Chapter 160 Senior Sister? Senior Brother?
Chapter 160 Senior Sister? Senior Brother?
Unlike the grand and solemn Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Shrek Academy has a more elegant style, with a beautiful environment and abundant, lush vegetation. Walking along the wide avenue, no matter which direction you look, you can see at least ten kinds of meticulously trimmed plants.
Kong Tianxu flew very fast, but it was almost dark when he arrived at Shrek Academy. The day's classes had long ended, but the Shrek students had not yet rested.
Along the way, many young men and women dressed in various colors such as white, yellow, purple, and black stood on both sides of the road, watching the group from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy who were dressed in completely different moon-white clothes, each with a green pattern on their chest.
The Shrek Academy students' gazes, filled with a mix of emotions, naturally fell upon Kong Tianxu, who was leading the group. Some looked down on him, some were solemn, but most of all, they were filled with a burning fighting spirit against the supreme dragon that had shattered Shrek's millennia-old glory.
Mu En revealed the information about Shrek Academy's defeat in the tournament without any attempt to conceal it. Although this increased the pressure on Huo Yuhao and the others, it also caused the Shrek Academy students to grow at an unprecedented speed under the humiliation.
Now, supported by a certain belief, Shrek Academy has a stronger sense of cohesion than before. After learning the date when Kong Tianxu and the others would arrive as exchange students, they spontaneously gathered here, wanting to see who exactly defeated the Shrek Seven Devils.
However, Kong Tianxu didn't even bother to look at them. None of them were Soul Saints, so they were not qualified to stand in front of him at all.
But he didn't speak, and Old Ma saw through Shrek's little scheme.
"Dean Yan is so hospitable, inviting so many students to welcome us. It seems Shrek Academy truly lives up to its millennia-old tradition of elegance."
Yan Shaozhe remained silent with a dark expression, only his lips moved slightly. Kong Tianxu keenly sensed that a certain fluctuation in the air, mixed with powerful soul force, was transmitted far away.
After walking another two hundred meters, when they reached the statue that Kong Tianxu had just observed, a number of people who clearly looked like teachers came out to disperse the large number of students who were watching.
Several people were already waiting beside the statue. They quickly came forward, and one of them, a tall man in his fifties with a dark face and no beard, came to Yan Shaozhe and said respectfully, "Dean, everything is arranged."
Yan Shaozhe glared at him, then smiled and said, "Please excuse my rudeness. Let me introduce you. This is Du Weilen, the Dean of Studies for the Outer Court of the Martial Soul Department at Shrek Academy. Your lives and studies for the next three years will be inseparable from him. Weilen, please make arrangements for the children. Teacher Ma and I will head ahead and wait for you in the assessment area."
After saying this, Yan Shaozhe led Old Ma away. From this moment on, the curtain officially rose on this exchange and learning program.
"Yes." As soon as Yan Shaozhe left, Du Weilun regained his cold expression. With a wave of his right hand, those who had come with him immediately stepped forward and distributed something to the students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
"You've had a long journey, everyone. Welcome to Shrek Academy. For the next three years, you will be part of Shrek Academy. To ensure the success of this exchange program, we will provide you with the best learning environment."
"What you've received are our school's student handbook and a map of the college, one copy for each of you. Although it's a bit late now, before that, in order for you to put on your Shrek Academy uniforms as soon as possible and confirm your dormitory locations, we still need to register and assess you. If you need any help at the college in the future, feel free to come to me."
After receiving the items, the group, led by their teachers, proceeded to the left from the statue. The road was still wide enough for four or five carriages to travel side by side, and there was a sign on the side of the road that read "Lakeside Path".
According to the handbook, Shrek Academy is much smaller than the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. With the statue as the dividing line, to the left is the Martial Soul Branch, and to the right is the Soul Guidance Branch. These are Shrek Academy's two main branches, both outer academies.
The darkness clearly did not affect Kong Tianxu's eyesight. Through the shady green trees on his right, he could clearly see the huge Sea God Lake, and the island in the center of the lake was where Shrek Academy's inner courtyard was located.
His gaze narrowed slightly. In his elemental vision, an unprecedentedly terrifying energy source resembled a colossal pillar reaching the sky, radiating golden light and vast expanse.
