Chapter 3

Nothing much, I just didn't expect your martial soul, Little Night, to be so powerful, possessing the extreme ice attribute. You should know that throughout the history of the continent, there have hardly been any Soul Masters with extreme attributes." Even Mu Lao felt a bit uneasy.

But this also shows that your future achievements are limitless.

Mu Lao quickly reacted, and for some reason said teasingly.

Everyone in the room, able to be here, certainly had top-notch mental fortitude; after a brief shock, they followed Mu Lao in sighing over Chen Qiye's talent.

Although they didn't know what Chen Qiye's martial soul was like, just looking at the aura that had just erupted was enough for them to stand at the pinnacle of all martial souls.

Le Xuan! Take Little Night out to play for a bit; I still need to discuss some things with a few uncles here, okay?

Zhang Le Xuan nodded; just now Mu Lao had already passed a word to him, telling him not to spread what just happened to Chen Qiye.

Let's go, Brother Qiye.

Okay, Sister Le Xuan.

Just like that, Chen Qiye was led out by Zhang Le Xuan holding his little hand, leaving the Sea God Pavilion.

As for what just happened, Chen Qiye had guessed about eighty or ninety percent of it, because at the moment of his martial soul awakening, Jingliu did not let him know what his martial soul was like.

……

Far surpassing extreme attribute, what level of existence is this exactly?

After Chen Qiye left, Xuan Lao couldn't help but speak loudly; just now he indeed felt that suppression coming from the martial soul, as well as a coldness like an abyss.

Not only that, just now I probed Chen Qiye's body; his innate soul power is rank 20." Mu Lao said in a deep voice.

What, innate soul power rank 20? That isn't the legendary innate soul power only possessed by divine-level martial souls, is it?

The other Sea God Pavilion elders couldn't help but be shocked, for one must know that among the divine-level martial souls recorded in the history of the Douluo Continent, only the Six-Winged Angel of the Spirit Hall from ten thousand years ago remained; since then, no soul master with innate rank-20 soul power has appeared on the continent.

Thinking of this, the Sea God Pavilion elders all fell silent.

They all knew what this meant for the academy and the continent.

After the generation of Tang San's ancestor ten thousand years ago, a new trend is about to arrive! Mu Lao paused, then spoke again.

"So, from now until before he starts school, he will study with me, and I will personally guide his cultivation."

………

Afterwards, Chen Qiye went through a rather unhappy period; since awakening his martial soul at age six, the Sea God Pavilion elders discovered he possessed the Extreme Ice Severing Sword martial soul, and Mu Lao took him on as a personal disciple.

Furthermore, a sixteen-year engagement was set for him and Ma Xiaotao, who possesses the Evil Fire Phoenix.

On the day Chen Qiye turned sixteen and came of age, if both parties were willing, they would become husband and wife; if either was unwilling, this engagement would be annulled. And when Ma Xiaotao learned of the engagement set by the Sea God Pavilion for the two, her response at the time was ambiguous, but after learning that Chen Qiye possessed the Extreme Ice martial soul, she constantly sought him out to suppress her martial soul.

But because the gap in soul power between them was huge, each time he suppressed the evil fire, Chen Qiye felt as if ten thousand flames were burning him, causing him to always fear Ma Xiaotao; upon seeing her, he would always run……

Not only that, but every night Jingliu would pull Chen Qiye into the sea of consciousness to train swordsmanship; although the process was arduous, from initially only being able to emit a single sword energy, now he can unleash twelve sword energy with one swing, controlling three flying swords, which shows how formidable Chen Qiye's talent and Jingliu's teaching quality are.

Since Chen Qiye awakened his martial soul, he has already experienced six cycles of the seasons, and soon came to the time of his twelve-year-old 'formal' enrollment at Shrek Academy.

………

Shrek Academy, a boy of about eleven or twelve years old, holding a special recommendation letter, after undergoing a series of tests, also managed to scrape by and pass the assessment.

It must be said that Shrek Academy is no longer what it once was; ask among the commoners, who could possess a lord-level recommendation letter, and even if one had the qualifications, who could have lord-level connections?

Just this one requirement alone has already cut off the path for almost all commoners to enter Shrek Academy; in other words, Shrek has long since become a true noble academy.

In a certain sense, the boy who slew the dragon has become the dragon himself.

Having ambition is not wrong for the Spirit Hall; everyone has desires, only positions differ, and no one can judge right or wrong. Back then, the Spirit Hall would issue subsidies to Soul Masters, so that commoner Soul Masters' lives would not be so straitened, and it would also provide free martial soul awakenings for commoners.

But now, in the world of the Absolute Tang Sect, if you have no money, who will care about your life or death? From the perspective of the Spirit Hall, he stands on the side of the commoners' interests, while Tang San and his ilk stand on the side of the nobles' interests.

After the Spirit Hall was completely wiped out, the City of Carnage was also destroyed by Tang San, who claimed to be acting justly.

After that, evil Soul Masters ran rampant, nobles vied for power and profit, and the once peaceful Tian Dou Empire was split into the Tian Hun Empire and the Dou Ling Empire.

Even so, Chen Qiye could only complain a bit.

After all, throughout history, history is written by the victors; the losers have nothing. If the Spirit Hall had won back then, the Shrek Academy and the Shrek Seven Monsters would now be nothing.

The boy looked about eleven or twelve years old, with a head of white hair that fell past his shoulders and hung loose behind him; his whole body was clad in a white long robe, and his features were not extraordinarily handsome.

Chen Qiye's outstanding appearance caused all the newly enrolled students along the way to stop and stare, unable to help turning back to look? Several dozen meters away, two boys and a girl were also observing the statue in the square—one boy was tall and slender, another boy was youthful yet resolute, and the girl wore a lively expression.

"What's happened, Ya Ya sister?" Huo Yuhao said, looking at the crowd gathered there.

"I don't know."

"Never mind what happened; Xiao Yuhao, your enrollment comes first." Tang Ya said.

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but glance back, and Chen Qiye also noticed the three, especially Huo Yuhao, whose lively big eyes exuded a yearning for strength.

The two locked eyes, as if a fated showdown were about to begin.
