Chapter 137 A Face Delivered to Your Doorstep, Collapsing the Mural!
Two days later.
In front of Shrek Academy.
"Boss, you must protect yourself when you go to Shrek Academy, and you must say no to bad temptations." Na'er and Jiang Xiu walked together in Lingbing Square. Na'er's cherry lips parted slightly as she repeatedly reminded Jiang Xiu.
"Also, let me know if anything happens. Although I can't be of much help right now, I can help with small things..."
With a smile in his eyes, Jiang Xiu listened to Na'er's instructions as he crossed the Lingbing Square and headed towards the main gate of Shrek Academy.
The Lingbing Plaza is named after Huo Yuhao, the Lingbing Douluo from ten thousand years ago. The surrounding buildings are in a ring shape, with a statue of a famous person carved on them. In the center of the Lingbing Plaza, a tall sculpture stands like a star surrounding the moon, which is the statue of Huo Yuhao.
"Jiang, over here!"
Just as Jiang Xiu and Na'er approached, a clear female voice rang out, and Shen Yi, with a smile on his face, strolled towards the two of them from a distance.
"Teacher Shen, where is my eldest son reporting for duty?" Na'er greeted him politely before asking, as if she were Jiang Xiu's parent.
Jiang Xiu simply chuckled at this. Today, Na'er had insisted on coming with him when she learned that he was coming to Shrek Academy. Knowing Na'er's stubbornness, Jiang Xiu naturally let her have her way.
"Ahem, Na'er, it's like this. You should go back first. I'll take Jiang Xiu to the assessment, and then he can enter Shrek Academy." Shen Yi coughed twice and said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Huh? Didn't you invite our boss here? Why do we still need to take an assessment?" Na'er raised an eyebrow, her pretty face showing some displeasure.
A hint of embarrassment flashed in Shen Yi's eyes. This was a suggestion from Elder Cai and Elder Long in the Sea God Pavilion, who said that the rules for Shrek Academy's admission could not be broken, and then the Sea God Pavilion made the decision by vote.
Although she also felt it was somewhat unreasonable, after all, they were the ones who invited Jiang Xiu to come and study here, as a teacher from the foreign language department, she obviously had no choice but to obey orders.
"Boss, why don't we go back? Shrek Academy is clearly not sincere." Na'er said, then grabbed Jiang Xiu's arm, preparing to leave.
Seeing this, Shen Yi quickly said, "Wait, Na'er, this assessment is actually for the purpose of better teaching Jiang according to her aptitude in the future. Besides, with Jiang's abilities, passing it will be quite easy."
"Don't worry, Na'er. Don't you trust your boss?" Jiang Xiu's eyes flashed, and he patted the back of Na'er's hand.
He naturally understood the purpose of Shrek Academy's assessment of him; it was nothing more than to suppress his arrogance.
After all, his single-handedly annihilating a team from Shrek Academy in the East China Sea dealt a significant blow to Shrek Academy's honor. Even though Shrek Academy managed to manage the situation in time, that battle still left an impression on many people, letting them know that Shrek Academy was not invincible.
However, ever since he agreed to enter Shrek Academy for exchange, he never intended to kneel down. Now that Shrek Academy is willing to stick their face out, he naturally has to slap them hard twice.
"Alright, be careful. I'll be waiting for you at home... at the Body Sect." Hearing Jiang Xiu's words, Na'er pursed her red lips and agreed.
"It's not like we're going to die, I'll go back tonight." Looking at Na'er's expression, Jiang Xiu was both amused and exasperated.
He had discussed it with Yali before he came, and he would not stay at Shrek Academy.
"Hehe, sorry, I got too into character." Na'er chuckled.
"Go back and read less of those fictional novels." Jiang Xiu's lips twitched slightly, then he waved behind Shen Yi and said, "Let's go."
"Okay." Na'er replied, watching Jiang Xiu and Shen Yi walk into a large hall in front of them.
Na'er gazed at Shrek Academy from afar, a hint of indifference flashing in her purple eyes.
She always felt that something was hidden within Shrek Academy, making her somewhat uneasy. And the only thing that could make her uneasy was something at the god level or above...
Meanwhile, in the airspace above Shrek Academy, a tall, handsome man and a graceful woman were hidden, watching the scene unfold before them.
"Yali, I remember this girl named Na'er also has a gun-type martial soul, right?" Yun Ming looked at Yali beside him and asked softly.
Yali nodded slightly and smiled gently, "That's right, she even showed her gun-wielding skills in the last competition."
"We really have a special connection with Shrek Academy."
Yun Ming sighed, feeling that he had an inexplicable connection with Na'er, but then shook his head slightly, "It's a pity."
After learning that Na'er was Leng Yaozhu's apprentice, he gave up the idea of taking her as a disciple. He couldn't bring himself to steal someone else's disciple, especially since that person was Leng Yaozhu.
"Alright, Brother Ming, we've come to see Jiang Xiu. His first assessment is about to begin," Ya Li said softly, pointing to the main hall below.
