Tang Wulin spoke, “Oh right, where’s Xiaoyan? Why isn’t she here with you? I haven’t had the time to ask all of you.”

The golden-haired man was without a doubt Yue Zhengyu in disguise. He smiled. “She has her own path to take. She didn’t even tell me where she was going when she left, but I can roughly make a guess. Don’t worry, I’ve already contacted her. She will be arriving in another day or two. Big brother, even though you’re the champion in Federal Star Dou Battle Network Challenge, all of us have advanced our abilities too. Don’t you be defeated by us!”

Tang Wulin rolled his eyes at him. “Both of you should try and fight me in pair.”

Yue Zhengyu’s eyes glowed. “You said that. Don’t cry when you get defeated.”

Tang Wulin looked at him with astonishment. “It seems like you’re full of confidence! I suppose you’ve made a breakthrough to seven rings.”

Yue Zhengyu immediately showed a proud expression. “Is it that impressive? It’s nothing much.”

Tang Wulin said, “let’s go. This is not the place for a discussion.” Upon saying that, he released his grasp on Yue Zhengyu’s hand as they walked ahead.

Yue Zhengyu occasionally looked at the scenery on both sides of the street. “It feels really good to be back. What a waste that this is not Shrek City anymore.” His expression dimmed a little as he was speaking the final sentence. Tang Wulin was not the only person with profound emotions towards Shrek Academy. In reality, they had cultivated in Shrek Academy for three more years than Tang Wulin back then, so they were feeling even more reluctant than Tang Wulin to part with the academy.

Otherwise, he would not have been cultivating with such efforts during this period of time.

“Oh, I’m already a colonel. I’ve been promoted out of my capability in the Southern Army Corps. Even that old-fashioned grandfather of mine didn’t comment on that. How about you?” Yue Zhengyu used his shoulder to nudge Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin smiled. “You’re rather boastful huh! You must have been oppressed too much in the Southern Army Corps.”

Yue Zhengyu shrugged. “I spend every day cultivating, doing nothing but else. Ever since Xiaoyan left, I didn’t even have someone to talk to. How about Xie Xie and Yuanen? When are they coming back? There’s also Xinglan and Lizhi. Aren’t they here yet? I am not the first person, right?”

Tang Wulin said, “what’s wrong with becoming the first person to arrive? This shows that you’re motivated and positive. They should be arriving within the next few days too.”

Yue Zhengyu was quiet all of a sudden. He exhaled a long breath after a few seconds had passed. “It feels really good to reunite with everyone.”

Tang Wulin did not utter a word but he used his shoulder to nudge Yue Zhengyu. Yes! It truly felt too good to reunite with his companions!

Even though he was already leading the Blood Dragon Unit by himself and had the support of Shrek Academy and Tang Sect now, no one could measure up to these companions that had always been with him for so many years! They were the true Shrek Seven Monsters of today.

“Oh right, Zhengyu. Let me tell you some good news. You’re already one of the Sea God Pavilion’s elders now. You can now join the Sea God Pavilion’s meetings.”

Yue Zhengyu was stunned for a moment but his expression did not reveal any happiness. On the contrary, he bitterly smiled. “Sea God Pavilion’s Elder? Are we granting these titles to ourselves? Yes! There’s no one other than us.”

In order to give everyone a big surprise, Tang Wulin had not informed his companions about the news of so many people still being alive in Tang Sect during their conversation in soul communicator.

Yue Zhengyu felt like he sounded a little too serious. He chuckled in turn. “So, as the leader of the current generation’s Shrek Seven Monsters, are you supposed to be Sea God Pavilion’s Master then?”

Tang Wulin nodded. “That’s right!”

Yue Zhengyu smiled. “Very well then, we shall join hands as brothers to raise the Sea God Pavilion. By raising Shrek, we can certainly rebuild the academy, right?”

“That’s for sure,” Tang Wulin said forcefully.

Yue Zhengyu lowered his voice and said, “big brother, are you going to grant me the position of vice pavilion master? Since everyone is not back yet, you can grant the other position to Yuanen or Xinglan. There are usually two positions available for vice pavilion master, right?”

Tang Wulin looked at him with a sly smile. He said, “We shall discuss further during the Sea God Pavilion meeting. You should know that the Sea God Pavilion has always given priority to fairness and justice. We shall agree on the important affairs as a team.”

Yue Zhengyu shrugged. “Can’t you just pull some strings? It’s only a few of us anyway. Oh right, there’s also her excellency Holy Spirit Douluo. Could it be that the grand old woman is reluctant to become the Pavilion Master? Has she not yet recovered from the pain of losing someone?”

