Chapter 42 of the First Person
"Repairing the relationship with the Spirit Pagoda was Yun Ming's idea. Right?" He Yushu looked at Yun Ming, who nodded.
"So what if I decided to grant Chen Ran the qualification to comprehend the Dao! What right do you have to call me that! Our He family has served Shrek Academy for nine generations! My father was even a sworn brother of the previous Pavilion Master, Uncle Bei!"
Our He family has seven ancestors who contributed their cultivation to the Golden Ancient Tree! One of our ancestors was even the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion! I am not qualified to say that you are.
"In terms of cultivation, you are inferior to me; in terms of your family's contributions to Shrek Academy, you are inferior to the He family; in terms of seniority at Shrek Academy, you are also inferior to me. When I was at Shrek Academy, you were still begging for food somewhere!"
"The only thing I'm not as good at as you is causing trouble! I can't learn how to make a mess on the mainland and then have the academy clean up your mess!" He Yushu looked at Cai Yue'er with disdain, belittling her to the point of being worthless.
Cai Yue'er's face was pale; no one had ever dared to speak to her like that before. Her eyes reddened as she looked at Yun Ming, hoping he would give her justice. But Yun Ming shook his head.
He Yushu's identity is special; he's the only one in Shrek Academy who dares to stand up to the Shrek Empress Dowager. Yun Ming sometimes envies He Yushu; every time Long Yeyue mentions Yun Ming's teacher, Yun Ming is speechless!
“Then he has to follow the rules and go through the enrollment process, otherwise we won’t be able to shut up the other students!” Yali quickly stepped forward to ease the situation!
After the meeting ended, Cai Yue'er stared at He Yushu's retreating figure with eyes full of resentment! She couldn't deal with He Yushu, but she couldn't deal with Qian Gu Chenran either. As the dean of the outer academy, she was one of the chief officers supervising the freshmen's assessment.
She'll have plenty of ways to teach Qian Gu Chen Ran a lesson! She doesn't believe the Qian Gu family would dare to cause trouble for her at Shrek Academy just because of Qian Gu Chen Ran!
Shrek City
Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er looked at Mu Ye and his little red, who had rushed away after putting them and Zhen Hua down, with blank expressions!
Zhenhua's eye twitched. What did Mu Ye mean by leaving him in Shrek City instead of taking him back to Heaven Dou City?
He glanced at the time and then at the two little ones: "Chenran, let me take you to have a meal first! Then I'll go to Shrek Academy with you!"
Since they were already there, Zhenhua decided to take the two children out for a meal first, and then accompany them to Shrek Academy. He had a feeling that Shrek was going to cause trouble!
He finally got such a disciple, so of course he has to protect him well!
At Na'er's recommendation, the three went to her favorite restaurant! After dinner, led by the suddenly appearing Ya Li and He Yushu, the three went to participate in the Shrek Academy entrance examination!
Ya Li was surprised to see the master craftsman Zhenhua there! "Your Majesty Zhenhua, what brings you here!"
Zhenhua and He Yushu nodded to each other. He looked at Yali and said, "Your Majesty, I was originally going to accompany my disciple Chenran to participate in the Shrek Academy assessment, otherwise I would not feel at ease!"
"Now that His Majesty Xuan Yin is here, I can rest assured! I'll leave Chen Ran in your care, His Majesty Xuan Yin!" He Yushu nodded to Zhen Hua, who then greeted Chen Ran and hurried back to his Heaven Dou City Blacksmith Association.
He's been out for so long this time, his office must be overflowing with documents!
Ya Li smiled at Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na Er: "Come on, you two little geniuses! I'll take you to the entrance exam now!"
Led by Ya Li, Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na Er headed to the location of the assessment. They admired the beautiful scenery along the way, with all kinds of blooming plants and flowers.
With the Golden Tree as its life-giving core, even the Shrek Academy's outer courtyard, which is far from Seagod Island, remains lush with vegetation! It's like spring all year round!
Upon entering a circular hall, the two looked up at the majestic black dragon mural on the ceiling, which was over twenty meters high, at He Yushu's prompting.
A colossal black dragon soared through the sky, its golden eyes fixed intently on the two figures! Its sharp claws seemed poised to reach out from the mural and seize Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na Er, and a faint dragon roar seemed to echo through the air!
The dragon's might swept towards the two of them. Na'er blinked as she felt the dragon's might, which was no different from a massage. She leaned close to Qian Gu Chenran and said, "Boss, are we going to collapse and faint in this situation?"
Qian Gu Chen Ran yawned, and purple lightning appeared out of thin air, shattering the roaring black dragon shadow!
"Huh? Good lad, not only are you unaffected by the dragon's might, but you even attacked it backhand! And that girl didn't even flinch. You two are both perfect!" An old man in a dark green robe walked out curiously from the side!
He had guarded the first gate for decades, and most students were lucky to withstand the pressure without collapsing. Unlike Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er, who were not only unaffected but also prepared to launch a counterattack!
The mural was painted with a drop of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King's blood, which is why it can simulate some of his dragon might! Every candidate who has taken this test in previous years has suffered because of this.
