Douluo Continent: Shrek Prince, Getting to the Root of the Matter

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong blushed, spat, and said disdainfully:

"Ugh~ Why are you talking so disgustingly? What do you mean by kneeling down to serve you...?"

In short, stop bragging. I admit you're very strong, but this is Shrek Academy. Who can do anything wrong here? Even if you said that old man at the door was a Limit Douluo, that would be more convincing!

Yu Wudao smiled but remained silent.

Wang Dong then added smugly, "And do you even know who I am?"

She put her hands on her hips, her neck seemingly reaching for the sky, and that proud feeling resurfaced, like a majestic white goose.

"Little brat~ I may not be as good as you in terms of strength for now, but do you think I can't compare to you in terms of background?"

The two of them bickered and argued as they walked toward the cafeteria.

……

"Soldier—"

In a blacksmith's shop in Shrek City, a handsome young man with a refined and scholarly appearance was hammering away at the metal in front of him.

It was Beibei who was forging the hidden weapons.

Logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't require Beibei to waste her time personally, but Tang Ya insisted that it couldn't be outsourced, saying that she had to eliminate any possibility of the Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons being leaked.

Currently, Bei Bei's soul power cultivation is not high, and hidden weapons are considered one of the more important components of his regular combat strength.

Despite Yu Wudao's repeated claims that he relied on external forces and looked down on hidden weapons.

Furthermore, Bei Bei himself understands that hidden weapons are outdated, but he cannot ignore them if he wants to revive the Tang Clan. Moreover, if even he doesn't value hidden weapons, then not only will the Tang Clan not be revived, but the damage he would cause to Tang Ya would be enormous.

"Bebe!"

Just then, a familiar female voice rang out from outside the shop.

When Beibei heard the familiar voice, he looked up and saw a stunningly beautiful woman standing at the shop entrance, looking at him with gentle eyes.

"Senior Sister? What brings you here!"

The woman bent down and went around the curtain, her heavy breasts swaying as she did so, her full hips captivating.

"I'm going to lead a few junior students on a Soul Hunt in a bit, and I'll probably be away from the academy for at most half a month."

I was going to say goodbye to you both at the outer courtyard, but neither of you happened to be there. I ran into Xu Sanshi on the way and he said, "Since you're here, I came over."

Beibei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He was currently forging a hidden weapon made of a rare metal alloy.

The stove was very hot, and even he found it hard to stand the stuffy heat.

"Senior Sister, you're the only one..."

Beibei didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear.

The minimum standard for Soul Masters in Shrek Academy's Inner Court to hunt Soul Beasts is six Soul Rings, which is a 20,000-year Soul Ring! And Shrek Academy requires a considerable number of students to hunt Soul Rings each time, which means they have to hunt at least multiple 20,000-year Soul Beasts!

Zhang Lexuan rolled her eyes and frowned, saying, "Looking down on your older sister? Beibei, you've been so busy with your little girlfriend lately, you didn't even know?"

"I already reached the eighth ring six months ago, and it's a 100,000-year spirit ring!"

Thanks to the Ten Thousand Year Flower and Grass given to her by Yu Wudao, Zhang Lexuan advanced to the eighth ring six months earlier than in the original story. And to ensure everything went smoothly, Yu Wudao specially went back to the Heavenly Dragon Gate to have the Heavenly Dragon Douluo take Zhang Lexuan to hunt souls.

When Tianlong Douluo heard that the task was to hunt souls for Yu Wudao's eldest daughter-in-law, he didn't hesitate at all. He spent a full half month traveling around Xingdou, and then took Zhang Lexuan to Sunset Forest to search for a week.

It took a long time to finally achieve something in the Sunset Forest, and a Silver Moon Wolf with 100,000 years of cultivation sacrificed its precious life for it.

Beibei smiled and shook her head:

"Senior Sister underestimates me too much. Of course I know all this information. It's just that the academy's needs for Soul Hunting are always quite large, and I'm afraid you might not be able to handle it all by yourself..."

