Chu Feng arrived at the east gate of Shrek City. While the other three gates belonged to Shrek City, only this east gate belonged to Shrek Academy, facing the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Should a soul beast riot occur within the Star Dou Great Forest, Shrek Academy would be the first to bear the brunt.
The other gates belonged to Shrek City and could be entered or exited at will, but to enter through the east gate, one required credentials from Shrek Academy.
However, as it was currently the enrollment period for Shrek Academy, Chu Feng successfully entered the city by relying on the city lord's recommendation letter provided by the system.
What met his eyes was a bustling scene of heavy traffic and endless crowds.
Early in the morning, a large number of vendors had already occupied the trading zones on both sides of the street, shouting incessantly. Some sold breakfast, some sold various local specialties, and others sold all kinds of weapons; it was incredibly lively.
As soon as Chu Feng entered the city, he encountered many strange looks.
[You shocked Ma Fei, reward: Gold Soul Coin *1] [You shocked Sha Qima, reward: Gold Soul Coin *1] [You shocked Shi Yongkang, reward: Gold Soul Coin *1] [You shocked...] [...]
Chu Feng felt speechless upon noticing the massive amount of rewards from the system.
However, he discovered a small limitation of the Shock System: it seemed one could only receive rewards from a maximum of five targets within a certain period, and each target could only be shocked once.
Although there were restrictions, the rewards already given were enough to make him invincible; any more would just be icing on the cake, merely shortening the time it would take for him to reach that state.
He entered the city and noticed no fewer than dozens of gazes sweeping over him, yet there were only five notifications, which confirmed this point. Furthermore, the strength of the shocked target was the key factor in determining the reward.
Setting aside the thoughts in his mind, Chu Feng quickly ran into a clothing shop to pick out a suitable outfit for himself.
It was true that his current attire of animal skins and his disheveled appearance from trekking over mountains and through rivers were indeed a bit strange, so it was normal to cause some shock.
After a simple cleanup, Chu Feng soon found the enrollment office for new students at Shrek Academy.
The enrollment office was set up outside the main gate of Shrek Academy; it was just a simple little wooden hut, appearing completely out of place compared to the massive Shrek Academy behind it.
In front of the wooden hut sat an old man who looked to be seventy or eighty years old. With white robes and a white beard, he exuded an aura of a transcendent being, looking very gentle.
Behind him were several academy instructors and students assisting with miscellaneous tasks.
The enrollment conditions for Shrek Academy were known to all, so 99% of those who came here met the requirements. Coupled with the fact that enrollment lasted for a whole month—the time when school was out for the year—the number of people queuing was not high, with only a dozen or so individuals.
After waiting for half an incense stick of time, it was Chu Feng's turn.
"Extend your hand and relax..."
The old man spoke with a smile, his tone soft and relaxing.
"Alright."
Chu Feng nodded. He knew this was to test bone age, but he felt somewhat speechless inside.
Shrek Academy was still too rigid. Places like the Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy used machines, yet Shrek Academy, despite having a history of ten thousand years, still used this manual testing method; it was simply trash.
Moreover, with Soul Tool technology developing so rapidly over the years, the upper echelons of Shrek Academy pretended not to see it, and there were even plenty of teachers brainwashing students and constantly belittling Soul Tool technology.
This kind of trash academy had become completely deformed.
If not for the influence of Huo Yuhao, the Child of Destiny, Shrek's fortune would likely have reached its end.
"Twelve years old, very good. Release your martial soul and soul rings," the old man said with a smile, nodding in great satisfaction after checking him.
Although Chu Feng had not released his martial soul, the old man could feel the surging soul power within him; clearly, his rank was definitely not low.
"Hmm, my martial soul is my own body. As for the soul rings..." Chu Feng couldn't be bothered to hide it and directly released his soul rings.
"Hum--"
A buzzing sound came from Chu Feng, and the space itself seemed to tremble slightly.
The next moment, two incomparably dazzling soul rings rose slowly from beneath Chu Feng—one deep purple, and one deep black, so black it was almost red...
"A thousand-year! A ten-thousand-year!!"
"How is this possible--"
The old man's previously gentle, smiling face shattered on the spot, replaced by a look of utter shock. His eyes were practically popping out of their sockets as if he had seen something inconceivable. His entire persona of a transcendent being completely collapsed under the impact of Chu Feng's soul rings.
