Her?
Kong Mingan unconsciously remembered the last time Zhang Lexuan had leaned on him a few months ago.
Oh, your clan sister has been quite a popular figure at Shrek these past few months. Miss Meng bit down hard on those last few words, her tone sounding a bit amused. She continued by saying she heard that as soon as the Shrek team returned, they were surrounded by a group of students. These students were questioning why the team lost and why they failed to protect the honor of Shrek.
Several team members could not hold back and immediately talked back to the crowd. The two sides started cursing at each other, and then a girl with an Evil Fire Phoenix spirit directly started fighting. She injured more than ten people all at once. Afterward, the dean of the Spirit Department stepped in and stopped the trouble.
But within a month after that, four of the Shrek Seven Devils applied for early graduation. Two of them returned to their own sects and families, and the other two were recruited by the Star Luo Empire. This situation was seen as desertion by the other Shrek students, who were all very angry. Then, their anger naturally shifted to the three students who remained.
Kong Mingan roughly guessed who the remaining three students were. He was a bit curious and asked what happened next.
Miss Meng explained that Shrek's way of handling the situation was to hide the news since it was not something to be proud of. However, his clan sister did not stay idle. She continued her usual practice of directly dealing with corrupt issues within Shrek, even though she did not have official power.
While she was investigating, she found out about several elders putting a bounty on him. His clan sister then took the evidence and confronted those elders. To avoid the matter getting worse and rumors spreading that Shrek could not handle a loss, the bounty was taken down.
Is that so?Â
Kong Mingan's expression showed a hint of regret. He was still sorry that the bounty was gone because he wanted the materials, but he was not going to go out and put a bounty on himself. During their casual chat, Kong Mingan had already finished his meal. He slowly stood up and looked at Meng Hongchen beside him.
Let's go, Miss Meng. I remember that the next task is checking your control over the Soul Skill Module, right?Â
The materials were used up for now, so there was no need to stay in the lab. Although he enjoyed his experiments and the feeling of getting results, he knew he could not stay inside forever. He needed to go out and relax sometimes. While Kong Mingan was checking the Soul Skill Module and walking around the academy, two figures suddenly appeared outside Capital City.
As the capital of the Sun Moon Empire, the city had the best soul tool technology on the continent, so it did not have city walls. Looking at Capital City from far away, one could see buildings stretching as far as the eye could see.
The buildings were spaced out well, and the roads were straight. If a person focused, they could feel many special soul tool arrays connected to each other. These arrays covered the entire city and gave off huge spirit power fluctuations.
Interesting.
The silver-haired girl used her vast mental force to silently observe the city. A hint of interest flashed in her clear purple eyes. Even though she did not want to admit it, humans always managed to surprise her. From the Star Dou Great Forest to this place, the closer she got to the city, the more changes she saw.
It made her feel a strange sense of astonishment. In just a few of her long sleeps, tens of thousands of years had passed. Humans had developed so much that they had even produced several gods. Now, it seemed a new god might be about to be born.
Humans.
The girl whispered softly with a look of contemplation in her eyes. Suddenly, a golden figure flashed in front of her. The golden-haired girl looked very excited and asked if this was their destination. she said it was very big and felt different from other cities.
The golden-haired girl sounded very lively and full of energy. The silver-haired girl stayed silent for a moment as she looked at her. The two of them looked somewhat alike. In the end, the silver-haired girl could not get angry. She paused and asked if the golden-haired girl could still sense the aura of the Child of Destiny.
The golden-haired girl nodded and sensed the air for a moment. She looked toward the huge city and pointed in a specific direction, saying he was roughly over there.
The silver-haired girl understood how it worked. The luck of a Child of Destiny was usually given by the world at their birth. Although the luck of the Emperor Auspicious Beast had been taken away, her natural talent allowed her to observe her own luck.
Therefore, even if that luck was no longer inside her, she could still feel where it was located. This was how they had traveled all the way from the Star Dou Great Forest to the capital of the Sun Moon Empire.
The silver-haired girl moved forward, and silver light appeared in her purple eyes. She felt that this new Child of Destiny would be a very important key for the future. In that future, the spirit beasts would also have a part. She had to be involved; otherwise, the spirit beasts might lose their chance entirely.
Prepare yourself, Qiu'er.
The golden-haired girl blinked her clear eyes and looked confused.
Prepare for admission.
The silver-haired girl spoke softly as her body was covered in silver light. Her appearance began to change. Her silver hair and purple eyes faded into a common black color. her body became more symmetrical, and her face changed. She no longer looked incredibly beautiful but instead looked very delicate and ordinary. Her cold personality was still there, but she did not stand out as much as before.
The girl's black eyes were calm. Her original plan was to find the Child of Destiny, find out why he was so important, and then use him to help the spirit beasts rise. She wanted to take every bit of value from him to give her people a chance. It seemed like a good plan.
However, after sensing a god-level aura on him from a distance, she decided not to try and capture him right away. She could not let her true identity be known. If she was found out, the God Realm would surely attack her. She needed a disguise and a normal identity to get close to him. Before she could do anything else, she needed to enroll in the school.
