Chapter 103: A Disciple Taught by Wu Zhangkong Naturally Belongs to Shrek Academy!
"Forget it."
Seeing Na'er's vacant, lost expression, Gu Yue found it utterly boring.
Even if she was technically her split-off self, how could she be so weak? What a useless fragment.
"Though I don't know what's between you and him, don't worry. As long as he doesn't say the words himself, I won't let you disappear."
Under the hazy moonlight, Gu Yue shoved her hands into her pockets and turned away.
"Wait!"
Na'er finally stopped her, voicing the question that had long lingered in her heart.
"Why do you listen to him? You're the Silver Dragon King!"
This was something Na'er could never understand.
According to Yun Ming, he was part of the Huo family's experiment to inherit the god-level martial soul of the million-year soul beast—
the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger—
creating a hybrid between beast and human.
But Na'er knew better. That wasn't what he was.
He clearly wasn't human.
And if he was a soul beast, then shouldn't he listen to the Silver Dragon King, the ruler of all soul beasts?
Gu Yue froze, silently clenching her fists.
Na'er's words pierced deep—it was like twisting a blade in an old wound.
Why did she listen to him?
That was the question.
But—
"It's none of your business. Just make good use of your remaining days."
Although Gu Yue wanted to end her right there to avoid future trouble, a promise was a promise. She wouldn't break her word.
Na'er could only watch helplessly as Gu Yue faded into the night.
"Jiang… Jiang Chen, huh?"
...
"This must be the strongest generation yet."
Shen Yi looked toward the ongoing matches, sighing with emotion.
Back in the day, Wu Zhangkong—once hailed as an extraordinary genius and Sea God Pavilion Master candidate—hadn't even reached this level.
She never expected the Spirit Transmission Tower's trainees to grow this powerful. Once they became Titled Douluo, they'd be a tremendous force.
"No, this won't do. I must find a way to bring them into Shrek Academy. We can't just stand by like this."
Her heart burning with loyalty to Shrek, Shen Yi's eyes turned toward East Sea Academy's Zero Class section.
Her senior brother truly had cultivated incredible students.
It would be such a waste if they didn't join Shrek Academy.
But the Spirit Transmission Tower stood as an obstacle she couldn't overlook.
"The Spirit Transmission Tower..."
To be fair, the recent surge of high-quality soul masters was largely thanks to them.
With the advancement of spirit soul technology, the feedback provided by contracted spirits only strengthened their human hosts further.
Normally, reaching three or four soul rings at this age meant being an exceptional prodigy.
But now? Students were hitting four, even five rings.
It was absurd—inhuman even.
Shen Yi pondered a moment before deciding to report the situation to the academy. Shrek Academy was likely going to lose this time.
If they had already lost the three-on-three, how could they possibly win the seven-on-seven?
Even though Shrek's overall strength in seven-on-seven battles was usually superior, the problem was bloodline suppression.
That Dark Demon Evil God Tiger descendant could directly suppress both Wu Duosi and Dai Lingyu.
On top of that, the team included direct disciples of Spirit Transmission Tower Titled Douluos.
All the Tower's top prodigies were gathered here. Losing while others won would be beyond awkward—and she'd surely face questioning afterward.
She shivered at the thought.
Quickly, Shen Yi pulled out her communicator and called the Outer Court Dean of Shrek Academy—
Heavenmoon Douluo—Cai Yue'er.
Her martial soul was Silver Moon, and she was a level 97 Super Douluo.
Known for her independent and unpredictable personality, Cai Yue'er had once stirred storms across the continent.
After becoming a Titled Douluo, her title "Silver Moon" had even been deemed disrespectful by the federation's Mingde Hall, due to its similarity to the revered Silver Moon Douluo Kong Deming.
After some "friendly negotiation," she changed it to Heavenmoon and was later brought back to Shrek, disappearing from the public eye.
Now, she served as the Dean of Shrek Academy's Outer Court.
Unmarried all her life—rumor said she secretly loved Yun Ming.
Hearing Shen Yi's report, Cai Yue'er didn't seem surprised.
"The Federation's Southern Tournament—our Shrek team lost there too."
"What!"
Shen Yi was stunned. Those three from the Spirit Transmission Tower were already monstrous enough—there were people who could even beat them?
She knew the top ten names on the Youth Prodigy Rankings were practically all Shrek students.
Even if this time it was Outer Court disciples competing, they were still students directly taught by Sea God Pavilion elders like Na'er and Dai Lingyu.
So how… could they lose?
Cai Yue'er's expression darkened.
"It was a pair of sisters with a martial soul fusion technique. We underestimated them and lost unexpectedly. Who would've thought the Spirit Transmission Tower would be so devious, hiding such a trump card?"
Fury flashed across her face.
"Since Wu Zhangkong taught them, then they naturally belong to Shrek Academy."
"I've decided—we'll admit them directly into the Shrek Outer Court."
Such talents would make the Federation nervous if left unattended.
So Shrek Academy moved quickly.
Though the Outer Court remained within the Federation due to political reasons, many loyal Shrek students had already been transferred to continue training in the Inner Court located in the Star Luo Federation.
Hearing that, Shen Yi hesitated and said awkwardly, "Um, I already brought it up to them… but they don't seem interested in coming to Shrek to study."
"Ridiculous!" Cai Yue'er laughed coldly. "They're just ignorant children who don't understand Shrek's greatness. I'll go in person—once I speak to them, they'll return with me without question."
"Besides, since Wu Zhangkong came from Shrek Academy, his disciples naturally belong to Shrek Academy. That's as it should be."
"What? Should we tolerate them receiving Shrek's education only to betray Shrek Academy afterward?"
"Impossible!"
Shen Yi felt something was off—her words didn't sound right.
Though Shen Yi valued Shrek's honor deeply, the Dean's tone seemed too... forceful, as if she planned to use hard pressure instead of persuasion.
That couldn't be right.
Shrek Academy stood for justice; they couldn't just coerce people like that.
But Shen Yi knew her place—she was just a teacher, not someone who could influence policy.
So she decided to call another person—her master, Turbid World Douluo.
After hearing everything, the Turbid World Douluo simply replied, "It's fine. She's grown into her role as Vice Dean now. She knows what she's doing."
Shen Yi: "Really… does she?"
Something told her… this wasn't going to end well.
