Chapter 347:Shrek People Integrate into Tianxing Academy
🕑 Added 2025-03-26 17:55:20 +0000 UTCIn a mysterious grand hall within the God Realm.
A massive figure suddenly seemed to sense something. If others knew about this, it would surely cause a great stir.
This divine figure was none other than the Evil God King, one of the five great God Kings of the God Realm, also known as one of the strongest God Kings in existence.
Having experienced countless ages without any emotional fluctuations, the Evil God King's expression actually changed slightly. His deep, profound eyes swept across the heavens, searching for the cause of his unease.
Soon, the scene of a man and a woman battling the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger appeared before his eyes—especially the man, who was absorbing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul ring and even drawing energy from the Evil God Pearl.
With just a brief calculation, the Evil God King understood everything that had transpired. He even knew everything about Tang San's experiences on Douluo Star. Yet, all of this left him somewhat surprised.
"What's going on? By all logic, this person should be Douluo Star's Child of Destiny, so why has his fortune declined to such an extent?"
"However, this kid's personality is quite similar to mine. Especially with all that darkness and evil energy—he's very well-suited to be my inheritor. The only pity is that his strength is too weak. But since he has absorbed the energy of the Evil God Pearl and has been acknowledged by it, I'll give him a chance. Hopefully, this boy can grow quickly and reach my expectations sooner."
One day in the God Realm was equivalent to one year on Douluo Star. The Evil God King didn't have much time to pay attention to Tang San. With just a wave of his hand, a mysterious energy descended from the God Realm and ultimately fused into the center of Tang San's forehead.
At that moment, a voice rang in the Evil God King's ears. "Evil, remember the rules of the God Realm. Douluo Star is not your domain."
The Evil God King merely sneered. "Asura, I know my limits. There's no need to make a fuss over such a trivial matter."
With the Evil God King's words, the space immediately fell into silence. Neither the Asura God King nor the Evil God King spoke further.
Meanwhile, as Tang San continued hunting soul rings in the Star Dou Forest, a ship arrived once more near the ice layers of the Extreme North.
Upon disembarking, the group avoided the exploration teams of the Spirit Empire's cities and swiftly made their way toward the Almo Mountains.
This group consisted of Taitan, Yu Xiaogang, Dai Mubai, and others. According to the original plan, the two separated teams would rendezvous near the Almo Mountains before discussing their next course of action.
Inside Heavenly Academy, Flender, Tai Nuo, and the others had been living quite comfortably since joining.
Originally, the Shrek group had all been teachers at a soul master academy, so they were already familiar with education. Integrating into Heavely Academy felt as natural as a fish taking to water.
Flender, as the former dean of Shrek Academy, had outstanding leadership and teaching experience. Due to his long years managing Shrek Academy, he had constantly faced social engagements and funding issues, even earning the reputation of being one of the greatest shrewd businessmen on the Douluo Continent.
But now, within Heavenly Academy, he no longer had to worry about financial matters. He had transformed into the academy's chief instructor for flight training, and with his rare Flying Spirit Douluo abilities and experience, he thrived in his new role.
As for Zhao Wuji and the others, they had initially harbored some doubts about Heavenly Academy—especially regarding its immense strength and its stance toward the outside world.
However, after officially joining the academy, life became much simpler and more comfortable for Zhao Wuji and others, who had previously been all brawn and little brain.
Though entry into Heavenly Academy was difficult, with strict requirements for teachers and complicated academy regulations, the leadership was dominated by the core families.
Yet, within the academy, everyone was treated equally. Even all teachers received the same salary, which was considerably higher than that of ordinary academies. The core families bore no prejudice against outsiders, and there was no need to concern themselves with external affairs.
Furthermore, the academy occupied vast land, and senior teachers had their own standalone residences, making it feel just like home.
Overall, the teachers at Heavenly Academy enjoyed high pay, light work, and proximity to home. External troubles were minimal, and within just half a month, everyone had grown fond of life at the academy. Some even began questioning why they had spent so many years running around in hardship—especially in their struggle against the Spirit Empire—when being an academy teacher was far more relaxing.
As for Tai Nuo and the other members of the Strength Clan, they integrated into Heavenly Academy even more quickly.
Originally, the four single-attribute clans had already formed an alliance, frequently interacting with each other. The members of these clans were quite familiar with one another.
Now that Tai Nuo had joined Heavenly Academy, he naturally had many acquaintances and friends among both the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan. For instance, he often enjoyed drinking with Yang Zhentian and Niu Mang, whether there was an occasion or not.
However, every time the three of them drank, they couldn't help but reflect on the past. Tai Nuo, in particular, reminisced about everything that had happened over the years. He realized that in the end, life's greatest pursuit was nothing more than drinking and chatting freely with close friends. It made him feel as if he had taken countless unnecessary detours in life.
Yet, despite their drinking and laughter, their standings and strengths were vastly different now, and their past openness was no longer the same.
Especially since Yang Podi had already made it clear to all the clan leaders: accepting the Strength Clan was his absolute limit, and that was only out of respect for his grandfather and maternal grandfather. As for Heavenly Academy's secrets, not a single word could be revealed to outsiders.
This was particularly crucial when it came to the members of the Strength Clan, as they were all excellent blacksmiths—essentially divine craftsmen for soul tools. If they were allowed into the Soul Tool Research Academy, they would undoubtedly achieve significant breakthroughs.
However, Yang Podi had already made arrangements long ago. He had acquired a considerable number of blacksmiths from the Spirit Empire, and once they entered the Soul Tool Research Academy, they became completely engrossed in the knowledge of soul tools, to the point of utter obsession.
Furthermore, Yang Podi had put multiple safeguards in place. Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Ning Fengzhi were responsible for the security and discipline of the Soul Tool Research Academy. Even figures like Yang Wudi and Yang Zhentian had to show them due respect, making it impossible for untrustworthy individuals to gain entry.
Meanwhile, Yang Podi himself was caught between two girls, as if engaged in an invisible battlefield. At the same time, he remained focused on his divine trial.
Yet, Yang Podi was quite surprised—Hanhai City had clearly fallen under the control of the Spirit Empire, and the entire Douluo Continent was now unified. However, his divine trial showed no sign of completion. Instead, it seemed as if the Asura God wanted him to make a certain choice.
"Humans, the soul beast race, development issues… It seems that something major is about to happen in this world. Whether it's me or the Spirit Empire, we will both have to make a decision soon."
