Mu En felt somewhat helpless. He thought to himself that it was best to send these students to the inner court as soon as possible. According to the agreement between Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, as long as they met the requirements, exchange students from both sides could enter the inner court for advanced studies. For Sun Moon Academy, their equivalent of an inner court was essentially Mingde Hall. However, the main issue now was how to train these exchange students once they entered the inner court. Shrek Academy's inner court was highly specialized, requiring students to complete a series of monitoring and reconnaissance tasks before graduation. But these exchange students were the elite of Sun Moon Empire especially Xiao Hongchen. Given his strength, he was more than qualified for inner court studies. However, as Jing Hongchen's grandson, how could Shrek possibly let someone like him risk his life on such dangerous missions? Moreover, Beibei was still at Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy. If Xiao Hongchen died during a mission, then the Shrek exchange students would certainly face retribution, making things even worse. This meant risky assignments were out of the question for Sun Moon's exchange students those could only be handled by Shrek students. So what exactly could the inner court teach them? They couldn't possibly have Qian Duoduo teach them about soul tools, could they? That would just be self inflicted humiliation. Even though Shrek Academy had eighth rank soul engineers, their standards weren't as high as Mingde Hall's. If judged by Mingde Hall's criteria, Shrek's eighth rank soul engineers might only be seventh rank. This made Mu En's headache even worse. Realistically, the most attractive aspect of Shrek's inner court for soul masters was the Golden Tree. Training beneath the Golden Tree greatly enhanced cultivation, but up until now, it had never been opened to outsiders. Furthermore, since the Sun Moon Empire's exchange students and instructors wouldn't be fully sharing their knowledge, Shrek Academy wouldn't allow them to train under the Golden Tree either. As for learning about soul tools, Mu En only had high hopes for He Caitou and Fan Yu. As for Beibei... Well, Mu En wasn't expecting him to become an expert. He just hoped Beibei would gain a better understanding of soul tools. Now that Beibei's martial soul had evolved into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, he might even become the leader of Shrek's next generation. So the biggest challenge now was: How should they train the Sun Moon exchange students? Letting them take risks wasn't an option. Fully nurturing them wasn't realistic either. Simply letting them do as they pleased was out of the question. They needed to ensure that these students fully experienced the honor and prestige of Shrek Academy. "It seems I'll have to convene a Sea God's Pavilion meeting later," Mu En thought to himself. He had already drafted a potential training plan, but he wanted the other elders to share their perspectives first. After all, his time was running out. He couldn't continue guiding Shrek Academy forever. Even if he merged with the Golden Tree, his soul could only be preserved temporarily not permanently. The future of Shrek Academy would ultimately be decided by Xuan Zi and the other elders of the Sea God's Pavilion. As he thought about this, he instinctively looked up at the sky. A blazing sun hung high above, radiating intense heat. But due to his strength and martial soul, sunlight had little effect on him, so he could gaze at it without discomfort. Mu En's thoughts swirled. "Even if Shrek Academy faces destruction in the future, Tang San our ancestor in the Divine Realm will never step in to help." "After all, even when Tang Sect was nearly wiped out, he didn't interfere." "Shrek Academy must fend for itself." "But that Wang Dong... there's something truly peculiar about her. Even I can't fully see through her." "Is the Haotian Sect really this mysterious?" "And why is Wang Dong disguising herself as a boy? The Bright Goddess Butterfly martial soul is exclusively inherited by women it's obvious she's a girl!" At that moment, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed from the dormitory entrance. Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao approached Mu En and greeted him respectfully. "Elder Mu." Mu En snapped out of his thoughts and nodded, a smile forming on his lips. Truthfully, he enjoyed his role as the old caretaker beneath the dormitory. Watching the young, energetic students coming and going reminded him of his own youth a time worth cherishing. Just then, a loud voice called out. "Wang Dong! Come fight me in the Soul Dueling Arena!" Xiao Hongchen strode forward with confidence, his aura imposing. Wang Dong turned around, looking at him with confusion. "Xiao Hongchen, you've only been at Shrek Academy for a few days... I don't think we have any grudges, do we?" "You suddenly want to fight me why? You sound a lot like Dai Huabin. Are you two..." She stopped mid sentence, realizing that mentioning Dai Huabin wasn't appropriate he was already dead. Xiao Hongchen folded his arms across his chest and smirked. "I heard you're Shrek Academy's top talent. I came here to challenge geniuses like you." Lin Xi, standing beside him, was a bit stunned. Since when did Xiao Hongchen start praising people? This guy normally looks down on others why is he suddenly complimenting Wang Dong? The reason was simple: Jing Hongchen had instructed him to do this. By fighting Shrek's most talented students, Xiao Hongchen could gather valuable intelligence about them. When the next Continental Soul Master Tournament arrived, Sun Moon Empire would have a strategic advantage. As for relying on Huo Yuhao's Destiny Eye to foresee the future? Jing Hongchen believed Huo Yuhao's ability was powerful but unstable. It was better to let Xiao Hongchen investigate firsthand. Wang Dong frowned. "Do you just like picking fights?" "I'm only a three ring Soul Elder, while you're a five ring Soul King not to mention a fifth rank soul engineer. If we fight, I'd be at a massive disadvantage." The real problem wasn't Xiao Hongchen's Soul King rank it was his status as a fifth rank soul engineer. Even though Wang Dong wasn't afraid of him, she had recently been experiencing something strange. The presence of another consciousness inside her mind was growing stronger. Although her "Big Dad" and "Second Dad" kept telling her it was just an illusion, she was beginning to doubt them. She felt as if... there was another person inside her body. And because of this unknown presence, she had developed an increasingly strong aversion to soul tools. She simply didn't want to fight against someone like Xiao Hongchen, who would use an overwhelming amount of soul tools in battle. Just thinking about it made her scalp tingle. Xiao Hongchen tilted his chin slightly, then smirked and found a perfect excuse. "According to Shrek Academy's school motto, 'A coward who doesn't dare cause trouble is no genius.' "I am a genius. "And since I'm currently studying at Shrek Academy, I'm half a Shrek student so, naturally, I should cause trouble and pick fights to prove my genius!" Wang Dong was speechless. So that's how you interpret the school motto? Isn't this just shameless sophistry?! Thank you for the support, friends. If you want to read more chapters in advance, go to my Patreon.
