The teachers in charge of registration sat behind their desks, flipping through the roster without looking up, occasionally calling out "Next."
Among the scattered crowd, one person stood out.
The person was dressed in an exquisite robe, the fabric and cut of which were clearly beyond the reach of ordinary people. His medium-length, light blue hair fell over his shoulders, gleaming softly in the morning light.
That face was so handsome it was almost androgynous, with features so exquisite they looked like a figure from a painting.
Just walking down the street drew frequent glances from the surrounding freshmen, who whispered among themselves.
With such obvious characteristics, it goes without saying that this person's identity is Wang Dong.
But this "Wang Dong" seems a bit off.
"Finally, we've arrived at the academy." Wang Dong gazed at the solemn and majestic gates of Shrek Academy ahead, his eyes burning with intense passion. "Yuhao, wait for me!"
Her tone was full of certainty and anticipation, as if what was about to happen was a foregone conclusion, an unchangeable fact.
After all, in her memory, she and Huo Yuhao met in this very academy.
From their initial antagonism to their later cooperation in battle, and finally their ascension to the divine realm together, it all began with pushing open that dormitory door.
Yes, she was reborn, back to where it all began.
This time, she's determined to have everything firmly in her grasp.
This reborn person is named Tang Wutong.
However, she did not travel from a parallel world like Huo Yuhao; rather, she was a native of this world who was reborn.
She was Tang Wutong, who was supposed to go through thick and thin with Huo Yuhao and eventually return to the realm of gods.
As for why she was reborn, even she herself doesn't know.
All she remembered was that after learning Huo Yuhao had an illegitimate child, she was so angry that she ran straight back to the God Realm.
Halfway there, everything went black, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already sitting in a carriage on his way to Shrek Academy.
After receiving the memories spanning decades from her mind, she was stunned for a long time before finally confirming that she had been reborn.
"Since God has given me a second chance," Tang Wutong clenched her fists, her eyes burning with fighting spirit, "then I must change all those messy things from my past life!"
In her past life, she disguised herself as a man and stayed by Huo Yuhao's side, only to watch helplessly as he had ambiguous relationships with a bunch of women.
Especially that orange, she actually had a child for Huo Yuhao!
The thought of this made Tang Wutong's teeth itch with hatred.
In this life, she was determined to keep Huo Yuhao under her thumb and prevent him from having affairs outside the home.
Huo Yuhao can only belong to her, from head to toe, every inch of him.
"Hmph, I still need to teach him a lesson." Tang Wutong became angrier the more she thought about it, her cheeks puffed up. "He actually dared to have a child with another woman. Don't expect me to give him a good look for the time being."
"Only after I have trained him to be completely obedient and never dare to philander again can I give him a little taste of sweetness."
With such ambition, Tang Wutong, using the identity of Wang Dong, quickly completed the enrollment procedures.
She breathed a long sigh of relief when the teacher in charge of assigning dorm rooms handed her a key engraved with "108".
To be honest, she was a little worried. What if her rebirth caused a butterfly effect and Huo Yuhao was assigned to a different dormitory?
But now it seems that her worries were completely unnecessary. Room 108 was exactly the same as she remembered.
Tang Wutong gripped the key tightly in her hand, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.
It was truly destiny; she and Huo Yuhao were a match made in heaven, and nothing could ever separate them.
With this reassurance, Tang Wutong didn't even bother to check which class she was assigned to.
Anyway, she'll definitely still be in Class 1, and her homeroom teacher will definitely still be her mentor, Zhou Yi.
She was absolutely certain that none of these things could change.
She walked along the familiar stone path across the square and arrived at the dormitory building.
Sure enough, lying on the steps at the entrance was the old man Mu En, the Dragon God Douluo, the current master of the Sea God Pavilion, and also her future teacher.
The old man was still sitting hunched over by the doorstep, just as I remembered, as if he were asleep or simply resting with his eyes closed.
Tang Wutong stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said with heartfelt respect, "Hello, sir, I am a freshman this year."
Mu En slightly opened his eyes, his cloudy gaze sweeping over her, and nodded without saying anything more.
Tang Wutong didn't mind, and after saying hello, she quickly walked into the dormitory building.
Behind her, Moon watched her back, a strange light flashing in his cloudy old eyes.
His gaze lingered on the freshman for a moment, his brow furrowing almost imperceptibly before he resumed his drowsy state.

"Dormitory 108, this is it." Tang Wutong stood in front of the dormitory door, looking at the three familiar numbers on the doorplate, a hint of barely suppressed excitement flashing in her eyes.
She took a deep breath, trying to make her expression appear normal.
She couldn't let Huo Yuhao see anything as soon as she walked in; first impressions were very important, so she had to keep a low profile.
Then she reached out and pushed open the dormitory door.
The next second, the smile on her face froze completely.
Huo Yuhao wasn't in the dormitory. On the bed where the black-haired, blue-eyed boy should have been sitting, a chubby, round-faced fat guy was lying on it.
