Yu Xiaogang: I'll destroy the Dragon God at any cost

It turned out that as soon as this body had arrived on the Douluo Continent, a transmigrator had taken it over.

Thanks to him, a body that should have belonged to an idiot had grown safely to the age of six, awakened its Martial Soul—the Golden Dragon—and possessed Innate Full Soul Power.

After that, life had been a breeze. At twelve, he had even been admitted to Shrek Academy as an exception and marked out for special training.

That's rough, man.

Lin Yuan almost lost it when he reached that part. The moment his soul returned, the transmigrator had been pushed out and utterly destroyed, body and soul.

The guy spent all that time building up my account. Why do I feel kind of bad for him?

From the man's memories, Lin Yuan finally understood why his Divine Examination could span all six worlds from Soul Land I through Soul Land IV.

It could have covered even more, but the guy had left too soon.

It all came down to the Myriad Realms Douluo System the transmigrator had possessed. With enough points, it could summon characters from any Plane in the Douluo series.

That system was what had connected Soul Land I through IV for him.

As luck would have it, the system's owner had transmigrated into Lin Yuan's body. In a sense, Lin Yuan himself had linked all those Planes together, so his Divine Examination had naturally crossed between worlds too.

When the man learned of the Dragon God's Ten Trials, he had set his sights on the Supreme Dragon God Seat. He poured his entire fortune into founding an academy so makeshift it could hardly be called one: Myriad Realms Shrek Academy.

Then he dumped every point he had saved over the years into summoning several major figures.

The first was Yu Xiaogang from the comics. Yes, the comics—the world where everyone was normal.

He was the white-haired middle-aged man who had just brought Lin Yuan his medicine.

Lin Yuan had to admit, he was much easier on the eyes.

Next came the comic versions of the Shrek Six Devils: Tang San, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun. Every one of them was there except Dai Mubai.

Lin Yuan couldn't tell whether the transmigrator simply disliked Dai Mubai or had deliberately left a spot for himself. After all, this body was only twelve.

Then there was Gangzi.

That one was hard to explain.

On his first summon, the transmigrator had selected the wrong world and summoned Gangzi. Since the points were already spent and he didn't want to return him, he had let him stay.

So the academy now had two Yu Xiaogangs: Yu Xiaogang and Gangzi.

Who could keep a straight face at that?

And the guy hadn't stopped there. A full main lineup apparently wasn't enough; he had summoned protagonists from other Planes as well.

There was Huo Yuhao, fresh from Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's sacrifice and not yet a member of the Tang Sect or Shrek.

There was also Tang Wulin, whom he had dug out of some Parallel World: no Golden Dragon King seal, no trace of Tang San's soul, no contact with Gu Yuena, and no time at Shrek. A completely sugar-free Tang Wulin, as pure as they came.

Lin Yuan saw no Lan Xuanyu. Maybe even the transmigrator had found that guy's values too outrageous to summon him.

Beyond them, there was one more bombshell.

The Divine Examination judged talent, not level, since everyone would be brought down to the same age. But strength mattered in the real world.

The transmigrator had Innate Full Soul Power and had received the Red-Level Nine Trials. To keep himself safe, he had spent every remaining point on an unrivaled powerhouse!

Qian Renxue, a level 99 Limit Douluo.

She was in the academy right now.

Even after Lin Yuan had digested it all, his head was still buzzing.

A transmigrator had entered his body with a summoning system spanning countless worlds. He had brought over the comic-world Shrek Six Devils and Yu Xiaogang, a level 99 Qian Renxue, a fresh-start Huo Yuhao, an ultra-pure sugar-free Tang Wulin, plus one thunderous Gangzi. Gangzi aside, it was an unbeatable start.

The man had made only one mistake: transmigrating into Lin Yuan's body.

Had he chosen anyone else, he would have been Lin Yuan's toughest opponent. Lin Yuan only had a system that linked worlds; it couldn't compare to a system that summoned people from across the Douluo worlds.

With that lineup, the transmigrator could have swept through everything. Without cheating, Lin Yuan would have had a hard time beating him.

But now they were all Lin Yuan's. Qian Renxue could serve as his bodyguard, the comic-world Yu Xiaogang was genuinely smart enough to devise tactics, and Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin were both absurdly gifted. So was Lin Yuan. This was in the bag.

With him there, Myriad Realms Shrek Academy would eventually crush every other Shrek—even the original.

And he really wanted to see how Tang San and the current Shrek Seven Monsters would react when they met these Shrek Seven Monsters in the Divine Realm.

How would Dai Yuhao react to seeing Huo Yuhao?

Lin Yuan guessed that, aside from Qian Renxue, everyone else's Divine Examinations should have arrived by now.

It was time to meet the teachers and students of his academy.

"Everyone, assemble for a meeting."

Lin Yuan sent a message to the group through his Soul Guidance Communicator. A moment later, everyone's devices lit up.

They had adapted quickly. They had only arrived a few days ago, yet they had already bought Soul Guidance Communicators.

After receiving Lin Yuan's message, the few who weren't already in the courtyard hurried over.

Yu Xiaogang sat quietly at the stone table reading while the Shrek Six Devils trained. Gangzi, meanwhile, hovered beside Tang San and spoke in a hushed, earnest voice.

"Xiao San, remember this: I'm your real teacher.

If you don't listen to me, I'll destroy that impostor at any cost."

Lin Yuan heard him from a distance, and the corner of his mouth twitched. Gangzi was too much. He had been summoned here alone and had immediately set his sights on someone else's disciple.

Tang San didn't know what to do with him either. He couldn't bring himself to choose Gangzi.

Fundamentally, Gangzi and his teacher were the same person—just different versions from Parallel Worlds.

Tang San couldn't accept such an absurd version of his teacher, but he couldn't offend him either. All he could do was ignore him.

Everyone else was present. Qian Renxue was the only one who arrived late from outside.

Dressed in a golden court gown, Qian Renxue had her hands full of snacks unique to the world of Legend of the Dragon King. She ate with obvious relish, looking entirely relaxed and content.

The moment Lin Yuan appeared, every eye turned to him.

Lin Yuan looked around at them.

"Looks like most of you have received your Divine Examinations."

"Yes, Headmaster. We all have."

"Headmaster, I haven't."

Huo Yuhao hung his head, disappointment plain on his face. "My Innate Soul Power was only level one. I didn't meet the threshold for a Divine Examination. I've let the academy down."

"I haven't either, Headmaster. My Innate Soul Power was only level one."

Tang Wulin sounded just as dejected.

"Neither have I."

Qian Renxue spoke between bites. "I'm not one of Shrek's people, so of course I wouldn't get one."

"Nor have I."

Yu Xiaogang closed his book. "My Innate Soul Power was only level 0.5. A Divine Examination would never come to me."

As for Gangzi, the subject set him off the moment Lin Yuan brought it up. He leaped to his feet.

"Damn it! What's so great about the Dragon God?

How dare he deny the great Grandmaster a Divine Examination? I'll lead Shrek to destroy the Dragon God at any cost!"
