Afterward, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion pressed her forehead against Gu Chen's and released terrifying Fate Power.

Their memories exchanged at that moment.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion saw a blank expanse.

Gu Chen, however, saw memories of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion eating, sleeping, sleeping, eating, and praying for soul beasts whenever she had nothing to do.

After their brief exchange of memories, he felt a force flowing through his body.

At the same time, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion received the Dragon God's blessing. The Golden Dragon bloodline within her was purified once more, and her ultimate attributes rose layer by layer.

At that moment.

Gu Yuena and Di Tian silently watched the auspicious beast and Gu Chen, their hearts overflowing with excitement.

"My Lord, I feel that our soul beasts may finally be able to rise again!" Di Tian said excitedly.

Gu Yuena glanced at Di Tian and said solemnly, "If nothing unexpected happens, the opportunity has truly arrived. I just don't know what method my child has to become a god beneath the watchful eyes of the God Kings."

Di Tian rubbed his chin. "Since the young lord has come to our timeline, he should have a way, right?"

At that, Gu Yuena slowly raised her head and gazed at the sky.

She did not fully understand many of the Dragon God's abilities either, but since Gu Chen had arrived in this timeline, he should have a way to resolve the problem posed by the human God Kings.

Since things had come to this, they could only wait and see.

Beside her, Di Tian felt terrible as he looked at his lord's melancholy eyes.

His feelings were much the same as hers.

The soul beast clan had endured for so many years. They could not possibly let this opportunity slip away, but the God Kings above them were truly difficult to deal with.

Sigh...

A few minutes later, the Fate Power transfer ritual was finally complete, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion fell into a drowsy sleep.

Releasing Fate Power had drained her greatly. Though she had also received feedback from the Dragon God's bloodline, that power was simply too immense and had overwhelmed her into unconsciousness.

At that moment, Gu Chen slowly opened his eyes. A golden vertical eye had appeared on his forehead, containing terrifying Fate Power.

He had gained the ability to strip away another person's fate, allowing him to plunge someone into endless misfortune.

Fate Power truly lived up to its reputation.

With this, luck should be surrounding him, right?

Di Tian immediately came over and asked, "Young Lord, do you feel any different?"

Gu Chen nodded with a smile. "I feel exceptionally good."

Di Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he was fine, nothing unexpected had happened.

Gu Yuena said, "With fate's protection, your cultivation will proceed smoothly. This is the last thing Mother can do for you. Remember, the human world is extremely dangerous. You must be careful in all you do."

Gu Chen nodded, then looked outside. "Mother, I have to go."

Gu Yuena gave him a few more reminders before vanishing from where she stood.

Afterward, Di Tian escorted Gu Chen out of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Several days later, at the gates of Shrek City.

Gu Chen looked at the city overflowing with people and countless soul masters coming and going, a smile curling across his lips.

Although he had not encountered Huo Yuhao in the Star Dou Great Forest, nor met Tang Ya and received a Shrek admission invitation, that did nothing to diminish his determination to clear the Shrek dungeon.

Could one not enter the academy without the blessing of luck?

No!

There was one rule in the soul master world: the strong ruled.

If he could not enter Shrek through the normal route to clear the dungeon, then he would fight his way in.

At that moment, quite a few new students were already lining up at Shrek Academy's eastern gate.

"Brother, why don't you have an invitation from the city lord?"

A somewhat chubby new student beside him suddenly spoke. His soul power fluctuations were around rank thirty.

Gu Chen turned and discovered that this was someone who had appeared in the original story.

This person seemed to be called Xie Huanyue, and his martial soul was the Pipi Elephant.

Gu Chen smiled faintly. "Who said you must have a city lord's invitation to enter Shrek Academy? Can't I get in through my own strength?"

The moment those words came out, the students in line all turned to look at him.

Ten thousand years had passed, yet someone still wanted to enter the academy through Shrek's original admission method?

Without a city lord's invitation, Shrek's gates would not open for you.

To put it bluntly, Shrek had long since strayed from its original purpose. It had become an academy for noble geniuses, a place where all geniuses came to gild their reputations.

