Su Yu grinned and said, "I don't think you're any smarter than Dong'er." "If Dong'er is a silly girl, then you're a dumb girl." "Dumb girl, my foot! I think you're the dumb one! Hmph!" Snow Empress snorted, lifted her short little leg, and kicked Su Yu's leg repeatedly. Su Yu chuckled, pulled her into his arms, and playfully kneaded her, occasionally planting a kiss on her chubby cheeks. This earned him a series of disdainful glares from little Snow Empress, who kept calling him a beast. As the two of them fooled around, the carriage slowly made its way north along the official road. ... Inner Court, Dean's Office. Looking at the withdrawal notice Du Weilun handed over, Yan Shaozhe sprang to his feet, his face full of anger. "Wang Dong'er withdrew from the academy?" Du Weilun looked embarrassed and said, "Yes, Wang Dong'er hasn't attended classes for a long time. Today, she finally showed up, left this withdrawal notice, and left." "She didn't even give us time to react." Yan Shaozhe's eyes widened. "Couldn't you have forced her to stay?" "You're a Soul Douluo! You can't even stop a Soul King?" Du Weilun said weakly, "But she had a burly Tai Tan following her… Who would dare to stop her?" Yan Shaozhe's mouth twitched. He had noticed that Tai Tan before. After all, he was now a Level 98 Super Douluo, no longer as weak as before. But even so, he still wasn't a match for Tai Tan. The pressure Tai Tan gave him was not much weaker than what Mu Wu could exert. Yan Shaozhe understood that he was still far from being on par with these true top-tier powerhouses. But what he hadn't expected was that Wang Dong'er would bring Tai Tan with her just to formally withdraw. And with a withdrawal notice, no less. If she had at least written a request, Yan Shaozhe would have felt a little better. But a notice? That was just too arrogant. "Damn it!" Yan Shaozhe slammed his palm on the desk, instantly shattering it. "The Clear Sky Sect was the one who actively sought to join Shrek Academy. And now, they're just leaving like this?" "Coming and going as they please?" "What do they think our Shrek Academy is?" "This is outright humiliation!" Yan Shaozhe was furious, feeling like he had been played. Originally, the Clear Sky Sect had reached out first, and Shrek Academy had given them a face by allowing Wang Dong'er to join midway. But now, Wang Dong'er's actions left no room for respect for Shrek Academy. Of course, Yan Shaozhe was upset. He had even been considering giving Wang Dong'er special approval to enter the Inner Court, considering she was already a Soul King. But now? This whole situation made him feel like a complete fool, played from beginning to end. Special approval? She hadn't even considered Shrek Academy worthy of her time. "Wang Dong'er… Wang Dong… Hmph, she must have left because of Su Yu." "Otherwise, why did she choose to leave right after Su Yu left?" Yan Shaozhe had spotted a key detail and felt more and more suspicious of Wang Dong'er. The timing was just too perfect to ignore. Over the past three months, Wang Dong'er had barely attended any classes. From what he had heard, she had been following Su Yu around every single day. If she wasn't obsessed with Su Yu, Yan Shaozhe swore he'd chop off his head and use it as a chamber pot. But the fact that Wang Dong'er had pulled such a stunt just for a romantic relationship? Even Yan Shaozhe couldn't help but feel deeply frustrated. It was too humiliating. From beginning to end, Shrek Academy had never even been in Wang Dong'er's eyes. She had never taken them seriously in the first place. That was what Yan Shaozhe found hardest to accept. "What a joke… Clear Sky Sect… Wang Dong'er… Fine, fine! So they think they can make fools out of us?" "One day, we will get our revenge for this disgrace." Yan Shaozhe clenched his fists and chose to endure for now. The Clear Sky Sect was too strong—far beyond what Shrek Academy could handle at the moment. No matter how angry he was, he had to swallow it. But the tides of fate always shift. One day, Shrek Academy would make Clear Sky Sect pay the price. Yan Shaozhe silently made his vow. ... Half a month later. Sunset Forest. Sunset Forest, located outside Heavenly Soul City, was a soul beast habitat. However, compared to the renowned Star Dou Great Forest, Sunset Forest was vastly inferior in both soul beast variety and quality. "These are all just ordinary ten-year-old soul beasts. What are you doing here?" "The way I see it, the highest-level soul