Yun Ming's eyes flashed suddenly, and he nodded slightly. "That's right. Let me see if this Jiang Xiu is really that talented."
The reason he agreed to Cai Yue'er and Long Yeyue's proposal this time was not only because of Long Yeyue's status, but also because he really wanted to see if Jiang Xiu was stronger than he was when he was young.
Inside the main hall.
As soon as Jiang Xiu entered, he noticed the mural above his head, and the enormous black dragon in the mural that blotted out the sky.
Although it is a mural, it is extremely lifelike. Every thick scale on its body is clearly visible, and a pair of dark golden, cold dragon eyes exude majesty, coldly watching everything in the hall.
"Emperor Lao, you've really fallen on hard times." Looking at the black dragon in the mural that resembled Emperor Tian, Jiang Xiu couldn't help but sigh.
Since the widespread use of spirits in the Spirit Pagoda, the spirit beast race has entered a period of rapid decline, and Di Tian, the strongest person in the world, has also quickly lost his position.
From being an invincible beast god at the time, it has become a must-play... project for human limit Douluo quasi-god level soul masters.
After reaching the Quasi-God level, Soul Masters would go to the Star Dou Great Forest to fight Di Tian. They had fought Di Tian, the head of the Sea God Pavilion and the head of the Spirit Transmission Tower. Even the dragon blood in this mural was obtained from Di Tian in one of the battles.
"However, Di Tian's wish to travel the universe was ultimately fulfilled in a different way." Jiang Xiu sighed as he recalled Di Tian's later fate.
After all, turning it into a warship means it can travel through the universe...
After Shen Yi led Jiang Xiu into the main hall, he stepped aside and secretly made a hand gesture.
"roar!"
Immediately, a loud dragon roar suddenly rang out, shaking the entire hall like thunder, and the aftershocks even traveled far away. Then, the murals on the dome seemed to come alive, with the black dragon in them spreading its huge wings, its large dragon eyes gleaming with cold light, and its blood-red mouth opening between its sharp horns.
In an instant, immense dragon pressure emanated from the mural, with faint black mist surging within. The suppression of bloodlines, coupled with the roar of the dragon, instantly thickened the surrounding atmosphere, making it feel as if it were filled with lead, causing suffocation and fear.
"Something's not right. Why is the pressure so much stronger than usual today?" Shen Yi, who was standing to the side, immediately noticed something was wrong. It seemed that a powerful energy had been injected into the mural. Both the pressure and the bloodline suppression were at least three times stronger, and even she, a Soul Emperor, was affected.
"No, I have to make Elder Li stop." Shen Yi thought to himself. Although this pressure and bloodline suppression did not have any real offensive power, they could damage the will of a Soul Master, and even Soul Masters with poor mental strength could become despondent.
Many of the Soul Masters who came to take the Shrek Academy entrance exam failed miserably in the very first hurdle.
But just as Shen Yi was about to have Elder Li in the shadows shut it off, he saw that Jiang Xiu, who was in the very center of the oppressive aura, did not bend at all. He remained upright and even looked up at the murals on the dome.
"What...what is this?" When Shen Yi saw Jiang Xiu's eyes, a tremor from the depths of his soul surged into his heart.
And it wasn't just him; the six people hiding in the shadows were also startled, with two of them even feeling a tremor from their martial spirits.
At this moment, Jiang Xiu's eyes had already transformed into a noble crimson gold, and illusory purple-gold dragon scales covered half of his face, making Jiang Xiu's originally handsome face suddenly become exceptionally bewitching and arrogant. His crimson gold dragon eyes were also mixed with a tyrannical and majestic disdain for everything.
"hold head high!"
Just as the crimson dragon's eyes fixed on the mural, an even more intense dragon roar resounded from within Jiang Xiu's body, as if challenged by the black dragon. A surge of powerful pressure instantly rose, and the violent dragon roar directly bombarded the mural on the dome.
"Snap! Snap!"
In just a moment, the originally solid mural emitted a crisp cracking sound, and the black dragon in the painting weakened its momentum. A hint of submission flashed in its somewhat spiritual eyes, but the cracks on the mural continued to spread, like a spider web, densely cracking.
"Stop! Don't look anymore!"
At this moment, an old man dressed in a green robe suddenly appeared beside Jiang Xiu. Looking at the murals on the dome above, he said urgently with a mixture of shock and heartache.
What kind of monster is this kid? Wasn't it said that his martial soul was his original martial soul? How come he has such pure dragon might on him!
Although this mural was created by a titled Douluo, it is ultimately just a mural with the bloodline of the Di Tian True Dragon. It exerts immense pressure on low-level Soul Masters, and in thousands of years, no Dragon Clan Martial Soul has ever been encountered with a purer bloodline than the Di Tian.
But now, the pressure emanating from Jiang Xiu is clearly greater than that from Di Tian, and it has even caused the drop of Di Tian's blood in the painting to tremble.
It was as if Jiang Xiu would explode if he looked at him again!
