Yu Xiaogang was stunned: "What? Xiao Wu is a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form?"

Having spent years together, he had never noticed a single anomaly, but since the Martial Soul Hall Holy Son said so, it must be true.

The Shrek Seven Devils all looked at Xiao Wu in disbelief upon hearing Gu Qingshan's words.

Tang San's mind went blank.

He and Xiao Wu had been inseparable for six years, even sharing a blanket; their relationship had long since transcended that of ordinary classmates.

But now, someone was telling him she wasn't human.

She was a soul beast.

A 100,000-year-old soul beast.

His body trembled slightly, his hands clenched tightly together; it was all just too sudden.

Xiao Wu shrank behind Tang San, her face as pale as paper.

She had been discovered!

She had been discovered!

She had been discovered!

She looked up at that young man, who was chewing on a Blue Silver Leaf, watching her with a smile on his face.

It was as if he were looking at a little rabbit that had accidentally wandered into his home, contemplating whether to braise it or stew it.

"I will go with you, just don't hurt the others."

Xiao Wu's eyes turned red, and she stood up, trembling.

"No, no matter what Xiao Wu is, don't even think about hurting her!"

Tang San stepped forward without hesitation, shielding Xiao Wu behind him.

His body leaned slightly forward, his Purple Demon Eye pushed to its limit, and his left hand drew several tiny hidden weapons from his sleeves.

Even though he knew he was no match for a Title Douluo, even though he knew he might not be able to withstand a single move from that youth.

He had to stand in the way.

"Third Brother!"

Xiao Wu was completely moved, tears streaming down her face.

The others also reacted, rushing to stand in front of Xiao Wu.

Gu Qingshan watched their reactions, shifting the Blue Silver Leaf from the left corner of his mouth to the right.

Tang San, level 32, a little piece of trash.

The others, aside from Dai Mubai having a slightly higher level, were all one-shot fodder.

Gu Qingshan couldn't be bothered with nonsense and merely glanced at Yue Guan.

Yue Guan understood and stepped forward: "Hmph, is it your place to speak?"

The moment the words fell, his martial soul was released.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum bloomed behind him with a roar, its golden petals layered and sharp as blades.

Nine soul rings rose from beneath his feet, the aura of a level 96 Super Douluo erupting to lock down all of Shrek.

The expressions of the Shrek Seven Devils shifted as they felt a mountain pressing down on their hearts, making it difficult to even breathe.

Flender, Zhao Wuji, and the other academy teachers sensed the heavy pressure and rushed over.

Seeing a Title Douluo, they shrank back, whispering to ask Yu Xiaogang what was happening.

Upon learning that the opponent was a Title Douluo from Martial Soul Hall here to capture Xiao Wu, they didn't dare to let out a peep, standing timidly to the side.

Just then, an overbearing aura surged from the distance, accompanied by a voice that exploded in the air.

"Ju Huaguan, how dare you!"

The dominance and killing intent carried in the voice made the faces of several of the Shrek Seven Devils turn even paler.

A figure appeared in the sky.

The figure was tall and burly, his messy black hair fluttering in the wind, his face covered in stubble, his eyes deep-set yet sharp as knives.

Tang Hao.

Carrying the massive Clear Sky Hammer, nine soul rings rose from beneath his feet: two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red.

A red 100,000-year-old soul ring.

Tang San looked up at that burly, peerlessly dominant figure in the sky, his pupils constricting sharply.

"Dad?"

His eyes reddened, his nose soured, and he nearly burst into tears.

His father was actually a Title Douluo, a top-tier existence on the continent.

His father possessed a 100,000-year-old soul ring and had been silently protecting him all along.

Xiao Wu is saved!

"Dad, they want to capture Xiao Wu!"

"Rest assured, with Dad here, no one can do anything to you."

Gu Qingshan watched Tang Hao make his domineering entrance; the man who arrived with his own background music in the original work had finally appeared.

When he was six, Gu Qingshan had stolen Tang Hao's wife, and back then, he had hidden it with extreme caution, terrified of being discovered by Tang Hao.

Six years later, he was no longer that minor Spirit Master; even a Title Douluo had died by his hand.

He didn't give a damn!

Yue Guan looked at the slovenly man who had made such a flamboyant entrance, a hint of gravity flashing in his eyes.

Years ago, the former Pope Qian Xunji had led a team, and together with Gui Mei and another Title Douluo from Martial Soul Hall, they had besieged Tang Hao just after he had broken through.

The result, however, was Qian Xunji being critically wounded, one Title Douluo falling, and both he and Gui Mei suffering significant injuries.

But now, his Martial Soul had undergone Martial Soul Evolution, his spirit power had risen to level ninety-six, and he had the Holy Son present.

The advantage is mine!

"Tang Hao, you actually aren't dead yet? What? Is the hundred-thousand-year spirit ring you swindled from the Blue Silver Emperor not enough for you?"

"Now you want to repeat the same trick? Let your son do it too? You two are truly father and son!"

Yue Guan's words struck right at Tang Hao's sore spot.

Tang Hao's complexion turned iron-blue in an instant, his eyes burning with crimson light, filled with killing intent.

"Ju Huaguan, you are courting death!"

Tang Hao hoisted the Clear Sky Hammer and dove down from the sky.

The Clear Sky Hammer was raised high in his hand, dense spirit power condensing on the hammer head, and he smashed it toward Yue Guan with destructive force.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum spun wildly behind Yue Guan, golden petals flying out like a rainstorm, each one carrying enough power to pierce through metal and stone.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion erupted over Shrek Academy, leaving the academy teetering on the brink of collapse.

Tang Hao's second hammer strike came crashing down.

Yue Guan's petal blades shattered, golden fragments dancing in the air, and his body retreated three steps under the recoil, each step leaving a deep footprint in the ground.

As expected of the Clear Sky Douluo!

The battle continued.

Flender's face was pale; he felt like an ant standing beneath the feet of an elephant, liable to be crushed to death at any moment.

The terror of a Title Douluo is truly this immense!

"Everyone, retreat to a distance!"

Tang San and Xiao Wu wanted to leave, but were blocked by Gu Qingshan.

Looking at Gu Qingshan with one purple and five black spirit rings at his feet, Tang San dared not act rashly; he only needed to wait for his father to defeat that sissy!

Frank and the others scrambled to the distant hillside, stopping to catch their breath as they looked back toward the direction of Shrek Academy.

They discovered that more than half of the academy had collapsed, leaving behind a cloud of dust.

Yet Yu Xiaogang was staring blankly at Gu Qingshan and those spirit rings at his feet that defied all logic.

"Impossible!"

"How could the first spirit ring possibly absorb a thousand-year one?"

"And from the second spirit ring onwards, they are all ten-thousand-year ones?"

"What kind of joke is this! This does not conform to the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul."

Frank was speechless; what time was it, and he was still talking about the Ten Core Competencies.

My academy! Who did I offend to deserve this!

"Brother San..." Xiao Wu stood by Tang San's side, her voice trembling, her eyes red, and tear tracks still hanging on her face.

Humans are truly too terrifying!

Tang San reached out and gently held Xiao Wu's hand.

"Don't be afraid! My dad is sure to win; that sissy is no match for my dad!"
