Douluo: The Thousand-Faced Angel in the Dragon King

Chapter 26 Arriving at Shrek Academy, Reuniting with the Beauty

Shrek City, the largest city on the Douluo Continent and the largest city in the Federation. It was built by Shrek Academy, which is known as the number one academy on the continent. However, not only is Shrek Academy located here, but the headquarters of two super powers, Tang Sect and Spirit Pagoda, are also located here, giving Shrek City a pivotal economic and political position in the Federation.

Shrek City is divided into an outer city and an inner city. The residents of Shrek City live in the outer city, while the inner city belongs entirely to Shrek Academy and is not open to non-Shrek Academy members.

Today is the day of Shrek Academy's Inner Court Examination. The Inner Court Examination is extremely rigorous; outsiders who wish to participate must first have an Inner Court Examination slot provided by Shrek Academy.

Having a spot in the Inner Academy assessment allows you to participate in the Inner Academy assessment. Passing the assessment grants direct entry into the Inner Academy; failing the assessment allows you to enter the Outer Academy without further examination.

Therefore, as long as there is an inner court examination slot, one is guaranteed admission to Shrek Academy. Hence, inner court examination slots are extremely valuable; Shrek Academy only offers fifty slots each year, and very few pass.

Today, a soul-guided car bearing the emblem of the Holy Angels family drove into Shrek City, passed through the bustling streets, and stopped in front of the inner city gate of Shrek.

The car door opened, and a handsome young man with black hair and black eyes got out of the car.

The boy had a smile on his lips, a noble air about him, and a faintly sacred aura about him.

She wore a silver scale pendant around her neck and a white trench coat. The trench coat was exquisitely crafted, adorned with gold threads forming intricate and beautiful patterns. When a gentle breeze blew across the lapels, it appeared as if an angel made of gold threads was fluttering its wings.

The boy looked up at the words "Shrek Academy" hanging on the tall city gate and couldn't help but sigh.

After more than nine years of time travel, I, Qianmo, have finally arrived at Shrek Academy, the place that runs through the original story.

Half a year has passed, and Qianmo has arrived at Shrek Academy as promised. But will the other person keep their promise to him?

Qianmo's gaze swept around, finally stopping when he caught sight of the silver-haired girl he had been longing for.

The silver-haired girl wore a red cross pendant around her neck, her silver hair cascading down naturally. She was dressed in a silver outfit, looking quite dashing.

Gu Yuena, who was resting with her eyes closed in the corner, opened her eyes as if sensing something, and her purple eyes met Qian Mo's deep black eyes.

A deep longing welled up in their hearts, and the two of them couldn't help but reveal a bright smile from the bottom of their hearts.

Upon seeing the beauty he had longed for, Qian Mo tried his best to suppress his excitement and strode towards Gu Yuena with great enthusiasm.

A myriad of emotions welled up in my heart, and a thousand words were finally reduced to one sentence.

"Long time no see, Na'er!"

"Long time no see, Amo!" Gu Yuena's lips twitched slightly, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she finally uttered these simple words, which contained deep longing.

After pouring out their hearts to each other and expressing their deep longing, their heated thoughts calmed down, and they began to inquire about each other's recent situation.

"How have you been since you returned to your family?" Qianmo asked, pretending not to know the truth about Gu Yuena's situation.

Gu Yuena pretended to be calm and said without changing her expression, "My family has been very good to me. They are all very happy about my return, and some are even in tears."

"And you?" Gu Yuena quickly changed the subject after telling a simple lie.

"Me?" Qian Mo raised an eyebrow and said fluently, "Except for the times I miss you, everything is fine. My cultivation is going very smoothly. I am already a level 28 Great Soul Master. I am proficient in all kinds of weapons, and I have also mastered soul tools, forging, mecha manufacturing, and so on. I can be called the most versatile and outstanding genius on the continent."

"Hmph," Gu Yuena blushed and snorted coldly, "You've become even more shameless in the past six months."

"How can you be shameless? I'm just stating the facts," Qianmo emphasized.

"Alright, alright, you're the strongest, you're the number one genius, it's time to go participate in the inner academy assessment." Gu Yuena said helplessly, then pulled Qian Mo towards the entrance of Shrek Academy.

"Hey, wait a minute," Qian Mo tugged at Gu Yuena, asking curiously, "The inner court assessment requires a quota, do you have one?"

"Yes, my teacher gave it to me," Gu Yuena replied.

Qianmo thought about the original plot and asked, "Who is your teacher?"

Gu Yuena pursed her lips and said softly, "The deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda is Leng Yaozhu."

As expected, Gu Yuena ultimately chose to join the Spirit Pagoda, just like in the original story, and became Leng Yaozhu's student.

"Four-word Battle Armor Master, Heavenly Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu," Qian Mo said.

Gu Yuena nodded and affirmed, "That's right, it's not for keeping the appointment. I asked my teacher to help me get a spot in the inner court assessment."

Within the Spirit Pagoda, Leng Yaozhu's faction has a reasonably good relationship with Shrek Academy, so securing a spot shouldn't be a problem.

Qian Mo snapped his fingers and said arrogantly, "Now that everything is ready, let's set off and reorganize Shrek Academy."

Two young men in dark green uniforms were guarding the city gate.

"We're here to participate in the inner court assessment," Qianmo and Gu Yuena each handed over a hexagonal metal plaque.

The latest novel is first published here!

The metal badge is a temporary entry permit for Shrek's inner city, specially issued to facilitate students who come to take the exam.

One of the young men walked over and scanned the metal badges of the two men with a device. After confirming that there were no problems, he stepped aside and said with a smile, "Please follow the signs to the main teaching building of the outer college to receive your assessment. I wish you both the best of luck in your assessment."

"Thank you!" Qianmo replied politely, and walked into the long-renowned Shrek Inner City with Gu Yuena.

The two strolled along the wide, antique cobblestone streets and arrived at a huge square.

Surrounding the square is a large circle of ancient buildings, forming a semi-circle, with various full-body human figures carved on them.

A statue of Huo Yuhao, the Spirit Ice Douluo, stands in the fountain in the center of the square, which is also named Spirit Ice Square after Huo Yuhao's title.

Qian Mo gazed intently at Huo Yuhao's statue, her tone calm yet domineering.

"I will far surpass him, without a doubt!"

"I believe you," Gu Yuena's cool voice rang in my ears.

The two smiled at each other and walked together toward the huge circular building in front of them, which was the main teaching building of the outer college.

At this time, the inner court examination had not yet begun, the main teaching building was not yet open, and there were scattered little soul masters waiting outside the gate to participate in the inner court examination.

The teaching building is surrounded by a large area of ​​greenery and flowerbeds, among which stand small pavilions.

Qianmo and Gu Yuena found a secluded pavilion and sat down next to each other to rest, waiting for the assessment to begin.
