was the unseen Dean Lin Feng?

Could he be... a god?

Mu En's heart sank heavily.

It seemed that this Shrek Academy floating in the sky was even stronger and more unfathomable than he had imagined!

"Fortunately..."

Mu En glanced at Elder Lin beside him, and a powerful sense of relief rose in his heart.

Fortunately, because of his intervention, everything had remained relatively normal.

If they had truly fought just now...

Mu En rapidly simulated the battle in his mind.

Bei Xin alone could have steadily held him back, perhaps even defeated him.

And aside from Bei Xin, there were clearly other powerhouses within this academy.

They could not forget that Yan Shaozhe was a Rank Ninety-Five Super Douluo with the top-tier Radiant Phoenix martial soul. Whoever had defeated him had to be at least a Title Douluo.

Moreover, judging by Bei Bei's attitude, he clearly did not know the Bei Xin standing before them.

What did that mean?

It meant that someone else had defeated Yan Shaozhe!

In other words, this academy possessed at least two top-tier combatants above the level of a Title Douluo! Perhaps even more!

And then there was the unfathomable Lin Feng...

If a conflict broke out, he would likely perish here as well.

"Brother Bei Xin, you've truly hidden your strength well."

Mu En clasped his hands, his tone becoming much more courteous than before.

"Let's go."

Bei Xin said nothing more and turned to continue leading the way.

"Zhang Yang should already be waiting."

Before long, Bei Xin brought the three of them into the Confinement Room, where they met Zhang Yang.

"Zhang Yang."

Bei Xin led Mu En's group forward and called out calmly.

"Elder Bei."

"Mm."

Bei Xin nodded and pointed to Mu En and the others behind him.

"These are guests from another Shrek Academy. They've come to ransom someone."

"Although we haven't reached an agreement yet, you can take them to see the Confinement Room first."

"Yes."

Zhang Yang did not waste any words. He directly opened the Confinement Room's door.

Mu En could sense that this man named Zhang Yang was absolutely a Title Douluo as well. Moreover... his aura was exceedingly formidable. Could he be the one who had defeated Yan Shaozhe?

He looked like a guard. Did even a mere guard possess the strength of a Title Douluo?

This school's depths ran even deeper than he had imagined.

"Please."

Zhang Yang made an inviting gesture, his face expressionless.

Mu En composed himself and signaled for Bei Bei to push him inside.

Elder Lin followed closely behind. At this moment, none of the arrogance she had displayed upon arriving remained. With her head lowered, even her steps had become cautious.

"Elder Mu?" *3

The instant Mu En entered the Confinement Room, three voices rang out in unison.