Wearing a brand-new Shrek school uniform, he was holding a handful of jerky in one hand and stuffing some kind of pastry into his mouth with the other, his cheeks puffed out like a hamster's.
Hearing the door open, the fat man turned around and met Tang Wutong's gaze, revealing a simple and awkward smile.
Tang Wutong stood frozen at the door, as if struck by lightning, one hand still in the position of pushing the door open, motionless for a long time.
Her mind went completely blank for a moment, as if an invisible hand had crushed all her thoughts into dust.
Then a voice screamed wildly in her mind.
"Impossible! This is impossible! Who is this person? Where is my Huo Yuhao?!"
Just as Tang Wutong was screaming inwardly and frozen in place, not knowing what to do, the fat guy who was lying on the bed eating snacks was the first to feel embarrassed.
He hurriedly put the dried meat and pastries on the bed, jumped off, and wiped the crumbs from the corner of his mouth.
Then he gave Tang Wutong a simple yet slightly embarrassed smile: "Hello, hello, my name is Ma Liang, I'm your roommate, please take care of me in the future."
Tang Wutong had no interest in listening to what he was saying. Her mind was a jumbled mess, like countless bees buzzing around.
"How is this possible? How is this possible? Yuhao was destined to meet me, where did he go?" She was completely baffled.
She wasn't bothered to check which dormitory she was assigned to or which class she was assigned to, but Huo Yuhao just vanished into thin air.
"No, he couldn't have just disappeared." Tang Wutong's eyes darted around frantically as she desperately tried to find an explanation for herself.
"They've probably just been assigned to another dorm. Yes, that's for sure."
"I was reborn, which caused some changes, so this situation is normal. It's just that the dorm assignments were wrong; I'm definitely still in the academy!"
The moment the thought popped into her head, she clung to it like a drowning person grasping at the last straw.
Before Ma Liang could react, she suddenly turned around and rushed out of the dormitory.
She started from the first dormitory room on the first floor and kicked open the doors of each room one by one.
101, 102, 103... Behind each door she kicked open, several terrified or angry faces would appear.
But she didn't have time to apologize or explain. She just quickly scanned each dormitory room and rushed to the next one without looking back.
She searched the dormitory on the first floor from top to bottom, but Huo Yuhao was nowhere to be found.
She searched room by room on the second and third floors, only to be disappointed time and time again, yet she forced herself to believe that "the next room will have it."
Her breathing became increasingly rapid, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. Her once beautiful and delicate face was filled with panic and disbelief.
"Where is it? Where is it? It can't be not here..." She leaned against the wall of the fourth-floor corridor, muttering to herself, her eyes already somewhat unfocused.
"We are destined lovers, how could we not even see each other? And without Yuhao, how can I achieve the Three Soul Core and become a god in the future?"
"How can we obtain the bloodline of the Imperial Beast? How could Father's arrangements possibly go wrong!"
She gritted her teeth and continued climbing, searching every single one of the boys' dormitories.
She didn't see even a trace of Huo Yuhao.
Meanwhile, a commotion had erupted behind her.
Which of those students whose doors she kicked open wasn't a local genius, a favored child of various sects and families?
They're the kind of people who act like they own the place; they've never been treated like this before.
Imagine being kicked open in the door by a complete stranger, a madman, who barges in without a word, glares at you, and then turns and leaves without even an apology. Who could tolerate that?
A group of people followed her, cursing and swearing, from the first floor to the third floor, and the number of people kept increasing.
When Tang Wutong walked dejectedly into the corridor outside the dormitory building, the group of students, who had been holding back their anger, immediately surrounded her.
When they saw Tang Wutong's unbelievably handsome face, many people's eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy.
We haven't seen any skill, but we've got this face, and we still dare to be so arrogant? Then we should teach them a lesson.
From the crowd, a tall and muscular male student stepped forward and stood in front of Tang Wutong.
This person was broad-shouldered and burly, and although he was only eleven or twelve years old, his physique already exuded the imposing aura of an adult Soul Master.
His square face was filled with anger as he pointed at Tang Wutong and demanded sharply, "Was it you who kicked down our doors just now? You went from room to room, trying to cause trouble, didn't you?"
“That’s right!” another voice in the crowd chimed in. “You think you can just kick down the door and leave without saying a word? Do you think Shrek Academy is your private property?”
"Don't think you can just let this go without giving me an explanation today!"
The crowd was instantly agitated, with shouts rising higher and higher. Even the female students on the fourth floor and above were alerted by the commotion.
They all leaned over the corridor railings, peering down and whispering among themselves, trying to find out what had happened.
Even Mu En, who was sunbathing at the entrance of the dormitory building, turned his head slightly and glanced in this direction with his cloudy eyes.
Tang Wutong was already upset because she couldn't find Huo Yuhao, and she had a burning anger in her chest that she couldn't vent.
Now, being cornered by this group of people, who kept talking back and forth, the barely taut string finally snapped.
She abruptly raised her head, her pinkish-blue eyes practically spitting fire, and roared defiantly at the burly male student in front of her, "So what if I am?!"
