Douluo Dragon King: I am the Lord of the Abyss, the King of Eternal Night.

Chapter 406: Shrek Academy to be Attacked! Reactions from All Sides!
"Clang! Clang!"

The pleasant metallic scraping sound rang out in an orderly fashion. Mu Ye's body trembled slightly, and his entire mecha trembled like dragon scales. The dark gold four-character battle armor was perfectly embedded in it, as if it were made by nature. A blood-red cloak moved without wind.

"Report, boss! The mech is charging normally!"

"The four-character battle armor is now fully inlaid!"

"The boss's physical functions are all normal!"

"The Aiban missile is fully loaded!"

"Cheers!"

Xiao Hong's gentle figure appeared on the blue soul guidance screen in front of Mu Ye, her face beaming with a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Hong." Mu Ye felt the surging power brought about by the fusion of the mecha and the battle armor, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and said softly.

"Serving the boss is Xiaohong's mission!" Xiaohong said happily with a smile.

"Master! Master! You've emerged from seclusion!"

At that moment, Aruheng's joyful voice came from outside the meditation room.

"Let's go, it's time to get out and stretch our legs after being in seclusion for so long." Makino stretched his limbs, gently tapped his chest, and his entire mecha and battle armor instantly contracted, forming a ring in front of him.

Mechs and battle armor each have their own merits. Although mechs are somewhat cumbersome and cannot directly enhance a Soul Master's strength, they can be equipped with various Soul Tools, which can help Soul Masters deal large-scale damage.

Battle armor, on the other hand, directly affects Soul Masters, helping them improve various attributes and fight against opponents of higher levels.

Now that Muye has fused the four-word battle armor and the god-level mecha, he can enjoy both the self-improvement brought by the battle armor and the powerful auxiliary attack of the mecha, achieving a result greater than the sum of its parts.

"Clang!" As the heavy metal door of the training room opened, Mu Ye immediately saw Aruheng, whose face was full of excitement.

"Not bad, not bad. It seems you haven't been slacking off and have actually cultivated to the third level of the Flawless Golden Body. You've become quite a muscle giant."

Mu Ye patted Aruheng, whose body was covered in well-defined muscles, and said with a smile.

Aruheng scratched his head, chuckled, and then asked with concern, "Master, did you break through to the Limit Douluo Quasi-God level during your seclusion this time?"

"Silly boy, talking nonsense again. Your master only broke through to the Limit Douluo realm a few years ago. How could you have reached the Quasi-God realm so quickly?" Mu Ye's lips twitched slightly as he glared at Aruheng.

He also wanted to break through to the level of a quasi-god, but reality simply didn't allow it. Moreover, his main purpose in this seclusion was to fuse his mecha and battle armor, breaking the constraint that it was difficult to control the mecha and battle armor simultaneously.

"However..." Seeing Aruheng's slightly disappointed expression, Mu Ye changed the subject, "Although I haven't reached the Quasi-God realm yet, I'm no weaker than a Quasi-God!"

"Master is mighty!" Upon hearing this, Aruheng's disappointed expression immediately brightened, and he murmured in a simple and honest voice:
"Master, with your immense strength, you no longer need to worry about those War Gods of the Federation's War God Temple..."

"Hmm?" Makino frowned, his eyes turning dangerous.

"The God of War of the Temple of War? What's going on? What happened while I was in seclusion? And what about your junior brother?"

"About a year ago, the Temple of War Gods suddenly sent several War Gods to keep a close watch on our Body Sect and monitor our movements at all times."

The Cold Tower Master had also asked them to leave, but these War Gods claimed they were acting on the orders of the War God Temple Master. Furthermore, these War Gods hadn't done anything particularly outrageous; they were only keeping an eye on our Body Sect. Therefore, Aunt Leng didn't have a particularly good solution, and besides, Aunt Leng was also currently vying for power with the Ancient Clan…”

"The Temple of War is watching us?" Upon hearing this, Mu Ye frowned even more deeply. It would be strange if he felt comfortable if his sect was being watched by others.

"What's wrong with Chen Xinjie? Why is he targeting my Body Sect like this? Could it be that his old flame was dumped by someone from my Body Sect?" Mu Ye cursed inwardly.

As the Federation's sharpest weapon, the Temple of War has the responsibility of monitoring all major forces, but it is clearly now specifically targeting their Body Sect.

"Is there anything else?" Makino then asked.

"There's also a news report from the Federation that warned its citizens to be wary of menacing men wearing black hoods, and even intentionally or unintentionally pointed out that our Body Sect attacked Mingde Hall ten thousand years ago," Aruheng said sullenly.

"Good! It seems someone is deliberately targeting our Body Sect." Upon hearing this, a murderous glint instantly appeared in Mu Ye's eyes.

For a sect to continue its lineage, the most important thing is its disciples. If the Body Sect wants to revive, it will definitely need to recruit Soul Masters with Body Martial Souls in the future. However, the Federation's announcement is a smear campaign against them and an attempt to cut off the Body Sect's path to revival.

Although he liked robbing the rich to help the poor and buying things for free, that was for Shrek Academy and Tang Sect, after all, it was something their ancestor Huo Yuhao owed to their Body Sect.

“Master, what’s most infuriating is that after the news subtly mentioned the Body Sect, it immediately went on to praise Shrek Academy’s glorious achievements in teaching and nurturing students,” Aruheng continued.

"Hmph, no rush, they're just a bunch of clowns." A glint of shrewdness flashed in Mu Ye's eyes as he slowly said:
"Since they're so willing to promote it, let's give them a complete reversal!"

