Finally, Di Tian successfully used his special parental authority to keep the Three-Eyed Golden Lion engrossed in its studies.
Di Tian watched with satisfaction as the Star Dou Golden Youngling lay on the ground, listening listlessly to the white-bearded old man's lecture, its paws gripping a pen as it took notes.
He was still regretting not having discovered this method before. Since the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was forced to study, the entire core area of the Star Dou Great Forest had become much quieter!
At this time of year, this Golden Youngling would have been wandering the streets, causing chaos in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Now, it stayed obediently at home studying, which not only broadened its horizons but also protected it from the dangers of the outside world.
Di Tian firmly believed that there would always be fools coveting the power of the Emperor Beast, so he wouldn't let the beast leave the Star Dou Great Forest unless absolutely necessary.
Even in the outer and mixed zones, it had to be accompanied by a ferocious beast.
This wasn't surveillance; what ferocious beast would bother monitoring her? It was simply protection.
Although there are rules in the Star Dou Great Forest that auspicious beasts can only run away from their prey and cannot fight back, it's hard to guarantee that a soul beast won't
go berserk before it dies. The company of ferocious beasts can prevent the prey from harming
the auspicious beast in its struggle. If an auspicious beast loses even a single hair, Di Tian will
give the ferocious beast protecting it a good beating. Every time he sees the auspicious beast's longing for the human world, Di Tian feels helpless. Although he loves the auspicious beast, he won't put it, a beast with the destiny of Star Dou, into the human world.
This is his responsibility as the Beast God.
After a while, Di Tian casually sat down next to the auspicious beast, picked up a book about the human world, and started reading. He would occasionally stroke the auspicious beast's fur to soothe its anger.
"I wonder how my master is doing."
"She should be alright, after all, she's even sending supplies over."
Di Tian was a little worried about his master. Although there were no beings in the human world that could threaten her, these humans were full of tricks and might have deceived his master.
"You few go patrol the West Street of the South District. Night is falling, and those drunkards might cause trouble again."
"If you encounter any troublemakers, just arrest them and throw them in the city defense jail for a few days."
"If you encounter someone you can't handle, contact me through the magic network."
Gu Yuena looked at her subordinates on the main street of the South District, her cold voice reaching their ears.
They immediately saluted and solemnly replied,
"Understood!"
Then they jogged together to patrol the West Street, which was mainly a concentration of bars and dance halls.
Gu Yuena had reviewed the data there and knew it was the most likely place for trouble, so she assigned more people to maintain order.
After half a day of interaction, these enthusiastic members of the Shrek City defense forces had figured things out.
Their superior, Roman, probably didn't have much power; he mainly handled paperwork.
This stunningly beautiful female leader, Gu Yuena, was very capable! Any trouble they encountered on the way was resolved with just a glare, without even lifting a finger.
Moreover, the other party was very conscientious and responsible, patrolling with them all day and occasionally offering pointers, every suggestion of which proved invaluable.
Although Gu Yuena lacked experience, the children were strong, and with her profound strength, she could pinpoint the problems in many cultivation practices at a glance.
Gu Yuena was full of enthusiasm for these future subordinates and for this future city. She
had already begun to fantasize about one day completely controlling this sacred land of soul masters, and having Di Tian and the others come and live here, to see the territory their master had conquered for them!
After meticulously assigning tasks to her subordinates, Gu Yuena stood alone by the street, opened her magic network, and carefully examined the picture of Dai Huabin that Huo Yuhao had sent. Her delicate
chin nodded slightly, her purple eyes emitting an almost imperceptible glow, and a profound and powerful spiritual force instantly swept across the entire Shrek City.
Even the tiniest speck of dust in Shrek City was now displayed in Gu Yuena's mind from every angle.
None of the powerful figures in Shrek City noticed that someone was monitoring them with spiritual force.
Even Mu En didn't notice that after separating from Bai E and the others, he went to the Sea God Pavilion and retrieved the identity information of everyone at Shrek Academy.
He wanted to see what kind of scoundrels were inside Shrek Academy.
"Zhou Yi?"
"An average of fifteen students expelled a year?"
"With only so many people in a class, such a high expulsion rate?"
"Let me see the reason."
"Because a support-type weapon spirit master can't run a hundred laps in an hour, expelled on the grounds that Shrek doesn't accept trash?!"
Under Gu Yuena's mental surveillance, Mu En's body in his wheelchair leaned back tactically.
Mu En was now questioning his life.
"A freshman, a support-type weapon spirit master? Run a hundred laps in an hour?"
"Is this supposed to make support-type run as fast as agility-type?"
Mu En asked himself honestly. If he were a support-type weapon spirit master, running a hundred laps at level ten would probably make him vomit blood.
"Could this person be a spy for the Sun Moon Empire?"
"What is the outer academy's academic affairs office doing?! This expulsion reason has already been approved?"
Mu En frowned, shocked by what he saw.
Judging from this teacher named Zhou Yi alone, the entire outer academy of Shrek Academy, from the lower-level teachers to the higher-level academic affairs office, was probably in trouble.
In Mu En's view, Zhou Yi's problem was just a minor matter; the real problem was the entire academic affairs office!
The inner academy of Shrek Academy was the core, but the outer academy was its foundation.
Most of the inner academy's disciples were promoted from the outer academy.
If the outer academy wasn't properly managed, Shrek Academy would truly be rotten to the core.
Mu En frowned and continued to flip through the large number of documents beside him, reading them word by word, trying to find the root of Shrek Academy's problems.
