Time flows like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye three years had passed.
If you were to talk about the biggest change near Soutou City, it would undoubtedly be the Shrek Academy outside the city. In these three years, continuous construction has taken place, and various facilities have sprung up. Although no students have been enrolled yet, at least it doesn't look as desolate as before. However, today's Soutou City is not calm. With the entrance of a man and a woman, a storm is brewing.
.....
Shrek Academy.
"I didn't expect Dai Mubai and Tang San to still fight" murmured Gu Yi as he looked in a certain direction. "But this time, Tang San is probably going to lose." Shaking his head, Gu Yi couldn't muster any interest in these childish fights and decided to go back to preparing exam papers.
"Super Strength?" Tang San looked at Dai Mubai's body glowing with golden light. It felt like hitting a rock, even with the added force of the Mysterious Jade Hands, he could feel the recoil.
"Kid, your Blue Silver Grass is useless against me. Now it's my turn," Dai Mubai grinned. This skill of his was exchanged with quite a few credits, and its effect was remarkable.
"Damn, if only I had Dragon Beard Needle, specifically for breaking the cultivation of Super Strength practitioners." Tang San had already prepared some hidden weapons in his hand. While Blue Silver Grass was effective against ordinary enemies, it was somewhat inadequate against opponents with superior defense and spirit power. He still relied on the Mysterious Jade Hands he had secretly learned in his past life. As the hidden weapons were deployed, Dai Mubai found it a bit difficult to handle, but he still relied on his technique to rush forward, engaging in a few rounds with Tang San.
After pulling out the hidden weapons embedded in his body, Dai Mubai, with a proud smile, said to Tang San, who was battered and bruised, "I'll be waiting for you at Shrek Academy." Then he left with the twins. But his steps seemed a bit floating and awkward.
"Teacher's words are indeed true. There are talents everywhere in the world," Tang San had to admit that this person's pure strength surpassed his own, but in a life-and-death struggle, he would ultimately emerge victorious.
Xiao Wu, I'll protect you well.
Tang San looked affectionately at Xiao Wu beside him, thinking to himself.
"Brother San, are you okay?" Xiao Wu looked at Tang San, who was bruised and swollen, with a heartache and glanced angrily at Dai Mubai, who had not yet gone far.
"I'm fine. Both of us kept our limits and didn't go all out," Tang San shook his head but remembered what Dai Mubai said before leaving, "He mentioned waiting for us at Shrek Academy." Tang San completely believed in the teacher's words.
The next day.
There wasn't much difference in the situation; it was still the same people arriving. As for the sausage farce, Oscar didn't care about those trivial matters anymore. Gu Yi looked at the energetic young men and women, including Tang San and Xiao Wu.
"It's really unbelievable as portrayed in animations. It's hard to imagine someone being so outstanding at the age of twelve. But their condition and emotions seem a bit off," Gu Yi remarked, feeling somewhat favorably towards Zhu Zhuqing, among others. Except for Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai, who were standing together, the others seemed indifferent.
"Quiet. Now it's time for my assessment requirements," Gu Yi's presence sent shivers down everyone's spine, making them dare not speak. This time, Gu Yi didn't organize a collective battle as in the original. Moreover, considering they were all strangers, what cooperation could there be? The key was when Tang San requested another fight, the others surprisingly agreed, which was crucial. If Ning Rongrong came just to play, then Zhu Zhuqing specifically came to Shrek Academy to find Dai Mubai, which Tang San could tolerate. Moreover, they each had different directions in their cultivation, so naturally, the test methods would vary.
"Auxiliary System Spirit Masters raise your hands," Ning Rongrong obediently raised her right hand, still feeling a bit scared from the aura just now.
"Control System Spirit Master raise your hand," Tang San raised his hand.
"Agility Attack System Spirit Master raise your hand," Zhu Zhuqing raised her hand.
.....
"Good, the distribution of roles is quite diverse," Gu Yi smiled and continued, "Dai Mubai, I'll leave this girl named Xiao Wu to you. If you think she's qualified to join the academy, she passes." Gu Yi handed Xiao Wu to Dai Mubai, a power attacker, seemingly thinking of something, and continued speaking to Dai Mubai, "If you dare to go easy, I'll keep an eye on you." Those eyes seemed to possess some kind of magic. After staring at Dai Mubai for a second, he trembled all over and quickly said, "I dare not, I dare not."
"Ma Hongjun, take to the sky for me," the chubby boy behind him smiled, "Watch closely, Brother Yi." With fiery wings flapping, he lifted his body into the air.
"Ning Rongrong, your task is to assist him three times with your spirit skills within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
"That's easy," Ning Rongrong thought it was nothing difficult. She thought it would be some complicated task, but it turned out to be just using spirit skills, making it all seem serious. She thought there would be some harsh test. Really? You'll know in a moment.
Gu Yi then turned his gaze to Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing.
"Considering the shortage of manpower in the academy for the time being, I'll personally assess both of you." Tang San's mind was not here at all. He worriedly looked in Xiao Wu's direction. He knew Dai Mubai's strength, and Xiao Wu wouldn't be his match.
"Tang San." A voice as loud as a drum shook Tang San's soul. This voice wasn't heard with ears, but perceived mentally, making it resonate deeply.
"Despite being a Control System Spirit Master, you seem quite inadequate now," Gu Yi shook his head. Tang San understood that now was not the time to worry about Xiao Wu, but he couldn't help it, he couldn't stop caring.
"Who's ready to go first?" Gu Yi asked. Tang San volunteered himself, as he only wanted to pass the assessment as quickly as possible and check on Xiao Wu's condition.
