A Whole Family Marrying Soul Beasts

Bibi Dong understood too, and picked up where Tang Fan had left off. "So Tang San was the heaven's chosen one Shrek Academy needed?"

"That's right. Speaking of which, those forty-two geniuses who were tricked into joining Shrek Academy didn't even get their names mentioned in the book. They really had it rough.

"If all forty-two had received proper training, one or two of them might have become Titled Douluo."

Bibi Dong agreed. Geniuses selected through such stringent requirements did have a chance of reaching the Titled Douluo rank.

"Speaking of which, the Star Luo Emperor really ought to thank Shrek Academy."

"Hm? Why?"

"Because Shrek Academy was in Suotuo City. Those forty-two people whose potential it ruined were all geniuses from the Heaven Dou Empire."

On Douluo Continent, Xue Ye could no longer sit still after hearing Tang Fan's quip.

"Guards! Investigate them for me. Whether it's Shrek Academy or that Flender, get to the bottom of everything."

Flender shuddered too. He had also realized that, after Tang Fan said that, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family would never let him off.

"No! I have to run!"

Flender decided to flee to the Star Luo Empire, but the Star Luo Emperor wouldn't welcome him either, much less want Shrek Academy appearing on his own soil.

So the Star Luo Emperor took a more direct approach and issued a warrant for Flender's arrest.

He really was unlucky. He hadn't even done anything yet, and already both empires wanted him.

Bibi Dong, meanwhile, wore a look of regret.

"They were Soul Masters from commoner backgrounds too, weren't they? It was a loss for Spirit Hall as well. A fraudulent academy like Shrek Academy should have been thoroughly investigated."

"In fact, Spirit Hall bears some responsibility for Shrek Academy being able to fool people."

"Huh? What does that have to do with Spirit Hall?"

"Shrek Academy publicly claimed that its most outstanding graduate had become Spirit Hall's youngest elder.

"The Spirit Hall Branch in Suotuo City let Shrek Academy make those claims unchecked, which led many people to believe them without thinking."

"Spirit Hall's youngest elder? How shameless can they get?!

"Even the lowest-ranking elder in Spirit Hall is a Titled Douluo. If Shrek Academy had really trained a young Titled Douluo, it would have become famous long ago.

"And what was going on with the Spirit Hall Branch in Suotuo City? Had it been bought off?"

"That's possible. It's also possible they couldn't tell whether it was true or not themselves, so they chose to stay silent.

"But it's also a fact that Spirit Hall's corruption accelerated while Bibi Dong was its Pope in the book."

"How did this come back to me again?"

Bibi Dong pursed her lips unhappily.

"It can't be helped. When talking about Spirit Hall, you're someone we can't get around."

"What happened after that, then? Did Shrek Academy really soar to the heavens once Tang San, the protagonist, joined?"

"That's how it turned out. In the year Tang San enrolled, Shrek Academy recruited seven people in total, and five of them had extraordinary backgrounds."

"What backgrounds?"

"There's no need to say much about the protagonist Tang San. He also brought along his sworn younger sister, Xiao Wu, a hundred-thousand-year transformed Soul Beast who later became his wife."

"A hundred-thousand-year transformed Soul Beast! Why is it another hundred-thousand-year transformed Soul Beast?"

"Heh, the Tang family all seem to have a taste for them. It wasn't just Tang Hao and Tang San; Tang San's son also married a transformed Soul Beast, and so did his grandson. He married a transformed Soul Beast too."

"Were the children born to their family afterward still human?"

"I don't know. In any case, Tang San's grandson hatched from an egg."

Bibi Dong was speechless.

The reaction on Douluo Continent was naturally even greater. Tang Hao's father, whose health had only just improved, fainted from anger again.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian's expression was rather peculiar too.

Everyone Tang San's family married was a Soul Beast. Did that count as a victory for the Soul Beasts?

If Di Tian knew that Tang San's son had married his master, he might go straight to the Clear Sky Sect and destroy Tang San's spawn point.

Tang Xiao, who was hurrying back to the Clear Sky Sect, looked at his younger brother Tang Hao beside him and didn't know what to say.

He thought to himself, Can a fetish like that be inherited too?

Tang Fan added, "Oh, right. In the book, you were also the one who killed Xiao Wu's mother."

"Heh, doesn't that just give Tang San one more reason to fight me?"

"That's right. You understood it perfectly."

Rumble! A burst of thunder suddenly sounded, and raindrops came pattering down right afterward.

Tang Fan went to the window and looked at the heavy rain outside, shaking his head helplessly.

"Summer rain really does come without warning. Sorry, but today's plans may have to go down the drain."

"It's all right. If we can't go out, just tell me more about Douluo Continent."

"Mm, all right. Let's continue with Shrek Academy.

"Besides Tang San and Xiao Wu, there was also a boy and a girl from the Dai Family and the Zhu Family of the Star Luo Imperial Family in their year. They were Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, respectively.

"The Star Luo Imperial Family's method of selecting an heir was extremely cruel. To save his life, Dai Mubai left Star Luo City for Suotuo City and joined Shrek Academy.

"Zhu Zhuqing, who had been engaged to Dai Mubai since childhood, also fled Star Luo City to find him when she was twelve."

"So they were a pair of ill-fated lovebirds."

"Ill-fated lovebirds? No. In the years Dai Mubai spent in Suotuo City, he never lacked women at his side. If Zhu Zhuqing hadn't appeared before him, he would have long since forgotten he even had a fiancée named Zhu Zhuqing."

"Huh? This Dai Mubai was actually such a scumbag!"

"What kind of good person could a fallen prince who fled for his life be?

"Tang San's year was known as the Shrek Seven Devils: four men and three women. Apart from the protagonist Tang San, the other three men were all whoremongers to varying degrees."

"Whoremongers?"

"Regulars in the pleasure houses."

"Pah! Tang San called those people his brothers, so how good could he be? I'm afraid he did plenty of that in private too."

The young noblemen on Douluo Continent strongly agreed with this. The more respectable someone looked on the surface, the wilder they were in private.

At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Bone Douluo said to Ning Fengzhi, "Fengzhi, your daughter was one of the Shrek Seven Devils too, wasn't she..."

Ning Fengzhi's expression darkened at the thought of his daughter mixing with that crowd.

"If I do have a daughter, she must be strictly disciplined. Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, neither of you can interfere."

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo both nodded their agreement.

Tang Fan gestured for Bibi Dong to calm down.

"In the book, Tang San was portrayed as pure as ice and clean as jade, but some parts of that portrayal were a little disgusting.

"For example, Tang San's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track could evade an enemy's fierce attacks, but it couldn't evade a girl's lips when she leaned in to kiss him."

"Hm? What do you mean?"

"There was a scene in the book where Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong each kissed one of Tang San's cheeks to thank him.

"Zhu Zhuqing's fiancé Dai Mubai and Oscar, who liked Ning Rongrong, watched from the side. The two of them even thought it was only natural."
