Background / History

Shrek Academy was formally an institution for educating soul masters, but possessed its own territory, autonomy, and army. Its exceptional independence made it distinct from ordinary academies within the Sun Moon Federation. 51

Its graduates frequently retained loyalty to the academy after entering high Federation offices, allowing Shrek to influence Federation affairs despite not participating directly in major meetings. This influence made it an uncontrollable and unstable factor in the eyes of some Federal Councilors. 51 456

The academy maintained a longstanding public reputation as the Federation’s foremost soul master institution. It repeatedly won the Skysea Alliance Grand Competition without defeat before Jiang Xiu’s team broke its streak. 113 114 123 127

Reputation and Ideology

Shrek was widely treated as a holy land for soul masters. Its competition teams drew intense admiration, and its students openly took pride in the academy’s name and record. 113 114

The academy taught a strong culture of institutional honor. Students were described as identifying with Shrek’s glory and treating its defense as a personal duty. 114

• Its stated inherited ideals included being “Ice-Pure and Jade-Clean” and “never fearing power and never becoming a slave.” 325
• The title Shrek Seven Devils was its highest honor; it was conferred on students who brought distinction to the academy. 349 397
• Tang San and Huo Yuhao were identified as former Shrek Seven Devils. 349

Major Conflicts

Jiang Xiu’s Skysea Alliance Challenge

Shrek Academy entered the Skysea Alliance Grand Competition as the expected champion, having never lost since joining the event. 113 123

Jiang Xiu chose Shrek as his first opponent. He defeated captain Yu Yuanheng, then eliminated the entire seven-member Shrek team using his abilities, shattering its expected victory and public aura of invincibility. 114 126 127

Body Sect Dispute

Shrek recruited Jiang Xiu for a five-year exchange program after negotiating extensive concessions, including Soul Bones, resources, and access to the Golden Ancient Tree and Devil Island. 133 149

During his entrance assessment, Cai Yue’er attempted to persuade Jiang Xiu to permanently change allegiance to Shrek Academy. Jiang Xiu refused, and Mu Ye viewed the attempt as an unacceptable effort to poach his disciple. 141 149

The dispute escalated when Mu Ye confronted Shrek’s elders over their treatment of Jiang Xiu. Cai Yue’er was defeated, and Yun Ming’s intervention brought Shrek and the Body Sect close to open war. 150 152

Exposure of the *Secret of the Body*

Mu Ye, Jiang Xiu, and A Ruheng openly stormed Shrek Academy to demand the return of the Body Sect’s stolen inheritance. They were backed by the Spirit Pagoda, Yuanen Family, Blacksmith Association, and other allies. 410 411

Jiang Xiu’s method exposed the Secret of the Body in Zhuo Shi’s room. Its recovery publicly substantiated the Body Sect’s accusation and triggered fighting between Shrek Academy, the Body Sect, and their respective allies. 412

Shrek ultimately accepted major compensation demands and returned the Destruction-attribute inheritance Soul Bone. The Body Sect, in turn, agreed to forge Four-Word Battle Armors for Shrek every three years. 420

Bombardment and Fall

The Holy Spirit Cult and Qiangu Dongfeng plotted to destroy Shrek Academy with God-Slayer Class Fixed Soul Guidance Shells launched from within Shrek City. 109 419 444

During the attack, Long Yeyue deserted the academy’s students and teachers. Elder Jin preserved survivors with the Golden Ancient Tree’s power, but a second shell, the Heaven-Swallowing and Earth-Devouring, was launched against the academy. 447

Feng Wuyu and other elders remained behind to buy time for student evacuations, while Elder Jin gave his life to prevent Ah Yin from taking the Seed of Life. The resulting explosion destroyed Shrek Academy, though Jiang Xiu blocked the energy storm from devastating Shrek City. 448

Dissolution

After the academy’s destruction, Shrek-affiliated Federal Councilors sought to rebuild it in order to preserve their political influence and strengthen the Federation against the Abyss Plane. 589

Long Yeyue, after being defeated and stripped of her Radiant Sacred Dragon Martial Soul origin, was ordered by Jiang Xiu to announce the voluntary dissolution of both Shrek Academy and the Sea God Pavilion. 573

Her later announcement that Shrek Academy would be dissolved devastated many alumni and longtime believers in its legacy. 589 592 593

Relationships

• Body Sect — adversarial relationship centered on Shrek’s possession of the Secret of the Body; the conflict ended in compensation and the manual’s exposure. 411 412 420
• Sun Moon Federation — Shrek’s autonomy and alumni network gave it extensive political influence, creating hostility among some Councilors. 51 456
• Spirit Pagoda — a longstanding rival power; Leng Yaozhu supported the Body Sect during its confrontation with Shrek. 51 411
• Yuanen Family — broke with Shrek after disputes involving Yuanen Yehui and Cai Yue’er; later supported the Body Sect. 231 411
• Tang Sect — linked to Shrek through political support and shared vulnerability during the bombardment of Shrek City. 51 447
• Holy Spirit Cult — orchestrated the shell attack intended to annihilate Shrek Academy and enable the Abyss Plane’s advent. 109 419 444
