"Xiao Tao, do you want a husband or not?"
Inside a secluded courtyard on Sea God Island, a voice came from the doorway.
Following that, a white-bearded elder slowly walked in, leading a handsome young man.
"Teacher, I already said I don't want anything..." A fiery red figure walked out from the courtyard, her voice filled with exasperation and impatience.
However, when she saw the young man the elder was leading, she instantly froze.
"Ah, Teacher, where did you abduct this little brother from? He's so cute~"
Ma Xiaotao pounced, directly grabbing the young man from Yan Shaozhe's hand and holding him in her embrace, thoroughly doting on him.
"Alright, alright, Xiao Tao, don't scare your junior brother." Yan Shaozhe patted Ma Xiaotao's shoulder with a hint of exasperation, then explained, "His name is Ye Chen. He's my new disciple, possessing a pure Ice Dragon Martial Soul, and it's even an Extreme Ice Martial Soul."
Yan Shaozhe emphasized "Extreme Ice," clearly indicating that this was the key reason he took Ye Chen as a disciple.
As for the Ice Dragon King, Yan Shaozhe didn't recognize it, only knowing it was an Ice Dragon.
"What! Extreme Ice!"
Ma Xiaotao slowly released Ye Chen, her dark red eyes staring unblinkingly at him, as if she was looking at a great treasure.
No wonder she felt such a strong sense of familiarity the moment she saw him; just holding him, the Evil Fire within her body was actually suppressed slightly, making her feel inexplicably joyful.
Hmm, at first, her teacher's suggestion, she wasn't entirely unable to accept...
Updates are hard-earned, remember to share 101kanshu.com.
"Greetings, Senior Sister."
Ye Chen inhaled the fragrance at his nose tip and smiled brightly at Ma Xiaotao.
Big is good.
Good is big.
Great Thunder Sound Temple is good.
Ye Chen felt the same way.
"Hehehe~ Junior Brother is so well-behaved~"
Upon seeing this, Ma Xiaotao immediately covered her mouth, letting out a charming giggle like a silver bell. A flush of peach pink appeared on her pretty face, and her gaze towards Ye Chen held an indescribable fondness.
"Alright, Xiao Tao, you take Ye Chen to complete the enrollment procedures. From now on, he's your junior brother. It's only been a few days since the new semester started, so arrange a class for your junior brother, and he can also participate in the new student assessment."
Yan Shaozhe gave his instructions, then turned and left, clearly leaving everything to Ma Xiaotao.
It wasn't that Yan Shaozhe was too lazy; rather, Yan Shaozhe felt that this would accelerate Ye Chen's and Ma Xiaotao's relationship more quickly.
"Junior Brother, let's go. You should have just enrolled, I'll take you to complete the enrollment procedures first~"
Ma Xiaotao didn't know why, but she felt inexplicably joyful. She took Ye Chen's hand and pulled him towards the outside.
"Okay, Senior Sister."
Ye Chen felt the warmth in his hand and didn't refuse, accepting it readily.
...
Ye Chen was a transmigrator, having been in this world for twelve years.
He was born into a medical family, inheriting the Martial Soul "A Needle," referring to an acupuncture needle, with innate Soul Power at level 2 and Soul Power at level 12.
However, just yesterday, he awakened a Sign-in System, allowing him to sign in daily.
The Sign-in System's Newbie Gift Pack was the Extreme Ice Martial Soul—the Ice Dragon King, along with a luck attribute of +999 and charm of +999.
The Dragon has nine sons, each controlling one of the nine attributes: ice, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, space, time, and stability (Mountain Dragon King).
Ye Chen's Martial Soul was precisely one of the Dragon Sons, the "Ice Dragon King."
Moreover, due to the system's bestowal, Ye Chen's Martial Soul seemed to have merged with his bloodline, becoming even more powerful, approaching the Ice Dragon King's true form.
Ye Chen originally just wanted to gain some experience at Shrek Academy, but he didn't expect to encounter Yan Shaozhe wandering around halfway.
Perhaps due to his luck attribute, coupled with the power of his Martial Soul, he was immediately taken as a disciple on the spot and directly brought to Shrek...
...
...
"Oh, by the way, Junior Brother, what's your current cultivation level?" Ma Xiaotao asked curiously as she walked, holding Ye Chen's hand.