Besides, this guy's soul power rank did not seem very high!

With that level of strength, he dared act so arrogantly at Shrek Academy's gates? He might get beaten so badly that he would cry for his mother on the spot.

Xie Huanyue hurriedly shot Gu Chen a look and whispered, "Brother, you can't enter Shrek Academy without a city lord's invitation. If you really want to get in through strength, you'll get beaten until your head is bloody."

"There are plenty of experts in the Shrek Outer Court. The strongest among them are already at the peak of three rings. If you get beaten later, none of us will be able to save you."

Gu Chen smiled. "They are nothing but a rabble."

The moment those words were spoken, not only were the onlookers stunned, even Xie Huanyue fell silent.

All the senior students of the Outer Court were rabble?

Was that something a new student could casually say?

This was bad!

Xie Huanyue silently broke out in a cold sweat for Gu Chen. He nervously looked around, afraid that some senior student would set their sights on him.

Talking so recklessly would get him beaten.

However, just then, the teacher registering admissions in front walked over with his hands behind his back and asked, "Do you have a city lord's invitation?"

"I do not," Gu Chen said.

The registration teacher frowned, forming a poor impression of this student who had spoken so arrogantly.

Coming to enroll without a city lord's invitation meant choosing another method of admission.

However, this youth did not even seem to have two rings. The registration teacher had little interest in receiving him and waved his hand. "Your strength is insufficient. If you want to enter Shrek Academy, you must prove yourself, but your soul power rank..."

Gu Chen raised his head and asked, "Does soul power rank determine everything?"

"Then what is your martial soul?" the registration teacher asked again.

"Blue Silver Grass," Gu Chen said.

Swish, swish, swish—!

The instant Blue Silver Grass was mentioned, even the bystanders could not hold it in. They had thought it was some top-tier martial soul, but it turned out to be the continent's number one useless martial soul, Blue Silver Grass.

Did Your Excellency also wish to imitate the Tang Sect ancestor and become a god with Blue Silver Grass?

The facts proved that aside from the Tang Sect ancestor, who had cultivated Blue Silver Grass into godhood, later generations found it difficult to even cross the threshold of seven rings despite possessing the Blue Silver Grass martial soul.

Blue Silver Grass truly was a useless martial soul.

The registration teacher lost interest and waved his hand, preparing to drive him away.

A Blue Silver Grass martial soul? Was he making a mockery of him?

The continent's universally acknowledged number one useless martial soul wanted to prove it could enter Shrek with its fists? That was truly laughable.

However, just then, a female teacher in a woman's uniform and with a curvaceous figure suddenly walked over from ahead.

She was one of the teachers at Shrek Academy, Mu Jin, the sworn rival of that old hag Zhou Yi.

Mu Jin had come out to take a look at this year's new students, only to run into this situation.

This boy, who appeared to be around twelve years old, seemed to want to enter Shrek Academy through his own abilities.

Mu Jin became somewhat interested. Striding over on her long legs, she said, "This is the continent's number one soul master academy. If you want to study here, you must prove yourself. Although your martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, I am still willing to give you an opportunity."

"As long as you can defeat the strongest new student at your level, I will personally admit you into New Student Class Nine and make you my student. Do you dare accept the challenge?"

Gu Chen nodded. "Fine. Send out the best fighter in the Shrek Outer Court!"

Mu Jin narrowed her eyes. This youth only had around rank thirteen soul power. Wasn't he being far too arrogant?

The registration teacher beside her snorted disdainfully.

With that little strength, he dared challenge the strongest student in the Outer Court? He was probably about to be beaten until he cried for his mother.

Xie Huanyue silently sighed. He felt that this brother would probably not walk out of Shrek intact today. He had clearly come here to cause trouble.

The bystanders laughed themselves silly, nearly rolling on the ground as they mocked the useless Blue Silver Grass soul master.

Yet Mu Jin suddenly said, "Fine, I accept your request. As your teacher, I am also willing to bear the risk for you. Whether you are merely arrogant or truly capable, your confidence has impressed me."

"Could I trouble you students to bring Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi here? Tell them someone is challenging them."
