Peerless Tang Sect: God Emperor Haotian

Outside the Starry Sky Forest.

"Are you sure you don't need me to take you to Shrek Academy?" Li Mu asked hesitantly, his gaze sweeping over Ye Sen and Jiang Nannan.

He was clearly still somewhat uneasy about the two's suggestion to travel alone. After all, to his knowledge, neither of them had experience traveling far alone.

Ye Sen smiled and said, "Grandpa Dean, you've already witnessed my strength in the Star Dou Great Forest. We are capable of protecting ourselves. Young eagles need to learn to fly alone to grow. This time, we want to learn and see as much as possible, and take this opportunity to see the world for ourselves."

Upon hearing this, Li Mu immediately glanced at Ye Sen again.

He trusted Ye Sen's way of handling things, and he figured that even if the two of them acted alone, with Ye Sen around, they wouldn't cause any trouble.

"Oh well."

With this in mind, Li Mu nodded, but still reminded him, "Remember, the world is a treacherous place. Think carefully before you act. Keep a low profile, and don't get involved in things that don't concern you. Your own safety is the most important thing, understand?"

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Ye Sen and Jiang Nannan nodded in unison.

Li Mu also breathed a sigh of relief, a kind smile on his face like that of an elder to a younger generation, and said, "Then let's part ways here. Don't dawdle on the way, or you'll miss the appointed time and have to wait until next year."

"Well, we'll be going then. Thank you so much for taking care of us these past few years, Grandpa Dean."

With that, Ye Sen bowed deeply to Li Mu.

Although the help that could be given to Li Mu was extremely limited given his circumstances, he considered it as weighty as Mount Tai.

Seeing this, Jiang Nannan, who was standing to the side, also bowed to Li Mu, just like Ye Sen.

"Alright, let's get going. Don't forget to visit this old man at the academy when you come back sometime," Li Mu said with a smile, helping the two of them up.

"must."

Ye Sen nodded seriously.

The three then parted ways and went their separate ways.

......

The Lima Plain is located in the heart of the former Barak Kingdom and was one of the kingdom's important granaries.

Ten thousand years have passed, and the name of the Barak Kingdom has long since vanished into the dust of history. However, the Lima Plain remains well-known throughout the continent because of the existence of an academy—Shrek Academy, now known as the number one Soul Master Academy on the continent.

After ten days of travel, Ye Sen and Jiang Nannan finally arrived safely at the Lima Plain.

In early spring, the Lima Plain is a lush green expanse, teeming with life as far as the eye can see. The gentle spring breeze, like a mother's hand, caresses the land, causing the boundless grassland to undulate like waves, bringing with it the fragrance of grass and earth.

A gentle spring breeze caressed her face. Jiang Nannan, adorned with a five-colored flower wreath woven by Ye Sen, stretched her arms freely. Her perfectly fitted white dress accentuated her flawless figure. A faint smile played on her lips, and a look of pure enjoyment graced her exquisite face.

"Brother Ye Sen, the air here is so fresh!" Jiang Nannan said to Ye Sen beside her.

"It's really good." Ye Sen nodded in approval.

Compared to the surrounding environment of Xuanming City, this place is obviously closer to nature and is indeed very suitable for living.

Continuing onward, before long, the outline of a magnificent city came into view.

Shrek City, one of the most famous cities on the continent, may not be as large as the capitals of the major empires on the continent, but it is no less famous, and may even be more famous.

Shrek City, built in partnership with Shrek Academy, is the only city on the Douluo Continent that doesn't belong to any country, giving it an extremely privileged status. Not only does it boast a large number of Soul Masters, but its commerce is also highly developed. Because it doesn't belong to any empire and has no bias, most cross-border transactions by merchant guilds are completed here.

"Shrek Academy is just ahead, let's hurry up." The appearance of Shrek Academy immediately excited Jiang Nannan, and she grabbed Ye Sen's arm and headed towards the city.

Since becoming a Soul Master, she had heard too many legends about Shrek Academy. When the legends were about to become reality, the anticipation was unimaginable!

On the contrary, Ye Sen was quite calm. He didn't have the same longing for Shrek Academy as Jiang Nannan; he was more interested in exploring it and didn't even plan to stay there for long.

Soon the two arrived at the walls of Shrek City.

Many people who come to Shrek Academy for the first time get lost because the school's layout is extremely bizarre, and it's unclear who came up with the idea.

The academy's only entrance is not inside the city, but outside. The eastern gate is the academy's only entrance and exit, causing many unfamiliar people to go to the wrong place on their first visit.

Ye Sen was very clear about this, so he naturally wouldn't go to the wrong place like ordinary people.

Upon arriving near the East Gate, Ye Sen immediately spotted the entrance to Shrek Academy and the bustling street in front of it, teeming with people.

The admissions season is the busiest time of the year for Shrek Academy, attracting not only a large number of new students but also their parents. The sheer number of people is astounding.

Ye Sen and Jiang Nannan did not linger in the market, as they had already prepared all the necessities for school on their way there, and immediately headed straight for the entrance of the academy.

As the number one soul master academy in the world, Shrek Academy had no guards at its gates, but there were more than a dozen young men and women in yellow school uniforms present. Judging from their words and actions, they were probably welcoming staff arranged by Shrek Academy.

The arrival of Ye Sen and his companion immediately drew the attention of the welcoming staff.

With their looks and demeanor, they would be considered top-tier even in Shrek Academy, a place teeming with geniuses, making it hard for anyone not to notice them.

A pretty female student who was closest to the two of them stepped forward and asked, "Are you also new students here to register?"

"Um."

Ye Sen smiled and nodded in response.

The female student continued, "Applicants must be no older than twelve, have a soul power level of at least fifteen, and possess a letter of recommendation from the lord of their native city. Are you all aware of these application requirements?"

Ye Sen nodded and replied, "We know all that. May I ask where we register?"

The female student immediately said, "Come with me, I'll take you there."

Ye Sen and Jiang Nannan exchanged a glance, and then the two followed the female student into Shrek Academy.

Passing through the tall city gate, the view suddenly opens up, and various plants come into view. It can be seen that Shrek Academy's landscaping is very well done, and the overall style is very close to nature.

Looking further into the distance, one could see the outlines of buildings arranged in a staggered pattern. Ye Sen only glanced at them briefly before his attention was drawn to a row of statues several hundred meters away.
