Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 313 Testing the Golden Tree (Bonus Chapter)
At this moment, all the members of the Shrek team landed, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

Even Chen Ping felt a surge of pride and a complex mix of emotions, as he finally reached shore after months of wandering.

First, he killed mountain bandits, then he fought to the death with the Evil Soul Douluo, and then he used his position to create an invincible image at the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament.

Chen Ping has experienced so much and is exhausted in the past month or so.

"Welcome home, kids."

Yan Shaozhe and his three companions strode forward to greet them.

The four first bowed to Elder Xuan, and then came before the Shrek team members who had returned in glory.

Yan Shaozhe was alright; he simply patted Ma Xiaotao's shoulder heavily and said earnestly, "Xiaotao, your master was wrong. Soul tools are great; our Martial Soul Department should use them more often in the future."

Qian Duoduo was even more direct, spreading out his incredibly strong arms and giving Chen Ping a heavy hug.

"You brat, you've made quite a name for yourself out there. I can make you look good even at the academy!"

At this moment, Qian Duoduo's broad and solid fortress-like figure collided with Chen Ping's incredibly sturdy body, which was hidden beneath his robes. Their solid chests slammed together, producing a loud bang.

"Damn, you've really grown taller! I thought you were still that little guy. Hmm, not bad, your strength has improved too, hahahaha."

Looking at Chen Ping, who had grown even taller after playing for almost two months, Qian Duoduo, who was over two meters tall, smiled with satisfaction.

The two hugged tightly, especially Chen Ping. Just by looking at the muscles tattooed on his arms, you could tell that Chen Ping had given it his all, telling Qian Duoduo how much he had improved since his trip.

Those muscles, that height, that strength that could break bones—that's what a student with so much money should look like!

After a long while, Chen Ping regretfully released his embrace, having failed to break two of Qian Duoduo's bones.

Qian Duoduo, meanwhile, subtly rubbed her ribs and gasped.

Damn, this kid's strength has increased way too fast!
If a few more years pass, I wonder if this brat will actually break my bones? That would be so embarrassing!

The four deans shook hands with everyone and then personally led them back to the academy.

When we arrived at the clear Poseidon Lake, several small boats were already waiting on the shore.

"Dean Yan, this..."

Beibei's expression of shock was indescribable, as were the others.

Seeing the surprised faces of the crowd, Yan Shaozhe said, "You participated in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament with a depleted formation and won the final championship. This achievement will be forever recorded in the history of Shrek Academy."

"As decided by the Sea God Pavilion meeting, your rewards will be distributed within the Sea God Pavilion."

This made Chen Ping unconsciously excited, as he had never been there before.

Although by the time of Douluo Continent III, the only being inside the Golden Tree was already Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor.

But Chen Ping felt that there were still a full 10,000 years between the time of the Battle of the Three Kingdoms and the time of the Golden Tree. At this time, the Golden Tree was probably not completely taken over by the cuckoo.
At least he hasn't been exposed to Tang San's sight yet, so taking this opportunity to get in touch with the Golden Ancient Tree isn't a bad thing.

He might be able to figure out whether the Golden Tree at this stage has actually been taken over by Ah Yin.

Although his memory of Ah Yin during the Douluo Continent III era was that she was sent to Douluo Star by Tang San to take care of Tang Wulin and concentrate resources to restore the entire Douluo Star so that it wouldn't collapse due to excessive human exploitation, and at the same time, to plot the annexation of the Abyss Plane, Tang San helped Tang Hao become the master of the Douluo Star Plane, while Ah Yin merged into the Golden Ancient Tree of Shrek Academy, becoming the life core of the plane.

However, Chen Ping felt that this thing was not very reliable.

After all, this explanation sounds a bit too harsh, as if I did it out of helplessness, and it carries a hint of trying to cover up the truth.

Without investigation, one has no right to speak. Even from this perspective, Chen Ping is bound to make a trip to Poseidon Island.

Poseidon Lake is very large, much larger than the rest of Shrek Academy combined.

After a quarter of an hour's journey, passing through the mist, Poseidon Island, with an area of ​​approximately two square kilometers, came into view.

Stepping onto Seagod Island and wandering through the paths hidden among tall vegetation, the feeling of being enveloped by countless rich life forces is wonderful, and I feel completely relaxed.

Before long, the group had reached the center of Poseidon Island, where a pavilion came into view.

It was a three-story building that stood out as one, its body brown in color, exuding a rustic charm and a sense of history.

However, directly above its first-floor entrance, a black plaque hangs above it, with three large gilded characters indicating its identity: Sea God Pavilion.

As Chen Ping approached this place, he could feel the surging life force emanating from it. This ancient golden tree in front of him truly deserved to be a core of life!

If we say that the Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin in its 100,000-year-old soul beast form could condense even less living gold than the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, it would only be about half a drop of liquefied living gold.

The life force within that ancient golden tree at this moment is probably no less than, or even greater than, that large piece of living gold the size of a washbasin beneath the Lake of Life.

With such terrifying vitality, given enough time, it could recreate a super soul beast forest that rivals the Star Dou Forest.

This made Chen Ping even more suspicious of the timing of Ah Yin's occupation of the Golden Tree.

After all, neither the second season of Douluo Continent nor the Legend of the Gods season mentioned the existence of these two people in the original work.

At this moment, the gap between the Golden Ancient Tree and the Blue Silver Emperor was like that between a firefly and the bright moon. This made Chen Ping wonder if Ah Yin really had no choice but to replace the Golden Ancient Tree and become the life core of Douluo Star with a wronged expression.

"Come in." An old voice sounded, and then a scene that shocked everyone appeared.

Right in front of them, the three-story Sea God Pavilion, which had been completely inconspicuous just moments before, suddenly lit up without warning.

A brilliant golden light burst forth, turning the entire building completely golden, as if it were a pavilion built of pure gold.

A rich, soft golden light drifted down, enveloping everyone. A warm, profound aura of light nourished each of them.

So cool!

Chen Ping, lacking any formal education, came up with these two words.

At this moment, amidst that rich and pure aura of light, he subconsciously accelerated the circulation of his soul power.

The rich aura of light flowed into his body, nourishing Chen Ping's weary body. In just a few breaths, it swept away the almost unbearable fatigue that had been plaguing Chen Ping's body.
