……

"So comfortable, I finally drew a second martial soul!"

On a mountain peak north of Thomas City, a young man clenched his fists tightly, his youthful face filled with joy.

The young man was named Bai Zhou, a transmigrator who had arrived in this world 11 years ago and become the son of the White Horse City Lord.

Bai Zhou had decent talent; at 11 years old, he was already a Level 21 Great Soul Master. Unfortunately, his martial soul was a Wishing Tree, which had only one ability—to make a wish.

As long as he silently wished for something in his heart, such as a cake, he could instantly manifest it by consuming soul power, or manifest other items.

The premise was that he had to be able to imagine it, and the item had to be extremely simple, common, and devoid of spiritual energy. For instance, wishing for a soul bone was absolutely impossible.

No matter what soul ring the Wishing Tree added, it wouldn't increase soul skills; it could only increase the number of wishes and slightly increase the complexity of the wished-for items.

Therefore, this martial soul was only suitable for coaxing children...

Just a month ago, Bai Zhou's transmigrator welfare finally activated, granting him a "Wishing System" that fused with his Wishing Tree.

The sole function of the "Wishing System" was to make his Wishing Tree bear fruit. Every time he picked a fruit, Bai Zhou would receive a reward.

The rewards were diverse: pills, heavenly treasures, cultivation methods, martial arts, weapons, various items to increase soul ring age, soul tools, and so on—everything one could ask for. Moreover, he could use his wishes to obtain specific types of rewards, though not with a 100% success rate.

The Wishing System was essentially a "blind box" system, but it had a pity mechanic, with one chance per day...

Bai Zhou performed a 10-draw every 10 days and finally drew the second martial soul he had been longing for: the Blue Silver Emperor!... Actually, Bai Zhou had wished for the 'Golden Dragon King' as his second martial soul. Although there was a slight deviation, Bai Zhou was satisfied...

……

As the rewards were distributed, Bai Zhou's body also underwent tremendous changes.

A strange energy surged into his body, reshaping it; this was likely due to the fusion of the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul with his body.

Half an hour later, Bai Zhou had completely digested this reward.

"Calculating the time, it's about right. It's time to set off for Shrek..." Bai Zhou took a deep breath and began planning for his future.

He was joining Shrek not to improve his strength, but to increase his luck. The stronger his luck, the more accurate the "specific rewards" from the Wishing System would be. If he became strong enough, perhaps he could truly reach the point where his wishes would come true.

Shrek could be said to be the force with the most prosperous luck on the continent currently, and it even housed the world's Fated One, Huo Yu Hao.

Of course, Bai Zhou would not go and fawn over Huo Yu Hao.

Compared to Huo Yu Hao, Bai Zhou would rather try to rub off on Wang Dong'er's luck...

……

One month later, Shrek City.

People came and went outside Shrek City. The ancient city walls were bathed in the morning light, quietly guarding the prosperity of this ancient capital.

At the East Gate, a young man in white walked over slowly, looking up at this massive city.

"It's really big~"

Looking at the massive Shrek City, Bai Zhou couldn't help but sigh; it was much larger than the city his family lived in. Setting other things aside, Shrek was truly wealthy; after all, Shrek City didn't need to pay taxes and was independent of the Three Great Empires.

Carrying his father's recommendation letter, Bai Zhou walked slowly toward Shrek Academy.

Only by possessing a City Lord's recommendation letter could one have the qualification to be assessed by Shrek. According to the size of the city, each City Lord only had 5-10 recommendation spots.

And 99% of these spots would fall into the hands of nobles; for a commoner to obtain one was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

For example, Bai Zhou was a noble. Even though his soul power level was far inferior to some geniuses in the city, his father was the City Lord, so he naturally occupied one of the spots.

Shrek naturally knew about these unspoken rules but tacitly allowed them; after all, the resources Shrek invested in cultivating commoners versus cultivating monsters were different.

Cultivating commoner students, while it could gain a student loyal to Shrek, required a huge investment.

Cultivating noble students, with the support of the students' families, only required simple guidance from Shrek, and the invested resources were negligible.

If the entire academy were full of commoners, Shrek would go bankrupt sooner or later.

……

Today was the day the academy had just opened. Because students came from all over the continent and there were many of them, the enrollment period lasted for 3 days.

Bai Zhou didn't know which day Huo Yu Hao would arrive, but no matter which day it was, Bai Zhou knew the other's dormitory; he would just snatch it once he arrived.

Bai Zhou strolled into Shrek's main gate and, following the signs, arrived at Shrek Academy's enrollment office to present the City Lord's recommendation letter.

The person in charge of the test was an old man with graying temples. He glanced at Bai Zhou's recommendation letter, nodded, and continued: "Extend your right hand; I need to test your bone age."

Bai Zhou complied, followed by tests for soul power level and martial soul.

Bai Zhou had Level 21 soul power, and the Blue Silver Emperor's two soul rings were both over 900-year-old century soul rings, so passing the assessment was naturally a breeze.

Shrek knew he had a Wishing Tree martial soul, but because it was too trashy, they ignored it directly; after all, Bai Zhou's Blue Silver Emperor martial soul was enough to pass the assessment.

After passing the first level of assessment, the next was the second level, which was similar to a combat power assessment.

Because the Outer Court didn't only accept "monsters," the assessment was quite lenient.

After all, the minimum standard for enrollment was Level 15 soul power, and most of them were nobles who came to gild themselves, with an average strength of around Level 17.

With Bai Zhou's strength, he naturally passed all subsequent assessments with ease, successfully enrolled, and obtained his dormitory number plate—107.

"Sigh, I came too early after all..."

Seeing his dormitory number plate, Bai Zhou felt a bit depressed.

However, he quickly thought of a way—snatching a dormitory.

Because he had to be in the same dormitory as Wang Dong to rub off on his luck every day, but everyone's dormitory was already arranged, so he could only snatch it by force.

To borrow Shrek's famous saying—those who don't cause trouble are trash.

Fighting upon enrollment was also a tradition at Shrek; one would feel uncomfortable without having a fight.

Bai Zhou followed the signs and found the location of the dormitory building. Upon entering, he saw an old man in cloth clothes lying on a lounge chair, basking in the sun.

Bai Zhou glanced at the other person and instantly recognized his identity—Dragon God Mu En.

However, Bai Zhou was in a hurry to snatch the dormitory and couldn't be bothered to talk to him. He entered the dormitory building and found the location of his dormitory. If he remembered correctly, Huo Yu Hao's dormitory was right next to his...

Sure enough, half an hour later, the sound of huffing and puffing came from the room next door; it was clearly Huo Yu Hao, that poor guy, cleaning the dormitory...