The surrounding new students and academy teachers were also stunned into speechlessness, their jaws dropping one by one.
What had they just seen?
The first soul ring was a thousand-year!
The second soul ring was a ten-thousand-year!
Who is this kid?
This simply subverts everyone's understanding of soul masters!
Even Evil Soul Masters wouldn't dare to play like this!
Is he a devil?
[You shocked Yan Shaozhe, rewarded with cultivation technique Heavenly Derivation Scripture] [You shocked Lu Yuanming, rewarded with cultivation technique Ice Skin Jade Bone Technique] [You shocked ***, rewarded with 100 Gold Soul Coin] [...] [...]
Seeing the prompts popping up from the system, Chu Feng was also fiercely startled. He didn't know Lu Yuanming, who was likely some instructor, but he never expected that Yan Shaozhe would be here, damn it!!
He had never met Yan Shaozhe, but he knew now that it was the old man in front of him who looked like a sage with a transcendent air.
He was a level 95 Title Douluo, after all. Why would a level 95 Title Douluo come to join in the fun of a freshman soul bone and soul ring test??
Is the Dean of the Martial Soul Department really that idle??
"Li... little fellow, how did you do it!!"
Yan Shaozhe's heart was surging with stormy waves at this moment, completely devoid of his usual calmness and composure.
He stared fixedly at Chu Feng, wanting to hear a reasonable answer.
Even with Twin Martial Souls, it was impossible for someone at his age to withstand a soul ring of such age!
The other party clearly possessed some kind of secret technique, and if this secret technique could be popularized...
The entire Douluo Continent would definitely undergo an unprecedented transformation! It might even usher in an unprecedented golden age for soul masters!
Chu Feng naturally did not guess the crazy thoughts in Yan Shaozhe's mind. Facing the terrifying pressure accidentally released from Yan Shaozhe's body, he was not afraid in the slightest. He only slowly retracted his soul rings before smiling and saying, "Teacher, this is related to my martial soul. You are too excited, teacher."
"Martial soul... Body Martial Soul... just like Du Busi!
Could he be from the Body Sect, and have a connection to Du Busi?
A flash of doubt crossed Yan Shaozhe's mind, but he quickly dismissed it.
Didn't he know what kind of people Du Busi and his Body Sect were?
As long as someone awakened a Body Martial Soul, they would spare no cost to recruit them into the Body Sect, even more overbearing than bandits.
For such a peerless monster, unless Du Busi's brain had been kicked by Di Tian, it was absolutely impossible for him to send such a genius to Shrek!
In other words, this kid was purely a wild, super monster!!
Although he had a Body Martial Soul, the strength of his soul rings, combined with Shrek's cultivation, meant he was destined to stand at the pinnacle of the continent in the future!
Putting aside the thoughts in his mind, Yan Shaozhe reached out with a trembling hand, patted Chu Feng on the shoulder, and laughed repeatedly, "Good, good, good... good child, you are admitted! Come with me, I will take you to handle the enrollment procedures."
"Ah?"
"Do I not need other assessments?"
Chu Feng raised an eyebrow and asked. He remembered that Shrek's entrance examination was quite strict; Soul Power Level and age were only the first hurdle, and there were other minor assessments afterward, which seemed to test one's temperament.
"Haha, no need." Yan Shaozhe laughed heartily, then stood up and pulled Chu Feng toward the inside of the academy. He walked with a spring in his step, clearly in a very pleasant mood.
However, as he was leaving, he glanced at an instructor standing nearby and said, "Teacher Lu, I'll leave this to you. I am going to take my stud... cough, cough, I am going to take this student to handle the enrollment procedures."
Yan Shaozhe hadn't expected that he was just bored and looking for something to do, so he took on the job of testing freshmen, only to encounter such a powerful new student. If he didn't take him as a disciple, it would be an affront to heaven.
"Ye... yes! Dean Yan!"
The instructor named Lu Yuanming heard this and quickly bowed his head in agreement. He watched the backs of Yan Shaozhe and Chu Feng as they left, his eyes complex.
It seems that among this year's freshmen, a truly peerless monster has arrived...
