Shrek Academy.

At the entrance of the Dormitory, an exquisite boy and a ragged kid were having a fateful duel.

Huo Yuhao wore an angry expression as a ten-year Soul Ring lit up on his body.

"Even if I'm not your match, I won't let you bully me as you please."

Wang Dong smiled contemptuously:

"To deal with you, I don't even need to release my Martial Soul."

Just as the two of them were preparing to start their battle,

a teenage boy wearing a red and white hat made his entrance.

"The two of you are actually fighting privately at school? Add me to a good thing like this."

Chi Hong excitedly wedged himself between the two of them, speaking with an eager gaze.

Wang Dong frowned:

"Who the heck are you? Wearing a hat and thinking you look cool? Believe it or not, I'll beat you up together with him."

Hearing this sentence, a line of information flashed across Chi Hong's eyes.

[Wild heroine Wang Dong has discovered you and challenged you to a battle.]

Chi Hong faced Wang Dong and smiled:

"Then I'll take that sentence of yours as a battle invitation to me."

Wang Dong sneered:

"Hmph, you two poor kids come at me together. This lord will teach you both a lesson."

At this moment, Huo Yuhao was completely dumbfounded.

He didn't know how it was clearly his own fight, yet a weirdo wearing a hat suddenly popped out and stole his opponent.

Wang Dong strode toward Chi Hong with his long, slender legs, his movements extremely swift.

But what a pity.

Relying on his Super Pallet Town physique, Chi Hong backhanded a punch and batted Wang Dong flying.

[You used Serious Punch! It's super effective! Wang Dong fell into a daze.]

Looking at the information before his eyes, Chi Hong felt a wave of relief.

In his past life, he was a university student who accidentally worked himself to death while playing a Pokémon game in his dorm.

Then he transmigrated into this Douluo Continent.

However, the good news was that the Pokémon Master game that caused his death came along with him.

On the day he awakened his Martial Soul at age six, it turned into a game interface.

Since then, his Martial Soul had become two Poké Balls.

The difference was that one was normal and the other was Advanced.

The former allowed him to use one Pokémon from the game every ten levels.

The latter allowed him to subdue one Soul Beast from Douluo every ten levels.

Even more crucially, he had to use Pokémon to battle in order to raise his Soul Master rank.

Whether battling Soul Masters or Soul Beasts, he could gain experience points.

His starter Pokémon was Charmander.

The externally manifested first Soul Ring was only ten years old.

In the few years that followed, he brought Charmander to crazily seek out battles.

Challenging above his rank, defeating hundred-year Soul Beasts, and wild Soul Grandmasters.

Step by step, he made Charmander a hundred-year Soul Beast!

Yet he inexplicably felt that acquiring experience points was extremely slow, like a snail's pace.

Until one time, in the Soul Beast forest, he had Charmander casually strike and kill a ten-year Wind Baboon!

The interface suddenly popped out with information.

[Defeated wild Soul Beast ten-year Wind Baboon, acquired a small amount of experience points!]

[Ding-dong! Charmander has evolved!]

[Ding-dong! Charmander evolved into Charmeleon!]

He was dazed for a moment before realizing that his Soul Master rank had also risen by one level.

Creeping up to level fifteen.

Previously, this interface had never triggered at all.

After pondering for a long time,

He guessed it might be because the Wind Baboon was a key Soul Beast in the plot, which was why the acquired experience points were high.

Perhaps battling key plot characters yielded even more experience points.

This was just like fighting elite monsters in a game.

Thinking of this, he hurried over to Shrek.

Originally, he had wanted to run into the God King Huo by chance in the Star Dou Forest, but who knew that neither he nor Charmeleon knew the way.

In the end, he had no choice but to come to Shrek early to stake it out.

Now, the battle with Wang Dong truly confirmed his thoughts.

At that moment, Wang Dong groggily climbed up from the ground, rubbed his head, and his face was full of shame and annoyance:

"You hateful fellow! You forced me to use my Martial Soul, Light Goddess Butterfly!"

