Shrek

Huo Yuhao picked up a Red Jade Shrimp, peeled it, removed the tail, and began to eat it.

The meat was sweet and tender, and when swallowed, it had a warm feeling, as if the whole body was being nourished by an energy, which made Huo Yuhao's skin turn red, Blood Essence Vortex in his body began to spin wildly to digest this highly nourishing energy.

The energy from the Blood Essence Vortex slowly flowed into his meridians, circulating along specific routes. With each cycle, Huo Yuhao could feel his body becoming more resilient.

His muscles, bones, and internal organs were all strengthened under the nourishment of this energy, and his skin gradually changed from its initial flush to a crystal clear state.

Finally, after eating the entire shrimp, Huo Yuhao's Blood Essence Vortex expanded by one level, and his skin returned to normal.

"Having Blood Essence Vortex really makes a difference." Muyue nodded secretly as he watched this scene.

Ordinary Soul Masters don't have Blood Essence Vortex, so it takes them about a year to absorb the energy from the Red Jade Shrimp. A lot of that energy is wasted, resulting in low utilization. They are nowhere near as efficient as Yuhao.

Yes, he truly deserves to be the disciple he chose with his foresight.

To restore the glory of the original body, Muyue has an inescapable duty!

Thinking this, Muyue looked in Gu Yuena's direction again, his smile gradually fading, and several question marks appeared on his forehead, "???"

After Gu Yuena finished eating the Red Jade Shrimp, a slight blush appeared on her joyful face, which quickly faded away.

Could Gu Yuena also be a promising candidate for cultivating Bloodline Power?

Muyue's eyes were strange, and he almost had the idea of poaching talent from Zhen Hua and Heavenly Phoenix Douluo.

But two surprised voices interrupted his thoughts.

"What food? It smells delicious!"

"Isn't the food in the food cart usually pretty bad? Why does it smell so good?"

A boy of about fourteen years old and a girl of the same age walked in from another carriage.

The girl skipped over excitedly to the small table where Huo Yuhao and the others were. Seeing what they were eating, her eyes widened. "Ice Crystal Eel, Starlight Rice, and... Red Jade Shrimp?"

As a member of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Yue was knowledgeable and aware of the preciousness of these ingredients.

The first two are Specialty Product of the Extreme North, and only disciples of powerful forces can afford to enjoy them. Sometimes, they are even in short supply. The Red Jade Shrimp is even more difficult to obtain, requiring Limit Douluo or Four-Word Battle Armor Master. As the young lady of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, she had never even tasted it before, let alone seen it for the first time.

This also showed that the people in front of her were not simple, which made her resist the urge to order food from Muyue, who looked like a chef.

While Ning Yue was focused on the food, the boy beside him turned his gaze to Huo Yuhao, frowning slightly.

Huo Yuhao is currently consuming the second Red Jade Shrimp. His Qi and Blood and qi are fluctuating, causing him to feel a sense of oppression, as if his Martial Soul is being suppressed.

But how could that be?

His Martial Soul is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, a top-tier dragon-type Martial Soul. What Martial Soul could suppress him?

As one of the heirs of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and currently the strongest first-year student at Shrek, Yu Longheng is not particularly flamboyant, but he still possesses his own pride.

The fact that his Martial Soul was being suppressed by someone else made it difficult for him to remain calm.

Seeing the two little ones enter, Muyue's expression remained unchanged, but his gaze shifted to the corner.

A woman emerged from the shadows with a forced smile. She appeared to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with striking beauty. Her long, strange white hair cascaded down her back, and her dark green eyes flickered with a mixture of life and Destruction.

After appearing, she bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty! I am a teacher at Shrek, currently observing the trainees' assessments. I had no intention of disturbing your meal with your juniors."

Shen Yi truly did not expect that, on only his second ride on the Soul Tool Train since the start of the assessment, he would encounter a Titled Douluo.

She recognized the Red Jade Shrimp. Those two children were definitely not simple, as they could digest the energy so easily. And this middle-aged man she couldn't understand might be Four-Word Battle Armor Master... or even Limit Douluo!

Her luck... was only slightly better than that of the teachers whose students Spirit Pagoda. Fortunately, Yu Longheng and the other person were relatively calm and did not cause any trouble.

"Shrek?"

Muyue looked her up and down, his brows furrowing slightly. "It doesn't matter if it's a disturbance or not. This is a dining car; anyone can come in if they want. We haven't booked the whole place. Just make sure your assessment doesn't affect us."

Once upon a time, the Body Sect was a sect comparable to the Shrek Academy, but a war changed everything.

