The next day.
Tang San led Xiao Wu out of the south gate of Soto City, both of them preoccupied with their own thoughts.
The scene of Yu Xiaowei beating up Dai Mubai yesterday kept replaying in their minds.
Especially when Tang San said that Yu Xiaowei's real age was probably around theirs, Xiao Wu couldn't hide her shock.
Dai Mubai's full-force fighting power, without Tang San using hidden weapons, was completely outmatched.
And that boy, about their age, could effortlessly injure Dai Mubai.
It truly made them question their existence.
After walking for a long time, the two saw a small village.
Tang San, relying on the vision of his Purple Demon Eye, saw that a lot of people seemed to be gathered at the village entrance, as if something important had happened.
As the two approached, they saw that most of the people gathered at the village entrance were boys about their age, and most of them were accompanied by their parents.
To their astonishment, a tattered plaque hung above a simple archway at the village entrance, bearing five large characters:
Shrek Academy.
"No way! This is Shrek Academy?"
The two were utterly incredulous.
However, trusting Grandmaster Tang San, Tang San decided to approach and inquire.
Just then, an argument erupted at the front of the group.
"We don't accept anyone under thirteen years old with a soul power below level twenty-one."
"What about the registration fee?"
"Once registered, it's non-refundable."
"Aren't you just ripping us off! Refund our registration fees now, or we'll report you to the patrol!"
"Mu Bai, someone's causing trouble, deal with it."
With a shout, Dai Mu Bai, his body wrapped in bandages, limped over, supported by Zhu Zhuqing.
The middle-aged man who had been cursing was about to mock the cripple who had appeared.
Dai Mu Bai helplessly released his soul power; three dazzling soul rings shone on the middle-aged man's face, the immense pressure causing his expression to change drastically.
Sensing the fluctuations in soul power, Tang San and Xiao Wu quickly peered over. Upon seeing Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up.
"Hey, Xiao San, isn't that Dai Mubai and that girl?"
"It really is him. Is he also a student of Shrek Academy?"
Just as the two were whispering amongst themselves, the conflict ahead had ended. Knowing he couldn't afford to offend a soul master, the middle-aged man left with his son, looking resentful.
Seeing Shrek Academy's strict admission requirements, many in the queue wavered and chose to leave.
Soon, it was Tang San and Xiao Wu's turn.
Dai Mubai spotted them immediately and turned to the old man recruiting students, saying with difficulty,
"Teacher Li, these two meet the admission requirements."
The old man looked at him suspiciously, then suddenly widened his eyes, stood up angrily, and released an extremely powerful aura.
A dense red light suddenly condensed in the old man's right hand, transforming into a dragon-patterned staff.
Six soul rings rose from beneath his feet, and the terrifying pressure of a Soul Emperor suddenly pressed down on Tang San and Xiao Wu.
The old man roared menacingly,
"So it was you two bastards who injured Mu Bai!"
"I'll teach you a lesson today, show you how high the sky is and how thick the earth is!"
Seeing the old man's misunderstanding, Dai Mu Bai hurriedly tried to stop him.
However, his physical limitations made movement and even speaking difficult, so he could only give Zhu Zhuqing meaningful glances.
No longer the weak, delicate woman she was in the hotel, Zhu Zhuqing stood in front of the old man, speaking coldly,
"Teacher Li, it wasn't those two who injured Dai Mu Bai."
"Hmm?"
The old man's aura faltered, and he frowned at Zhu Zhuqing. "Are you sure? Then why did Mu Bai know they met the admission requirements at a glance?"
Tang San, relieved of the pressure, quickly explained,
"We fought yesterday, but I lost."
"Uh..."
The old man smiled awkwardly, putting away his spirit rings, and his immense Soul Emperor aura vanished instantly.
"Since that's the case, pay the registration fee and you can go in."
"You're so stingy, you even have to pay tuition!"
Xiao Wu pouted, looking unhappy.
Shrek Academy, in an old office.
Zhao Wuji was reporting to Flander about Dai Mubai's beating.
"They easily captured Mubai and then beat him up like this?"
Flander pushed up his glasses, saying incredulously.
Although Dai Mubai wasn't the most talented student at Shrek Academy, he was currently the student with the highest soul power.
At only 15 years old, his soul power had already reached level 37, making him potentially the only graduate in recent years.
Yet now, he'd been beaten up like this by some kid who appeared out of nowhere.
"Yes, that's what the hotel staff said. According to their description, that kid is probably even younger than Mubai."
Zhao Wuji also found it unbelievable. Dai Mubai fought with people every day, always knowing who he could fight and who he couldn't mess with. How could he have encountered such a prodigy?
After pondering for a while, Flander suddenly asked,
"The hotel staff said the kid's name is Yu Xiaowei?"
"Yes."
"Yu Xiaowei, surname Yu, Yu... Could it be that kid?"
"Boss, have you figured out who it is? Tell me quickly!"
Seeing his thoughtful expression, Zhao Wuji was anxious.
Flander shook his head, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought. After a long while, he said with some emotion.
"Yes, only she could raise such an outstanding child."
"I only met this child once, and later I searched for him for a long time in Soto City but couldn't find him again."
"I didn't expect him to still be in Soto City."
Zhao Wuji sighed deeply, helplessly.
"Boss, I didn't ask you to sigh like this, I'm asking who the kid who beat up is? Mu Bai can't be beaten up for nothing."
"Oh."
Flander came back to his senses and said, "That child should be a descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan."
"Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan?!"
This name really shocked Zhao Wuji. If that's true, then he really can't go to avenge Dai Mu Bai. The people of the Upper Three Sects are not so easy to mess with.
He had just offended a Power Clan, a vassal of the Haotian Sect, and had been hunted down for countless years.
Let alone this being a genuine genius from the direct lineage of the Upper Three Sects.
"That's right, I saw this kid in Soto City last time. He was only 12 years old, and his soul power was as high as level 38."
"What! 12 years old and level 38! What kind of monster is this?! Is he on drugs?!"
Zhao Wuji's voice suddenly rose, making the office windows rattle.
"Do you know who that kid's uncle is?"
"Who?"
"Thunder Douluo, Yu Yuanzhen."
"Hiss."
"So, Wuji, don't try to cause trouble for that kid anymore. If you mess with such a genius today, our Shrek Academy will probably be gone tomorrow."
"Sigh, alright."
This time, Shrek Academy recruited three new students:
Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu.
Among them, Tang San was the most eye-catching, with a soul power of level 29 at the age of 12.
This greatly satisfied Li Yusong, who was in charge of the assessment.
Supported by Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai limped as he led Tang San and Xiao Wu on a tour of the academy.
As they walked, Xiao Wu, who had been observing Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing for a long time, couldn't help but ask,
"Zhuqing, what's your relationship with that guy from yesterday?"
Dai Mubai stopped and narrowed his eyes at Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing, her face as cold as ice, ignored Dai Mubai's gaze and replied in an icy tone,
"I have no relationship with him."
"Then what's your relationship with Dai Mubai?"
Tang San quickly covered Xiao Wu's mouth; how could this little brat dare to say anything like that?
You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want.
However, Zhu Zhuqing didn't get angry, and Dai Mubai was unusually silent, creating an awkward atmosphere.
After a moment
, recalling Dai Mubai's triumphant appearance when he was holding the twins, Zhu Zhuqing said calmly,
"He's my fiancé."
