Enrollment

The teacher quickly completed their registration.

Perhaps Xiao Xiao's Soul-Quelling Cauldron martial soul made quite a spectacle. Especially when she activated it and the cauldron hit the ground with a boom, the sound echoed throughout the venue and drew plenty of attention.

Quite a few people turned to look at the two of them.

Bei Bei said, "That girl's martial soul is extraordinary. Her Soul-Quelling Cauldron seems to be a mutated Three Lives Soul-Quelling Cauldron. In terms of martial soul quality, it's no worse than my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. And she's already reached two rings at such a young age. Her potential is exceptional."

"She really is impressive! She looks like such an innocent little girl. I wonder if we can trick her into joining the Tang Sect." Tang Ya began scheming again. Her martial soul was only Blue Silver Grass, and though she had relied on diligent cultivation to avoid falling behind at Shrek Academy so far—

Blue Silver Grass was, after all, not the Blue Silver Emperor. The further this martial soul was cultivated, the more powerless it became in the later stages.

Tang Ya herself knew that her chances of entering the inner court were extremely slim.

That was why she had always wanted to recruit more disciples with limitless potential to strengthen the Tang Sect.

Huo Yuhao said, "The people who can enter Shrek Academy really are all outstanding. Teacher Xiao Ya, Eldest Senior Brother, perhaps I'm weaker than most of the new students registering right now, but I'll definitely surpass them in the future." His tone carried a calmness beyond his years, and his Spirit Eye was filled with incomparable determination.

Bei Bei was a head taller than Huo Yuhao. He reached out and wrapped an arm around his shoulders. "Let's go. The next three months will be your chance to prove yourself. Your senior brother believes you can do it."

"Hey, Yuhao, you're all focusing on the wrong thing. That little girl is indeed impressive, but the one you truly need to pay attention to is the boy beside her." At that moment, an adorably childish voice rang out in Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness.

Huo Yuhao asked in confusion, "That boy? Brother Sky Dream, is he that powerful? He clearly looks one or two years older than me, yet he's only at one ring like me. He can't compare to that girl, can he? Or is his martial soul particularly powerful?"

"His martial soul is ordinary. Supreme Pure Fire may be rare, but it can't compare to the second martial soul I'll prepare for you in the future. I can tell you in advance that it'll be Ultimate Ice. The problem lies with that boy himself. His Mental Power is unimaginably strong for someone at his cultivation level. Yuhao, although you possess a spiritual-type Body Martial Soul and have received my Million-Year Soul Ring, you still can't compare to him. In my estimation, your Mental Power is at most one-third of his current level."

"What?" Huo Yuhao was startled.

If it came to physical strength or the intensity of Soul Power, he could accept being inferior to others. But in terms of Mental Power, among those at the same cultivation level, he absolutely considered himself outstanding.

With a spiritual-type Body Martial Soul and a Million-Year Soul Ring, even if that soul ring was sealed, it was not something an ordinary Hundred-Year Soul Ring could compare to.

Yet someone at the same one-ring level had Mental Power more than three times his own. If these words had not come from the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, he would never have believed them.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was, after all, a Million-Year soul beast, and an extremely specialized spiritual-type one at that. Its physical attack power was practically zero; all its attributes had been invested into Mental Power. In spiritual matters, it could fully call itself the foremost on the continent, surpassed only by those true god-level monsters.

Its judgment of Mental Power was absolutely trustworthy.

Yuwen Tuo and Xiao Xiao passed by Huo Yuhao and the other two. Neither side exchanged any greetings.

Although Huo Yuhao was astonished by the strength of Yuwen Tuo's Mental Power, it had nothing to do with him in truth. What he needed to consider now was how to establish himself at Shrek Academy.

Tang Ya wanted to recruit Xiao Xiao, but she would not act rashly. She knew that with Xiao Xiao's talent, remaining at Shrek Academy would pose no problem. Since they were all at the same academy anyway, she could take things slowly in the future.

Xiao Xiao ignored the three of them as well. It could not be helped—before she had fully grown and matured, she was a little face-con. Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei both had decent features, but neither was an exceptionally handsome man. Tang Ya was beautiful, but she was a girl. At this point, if anyone could draw Xiao Xiao's gaze away from Yuwen Tuo, it would probably only be Wang Dong, who dressed as a boy.

The two entered Shrek Academy. The campus was beautiful, with abundant and flourishing vegetation. Walking along the broad avenue, no matter which direction they looked, they could see at least ten different kinds of plants, all of which had clearly been carefully trimmed.

After proceeding another two hundred meters, several enormous statues ahead blocked their view. There were seven statues in total, each ten meters tall and carved from the hardest granite.

At the sight of the seven statues, Xiao Xiao became extremely excited. "Yuwen Tuo, look! These seven statues are Shrek Academy's greatest pride—the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils. You must have heard of their legends, right?"

"What, Xiao Xiao? Do you admire them that much?" Yuwen Tuo asked.

"Whoever enters Shrek Academy doesn't admire them? Yuwen Tuo, don't tell me you don't even know who they are. Then let me tell you about them. The first among the seven was White Tiger Douluo, War God Dai Mubai. The second was Sausage Douluo, Food God Oscar. The third was the ancestor of the Tang Sect, Thousand Hands Douluo, Sea God Tang San. He was the strongest of the Shrek Seven Devils."

"The fourth was Phoenix Douluo Ma Hongjun. The fifth was the wife of Ancestor Tang San, Soft Bone Douluo Xiao Wu. After that came Nine Treasures Douluo, Nine Colors Goddess Ning Rongrong, known as the strongest support-type soul master. She was the wife of Sausage Douluo. The final one was Netherworld Douluo, God of Speed Zhu Zhuqing, the wife of White Tiger Douluo." Xiao Xiao spoke with fervent excitement.

She looked just like a young fangirl seeing the idol she had longed to meet.

"Well? Seven gods! After hearing about their deeds, Yuwen Tuo, you must admire them too, right?"

"Hehe, I have someone else I admire. I still think my master is more outstanding, even more formidable than Tang San, who is said to be the greatest." Yuwen Tuo smiled.

"Little brother, respecting your master is a good thing, but boasting isn't a good habit." Tang Ya and the other two were not far behind them. Since they shared the same destination, it was only natural for them to be walking the same route.

Tang Ya had been quite pleased to see Xiao Xiao admire Tang San, the ancestor of her Tang Sect, so much. She had not expected to hear this boy speak so arrogantly.

In her eyes, how could anyone in this world possibly be more outstanding than the ancestor of her Tang Sect? This boy must simply have been biased in favor of his master.

Yuwen Tuo merely smiled and could not be bothered to argue with her. His master was not even in this world, so there was no way to prove it. Besides, he did not need to prove anything to them.

"Come on, Xiao Xiao. We should head to the dormitories. Let's unpack our luggage first. Classes will begin in a few days. I hope we get assigned to the same class."

With that, Yuwen Tuo left with Xiao Xiao, leaving Tang Ya fuming. "What's with him? He's so rude. He actually ignored me. I was even considering taking him in and teaching him the Tang Sect's ultimate techniques. Now that I think about it, the Tang Sect doesn't want such an ill-mannered disciple."