Yali smiled at the two of them: "Chenran, Na'er, you two are indeed little monsters. Let's go to the next level now!"
At the same time, Qian Gu Dongfeng, seeing the message from his elder brother, rushed to Qian Gu Qingfeng's house with a strange expression!
Looking at his father, Qian Gu Die Ting, Han Tian Yi, and his elder brothers, Qian Gu Qing Feng and Qian Gu Dong Feng, sitting in the living room, he was puzzled. What was going on? Why were they all gathered together?
Do they have team building activities at the Spirit Pagoda? How come he, the pagoda master, doesn't know about it!
Han Tianyi saw the location sent to her communicator and nodded to Qian Gu Die Ting.
Qian Gu Die Ting looked at Qian Gu Dong Feng, who was completely bewildered: "Dong Feng, come on! Father will take you to make a lot of money!"
The East Wind Through the Ages: Huh?
Chapter 80 Cai Yue'er Gets Hit Over
"The second arena battle is now beginning!"
As soon as Ya Li finished speaking, she, He Yushu, and the old man in the dark green robe disappeared!
The bright sunlight that had been shining in the hall where Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na Er were was gone, replaced by a thick sense of darkness and a familiar feeling of weightlessness.
The entire space began to rotate, and the surrounding scenery changed drastically. Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na Er exchanged a glance as they watched the changing scene around them.
The ground suddenly turned into a turbulent ocean, with a black fish fin half a meter tall swimming around in the water below them!
Summoning the Holy Flame Dragon, Na'er approached the Thousand Ancient Dust floating in mid-air: "Boss! This scene is just like our Spirit Ascension Platform!"
Qian Gu Chen Ran nodded and then shook his head. Four dense black soul rings appeared behind him in turn. As Tai Xu Qie Wai stretched out his hand towards the bottom, the second soul ring flashed.
A flash of silver light appeared, and the Great White Shark of the Ten Thousand Year Demon Soul was lifted up by the thief. The first purple soul ring behind Na'er flickered, and silver dragon flames wrapped around the silver dragon spear. She stabbed fiercely at the head of the Great White Shark of the Demon Soul!
The Great White Shark, whose movements were restricted by the passage of time, was powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as the silver fiery dragon shadow pierced through its head.
As the Silver Dragon Spear pierced through, the silver flames immediately destroyed the Demon Soul Great White Shark's body, and the Ancient Dust's Dark Gold Terror Claw followed closely behind, splitting the Demon Soul Great White Shark into five equal parts!
"It feels weird to cut like this; it's not as easy to use as the ones in our Spirit Pagoda!"
With the combined efforts of the two, even the millennia-old demonic great white shark could only last three seconds!
In the observation room, everyone present was astonished by the two's performance! Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er's teamwork was flawless. Control, kills, and finishing blows were executed without a word; every action was a natural reaction!
"Second round, the Colosseum, Chen Ran and Na'er, you both get a perfect score!" Ya Li's melodious voice rang out!
The original rules of the arena stipulated that the more participants there were, the stronger they were against the spirit beasts. Furthermore, participants were required to survive at least one minute of attack from the spirit beasts. Those who could inflict damage on the spirit beasts received bonus points.
However, Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er directly killed that ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, and their score was undoubtedly perfect!
After another dizzying spin, Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er returned to the hall where they had started, and a large door in front of them opened automatically.
Inside was a long corridor made up of countless guillotines, which made a sharp, whistling sound as they cut through the air!
Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er exchanged a glance. Na'er quickly ran behind Qian Gu Chen Ran and jumped onto his back: "Boss, charge!"
Qian Gu Chen Ran rolled his eyes. With the activation of Timeless Struggle, Qian Gu Chen Ran easily teleported over with Na'er on his back!
Inside the observation room, Ya Li and the others exchanged bewildered glances. This test assessed reaction time; completing it within thirty seconds earned six points, with one point added for every three seconds less.
Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er only took nine seconds, which should have been a perfect score according to normal circumstances. However, they didn't see any reaction speed at all, which showed how powerful Qian Gu Chen Ran's soul skill was!
He Yushu chuckled and said, "That's a perfect score. Chen Ran's ability to react instantly and use his soul skill is also a testament to his reaction speed!"
"Third challenge: Chen Ran and Na'er, ten points each!"
Na'er got off Qian Gu Chenran, and the two walked side by side into the next examination room. There sat Ya Li, He Yushu, and an old woman who had been staring at them with hostility.
Qian Gu Chen Ran raised an eyebrow. This must be the beggar version of Long Ye Yue Cai Yue Er!
"Chenran, Na'er, this test is about your special skills! You have two minutes to think about how to demonstrate your special skills to us! Martial spirit, combat skills, and soul skills are all acceptable," Ya Li said, looking expectantly at Qian Gu Chenran and Na'er.
The two soul skills they just used had given her a great surprise, especially Qian Gu Chen Ran's time-based soul skill.
Na'er stepped forward first, and the Silver Dragon Spear appeared in her hand. The Silver Dragon Flame and the Holy Flame Dragon merged into the Silver Dragon Spear.