He wanted to solve the problem while he still had the strength, and not leave it to the next generation.
Gu Yuena's spiritual power lingered on Mu En for a long time, because this old man had the strongest soul power fluctuations in Shrek Academy.
He was also the strongest human Gu Yuena had ever seen.
"Hmm, not bad, the bloodline of the Holy Light Dragon, from the lineage of Di Tian's father."
"His strength is decent, not as good as Di Tian, but stronger than other ferocious beasts."
"It's a pity he's too old, and there's still resentment within him; he won't live much longer."
Gu Yuena glanced at Mu En's documents through her mental power; they were mostly boring information, which she wasn't interested in. So she shifted her attention and continued to use her mental power to monitor the person her boss had requested.
At this moment, in a house with a courtyard in Shrek City, Dai Huabin lay on the bed, his eyes bloodshot, panting heavily.
A black-haired woman beside him carefully applied ointment to his face.
After the application was finished, Zhu Lu gently helped Dai Huabin sit up.
Dai Huabin didn't look at his fiancée; his voice was completely still in the room.
"Zhu Lu, what does the Magic Network say about me now?"
Zhu Lu bit her lip, knowing that Dai Huabin was like a volcano about to erupt.
She couldn't say that the Magic Network was full of Dai Huabin's memes and various parodies.
Under the influence of some unknown force, this prank even began to spread beyond its original scope, going viral.
Zhu Lu's silence seemed like the best admission; Dai Huabin realized he was probably famous on the magic network now.
After all, he had indeed been badly beaten during the day!
"Don't worry! Huabin, I've already had my family contact that 'Ye Ge.' No matter the cost, I'll help you delete those videos!"
Dai Huabin pushed Zhu Lu aside and coldly said to the people outside the door,
"Come out, all of you!"
As soon as Dai Huabin finished speaking, six men dressed in black robes knelt before him.
"Second Young Master!"
Dai Huabin looked at them and said coldly,
"Heh, you should all have seen the video on the magic network, right?"
"It's hilarious, isn't it?"
"Laugh out loud, don't hold it in."
The six men in black robes didn't dare move, all bowing their heads.
Seeing their silence, Dai Huabin slammed his fist on the table and said,
"I want you to teach those people a lesson!"
"Take a video and send it to me!"
The leader of the black-robed men looked up, hesitating slightly, and said to Dai Huabin,
"Young Master."
"This is Shrek Academy, we..."
Dai Huabin was furious. He said,
"Can't I even ask you to teach them a lesson?!"
"It's not like we're killing them!"
"Why would Shrek Academy care about this?"
The leader of the black-robed men wanted to continue persuading them, but his companion tugged at his shoulder, gave him a look, and said,
"We understand."
Then, they left the house and went into a deserted alley.
The leader of the black-robed men grabbed his companion by the collar and said,
"Second Brother, what were you doing just now?"
"You didn't really intend to make a move here, did you?"
"This is Shrek Academy!"
"Something's happened, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion can't handle it!"
"The young master didn't want us to teach some nobody a lesson, he wanted us to teach Shrek's current celebrities!"
"It's all over the Magic Network!"
The second brother shrugged and said to the leader,
"What can we do?" "
To be honest, I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I saw the videos on the Magic Network mocking the young master."
"But that's the young master. He gave an ironclad order, can you disobey?"
The leader said fiercely to the second brother,
"If you want to do it, then do it!"
"I'm not looking for death!"
"I'm only loyal to the White Tiger Duke!"
The second brother said helplessly,
"Who doesn't say that?"
"Look at everyone, who isn't loyal to the White Tiger Duke?"
One of the black-robed men raised his hand slightly and said,
"Well, I'm actually also loyal to the eldest young master."
The leader knocked hard on the black-robed man who had spoken and said,
"I saw that a long time ago."
"You've been tipping off the young master every day, how could we not know?"
"We just couldn't be bothered with you."
"Now, everyone think of a way! How can we complete the second young master's mission?"
The third-ranking man in the black robes spoke up.
"If all else fails, we can ask the eldest young master for help."
"We really can't do that."
"That guy named Medmos is too famous. If something happens to him, we'll all be in trouble."
The eldest brother was considering the feasibility of asking the eldest young master for help, and the alley fell silent.
"Sigh~ I have an idea."
The fourth-ranking man in the black robes slightly raised his finger and said to the others,
"The second young master said he wanted to teach that group a lesson."
"He didn't specify which one."
"Let's just pick on someone easy to bully, record the video, and send it to the second young master to calm him down."
"Don't worry about the others."
"If the second young master asks, just say he forgot to record the others."
"Anyway, it'll make the second young master feel a little better."
The eldest brother's eyes lit up, and he patted the fourth brother's shoulder, saying,
"You always have the best ideas!"
"Tell me, which one?"
The fourth brother smiled confidently and said,
"Him!"
The eldest brother looked at the person the fourth brother was pointing to; it was a disabled old man.
"Huh? This old man?"
"A disabled person?"
"That's not a good idea."
The fourth brother said confidently,
"Think about it!"
"We don't even spare a disabled old man, so ruthless. If the second young master sees this, he'll definitely think we really attacked the others."
"Wouldn't that increase our credibility?"
The eldest brother pondered for a long time, then said seriously to the others,
"If no one objects, then let's do it!"
"Be careful not to kill anyone!"
"Things are different now. If we get exposed through the magic network, we're finished!"
The other five black-robed men said in unison,
"Understood, boss!"
