Substitute Shrek Seven Devils

By the time Ya Li reached Yun Qianyue, the latter had just finished beating Qiangu Zhangting to a pulp. It was hard to tell if this guy had some peculiar fetish, but he simply refused to leave no matter how hard he was hit!

"Qianyue!" Ya Li called out.

"Teacher's wife!"

Yun Qianyue looked toward Ya Li and walked quickly to her side. Qiangu Zhangting also straightened his posture and bowed to Ya Li in greeting: "Greetings, Holy Spirit Crown!"

Ya Li's gaze landed on Qiangu Zhangting. After looking him up and down, she said: "Spirit Pagoda Master Qiangu has sent a message; he seems to have an urgent matter for you. You should return to the Spirit Pagoda immediately."

"Hm? My grandfather has an urgent matter? But..."

Qiangu Zhangting was stunned. He had been about to say that if Qiangu Dongfeng really had an urgent matter, he could have just used a soul communicator, but upon seeing Ya Li's expression, he swallowed the rest of his words.

As the grandson of the Spirit Pagoda Master, Qiangu Zhangting naturally understood what this meant.

"In that case, I shall take my leave! Holy Spirit Crown." Qiangu Zhangting bowed to Ya Li and departed.

After he left, Ya Li took Yun Qianyue's hand and said: "Come, follow me!"

Yun Qianyue looked at Ya Li with curiosity, a murmur of confusion rising in her heart. What kind of day was this? Zhuo Shi had sought out Yun Qianzhao, and now Ya Li had come for Yun Qianyue?

"Teacher's wife, where are we going?"

"To the Sea God Pavilion. Your master and Elder Long are all waiting there," Ya Li said to Yun Qianyue in a gentle voice, then joked: "Don't worry, it's definitely a good thing!"

It wasn't until they arrived at the Sea God Pavilion that The Twins understood what the "all" meant.

Aside from Yun Ming, Long Yeyue, and the other Sea God Pavilion elders, Shen Yi, Wu Changkong, and Tang Wulin's group were also there!

"Why does it feel like something big is about to happen?" Xu Xiaoyan muttered in a low voice.

"Don't worry, it's a good thing," Zhuo Shi said to Xu Xiaoyan with a smile.

Tang Wulin's gaze landed on Yun Qianyue, and he nodded in greeting: "Uncle-Master Qianyue!"

Yun Qianyue merely glanced at him without responding.

Yun Ming took in the situation between the two, gave a light cough, and said slowly: "You must be wondering why the academy has suddenly summoned you all! First, let's make introductions. This is Na'er, a student from the Inner Court."

After Yun Ming finished speaking, Na'er stepped out from the side.

Her appearance left Tang Wulin and The Twins greatly astonished!

"Na'er?!"

Tang Wulin exclaimed, causing Yun Ming and the others to look surprised: "You know each other?"

Na'er looked at Tang Wulin, smiled softly, and nodded in reply: "Yes! We know each other; he is my older brother!"

"Hahaha, I never expected such a connection between you!" Upon hearing this, Zhuo Shi burst into loud laughter, and Yun Ming, Long Yeyue, and the others couldn't help but marvel at the workings of fate.

"Good heavens... Boss, your sister is this amazing? She's already an Inner Court student!" Xie Xie looked at Na'er, finding it hard to imagine just how high her talent must be to enter the Inner Court at this age!

Tang Wulin was also incredibly excited. He hadn't expected that after Na'er left on her own, she would actually end up at Shrek Academy! He couldn't wait to talk to her and ask how she had been during this time.

However, hearing Xie Xie's exclamation, he still proudly puffed out his chest.

This was his sister!

Gu Yue felt a complex mix of emotions as she watched Tang Wulin's proud expression.

"Follow me inside."

Yun Ming waved his hand and led everyone into the Sea God Pavilion. Compared to The Twins and Na'er, this was the first time Tang Wulin and his group had entered the Sea God Pavilion. The interior of this power center of Shrek Academy was quite different from the grand, golden, and magnificent place they had imagined.

It was very ordinary, looking just like any standard conference room.

Yun Ming led them to a room that resembled a historical archive. Displayed here were the Shrek Seven Devils who had made significant contributions over the past twenty thousand years, from the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils all the way to the generation of Yun Ming.

"What you see now is the highest honor for students of Shrek Academy: the history of the Shrek Seven Devils!" Long Yeyue took charge of explaining the history of the Shrek Seven Devils to the group.

In her slow, deep tone, a sense of vicissitudes washed over them.

Tang Wulin and the others were filled with shock and excitement. The Twins wore expressions of similar shock and excitement, but if one looked closely, one could see a deeply hidden coldness in the depths of their eyes in the most subtle of corners.

To Shrek Academy, the glorious first generation of Shrek Seven Devils were the architects of The Twins' suffering in their previous life.

Looking at the seven statues standing in the deepest part of the archive, The Twins took a deep breath.

But years of mental cultivation had long since allowed them to suppress their true emotions. Even powerhouses like Yun Ming and Long Yeyue would be unable to detect it unless they were observing with deliberate, intense scrutiny.

Walking to the very back, standing in front of the sculptures of the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils and the generation of Huo Yuhao, Yun Ming and the other Sea God Pavilion elders turned to look at The Twins and Tang Wulin's group.

"Now, you should be able to guess why we called you here, right?"

Xie Xie's mind worked quickly, and he said: "Could it be related to the Shrek Seven Devils?"

Yun Ming glanced at him and nodded: "You guessed correctly! After serious discussion during the Sea God Pavilion meeting, the academy has decided to appoint you as the Substitute Shrek Seven Devils!"

The current Shrek Academy already had a set of Shrek Seven Devils, all of whom were Inner Court students.

Yun Ming spoke with a serious expression, announcing the Sea God Pavilion's decision to everyone: "From this moment on, you seven are the Substitute Shrek Seven Devils! At the same time, Qianzhao, Qianyue, Na'er, Tang Wulin, and Gu Yue, you five are the Lifetime Shrek Seven Devils! Qianzhao will be the captain, and Tang Wulin will be the vice-captain."

If Elder Jin hadn't held Tang Wulin and the others in such high regard, Yun Ming might not have made such a firm decision.

Among the first five, Tang Wulin was likely the only one truly happy from the bottom of his heart. Although the other four also displayed surprise and astonishment, their thoughts were each quite different.

"Why aren't we included?" Xie Xie muttered in a low voice.

Wu Changkong immediately shook his head at him, signaling him to shut up. Zhuo Shi, who was in front, heard him and turned back, saying, "Brat! Even if I give you this title now, can you handle it?"

"I definitely can't handle it."

Xu Xiaoyan shook her head from the side. She was self-aware; compared to the first five, she was far inferior in both soul quality and strength.

Xu Xiaoyan even felt that the title of Substitute Shrek Seven Devils was probably given to them because of their good relationship with Tang Wulin.

It is important for people to be content. Xu Xiaoyan was already very satisfied to have such an honor.

Ya Li looked at the two and smiled gently, "You don't need to be discouraged. As long as you work hard while traveling with them, it's not impossible to have a lifelong title in the future!"

"Your Excellencies, I refuse!"

Gu Yue's expression was serious as she cupped her hands to Yun Ming and the others.
