"Thank you, Director Du. We'll be going now. Brother Bai, Little Feng, and I are waiting for your good news."
Ning Tian lifted her willow-like eyebrows and flashed a mischievous smile, then bowed and turned to leave with Wu Feng. Huo Yuhao, seeing this, hurriedly followed and asked cautiously:
"Um... You seem pretty relaxed. Aren't you worried that Ling Bai might fail the assessment?" "Fail?"
Wu Feng seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world and said in surprise:
"Shrek Academy's Inner Academy freshmen are just Soul Masters. How could an assessment for Soul Masters stop that guy? Are you underestimating the Six-Winged Angel, or have you forgotten how he slew the Blazing Bone Dragon Gryphon with just three soul rings?"
"Right..."
Huo Yuhao suddenly recalled that while Shrek Academy was indeed strict, Ling Bai was a monster in his own right!n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Ning Tian placed her hands behind her back and chuckled mischievously, "Mother always said that the Inner Academy students are all full of pride. It's good for Brother Bai to give them a taste of his strength."
"Ning Tian, you're so naughty!" Wu Feng giggled, "But I like it!"
On the other side, Du Weilun led the three of them around several buildings of various colors. Bei Bei and Tang Ya introduced Ling Bai to the Outer Academy Teaching Buildings, which were represented by white, yellow, purple, and black, each color denoting a different grade. After passing the white building for freshmen, the four of them finally arrived at the Testing Area, which resembled a stadium surrounded by a low wall.
The sky was already dark, and the dim sunset was gradually being replaced by stars and the moon. The Testing Area was lit by white Soul Conductor Lamps, indicating that someone was still inside.
The moment they entered, a woman noticed them.
"Director Du?"
The woman was in her early twenties, with long, smooth black hair that fell to her waist. Her fair face was flawless, her eyes like water, giving off a dreamy, misty feeling.
"It's Le Xuan."
Seeing her, Du Weilun smiled kindly.
"Zhang Le Xuan..."
Ling Bai, having heard Du Weilun's address, immediately recognized the woman's identity. Zhang Le Xuan, the adopted child of Dragon God Douluo Muen, was exceptionally talented, deeply cultivated, and of excellent character. She was widely recognized as a Senior Sister in Shrek Academy's Inner Academy.
She was also Bei Bei's...
Child Bride.
Ling Bai noticed out of the corner of his eye that Bei Bei's body stiffened slightly when he saw Zhang Le Xuan, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on Tang Ya's hand, causing her to yelp in pain.
In addition to Zhang Le Xuan, there were five others in the Testing Area-three men and two women-each with a different posture but all exuding confidence and excitement.
"Not bad, you've all passed the Inner Academy assessment." Du Weilun nodded slightly at the five.
As the Dean of the Outer Academy, Du Weilun was very familiar with the Outer Academy's geniuses. The five present were all core students he had previously identified as Inner Academy candidates.
"Hehe, just lucky. Thanks for the years of teaching and care from the Outer Academy and the Dean."
One of the tall, handsome men among the five scratched his head and smiled.
"Alright, no need to flatter me here. Work hard in the Inner Academy. If I hear you've been eliminated, I'll deal with you!" Du Weilun scolded with a smile.
"Ah, this..."
The man was taken aback. Just like the Outer Academy, Shrek Academy's Inner Academy had a very strict elimination system, and he wasn't confident he could make it all the way to
graduation!
"Brother Chu, you have a long road ahead."
The two other male students patted his shoulder and sighed.
Brother Chu suddenly felt that being admitted to the Inner Academy wasn't as exciting as he thought; the pressure seemed even greater.
After putting pressure on the Chu student, Du Weilun turned his gaze to Zhang Le Xuan, "Le Xuan, are you preparing to take them to the island?"
Shrek Academy's Inner and Outer Academies were taught separately. On the way, Ling Bai had seen the Outer Academy, which was not much different from a university campus in his previous life. The Inner Academy, however, was located on Sea God Island in the center of the academy's Sea God Lake, a holy place that most soul masters could only dream of reaching. "Yes, Director Du." Zhang Le Xuan's tone was calm and her gaze steady.
"The Inner Academy assessment is over. I'm responsible for taking this year's five freshmen to the island to help them integrate quickly."
"Over?"
Du Weilun was taken aback but quickly recovered.
Right, they had registered in the evening, and now the moon was high in the sky. It wouldn't make sense to have the assessment at such a late hour.
"Le Xuan, I have a student who wants to take the Inner Academy assessment as an external candidate. He's quite talented, and I thought I'd give him a chance."
Du Weilun chose his words carefully. Though he was the Dean of the Outer Academy and often stern, he knew his status in the Shrek Academy hierarchy didn't match Zhang Le Xuan's. They
were not on the same level.
"External?"
Zhang Le Xuan glanced at the three people behind Du Weilun, immediately locking onto Ling Bai. She was familiar with Bei Bei and, due to Bei Bei, had some knowledge of Tang Ya.
