Chapter 101: Shrek Academy's Overconfidence
🕑 Added 2025-08-30 09:58:34 +0000 UTCBefore long, an extremely powerful Spirit Master came rushing toward them like a madman. The closer he got, the stronger the spirit power pressure he released became, making everyone grow alert.
"Iggy, you haven't even sent a single letter all this time! Where the hell have you been running wild? And now you finally think to write back?"
Before seeing the person, they heard his voice first. That weathered yet powerful voice, tinged with anger—who else could it be but the Dugu Bo he knew so well?
"Don't panic, it's my grandfather. He's family."
Hearing this, everyone finally dropped their guard. Yang Wudi also came before Ignaz, ready to get a good look at a Titled Douluo's presence.
However, the most important thing was that Ignaz had mentioned Dugu Bo was a master of poison, with toxin-making abilities no weaker than his own as the leader of the Breaking Clan. He wanted to experience firsthand just how formidable Dugu Bo's poisons really were.
Within a few breaths, Dugu Bo had already arrived before Ignaz. After examining his meridians, Dugu Bo showed a hint of disdain.
"Iggy, I thought you'd reach level 60 Spirit Emperor within these three years, but you're only at level 57 now. Yanyan has already reached—"
Dugu Bo suddenly remembered his granddaughter's instructions not to reveal her spirit power level to Ignaz, and he almost spilled the beans.
"Tell me, what have you been doing these past three years?"
Ignaz smiled without speaking, instead acting like a child who'd done something wrong, saying somewhat awkwardly:
"I've been using your name out there, establishing a clan. Senior Yang Wudi helped me tremendously even before I arrived at Heaven Dou City, so..."
"What? Don't you know I'm used to living freely and hate those clan people with all their rules and regulations?"
Although he'd already learned about the Breaking Clan from the letter, he never expected that the Breaking Clan's allegiance wasn't based on this brat's real strength, but rather recruited using his Titled Douluo reputation.
"Honorary elder of the clan—that's the most carefree and unrestricted elder position there is. If you don't want it, grandpa, when both you and I are gone someday, who else will be little sister's support?"
"What? You're actually calling me grandpa now?"
Dugu Bo wasn't used to Ignaz's sudden change in address, but he had to admit, being called grandpa felt pretty good. After all, the relationship between his granddaughter and this kid was pretty much at that level anyway, so changing how he addressed him early made sense.
"You little rascal, you've certainly gotten more scheming after three years. But I fully support your idea of establishing a clan, especially since the clan members' martial souls are among the continent's top-tier tool martial souls."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo looked toward Yang Wudi, who had remained silent for a long time, and said with great curiosity:
"I've long heard that the Breaking Clan excels in poison arts, especially you, Breaking Clan leader Yang Wudi—you can neutralize countless poisons."
"Haha, Your Excellency flatters me. You're a Titled Douluo, and Iggy told me that your poisons mean instant death for anyone below Titled Douluo level, and even against other Titled Douluos, it's a fifty-fifty chance. If Your Excellency would be so kind as to share your wisdom, I, Yang Wudi, would be eternally grateful."
Instantly, Dugu Bo opened up like a chatterbox, excitedly discussing their respective understanding of poisons with Yang Wudi inside the carriage throughout the journey.
After they passed through Jialing Pass and officially entered Heaven Dou Plains territory, seeing that they were about to part ways, Dugu Bo looked at the calm-as-water Ignaz and deliberately reminded him:
"Iggy, after you return to Heaven Dou, you'd better behave yourself. Otherwise, Yanyan and the others definitely won't let you off easy."
"What's wrong with Yanyan and them? Do they have some ulterior motive regarding me?"
Ignaz clearly understood both girls' personalities, but so what? He'd cross that bridge when he came to it.
...
At this time, outside Heaven Dou City, at Heaven Dou Imperial Academy:
"Senior, is Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's teaching level really just this? They can't even handle one punch from Dai Mubai."
After touring Heaven Dou Academy, Flender thought it was quite good. Whether for Tang San or Ma Hongjun, staying at Heaven Dou Imperial Academy would bring tremendous strength improvements, especially with the systematic mimetic cultivation environments inside.
The only downside was the trash—or rather, there were too many students who just coasted through their days.
"Dean, what you saw before were all Heaven Dou Academy's worst Heaven Tiny level students. Previously, whether it was Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's second team or first team, they were all Heaven Supreme level students. Besides that, there are also..."
Qin Ming happily introduced the conditions and ranking systems of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy to everyone from Shrek.
But the biggest difference from their previous reception at Skywater Academy was that they weren't simultaneously received by three education committee members.
When Shrek Academy arrived at the academic building, they only received enthusiastic reception from two Spirit Douluo: Zhilin and Bao Baoshan.
Although only two Spirit Douluos received them, Tang San still performed admirably under Spirit Douluo Zhilin's guidance, advancing one level in cultivation. The Eight Spider Lances spirit bone on his back was also fully revealed, shocking everyone present, especially Zhilin and Bao Baoshan.
"Another external spirit bone?"
"Good, good, good! No wonder they so easily defeated Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's second team."
...
The Shrek Academy teachers, led by Yu Xiaogang, felt inexplicably happy when they heard Tang San being praised, since Tang San was a genius they'd cultivated at Shrek.
However, just as Yu Xiaogang hadn't yet proposed having a sparring match with Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's first team, Qin Ming spoke up first:
"Both education committee members, there's only a little over a year left until the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Elite Tournament, and the first team still only has four members. We teachers can't let them continue fooling around like this."
Qin Ming paused for a moment, then continued:
"Both education committee members, my suggestion is to first have Shrek Academy compete against Heaven Dou Imperial Academy first team's four members. If they win, their daily training methods can be widely promoted. If they lose, we need to find and solve the problems quickly."
Zhilin and Bao Baoshan looked at each other. Over the years, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Shi Mo, and Shi Mo had all shown significant spirit power improvements, especially Dugu Yan. She could be said to have become Heaven Dou Empire's top genius.
Who else could break through level 50 in spirit power at ages 15 and 16?
"Alright! Teacher Qin Ming, we agree to this match."
With Zhilin and Bao Baoshan's agreement, the entire academy became lively again. Many students headed to the back mountain to watch the match between Shrek Academy and Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's first team.
All Heaven Dou Imperial Academy students, whether Heaven Supreme level or Heaven Tiny level, believed that Shrek's previous victory over Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's second team was pure luck.
Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's first team, even with fewer members, would definitely beat the Shrek team—and in a completely crushing fashion.
