Chapter 295: Shrek's Hope
The scene froze at the moment when Huo Yuhao, Poison Undying, and Xue Di launched their attack on Mu En.
Although it didn't continue playing, Zhang Lexuan already knew the result.
Facing an encirclement by someone comparable to a level 98, plus two Limit Douluo powerhouses, even Mu En's main body would be at risk of falling, let alone just a mere clone.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Lexuan left. Mu En looked at her back and sighed in his heart. He shouldn't have given Zhang Lexuan so much pressure, but now Zhang Lexuan was the only one who had a chance to fight Huo Yuhao.
His own life had at most two years left. Once he fell, no one in Shrek would be able to stop Huo Yuhao.
That young man was no longer a genius, but a true powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of the continent.
The reason the other party hasn't attacked Shrek yet is because they are afraid of this old bone of his. Mu En has the heart to take Huo Yuhao down with him.
But he knows he can't do it. That kid won't fight him to the death. The other party possesses profound spatial power, and it's easy to escape.
Now, the only thing he can do is buy time for Zhang Lexuan. Zhang Lexuan possesses a second martial soul. By attaching soul rings to the second martial soul, she can quickly improve her cultivation. Perhaps she won't be able to reach Limit Douluo within two years, but level 98 shouldn't be difficult.
On the other side, Shrek Academy Dean Yan Shaozhe slammed the table in anger upon hearing the report from his subordinates, "How dare this brat be so presumptuous! Go, have people continue to monitor Heavenly Court. I want to see how he's going to carry out his 'kill without pardon'."
In the Star Luo Empire, scouts rushed to deliver the latest news of Heavenly Court to the marshal of the Northwest Army Group. In the marshal's tent, after reading the information, Dai Hao slumped into his armchair, his face pale, completely frightened.
…
The next day, at the gate of Heavenly Court, Jing Hongchen brought his grandson and granddaughter to this place. After explaining to the guard that they wanted to join Heavenly Court, they were taken to the Induction Hall.
Over a hundred people had already gathered here. Besides the ten or so staff members, the rest were soul masters who had come to join Heavenly Court after hearing the news.
Among them, there were more than sixty soul masters of the Soul Master, Great Soul Master, and Soul Elder levels, thirteen Soul Kings, five Soul Emperors, three Soul Sages, and even a Soul Douluo.
These people were now neatly arranged in three queues, with staff members conducting preliminary registration. This level was relatively simple, just registering martial souls, soul power levels, home addresses, and some basic information.
As long as they weren't evil soul masters or the like, passing this level wasn't a problem.
"Name?"
"Qian Gu Xinyue."
"Martial soul, soul power level?"
"Coiling Dragon Staff, level 86."
Jing Hongchen took another look at the woman who signed up. Coiling Dragon Staff, this martial soul also has a great background.
After Qian Gu Xinyue, one of the three Soul Sages in the field stepped forward and reported the information as usual, just like before.
But when he reported the academy he attended, the staff member stopped the movements in his hand.
"Shrek Inner Court graduate?"
The staff member asked again to confirm.
"That's right."
The Soul Sage replied, with a proud look on his face. Shrek was a gold-lettered signboard, and of course he had the capital to be proud.
Hearing that he was a top student from Shrek, the surrounding people cast envious glances, which made the Soul Sage very satisfied.
The staff member pretended to look at the information, then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, you don't meet our requirements, please go back."
"What?"
The Soul Sage man's smug smile froze on his face. He thought he had misheard, "What did you say? I don't meet your requirements?"
"Yes, please give way and don't delay the people behind you."
"Are you kidding me? I'm a Shrek Inner Court graduate. Coming to you is looking up to you. I want to see your hall master, no, I want to see Huo Yuhao."
Receiving a definite answer from the staff member, the Soul Sage man became very irritable, slamming the table and yelling.
The staff member remained calm when he saw the man acting like a shrew. Similar things had happened in the past few days, and the hall master had already made arrangements.
The staff member put his hand under the table and pressed a button. A beeping alarm sounded in the hall.
"What did you do?"
For some reason, the Soul Sage man felt uneasy after hearing the alarm.
Tap tap tap, dense footsteps came, and a group of more than ten people entered the hall. These people were wearing uniform Heavenly Court uniforms. The first to enter were ten Soul Emperors in neat rows, and the three leading figures behind them were actually Soul Sages.
And the commander who appeared last was of course Da Baosi, a Soul Douluo with a soul power as high as level 86.
Luo Xiang, Deputy Hall Master of the Induction Hall, martial soul Black Feather Roc, level 86 agility-attack Soul Douluo.
"What's going on?"
Luo Xiang glanced at the scene and asked the staff member.
"Deputy Hall Master, this person wants to cause trouble."
Luo Xiang narrowed his eyes upon hearing this and looked at the Soul Sage man, "Oh, is that so?"
Seeing this kind of battle, the Soul Sage man was also a little lacking in confidence, but he still mustered his courage and said: "I'm not making trouble, I'm a graduate of Shrek Inner Court, but this guy actually said that I don't meet the requirements to join Heavenly Court."
"He said I don't meet the requirements, okay, but at least explain which aspect I don't meet, right? You can't just have Heavenly Court people doing things based on their mood, right?"
The surrounding people secretly laughed at the Soul Sage man's performance. He was just acting like he was the boss, but he withered so quickly.
Luo Xiang understood the ins and outs. Although he understood the Soul Sage man, he didn't blame the staff member. This was an order from above.
All Shrek graduates will not be accepted, especially Inner Court disciples. Outer Court graduates are also not allowed to join. Dropouts or expelled students can be considered at discretion.
Even without the events of a few days ago, Huo Yuhao didn't plan to accept Shrek Inner Court disciples. Those who can enter the Inner Court have been brainwashed to a similar extent. Those guys have unparalleled loyalty to Shrek. Accepting them is also a bunch of rebellious guys, things that eat inside and out, what's the use of them?
The most direct example is the Douluo Continent 3 era in the original work. Shrek graduates enter the federal government departments, often holding important positions, but what is infuriating is that they take the federal salary, but often do not listen to orders, but instead follow Shrek Academy's lead.
This is also the reason why the federal government did nothing after Shrek was destroyed later.
In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, Huo Yuhao directly ordered a ban on Shrek students from joining. However, at that time, Heavenly Court and Shrek had not yet broken face, and this order was not put on the surface.
"He's right, you don't meet my Heavenly Court's admission standards, leave."
Although Luo Xiang didn't understand the intention of the higher-ups, he could only execute the order.
"Are you guys sick? I'm a Shrek Inner Court graduate, Inner Court, do you understand? I'm a Soul Sage."
The pride of being a member of Shrek prompted the Soul Sage man to impulsively burst out, and he roared angrily at Luo Xiang.
