Yin Chen While eating food that tastes really good and contains a small amount of energy, he complained crazily in his heart:

'This Shrek Academy, which has been inherited for thousands of years and is number one in the mainland, is full of these inexplicable stinky rules and mistakes? It can't even give up a seat for dining? Is it called training one's mind? Or is it just being stingy?'

He looked around at the freshmen who were standing or squatting, also "dealing with" dinner, and a sense of absurdity arose spontaneously.

'The dignified No. 1 College in Mainland China is like a monastery in some respects, and it also seems to be short of funds. It's really...'

He swallowed the food in his mouth, and a sharp light flashed deep in his eyes.

'Just wait, when I become Sea God Pavilion Master and take control of this place, the first thing I will do is to change all these anti-human and formalistic rules. If I can't even guarantee the basic comfort of life, how can I pursue the peak of Soul Master?'

This idea became more and more firm in his mind.

He came to Shrek not to adapt to its obsolescence, but to... conquer it and reshape it according to his own will.

Sea God Island is quiet and peaceful under the night. The rich breath of life is intertwined with the energy of heaven and earth, making the night on the island a little clearer than the outside world.

By the lake, two stunning women with different temperaments were standing side by side, admiring the rare tranquility.

One of the women has long, shiny black hair and a cool and pure temperament, like a fairy under the moon. She is the leader of Inner Court's disciples, Zhang Lexuan.

She looked at her friend next to her, another woman with long, smooth flaxen hair and a gentle and intellectual temperament, and said with a smile:

"Sister Ruoruo, you will be going to Outer Court to serve as the freshman class teacher in two days. How do you feel? Are you stressed?"

The woman called Sister Ruoruo is none other than the famous Han Ruoruo among Inner Court.

When she heard this, a helpless smile appeared on her face:

"Lexuan, please stop making fun of me. I really didn't expect that the college would suddenly assign me such a task. Although I have occasionally assisted Outer Court in teaching before, they were all temporary classes or assistant management. This is the first time I have officially served as the head teacher of a freshman class like this. I am really unprepared."

The smile on Zhang Lexuan's face faded a bit and turned into a sigh, and his tone became solemn:

"There is nothing we can do about this. Sister Ruoruo, you also know that we Supervision Corps are now at our wits end. We only have so many disciples of Inner Court. However, in recent years, the number of 'resurrected' Nirvana Corpses on the mainland has increased more and more, and the chaos caused has also increased day by day."

"Although the three major empires have successively established institutions specifically to deal with such incidents, you and I know the faces of those nobles. Not to mention their inefficiency, many times they only care about their own interests. Counting on them, I don't know how many innocent civilians in remote areas will be brutally murdered by Nirvana Corpse."

She paused and continued:

"So, after discussion, the top management of the college decided to change the strategy and start training Outer Court disciples."

"Flowers that have been staying in the greenhouse will not be able to truly grow into talents after all. It is time for them to experience the cruelty and reality of this world in advance."

"Following up, the college will gradually assign some low-risk field missions, led by experienced teachers, so that Outer Court disciples can also participate in the crusade against low-threat Nirvana Corpse."

"Of course, this is all voluntary."

Zhang Lexuan emphasized.

"The college will not force any students to take risks, but for those disciples who are willing to take responsibility and go out to perform tasks, the college will provide more resources and give priority to those who enter Inner Court during the assessment."

"Even if the contribution to the task is outstanding enough, even if Soul Power Level or the talent is less, the college may admit him to Inner Court with exception. Except for you, Sister Ruoruo, most of the other Inner Court disciples who will graduate and are willing to stay in the college will be sent to Outer Court to serve as this kind of 'field mentor', responsible for leading and protecting Outer Court disciples."

"This is not only an exercise for Outer Court disciples, but also to greatly relieve the pressure of our Inner Court disciples' shortage of manpower."

Han Ruoruo nodded, looking solemn:

"I understand that I have no objection to the academy's decision. Outer Court has a large number of disciples, and there are many good ones among them. If they can experience practical training as early as possible, it will be of great benefit to their future growth."

"It's just... things happened a bit suddenly, and I haven't fully adapted to it yet."

As a Inner Court elite, she has naturally carried out missions to defeat Nirvana Corpse and is well aware of its dangers.

She rubbed her eyebrows, with a hint of heaviness and confusion in her tone:

"It's just, how did these Nirvana Corpse... appear? The academy has used such a huge intelligence network, but so far it has not been able to find any clues about its source. It is as if they appeared out of thin air. This is really strange."

She recalled the Nirvana Corpse she had faced. The greedy desire for life, the body as tough as gold and stone, and the terrifying self-healing ability all left her with lingering fear.

Zhang Lexuan shook his head, a hint of helplessness flashed in his beautiful eyes:

"I'm afraid even the elders of the Sea God Pavilion are still investigating this. I am already Soul Douluo, but I still am not qualified to touch the secret behind it."

"After all, there has been more than one Titled Douluo-level existence in Nirvana Corpse. Every time such a monster appears, it requires the elders to take action personally to solve it. The cause and effect behind it is beyond our ability to speculate."

She changed the subject and a smile appeared on her face again, trying to dispel the somewhat heavy atmosphere:

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Sister Ruoruo, the college has high hopes for you this time. There are several real 'Little Monster' in the class you lead this time."

Zhang Lexuan Thinking of the freshman materials I saw today, especially some of the dazzling data, there was a bit of amazement in his tone:

"Whether it's talent, strength or Martial Soul quality, they all deserve to be called 'monsters'. There are even some of them whose talents are even better than ours."

"That's why I have an even worse headache."

Han Ruoruo smiled bitterly, his tone full of worry.

"Genius often means arrogance and distinctive personality. I really don't know if I can suppress those little guys. Teaching students is not just about strength. It requires patience, methods and guidance."

"You can't... be like Outer Court's famous teacher Zhou, who always resorts to expulsion as a means? That would be a huge loss to the college."

Zhang Lexuan had obviously heard of Zhou Yi's "prestige" and said helplessly:

"The higher-ups of the college must have taken this into consideration. I heard that among the freshmen admitted this year, none of the Soul Elder-level geniuses were assigned to Freshman Class One. They were worried that Teacher Zhou was too... radical. If such geniuses were to be expelled at will, that would be a burden that Shrek could not bear."
