Chapter 374 The Legend of the Peach Blossom Forest
"Teacher, who exactly is this Director Tao? You seem to be quite interested in him."

Under the starry night, on the rooftop of Shrek Academy's Hall of Fame, a middle-aged man pushed a wheelchair and stood overlooking the entire Shrek Academy.

In the wheelchair sat an elderly man dressed in a white robe, who looked quite frail.

But the white-robed old man's deep eyes pierced through the night and landed on Su Ran, who was leisurely strolling around the academy.

This white-robed elder was none other than Mu En, one of the two deans of Shrek Academy and a Limit Douluo powerhouse.

Moon said in a deep voice:
"Shao Zhe, don't underestimate him. This Director Tao's identity is very mysterious."

Yan Shaozhe stared intently, then exclaimed in surprise:
"Master Tao has no soul power fluctuations, and I have never seen him make a move. He is just like an ordinary person who is idle every day. Could it be that he is hiding a strength that even I cannot see through?"

"He looks like a young man, he can't possibly have a soul power level above 95, right?"

Upon hearing Yan Shaozhe's words, Mu En turned around and looked at him in astonishment:
"Do you know what the librarian, Director Momo, looked like when I was your age?"

Yan Shaozhe thought for a moment:
"Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been born yet."

"Do not."

Moon spoke in a deep voice, his eyes seemingly reflecting scenes from the past:

"It was a rainy night. At that time, because I came from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, I was considered inferior and suffered the scorn and contempt of my classmates."

“A young man carrying an oil-paper umbrella walked out from the depths of the academy. His face was always shrouded in a thin mist, making it difficult for me to see his appearance clearly. He was mysterious, but he was the only one who did not look down on me because of my identity.”

"On the contrary, it encouraged me and pulled me out of the mire."

“He told me that the shame of our ancestors is the past, and our descendants represent the past and the future. As long as I have light in my heart, I can move forward without hesitation.”

"This sentence has sustained me all the way to the Sea God Pavilion, and I have worked hard to uphold the honor of Shrek Academy until today."

After Moon finished speaking, Yan Shaozhe was extremely shocked:
"Teacher, do you mean that this Director Tao is the young man who encouraged you back then? And that his appearance has never changed in the past one or two hundred years?"

"I don't know, but the college library is a mysterious place."

"It is said that every librarian of the library is appointed by Master Su from the Peach Blossom Forest, and the position is changed every three hundred years."

"Three hundred years is the lifespan of a peak Douluo to a limit Douluo."

"And this Master Tao... he wasn't assigned; he... he just came from the peach grove."

As he spoke, Moon's voice trembled slightly. That was the Peach Blossom Forest, not only the sacred ground of Shrek Academy, but also the place of his hope!
"It is said that the library contains most of the complete manuals of the secret techniques passed down by Master Su. They have been lying there, waiting for a destined person to unlock them."

"Including the Seven Treasures Golden Bell Shield of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School's founder, the Ten Kings of Hell of the Nine Netherworlds Douluo, the Life and Death Withering Technique of the Immortal Physician Douluo, and the Wind God Leg of the Wind God Douluo..."

"For thousands of years, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the royal families of several great empires have never given up trying to enter the library to search for books, but they have basically returned empty-handed."

"However, recently, a third-grade student actually found one of the fragments of the acupoint striking technique of the ancient ancestor."

Moon sat in his wheelchair, speaking quietly, but his surprise was undeniable.

Yan Shaozhe pondered for a moment: "Are you talking about the girl who just returned the book with Director Tao?"

Moon nodded and said:

“That’s right. I’ve been keeping an eye on the library all these years. She’s the only person recently to have found a fragment of the ancestral master’s martial arts manual in the library. The acupoint striking technique of Ancestor Mu has the effect of controlling the human body’s muscles and bones and regulating the human body’s meridians.”

"The foot massage manual she found is the section on acupressure and warming of acupoints in the foot. As the saying goes, all the tendons and veins converge in the foot. If I am not mistaken, this is also the basic method of acupressure."

"So, this librarian, Director Tao, can find the library's secret techniques?!"

Yan Shaozhe said excitedly:

"So, this Master Tao is very likely a disciple of Immortal Master Su! That is, our little patriarch?!"

