Identity
Shrek was initially known on the Douluo Continent as Shrek Academy, the continent’s foremost academy and a force whose alumni were spread throughout society. The academy was believed to be inseparable from the world itself, with the concept of Shrek designated as the world’s center by Tang. 42 232
Tingyun later identifies Shrek as an unprecedented cosmic disaster: green monsters with two head tentacles that destroy civilizations, assimilate living beings, and spread from world to world. Its ultimate origin remains unknown. 318
Characteristics

- Can continue multiplying even after being reduced to dust or fragments. 207 335
- Higher-ranking members retain intelligence, speech, belief, Martial Souls, and organized combat formations. 274 296

- An insect swarm associated with Shrek continued multiplying after an Abyss layer and its inhabitants were crushed into powder. 207
- Fragments of planet-scale Shrek monsters remained active after being shattered by powerful attacks. 335
- Shrek forces supported by the Shrek Small God Realm can rapidly recover from injuries unless destroyed in a single blow. 295

Elite Shrek members wield powerful Martial Souls despite Martial Souls having disappeared from Azure Blue Star after Path energy replaced Soul Power.
- Shrek troops form seven-person units modeled after the Shrek Seven Monsters. 296

History
Shrek Academy and Abyssal Control
On the Douluo Continent, Shrek Academy held the title of the continent’s number one academy. Its Outer Courtyard and Inner Courtyard were separate, with the Inner Courtyard described as its true core. 42 47
The Abyssal Sage King later used the possessed Long Yeyue to influence Shrek Academy from within. He intended to use the academy as the Abyss Plane’s base for invading the Douluo Plane, while publicly justifying his actions as being “for Shrek.” 61 84 151
Shrek’s weakened finances forced it to recruit early and enroll one hundred Work-Study Students, who paid full tuition and worked to cover their living expenses. 112 113 117
Destruction of the Original Academy
After Herta departed for the Star Luo Continent, Qian Gu Dongfeng launched a Twelfth Grade Fixed Soul Guided Cannonball at Shrek Academy. The Abyssal Sage King intercepted a second cannonball while inhabiting Long Yeyue, but the resulting destruction devastated the academy and killed numerous teachers and students. 153
A falling section of Herta Space Station then threatened the ruins. The Blue Silver Emperor absorbed A Yin and the remains of Shrek Academy, while Yun Ming accepted that the academy would not be revived. 155
Shrek’s destruction was later attributed to the self-sacrificing attacks of Chen Xinjie and Qian Gu Dongfeng, who used God-Slaying-level weapons against the Abyss-controlled academy. 225
Creation of the Shrek God Realm
Tang sensed the spirit of Shrek within the Crimson Mother and chose to restore and expand it rather than let the concept disappear. 232
By infusing the Crimson Mother with Shrek’s power and his own bloodline, Tang transformed her into the Shrek Mother. The Crimson Realm became the Shrek God Realm, a force stated to possess more than ten thousand Level 1 Gods, over one hundred God Kings, and the Shrek Mother and Shrek Child beyond the God King level. 238
Tang later scattered Shrek forces into different worlds, intending to assimilate those worlds into Shrek before Yao Lan could oppose them. 306
Cosmic Expansion
Shrek invaded the Saint Demon Continent, where its green monsters overwhelmed human and demon forces and converted casualties into new Shrek. 271 272 274
Tang Wulin’s Shrek Small God Realm became a major forward base, supplying its forces with recovery and reinforcement during battle against the Xianzhou Alliance. 294 295
The Xianzhou Alliance eventually identified Shrek as a universe-wide threat and began an endless campaign to eliminate every Shrek Abomination. 268 291 318
Return to Azure Blue Star
A green meteor struck the ruins of Shrek Academy and raised a new green academy whose buildings towered into the clouds. Its influence transformed Herta City residents into Shrek’s obedient “students.” 325
The Interstellar Peace Corporation destroyed this new academy with a Space-Based Kinetic Energy Weapon, though Shrek’s residual influence continued turning people into Green Monsters. 327