Not just Zhang Le Xuan, but the five Inner Academy freshmen also did the same. Bei Bei and Tang Ya were well-known in the Outer Academy, and by process of elimination, everyone knew who the external student was.
"So young!"
"So handsome!"
The five couldn't help but exclaim.
The boys were more focused on Ling Bai's age. He looked younger than Bei Bei and Tang Ya
but was already a four-ringed Soul Master.
This level of talent was somewhat terrifying.
The girls were immediately drawn to Ling Bai's looks. Even in Shrek Academy, Ling Bai's appearance was universally appealing, and one of the female students began to eye him with
interest.
"Since Director Du recommends him so highly, I have no problem. Let's give this student an additional test."
Zhang Le Xuan was a decisive person. She had studied in the Outer Academy before and knew that Du Weilun wouldn't make such a recommendation without reason. Ling Bai must have
some outstanding qualities.
"Ling Bai, thank Senior Sister."
Du Weilun quickly reminded Ling Bai.
"Thank you, Senior Sister."
"No need to thank me. I haven't done anything. Whether you pass the additional test or not
depends on you."
Zhang Le Xuan smiled lightly and extended her pale hand, pointing to the five freshmen
behind her.
"It's late, so we won't waste time. Ling Bai, I'll give you a small privilege. These are this year's freshmen from the Outer Academy who have been promoted to the Inner Academy. Choose one and defeat them, and this year will have six Inner Academy freshmen."
"Is the Inner Academy assessment so... simple?" Ling Bai looked at the smiling woman, replacing the word 'casual' with 'simple' at the last moment.
Zhang Le Xuan smiled faintly and shook her head, "This is simplified.
Why complicate things when they can be simple?
No matter what education a soul master receives, it ultimately serves combat. A young Soul
Master indicates exceptional cultivation talent, and an external student defeating a Shrek Academy student indicates strong combat talent. Shrek Academy doesn't accept ordinary people, only monsters. If you can do these two things, you, my friend, are a monster!"
"Fair enough."
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Ling Bai admitted that Zhang Le Xuan's words were true. The value of combat far outweighed
any test, as it revealed not only what a person had learned in the past but also their potential
for future development.
However...
"Are you sure you want me to choose?"
Ling Bai asked.
"Not afraid I'll pick a support-type?"
"Go ahead. See the difference between Shrek Academy's support-type and external support- type. Friendly reminder: the only support-type among the five is also a soul conductor." Zhang Le Xuan's smile never wavered, and her absolute confidence was impressive. Ling Bai thought that Tang Ya must have some special skills to have won Bei Bei from such a woman.
Turning his head, he saw Tang Ya's clear, innocent eyes.
Case closed. Dumb luck.
With that, Ling Bai stopped talking and began to size up the five Inner Academy freshmen.
Five people, three men and two women, each with unique characteristics. Lower-rank soul masters often inadvertently reveal details about their soul beasts and abilities, and Ling Bai was particularly skilled at capturing and analyzing these details. Brother Chu, who had been joking with Du Weilun, had long, well-proportioned limbs. His hands, hanging by his sides, occasionally formed a cat-like shape, indicating a feline-type soul beast, likely an agile attacker.
The other male was large and muscular, with a robust build and vigorous qi and blood, suggesting a strong attacker or defender, a power-type soul master.
The third male had an ordinary appearance and a faint life force, indicating a plant-type soul
master.
The female was a support-type and also a soul conductor. When Ling Bai mentioned the
possibility of choosing a support-type, her expression clearly changed, showing a desire for
combat. Finally, the girl with short green hair, who was the most beautiful among the Inner Academy freshmen, almost on par with Ning Tian. Her figure was mature, with slightly upturned, reddish eyes that sparkled and captivated the heart.
From her appearance, it was hard to tell what type of soul beast she had, but the air around
her had a faint, sweet, and slightly bloody scent. Ling Bai deduced that she might be skilled in
using poison!
"I'll choose Brother Chu."
From the micro-expressions and details, the girl with short green hair was likely the strongest among the five, followed by Brother Chu.
Ling Bai didn't want to bully a girl, so he chose Brother Chu as a second option.
"Go, Chu Qingtian. The rest of you, step back. You two, fight without holding back. Director
Du and I will ensure your safety." Zhang Le Xuan instructed.
"Yes, Senior Sister!"
Chu Qingtian strode forward and stood firmly opposite Ling Bai. Du Weilun and the others
moved to the side, giving them ample space.
"Chu Qingtian, a forty-seventh-level agile attacker Soul Master, soul beast: Electric Mad Leopard. Please guide me." Chu Qingtian bowed and said clearly.
Two yellow and two purple soul rings shone brightly, and his body began to sprout brownish-
yellow fur, with three camouflage-like black marks appearing on each side of his face. Electric Mad Leopard form!
"Ling Bai, a forty-first-level strong attacker Soul Master, soul beast: Six-Winged Angel."
"Please guide me..."
Four soul rings-yellow, purple, purple, and black-rose fiercely!
