Arrival at the Military Camp

After a long journey, the sky had become somewhat dark. Seeing this, Xuan Zi found a place for everyone to set up camp and rest there for the night.

Originally, dinner was supposed to be prepared by Huo Yuhao, the master chef, but because of his conversation with Dai Yueheng, Huo Yuhao was completely dispirited and had no motivation to cook.

However, none of the people present wanted to eat those hard and unpalatable dry rations, so dinner had to be left to Xu Xingyu and Jiang Nannan, who knew how to cook.

After all, everyone present knew how to cook, except for the two of them. The former was a skill that the Blue Star Group had practiced for college students living away from home in their previous life, and the latter had learned it when they needed to take care of their deceased mother.

Fortunately, the two cooks were quite good, and everyone present was very satisfied with the meal. Among them, Xuan Zi specially packed some food to take home for the journey.

After resting for a night, the group set off again. Midway, Xuan Zi saw that they were almost there and also felt that they were traveling too slowly, so he dragged them to their destination at an extremely fast pace for two consecutive hours.

That was the western border of the Star Luo Empire.

At this moment, apart from Xuan Zi, who was the instigator, everyone in the Shrek group started to vomit due to the high-speed flight. Even the powerful ones, such as Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng, were no exception, while the weaker ones, such as Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao, had already started to vomit.

After vomiting for a few minutes, everyone finally recovered. Seeing this, Xuan Zi instructed Dai Yueheng to prepare to receive the Star Luo Empire who had noticed the commotion he had caused.

After all, this happens to be the father's camp, so it's fine to leave the preparations to my student.

Soon after, the personnel belonging to the Star Luo Empire army arrived at the group's location. Thanks to Dai Yueheng's connections, they were allowed to pass smoothly and were led by the soldiers to the Star Luo Empire army camp.

On the way Dai Yueheng introduced the legion stationed here to everyone. They were the White Tiger Guards, the most elite White Tiger Guards under the White Tiger Duke, who obeyed only the orders of the White Tiger Duke. They were essentially the Duke's Mansion guards.

Not only are all members of the White Tiger Guards at least Soul Elder Soul Master, but they also need at least three generations of their family to serve in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion to become a guard. Therefore, they are impeccable in both strength and loyalty.

The White Tiger Guards number only five hundred, but these five hundred are the White Tiger Duke's greatest trump card. Each of them is equipped with various Soul Tool. These five hundred White Tiger Guards always follow the White Tiger Duke; wherever the White Tiger Duke is, they are there too. They receive the best treatment, and each of them even has their own residence within the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. This shows how much the White Tiger Duke values them.

This reminded Xu Xingyu that her grandfather also had similar personal guards, only not on the same scale as the White Tiger Duke's.

It seems that White Tiger Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger clan truly possessed formidable military prowess.

Training such an army requires not only a large amount of resources, but also a significant amount of time and effort that cannot be accomplished in just one or two months.

It can only be said that the White Tiger Family truly lives up to its reputation as the original royal family of the Star Luo Empire. Even after losing the throne, their resources and connections are unmatched by ordinary people.

Soon, the group arrived at White Tiger Duke's tent, where they saw a man practicing his fist techniques in an open space in front of the tent, exuding an aura of terrifying power. It was a powerful combination of strong cultivation and killing intent.

The man did not unleash his Martial Soul; his movements were simple and concise, but with each punch he threw, a muffled explosion would inevitably resound in the air.

Only after they had completely landed near the main tent did they get a clear look at the man.

The man had long, blond hair similar to Dai Yueheng's that fluttered in the air. His bare upper body revealed a muscular, bronze physique, and his tall stature was nearly two meters.

He looked to be in his thirties, with regular features, deep-set eyes, and a pair of bright eyes in each of his azure pupils.

His face looked slightly thin, but he had a metallic quality about him.

His gaze, in particular, flashed like a giant blade the moment it swept over, causing everyone from the Shrek Academy to involuntarily stop in their tracks.

However, the moment her gaze fell upon Huo Yuhao, her expression became complicated, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

He is none other than the current leader of the White Tiger Clan, White Tiger Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger White Tiger Family! He is the Imperial Marshal, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army Group, and also the commander of the Central Legion of the Western Army Group, personally appointed by His Majesty the Emperor.

Handsome, resolute, and upright—these are the best words to describe this man, who exudes a tough and resolute aura, when you first meet him.

Sensing the arrival of the Shrek Devils, the man slowly withdrew his fist and his imposing aura, which resembled that of a descending tiger, and turned to face the group.

What they had just witnessed left these Shrek Academy prodigies feeling a chill run down their spines and a sense of submission.

They originally thought they were among the more powerful Soul Master on the Douluo Continent, but what they just witnessed truly made them realize that there are always people more powerful than themselves, and that there is always something beyond their understanding.

Xu Xingyu and Xu Yanxue, who had already seen the world's truly top-tier experts, felt nothing.

After all, the former had faced Tang San's clone before, and the latter, as the Snow Empress, one of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far North, had also endured many hardships and fought against countless powerful figures.

Although the White Tiger Duke in front of them was powerful, and even someone of the same level might not be able to defeat him, in their eyes he could not be considered to be among the top group of strong individuals.

However, it cannot be denied that White Tiger Duke is indeed not someone that the two of them can deal with without using their life-saving abilities.

Seeing this, Dai Yueheng also stepped forward, quickly knelt on one knee before the tall man, and respectfully said, "Father."

White Tiger Duke nodded in agreement, gesturing for the other party to stand up and speak. He then smiled and addressed the Shrek students, saying, "Welcome, Teacher Wang Yan, and all the outstanding students of the Shrek Academy."

In response, everyone quickly greeted the Duke, saying, "Greetings, Your Excellency."

What no one knew was that when Dai Yueheng called out "Father," Huo Yuhao, who was at the end of the group, had already begun to feel resentful.

The man before her was her father, the same scoundrel who had betrayed her mother!

Perhaps this is a hero belonging to the Star Luo Empire! But he is definitely not a hero to himself and his mother!

!

Seeing Huo Yuhao's extremely hostile attitude, White Tiger Duke felt a pang of guilt, as he had been paying attention to Huo Yuhao Dai Hao along.

But he quickly composed himself. After all, family matters were better discussed privately; wasn't he afraid of being laughed at for doing something like this in front of guests?

Therefore, after the explanation, everyone followed White Tiger Duke to their military camp.