Following the lakeside path south for almost fifteen minutes, we turned west. After another fifteen minutes or so, the path began to narrow, and a wide rectangular plaza came into view. A sign for Shrek Plaza also appeared nearby.
Behind Shrek Square stood rows of tall school buildings, each a different color, primarily white, yellow, purple, and black. Looking further north from Shrek Square, one could see a cluster of gray school buildings.
According to Du Weilun, in terms of area, the Soul Guidance Department occupies about one-third of the main teaching area, while the Martial Soul Department occupies two-thirds. In addition to the teaching buildings at the front, there are many specific teaching areas behind, such as the Soul Battle Arena, the Examination Area, the Dormitory Area, the Teacher's Office Area, and so on.
Their destination, the assessment area, is located in the north-central part of the Martial Soul System, adjacent to the Battle Soul Area. Compared to the Battle Soul Area, the assessment area is much larger, covering approximately 20,000 square meters. It is oval-shaped and unlike the Battle Soul Area, which resembles an enclosed stadium, it is an open space surrounded by a low wall.
Meng Hongchen looked at everything at Shrek Academy with great curiosity. Even though they were from the Sun Moon Empire, they still had a lot of longing for this holy land of soul masters on the continent. The reputation and glory that Shrek had accumulated over ten thousand years could not be completely erased by a single defeat in a major competition.
"Tianxu, what do you think our evaluation will include?" Meng Hongchen quietly tugged at Kong Tianxu's sleeve.
"It's definitely not a soul tool." Kong Tianxu shrugged.
Their voices were very soft, but Du Weiren was a genuine eight-ring Soul Douluo, so he could naturally hear their conversation clearly.
"At Shrek Academy, there is only one thing to be evaluated on."
With a smug smile, he opened the door to the assessment area.
"That's real combat."
The door opened, and a woman who appeared to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old came into view. Her long black hair reached down to her waist, and her delicate face was fair and flawless. Her hands, except for her thumbs, had the other eight fingers interlaced, with her thumbs touching, and were quietly placed on her lower abdomen.
Her tranquil and gentle temperament makes her unforgettable at first sight.
Zhang Lexuan subconsciously opened her eyes, her gaze meeting a pair of deep purple eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.
Behind her, more than fifty young men and women dressed in blood-red school uniforms sat quietly on the viewing platform, their expressions ranging from cold and stern to casual, all exuding an extraordinary aura.
Among them, Ling Luochen was in the second row behind her, and Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong and others that Kong Tianxu was familiar with were also among them.
After Du Weilun's introduction, Kong Tianxu and his group learned that Shrek Academy's uniforms are divided by grade, and red represents the inner academy.
Upon hearing the door open, their eyes all turned to Kong Tianxu, instantly drawn to him. Ling Luochen and the others stared intently, almost piercing through him, and an invisible aura began to spread.
However, what truly caught Kong Tianxu's attention immediately, besides Zhang Lexuan's bright and intelligent black eyes, was a deep, resonant voice.
"Director Du."
The speaker was a young man with a shiny bald head and an astonishingly muscular build, which made his school uniform bulge. Just sitting there, he looked several sizes larger than the average person. His hands were flat on his knees, and his bare forearms were about the same width as his hands.
He sat in the very center of all the students, surrounded by a multitude of inner court students, like a majestic king.
Beside him were several outstanding young men, and even a pair of twins with very different temperaments.
For the first time in a long time, Kong Tianxu sensed a hint of danger from the younger generation. Perhaps he was the only one among everyone here who could feel it. The ground beneath his feet seemed to tremble slightly the moment the other person spoke.
Upon hearing him speak, Du Weilen nodded to him, then clapped his hands, drawing the attention of the students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, who were subtly at odds with each other, to himself.
"This is our academy's assessment area. Every year, all students who enter the academy must complete the entrance and promotion assessments here. Based on everyone's general soul power level, we will evaluate everyone according to the inner academy's standards. Those who pass will directly enter the inner academy. Before we begin, please state your basic information. Let's have Kong Tianxu go first."
"We already know about your martial spirit, so we'll just go through the motions," Du Weilen added with a smile.
"Kong Tianxu, 15 years old, level 60."
Du Weiren's smile froze, and the many inner court disciples who had been eagerly anticipating the challenge gaped wide-eyed, all three words echoing in their minds—
impossible!
Level 60, that's level 60! You're only one sixth soul ring away from reaching the Soul Emperor realm at level 60!
