"Pfft—!"

"What an interesting little kid!"

"Hahahaha! You're killing me! Your mom actually taught you that? Honestly, I really want to meet this fascinating mother of yours."

Chen Doudou looked at the person speaking and thought to himself, Really? I'm afraid you wouldn't dare.

Everyone at the scene was laughing their heads off.

Even the usually aloof Zhang Lexuan couldn't help but chuckle, her shoulders trembling slightly as the firelight cast a warm glow across her face.

Meanwhile, in the God Realm.

The heart that the Rakshasa God had been holding onto finally gave up.

She slid right off her throne, gritting her teeth as she glared at the little brat in the crystal ball who was busy stuffing his face while nestled in a soft embrace: "Well played, Chen Doudou. Is that how I taught you? You're even lying to your own mother now!"

The Asura God's face was as dark as a pot: "..."

If we don't want this kid anymore, can we send him back to the furnace to be remade?

The God of Destruction finally couldn't hold it in anymore, clutching his stomach and roaring with laughter, his previous guilt vanishing in an instant.

This kid is going to be the death of me, hahahaha.

That's right, that's exactly how you do it.

Fight, fight! Make your mom and dad furious.

The Goddess of Life covered her mouth and giggled: "Doudou is such a child; his mouth is even more formidable than his martial soul."

The Goddess of Kindness nodded: "It's fine, at least we don't have to worry about him being deceived by others."

Chen Doudou hugged Zhang Lexuan and nuzzled against her, looking completely content: "Besides, Big Sister is so pretty, she couldn't possibly be a bad woman."

Ma Xiaotao's face darkened. She stared at him with a resentful gaze, her voice carrying a hint of danger: "Oh? So you mean to say that I'm the bad woman?"

Zhang Lexuan tilted her head, watching him with great interest, seemingly curious to hear how this little ancestor would talk his way out of this one.

Chen Doudou turned around, looked at Ma Xiaotao, and flashed a harmless, innocent smile on his little face:

"Bad woman, do you know the biggest difference between you and the pretty big sister?"

Ma Xiaotao blinked curiously: "What is it?"

"Because the pretty big sister is a little bit pretty, but you... are a little bit funny."

"Chen! Doudou!"

Ma Xiaotao's fair face turned beet red in an instant, and she clenched her fists.

The next second, she lunged at Chen Doudou in a fit of rage.

"You naturally evil little brat, say that again—who is funny?"

"Hey, friend, fighting is one thing, but give me some space!"

A few minutes later.

After the commotion, the way the team looked at Chen Doudou grew even softer.

After all, in such a stifling environment, having a little comedian to help ease their tense nerves was a stroke of good fortune.

At this moment, Chen Doudou was busy devouring roasted meat.

Ma Xiaotao sat cross-legged under a nearby tree, watching him wolf down the food, and asked curiously: "Chen Doudou, you appeared here all by yourself—don't your parents care about you?"

After all, a child suddenly appearing in the Star Dou Forest was far too abnormal. One could even boldly guess if he had been abandoned by his family, left here to fend for himself.

"Why are you asking about that?"

Chen Doudou replied casually.

Hearing this, a flicker of pity appeared in Ma Xiaotao's eyes.

How pitiful, losing his parents at such a young age. No wonder he was left here to fend for himself...

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The flatbread was too dry, and since it was his first time eating it, Chen Doudou choked.

Ma Xiaotao hurriedly unscrewed the cap of her water bottle and handed it to him.

After taking a few gulps of water, Chen Doudou finally stopped choking: "Whew..."

That was close.

He almost became the first transmigrator to die from choking.

Ma Xiaotao gently patted his back to help him catch his breath: "How could you be so careless? Don't you know you have to eat dry rations slowly?"

"Thank you."

Chen Doudou said.

Having lived in the God Realm since birth, he had never eaten such dry, hard food; he felt as if his teeth were about to atrophy. Combined with the fact that it was his first time trying it, this situation had occurred.

Ma Xiaotao's pupils constricted slightly, seemingly not expecting the kid to say thank you. She smiled gently, "Right, Doudou, have you turned six this year?"

"Yes."

"Do you want me to help you awaken your Martial Soul? If your Martial Soul is decent, how about I take you to Shrek Academy to study when the time comes?"

This was not just a whim on Ma Xiaotao's part.

It was mainly because she truly felt pity for this kid.

Furthermore, when she was messing around with him earlier, she had used her soul power to probe Chen Doudou's body, but she couldn't perceive anything—not even a trace of a Martial Soul.

Usually, when such a thing happens, there are only two possibilities.

First, someone had placed a restriction on his body, making his soul power undetectable.

Second, he was simply an ordinary person who hadn't awakened a Martial Soul.

Of course, there was one exceptional case: that Chen Doudou's strength far exceeded her own, but how could that be possible?

Chen Doudou had been abandoned in the Star Dou Forest to fend for himself; it was impossible for any powerhouse to have specifically placed a restriction on him.

"Xiaotao, you're speaking too soon."

A young man who looked to be about twenty years old, standing not far away, reminded her out of kindness.

The threshold for admission to Shrek Academy was not low; one needed not only talent but also a letter of guarantee from a city lord.

He didn't believe that a strange child who had inexplicably appeared in the Star Dou Forest could possess such talent.

Moreover, giving someone hope only to let them fall into despair later was the cruelest thing in the world.

"No need, I have already awakened my Martial Soul."

As Chen Doudou spoke, he opened his right palm.

A small, purple scythe shimmering with the light of life instantly manifested.

The moment the Life Rakshasa Holy Scythe appeared, everyone who had been resting with their eyes closed was drawn by this aura and opened their eyes.

Zhang Lexuan's pupils contracted, and she exclaimed, "Such a dense aura of life!"

A male student with slightly dark skin cried out, "This kid's soul power is so surging; it must be Innate Full Soul Power!"

"Wait, what? Innate Full Soul Power!"

The crowd was stunned.

One had to know that Innate Full Soul Power was rare across the entire Douluo Continent.

Could they have actually stumbled upon it so easily?

"That's not all! The life aura of this Martial Soul is even stronger than the Tree of Life Martial Soul of the inner court seniors. Just smelling a breath of it makes one feel refreshed."

One of the short-haired girls speculated, "Do you think this could be Ultimate Life?"

"How is that possible?"

"Exactly, how could the life attribute have an 'Ultimate' form?"

The crowd whispered and discussed among themselves.

One had to know that the life attribute was not some common, dime-a-dozen attribute; almost any Martial Soul associated with the life attribute was rarely weak.

And Ultimate Life was a legend that had never appeared in history.

Therefore, such words could not be spoken lightly.

Ma Xiaotao patted Chen Doudou's shoulder with a triumphant expression, looking as if she shared in the honor, "Hahaha... I knew I hadn't misjudged him."

The student who had previously warned Ma Xiaotao twitched the corners of his mouth repeatedly, already beginning to doubt his life.

"What incredible luck. The kid she picked up at random is actually Innate Full Soul Power, and he has a top-tier Martial Soul to boot."

At this moment, Ma Xiaotao leaned over slightly, looking at Chen Doudou with anticipation, "Doudou, do you want to join our Shrek Academy? If you join, there are many benefits, you know..."

"No."

Chen Doudou refused without a second thought.

"Why? What's wrong with Shrek? Besides, if you don't join Shrek, where can you go on your own?"

Ma Xiaotao was full of confusion.

She truly couldn't understand why Chen Doudou would refuse her when he was clearly in such a miserable state.
