Chapter 153 Come back! Xiao Wu! Chen Hong is everywhere outside! [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

"Oh, what advice do you have for me, Teacher Yu?"

At the gates of Shrek Academy, Chen Hong and Ning Quan stood together, watching Tang San follow Tang Hao towards the Star Dou Great Forest until their figures completely disappeared. Then, Chen Hong saw Yu Xiaogang leading the rest of the Shrek Seven Devils towards him from the other side.

Chen Hong and Tang Hao had only established a preliminary connection, and Tang Hao had never told Tang San about his background, perhaps out of some concern. Chen Hong naturally wouldn't want to cause trouble for himself, so he didn't reveal Tang Hao's identity to Tang San. At most, he only told Tang San that his father was a very powerful Soul Master who could protect him safely on his journey to the Star Dou Great Forest.

While the 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest might not harm Tang San, the thousand-year and ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts would certainly not be polite to him. Chen Hong naturally wouldn't let Tang San venture out alone. In the end, he could only contact Tang Hao, who was hiding in the shadows and occasionally going online, to protect Tang San. Tang Hao didn't show any resistance to Chen Hong and Tang San's request; he simply silently acquiesced to Tang San's decision.

After overhearing Xiao Wu's conversation with the Titan Giant Ape, Tang Hao realized that if he wanted Tang San to bring Xiao Wu back, he had to step in. Otherwise, without his approval, Xiao Wu would not dare to continue to leave the forest with Tang San after learning that he had a Title Douluo father.

Moreover, after the last incident, Tang Hao returned to his secret residence and pondered for a long time in front of the tender sprout of the Blue Silver Emperor. He finally understood many things and made the decision in his heart to no longer interfere in the affairs between Tang San and Xiao Wu.

Therefore, when Tang Hao was shocked to learn that Chen Hong had created a soul tool that could block the senses of a Title Douluo and was preparing to have Tang San bring Xiao Wu back, his heart was greatly shaken. After learning that the Ice Gold Breath-Containing Pouch could indeed block his senses, Tang Hao felt a little restless and could no longer sit still.

If only I had possessed such a soul tool back then.

At that moment, Tang Hao sighed inwardly and acquiesced to Chen Hong and Tang San's plan, taking Tang San on a trip to the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Teacher Chen," Yu Xiaogang led the other members of the Shrek Seven Devils to Chen Hong and greeted him. His voice was still hoarse and deep, and his overall demeanor was still gloomy, but his dark eyes now had a glimmer of light that he didn't have when he first came to Shrek Academy.

Yu Xiaogang had to admit that Shrek Academy had given him far too many shocks. Putting aside the Shrek Seven Devils, whose members were all geniuses in the Shrek Academy Martial Soul Department, Bajie, who had taken Xiao Wu's place, had to be kicked out. He only wanted monsters, not wild monsters.

(Monkey King: Hmph? Say that to my face if you dare! I'll headbutt you until you're dead!)

The first generation of monsters from Shrek Academy had already shocked Yu Xiaogang, but the shock he felt from the first generation of monsters was not as strong as the impact of Chen Hong alone.

Whether it's the ten-year-old soul beast, Pigsy, whose cultivation speed is incredibly fast, the withered and flourishing vine, which Chen Hong brought back from the Star Dou Great Forest and planted outside the teaching building of the Soul Guidance Academy at Shrek Academy, or the soul tool major that Chen Hong built alone at Shrek Academy, all of these are enough to overturn the worldview that Yu Xiaogang has formed over the years.

Although Chen Hong's Soul Tool Academy is currently more like a craftsman training class of the Technology Chamber of Commerce, it rarely recruits students from outside. Even when it does recruit students, it selects other students from Shrek Academy from within the Technology Chamber of Commerce, such as Flander, Zhao Wuji, Yu Xiaogang, and the Shrek Seven Devils. They can attend classes if they want, but whether they can understand them depends entirely on their own fate.

Chen Hong simply doesn't have the time to start from scratch and train new talent. His current approach is to prioritize training the outstanding craftsmen within the Technology Chamber of Commerce into Soul Masters, and then have these lower-level Soul Masters with some basic skills train the next generation. Chen Hong's model is similar to a PhD student mentoring high school students with some basic skills, then having those students mentor elementary school students after they've reached the undergraduate level. It's not like having a PhD student like Chen Hong directly mentor elementary school students, which would be a waste of time and inefficient.

However, once Chen Hong has finished setting up the spirit machine hub, the process of educating soul masters will become much simpler.

"I'm preparing to give the Shrek Seven Devils the next phase of practical training. We might go to Soto City then. I hope these students can receive Teacher Chen's guidance."

Yu Xiaogang looked into Chen Hong's eyes and made this request.

In fact, Yu Xiaogang had complained more than once about why Xiao Wu, one of the Shrek Seven Devils, hadn't returned yet, making it impossible for him to carry out many of his team's training sessions. As for the pig that Chen Hong had forced on him, Yu Xiaogang admitted that the pig was very intelligent and could even play with his external martial soul, Luo Sanpao. However, since its inception, the Douluo Continent Youth Soul Master Competition had never heard of a single competition featuring a soul beast assisting in its events!

Moreover, even if Shrek Academy dares to defy the world, that pig's strength is only equivalent to a Soul Master of level 10 or 20. Once it appears on the field, the opponents won't show mercy like Tang San and Dai Mubai did, out of consideration for "Chen Hong's peculiar pet." They might just roast the pig in front of the audience. How awful.

Therefore, Yu Xiaogang really hopes that Xiaowu can return as soon as possible. He heard from Flander and the others that Chen Hong had guaranteed that Xiaowu would be able to come back after a while, and Yu Xiaogang hopes that this time can be as soon as possible.

The Shrek Academy leadership's view of Xiao Wu was actually quite simple: she was just a pitiful little girl.

After all, Chen Hong could even imbue the lowest-level pig-like soul beast with such powerful spirituality, and he could also trick a wild, overgrown plant-like soul beast into coming home. He even tricked a thousand-year-old soul beast into sacrificing itself for him (compared to believing that Chen Hong made a hundred-year-old soul beast break through on the spot, the Shrek group was more willing to believe that it was a thousand-year-old soul beast about to break through).

Given this precedent, the Shrek Academy leadership felt that it wasn't impossible for the Titan Giant Ape King in the Star Dou Great Forest to have a "King Kong Love affair." At least, it was much more reliable than believing that Xiao Wu was a transformed soul beast.

Chen Hong happened to want to study Tang San's external soul bone. So, after Xiao Wu had been missing for a month, Chen Hong decided it was time to bring Xiao Wu back.

Tang San: Come back, Xiao Wu! Chen Hong is everywhere outside!
