Under the simultaneous effects of Bai Fan's Mental Detection and Mental Sharing, the Thousand-Year Datura Snake was quickly killed.
A purple Soul Ring rose from the Datura Snake's corpse, and Tang Ya immediately began absorbing it.
"Yuhao, what is your Martial Soul?"
Bei Bei frowned as he seriously questioned Huo Yuhao.
"My Martial Soul is Spirit Eyes."
"A Body Martial Soul? Very good. If I'm not mistaken, your first Soul Ring is a ten-year Soul Ring, right?"
"That's right. My first Soul Ring came from a Ten-Year Wind Baboon. As an orphan with no one to rely on, I could only hunt a ten-year Soul Ring."
Bai Fan put on a dejected expression.
"Ignorant fool. I am a noble million-year soul beast. Ordinary mortals will never understand just how sought-after Brother Tianmeng is."
"Hehe, sought after so they can suck away your cultivation?"
"Y-you-you..."
In the spiritual sea of consciousness, Brother Tianmeng was left speechless by Bai Fan's retort.
Bei Bei pondered inwardly, weighing the pros and cons.
In the end, he made up his mind and spoke.
"Yuhao, what are you planning to do next?"
"I'm just an orphan. I plan to improve my strength first. My dream is to join Shrek Academy and become a powerful Soul Master."
"Have you heard of the Tang Sect?"
"Of course. The sect personally established by the great Tang God-King ten thousand years ago."
The moment he finished speaking, Bai Fan mocked inwardly.
That bastard Tang San. If I didn't want the Tang Sect's secret techniques, I wouldn't bother saying something so against my heart.
"Yuhao, are you willing to join our Tang Sect? Tang Ya and I can provide you with a place at Shrek Academy."
"Really? I'm willing! Brother Bei Bei, thank you for giving me this opportunity."
Bai Fan put on an excited expression.
As the saying went, life was like a play, and it all depended on acting.
In his previous life, Bai Fan had been an excellent corporate slave. Acting was second nature to him.
Everything was moving in a good direction.
Outside the Heavenly Screen.
All the Soul Masters were shocked by Huo Yuhao's first Soul Ring.
"A million-year soul beast? Never seen before!"
Within the Star Dou Great Forest.
"It actually sacrificed itself to a human Soul Master? Tianmeng, you won't escape our grasp. I'll go capture you right now."
Di Tian's figure instantly vanished from the Life Lake.
Huo Yuhao, who had just finished absorbing the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's Soul Ring, slowly awakened.
"Brother Tianmeng, you were actually this amazing!"
The young man's eyes were filled with joy.
"Little Yuhao, don't be so happy yet. Trouble is on its way. We're done for."
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's plump body trembled nonstop, and his face was filled with inescapable terror.
The words in the spiritual sea of consciousness had barely faded.
When Di Tian suddenly appeared before Huo Yuhao.
"Tianmeng, come out! It is your honor to sacrifice yourself for the soul beast race."
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm temporarily took control of Huo Yuhao's body.
"Di Tian, you bunch of vulgar fools. No matter how high your cultivation is, you can never break through the God Realm's suppression of us soul beasts."
"I, Tianmeng, am the one who is right. Our soul beast race should adapt to the times."
"It is the trend of the age. We simply cannot contend against the gods."
Di Tian was thoroughly disdainful, and his expression even carried a trace of anger.
"Shut up, traitor! We soul beasts are noble. Why should we bow our heads to humanity?"
"I, Di Tian, have never believed in fate. I firmly believe that our Lord will lead us back into the God Realm, and the glory of the Dragon God will surely be restored."
Di Tian's pride would not allow him to bow to humans.
"Foolish. Ignorant. Every one of us is so insignificant before the tide of the times. So what if your group has high cultivation? No matter how high it is, can it compare to so many gods?"
"In their eyes, you can be destroyed with a wave of the hand. Everything you do is watched by the God Realm. Trying to fight your way back into the God Realm is nothing but a fool's dream!"
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm did not know where he found the courage, but he directly argued with Di Tian and roared at him.
"Hehe, spineless coward. So what if I die? What do I, Di Tian, have to fear?"
"So what if it is the trend of the age? We will go against it. If even the peak combat power among us soul beasts submits, then our soul beast race will face true extinction."
"From then on, our soul beasts will be completely erased by the river of history."
"More words are useless when we do not see eye to eye. Tianmeng, today, I will take you away no matter what."
Di Tian suddenly transformed into a dragon, and his dragon claw reached for Huo Yuhao's body.
Just as the dragon claw was about to touch Huo Yuhao, an immense force knocked Di Tian back.
His dragon claw trembled uncontrollably, his vertical pupils widened in shock.
"Impossible. This Heavenly Screen actually possesses such means."
Huo Yuhao, who had originally shut his eyes and awaited death, opened them wide. Tianmeng continued controlling Huo Yuhao's body.
"Hahaha, Di Tian, I was right, wasn't I? I, Tianmeng, am the one who is right. Even fate is favoring us!"
"Hehe, our soul beast race will never submit. Since I cannot kill you now, once this damned Heavenly Screen ends, it will be the day of your deaths."
Di Tian's enormous body flashed away.
Huo Yuhao regained control of his body, let out a long breath, and stared fixedly at himself on the Heavenly Screen.
"I will definitely follow in your footsteps."
Inside the Heavenly Screen.
Just like in the original story, Bai Fan successfully joined Shrek Academy.
He imitated the plot of the original story until Wang Dong appeared.
The two dueled in Shrek Square.
The elderly Mu En sat in a reclining chair, kindly watching the two youths fight.
Wang Dong's attacks were swift and fierce, while Bai Fan, with the strength of only one ring, struggled to resist.
With Mental Detection, Bai Fan fought Wang Dong evenly.
Bai Fan's attack was blocked by Wang Dong with a split.
That flexibility—no wonder he's a woman. The original story really hinted everywhere that Wang Dong was a woman disguised as a man!
Bai Fan thought to himself, but his movements did not pause.
Taking advantage of Wang Dong's inattention, Bai Fan's small hand formed a palm and struck toward Wang Dong's chest.
Wang Dong instinctively dodged, and Bai Fan followed with a kick toward his crotch.
"You're shameless!" Wang Dong cursed through gritted teeth.
Wang Dong's clean and neat clothes became dirty and disheveled, with many new wrinkles.
Finally, Bai Fan clasped his hands together, tightly hugged Wang Dong, and tackled him to the ground.
Sweat from his hair dripped onto Wang Dong's face.
"Get off me already! I surrender."
Bai Fan stood up first and pulled Wang Dong to his feet.
"We're roommates, not enemies. I hope we can get along amicably in the future."
"Tch!" Wang Dong slapped away Bai Fan's outstretched hand.
Bai Fan was not angered. He left alone, intending to return to the dormitory.
This frail body... Zhou Yi will put us through special training tomorrow. How am I supposed to endure it? Do I really have to rely on Wang Dong again?
The moment Zhou Yi was mentioned, Bai Fan wanted to complain.
"What kind of bullshit teaching method is that? She's even copying Yu Xiaogang's teaching methods from ten thousand years ago."
"The times are progressing. You can innovate your own teaching methods, but why copy Yu Xiaogang?"
"You cannot teach everyone equally. Instead, you specifically select geniuses to highlight how special you are."
"If she didn't have powerful backing, she probably would have been beaten up long ago!"
