Yuanen Yehui didn't refute and said, "It's all thanks to this hundred-thousand-year soul ring, which directly pushed my strength up another level!"
After the events in the far northern lands, her attitude towards Yue Zhengyu had changed quite a bit, at least starting to treat him as a friend!
After all, being able to stick by someone in such a dangerous situation isn't something an ordinary Soul Master can do!
Yue Zhengyu didn't hide the jealousy in his eyes, "I'm a bit envious, you know. What if I had absorbed that hundred-thousand-year soul ring at the time?"
Yuanen Yehui gave a decisive answer without any hesitation, "Your body would have exploded!"
It's known that her fifth soul ring was offered by a hundred-thousand-year soul beast's sacrifice, greatly boosting her physical attributes in all regards!
But even so, the process of absorbing the hundred-thousand-year soul ring was a near-death experience, full of agonizing pain!
As for Yue Zhengyu, he probably wouldn't have been able to endure that energy!
Yue Zhengyu's mouth twitched as he said wistfully, "Do you have to be so absolute? Even though I know my strength can't yet absorb a hundred-thousand-year soul ring."
But if I break through to Soul Sage, there's a chance I could succeed!
Yuanen Yehui smiled, "It's just the truth, Yue Zhengyu, do you want to spar with me?"
At these words, Yue Zhengyu hurriedly retreated a few steps, "No... no need, the difference in our strengths is like heaven and earth right now, fighting you is asking for a beating!"
Yuanen Yehui shrugged without insisting, "Alright, then I'll head to the Outer Court and take a look first!"
This made Yue Zhengyu look incredulous, "Are you really Yuanen Yehui? Shouldn't you be focusing on cultivation in the Inner Court at a time like this?"
Yuanen Yehui glanced at him, "I would like to, but today is the day the Yuanen Clan moves to Shrek Academy; as one of the clan, I naturally have to be there!"
Yue Zhengyu's eyes lit up, "Then let's go, I'll join you."
He was quite curious how Yuanen Yehui's clan compared to his own Holy Angel Clan!
...
In Shrek Outer Court, a large number of unfamiliar figures had gathered in the square...
Evidently, they were all members of the Yuanen Clan!
At the forefront, Yuan En Zhentian said solemnly, "Everyone, this is Shrek Academy, known as the number one academy on the Continent, and it is where we will live from now on!"
"While staying here, I hope you do not proactively get into conflicts with the students of Shrek Academy and affect our relationships."
All the Yuanen clan members replied in unison, "Yes, Clan Leader!"
Beside him, Yuan En Tiandang looked at these clan members and lamented, "Father, I didn't expect half of our clan wouldn't be willing to join us in Shrek Academy!"
"Perhaps your decision was a bit hasty!"
Yuan En Zhentian, hearing this, just responded with a complex tone, "The Yuanen Clan's members aren't unwilling; they just don't want to make such a big move just for Yehui alone!"
Yuan En Tiandang remained silent and could only sigh...
But during their conversation, quite a few students from Shrek Outer Court had already noticed and exclaimed, "Wow... Why are there so many people coming to our Shrek Academy again?"
"They shouldn't be Tang Sect disciples, right? I remember they had already returned to the Tang Sect."
"They seem to be members of some clan, probably wanting to join our Shrek Academy?"
"No way! It was hard enough to see the Tang Sect disciples leave, and now another clan's people have arrived!"
Tang Wulin and others, out of curiosity, also gathered around to watch...
Xu Xiaoyan blinked her beautiful eyes, "It seems like the students aren't too welcoming of other clans joining Shrek Academy!"
Xie Xie clicked his tongue, "Of course, if a clan joins, the quality of life in all aspects will drop, just like when the Tang Sect disciples were here not long ago."
...
Afterwards, Tang Wulin and Mu Chen went to a hotel...
As they entered, they saw Mu Xi wearing a server's uniform...
She exclaimed in surprise, "Little Wulin?"
Tang Wulin was stunned, "Sister Mu Xi, why... why are you here? And you're dressed as a server."
Mu Xi playfully blinked her beautiful eyes, "Of course, it's to take advantage of the end of the term and do some part-time work here!"
Then she sneaked a glance at Mu Chen beside her...
Tang Wulin was shocked, "This..."
Knowing that Teacher Mu Chen is an Eighth Grade Blacksmith, crafting a single item to sell would fetch a sky-high price!
As his daughter, Sister Mu Xi shouldn't have to resort to a part-time job, right?
Seeing Tang Wulin's puzzled look, Mu Chen said somewhat grumpily, "It's because this little girl has a crush on a male classmate, and he works here."
The key is that the male classmate's abilities are average with no special talents!
He is very against it! Of course, it's more about the heartache of his precious daughter being taken away!
Tang Wulin suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
So Sister Mu Xi is working as a server here for the sake of the boy she likes!
Mu Xi, seeing her purpose exposed in public, gritted her teeth, "Dad, what are you saying! I just... just want to be independent, that's right, independent!"
Mu Chen, hearing this, said leisurely, "Independent? Alright then, starting today, your allowance will be cut off!"
"Anyway, you've found a part-time job and can make your own money now!"
Mu Xi panicked immediately and clung to Mu Chen's arm, whining, "Dad, I was just kidding..."
Given her usual expenses, the money from this job is just a drop in the bucket!
Mu Chen gave her a sideways look, "Alright, since you're employed as a server, fulfill your duties!"
Mu Xi immediately let go, and earnestly took out the menu, "Alright, dear customers, what would you like to eat? I recommend..."
...
Elsewhere, waiting, Xie Xie complained, "Why is it taking so long? Why isn't Wulin here yet?"
Ye Xinglan calmly said, "It's normal to chat longer when finally meeting with teachers!"
Xu Lizhi agreed, "Yeah! Let's wait a bit longer, if Wulin isn't coming, he should inform us!"
Xu Xiaoyan pouted, "Then how long will that be? I think... we should first go check out the auction!"
Xie Xie blinked, "What? Xiao Yan, are you rich? Things at auctions are insanely expensive!"
Xu Xiaoyan fell silent, muttering, "Not much, but I do have some."
After all, her family can only be considered a second-rate clan, definitely not as wealthy as the Holy Angel Clan!
But compared to ordinary families, it can be considered somewhat affluent!
