Shrek City, City Entry Registration
Su Yu used the Space Stone to arrive directly inside the Clear Sky Sect. Because the sect had secluded itself from the world, it had far fewer disciples than the sects outside. Niu Tian, or Da Ming, pursued quality over quantity, so the entire Clear Sky Sect only had a few hundred people.
Compared to the outside sects, especially the Tang Sect, the Clear Sky Sect had far too few people. The Tang Sect now had tens of thousands of disciples, and not a single one had been recruited merely to pad the numbers. Shrek Academy had over ten thousand current and graduated students as well.
When Su Yu suddenly appeared within the Clear Sky Sect, all its disciples were startled and watched him warily. Su Yu said, "Go call out your sect master and deputy sect master."
"Who are you? What business do you have with our sect master?" someone asked.
Su Yu replied, "I’m your sect master and deputy sect master’s older brother."
The scene suddenly fell silent. No matter how they looked at him, Su Yu did not seem older than Niu Tian and Tai Tan. However, Da Ming and Er Ming had acknowledged Xiao Wu as their older sister back then, so Su Yu naturally became their older brother.
Someone quickly ran off to notify Niu Tian and Tai Tan. As the two sat in the main hall, they heard that someone claiming to be their older brother had arrived outside. The image of one person immediately surfaced in both their minds, and they came out with smiles.
The moment Niu Tian and Tai Tan saw Su Yu, they ran over. Su Yu hugged each of them and said, "My two little brothers, long time no see."
Tai Tan coughed. "Ahem, Xiao Yu, why are you here? Didn’t Sister Xiao Wu say that you had left this world?"
"Come on, let’s talk in the main hall," Niu Tian said.
The three nodded and headed for the main hall together. All the Clear Sky Sect disciples were stunned. They had not expected Su Yu to really be their sect master and deputy sect master’s older brother!
Inside the main hall
The three sat together. Su Yu said, "I did leave. Isn’t it perfectly normal for me to come back?"
"Did you go to the God Realm to see Yu Xi Aunt?" Niu Tian asked, looking at Su Yu.
Su Yu nodded. "Of course, the first thing I did after returning was visit my mother. Oh, right, Xiao Wu is about to have a child."
"Really? A boy or a girl?" the two asked excitedly.
"A girl. You should be able to see her in another two thousand years," Su Yu said with a smile.
The two were somewhat confused. How could they see her on the Douluo Continent? Niu Tian asked in surprise, "Will Xiao Wu’s child return to the Douluo Continent?"
Su Yu nodded. "Children of the God Realm have to undergo training in worlds like the Douluo Continent when they are young, so she’ll come to the Douluo Continent then."
"Two thousand years from now? I can’t wait to meet Xiao Wu’s child," the two said excitedly.
"By the way, Xiao Yu, what are you doing on the Douluo Continent this time?" Niu Tian asked.
Su Yu waved his hand. "The God Realm is way too boring. I came here to take a few laps around."
"Then that’s great. Stay at the Clear Sky Sect," Tai Tan said.
Su Yu immediately shook his head. "Your Clear Sky Sect only has a few hundred people altogether. I might as well go back to the God Realm. I want to travel around, then return to Shrek for a look."
"Alright, then. How long will you be staying?" Niu Tian asked Su Yu.
Su Yu replied, "Probably until Wu Tong leaves."
"Wu Tong? Is that Xiao Wu’s daughter’s name?" Niu Tian and Tai Tan murmured Wu Tong’s name.
Su Yu nodded. "Wu from Xiao Wu, Tong from the paulownia tree. I have to admit, Xiao San is pretty good at naming people."
The two nodded as well. Tang Wutong—"Butterfly dragons dance across the world, autumn grace and winter hues intoxicate beneath the paulownia." That line was the origin of Tang Wutong’s name. Su Yu had liked both the line and the name ever since he first saw it.
After Su Yu chatted with Niu Tian and Tai Tan for a long time, he left the Clear Sky Sect. Su Yu did not feel particularly close to the Tang Sect, but Shrek Academy was different. Thus, the first place he wanted to visit after leaving the Clear Sky Sect was Shrek Academy.
Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect were the two great powers of the world, each with a Limit Douluo overseeing it. However, the Tang Sect still could not compare to Shrek Academy. Shrek Academy had more than one Limit Douluo, as well as two Super Douluo and four Titled Douluo, while the Tang Sect only had one Limit Douluo and four Titled Douluo.
Moreover, that Limit Douluo and those four Titled Douluo were all graduates of Shrek Academy. Thus, Shrek Academy was the true number one power in the world. If Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect did not stay out of imperial affairs, those empires would likely have long been unable to resist launching full-scale attacks on Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect.
Shrek City
Shrek City in this era had only just begun to settle into order and was not yet very prosperous. Still, many people were willing to come here. After all, Shrek Academy was here. For eight thousand years, ever since Xiao San and the other seven had become gods, Shrek Academy had remained the place everyone yearned for.
Su Yu arrived outside Shrek City. Shrek City’s defenses were fairly strong. With a single glance, Su Yu saw two city guard squads, each led by a Soul Saint. Since Shrek City had only recently been established, it was particularly cautious. Experts above the Soul Saint rank had to register their identities at Shrek Academy before entering Shrek City.
When Su Yu reached the gate, two guards stopped him. One of them said, "Sir, please present your City Entry Permit."
"Uh, I don’t have one." Su Yu paused. He had not expected the newly established Shrek City to be so cautious that it even required a City Entry Permit. There had been no such requirement in Peerless Tang Sect.
The guard continued, "Sir, please come with me. We’ll process one for you."
As he spoke, one of the guards led Su Yu into a temporarily constructed wooden hut beside the City Gate. There was someone inside. Upon seeing the guard bring Su Yu in, the person took out a blank permit that had been prepared beforehand and placed it into a Soul Tool that looked much like a printer.
After Su Yu entered, the man placed both hands on a Soul Tool that looked much like a computer and asked, "Name, gender, age, Martial Soul, Soul Power, Soul Ring configuration. Answer in the order I ask."
Su Yu cooperatively answered, "Su Yu, male, um… I forgot my age, Martial Soul… Dragongallbladder Bright Silver Spear, Soul Power rank ninety-nine, Soul Rings: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red."
The registrar was dumbfounded. What the hell? He forgot his age? Was he stupid or something…
The registrar sized Su Yu up and down, then asked doubtfully, "You’re really a Limit Douluo? I wouldn’t believe it even if you beat me to death."
