Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 175: A clichéd story, accumulated hatred
Seeing Xuan Zi making such an arrangement, Yan Shaozhe asked again: "But don't we want them to stay in Shrek Academy? Will this make them think that we are deliberately targeting them?"

Xuan Zi smiled and shook his head, saying, "No! They are still young. People of this age are full of blood and drive. Often, being straightforward will gain their approval more easily."

Xuan Zi is very confident.

This kind of self-confidence may be inherited from Shrek Academy.

Back then, didn't the great Sea God, one of the original Shrek Seven Devils, fight a Soul Sage-level Zhao Wuji when he first entered school? And didn't he lead Shrek Academy to glory after that?
There is a precedent to follow!
So, fighting as soon as you meet is not a problem, the problem is how to deal with it after the fight!

As long as it is handled properly, nothing will be a problem!

"Shaozhe! You go and handle this matter, call Mei'er along, and call it... a friendly match!" Xuan Zi thought about Tang San, and couldn't help but hope that Jiang Shengyu would become another "Tang San" who would lead Shrek to a more glorious future.

"Yes, Master Xuan." Yan Shaozhe nodded and said goodbye.

Watching Yan Shaozhe leave, Du Bu Si stood beside Xuan Zi and said to him, "Your Martial Spirit Department's Dean is not up to the task. Do you plan to hand over the position of Sea God Pavilion Master to him after you leave?"

"Who else could we have? Mr. Song is old, and Zhang Lexuan's forceful absorption of the 100,000-year spirit ring has damaged her essence. Even breaking through to the Super Douluo realm is hopeless. If something happens to me, who else can I give it to if not him while Beibei is still growing up?"

Xuan Zi sighed and said to Du Bu Si, "We all know about Shaozhe's personality issues, but there's nothing we can do about it."

When the new generation has not yet grown up, Shrek Academy really has no better choice than Yan Shaozhe.

"In that case, the predicament of your Shrek Academy is not much different from that of our Benti Sect!" Du Bu Si suddenly laughed.

Xuan Zi glanced at him and said, "Old Poison, what are you so happy about? Even if Shrek is not good enough, we still have geniuses like Beibei and Jiang Qingtong, and there is also Jiang Shengyu who may join us! The future is much better than your Benti Sect."

Upon hearing this, Du Bu Si said to him, "I don't know what the relationship is between Jiang Shengyu and Di Tian yet."

Xuan Zi shook his head and said, "As long as he is not a transformed soul beast, no matter how he is related to Emperor Tian, I believe he will always stand on the side of humans. That is enough."

Seeing Xuan Zi so confident, Du Bushi didn't say much.

In the hundreds of thousands of years of history that Douluo Continent had, there had never been a single person who abandoned humanity for soul beasts. Furthermore, soul masters needed to hunt soul beasts to cultivate, which naturally put them in opposition to soul beasts.

In Xuanzi's opinion, the relationship between Jiang Shengyu and Di Tian is most likely just a coincidence.

In the evening, by the Sea God Lake, Jiang Qingtong and Meng Hongchen accompanied Ai Cao for a walk.

After the two people's indirect questioning, Ai Cao explained why she reacted so strongly to the provocation of Ning Tian and others.

Looking at the Sea God Lake, which was shimmering orange-red in the setting sun, Ai Cao said to Meng Hongchen and Jiang Qingtong, "Actually, I have a brother whose dream is to study at Shrek Academy."

Upon hearing this tone, Jiang Qingtong immediately understood the secret. And what Ai Cao said next confirmed Jiang Qingtong's suspicions. Her brother wanted to attend Shrek Academy because he didn't have a high aptitude for soul guides, but his martial spirit was of good quality.

However, in order to enter Shrek Academy, one needs a letter of recommendation from the mayor of the main city. As people from the Sun-Moon Empire, where can they get a letter of recommendation from the mayor of the main city of the three kingdoms in Douluo Continent?
Ai Cao's brother was unwilling to give up, so he resolutely left the Sun Moon Empire and came to the three countries that originally belonged to Douluo Continent to look for opportunities. However, he was gone for ten years. At first, there was news coming back, but later there was no news at all.

It was a very clichéd story, but it made Ai Cao harbor resentment towards Shrek Academy ever since then.

"The continent's number one academy… but to enroll, you need a letter of recommendation from the city lord, no matter how exceptionally talented you are! Commoners are commoners, there's no chance of getting in! Is this academy truly worthy of being the continent's number one academy?"

Ai Cao kicked a stone into the air, creating a crack in space from the side, and extended a chain glowing purple to break it.

Looking at the broken stones, Ai Cao said, "So, I'm really annoyed with those Shrek students! Their talents might not even be as good as mine! But because of their family background, they were able to be recommended to attend school, and then they're so proud of the Shrek name!"

After listening to Ai Cao's story, Jiang Qingtong and Meng Hongchen fell silent.

Not long after, Meng Hongchen said slowly, "Then give them a good beating!"

"Thank you, Junior Sister Hongchen." Ai Cao bowed to Meng Hongchen to express her gratitude.

On the third day, Yan Shaozhe found Jiang Shengyu and others with the event schedule.

"Huh? Not only do the people from the outer courtyard want to challenge us, but the people from the inner courtyard also want to join in the fun? They are divided into two teams. Do we have to play two games?" Xiao Hongchen was a little surprised after seeing the content of the competition arrangement.

Yan Shaozhe explained, "This is just a friendly match, a competition between students from the inner and outer courtyards. It will help the college understand each of your situations and formulate a more comprehensive teaching plan. You will also be given enough rest time during the competition! Back then, during the final exam for freshmen, Qingtong, along with Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao, challenged hundreds of freshmen from the outer courtyard!"

Hearing this, Xiao Hongchen's competitive spirit was immediately aroused. He said, "I have no objection to this arrangement! Qingtong can do it, so can I! It's just a fight between the inner and outer courtyards, so bring it on!"

Seeing Xiao Hongchen eager to try, Yan Shaozhe laughed, then looked at Jiang Shengyu and the others and asked, "What are your opinions?"

"We have no objection. Since the geniuses of Shrek Academy are not happy with our arrival, we will use our strength to prove to them that we are qualified to study at this academy! Moreover, we are more qualified than them."

Jiang Shengyu had a smile on his face and looked calm.

Seeing Jiang Shengyu's confident smile, Yan Shaozhe nodded slightly and said, "I understand. The notification for the friendly match will be issued tomorrow, and the time is set for half a month. Prepare well."

After Yan Shaozhe left, Xiao Hongchen patted Jiang Shengyu on the shoulder and asked, "Does this count as challenging the entire new generation of the continent's number one academy on our own?"

Jiang Shengyu nodded and said, "Of course."

"Then we are going to be famous!" Xiao Hongchen clasped his hands together and stretched.
