In Douluo Continent, I am the mastermind behind the scenes.

In the compartment of the Soul Guidance Train, Xiao Ya crossed her arms, leaned against the wall, and closed her eyes to rest. To be honest, she didn't want to go on this trip to Shrek Inner City.

The situation on the mainland is still unclear. Xiao Ya, a lowly nobody, has no desire to get involved in the struggle between major forces. If it weren't for Ma Weilan's senior sister, Lingfeng Douluo Chen Wuying, who approached her, offered her an irresistible reward, and backed her up on behalf of the Donghai City authorities, she would have reluctantly taken on the role of team leader.

There was nothing she could do; Spirit Wind Douluo had given her far too much, and she simply couldn't refuse.

Soon, the soul-guided train carrying Huo Yuhao and his group entered Shrek City.

After getting off the train, Xiao Ya didn't just find an inn to stay at at the station like Wu Changkong did in the original story. Instead, she led the seven people to the Tulip Hotel, the closest hotel to Shrek Inner City.

The signboard of the Tulip Hotel has a history of 20,000 years. According to legend, it was founded by the grandmother of the Nine-Colored Goddess Ning Rongrong, who is also the mother of Ning Fengzhi, Madam Ning.

Ironically, the Tulip Hotel brand actually outlived the Qibao Ning family.

Is the arrival of the Battle Armor Era truly a step forward for the Soul Master world?

However, amplification-type soul skills cannot provide a secondary amplification for Battle Armor Masters and Mech Masters. Throughout the entire "Legend of the God of Destruction," only two Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul masters have appeared: one is a Shrek Academy student who appeared as an exhibition match in the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition, and the other is Ye Zhi, one of the Eight Heavenly Kings of the Star Luo Empire's Monster Academy.

Moreover, both of them are minor supporting characters with little screen time.

Huo Yuhao stood in front of the Tulip Hotel, looking at the five gilded characters above his head, and couldn't help but sigh.

Recalling the class assignment ceremony in his previous life, when Ning Tian held up the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda and used it to smash people, Huo Yuhao felt a strange pang of sorrow well up in his heart.

Can't a Soul Master use the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to smash people?

As one of the best among top-tier martial souls, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is definitely much heavier than other martial souls of the same level. Even a blunt knife can kill someone, so why can't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda kill someone?

It's like a setting, just like blacksmiths need to be trained from a young age. The setting that Soul Masters of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda cannot have combat power is engraved in the marrow of the Soul Master world.

"Yuhao, what are you standing there for? Let's go!"

As a slightly effeminate voice rang out, Huo Yuhao came back to his senses, his gaze meeting Ma Weilan's.

"Oh, well, when I saw the words 'tulip,' I was just reminded of my late mother. Her name contained the character 'fragrant.'"

Huo Yuhao didn't want to waste any more words on this matter, so he quickly stepped forward, leaned close to Ma Weilan's ear, and whispered, "Weilan, I heard... Shrek Academy's admission requirements are extremely strict. Silver Moon Douluo Cai Yue'er is willful and capricious, completely disregarding Shrek Academy's rules and regulations. Even her grading of applicants is arbitrary. If we encounter unfair treatment, how... should we face Silver Moon Douluo?"

Ma Weilan laughed and said, "I thought it was something serious. It's just a minor Silver Moon Douluo, hehe. Don't worry, if he dares to treat us unfairly, we'll turn around and go to the Spirit Pagoda to expose what he's done. Let everyone see what kind of person the Dean of the Outer Court of Shrek Academy really is. What does it matter if we're from a big country or a small country, or if there's any fairness in suppressing others? If a law enforcer can't make impartial decisions, he's simply not in the right when it comes to righteousness!"

"Yuhao, Cai Yue'er may be a bit willful and capricious, but she should be perfectly intelligent. She knows who she can mess with and who she can't. The thing you're worried about probably won't happen, and if it does, we're not afraid."

After saying that, Ma Weilan pulled Huo Yuhao into the Tulip Hotel.

The waiting time was always long. Since they were unfamiliar with the place, Huo Yuhao and his group did not dare to go out shopping rashly. Even Xu Xiaoyan, who was the most active, stayed quietly in her room. After all, in Shrek City, any young person could be an elder of the Sea God Pavilion or a descendant of a high-ranking family in the Spirit Pagoda. If something unpleasant happened, would you endure it or argue?

After careful consideration, Huo Yuhao ordered his friends to stay obediently at the Tulip Hotel and rest up to prepare for the Shrek Academy entrance exam.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Led by the staff of Shrek Academy, Huo Yuhao and his six companions arrived at the registration office of the outer academy.

The change of assessment content was inevitable. Due to the cold war between the two camps, Shrek Academy's enrollment was greatly impacted. The Sea God Pavilion's higher-ups had no choice but to relax the enrollment restrictions. Since the talent of those applying to become Soul Masters was somewhat lacking, the assessment content would definitely have to be changed accordingly. This was something that Huo the Great God King couldn't have been unaware of.

What are the new assessment criteria? Will Cai Yue'er still be solely responsible for scoring?

After waiting for about two hours, Huo Yuhao and his group, led by the white-haired girl Shen Yi, entered an empty room. There was only a table in the room and three examiners sitting behind the table.

Led by Huo Yuhao, the seven people faced the three examiners, clasped their hands in a fist salute, and leaned forward slightly to show their respect.

"Fourteen years old, with a soul power of level forty-one, and the exact same name and martial soul as that other one. And then the God Realm disappeared... could he be the real Spirit Ice Douluo?"

Cai Yue'er's gaze remained fixed on Huo Yuhao. Even if he wasn't the real Lingbing Douluo, he had already crossed three major levels in just three years. Shrek Academy absolutely couldn't miss out on such a prodigy.

And... that child named Tang Wulin, Tang Wulin, Tang Wutong, still has the Blue Silver Grass martial soul, and is following beside what appears to be the real Spirit Ice Douluo...

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

If Huo Yuhao is the real Lingbing Douluo, then... Tang Wulin is the son of the Sea God!

Thinking of this, Cai Yue'er said with a smile, "I've looked at the information of you little guys. You meet the admission requirements of Shrek Academy, so you can be exempted from the assessment. Hmm... how about this, you tell me your opinions on Shrek Academy, and that will be your assessment."

"Opinion?" Gu Yuena curled her lip and said irritably, "I wonder which aspect Your Majesty Silver Moon is referring to? Did Shrek Academy resort to many shady methods to win the competition, even openly cheating in front of everyone?"

"You, you're being insolent!"

Upon hearing Gu Yuena's words, Cai Yue'er jumped up from her chair, staring intently at the incredibly beautiful girl in front of her.

Perhaps it was the influence of the world's consciousness, but even though the plot had been completely altered, Cai Yue'er and Gu Yuena still ended up facing off. (End of Chapter)
