Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Mysterious Heavy Ruler

Chapter 94 Shrek Academy Recruitment

While the three women were playfully fighting, Xiao Yi had already arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Inside the small wooden house next to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Xiao Yi told Dugu Bo about Zhu Zhuqing.

"So, you've taken care of that Zhu family girl, and she's your woman now. You've come to me to help her resolve her engagement issue?" Dugu Bo said, looking at Xiao Yi.

Dugu Bo looked Xiao Yi up and down, but couldn't see anything special about him. He was just a little younger, a little more handsome, and a little more powerful. What did this kid have that kind of luck?

"It's like this, it all depends on whether Grandpa agrees or not," Xiao Yi said guiltily.

He couldn't help feeling guilty, after all, Dugu Yan was the rightful wife. Dugu Bo, as her grandfather, would definitely feel uncomfortable knowing that Xiao Yi had taken care of Zhu Zhuqing and wanted to break off their engagement, even though it was an accident.

"Sigh, so be it. Now that she's your woman, let's just break off the engagement. The Dai family is nothing but a small family. I'll back you up." Dugu Bo said domineeringly after a moment of contemplation.

As a level 97 Super Douluo, Dugu Bo naturally had the ability to say such a thing. After all, apart from a very few individuals in the world who could defeat him, Dugu Bo was only a handful. If he wanted to, he could directly release poison and annihilate the entire Star Luo Royal Family.

Even Dugu Bo, at level 91, would have reservations, given that he was poisoned and couldn't fight for long.

"Then thank you, Grandpa. If you want to dissolve the engagement, we can do so when we go to the Broken Clan in a while," Xiao Yi said.

"You came to me after you had it all planned out, didn't you? You arranged everything so clearly." Dugu Bo looked at Xiao Yi suspiciously.

"Ahem, I was afraid you'd be angry, so I had to come and discuss it with you first," Xiao Yi said, scratching his head as Dugu Bo saw through his thoughts.

"You brat, you've done it, so just admit it. Don't be like some useless Great Soul Master who only knows how to run away," Dugu Bo admonished.

(Prisoner: You might as well just give me your ID card)

"Ahem, Grandpa, don't worry. Since I've taken it on, I'll see it through to the end." Xiao Yi thought of an old friend when he heard Dugu Bo's words.

"Alright, you've said everything you needed to say. Go back and spend some time with them. After all, these girls have just gone through something like this and need more support. I really don't know what kind of incredible luck you have. So many girls are infatuated with you, even the young master of the Spirit Hall has feelings for you," Dugu Bo said calmly.

"Ahem, I don't know either. Grandpa, I'm going back now." Xiao Yi chuckled and then took to the air, heading towards the Dugu residence.

Dugu Bo looked at Xiao Yi's retreating figure and found it amusing. He shook his head and said, "That brat, he's always causing trouble. He hasn't even dealt with the young master of the Spirit Hall yet, and he's already taken on the Xingluo Zhu family."

"Oh well, what can I do? He's my grandson-in-law. Yan Yan, you'd better hold onto your position as the empress." Dugu Bo thought to himself.

Meanwhile, in Soto.

Today is Shrek Academy's admissions day. Little Scoundrel and Old Rabbit got up, washed up, and headed towards Shrek Academy.

Just like in the original story, after resting for a while yesterday, the little rascal went to Flander's small shop, but the crystal board had already been taken away by Xiao Yi a few years ago, so the little rascal did not gain anything.

After walking for a while, the two saw a small village ahead.

"Hey, San Ge, look over there's a small village. Let's go ask them where Shrek Academy is," the old rabbit suggested.

The young scoundrel looked around and found that there were no other buildings besides the village. He thought that what the old rabbit said made a lot of sense. The Soul Master Academy must be very famous. He might as well listen to the old rabbit and go up to ask. So he pulled the old rabbit and walked closer to the village.

Upon closer inspection, both Little Scoundrel and Old Rabbit noticed something amiss. A large group of people had indeed gathered at the village entrance, mostly teenagers of similar age to them, and many of them were accompanied by their parents.

At the village entrance stood a table, behind which sat an elderly man in his sixties. To Tang San and Xiao Wu's astonishment, a somewhat tattered plaque hung above the wooden archway at the village entrance, bearing the simple five characters: Shrek Academy. In front of these characters was a green head, resembling the head of a humanoid monster. It was green, and rather cute. The elderly man behind the table also wore a similar green circular badge on his chest. It was likely the Shrek Academy's emblem.

"No way." Xiao Wu jumped off Tang San's back, staring at the plaque in surprise and looking at Tang San in astonishment.

"Three cuts, Master, are you mistaken? This doesn't look like an academy to me at all. Could it be a scam?"

Tang San smiled wryly and said, "Since we're already here, let's see what happens first."

At this moment, there were about a hundred applicants ahead of them in line, many of whom were frowning, clearly sharing the same thoughts as Xiao Wu.

The old man sitting behind the table, responsible for accepting registrations, looked rather lazy. His clothes were, to put it nicely, simple, but by all accounts, he looked more like an old villager than a Soul Master.

Since there were many people queuing up for the test, Little Scoundrel and Old Rabbit weren't in a hurry, so they waited in line at the back.

Suddenly, an argument broke out among the crowd ahead. Due to the large number of people, all that could be heard were complaints about registration fees and disqualification. Then, the little punk sensed a fluctuation of soul power emanating from ahead.

The old man released his martial spirit, surrounded by six spirit rings of white, yellow, purple, purple, and black, symbolizing his identity as a Soul Emperor.

The old man said coldly, "Shrek is a monster, an extremely strange existence even among soul beasts. The meaning of Shrek Academy is Monster Academy. That is to say, we only accept monsters, not ordinary people. Those who are over thirteen years old, or whose soul power has not reached level twenty-one, don't waste your time here."

The crowd, who had been making a ruckus just moments before, fell silent the moment they saw the spirit rings surrounding the old man, and then ran away with their children.

After the crowd dispersed, only a dozen or so people remained in the group, which allowed Little Scoundrel and Old Rabbit to move forward one step.

"Next! Hmm? Do your family members know you're out?" A soft exclamation rang out.

The old man's face showed a look of surprise and uncertainty. At this moment, a young girl was standing in front of him, withdrawing her outstretched hand.

The girl was alone, without her parents. Her simple white dress gave her a clean and tidy appearance. She had neat, short hair that reached her ears, and her skin was exceptionally fair and delicate.

"Excuse me, have I passed the preliminary test?" The girl's voice was soft and pleasant, lacking some of her heroic spirit, but it sounded so gentle that it gave people a soft feeling.

This girl is none other than Ning Rongrong, the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. She traveled from Tiandou City to Soto City, stopping to play along the way, and only arrived a few days ago. After spending a few days in Soto City, she received news of Shrek Academy's enrollment, so she got up early this morning and rushed here from the hotel.

"Hmm... This place is indeed very interesting. It was a smart decision for me to leave the sect," Ning Rongrong thought to herself.

Ning Rongrong did not answer his question directly, but smiled and said, "It is said that education should be provided to all without discrimination. As long as I meet the academy's requirements, you have no reason not to accept me, right?"

The old man hesitated for a moment, but still decided to take Ning Rongrong in. He looked back and said, "Mu Bai, take her inside."