beast here is maybe ten thousand years old at best." "These beasts aren't nearly strong enough for you. You're just wasting your time." A crisp and delicate voice suddenly echoed through the tranquil Sunset Forest. A few figures appeared quietly. One of them was a tall young man dressed in white, with a sharp, handsome face. A small snowflake imprint adorned his brow, exuding an air of icy nobility. In his arms, he held a little girl who looked about three years old. The voice had come from her. Beside the white-clad youth was a fiery red silhouette—a woman with a stunning figure and exquisite features. These three were, of course, Su Yu and his companions. Holding Snow Empress in his arms, Su Yu chuckled. "Little Snow, did I ever say I came here for a soul ring?" Snow Empress scrunched up her little face. "Then why are we here?" Su Yu smiled mysteriously and teased, "You'll find out soon enough." "Hmph, acting all mysterious…" Snow Empress snorted and shot Su Yu a glare. Su Yu laughed and quickened his pace. After about an hour, the three of them ventured deeper into Sunset Forest. As they advanced, the vegetation became increasingly dense. Snow Empress frowned more and more. She had noticed that not only were there no ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, but even thousand-year soul beasts were scarce. She was even more puzzled about Su Yu's intentions. What was this guy really up to? They pressed on toward the heart of the forest. A faintly chilling aura filled the air, and even the surrounding light dimmed. Sensing something was wrong, Snow Empress tugged on Su Yu's sleeve. "Su Yu, I have a bad feeling about this. Why does it feel so oppressive here?" Su Yu smirked. "You noticed?" Snow Empress rolled her eyes at him. "I'm not stupid. It's noon, yet the light here is so dim—something's off." Su Yu chuckled. "That's because there's a miasma covering this area." "Miasma?" Snow Empress's face changed. That could be dangerous. "Relax. With our group, there's no way we'd be in any real danger." "But from here on, we can't keep moving at this slow pace." "Xiaotao, come here." Ma Xiaotao obediently stepped up to Su Yu's side. In Snow Empress's surprised gaze, Su Yu suddenly stuffed her into the Hundred Treasures Pouch. Snow Empress: ????? "Don't look at me like that. The poison miasma ahead is very strong—someone specifically set up a poison formation here to guard the valley." "I could forcibly break the poison formation, but that would also remove the protection over whatever is inside." "So, we have no choice but to break through it." "Don't worry, it's completely safe." With that, Su Yu stuffed Snow Empress into the Hundred Treasures Pouch as well, then activated his protective soul power barrier and plunged directly into the miasma. Su Yu possessed an innate ability that rendered him immune to all evil influences, making poison completely ineffective against him. His soul-power-formed barrier naturally had the same effect. On top of that, he also wielded the power of Ultimate Ice—what was deadly to others was barely an inconvenience to him. The range of the miasma was immense. Using a soul tool to fly, Su Yu traveled for nearly ten minutes, covering seven to eight kilometers before finally reaching what appeared to be his destination. There, the poison clouds sank low, and the miasma was at its densest. Hovering in midair, Su Yu found himself facing an entirely different world—an expanse of brilliant green. The lush green glow spread across the land, where countless vibrant green plants, seemingly chaotic yet forming a complete spread, covered vast areas of the ground. A faint green mist rose from the plants, gradually dispersing into the surroundings. These plants extended endlessly to both sides. Though not tall—only about half a meter high—each had nine oddly shaped leaves. These leaves resembled human hands but with seven fingers, and some of the larger ones even had nine. At their tops, large green flowers bloomed, releasing a steady stream of green mist from their stamens. The mist slowly expanded outward, merging into the surrounding multicolored poison miasma. "Green Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers, and even Green Phosphorus Nine-Absolute Flowers… Were these planted by Dugu Bo, or perhaps by Tang San?" "Either way, with these guarding the place, ordinary people wouldn't be able to get in." Muttering to himself, Su Yu charged toward the valley beyond the sea of