Douluo Continent: Heaven rewards diligence, Tang San's defenses are breached by liver damage.

Lin Chuan cursed under his breath and quickly dodged.

He was having a great time fighting Ao Feng, but now he's sweating profusely because of these crazy women. Who can he complain to?

"Holy shit, aren't you a man?"

Seeing that other men were joining in, Lin Chuan's face, hidden behind the ghost mask, finally broke down, revealing a ferocious and terrified expression.

Without time to think, they dodged and fled the main arena as if their lives depended on it.

The figure looked extremely disheveled.

[You made a careful attempt to dodge, and gained some insights; your movement skill proficiency +1]

[You used Observation Haki seriously once and gained some insights. Observation Haki proficiency +1]

"grass!"

Lin Chuan couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.

Their skill levels have all increased, which shows just how crazy these people are.

Just outrageous!

"This is really troublesome. It looks like things will have to calm down for a while."

Lin Chuan wasn't afraid of being targeted, but he didn't want to suffer the same treatment again. Can you imagine a sky full of underwear flying towards you?

You never know who these things really belong to.

The scariest thing is that there were even men among them.

"vomit……"

Just thinking about it made Lin Chuan feel nauseous.

"Mr. Jax, we've finally found you. The supervisor is looking for you."

A staff member suddenly appeared in front of Lin Chuan, his eyes full of respect.

"Lead the way!"

Following behind the other person, I easily made my way to the supervisor's office.

"Hahaha, Mr. Jax, congratulations! I knew you could do it. Thirty-one consecutive wins, and you even defeated a second-ring Soul Master! That's insane!"

The door had barely opened when Shang Sui eagerly stepped forward to greet him.

The middle-aged man's mouth was agape, his face flushed, and he looked extremely excited.

"It was just luck. But Manager Shang, your Great Soul Arena must have made a lot of money this time. It probably won't be long before Manager Shang gets promoted."

"Not at all, they are just minor achievements, all thanks to Mr. Jax."

They exchanged polite words.

At least this challenge against a higher level can be considered a complete success, and both sides got what they wanted.

"Manager Shang, you invited me here again this time, surely it wasn't just to offer congratulations?"

Shang Sui paused abruptly, then smiled helplessly, "As expected, I couldn't hide it from Mr. Jax. Besides congratulating you, there are indeed other matters I wanted to discuss with you. I wonder if Mr. Jax... is interested in joining the Great Soul Arena?"

Sure enough, it came!

As the saying goes, "People fear becoming famous, just as pigs fear growing fat." Long before Lin Chuan's winning streak in the battle against opponents of higher levels, many forces had approached him to invite him to join, but Lin Chuan refused them all.

Now, even the Great Soul Arena has the same idea.

However, all of this was within Lin Chuan's expectations.

The seven great soul master families behind the Great Soul Arena are indeed formidable, but Lin Chuan has no intention of joining any force casually, at least not the Great Soul Arena.

"Thank you, Manager Shang, but I don't have that idea for the time being."

"Well... Mr. Jax, would you like to reconsider? If you're willing to join, you'll definitely receive a lot of training!"

Shang Sui's smile froze, and he quickly continued to persuade her.

However, Lin Chuan still shook his head.

"That's a real shame, but my invitation is still valid. If Mr. Jax changes his mind someday, he can come to me anytime."

"I'll think about it carefully."

Lin Chuan nodded slightly, giving a vague response.

They both understood each other implicitly, and even though they didn't reach a consensus, they didn't fall out, so the result was not bad.

"Manager Shang, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

"Alright, Mr. Jax, welcome back to the Soul Arena next time."

After a brief exchange, Lin Chuan was escorted out of the Great Soul Arena by Shang Sui.

Lin Chuan deliberately avoided the crowd, took off his mask, and then threw away his outer garment before walking on the streets of Sword City again.

Lin Chuan thought he had done everything perfectly, but as he walked, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.

When he left the Great Soul Arena, many people secretly spied on him. With the perception of his Observation Haki, he easily shook off most of them, but two auras still followed him closely. No matter how Lin Chuan tried to evade them, he was unaffected.

"It's really troublesome!"

Lin Chuan let out a soft breath, his eyes filled with helplessness.

He knew he couldn't escape it.

The aura was too powerful; Lin Chuan couldn't sense the specific level of soul power, but without a doubt, it was definitely above level 50. Even from a great distance, it still made his heart alarm bells ring.

Suddenly, the two auras accelerated rapidly and were about to arrive in the blink of an eye.

Lin Chuan's expression changed, and he raised his foot to run away.

Suddenly, his shoulders felt heavy, as if a huge burden had been placed on him. He felt as if he were in mud, and his movements became sluggish.

"Don't get agitated, little one, I mean no harm."

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Flander, and this is my disciple, Ma Hongjun. It's a pleasure to meet you, Jax."

Chapter 26 But I still refused

Flanders?!

Lin Chuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he couldn't help but be startled.

Is that Flander from Shrek Academy in his memory? If it really is that guy, then it's not surprising that he's so powerful.

As Lin Chuan was pondering, he suddenly felt a lightness on his shoulder.

Almost reflexively, he distanced himself, glancing warily at the two people behind him.

A pointed chin, a wide jaw, a hooked nose—his whole face looked like a shoehorn. Add to that a pair of square-framed glasses, and the chubby red-haired boy next to him, and everything made sense.

Upon learning the identity of the visitor, Lin Chuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Flander is arrogant, cunning, and notoriously vengeful, he usually doesn't kill innocent people indiscriminately. He probably came here to invite him to join Shrek Academy.

However, despite thinking this way, Lin Chuan did not completely relax.

Memory can only serve as a reference; reality is ever-changing!

"Greetings, senior. May I ask what brings you to my aid?"

Lin Chuan cupped his hands slightly and took the initiative to speak.

Seeing such a humble yet confident reaction, Flander nodded in satisfaction. "Brother Jax, I saw your battle spirit just now. To be able to defeat a Great Soul Master who is above his level, and without even using a Martial Soul or Soul Skill, is truly impressive."

"What I didn't expect was that you would be so young. Can you tell me how old you are this year?"

Flanders asked softly, his eyes burning with intense desire.

"I am nine years old this year."

Lin Chuan deliberately lied about his age by one year.

Even so, after hearing his answer, Flander's eyes shone even brighter, and he was overjoyed.

Genius, an absolute genius!

Coupled with his terrifying combat abilities, he can definitely be called a monster.

"Good, good, nine years old is great, that's wonderful!"

Flander's eyes gleamed as he adjusted his glasses and asked confidently, "Young man Jax, let me introduce myself again. I am the Dean of Shrek Academy, and I would like to invite you to join Shrek Academy."

Before Lin Chuan could respond, Flander added to his own words.

"You may not have heard of it, but that's okay. Shrek Academy is an advanced Soul Master school with a very strong teaching staff. Moreover, our admission criteria are all for little monsters like you, and I am a level 73 Soul Saint. I am definitely qualified to teach you. How about it, do you want to consider it?"

Flander waved his hand gently, and seven spirit rings instantly rose behind him, revealing an expectant look in his eyes.

If it were an ordinary person, and a Soul Saint suddenly extended an invitation to them, they might impulsively accept.

But Lin Chuan knew very well what Shrek Academy was really like.
