Soul Ancestor Graduation, Preparing to Leave

Actually.

Given his current strength, he could already graduate.

But before leaving, he still wanted to secure Shrek Academy's support.

They were all future gods.

Flender pondered for a moment after hearing Dai Mubai's words.

In the end, he sighed and said, "All right, then let's leave it at that for now."

At the very least, Dai Mubai would not be completely disconnected from Shrek Academy.

To a certain extent, Dai Mubai would still take part in regular training.

He simply would not attend Yu Xiaogang's theory classes.

More or less, that should be fine.

"Oh, right. I plan to have you participate in the Soul Master Elite Tournament."

Flender suddenly added.

"The Soul Master Elite Tournament?"

Dai Mubai spoke in surprise. "Doesn't our school lack the qualifications?"

Flender merely smiled at Dai Mubai's words. "No matter what, I can't hold you back. The Soul Master Elite Tournament is the stage where young people like you can show yourselves."

"As for me, I'll work hard over the next few years and see whether I can secure a slot."

Dai Mubai was far stronger than he had been in the original story.

After all, during the Soul Master Elite Tournament, many geniuses were only around twenty years old and merely possessed Soul Ancestor strength.

But Dai Mubai was only fifteen and already had Level 43 Soul Power.

He was far more talented than the geniuses from all the major academies!

He was only fifteen!

The next Soul Master Elite Tournament was still several years away.

Who knew how far Dai Mubai's Soul Power would develop by then?

A Soul King?

Even at worst, he should be a Level 45 or Level 47 Soul Ancestor.

With that kind of strength, winning the championship was entirely possible.

As long as they joined the competition and made a name for themselves in a single stroke, Shrek Academy would only get better and better.

"Fine."

Dai Mubai did not particularly care.

After all, Flender was the Dean.

"Mm, very good. Mubai, cultivate diligently and strive to break through to Soul King as soon as possible. Perhaps one day, you may even become a Titled Douluo."

"No, you will definitely break through to Titled Douluo!"

Flender patted Dai Mubai's shoulder approvingly before leaving.

Watching Flender's departing back, Dai Mubai could not help but shake his head.

He felt somewhat regretful.

Shrek Academy was about to disband.

His memories of Shrek were limited to this time spent on the outskirts of Suotuo City.

Once they went to Heaven Dou City, would that Shrek Academy still be Shrek Academy?

At any rate, Dai Mubai did not think so.

However, there was no way for him to warn Flender.

He also hoped that Flender could make Shrek better, rather than hand it over to someone else.

But whatever happened, Flender always liked listening to Yu Xiaogang.

He thought he was doing what was best for everyone.

Yet he did not realize that sometimes, he was only causing harm with good intentions.

"Zhuqing, where do you want to go in the future?"

Dai Mubai turned around, took Zhu Zhuqing's hand, and asked.

For now, he did not intend to leave Shrek Academy.

But one day, he would have to leave.

He needed somewhere to go, after all.

Hearing Dai Mubai's words, Zhu Zhuqing instinctively assumed they were about to leave Shrek Academy. She glanced at him.

"As long as it isn't back to the Star Luo Empire."

Night

Zhu Zhuqing lay quietly at the side.

Listening to Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong chattering away.

In the past, she had always fallen peacefully asleep to the sound of their conversations.

But when she thought about how she would soon be leaving—

Soon leaving these two roommates—

She felt a little reluctant to part with them.

"Zhu Zhuqing, why do you think Dai Mubai wouldn't let Grandmaster examine his bones? It was just a checkup, wasn't it?"

Suddenly, a little head leaned in front of Zhu Zhuqing. It was Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu was very innocent. She thought the whole matter had begun simply because Dai Mubai did not want Yu Xiaogang to examine his bones.

"Mm... would you be willing to let Grandmaster examine your bones?"

Zhu Zhuqing asked in return.

"Uh..."

Xiao Wu was genuinely stumped by Zhu Zhuqing's question.

She recalled Grandmaster's scruffy, sleazy appearance.

She immediately shook her head. "No."

"Then there you have it."

Zhu Zhuqing shrugged and said nothing more.

Xiao Wu slowly withdrew as well.

That was right. If she herself was unwilling, how could she blame that blond scumbag?

She could not help feeling guilty for pinning the problem on Dai Mubai.

Just then, a voice rang out.

"Well, if that's the only issue, I could actually do it in Grandmaster's place. I know the principles behind bone examination too."

Ning Rongrong spoke with a giggle.

Zhu Zhuqing shot Ning Rongrong a fierce glare.

The vicious look made Ning Rongrong shrink her neck.

She burrowed back into her blankets.

"What are you being so fierce for... I was only joking."

Ning Rongrong pouted indignantly. "Just you wait until I get the chance someday. I'll feel up your Mubai all over."

Late Night

Yu Xiaogang's Room

It was already very late, yet the room was still brightly lit.

Yu Xiaogang sat at the table, pondering the things Tang San had told him that day.

"When two people undergo Martial Soul Fusion, it can increase the flow rate of Soul Power..."

Yu Xiaogang continuously made notes on the paper before him.

"Perhaps I should try it with Flender another day? If the triggering condition is a Martial Soul Fusion Skill..."

Yu Xiaogang considered all sorts of possibilities on the draft paper in front of him.

Even when the sky began to lighten, the lamp in Yu Xiaogang's room had not gone out.

Early the next morning.

Tang San got out of bed very early.

He absorbed Purple Qi Comes From The East to strengthen his Purple Demon Eye.

Yet he still did not see Dai Mubai.

He had clearly risen early enough.

Yet Dai Mubai had somehow still gotten up before him.

Could he really work that hard?

Tang San's brows knotted tightly together.

Still, he gritted his teeth and headed out first.

Before long, the others gradually woke up as well.

In the morning, Shrek Academy's students were to gather on the training field.

But to Tang San's surprise, Dai Mubai was standing at the very far left of the group.

"I didn't expect Dai Mubai to come today too."

Tang San muttered under his breath.

Judging by Dai Mubai's reaction yesterday, he had thought Dai Mubai would not train with them.

"All right, today, we'll start with some practical combat training."

Yu Xiaogang stood before everyone with dark circles beneath his eyes. After yawning, he slowly said, "I don't understand your strengths, so today, we'll first test your abilities."

"All of you will challenge Dai Mubai."

"What? How could we possibly beat him?!"

Ning Rongrong was the first to speak. "He's a Soul Ancestor!"

"Exactly. We only have three Soul Elders here, and they're all newly advanced Soul Elders. How could we possibly beat him?"

Ma Hongjun and Oscar also felt that it was completely impossible.

It was not only the students who felt that way; Flender found it unrealistic as well. "Mubai is not merely a Soul Ancestor. The strength he can display has already reached the peak of Soul Ancestor. I'm afraid they won't be able to defeat Mubai."
