Douluo Continent: Original Body Huo Yuhao

"You were born into a noble family, and you must have been pampered since childhood. Even if you saw the lives of poor people, you would only sigh."

"Mr. Mu, I remember you traveled to the mainland when you were young, right?"

Hearing Huo Yuhao mention his past, Mu En snapped out of his reverie. He wasn't surprised that Huo Yuhao knew about his past. As long as it wasn't something too private, a little inquiry would reveal it.

Mu En looked nostalgic: "Yes, back then, I traveled the continent with two friends, experiencing all kinds of customs and cultures. We lived together, killed evil spirit masters together, and secretly did good deeds without seeking fame."

As he spoke, Moon laughed. Clearly, he missed those wonderful days.

"I just don't know where they are now. Years ago, they were famous throughout the continent. With their talent, they shouldn't be so unknown now."

Huo Yuhao knew who Mu En was talking about; the famous one was Long Xiaoyao, known as the Dark Holy Dragon.

But that wasn't the main point Huo Yuhao wanted to make today, so he asked, "Have you ever been to impoverished areas?"

"Of course I've been there. Some evil spirit masters like to hide in those places. We disguise ourselves as ordinary people and sneak in to kill those evil spirits hiding in the darkness."

"Before leaving, we also helped some children of the right age awaken their martial spirits. Seeing the genuine smiles on those children's faces when they revealed their martial spirits made us very happy."

Mu En recalled the girl who had captured his heart. Watching the children gather around her, excitedly displaying their martial spirits, and seeing the bright smile on her face, Mu En was deeply moved. But alas, fate played a cruel trick on him!

Seeing that he had prepared himself sufficiently, Huo Yuhao changed the subject: "Then you must know a lot about the history of Shrek Academy, right?"

"Of course." Moon was still very proud when Shrek Academy was mentioned.

"You must know the predecessor of Shrek Academy, right?"

"Yes, Shrek Academy was originally called Blue Tyrant Academy, founded by Liu Erlong. Later, after the other two members of the Golden Iron Triangle and the original Shrek Seven Devils joined, it was renamed Shrek Academy."

The next words were spoken by Huo Yuhao: "Blue Tyrant Academy is an academy that only recruits geniuses from commoners. They refuse to cooperate with nobles, and the level of their students is not much worse than that of those pampered noble children."

"Am I right, Mr. Mu?"

"You're absolutely right," Moon said bitterly. So this was the child's true purpose.

Huo Yuhao continued, "So now that Shrek Academy doesn't have noble titles, it's almost impossible to get in."

"I can understand this, but you also know what problems Shrek Academy has these days."

"I know. Shrek Academy is corrupt and its problems are too deep to be solved. The Martial Soul Department is complacent and suppresses the Soul Guidance Department. If it weren't for you imparting knowledge and healing me, I'm afraid I would have died with my eyes closed."

Huo Yuhao shook his head: "More than that. Shrek Academy's biggest problem is that it's not a simple academy. Its reach is too long, its influence is too great, and you know the saying 'the bigger the tree, the more the wind blows,' right?"

"It can still exist peacefully at present because of the confrontation between the four countries, and the three kingdoms of Douluo need Shrek Academy as a leader."

"But what if there's a unified empire? Which monarch do you think would tolerate the existence of Shrek, a kingdom within a kingdom?"

Huo Yuhao's words struck a chord with Mu En. He had thought about this issue before, but had never dared to confront it. Now that Huo Yuhao had brought it up, Mu En knew he could no longer avoid it.

"I understand. Shrek Academy can only be an academy; that's how it survives."

Seeing that Mu En was no longer hesitant, Huo Yuhao continued, "Then, as an academy, its primary purpose is to educate people, not only in terms of their character, but more importantly, in terms of their moral character."

"Instead of constantly talking about glory, or even disregarding the lives of the trainees."

Moon had long known that Shrek's Glory had corrupted many generations, but he had never had a good opportunity to suppress this trend.

"Okay, now there's one more issue, the Shrek Supervisory Group."

Mu En knew that many people were actually dissatisfied with the Shrek Academy's oversight team, but they didn't say anything because of Shrek Academy's power. So he gave a detailed account of all the information about the Shrek Academy's oversight team, which made Huo Yuhao frown.

"You mean, the monitoring team can monitor officials from other countries?"

Mu En was somewhat embarrassed; he knew Huo Yuhao's background very well. If Huo Yuhao were truly so righteous, such a thing wouldn't have happened.

Huo Yuhao pondered for a few seconds and offered his solution: "Since the inspection team's intentions are good, let's keep it. However, I have a few suggestions:"

"First, never interfere in the internal affairs of other countries unless there is solid evidence that they are related to evil spirit masters;

"Second, when dealing with evil spirit masters, it is essential to involve local officers and soldiers, record the students' actions truthfully, and submit a copy of the record to the respective empire and Shrek Academy on time."

"And those trainees who violate the rules, I think you should know how to deal with them."

"Dealing with evil spirit masters is not something that can be accomplished by a single academy alone; we need to cooperate with various empires."

After saying that, Huo Yuhao left, reminding them before he left, "Remember to make sure those girls wrap themselves up tightly. Also, teach them some other skills to make a living."

Mu En took note of Huo Yuhao's words, some of which were points he had never considered before. But when compared with his own views, he found himself to be wrong.

Perhaps this difference stems from their different perspectives. Mu En had a feeling that Huo Yuhao, despite having held a high position, still maintained a concern for ordinary people.

Although Mu En couldn't understand what had happened to Huo Yuhao, a child who was only 12 years old, that gave him such a perspective.

However, when Mu En taught Huo Yuhao how to rule the world, he already knew Huo Yuhao's character. Therefore, he didn't think much of it.

"It's time to hold a meeting at the Sea God Pavilion. Now that we've identified the problem, we should address it," Mu En thought to himself.

Only then did Mu En notice that Zhang Lexuan had returned.

"How did things go?"

Zhang Lexuan replied, "I lost control and seriously injured Dai Yueheng. I've handed his position over to Xiao Tao."

Mu En nodded, agreeing with Ma Xiaotao's decision to replace Dai Yueheng.

"Oh, right," Moon said, suddenly remembering something, "do you think we should still assign Huo Yuhao and the others to the Shrek Seven Devils' reserve ranks?"

"Yuhao, Na'er, and Qiu'er are no less capable than the current generation of Shrek Seven Devils. I think they can be arranged as substitutes for the main team. As for Dong'er, her strength is slightly inferior, so let her compete for the reserve team."

......

On the way back with Huo Yuhao and the others.

Wang Dong'er, holding Huo Yuhao's hand and pouting, said somewhat jealously, "Yuhao, does our Teacher Zhang have feelings for you?"

Gu Qiu'er answered the question for Huo Yuhao: "She's not one of us, Yuhao won't accept her."