Zhang Lexuan reached out and tapped Beibei on the head. "You're even teaching your older sister how to do things? Even if I'm too busy, isn't Elder Xuan with me? You can even think of that, so how could the academy be so careless? Alright, enough chit-chat, do you even know where Wudao is?"

Beibei clutched her chest, feigning concern, and said:

"I offered my well-intentioned advice, but does Senior Sister only care about Wudao? What 'saying goodbye to me'? I'm afraid it's not just an excuse to find Wudao, is it?"

Zhang Lexuan felt a little guilty, but as a mature adult, her expression showed no sign of it.

"If you keep fooling around, your hidden weapon will burn out."

Upon hearing this, Beibei suddenly looked down and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah!—I've been busy for over half an hour?!"

While there was still time to salvage the situation, he quickly began swinging the hammer.

He had lost all interest in being silly and began to speak:

"Today is Shrek Academy's admissions day, so most of them are probably in the freshmen dorms or the cafeteria right now! But given Wudao's personality, he probably won't be eating in the cafeteria, so he's most likely in the dorms. If not, then I don't know where Wudao went."

Zhang Lexuan nodded in distress, glanced down at her pocket watch, and sighed, saying:

"I think so too, but when I went to the admissions office, Teacher Wang Yan hesitated for a long time before finally saying that Wu Dao hadn't registered yet, sigh..."

"Maybe I'll just wander around Shrek City... Oh well, I'm leaving now. Beibei, remember to tell Wudao I'll be back in a month at most, before the Freshman Competition."

After saying that, Zhang Lexuan turned and left.

The footsteps faded into the distance until they disappeared completely.

A quarter of an hour later, a wail rang out from the blacksmith's shop.

"So it still can't be done?!"

The admissions day passed quickly, and all the new students had already enrolled.

Shrek Academy returned to its usual peaceful state, but the senior students all knew that life at Shrek Academy would not be peaceful in the future.

Because Yu Wudao has officially enrolled in the school.

In Class 1 of the new students, Yu Wudao, Wang Dong, and Huo Yuhao are all in the class, and the class teacher is none other than the infamous Zhou Yi.

Yu Wudao didn't understand why Du Weilun would assign him to this class. Normally, after the freshmen were assigned to classes, Du Weilun would have to review them before they could be approved.

However, this was exactly what he wanted, because Zhou Yi, this good-for-nothing, could conveniently become his excuse to skip class.

The first day of school, Class 1 of freshmen.

Before the bell rang, the classroom was filled with noise as geniuses from all over the country gathered together, having endless topics to discuss.

Some shared their experiences in their hometowns, while others recounted interesting anecdotes from their lives. However, the majority of the conversation revolved around the two people in the corner of the classroom.

A fit and muscular boy in a fitted short-sleeved shirt and long pants stands out among the school uniforms, while a fair-skinned, boy-girl sits beside him.

It was Yu Wudao and Wang Dong.

Although these freshmen were new to Shrek Academy, aside from a bit of a simpleton like Wang Dong, some from privileged backgrounds had already inquired about the teachers and classmates they might encounter in their year before even enrolling, making preparations for their studies. Those with closer ties to Shrek Academy, like the Xuanming Sect, would even have students like Xu Sanshi spend some time in the outer courtyard beforehand to get acquainted.

The name "Little Demon King" was legendary in the outer academy, so it couldn't be overlooked. Even freshmen who hadn't inquired about the information would generally know something about Yu Wudao after the three-day admissions period. Moreover, just two days ago, Yu Wudao had done something that almost drove Yan Shaozhe to the Golden Ancient Tree.

So, with such a person in their class, there's bound to be a lot of discussion surrounding them.

Discussions about Wang Dong were more straightforward and blunt, mostly consisting of infatuated women who were lustful at first sight. It was typical behavior for Young Master Wang, and she didn't take it seriously at all.
