"Check in!"

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully checking in at Shrek Academy!] [Received first-tier top-level check-in reward: Soul Power Level +1!] [Congratulations! Your Soul Power Level has successfully broken through! Current level: 40!]

Buzz!!!

A violent, immense wave of Soul Power suddenly spread out from Ao Yin!

Tang San, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing, who had just been about to rest, all jolted violently!

The three girls' eyes widened on the spot, their faces utterly blank!

Ridiculous!

Utterly ridiculous!

He had just finished fighting Zhao Wuji. How long had they rested?

And he had already broken through again?!

What kind of monster had Shrek recruited?

Dai Mubai's face was filled with utter shock. Even his voice trembled. "Brother... Ao... you broke through already??"

Ao Yin remained calm and said with a faint smile, "I gained a great deal from sparring with Teacher Zhao just now, and I accidentally... broke through!"

Dai Mubai swallowed hard. "Accidentally?"

Could the gap between people not be this huge?!

Others had to cultivate bitterly for months, even a year, just to barely advance one level. This guy fought one battle and leveled up on the spot!

Even Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, proud daughters of heaven, were thoroughly stunned.

"Is he even human?"

Xiao Wu shrugged and said with a faint smile, "You'll get used to it!"

Then she patted Dai Mubai on the shoulder, signaling for him to take her to her new dormitory.

Night deepened, and darkness completely shrouded Shrek Academy.

The secluded back mountain was touched by a cool evening breeze.

Two figures stood silently there.

One was broad and burly. It was Zhao Wuji, who had just returned after suffering a setback.

Standing before him was a strange-looking middle-aged man.

He appeared to be around fifty, with broad cheekbones, a flat face, and a protruding chin.

A pair of square crystal glasses with black frames rested on his hooked nose, making him look particularly peculiar.

He was none other than Shrek Academy's dean—Flender!

Zhao Wuji was currently reporting the day's assessment.

"Dean, this year's batch of little monsters is exceptionally good. One of them, in particular, is monstrously talented."

Hearing such high praise from Zhao Wuji, who was always strict and could not tolerate any flaws, Flender was immediately intrigued and looked astonished.

In all his years, he had rarely seen Zhao Wuji praise anyone like this.

It seemed this batch of little monsters truly was extraordinary!

Flender immediately pressed for details, asking carefully about the new students' strength, talent, and performance.

The two spoke intently, completely unaware.

Within the shadowed canopy of the towering ancient tree behind them, moonlight spilled down.

A tall, burly figure in black robes stood silently there.

Even Dean Flender, at level seventy-eight, had failed to notice him!

Only after Zhao Wuji finished his report did Flender lower his head by chance and catch sight of an unfamiliar dark shadow on the ground!

Whoosh!

Every hair on Flender's body stood on end!

His pupils suddenly contracted!

"Who?!"

"Someone is in the back mountain!!"

A cold, deep male voice suddenly rang out from the darkness, devoid of the slightest emotion:

Flender and Zhao Wuji's expressions changed drastically!

Their bodies instantly tensed to the limit!

Seven Soul Rings lit up beneath each of their feet as they entered their highest state of defense!

A monstrous wave rose in both their hearts!

This was the back mountain of Shrek Academy, and both of them were genuine Soul Sages!

Yet this person had appeared behind them without making a sound?!

If he had been an enemy launching a sneak attack, they would likely already be dead!

Their hearts pounded wildly as they became alert to the utmost degree!

The next instant!

Buzz—!

The shadow on the ground suddenly vanished!

The black figure flashed, and space distorted slightly!

In an instant!

The burly man in black robes appeared directly before them, only inches away!

Flender spoke in a low voice, forcing himself to remain calm:

"Who are you, sir? Why hide your face instead of showing yourself?"

His mind raced. His martial soul was the Four-Eyed Owl, making him exceptionally vigilant. Even if the other party were a Soul Douluo, it would be difficult for them to evade his detection right under his nose!

Yet the man had appeared without giving off the slightest trace of aura. Could he be... a Titled Douluo?!

But why would a Titled Douluo come to this tiny Shrek Academy to cause trouble?

The black-robed man's voice was icy, carrying endless pressure:

"You'll know who I am soon enough."

As soon as he spoke!

A boundless, terrifying Soul Power erupted with a thunderous boom!

Rumble—!

Nine incomparably dazzling Soul Rings rose one after another beneath his feet!

Yellow! Yellow! Purple! Purple! Black! Black! Black! Black! Red!

All nine rings lit up!

The final ring was an alluring crimson hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring!

Its light was blinding!

Its pressure swept across the entire back mountain, its terrifying aura crushing heaven and earth!

Flender and Zhao Wuji's minds went blank instantly!

Their bodies stiffened as they trembled uncontrollably!

Their lips quivered as they blurted out:

"A... A Titled Douluo!!"

Soul Rings represented strength. A nine-ringed Titled Douluo was unquestionably among the continent's greatest experts!

The two were completely dumbfounded!

How could tiny Shrek have drawn the arrival of a Titled Douluo?!

Flender instantly admitted defeat, lowering his stance to the extreme as he hurriedly cupped his hands.

"Please calm your anger, Your Excellency!"

"My Shrek Academy has never offended any Titled expert! If we have offended you in any way, please make it clear!"

Before a Titled Douluo, what was the Immovable Bright King? What was the dean of Shrek Academy?!

Beside him, Zhao Wuji's legs had gone weak with fear, his entire body rigid.

Before a Titled Douluo, a Soul Sage was no more than an ant!

The other party could crush him to death with a single finger!

The black-robed man snorted coldly, his tone filled with rage:

"You haven't offended me?"

"Then you'll have to ask Zhao Wuji what he did!"

Whoosh!

Flender instantly turned, glaring wildly at Zhao Wuji!

His mentality completely collapsed!

"Zhao Wuji! You dared provoke a Titled Douluo?!!"

Zhao Wuji nearly burst into tears on the spot!

He had been wronged!

He had no idea whom he had offended!

Just then!

The black-robed man raised his hand and slowly removed the hood of his cloak.

A weathered, stern face, marked by the hardships of life, was revealed!

He snorted coldly. "You beat the little one, so naturally I have to back him up!"

At the same time, he clenched his large hand!

A gigantic hammer, pitch-black all over and filled with a terrifying aura of destruction, appeared in his palm with a boom!

He slammed it viciously into the ground!

Boom!!!

The back mountain trembled violently!

A fierce wind raged as shattered stones flew everywhere!

Two words exploded beside their ears like thunder!

"Tang Hao!!"

Flender's pupils contracted sharply, and his entire body turned ice-cold!

He recognized the Clear Sky Hammer at a glance!

The Clear Sky Douluo!

The supreme killing god who had smashed the Spirit Hall Pope and roamed the world unchallenged!

It was actually him!!

Flender's mind raced, and he instantly understood those words!

You beat the little one, so I came to back him up!

He abruptly turned to Zhao Wuji, who looked as though he were about to cry from fear, his voice trembling:

"Wuji! Are you insane?! You actually dared lay a hand on Clear Sky Douluo's child!!"

Zhao Wuji's scalp went numb instantly!

Scenes from the battle earlier that day flashed through his mind!

That three-ringed Battle Soul Elder, that absurdly powerful youth—Ao Yin?

No!

Clear Sky Douluo's child... Tang Hao... Among the students recruited today, there was one with the surname Tang, named Tang San!

Holy shit!!!
