Shrek Academy Opens

And perhaps because they did not have enough money to afford twins and had never stayed at the Rose Hotel.

Dai Mubai was not familiar with Tang San or Xiao Wu.

The two of them did not greet Dai Mubai at all throughout the process.

Under the intimidation of Dai Mubai, a level thirty-seven Battle Soul Elder with the optimal two yellow, one purple soul ring configuration.

The original queue of over a hundred people was reduced to barely more than a dozen applicants.

Lin Yuan discreetly surveyed the remaining people and discovered that, aside from himself, several others in the line were also observing everyone. However, they were far bolder than him about it.

The most conspicuous among them was a handsome youth dressed in a black long coat embroidered with silver patterns, his hair tied in a high ponytail.

He stood head and shoulders above the crowd, even taller than Lin Yuan, at a full 1.89 meters.

Broad-shouldered and solidly built, with long limbs and an exquisite face that looked like a work of art crafted by nature, he appeared wickedly handsome and flamboyant, like a noble young master from the demon realm.

From the very beginning, his gaze had never left Zhu Qing.

He looked as though he had stumbled upon a treasure, his eyes fixed on her as though she were something that would soon belong to him.

Zhu Qing's expression turned cold. She instinctively frowned and turned her head away. Clearly, she did not like being stared at so brazenly; she found it deeply offensive.

Yet the wickedly handsome youth did not care in the slightest. With a light laugh, he casually turned around and looked toward Tang San and Xiao Wu, who were registering up ahead.

Tang San, martial soul Blue Silver Grass, yellow-yellow soul ring configuration, level twenty-nine control-system Soul Grandmaster.

Xiao Wu, martial soul Soft Bone Rabbit, yellow-yellow soul ring configuration, level twenty-nine assault-system Soul Grandmaster.

Seeing that their cultivation and soul ring configurations had not changed from the original story.

He shifted his attention back to those waiting in line. After glancing once more at Zhu Qing and drawing an irritated look from her, he turned his gaze toward Lin Yuan, who stood at the very back of the queue.

Among everyone present, Lin Yuan might not have been the most handsome, but he was certainly the most pleasing to look at. He was the type who scored above eighty-five in every respect, perhaps even ninety.

In terms of appearance alone, Lin Yuan was undoubtedly the male present most likely to inspire goodwill in others.

But after sensing that his Soul Power fluctuations were below level twenty.

A trace of disdain flashed through the wickedly handsome youth's eyes, and he stopped paying attention to him. Instead, he looked at the two people standing ahead of him.

Those two stood between Lin Yuan and Zhu Qing.

One male and one female.

The young man had tousled black hair and wore a bright green fitted outfit trimmed with gold, giving him an air of nobility. He was roughly the same height as Lin Yuan, about 1.8 meters tall.

The young woman had the classic long straight blue hair, with azure locks cascading to her waist. She wore the same style of black leather outfit as Zhu Qing. While her figure was not as voluptuous as Zhu Qing's, it was still exceptionally well-proportioned.

Since the two had their backs to Lin Yuan, he could not see their faces. Still, from the lines of their necks and profiles, it was not hard to tell that they were the handsome-man-and-beautiful-woman type.

The two had been looking around from the start.

Like the wickedly handsome youth, the green-clothed youth kept staring at Zhu Qing from time to time. Occasionally, he would glance at Xiao Wu as well. Finally, when he turned around to look behind Lin Yuan, as though waiting for someone.

Lin Yuan finally saw his face. He resembled Dai Mubai by thirty or forty percent, and his eyes had double pupils.

Meanwhile, the woman had kept her gaze on Tang San, whose appearance was the most unremarkable, from beginning to end.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan had basically determined what type of transmigrators they were.

The man resembled Dai Mubai so closely, yet Dai Mubai clearly did not know him. He was most likely the illegitimate son of Star Luo Empire's emperor, Dai Tianfeng.

Judging by his Soul Power, he was probably around level thirty-four or thirty-five.

Lin Yuan did not know whether he had taken Immortal Herbs or Whale Rubber, or whether he possessed some cheat ability.

As for the woman, her Soul Power seemed to be only around level twenty-eight or twenty-nine.

She had stared at Tang San the entire time.

Perhaps the two were simply too naive, too careless, or too fixated on their respective targets.

When the wickedly handsome youth looked at them, they had somehow failed to sense anything wrong.

It was not until Li Yusong, who was in charge of registration, finished examining the wickedly handsome youth's bone age and signaled for him to release his martial soul.

That the two finally came to their senses.

Four soul rings—yellow, purple, purple, purple—rose beneath the wickedly handsome youth's feet, while a Black Dragon more than ten meters long coiled out from behind him.

The instant that martial soul appeared, it seemed as though the entire sky had darkened.

Even if the two were foolish, they now understood that he was a transmigrator like them.

Forget those two somewhat airheaded transmigrators—even Zhu Qing, Xiao Wu, Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others were badly startled. They stared blankly at the wickedly handsome youth, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Tang San, who had just finished registering, could not help murmuring, "A thousand-year second ring... How is that possible..."

There was a distinctly gritted-teeth edge to his voice.

His teacher, Yu Xiaogang, had once said that there was a limit to the absorption of every soul ring.

The absorption limit for the first soul ring was 423 years, the second was 764 years, the third was 1,760 years, and the fourth was around 5,000 years...

Yet this person before them possessed an unprecedented configuration of one yellow and three purple rings. Starting from his second soul ring, they were already thousand-year rings, while his fourth ring was faintly showing signs of turning black.

It was likely already over nine thousand years old.

Such an extraordinary soul ring configuration, coupled with the terrifying cultivation of a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor at merely twelve years old.

Was simply overwhelmingly powerful to the point of being unfair.

Tang San could not help thinking of Lin Tian from five years ago. He had thought that, after Lin Tian's death, no one among his peers could threaten him anymore.

Who would have thought that, just as he was taking pride in reaching level twenty-nine at the age of twelve, someone else had already become a Soul Ancestor at that age.

Lin Yuan likewise put on a stunned expression, though inwardly he muttered, "It seems this Yu Tianlong comes from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect."

"That Titled Douluo who brought him here back then was most likely Yu Xiaogang's father, Yu Yuanzhen."

The wickedly handsome youth took in everyone's reactions, then unhurriedly announced his name, martial soul, and Soul Power Level. "Yu Tianlong. Martial soul: Dark Sacred Dragon. Level forty-five assault-system Battle Soul Ancestor."

"Level forty-five!"

Another wave of shocked cries erupted from the crowd. Li Yusong could not help saying "Good!" three times in a row. It was obvious just how excited he was.

He seemed to have already envisioned Shrek Academy becoming famous across the continent.

In contrast, Tang San had already clenched his fists. His gaze was locked firmly onto the wickedly handsome youth as he thought resentfully, Yu Tianlong, just how strong are you now?

After Yu Tianlong completed his test, several more people were tested. Their Soul Power was all around level twenty-one or twenty-two, barely enough to pass Shrek Academy's first entrance examination.

But judging by the fact that their martial souls did not seem particularly powerful, they would likely be eliminated in the second or third assessment.
