Background / History

Shrek had held the position of the continent's number-one academy for ten thousand years. Its prestige rested heavily on Sea God's Pavilion, whose powerful elders made other continental factions wary of the academy. 83 127

Its greatest foundation is the Golden Ancient Tree, also called the Tree of Life. The tree is described as the genuine core of the Douluo Plane, transplanted into Shrek ten thousand years earlier before Tang San's ascension. 113

Before the Spirit Fighting Tournament, four Sea God's Pavilion elders were killed in the Far North. Mu En ordered the losses concealed, fearing that the Sun-Moon Empire and Evil Soul Masters would exploit Shrek's reduced strength. 83

Shrek subsequently avoided acting on reports of Immortal Herbs in the Far North. While it still sought eventual revenge for its fallen elders, it hoped other factions would first weaken the Far North instead. 84

Sea God's Pavilion

Sea God's Pavilion is Shrek's most important internal institution. It is regarded as the academy's most mysterious location and was historically the source of Shrek's deterrent power. 83

Golden Ancient Tree

• Greatly accelerates soul master cultivation within its range. 113
• Can prolong the lives of gravely injured people and extend the lifespan of soul masters within its range. 113
• Stores the strength and remnant souls of Shrek's fallen powerhouses, which may answer the academy's call during an existential crisis. 152
• Became a major strategic target after its existence and benefits were publicized. 113 115 152

Spirit Fighting Tournament

Reserve Team Deployment

Shrek's official tournament team was heavily injured before the elimination rounds, forcing the academy to field its reserve team under Bei Bei and Wang Yan. The reserve members accepted responsibility for preserving Shrek's honor despite their weaker cultivation. 91 104

The reserve team defeated Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy using strategy, including Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's Martial Soul Fusion Skill and simulated soul rings. Xiao Xiao also exposed her Twin Martial Souls, while Xu Sanshi revealed Xuanming Displacement ahead of later matches. 104 105

Finals against the Sun-Moon Team

The final was framed as a contest between Shrek's ten-thousand-year dominance and the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy's attempt to end its long-standing second-place status. 127

Shrek lost the opening seven-versus-seven match after the Hongchen Siblings revealed their previously concealed Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Hongchen's Longing. Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, Bei Bei, and Dai Yueheng were seriously injured. 129

Shrek won the opening match of the 2-2-3 stage when Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong defeated the Hongchen Siblings, but both collapsed from exhaustion afterward. With Ma Xiaotao captured, multiple members crippled or unconscious, and the remaining fighters depleted, Shrek ultimately lost the tournament. 136

• Bei Bei — suffered a broken leg. 136
• Dai Yueheng — suffered fractured arms. 136
• He Caitou — lost an arm and a leg after being struck by a Soul Guidance Cannonball. 136
• Xu Sanshi — suffered the permanent loss of his “middle leg.” 136 152
• Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong — fell into deep comas following the tournament. 152
• Ma Xiaotao — was abducted by the Holy Spirit Cult after her Evil Fire destabilized. 132 152

Reputation and Information Crisis

Shrek's public image is built on its claim to uphold justice and oppose Evil Soul Masters. Wang Yan planned to use Huo Yuhao's encounter with Evil Soul Masters to reinforce this image publicly. 72

During the tournament, an information campaign spread detailed intelligence about Shrek's elders, the deaths of four elders, and the Golden Ancient Tree. The leaks created suspicion that Shrek had been infiltrated from within. 106 112 113

The campaign repeatedly alleged that Xuan Zi was the Holy Spirit Cult's “Supreme Elder.” Xuan Zi denied the claim, but the mixture of accurate details and fabricated accusations damaged his credibility with spectators and even members of Shrek's own team. 103 113 133

Later rumors expanded the accusations to claim that Shrek secretly cooperated with the Holy Spirit Cult and had been deliberately hollowed out by infiltrators across multiple generations. These allegations spread throughout Shrek City and the continent, but Mu En denounced them as slander. 141 149 150

Relationships

• Sea God's Pavilion — Shrek's governing and defensive core; its loss of four elders left the academy dangerously exposed. 83
• Sun-Moon Empire — long-standing rival whose team ended Shrek's tournament dominance; Xu Tianran later ordered an assault to seize the Golden Ancient Tree. 136 152
• Holy Spirit Cult — officially an enemy of Shrek, but public accusations of hidden cooperation damaged Shrek's reputation; the cult abducted Ma Xiaotao and secretly prepared an attack on the academy. 133 152
• Far North — hostile region responsible for the deaths of four Shrek elders; Shrek initially avoided direct retaliation, then was pressured into joining a campaign against it. 83 84 151
• Body Sect — opportunistic faction interested in Shrek's weakened state and the Golden Ancient Tree. 113 142
• Golden Ancient Tree — Shrek's greatest strategic asset and a central reason rival powers seek to destroy or occupy the academy. 113 152

Current Situation

Mu En departed to join the campaign against the Far North after negotiating for Shrek's captives to be released. Before leaving, he placed Xuan Zi in charge of defending Shrek and the Golden Ancient Tree. 151 152

At the same time, the Sun-Moon Empire mobilized its Border Legion toward Shrek, while Zhongli Wu secretly assigned the Holy Spirit Cult's Eight Great Elders to attack the academy. Shrek faces these threats with its senior ranks diminished and its student generation severely injured. 152