She lightly swept her spear across the space in front of her, and the space beneath the spear tip began to distort and deform, emitting a piercing sound. Even though Na'er usually appeared very friendly, deep down she still revered power like a dragon.
Unlike Qian Gu Chen Ran, who pursued the terrifying destructive power of spatial attributes, Qian Gu Chen Ran preferred to control space at will! This was also what Tian Bao Yin Chan A Bao desired!
After watching Na'er's demonstration, Ya Li's eyes lit up: "Na'er, she mastered the Spear Soul at the age of ten. She possesses pure dragon blood, and her Martial Soul is the Silver Dragon Spear with spatial attributes."
The combined attack of the Soul Skill, Soul Spirit, and Gun Soul just now was quite creative! A perfect score!
Na'er happily walked back to Qian Gu Chenran's side and gave him a high five. Qian Gu Chenran stepped forward, raised an eyebrow at the innocent and eager Cai Yue'er in front of him!
He Yushu, who was standing to the side, had long since noticed that Cai Yue'er had ill intentions! A jade seal of emerald green appeared in his hand, ready to strike at any moment.
Cai Yue'er looked at Qian Gu Chenran and said calmly, "Qian Gu Chenran, at the age of ten, is a peerless genius even in our Shrek Academy. His innate spatial attribute martial soul is unprecedented!"
She paused for a moment, then said, "I can give you full marks for this test. But you have to agree to one condition first, or else..." Before Cai Yue'er could finish speaking, He Yushu had already slammed the emerald green jade seal hard onto the back of Cai Yue'er's head!
Bang! Even Cai Yue'er, a Super Douluo, was knocked unconscious by this blow. He Yushu nodded to Qian Gu Chenran: "Chenran, don't worry about her! This woman is mentally ill! You've passed this level! I'll take you to the next level!"
Ya Li stared at He Yushu in shock. She hadn't expected He Yushu to be so ruthless! He had knocked Cai Yue'er unconscious!
He Yushu looked at Ya Li, who was still in shock, with displeasure and transmitted his voice to her through his soul power: "Don't you understand what Cai Yue'er is here for? She's here to cause trouble on purpose!"
She was just about to threaten Chen Ran, but if I hadn't acted quickly, do you believe Chen Ran would have just left? What would have happened to the academy's reputation then!
Ya Li nodded. She had been about to stop Cai Yue'er as soon as she heard the threat. But He Yushu acted too quickly; he struck before Cai Yue'er could finish speaking!
"Yu Shu, Yue'er has already fainted! Shouldn't you stop!" Ya Li's eyes twitched. He Yu Shu's hands hadn't stopped during their conversation! Cai Yue'er's head was already smashed to pieces, a bloody mess.
He Yushu nodded and led Qian Gu Chenran and Na'er to the next examination hall! Ya Li hurriedly took Cai Yue'er to Elder Li, who was wearing a dark green robe, at the first examination hall!
She didn't dare to treat Cai Yue'er's injuries, fearing she would cause a scene after waking up! Besides, He Yushu acted with restraint; the injuries looked serious but weren't serious at all!
Old Li's eyes twitched. Ya Li left the mess behind and ran away, but he didn't want to take over this mess either!
He sighed and could only send Cai Yue'er back to the Sea God Pavilion alone!
Qian Gu Chen Ran and Na'er exchanged a glance. Their years of tacit understanding allowed Qian Gu Chen Ran to understand the meaning in Na'er's eyes.
Na'er: Boss, what grudge does Uncle He have against Shrek Academy? Why is he so ruthless?!
Qian Gu Chen Ran: Mind your own business. Cai Yue'er deserved to be beaten because she's so disliked!
Na'er: Boss is right, she was threatening you just now. We should have just thrown out the backup plan Uncle Qingfeng left for you! Kill that Cai Yue'er!
Qian Gu Chen Ran: Uncle He acted too quickly.
Chapter 81 The Heavenly Monarch, Eternal Dust
"Chenran, Na'er, the next test is on your second profession. Chenran doesn't need to take this test, after all, he's a level 5 blacksmith at ten years old. Even if these idiots are arrogant, they can't find anything wrong with him! But Na'er, you definitely have to take the test!"
As they were talking, He Yushu led the two to another room. The two stood aside while Na'er stepped forward alone and made a quick pass!
Na'er chose mecha designer and mecha maker as her second career. Among the secondary careers, mecha designer is the easiest to advance in the early stages. The basic requirements for this career are that the Soul Master must have high spiritual power and a certain degree of comprehension.
Mecha engineers, on the other hand, need constant practice. As the incarnation of the Silver Dragon King's three-fold essence, Na'er's mental strength is rarely matched among her peers. Qian Gu Chen Ran often gives Na'er the metals he forges to practice with, and Mu Ye personally teaches and guides her.
Under these circumstances, Na'er became a Level 4 mecha designer and a Level 3 mecha builder at the age of ten.
"Fifth level, Eternal Dust, Na'er gets a perfect score!" Ya Li was also amazed when she saw Na'er's design drawings. There are not many people in Shrek who can become a level four designer at the age of ten.