Green Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flowers. Sensing his movement, streams of multicolored miasma mixed with the green mist surged toward him. These clouds moved with an eerie intelligence, almost as if they were alive. This verdant realm contained many Green Phosphorus Nine-Absolute Flowers. Once a Green Phosphorus Seven-Absolute Flower evolved into a Nine-Absolute Flower, it became a plant-type soul beast. Moreover, any Nine-Absolute Flower was at least a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast. Ten-thousand-year soul beasts possessed intelligence—and here, there were hundreds, possibly thousands of them. The poison mist they generated was so deadly that even a regular Titled Douluo would likely perish upon entering. Unfortunately for them, Su Yu was far from ordinary. The Green Phosphorus Poison Mist was utterly ineffective against him. In a mere instant, he had traversed what would have been a death zone for any ordinary soul master, reaching the valley's edge. Before he could advance further, a sudden tearing sound split the air. A massive vine, deep blue with streaks of rainbow patterns, as thick as an adult's thigh, lashed toward him like a giant serpent. Su Yu frowned. With a flick of his right hand, his Dark Gold Dreadclaw slashed horizontally, slicing the vine into countless pieces. The next moment, Su Yu took to the skies, distancing himself from the cliffside and diving toward the valley below. After descending approximately three hundred meters, the surrounding miasma finally dissipated. The entire valley was revealed before him. Inside, an abundance of plants flourished—flowers and grasses of various colors competing in beauty, creating a mesmerizing scene. Fruits hung heavily from the vegetation, emitting a radiant glow that immediately marked them as extraordinary treasures. The distant mountain walls were covered in blue-purple vines, standing like guardians protecting the valley. However, what truly caught Su Yu's attention was the lake at the valley's center. The lake was divided into two distinct halves—one white, one fiery red—forming a perfect contrast. Thick spiritual energy surged from the lake, carrying an overwhelming aura of life. Even the Lake of Life at the heart of the Star Dou Forest did not possess such an intense concentration of spiritual energy. Though this lake was much smaller in scale, in terms of rarity, it surpassed the Lake of Life. "The Yin-Yang Ice-Fire Well… I've finally found it." Su Yu exhaled softly, accelerating his descent. Before he even landed, a delicate fragrance wafted into his nose. A pink mist rose, enveloping him. Su Yu focused his gaze. It was a massive pale pink flower, with no leaves, a stem nearly three meters tall, and petals as translucent as crystal. The flower swayed gently in the mist, growing at the intersection of the red and white springs. Surprisingly, no other plants grew within a ten-meter radius of it. The pink mist it released was intoxicatingly fragrant, and just a single breath of it filled one's body with comfort. Su Yu raised an eyebrow. "Aromatic Silk Beauty." ["Oh?"] ["You recognize me?"] The pale pink flower swayed, speaking in a gentle female voice—clear and pleasant to the ear. Su Yu didn't respond immediately. Instead, he glanced around. As expected of the Yin-Yang Ice-Fire Well, the sheer number of rare treasures within was staggering. Each plant here was a priceless treasure in the outside world. Several of them, like the Aromatic Silk Beauty, occupied entire areas on their own. With just a glance, Su Yu easily identified them. Radiant Tulip, Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, Earth Dragon Golden Gourd, Black Jade Divine Bamboo… Each radiated a terrifying aura, comparable to that of a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast.

Why are you ignoring me?"] ["If you keep ignoring me, I won't protect you anymore! Without my fragrance shielding you, the sheer presence of the other plants and the Yin-Yang Ice-Fire Well's energy will be enough to harm you."] ["Hurry, hurry, talk to me!"] The pale pink flower swayed urgently, persistently urging Su Yu. It was as if no one had visited for a long time, and it simply wanted someone to chat with. "A hundred-thousand-year-old Aromatic Silk Beauty… quite rare. Must be due to the Yin-Yang Ice-Fire Well." "Plants growing here mature ten times faster than in the outside world. This place is truly a paradise for them." Su Yu looked at the pink flower and spoke calmly.
