Tang San, You Siblings Are So Abstract!

None of the Tang siblings in the Light Screen had a normal way of thinking.

Besides...

Had they forgotten the most crucial point—the room had originally been booked by Dai Mubai!

They had stolen someone else's room and still thought they were in the right?

This was utterly absurd!

Douluo World

At that moment, Dai Mubai was pinned under Zhu Zhuqing's icy gaze.

Although Dai Mubai had already restrained himself considerably since she arrived at the academy,

no woman could possibly remain calm after seeing that the man she loved had once taken twins to rent a room.

Even if it had happened in the past!

Besides Dai Mubai,

Tang San was also enduring the strange looks cast his way from all around.

Many people secretly swore to themselves:

No matter what, they must never provoke Tang San!

What had that previous title said again...

The Pure and Holy Tang Buddha?

If this was what a Buddha was like, then that would be terrifying!

This was clearly Tang Yama instead!

If you provoked him, he truly dared to fight you to the death!

He was completely insane!

Oh, no, more accurately—it was Xiao Wu whom no one could afford to offend.

The moment Xiao Wu suffered any grievance, Tang San would immediately go mad!

It was one thing for a madman to be unstable; it was another for that madman to be terrifyingly powerful!

That fellow in the Light Screen, who looked as though he had gone mad,

was now the Sea God!

The reason he was so determined to raze Spirit Hall to the ground definitely had something to do with Xiao Wu.

Many people arrived at that conclusion simultaneously.

For a time, Tang San's reputation plunged to rock bottom once again.

Meanwhile, Dai Mubai was kicked more than thirty feet away by Zhu Zhuqing.

The two unfortunate brothers looked at one another and smiled bitterly, their faces filled with helplessness.

Dai Mubai in particular felt wronged—

At least exposing Tang San's dark past earned him a reward;

when his old scandal was exposed, he did not get so much as a hair. What the hell was this?!

[After that disturbance, the two encountered a shady merchant on the road. The man gave Tang San a gemstone for free, seemingly because he was acquainted with the Grandmaster.] [Tang San used the materials within the gemstone to successfully forge the Dragon Whisker Needle, ranked tenth on the Tang Sect's list of hidden weapons.] [They then set off for Shrek Academy to take the entrance examination.] [The name Shrek came from a type of monster. The academy's creed was to admit only "monsters" as students and reject all ordinary people!] [Most outrageous of all, they charged the fee before testing applicants. Those who failed the aptitude test were not only rejected, but their registration fee was also never refunded!]

This so-called Shrek Academy

once again left the Heavens and Myriad Worlds speechless.

They only accepted monsters and rejected ordinary people? Wasn't that just a fancy way of saying they only chose geniuses?

Why dress it up in such grandiose terms?

Academies that exclusively recruited geniuses were not uncommon throughout the Heavens and Myriad Worlds.

The better the academy, the higher its threshold. That was perfectly reasonable.

But they actually...

A registration fee of one hundred Gold Soul Coins was one thing, but they would not return the money even if someone failed the test!

Did they think they were funny?

This was plainly an unfair contract!

It would be understandable if some third-rate academy pulled such a stunt,

since scamming and swindling were their very means of survival.

But they called themselves an elite academy and still played these tricks.

It truly made people question whether this lousy academy had any real ability at all!

Oh, the strongest person in their academy was supposedly a six-ring Soul Emperor?

That made it even more ridiculous!

A six-ring Soul Emperor was equivalent to a Dou Emperor powerhouse in the Dou Qi World!

One hundred Gold Soul Coins were merely the equivalent of one hundred gold coins.

For a Dou Emperor, casually producing several million gold coins was effortless. Even tens or hundreds of millions were nothing more than numbers!

And yet they...

Still wanted to cheat applicants out of a mere hundred Gold Soul Coins?

Where had they thrown away the dignity of the strong?

[After passing the preliminary test, Tang San's group of four was directly assigned to the fourth assessment.] [The gatekeeper for this round was the seventy-sixth-level Soul SaintImmovable Wisdom King Zhao Wuji!] [The rules required them only to last one incense stick's worth of time under him, and Zhao Wuji would naturally hold back to an appropriate extent.] [Yet even a restrained Zhao Wuji remained an insurmountable mountain to Tang San and the others.] [During the battle, Xiao Wu used her second soul skill, *Charm*, but suffered a powerful backlash and was seriously injured.] [The sight of Xiao Wu's injury instantly sent Tang San into a rage!] [Since arriving in this world, Xiao Wu had already become the most important person in his life!] [Previously, he had nearly fought Dai Mubai to the death over nothing more than a verbal dispute. This time, there was even less need to say anything!] [Tang San immediately demanded a one-on-one duel with Zhao Wuji!] [Zhao Wuji readily accepted.] [But he was soon tormented beyond measure by Tang San's endless stream of hidden weapons—after all, he could not use his full strength.] [The Dragon Whisker Needle that appeared at the end caused him excruciating pain!] [In the end, Tang San not only lasted through the incense stick's worth of time, but also beat Zhao Wuji until his face was covered in bruises.] [Zhao Wuji had no choice but to summon Oscar and use his food-type martial soul to heal himself.] [Tang San and the others naturally passed the assessment.] [Afterward, Zhao Wuji was taught a lesson by Tang San's father, Tang Hao.] [In Tang Hao's words: after beating the younger one, the older one came along. This feeling of using power to bully others—was truly satisfying.]

Heavens and Myriad Worlds: ...

For who knew how many times, the Heavens and Myriad Worlds once again fell into utter silence.

No, did he have any sense of reason at all?

Zhao Wuji was merely testing his son according to the rules.

So he could not bear to let his child suffer even the slightest hardship?

The injuries his son sustained were purely from exhausting himself until he collapsed.

Look at Zhao Wuji—he was the one who was truly wronged!

A dignified seventy-sixth-level Soul Saint had been forced to fight with his hands tied, only to be battered all over by a twenty-ninth-level Spirit Master!

And this father had actually come to "avenge" his son?

Although the footage had yet to explicitly reveal Tang Hao's exact level,

judging from the Spirit Ring configuration he displayed,

he was at least a Title Douluo!

Even more outrageous, he had a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring!

A peak powerhouse of that caliber had actually holed himself up in a village and mooched off a child for six years!

Did he have any shame at all?

If he did, could he have his son cook for him, wash the dishes, mop the floors, and clean every day?

He had even nearly made a Twin Martial Souls genius with Innate Full Soul Power become a blacksmith!

Do not talk about any hardships or hidden reasons.

No matter how great his hardship, it was no excuse to mistreat his child like that!

Tang San might have an extreme temperament, but he was utterly devoted to this father of his!

Even after Tang Hao had deteriorated into a worthless drunkard,

Tang San still cared for him meticulously. Despite possessing peerless talent,

he had genuinely intended to follow his father's wishes, abandon the path of a Spirit Master, and become a blacksmith!

You father and son—

No, there were barely any normal people in their entire world!

Never had the people of the Heavens and Myriad Worlds felt such an intense urge to complain—

Those earlier scenes had also been full of things worth criticizing,

but they paled in comparison to the shock of this moment!

If jaw-dropping incidents were considered classics,

then the Douluo World was practically churning out classics nonstop!

[After learning that a Title Douluo-level powerhouse stood behind Tang San, Zhao Wuji no longer dared to make things difficult for the young man.]

[After all, with a peak powerhouse backing him, Tang San was simply impossible to provoke.]

[In the days that followed, everyone began their academy training and met the final student—Ma Hongjun.]

[At this point, the academy had seven students in total, and they were known as the Shrek Seven Devils.]