Many elite students of Shrek Academy tried their best but failed to break through level 60, which represents the direct path to becoming a Title Douluo, before the age of twenty.
Even among these proud inner court disciples, such a prodigy only appears once every few generations on average. And now, someone has already trampled him underfoot at the age of fifteen!
Kong Tianxu smiled calmly, took a step forward, and unleashed a powerful aura that instantly reversed the momentum of the Shrek Academy members, displaying a spirit of one man holding the pass.
"I wonder who my opponent will be in the assessment?"
Yan Shaozhe stood not far away and watched, nodding to himself. As expected of a peerless genius with the perfect harmony between man and nature, he showed no fear when facing the pressure of the entire inner academy in the competitive relationship academy. This mentality alone was already outstanding.
Zhang Lexuan raised her hand, and a gentle moonlight blocked her way, which slightly improved the expressions of the inner court students with lower cultivation levels behind her.
Her beautiful brows furrowed, as if she were wondering about something, and she said gently to the bald young man, "Senior Brother, why don't I go first?"
"No, Le Xuan, you're about to go on a soul hunt, you can't let this interfere with important matters." The bald young man stood up, smiled, "Besides, I've lingered in the position of chief disciple for so long just to see this supreme dragon who defeated my Shrek Academy, I definitely can't let this opportunity pass me by."
As he spoke, he lightly touched the ground with his toes, and his massive body landed silently in the assessment area as if it were nothing.
When he stood up straight, everyone could feel his terror more clearly. He was nearly three meters tall, and his skeleton and muscles still made him look very imposing. He could almost fit two adult men inside him. His whole body exuded a terrifying and fierce aura.
"My name is Jin Yehuan, the top student of the Inner Academy, and a level 85 Power Attack type Soul Master. I'm ashamed to say that I'm already thirty-three years old this year, more than twice your age, so your entrance test is to last three minutes against me."
Jin Yehuan smiled as she looked at Kong Tianxu in front of her. Given such a huge difference in size, the two should have been overwhelmingly dominant in a direct visual comparison. However, Kong Tianxu's posture remained upright, giving no indication of any weakness on his part.
Du Weilun's expression grew increasingly solemn. He knew best how strong Jin Yehuan was, having witnessed his growth and been defeated. Most ordinary six-ring Soul Emperors would lose their ability to resist such terrifying aura, but Kong Tianxu was completely unaffected.
Shrek has indeed encountered an unprecedented formidable opponent! Du Weiren thought to himself in amazement.
Meng Hongchen, who was almost exclaiming in surprise, breathed a sigh of relief. But then, she became anxious again. Could Kong Tianxu really withstand such an opponent with his current cultivation level? Although he was an eighth-level Soul Master, his Soul Power reserves were not as good as those of a true Soul Douluo! Moreover, even a true eighth-level Soul Master would be easily defeated in a short time when facing a Soul Douluo from Shrek Academy.
After all, the advantages brought by soul tools will become smaller and smaller after level 70.
"please."
Kong Tianxu spoke succinctly. He was also very interested in this senior brother who did not appear in the original work. Judging from the other party's age, he was obviously the previous chief disciple before Zhang Lexuan became the senior sister. Therefore, the other party's identity was very intriguing.
Faced with Jin Yehuan's increasingly powerful and profound aura, he felt as if he were a piece of cotton, completely powerless, while Jin Yehuan's eyes gradually brightened.
"We already know about your martial soul. To be fair, my martial soul is the Thick Earth Crocodile King."
"Timer, start!"
With a low shout, Jin Yehuan's eyes gleamed, and he charged forward with one leg, swinging his arm. A dull thud shook the entire assessment area, as if an earth dragon was about to overturn.
Straightforward and fiercely powerful, that's Jin Yehuan's fighting style.
Kong Tianxu felt a strong gust of wind rushing towards him. Facing a palm strike that was powerful enough to shatter steel, he didn't move his feet. Instead, he suddenly turned to the side and narrowly avoided it.
Not only that, but as if aided by Jin Yehuan's whistling palm wind, his body flew backward like a piece of paper, and he dodged the straight punch that followed as if he had rehearsed it in advance.
What a quick reaction! What an accurate calculation!
After two failed attempts to probe, Jin Yehuan had raised the threat posed by Kong Tianxu to a new level.