"Level 41," Ye Chen replied.
When his Ice Dragon King awakened, it came with four Soul Ring Soul Skills.
The first Soul Ring was 999 years, the second 5999 years, the third 9999 years, and the fourth 59999 years. The newbie gift pack also came with a large amount of Soul Power, directly pushing him to the Soul Emperor realm, a direct leap to the heavens.
After all, Ye Chen's ninety-nine-year-old great-grandfather was only a Level 41 Soul Emperor.
As for his first Martial Soul and the original Level 12, it's not worth mentioning...
"What! A Soul Emperor... How old are you?" Ma Xiaotao exclaimed upon hearing this, her steps pausing slightly.
"What, is that very impressive?"
Ye Chen feigned ignorance, looking up at Ma Xiaotao.
"Haha... it's quite impressive, but compared to your Senior Sister me back then, it's still a bit lacking." Ma Xiaotao chuckled, but inwardly, she was roaring wildly.
Good heavens! A twelve-year-old Soul Emperor! This is even more fierce than she was back then!
She only advanced to Soul Emperor at 13, directly breaking Shrek's historical record.
She didn't expect Ye Chen's talent to be even stronger than hers!
It's just a pity that due to the side effects of her Phoenix Evil Fire, she lacked stamina in the later stages, and even after advancing to Soul Emperor, cultivation became extremely difficult. If she wasn't careful, the Evil Fire would go out of control, which greatly troubled her...
But now that her master had found Ye Chen for her, it was truly a godsend!
Even just holding Ye Chen's slightly cool little hand, she could feel her Evil Fire being suppressed.
The irritation and depression in her heart were reduced by a trace. If she were to be with Ye Chen...
As soon as she thought of this, Ma Xiaotao became inexplicably excited, her steps lightened considerably, and her mind filled with wild fantasies, the images gradually turning yellow.
...
Perhaps it was intentional on Ma Xiaotao's part, or perhaps Ma Xiaotao truly got lost.
She led Ye Chen around for half an hour before finally bringing him to the academy's academic affairs office.
Although enrolment had already ended, Yan Shaozhe was the dean, so he naturally had some privileges.
Coupled with Ma Xiaotao coming in person.
Ye Chen's enrolment procedures were easily completed.
The person responsible for handling the procedures was a middle-aged man of about fifty, whom Ma Xiaotao called "Director Du."
Ye Chen thought back for a moment and realized that the other party should be Du Weilun, the director of the Martial Soul Department of the Outer Courtyard.
"Dean Yan is truly blessed to have such a talented disciple, and he even has an Extreme Ice Martial Soul..."
Du Weilun commented while processing Ye Chen's documents, his gaze towards Ye Chen filled with surprise.
Although Ye Chen's bone age exceeded twelve, with such talent, the academy could still make an exception for him.
Such a promising talent, unless Shrek's brains were hammered by the Body Sect, they would never refuse him entry.
Shrek was originally a monster academy!
Rules were made for ordinary disciples.
Monsters, naturally, could break the rules!
Although Shrek was called a "monster" academy, most of its students were actually noble children. True "monsters" wouldn't appear for years. Among this generation's Shrek Seven Devils, only Ma Xiaotao was a true "monster," but she was plagued by Evil Fire.
Du Weilun seemed to have thought of something, and he suddenly paused, looking at Ma Xiaotao and then at Ye Chen with some surprise.
Good heavens.
Yan Shaozhe had been looking for a Soul Master with an Extreme Ice Martial Soul precisely to help Ma Xiaotao.
And now he had found one...
Which meant that Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire problem would very likely be resolved!
In that case, wouldn't the academy have two more super powerhouses in the future?
As soon as he thought of this, Du Weilun's gaze towards Ye Chen became increasingly benevolent.
"Xiao Chen, there are 10 classes for new students. Which number do you think is auspicious? Just pick one."
Du Weilun handed a form to Ye Chen, speaking with a cheerful smile, his gaze towards Ye Chen filled with an indescribable kindness.
After all, with Ye Chen's Ultimate Martial Soul talent, achieving Titled Douluo in the future would be effortless, and there was a high probability of him becoming a Super Douluo or even a Limit Douluo!
He naturally had to maintain a good relationship.