"Once I storm Shrek Academy and expose to the world Shrek Academy's encroachment on the secrets of my Body Sect's Body, this will be the best sword to pierce Shrek Academy!"

"Alright!" Aruheng nodded emphatically. During this year, his junior brother was away and his master was in seclusion. He could only endure these things, but now he had to vent his anger!
Then, Aruheng asked curiously, "Master, what about those War Gods from the War God Temple?"

“We can’t interfere in matters of the Federation, but there are people who can,” Makino said softly.

He knew that Dong Zian was preparing to make a surprise appearance in the next federal election. In his opinion, even if he couldn't get rid of Chen Xinjie, at least the pressure on their side would be reduced.

"Oh, oh." Aruheng nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

"Where is your junior brother?" Mu Ye asked with concern. His Body Sect was being targeted, and he was very worried that something might happen to his two disciples.

“Junior Brother was admitted to Shrek Academy…” Aruheng said slowly.

"What did Shrek Academy do to Xiao Xiu?!" Upon hearing this, Mu Ye quickly moved closer to Aruheng, exuding a terrifying aura.

"Master, please let me finish. Junior Brother has been taken to Devil Island by Shrek Academy for seclusion," Aruheng said hurriedly.

"Devil's Island?" Makino raised an eyebrow, a hint of worry appearing in his eyes. He'd heard that the old devils on Devil's Island were masters of manipulating people's hearts; what if Xiao Xiu ran into them...?

Will he be tortured by the Seven Old Demons...?

“Master, you don’t need to worry too much about Junior Brother. His Holiness the Holy Spirit has assured you that Junior Brother will be fine,” Aruheng comforted him upon seeing the situation.

“Her Majesty the Holy Spirit Yali…” Mu Ye murmured, nodding slightly, “Since the Holy Spirit Douluo has assured us, then there should be no problem.”

Although Yali is now a member of Shrek Academy, Makino still trusts her quite a bit.

After all, Yali was willing to burn her own lifespan to save those unfamiliar federal citizens, so he still trusted Yali's character.

"What a pity, such a good healing-type soul master of the continent has entered Shrek Academy. If only he could come to my Body Sect..." Mu Ye thought to himself.

However, he knew that Yali wasn't someone who cared about resources, and it was impossible to get her to come by offering resources unless it was based on emotional connection...

After all, it was Yun Ming who snatched Ya Li from the Federation back then...

"Master, Master, when are we going to defeat Shrek Academy?" At this moment, Aruheng was already quite impatient.

"How long has your junior brother been on Devil Island?"

Makino's eyes flashed.

“It’s been over a year,” Aruheng said after a moment’s thought. “I guess he’ll be back soon.”

"Alright, let's wait for your junior brother to come back, then we'll storm Shrek Academy and expose the true face beneath his glory!" Mu Ye said in a deep voice, emphasizing each word.

"Great!" Aruheng said, rubbing his hands together eagerly.

"Beep beep beep!" At this moment, Aruheng's communication soul tool suddenly rang.

Upon seeing the person displayed above, Aruheng's eyes lit up, and he looked at his master, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

"Who is it? Why are you blushing?" Mu Ye laughed and scolded, looking at Aruheng's state.

"It was Shi Mengshan who called..." Aruheng chuckled, "And it was Shi Mengshan who secretly told me about the things the War God Temple was doing against the Body Sect..."

"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed in Mu Ye's eyes as he gave his disciple a deep look.

It seems that Aruheng and Shi Mengshan have gotten together.

Unexpectedly, Hu Jie's words back then actually came true, and Aruheng really did marry a War God from the Temple of War!
"Alright, alright, go pick it up." Mu Ye then waved with a smile.

"Hey!" Aruheng walked out of the training room in an instant.

"That's great, Ah Heng's major life event is finally settled." Mu Ye said with satisfaction, watching Ah Heng's retreating figure.

But the next moment, Mu Ye's eyes darkened, revealing a hint of cold light.

"Then, next up, it's time to take on Shrek Academy!"

Soon, Mu Ye picked up the communication soul tool and made the first call to Zhen Hua.

"Cook, what's wrong?" Zhenhua's voice immediately came from the other end of the communication soul tool.

"I want to get into Shrek Academy, and I need your help," Makino said succinctly.

"Time," Zhenhua asked after a moment of silence.

They've known each other for so long that some things don't need to be said.

We're already true brothers, in my heart.

Immediately afterwards, Makino called the second one.

"Clan Chief Yuanen, the Body Sect and Shrek Academy have some grudges that need to be resolved. Please come over then."

"No problem, as long as it's a fight against Shrek Academy, I'll stand by them!"

In the Yuanen family, Yuanen Zhentian laughed heartily.

Since they have allied with the Body Sect, their Yuanen family will definitely help the Body Sect if it needs anything!
Then, Muye called Leng Yaozhu again, and there was still no problem.

Then, Makino called Hu Jie.

"Stop guarding your dilapidated yard and come to Shrek City immediately."

Shrek Academy is not weak, so he must be fully prepared. Hu Jie has the identity of the Tang Sect, so he can adapt flexibly if there are any unexpected events.

Outside the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Hu Jie slowly disconnected the communication soul guide.

"I didn't expect Mu Ye to emerge from seclusion so quickly." Hu Jie's eyes flickered. After glancing at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he prepared to head to Shrek City.

He couldn't handle these magical herbs by himself, so he would wait until Mu Ye finished defeating Shrek Academy and then invite Mu Ye to join him.

I'm sure they'll be able to make a clean getaway.
