After a brief moment of tenderness, the zuzong and Xiao Wu returned to the zu zong's courtyard.
He had assumed Xiao Wu would cling to him all night, but he didn't mind, planning to call Zhu Zhuqing the next day to distribute the immortal herbs and, incidentally, publicly announce his relationship with Xiao Wu. After all, he wanted to treat everyone equally! However,
the outcome was unexpected.
When Xiao Wu heard him mention that Ning Rongrong had asked Sword Douluo to rescue her, and that Shrek Academy might have gone to Blue Tyrant Academy in Heaven Dou City, she immediately understood. For
the first time ever, Xiao Wu kicked the clan leader out of the room.
In her words, although she was reluctant to share the zuzong with another woman, Zhu Zhuqing had traveled a long way to find him, and their relationship had been established earlier than hers.
Therefore, she decided to let the zuzong go and let him report his safety to Zhu Zhuqing.
Looking at the completely dark night, the zuzong smiled bitterly. Fortunately, Heaven Dou City had no gate restrictions, otherwise, the zuzong would have had a hard time getting in.
Arriving at the gates of Heaven Dou City, Zu Zong glanced at the notices posted there and noticed that the recruitment notice for Blue Tyrant Academy from two months ago had been taken down. He thought to himself, "Looks like Blue Tyrant Academy has probably been renamed Shrek Academy now!"
Following the address he remembered from the notice board, Zu Zong asked a few passersby for directions and quickly found his destination—Blue Tyrant Academy, or rather, Shrek Academy.
Looking at the ten-meter-high gatehouse carved from white marble, the original words "Blue Tyrant Advanced Soul Master Academy" had been removed, replaced by nine large, gilded characters: Shrek Advanced Soul Master Academy. Seeing the
name changed to Shrek Academy above the gate, Zu Zong smiled wryly. "Fate is truly a wondrous thing."
Upon reaching the gate of Shrek Academy, Clan Ancestor immediately found the guard post next to the gatekeeper.
"Young man, you don't seem to be a student of the academy?" The guard on duty was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He had been at Blue Tyrant Academy for over ten years before it was renamed Shrek Academy. Including the newly arrived "Shrek Seven Devils," he remembered the appearance of almost every student in the academy.
The zuzong nodded, having no interest in playing the old tricks of showing off with the gatekeeper. Besides, the gatekeeper's attitude was upright; he wasn't someone who looked down on people. The zuzong said, "I'm a student from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, here to see my girlfriend, Zhu Zhuqing. She seems to be a freshman who came with your Dean Flander."
"Zhu Zhuqing, Dean Flander—" The middle-aged man's face showed a thoughtful expression as he began to recall.
The next moment, the middle-aged gatekeeper's eyes lit up. "Are you talking about the new Dean Flander?"
Zu Zong replied, "Yes, they came from Soto City. Dean Flander seems to know your former Dean Liu Erlong."
Hearing that Zu Zong's information was basically correct, the gatekeeper had no doubts. "Alright, register here now."
As he spoke, the gatekeeper called over a nearby female student to act as Zu Zong's guide.
Strolling along the academy path, Zu Zong looked at the female student standing next to him and smiled, "Then I'll trouble this young lady."
The female student was clearly the introverted type. Although not stunningly beautiful, she was still quite pretty. Facing a handsome young man like Zu Zong, she was now blushing deeply, as if steam was rising from her hair.
The pretty female student said timidly, "No—you're welcome."
Zu Zong smiled and didn't say anything more.
A moment later, the two arrived at the entrance of the girls' dormitory.
The female student stopped and looked at Zu Zong.
"I'm very sorry, male students are not allowed in the girls' dormitory. So please wait here for a moment. I happen to know where the new female students live, I'll go and call Zhu Zhuqing down for you."
As she spoke, the pretty female student quickened her pace and ran into the dormitory.
Zu Zong smiled slightly and murmured, "She really is a shy little girl."
The sudden appearance of a boy downstairs in the girls' dormitory naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Zu Zong was still dressed in a gorgeous black outfit. At thirteen years old, he had grown considerably taller than half a year ago, exceeding 1.75 meters and approaching 1.8 meters. His long blue-silver hair fell to his shoulders, and his skin was even fairer than it had been half a year ago. He was very handsome, vaguely resembling the former Blue Silver Emperor. If Ah Yin hadn't died, standing next to him, people would probably mistake them for mother and son or siblings.
In no time, Zu Zong was surrounded by girls from the academy.
Even with Zu Zong's composure, he was overwhelmed. Back at Notting Academy, with Xiao Wu by his side, no girl dared approach him. At Tian Dou Royal Academy, after joining the Royal Fighting Team, even fewer girls dared to approach him. Now, at Blue Tyrant Academy—no, it should be called Shrek Academy now—without Xiao Wu by his side and without his Royal Fighting Team affiliation, a swarm of girls suddenly appeared.
Zu Zong couldn't help but sigh, "Being handsome is a kind of trouble!"
The commotion Zu Zong caused at the girls' dormitory entrance naturally attracted the attention of the other boys in the academy.
Sure enough, Tai Long, representing the single aristocrats, arrived with a group of followers.
Surrounded by his followers, the girls quickly made way for Tai Long.
Only then did Tai Long get a clear look at Zu Zong's appearance, and what he saw almost made his eyes pop out. Where did this monster come from?! He was even more handsome than the newcomers Dai Mubai and Oscar from a few days ago.
Even so, no one could threaten his "school heartthrob" throne! Dai Mubai was an effeminate man, supposedly disliking women and only liking men. Oscar was just a food-type soul master and wouldn't dare compete with him for the "school heartthrob" position. As for others like Tang San? Ugly ass, not even qualified to carry his shoes.
Now! A very popular pretty boy has arrived, seriously threatening his "school heartthrob" status.
Tailong's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said in a deep voice, "Kid, I heard you've come to our academy to cause trouble?"
Look at that idiotic tone, anyone with eyes could tell he's here to pick a fight.
"What do you want?" The zuzong raised an eyebrow, looking in the direction of the voice, and saw a burly young man, about 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders and a short chestnut-red hair that looked very spirited.
The moment Zu Zong saw the other person, a thought popped into his head—why does this idiot look like a gorilla?
