Douluo Continent: A Fallen Immortal Descends to Earth, Slaying Gods with a Drunken Sword

Chapter 480 Goodbye Moon! A Great Opportunity at Shrek Academy (Bonus Chapter)
Shrek Academy.

The midday sun was at its zenith, just as classes were about to begin, and the vast college was unusually quiet.

however.

In this tranquility.

The five figures standing before the majestic gate added to the solemn atmosphere.

When students passing by saw these five people, they immediately lowered their heads and respectfully walked around them.

The leaders were Yan Shaozhe, Dean of the Martial Soul Department, and Xian Lin'er, Dean of the Soul Guidance Department.

Behind the two of them.

Cai Meier, the vice dean of the Martial Soul Department, and Qian Duoduo, the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department, stood side by side.

The gathering of all four deans is a truly rare sight.

They looked up at the distant sky, as if waiting for something.

After a stick of incense.

A black dot appeared on the horizon, gradually becoming clearer and larger.

The team led by Zhang Lexuan landed slowly, their travel-worn appearance barely concealing their sharp edge.

Yan Shaozhe stepped forward with a smile, his gaze sweeping over the crowd before pausing slightly on the blue-robed youth.

"Welcome back, children."

Apart from Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan, who remained calm, Bei Bei and the others could not hide their excitement.

This month.

They witnessed the wonders of the mainland.

now.

Returning to the academy.

An indescribable sense of peace arose spontaneously.

The entrance to the college is not a place for conversation.

Under the leadership of the four deans.

The group arrived at the shore of Poseidon Lake and saw a wooden boat moored on the lake.

"Dean, this is..."

Everyone looked at Yan Shaozhe with suspicion.

"Let's board the ship."

Yan Shaozhe said gently:
"You first went through a perilous bandit suppression operation, and then won the championship in the Soul Master Competition."

"This tournament is of great significance to Shrek Academy, and your awards will be presented on Seagod Island."

This statement came out.

Even Ma Xiaotao and her seven friends looked excited.

Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and the others were so excited that their faces turned red.

Everyone knows that.

Shrek Academy has a supreme sacred place—the Sea God Pavilion, which is the lifeblood of the academy, and all decisions concerning its survival originate from here.

The small boat rocks gently.

Slowly sailing towards the center of the lake.

After traveling for an unknown period of time, the scenery along the shore gradually disappeared into the mist.

And this time.

Suddenly, a thick white fog appeared ahead, and the wooden boat could not see its own hand in front of its face when it entered it.

The wooden boat continued its journey along some mysterious trajectory, as if it were passing through an invisible barrier.

"Wow, such rich life energy!"

Know the sea.

The voice of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm could be heard.

"In my previous life, perhaps my perspective was limited, so I didn't think much of this golden ancient tree."

"It now seems that the life core of this golden ancient tree has probably already touched the edge of godhood."

Electrolux's aged voice rang out.

"In my opinion, this ancient golden tree is the life core of this world."

"Its life essence is connected to all living beings in the entire plane."

"It's not advisable to act rashly."

The bear king, now a spirit, sneered:

“Old man, you don’t know the divine power of the Creator God.”

"It is but a fleeting illusion, yet even if it is destroyed, it can still encompass all living beings."

As they were talking...

The fog receded to both sides like a curtain.

The scene before my eyes suddenly became clear.

A towering ancient tree with a canopy that stretches for dozens of miles stands in the lake, each leaf as if cast in gold, shimmering with golden light in the wind.

Where the gnarled roots of the giant tree intertwine, a three-story wooden building stands quietly, its flying eaves and brackets exuding the charm of millennia past.

The group marveled as they disembarked and stepped onto the island formed by the roots of ancient trees.

Suddenly, I felt a lightness all over my body.

The fatigue accumulated from days of travel vanished in an instant.

The vibrant life force in the air soothed my body like a hot spring. "This is the Sea God Pavilion."

Yan Shaozhe smiled and continued to lead the way, slowly stepping forward and pushing open the half-closed wooden door.

Inside the hall, the furnishings are simple and antique, and the entire building is actually carved from ancient wood.

A dozen or so elderly men sat around the long table.

Even among Ma Xiaotao's Seven Devils, they only knew two or three of them.

Followed by.

The four deans, including Yan Shaozhe, went straight to the last seat and took their seats.

See this scene.

Everyone unconsciously held their breath.

When those weathered gazes swept over, it was as if even the deepest secrets in one's heart could not be hidden.

gradually……

All eyes turned to the silent, blue-robed youth.

Huo Yuhao felt the gaze and calmly raised his eyes to meet those probing eyes.

In an instant.

Within the rich life force, there seemed to be an invisible energy flowing, causing the air in the entire hall to stagnate.

"The news spread faster than you returned."

An elderly man with white hair reaching his shoulders brushed aside his long eyebrows that obscured his eyes, examined Huo Yuhao closely, and slowly said:
"I had heard that the academy had produced a student with a titled rank, which I found hard to believe..."

"Now that I see it for myself, I know the rumors are true."

"I'm just curious, since you're a student of Shrek Academy, why have we never heard of your extraordinary talent?"

"I am not a Shrek Academy student."

The moment those words were spoken.

The atmosphere of the entire Sea God Pavilion froze.

"Since you are not a student of Shrek Academy, why are you representing Shrek Academy in the Soul Master Competition?"

"Poseidon Island has always been open only to elite students of the inner academy. Why have you come here?"

The old man finished speaking.

In the shadows at the far end of the long table.

Suddenly, an old man's laughter rang out.

"Have you, esteemed elders, forgotten what I said earlier?"

"Huo Yuhao is my last disciple, and he is fighting on behalf of the academy at my request."

"Subsequent matters shall proceed according to the established procedures. Meeting adjourned."

The words fell.

The figures of the elderly men in the room gradually faded, disappearing without a trace like morning mist.

"Children, come and talk to me."

The voice from the head of the table came again.

I can tell.

Even Ma Xiaotao and her seven friends were very nervous.

They knew that they were about to face Shrek Academy's top student, the master of the Sea God Pavilion.

The crowd stepped forward.

First, a rattan chair gently rocked, and then a hunched old man slowly got up.

When they saw each other's faces clearly, Wang Dong and Xu Sanshi's eyes widened.

"You...you're not..."

"That's right, it's that old man who lies at the entrance of the boys' dormitory all day long."

Mu En stroked his beard and chuckled.

"Seeing you children so full of energy every day makes this old man feel a few years younger."

He looked at everyone and said gently:
"Your performance in this Soul Master Competition was commendable."

"Xiao Tao, the seven of you are about to graduate."

“You may stay at the university to teach, or be recommended by the college, or follow your family’s arrangements.”

"For your contributions in the competition, you are granted permission to each select a matching soul bone from the Soul Bone Treasury."

"Thank you, Pavilion Master!"

Ma Xiaotao and the other six quickly bowed in respect.

Followed by.

They left with the four deans.

Only Huo Yuhao and six others remained in the hall.

"Those elites of the inner court who make great contributions will be granted the opportunity to cultivate under the Golden Ancient Tree."

"Although you have not officially entered the inner academy, you can all be admitted through this Soul Master Competition."

"Once Xiao Tao and the others graduate, they will inherit the name of the Shrek Seven Devils."

"Thank you... thank you, Pavilion Master!"

The six of them, including Beibei, trembled with excitement.

Mu En nodded slightly, his kind gaze finally settling on Huo Yuhao, who was standing quietly to the side.
