Chapter 182 Heading to Shrek.
"Dean Yan, I didn't expect you to come in person this time. I thought it would be Elder Xuan from your academy leading the team."
Jing Hongchen wore a friendly smile, but his words were sharp and incisive.
Yan Shaozhe is a kind-faced but ruthless person; his ability to control his emotions is already superb.
He showed no anger and smiled, "Elder Xuan has other tasks at the academy. If Dean Hongchen wants to see him, he can come to the academy in person."
Yan Shaozhe couldn't help but think of Xuanzi again and cursed under his breath.
Of the four soul bones that were compensated to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, one was pried out of his hands.
Since Mu En had spoken, he, as the disciple, had no choice but to obey, no matter how much it pained him.
Jing Hongchen chuckled: "I won't be going to Shrek Academy, but I would appreciate it if your academy would take good care of us students during this exchange activity, otherwise Elder Kong might have to make a trip."
"At that time, I might be able to see Elder Xuan again!"
Jing Hongchen's words were a blatant threat, and he was even making fun of Xuanzi, a senior member of the academy. Clearly, Xuanzi had become a laughing stock of Shrek Academy among the Sun Moon Academy members.
Yan Shaozhe's face turned cold upon hearing this, and he was no longer willing to play along with Jing Hongchen. He snorted, "Dean Hongchen, enough with the nonsense, let's begin the student exchange."
"On behalf of the Shrek Academy's Martial Soul System, I welcome your students to come and learn."
Seeing that Yan Shaozhe was clearly unwilling to waste any more words, Jing Hongchen also put away his smile and said seriously, "I also welcome the geniuses of Shrek Academy to come to Sun Moon Academy to study."
In contrast to the verbal sparring between the two deans, the students on the other side also began to compete fiercely, each looking as if they could kill the other.
After that, Jing Hongchen used a flying soul tool to take away the teachers and students from Shrek Academy who were participating in the exchange.
The first appearance of the bionic soul tool in front of them brought them a sense of awe and wonder.
Although Yan Shaozhe was petty, he wouldn't take his anger out on the students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy at this moment.
He knew he didn't have the ability to fly with everyone like Jing Hongchen, so he glanced at everyone and said, "You are all geniuses from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, and you should all have flying soul tools. Let's not waste our time."
A surge of light emanated from him, and a pair of dazzling phoenix wings, seemingly formed from pure light, unfurled from his back.
The wings shimmered with iridescent light, exuding a sacred and noble aura.
It was his martial spirit, the Phoenix of Light!
"Everyone, keep up!"
Yan Shaozhe's gentle tone carried the confidence and composure of a Super Douluo, and his huge wings of light on his back flapped gently.
A gentle yet powerful thrust was generated, and Yan Shaozhe's figure, like a golden streak of light, instantly rose from the ground and soared into the sky.
Its speed was astonishing, and its posture was extremely graceful, fully demonstrating the powerful strength of a Super Douluo.
"What a show-off!"
Ma Sheng pursed his lips and muttered a complaint in his heart.
However, he had to admit that Yan Shaozhe was exceptionally strong, and Shrek Academy truly deserved to be the number one academy on the continent.
He then called out to the students around him, "Kids, let's go."
The next moment, a series of slight mechanical sounds and the buzzing of soul power being injected rang out.
Behind the students of Sun Moon Academy, one after another, exquisitely designed and streamlined flying soul tools were displayed.
The group took to the air and followed closely behind Yan Shaozhe.
Yan Shaozhe kept changing his speed, trying to test the limits of these flying soul tools.
After several changes, he had to admit that these flying soul tools did have their merits.
For Soul Masters below the Contra level who haven't mastered the ability to fly, it is indeed an extremely useful auxiliary tool.
Shrek City is located in the southeast of the Heavenly Soul Empire. To its southeast lies the Star Dou Great Forest, to its east is the Dou Ling Empire, and to its south is the Star Luo Empire.
Shrek Academy is located in the eastern part of Shrek City, and the eastern gate of Shrek City has become the exclusive gate for Shrek Academy.
When everyone landed at the eastern gate of Shrek City with Yan Shaozhe, it was already dark.
Under Yan Shaozhe's leadership, their group naturally moved through the area without any obstacles.
As soon as they passed through the city gate, they saw a series of enormous statues.
Yan Shaozhe proudly introduced, "These three statues in front are of the founders of Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang, Flander, and Liu Erlong, who were once known as the Golden Iron Triangle."
"Behind them are the statues of the original Shrek Seven Devils. They all ascended to godhood back then!"
When he said this, Yan Shaozhe puffed out his chest and looked triumphant; these were all part of their academy's rich heritage.
These words indeed shocked the teachers and students from the Sun and Moon Huang Family Soul Master Academy; the weight of a deity was simply too great.
Even though the incident with Xuanzi had made Shrek Academy no longer seem so unattainable in their eyes.
But gods are legendary beings.
The sun and moon have never appeared, yet Shrek Academy suddenly produced seven of them; it's truly unimaginable.
"Dean Yan!"
A voice came from behind him, and Yan Shaozhe stopped and turned around.
With a quick glance, he spotted Kong Xuan in the crowd.
Although they only officially met today, Yan Shaozhe already knew quite a bit about this super genius.
He broke through to the Soul King level at the age of thirteen, and with the help of a soul tool called Battle Armor, his soul power could even surge to the Soul Saint level.
Last year, in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, it was under his leadership that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy snatched the championship throne that Shrek Academy had held for thousands of years.
Kong Xuan, the young genius of the Sun Moon Empire, displayed talent and strength that refreshed everyone's understanding and even caused psychological trauma to the Shrek Academy students who participated in the competition.
As the dean of the Martial Soul Department, Yan Shaozhe naturally had to investigate this matter.
To be honest, Yan Shaozhe hadn't expected that Riyue would actually send all these geniuses to this exchange activity. This kind of "trust" made him feel embarrassed to use those underhanded tricks.
Yan Shaozhe wore a gentle smile and looked at Kong Xuan with tender eyes, waiting for him to speak next.
Kong Xuan stepped forward and slowly said, "I've also heard about the past of Shrek Academy. The fact that all the original Shrek academy members became gods is truly astonishing."
Yan Shaozhe laughed heartily upon hearing this: "I never expected that the Sun Moon Empire would also have strange legends about Shrek Academy!"
Although the two sides are hostile forces, the young man's yearning is understandable, after all, no soul master can resist the temptation of becoming a god.
He glanced at Ren Jun, thinking it was the legend of this traitor in the School of Communication, and thought to himself that this was a good deed.
The Sun and Moon group behind Kong Xuan looked at each other in bewilderment. They only knew that Tang San, the ancestor of Shrek Academy, had become a god, but they were unaware that the other six members of the Shrek Academy had also become gods.
This is also the result of the Sun Moon Empire deliberately blocking the news, after all, they can't just publicize the strength of their opponent.
Amidst Yan Shaozhe's laughter, Kong Xuan spoke again: "However, Dean Yan, I have some rumors about Shrek Academy that I'd like to know. You should be able to answer my questions, right?"