"With the help of the young patriarch, what are the Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult worth? If we could find the martial arts of our ancestors, wouldn't that be wonderful!"

"Yes, if the complete version of the Peach Blossom Spring Secret Technique were available, the Holy Spirit Cult would find it difficult to cause trouble, especially since Ancestor Ye's life, death, prosperity, and decline are the nemesis of evil soul masters."

Moon sighed.

It's not that Shrek Academy is too weak, but rather that the Holy Spirit Cult of today did not originate from the City of Slaughter ten thousand years ago, but rather from the foot of that divine mountain ten thousand years ago.

"However, all of this is just our speculation. Whether he is a disciple of Master Su, a student of the ancestors of Peach Blossom Spring, or just a servant in the Peach Blossom Forest... it's all uncertain."

"Besides, no one can force the people in Peach Blossom Forest to do anything, not even you or me. Everything depends on their own will." Even Mu En felt helpless.

Shrek Academy is now a top-tier Soul Master Academy across the entire continent, renowned far and wide, and boasts several Title Douluos.

However, Shrek has an extremely mysterious place.

That's a peach blossom grove.

Even Moon considers the Peach Blossom Forest an inviolable sacred ground. Anyone who comes out of it is unshakeable by Shrek Academy. This is Shrek Academy's ironclad rule and the condition for Shrek Academy to stand to this day.

……

"Peach blossom grove?"

How do I get to the peach blossom grove?

There's no sign indicating this place is a peach blossom grove.

"I don't even know where the peach blossom forest is, how am I supposed to find that Immortal Master Su?"

Outside the student dormitory at Shrek Academy, Tang Wutong lingered under the streetlights, looking at the map of Shrek Academy in the center of the square, feeling somewhat melancholy.

She had already become very interested in this Immortal Master Su when her father mentioned him in the God Realm.

When she arrived at Shrek Academy and heard the stories about the ancestors of Peach Blossom Spring, she became even more curious.

The problem is that she has no chance to see Master Su now, and she can't even find the place.

However, Tang Wutong did not disguise herself as a man when she enrolled this time; instead, she joined the academy as a woman.

Her roommate is a little girl.

At this moment, a petite and pretty little girl came out of the dormitory. Seeing Tang Wutong's anxious expression, she jumped out from the side and startled her.
"Hey, Wu Tong, what are you thinking about? It's not nice to look so gloomy on your first day of school!"

Tang Wutong was startled and patted her chest:
"Xiao Xiao, you scared me to death! Weren't you going to sleep?"

"Yeah, yeah, but I can't sleep. This is Shrek Academy, the most powerful Soul Master Academy on the entire continent! I wonder what we'll learn in class tomorrow!"

"Sigh, whatever I learn, it's definitely not something Master Su taught me."

Tang Wutong leaned against the railing, her small hands supporting her delicate face, her mind filled with thoughts of the faceless statue.

Just how handsome does one have to be to be so unattractive that no sculptor in the entire continent can recreate their likeness?

"Of course! Master Su is a legendary figure. Only those who become the most outstanding students at Shrek Academy can have the opportunity to attend classes in the Peach Blossom Forest."

Xiao Xiao looked at the moonlight in the sky, her eyes filled with longing for the peach blossom forest.

However, a smile quickly appeared on her face, and she said to Tang Wutong:

"If we cultivate diligently, perhaps we'll have that opportunity?!"

"Really? As long as you become one of Shrek's most outstanding students, you'll have the chance to go to the Peach Blossom Forest?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wutong's pupils lit up.

Xiao Xiao nodded: "That's right. I heard that defeating the Sun Moon Empire in the Soul Master Competition and winning the championship is a great achievement and can earn you an honor from the academy."

"But that's very difficult! It's the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Tournament!"

"Alright, it's decided. Let's aim for the championship of the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Tournament!"

Xiao Xiao never expected that Tang Wutong would take her casual words of encouragement seriously!

Tang Wutong exuded a confident charm under the moonlight, she was absolutely stunning!

How can this girl be so confident?

Just then, a voice came from under the railing:
"Teacher Xiaoya, is there something wrong with the Xuan Tian Gong you taught me?"

Why do I feel so uncomfortable all over after learning this?
