Tang Wuling looked toward Cheng Duoyi, who nodded and said, "Since Teacher Wu is calling for you, he must have something to ask. Let's go, we'll go together."

"Alright." Tang Wuling let out a sigh of relief.

Gu Yue spoke up at this moment, "I will go with you all as well."

Cheng Duoyi said, "Fine, then we go together."

"Right, Xie Xie, Yun Xiao. You two should come along too."

Xie Xie said in surprise, "Me? Sure, then let's go together."

Seeing this, Yun Xiao followed along as well.

Thus, the five of them, led by Cheng Duoyi, followed Wu Changkong toward the faculty office; naturally, Leng Xue'er followed behind them.

Walking into the office, Wu Changkong sat on a stool and looked at the five of them with some surprise: "Why did you four follow along as well?"

Cheng Duoyi said, "She might not be able to accurately answer the questions you wish to ask, Teacher Wu."

Wu Changkong asked curiously, "How did you know what I wanted to ask?"

"Ling'er's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to break through this quickly. It is nothing more than asking if she has twin martial souls, or if the Blue Silver Grass has undergone a mutation," Cheng Duoyi said.

Wu Changkong nodded and glanced at Leng Xue'er, understanding in his heart that they hadn't taught Cheng Duoyi nothing at all.

Wu Changkong asked, "Since that is the case, would it be convenient to speak in detail about Tang Wuling's situation?"

Tang Wuling looked toward Cheng Duoyi.

Cheng Duoyi nodded at her.

He was signaling for her to speak for herself.

Tang Wuling took a deep breath and said, "Teacher Wu, my Innate Soul Power was only level three. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to break through to level eighteen, but when I stay by Brother Cheng Duoyi's side, my cultivation speed is much faster than usual."

Xie Xie and Yun Xiao exchanged a glance, both very surprised.

Xie Xie thought: I stay by Brother Cheng's side, and my cultivation speed also increases. Could it be that Brother Cheng's martial soul is very special? No, I must hold onto this golden thigh tightly!

Yun Xiao thought: Brother Cheng let me come along; this is his recognition of me. I must not drop the ball in the future!

Gu Yue was also somewhat surprised, but upon sensing the Golden Dragon King bloodline within Tang Wuling, she fell into deep thought.

"Innate Soul Power level three?" Wu Changkong looked at Cheng Duoyi in surprise: "Breaking through from level three to level eighteen in three years, what is going on? Could it be that your martial soul has an additional amplification effect on a soul master's cultivation?"

Cheng Duoyi nodded and said, "Yes and no. My martial soul is very special; it has an amplification effect on dragon-type martial souls, which includes cultivation speed. Ling'er should have dragon bloodline within her, which is why her cultivation speed accelerates when she stays by my side."

"Right, Xie Xie?"

Xie Xie let out an "ah," discovering that Wu Changkong and the others were looking at him.

Xie Xie hurriedly said, "What Brother Cheng says is true. When I stay by Brother Cheng's side without meditating, my soul power increases as fast as it does during meditation. If I do meditate, the speed is much faster than usual."

"Strange." Wu Changkong was even more puzzled: "It's not strange that you have dragon bloodline, but how could a Light Dragon Dagger martial soul and a Blue Silver Grass martial soul have dragon bloodline?"

Regarding this point, Xie Xie and Yun Xiao were also very curious.

"I don't know either." Cheng Duoyi shook his head: "Perhaps her ancestors had dragon-type soul masters."

Wu Changkong looked at Cheng Duoyi, his eyes filled with suspicion.

He always felt that Cheng Duoyi was not telling the whole truth.

But he did not press further; after all, everyone had their own secrets.

"Since your martial soul is so special, why not go to Shrek Academy?" Wu Changkong asked: "With your talent, you could absolutely enter Shrek Academy to study directly."

In Wu Changkong's eyes, with a martial soul like Cheng Duoyi's, he would be accepted by Shrek Academy one hundred percent if he just explained it.

Xie Xie and Yun Xiao were both shocked when they heard this.

Xie Xie looked at Wu Changkong in shock and said, "Teacher Wu, are you talking about the number one academy in the world, Shrek Academy? My Brother Cheng could be directly accepted by Shrek Academy?"

Yun Xiao did not speak, but his wide eyes made it clear that he was very shocked.

Wu Changkong looked at their expressions and only then felt it was reasonable.

How could Shrek Academy be an optional academy in Cheng Duoyi's eyes? He couldn't possibly be unaware of Shrek Academy's power!

"That's right." Wu Changkong nodded: "Nowadays, the number of soul masters is increasing day by day, and dragon-type martial souls are no longer rare, though they are not common. Yet, there is only one known case of a soul master who can amplify the cultivation speed of dragon-type soul masters. If Cheng Duoyi wants to go to Shrek Academy, Shrek Academy will definitely accept him."

Wu Changkong looked at Cheng Duoyi: "Are you really not considering going to Shrek Academy to study?"

Tang Wuling gripped Cheng Duoyi's hand a bit tightly, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

Cheng Duoyi squeezed Tang Wuling's hand and answered with a smile: "Teacher Wu, I mentioned in class just now that because Ling'er is here, I came here. Moreover, we will not enter Shrek Academy through the back door. In the future, I will take Ling'er and, through our own efforts, pass the entrance exam to Shrek Academy with our heads held high."

Tang Wuling looked up at Cheng Duoyi, thinking to herself: Brother Yi'er, thank you. I will definitely not let down your expectations!

Gu Yue, however, felt somewhat displeased and pinched Cheng Duoyi's right hand.

What do you mean you came here because Ling'er is here?

What do you mean you will take Ling'er to Shrek Academy?

Can't you take me along too?

Besides, you are my husband!

Gu Yue had not expected Tang Wuling to hold such a high position in Cheng Duoyi's heart; she had originally harbored some unconventional ideas, but now she dared not act on them.

Watching the earnest look in Cheng Duoyi's eyes, Wu Changkong could not help but feel a sense of admiration.

Among children these days, very few possessed such backbone as he did.

Furthermore...

He looked at Cheng Duoyi and Tang Wuling, feeling a pang of envy in his heart.

"Not bad, having ambition is a good thing," Wu Changkong nodded and said. "Tang Wuling, cultivate diligently and do not let this hard-won boost go to waste; it is not every day that one encounters such good fortune."

"Teacher Wu, I will work hard," Tang Wuling said firmly.

"Mm." Wu Changkong nodded and looked at Cheng Duoyi. "You brought Xie Xie and Yun Xiao over—are you looking to form your own team?"

If it were any other child, Wu Changkong would not have thought much of it.

But Cheng Duoyi would not have brought the two of them over without reason; naturally, he wanted to demonstrate their relationship with him.

Moreover, he had just stated that Xie Xie would also benefit from the cultivation boost.

Coupled with Cheng Duoyi's desire to get into Shrek Academy through his own efforts, it was obvious that he was assembling a team.

"That's right," Cheng Duoyi said. "Ling'er and Xie Xie can both benefit from my boost, so their breakthrough speeds will be much faster. Gu Yue's strength is beyond doubt, and although Yun Xiao is a bit lacking, I believe that under your guidance, he will certainly find his own path. The five of us will definitely be able to get into Shrek Academy!"

Xie Xie and Yun Xiao looked at Cheng Duoyi with gratitude.

"Brother Cheng, from now on you are my foster father, I..."

"Brother Cheng, from now on I will follow your arrangements one hundred percent, I..."
