Douluo: The Dragon King - I Planted the Divine Tree in Douluo.

Chapter 244 Gu Yue Arrives!

As soon as Xu Xiaoyan opened the door, she saw a cool and elegant figure standing in the doorway.

Gu Yue was wearing a blue and white casual home outfit, her arm suspended in mid-air, preparing to press the doorbell.

"Sister Guyue, you've arrived!"

Upon seeing Gu Yue, Xu Xiaoyan's eyes instantly lit up like a cat seeing a small fish.

She rushed over with a look of surprise and affectionately took Gu Yue's arm.

After three years apart, Gu Yue was even more refined and capable than she remembered, which made her like her even more.

Gu Yue nodded slightly.

Although she left Donghai City and returned to the Spirit Pagoda three years ago, her connection with Xu Xiaoyan has never been broken.

"Sister Gu Yue, you have no idea how awful Su Mo is?"

Xu Xiaoyan clung to Gu Yue's arm, complaining to Gu Yue like a wronged woman: "I just wanted to find out how you two got together, and he actually tried to break my legs."

Looking at Xu Xiaoyan, who was chattering away, Gu Yue's gaze softened considerably.

Three years have passed, and Xu Xiaoyan's personality remains exactly the same as before.

Then Gu Yue raised her head and calmly swept her gaze over Wu Siduo and Su Mo.

However, when Gu Yue saw Wu Siduo's flushed face and somewhat disheveled clothes, she frowned almost imperceptibly.

Xu Xiaoyan immediately realized something was wrong and quickly raised her hand to explain, "Sister Guyue, don't misunderstand! I was just playing around with Sister Siduo."

Gu Yue's expression softened considerably, and she then politely nodded to Wu Siduo.

"You've come!"

Su Mo raised his hand to greet Gu Yue.

"Um!"

Gu Yue nodded calmly to Su Mo, then slowly said, "Shrek's admissions don't officially begin until tomorrow. We'll have some free time afterward. What do you plan to do?"

"Of course, it's up to you, the half-local, to decide!"

Su Mo shrugged.

Gu Yue was visibly taken aback when she heard Su Mo hand over the decision-making power to her.

Although she had been in Shrek City for three years, she had spent most of those three years cultivating in the Spirit Pagoda, only occasionally going out for a drive with Leng Yaozhu.

She didn't know much more about Shrek City than Su Mo and the others.

"Me! Me! Me!"

While Gu Yue hesitated, Xu Xiaoyan quickly jumped out with her hands raised.

Su Mo and Gu Yue looked at Xu Xiaoyan with curiosity. Xu Xiaoyan looked smug and said, "I have already prepared a guide to conquering Shrek City!"

As the most prestigious city in the Douluo Continent, Shrek City had long been a place Xu Xiaoyan had longed to visit.

Therefore, I had already searched online for various check-in and photo spots.

"OK!"

Seeing Xu Xiaoyan volunteer herself, Su Mo nodded in agreement.

Then she looked at Gu Yue and Wu Siduo, "You two don't have any objections, right?"

"without!"

Gu Yue and Wu Siduo both shook their heads.

Xu Xiaoyan, holding Gu Yue and Wu Siduo, cheered excitedly, "Let's set off now!"

After leaving the hotel, led by Xu Xiaoyan, Su Mo and the others took a taxi towards the center of Shrek City.

Originally, Shrek City's center was Shrek Academy, but with the establishment of the Spirit Pagoda, Shrek City underwent another large-scale expansion at Huo Yuhao's suggestion.

The entire area of ​​the old Shrek City was incorporated into Shrek Academy, becoming the current Inner City, located in the eastern part of the new Shrek City.

"Young men, you're here to take the Shrek Academy entrance exam too, right?"

On the way to the center of Shrek City, the middle-aged driver glanced at Gu Yue and the others sitting in the back and started chatting with Su Mo enthusiastically.

"Uncle, have you lived in Shrek City for a long time?"

"Of course!"

The middle-aged man said with a proud look, "My ancestors settled in Shrek City during the time of Lingbing Douluo."

"I'm not bragging, but my ancestors fought alongside Shrek Academy to resist a beast tide back in the day."

Upon hearing this, Su Mo readily agreed, "Then, Uncle, wouldn't you be a true Shrek person?"

Su Mo's phrase "a true Shrek" pleased the middle-aged man greatly.

The middle-aged man, as if he had opened a floodgate, began to talk at length to Su Mo about the precautions for applying to Shrek Academy.

"Young man, since you've already applied to Shrek Academy, I won't go into the basic requirements like being at level 25 before the age of 15."

"Let me tell you, Shrek Academy's admissions assessment consists of ten parts, each worth ten points, for a total of one hundred points."

"The admission score for Shrek Academy's outer academy is 60 points, while the admission score for its inner academy is 85 points or above."

"Some items in this performance evaluation lack specific quantitative standards, so whether they are good or bad depends entirely on the mood of the evaluator."

"So during the assessment, you must not argue with the judges; you must make a good impression on them."

"Of course, don't be discouraged if you don't get into Shrek Academy."

"You can also use the transcript issued by Shrek Academy to go to other colleges."

"Our Shrek Academy is recognized as the number one academy in the world. Even the students who are eliminated are among the best in other academies."

"Every year, many people from other colleges come to Shrek City to recruit students who failed the college entrance exams."

"For example, the Sun and Moon Royal Academy in Mingdu only requires a score of 60 to be admitted without examination, and the scores for other academies are even lower."

The middle-aged man spoke with an air of pride, his words brimming with self-satisfaction, as if he were a member of Shrek Academy.

"We have arrived at our destination. Please check your belongings."

As the cold notification tone sounded, the middle-aged man reluctantly shut his mouth.

"Alright, young man, I'll stop here."

Good luck on tomorrow's exam!

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he waved to the four people, and the car door closed gently.

As soon as they got out of the car, Su Mo and the others were stunned by the prosperity and liveliness of Shrek's city center.

As far as the eye can see, there are people everywhere, and you can hardly see the end of them.

Neon lights flashed and intertwined among the high-rise buildings, making the night sky colorful.

The screens in various shops were playing GG, making it dazzling to look at.

"Wow, so many people! It's much more bustling than Donghai City!"

Xu Xiaoyan subconsciously moved closer to Gu Yue, looking around like a curious kitten.

Wu Siduo remained calm and composed, arms crossed, admiring the scenery: "After all, this is Shrek City!"

Su Mo stared at the endless stream of people ahead, raising an eyebrow slightly: "I have a feeling that we're like tourists about to be ripped off."

"Don't worry, I'm here!"

Xu Xiaoyan puffed out her chest confidently and said in a serious tone, "I spent four hours last night looking at travel guides! This street has must-eat, must-visit, must-buy, and one more thing—"

"You're definitely going to get scammed," Wu Siduo added from the side.

Xu Xiaoyan immediately bristled, "Sister Siduo, don't underestimate me, okay?"

"I'm a well-known money-saving expert in Donghai City!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Wu Siduo gave a perfunctory reply.

"Sister Sido, if you keep this up, don't blame me for being ruthless tonight."

Xu Xiaoyan threatened Wu Siduo fiercely.

"Wrong, wrong!"

Upon seeing this, Wu Siduo immediately admitted defeat.