Tang Wulin heaved a sigh. “It’s not that easy to recover. Her heart has already died. If not because of her concern for Shrek, I’m afraid that...”

Yue Zhengyu’s expression turned dimmer too. “Frankly, the task of rebuilding Shrek is truly very difficult. Before I departed my grandfather talked to me regarding some affairs related to the political situation at the present. He is not optimistic about us at all.”

Tang Wulin was suddenly enlightened. “I suppose the Southern Army Corps belongs to the Hawk Faction, am I correct?”

Yue Zhengyu nodded. “Southern Army Corps is relatively special because they’re located further away from the rest of the army corps. Moreover, it is located on a richly-endowed land. Generally, the army corps don’t partake in political wars. However, my predecessor Yue Clan was once the lineage of the Martial Soul Hall’s Hall Master. In our clan precepts, there is enmity between us and the Star Luo Empire. Thus, the Southern Army Corps will certainly offer support if we are resorting to arms with it.”

Tang Wulin nodded. “How about our efforts to rebuild Shrek then? Will the Southern Army Corps support us?”

Yue Zhengyu bitterly smiled. “That’s very difficult! Even though the truth hits you like bricks, I’ll still have to speak it. Before I departed my grandfather told me that both he and the Southern Army Corps would never support our efforts to rebuild Shrek. This is because it is possible that this will immensely affect our clan.”

Even though Tang Wulin had already figured that this would happen, he still felt rather disappointed in his heart.

“However, that’s not for sure. My grandfather said that the Southern Army Corps wouldn’t make things difficult for us when we’re rebuilding Shrek. There are also two more possible situations in which he will give consideration to providing us with a certain amount of support. The first scenario is that we are capable of revealing our ability to resist the great forces during the process of rebuilding the academy. Under such circumstances, he’ll take consider providing support to a certain level. The other scenario is if I’m capable of becoming a four-word battle armor master. If that happens, then I’ll become the successor to the next Southern Army Corp’s regimental commander. The army will certainly lean towards me to a certain level on behalf of respect. However, it’s apparent that these two scenarios are not so easy to accomplish.”

Tang Wulin softly nodded upon listening to Yue Zhengyu’s words. It was true that this was no easy task.

Other than certain people gifted with special physical qualities, a soul master would generally have to cultivate to the Hyper Douluo-rank at the minimum in order to become a four-word battle armor master. However, it was inadequate for one to just become a Hyper Douluo on most occasions. This was because in order to become a four-word battle armor master one would need a Divine Craftsman’s Heavenly Refinement.

Hyper Douluos did not come in large numbers but they were not considered too few as well. On the other hand, every Heavenly Refinement was very exhausting for even the Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua. He would need to rest for a very long period of time after completing one set of four-word battle armor. Thus, it was already very rare for him to take on such a Heavenly Refinement mission.

“We’ll somehow find a way. You still have me.” Tang Wulin patted Yue Zhengyu’s shoulder.

Yue Zhengyu glanced at him with astonishment because he discovered that Tang Wulin’s expression did not seem to have a changed despite receiving such bad news. His eyes remained glimmering with spirit as if he was filled with confidence.

“Big brother, you seem to have grown even more confident after becoming the champion of Federal Star Dou Battle Network Challenge this time! I must certainly praise you for that.”

Tang Wulin smiled. “Confidence is derived from one’s capability. This way...” He pulled Yue Zhengyu while speaking and entered an alley by the side.

After using his spiritual power to sense that there was no spy in the surroundings, he pulled Yue Zhengyu into a courtyard.

Yue Zhengyu followed Tang Wulin as they entered Tang Sect’s underground world and he was astonished from the sight.

“This, this is...”

The extensive underground world startled Yue Zhengyu so much that he was left speechless. He watched the numerous workers bustling about and the mechas produced in the assembly line. Yue Zhengyu could not help swallowing a gulp of saliva.

“This belongs to the Tang Sect?” asked Yue Zhengyu in astonishment.

Tang Wulin nodded. “And us too.”

Tang Wulin brought him outside a door. The door opened by itself without waiting for then to ring the bell.

Lan Muzi had just walked out from the inside coincidentally. He smiled upon seeing Tang Wulin. He bowed and called out, “Pavilion Master.”

“Senior brother disciple Lan, there’s no need to be overly courteous.” Tang Wulin nodded toward him with a smile. He was now already capable of conducting himself with dignity after Long Yeyue’s reminder.

Soon, Lan Muzi saw Yue Zhengyu by Tang Wulin’s side who was staring in bewilderment with his mouth agape.

“Junior brother disciple Zhengyu, it’s been too long.”

Yue Zhengyu was already stuttering by now. “Senior...senior brother disciple Lan. You...you’re still alive. You...”
