Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 33 Shrek Academy! (Part 2)

The freshman dormitory building was bustling with activity. Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan successfully completed their registration, received their dormitory keys, two sets of white freshman uniforms, and a white Shrek badge, and then walked out of the building.

Outside the teaching building, Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan smiled at each other. From now on, they were students of the number one academy in the world. They couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

"Let's go to the dorm and pack our things. We can go check on the class later, around dinner time," Zhu Ziyang said.

"Okay!" Jiang Nannan replied with a smile.

The two walked between the white freshman teaching building and the black second and third-year teaching buildings and saw the dormitory building. There was only one dormitory building, but it occupied a very large area. The design of this building was also very interesting. It was six stories high and had four entrances, which were white, yellow, purple and black from left to right. Obviously, they corresponded to the colors of the teaching buildings and represented the areas where students of different grades lived.

They arrived at the white building that symbolized new life. An old man dressed in gray cloth was reclining on a bamboo chair, leisurely basking in the sun. The old man was very old, with wrinkles on his face that looked like they could trap flies. His eyes were slightly closed, and he looked like he was indifferent to the world.

Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan subconsciously bowed to him in greeting, out of respect for an elder, but that was all.

They didn't wait for the old man's response and went straight into the dormitory building.

Upon reaching the stairs, Jiang Nannan said, "Brother Ziyang, remember to wait for me!"

"Okay!" Zhu Ziyang nodded and then walked towards his dormitory.

"There's a promising talent this year! An eleven-year-old Soul Master..." After Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan left, the old man's eyes trembled slightly, and his mouth moved, making sounds that were barely audible.

Zhu Ziyang easily found his dormitory room, opened the door and went in. Looking at the simple room with only two beds and a table, he couldn't help but laugh.

If you only look at the dormitory conditions, Anyang Academy actually seems to be the best academy in the world. Because Shrek Academy's dormitories, whether in terms of environment or facilities, are a whole level below Anyang Academy.

The dormitory room was a little dusty, and the two beds were empty. Clearly, his roommate hadn't arrived yet. Zhu Ziyang started cleaning the room thoroughly before beginning to make the beds.

While cleaning his dorm room, Zhu Ziyang couldn't help but wonder what kind of person his roommate would be. He hoped he would be easy to get along with, since he didn't want to bully the weak.

However, he didn't think about it for long. For him, who his roommate was didn't matter. He certainly wouldn't stay in Shrek Academy's outer courtyard for six years; his goal was to enter Shrek Academy's inner courtyard within three years!

Soon, Zhu Ziyang finished tidying up and sat on the bed to read a book while waiting for his roommate.

Half an hour passed, and he still hadn't seen his roommate. But he wasn't in a hurry, since the admissions process still had three days to go.

Zhu Ziyang was a little hungry. He glanced at the time; it was almost six o'clock. He left the dormitory and went to the dormitory building entrance, quietly waiting for Jiang Nannan to appear. Usually, this was their dinner time, so Jiang Nannan would also be hungry, and he wouldn't have to wait too long.

Instead of reading while waiting in front of the dormitory building, Zhu Ziyang openly observed the old man standing in front of the gate.

This seemingly frail old man was not as ordinary as he appeared; at least Zhu Ziyang could sense his extraordinary nature. As someone who possessed the ultimate Martial Soul of Light, Zhu Ziyang could feel the light emanating from the old man—intense, pure, and magnificent.

Only those who have a profound understanding and mastery of the element of light can possess such a luminous aura!

This old man is definitely no ordinary person; he might even be a senior member of the Sea God Pavilion! Zhu Ziyang thought to himself.

To understand the Sea God Pavilion, one must first understand the structure of Shrek Academy.

The outer campus of Shrek Academy, which is what is commonly referred to as Shrek Academy on the mainland, was specially expanded after the Battle of the Sun four thousand years ago at the request of the royal family of the former Douluo Three Kingdoms, with the aim of cultivating more talents.

Currently, the outer academy is divided into the Martial Soul Department and the Soul Guidance Department. The Martial Soul Department is the traditional Soul Master branch, while the Soul Guidance Department is a branch specifically established to train Soul Masters in response to the Soul Guidance Technology of the Sun Moon Empire.

The inner courtyard of Shrek Academy is the true Shrek Academy, and the foundation of Shrek Academy's eternal invincibility. It consistently practices Shrek Academy's original educational philosophy, which is to only enroll monsters!

So what kind of Soul Master can be considered a monster? This relates to the admission requirements of Shrek Academy's Inner Court.

The requirements for entering Shrek Academy's inner court are extremely stringent. The most basic requirement is to reach the level of a four-ring Soul Master by the age of eighteen, before graduating from Shrek's outer court. An eighteen-year-old four-ring Soul Master, barring unforeseen death, is almost guaranteed to become a Soul Douluo, or even a Title Douluo!

Therefore, the Soul Masters who can enter Shrek Academy's Inner Court are all geniuses among geniuses, and are truly deserving of the title of monsters.

The Shrek Inspection Team is an organization within Shrek Academy specifically dedicated to eliminating evil spirit masters. Composed of Shrek's inner court disciples and teachers, it regularly goes out to exterminate evil spirit masters, and its actions against evil spirit masters have never ceased since its establishment.

The Sea God Pavilion, the most mysterious and powerful organization on the continent, is the sole core of Shrek Academy. It is a department composed entirely of Title Douluo-level powerhouses, and its members are known as Elders.

For the three great empires, the Sea God Pavilion was a true pillar of stability; the combined number of Title Douluos in the three empires might not even match the number of elders in the Sea God Pavilion. For the Sun Moon Empire, the Sea God Pavilion was a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, the root cause of their continued reluctance to wage war.

This seemingly ordinary old man is very likely a senior member of the Sea God Pavilion.

Perhaps sensing Zhu Ziyang's gaze, the old man raised his eyes, his cloudy and deep gaze falling on him. His voice was low and weak as he asked, "Child, is there something wrong with me?"

"No, no!" Zhu Ziyang was taken aback, then said repeatedly, "I'm sorry, grandpa, I didn't mean to bother you, I just felt you were very kind!"

"Hehe, I see." The old man chuckled upon hearing this, and then said nothing more.

Zhu Ziyang remained silent.

A few minutes later, Jiang Nannan finally came down.

"Brother Ziyang!" Jiang Nannan stuck out her cute little tongue shyly when she saw Zhu Ziyang and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

"It's okay, I've only been out for a short time myself," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile, holding Jiang Nannan's small hand.

The two left the dormitory building.

"A perceptive little fellow... he's worth nurturing," the old man muttered, watching Zhu Ziyang and his companion leave.

Zhu Ziyang and his companion arrived at the freshman-only cafeteria.

Shrek Academy's dining halls are also strictly tiered, divided into four sections based on school uniform colors. Upperclassmen are not allowed to dine in the lowerclassmen's dining halls. Lowerclassmen, however, can eat in the upperclassmen's dining halls, but must be ready to accept challenges from upperclassmen at any time.

The freshman cafeteria is also quite unique, with eight food serving windows, prices ranging from low to high, no tables or chairs in the hall, and students are not allowed to take their food out of the cafeteria; they can only eat in. It's really interesting.
