"So that's how it is. The academy and Jianmu Douluo have such a deep connection."
Yan Shaozhe understood. The great battle between Shrek Academy and the Main Body Sect was a story from the previous era. At that time, he was young and not very powerful, so he was not privy to the internal secrets.
"Just now, you said that the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower and Zhou Jiren have bet everything on Ling Bai, right..." Elder Mu suddenly asked.
"Yes, teacher." Yan Shaozhe smiled bitterly, "I have to admit, even the academy couldn't have done more than the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower. Just the Ming Emperor Pill, with a ten-thousand-year-old light-type soul beast's inner core as the main ingredient, is something no one in the entire Shrek Academy can refine. The Nine Treasures Crystal Tower is simply crazy. Ling Bai is just a child who hasn't grown up yet!"
Yan Shaozhe couldn't understand why the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower was in such a hurry. "They are crazy..."
Elder Mu agreed with Yan Shaozhe's somewhat exaggerated words, and the old face hidden in the darkness couldn't help but reveal a hint of sorrow: "The actions of the Nine Treasures
Crystal Tower have already indicated one thing, Zhou Jiren...
His time is running out!"
Yan Shaozhe's expression froze, and he hesitated, "Do you mean Jianmu Douluo's lifespan is up? That's impossible. Although plant-type soul masters generally have lower combat capabilities than other soul masters, they are known for their longevity. Jianmu Douluo is a senior from your era. Even if his cultivation is not as profound as yours, he shouldn't leave so soon."
"What you say is not without reason." Elder Mu sighed, "But you forgot one thing. After the great battle with Du Bi Si, I was left with a broken spine and could never walk upright again. How much better could Zhou Jiren be, who fought Du Bi Si alone? The Nine Treasures Crystal Tower and the Main Body Sect are both in the Tianhun Empire, and the pressure they face..." Elder Mu's words were not finished, but Yan Shaozhe instantly understood.
When the Main Body Sect emerged with great confidence, intending to sweep across the Douluo Continent and establish their dominance, they were ultimately forced to swear an oath. Who did they hate the most?
Shrek Academy's Dragon God Douluo Muen!
The Nine Treasures Crystal Tower's Jianmu Douluo Zhou Jiren!
The former, backed by Shrek Academy and the Sea God Pavilion, which is no less powerful than the Main Body Sect, has educated countless strong souls over the millennia. If the Main Body Sect insisted on a life-and-death struggle with Shrek, those strong souls would inevitably intervene, and the Main Body Sect would surely suffer.
Zhou Jiren and the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower are relatively easier to deal with. Both sects are in the Tianhun Empire, and the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower, as an auxiliary sect, relies heavily on external contributions for its combat power. The Main Body Sect has countless ways to target the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower.
It's no exaggeration to say that if Jianmu Douluo Zhou Jiren were to pass away in the morning, Du Bi Si could lead a group of strong souls from the Main Body Sect to wipe out the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower by noon!
They wouldn't wait even half an hour!
"No wonder... no wonder... no wonder..."
Yan Shaozhe repeated "no wonder" three times. Compared to Shrek Academy, the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower is the sect that desperately needs a Six-Winged Angel Douluo to sit in residence!
"Good that you understand."
Elder Mu said, "Ling Bai's room in the Golden Tree is next to Bei Bei's. They are about the same age, so they can support each other in the future."
There are over a thousand students in the inner and outer courts of Shrek Academy, but only two have rooms in the Golden Tree.
The first is the inner court's senior sister Zhang Lexuan, who is exceptionally talented and of excellent character. She is a pre-determined candidate for the Sea God Pavilion, and the entire Sea God Pavilion council has unanimously approved the early establishment of a room for her to help her break through to the Douluo rank using the Golden Tree's abundant light energy.
The second is Bei Bei from the outer court, who benefited from Elder Mu's influence. As a direct descendant of Elder Mu, Bei Bei grew up on Sea God Island, watched over by the elders of the Sea God Pavilion. They turned a blind eye to him living in the Golden Tree.
Ever since he started dating Tang Ya, Bei Bei rarely returned to Sea God Island and mostly stayed in the outer court dormitory.
No one is perfect, and Elder Mu had a private motive in arranging Ling Bai's room next to Bei Bei's. He hoped that the two could be like himself and Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao -both the best of friends and the best of rivals.
A Divine-Level Spirit Soul, having a connection with Bei Bei and Ling Bai would certainly not
be a bad thing.
"Yes, teacher."
Yan Shaozhe agreed to everything.
Elder Mu lowered his eyes, looking somewhat tired, and said, "That's all. Go back if you have no other business."
Yan Shaozhe bowed and quietly left the room. After leaving the Sea God Pavilion, he looked back in the direction of Elder Mu and muttered, "Teacher, you are right. My vision can never reach half of yours. Shrek Academy is a transcendent existence above the three great empires and must have a sufficiently powerful Sea God Pavilion head in residence. Jianmu Douluo's lifespan is coming to an end, and so is yours.
I know I cannot take your place, and neither can Elder Xuan. Therefore, the academy needs an heir! I will use my methods to keep him in Shrek..."
Inside the Sea God Pavilion, Elder Mu turned over and smiled helplessly, "Silly child, when will you be more composed..."
...
The next morning, Ling Bai woke up early from his meditation, put on the red uniform of the Shrek inner court, and "climbed mountains and crossed rivers" to the cafeteria to order a free breakfast. With Uncle Mo's repeated "Is it enough, child?" he successfully ate double the
portion.
Standing at the cafeteria door, Ling Bai couldn't help but fall into deep thought. It seemed that the cafeteria uncle being too enthusiastic wasn't a good thing either!
Yesterday, Han Ruoru took him on a tour of Sea God Island. He had experienced the Soul Duel Arena and the Simulated Training Ground, and glanced at the teaching buildings but found no
interesting courses.
"Let's go to the Inner Academy Library."
After some thought, Ling Bai decided on a destination. The Shrek Inner Academy Library
houses a vast collection of books, many of which are unique to the continent. Perhaps he
could find useful references there.
The Inner Academy Library has two floors, with oak bookshelves nearly reaching the ceiling, filled with genuine and valuable knowledge, the crystallization of human history.
It was quiet, unexpectedly quiet, with no one in the library.
Ling Bai was surprised, "Do Shrek students and teachers not read books?"
He recalled the university library from his previous life, where books were used to hold seats,
but at least people had a learning attitude.
Shrek, not so much!
Ling Bai wandered through the rows of bookshelves but, to his regret, did not find the books
he was looking for on the first floor.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He slowly climbed the stairs, planning to check the second floor. A moment later, he reached a
door made of rosewood. The door frame was equipped with a Soul Conductor Access System, indicating that the second floor was a restricted area requiring certain permissions.
Ling Bai took out his school emblem and gently pressed it against the system.
"I'm sorry, your permissions are insufficient."
A clear and pleasant but somewhat familiar female voice spoke with unusual coldness.
"...Alright."
Ling Bai withdrew his school emblem and turned to leave. At that moment, a large black
book, carrying a faint, elegant fragrance, landed in Ling Bai's hands.
A woman's relaxed and slightly teasing voice echoed in his ears, "Hold it for me, don't drop it
on the ground." (End of Chapter)