Ten Thousand Years Ago, Shrek Academy, as the pillar of the Douluo Three Kingdoms, was utterly defeated when facing Silver Moon Douluo. Along the way, they even caused a legendary incident involving the Death God's Emissary. In the end, for various reasons, they simply withdrew from the battlefield.

As for their Body Sect, as the guardian sect of the Heavenly Soul Empire, they fought to the very last moment. More than two-thirds of the sect's disciples were killed or wounded. Five of the eleven Titled Douluo perished, four were seriously injured, and even the sect leader died. They almost lost their lineage.

Today, because Shrek Academy produced the Sea God, it has not suffered a major blow and has remained at its peak, shining brightly to this day, and is remembered by thousands.

The Body Sect almost lost its lineage, and now he's the only level 94 player holding things together, but nobody cares about him.

The stark contrast made Muyue completely dislike Shrek Academy, but he wasn't about to give a cold shoulder to the younger students.

Seeing that Muyue had finished speaking and was no longer paying attention to his group, Shen Yi breathed a sigh of relief and transmitted his voice to the two students, "Don't disturb them."

Ning Yue nodded and sat down with Yu Longheng, who had a slight frown on his face.

Shen Yi glanced in the direction of Huo Yuhao and Gu Yuena again, then quietly hid himself.

"Long Heng, what's wrong?" Ning Yue asked in a low voice when she saw that Yu Longheng was still secretly watching Huo Yuhao.

"His Martial Soul..." Yu Longheng started to say, then shook his head. "It's nothing. Let's get off at the next stop."

"But the next stop is Heaven Soul City." Ning Yue frowned slightly. "The ultimate goal of the assessment is Skysea City. Wouldn't it be better to go directly to the Skysea Alliance?"

Yu Longheng: "We're taking a cooperative assessment, so we'll face more opponents. The quality of Soul Masters in the Skysea Alliance isn't high, so it'll be difficult to find suitable opponents. Let's go challenge other cities first."

The academy's Final Assessment support-type Soul Masters. Even though Shrek's support-type Soul Masters have combat capabilities, they're ultimately no match for Battle Spirit Master. They can't exactly have them specifically challenge support-type Soul Masters who are five levels higher than them, can they?

That's why there's this collaborative assessment. Although the difficulty is doubled, with his strength and Ning Yue's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, he has few rivals.

According to some teachers and senior students, in the past, there was a bottom-ranking elimination system for Final Assessment, and the students with the lowest scores would be expelled. Even support students couldn't form teams... Their class is much luckier than the past, they've caught up with a good time.

Ning Yue thought for a moment and nodded, after all, she was relying on Yu Longheng, the strongest first-year student. "Then, if we go to Heaven Soul City, where will we find opponents to improve our scores?"

The Final Assessment score is closely related to whether one can enter the Inner Court. Once one enters the Inner Court and is registered in the Tang Sect as a disciple, one will have the opportunity to go to the "Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well" and obtain the legendary Immortal Herb.

Their ancestor, Ning Rongrong, of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect transformed into the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda because of Immortal Herb, and ultimately became a god. Her purpose in Shrek Academy was to Immortal Herb.

A glint flashed in Yu Longheng's eyes. "Go to the Soul Master Academy or... to a radius of a thousand meters from the Spirit Pagoda. That's where the most Soul Masters come and go, and we can find our opponents the fastest!"

The Immortal Herb was also something he desired, so he would do everything in his power to add it to the Inner Court.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi was hiding in the shadows, thought of the complaint letter about the Spirit Pagoda that had come from the academy earlier, and his brows twitched violently, but after thinking for a moment, he still didn't say anything.

She had also experienced the college's Final Assessment and understood the pressure students faced.

The Skysea Alliance is located in the eastern part of the continent, while Shrek Academy is situated in the center. Even by taking the Soul Guidance High-Speed Train without changing trains, it would take a full three days to reach it.

The trainees only have fifteen days. After completing the assessment, they must return to the Shrek Academy, a round trip that will take at least six days. Moreover, they must find people to challenge in ten different cities, leaving them with very little time.

In Elder Cai's words, this was a very good comprehensive quality education class, where students were tested on their clothing, food, housing, transportation, strategies, and so on.

As for running into a brick wall along the way... they warned us not to mess with people we couldn't afford to offend, because everyone has to be responsible for their own actions.

"Long Heng hasn't forgotten the rule that Soul Power and any Soul Tool Weapons cannot be used in combat within a kilometer radius of the Spirit Pagoda. It's alright," Shen Yi thought to himself.