The next second, a pair of dazzlingly beautiful butterfly wings grew behind his back.

His whole person also flew up into the air, and a yellow and a purple Soul Ring hovered around him.

"Such a pretty Martial Soul." Huo Yuhao was somewhat surprised. "The second Soul Ring is actually a thousand-year one."

Chi Hong smiled slightly: "Just what I wanted."

He summoned his Martial Soul as well, a red-and-white Poké Ball appearing in his hand, and a yellow Soul Ring surfaced.

"I choose you! Charmeleon!"

It was not that he wanted to shout it out, but because the only Soul Skill he could use was this one: summoning a Pokémon.

And he absolutely had to shout this phrase in order to summon.

It was as if this was the underlying logic of his Martial Soul, impossible to change.

The Poké Ball was tossed and opened, and a flash of white light appeared.

A handsome Charmeleon appeared before Chi Hong.

Its claws were long and sharp, and its tail burned with its signature flame.

Its pupils locked onto the enemy, its eyes filled with the desire to battle.

Wang Dong snorted:

"So cruel, actually letting such a small Soul Beast battle me. Mere Soul Master with a hundred-year Soul Ring, you have zero chance of winning against me."

The next instant,

while flapping his wings to fly forward, he executed Wing Blade, slashing out two light blades to attack Charmeleon.

Facing the attack, Chi Hong commanded loudly:

"Charmeleon, use Dodge! Then execute Smokescreen!"

Receiving the command, Charmeleon executed the concept god-skill "Dodge", capable of dodging attacks one hundred percent of the time!

It executed a nimble flip and dodged the light blades.

Before even landing, it rapidly opened its mouth, spewing out a dense cloud of black smoke that covered the entire battle area.

Wang Dong lost sight of Charmeleon, choked on the black smoke entering his nose, and could not help coughing.

In his haste, he immediately executed his second Soul Skill, Butterfly God's Light, wanting to disperse the smokescreen.

Yet just as the light spread, Charmeleon had already brewed its next offensive.

"Now is the time, Charmeleon, use Flamethrower!"

Following the sound of Chi Hong's words, Charmeleon darted out from behind Wang Dong, its mouth holding the fiery glow of scarlet flames.

With a tilt of its dragon head and the opening of its mouth, a fierce pillar of red fire blasted out, slamming onto Wang Dong.

Wang Dong only let out a scream before collapsing to the ground unconscious.

Charmeleon used Flamethrower, hitting a critical hit! Wang Dong went down. You achieved victory in the battle! Acquired a large amount of experience points. Ding-dong! Charmeleon's level increased, and it underwent evolution.

Panel information flashed by, Charmeleon was enveloped by a ball of white light, and its entire body began to grow larger visibly to the naked eye.

Ding-dong! Charmeleon evolved into Charizard, and learned Air Cutter and Wing Attack.

The light scattered, and an imposing and mighty fire dragon made its appearance, two massive and handsome dragon wings stretched out behind its back, and the flame on its tail burned even brighter.

Chi Hong looked at Charizard with glowing eyes.

Owning a real fire dragon as a partner, and even being able to ride it to fly through the skies—this was a scenario that would only exist in dreams in his past life.

As expected of the daughter of the God King and the plot heroine, she actually exploded with this much experience.

Charmeleon directly evolved, and his own level also rose from level seventeen to level nineteen, leaving only a kick away from acquiring his next Pokémon.

Thinking of this, Chi Hong turned his head to look at the dumbfounded Huo Yuhao beside him, revealing an amiable smile:

"Are you going to battle me too?"

Huo Yuhao shuddered, shaking his head violently in refusal.

"No, no, no! I don't like fighting."

He awkwardly said to Wang Dong on the ground, "My roommate seems to be in bad shape, so I need to take good care of him and can't fight with you anymore."

With that, Huo Yuhao immediately picked up Wang Dong and ran away quickly.
