The Legend of the Dragon King (Web Novel)
chapter-1587

The destructive power of the fixed soul ammunitions used in the battle the other day was overly powerful. Hence, there was nothing left.

Yuanen Zhentian spoke smilingly, “Do you still remember the mutual link formed between the nine Great Demons and us during the battle? They depended on the linking of their tails. After our violent attacks and the death of the nine Great Demons, their tails were left behind at the end. Our first ancestor had identified it as a form of divine weapon. Each tail allows the energy of two persons to be linked together as one. It’s suitable for your Shrek Seven Monsters. Our clan is keeping two of the tails while the other seven are gifts for you. The major part of the war trophy should belong to you since many of your precious fixed soul ammunitions were deployed.”

Tang Wulin had a delightful look in his eyes. “I’ll help myself then. This item here is very useful. I’ll take it with me and pass it to our Tang Sect to see if we can develop something from it.”

Yuanen Zhentian burst out laughing. “I have the same idea too. Well then, please take the two tails of ours as well. I’m afraid that even the Federal Academy of Science cannot compare to the Tang Sect when it comes to product innovation.”

Ever since the decision to move the clan to Shrek was made, Yuanen Zhentian had treated Tang Wulin kindly, especially after witnessing the miraculous situation. He felt that the Tang Sect’s Sect Master was no ordinary person.

Tang Wulin was not only powerful in his abilities. He had tremendous potential. More importantly, he had many secrets and was a person of mystery. The mysteries had even shocked a powerhouse like Yuanen Zhentian. If the person on that day had been a true god, what was its significance?

Mankind’s desire was unlimited. After becoming a quasi god, could it be that the person did not want to ascend to Godhood?

“We still need a few more days to pack. Tang Sect Master, please carry on if you have other affairs to attend to. Our clan will be slow moving since we’ll be travelling with our families. However, we should be able to complete the relocation in a month.”

“Sure.” Tang Wulin said, “I shall return first then. I’ll make living arrangements for you and your clansmen. We shall await your arrival.”

Yuanen Zhentian spoke with a smile, “We’ll rely on the Tang Sect Master then.”

After the demon legion was vanquished successfully, he was overjoyed for a few days. The gloomy mood that had haunted him was swept away.

Tang Wulin nodded smilingly. “Don’t mention it. I’ll be making some preparations upon my return. We shall solve the issue of the three-word battle armors later upon your arrival.”

Nothing was more urgent for Tang Wulin than to settle down upon returning to Shrek Academy. He would need to stabilize his realm after his new breakthrough to the Hyper Douluo cultivation base. Later, he would need to assist the academy in settling down.

It was less than three months to the commencement of the first semester for the newly-constructed Shrek Academy. Shrek needed to become more powerful. As a Divine Craftsman, he was certainly the most important person who could strengthen the ability of the entire Shrek Academy.

There were quite a number of mecha makers from the Tang Sect including those above rank-9. However, all the organizations were short of blacksmiths. In fact, there were only two Divine Craftsmen, namely Tang Wulin and Zhen Hua.

Zhen Hua rarely engaged in the Heavenly Refinement due to his poor health. On the other hand, Tang Wulin was in his prime. The injury from the elemental calamity during the Heavenly Refinement did not affect him.

He was still not confident in performing the Heavenly Refinement which involved multiple types of spirit alloys. Nonetheless, his success rate in the Heavenly Refinement of one or two types of metals was quite high. The Heavenly Refinement was good in elevating his cultivation base, and it doubled as a great cultivation method. Hence, he would need to forge with greater effort to help elevate the abilities of Shrek as well as Yuanen Yehui’s clan.

Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Yuanen Yehui took the lead and bought their soul train tickets while Er Ming stayed behind. He wished to spend a few more days in the ancestral house of the Titan Giant Ape’s clan to reminisce over the memories of his lover in the past.

After the great battle, Yuanen Zhentian made an official announcement of Er Ming’s identity and his contribution to the clan. Er Ming went from being the original elder to first ancestor.

He had helped in the ascent of one quasi god and one Limit Douluo in the clan. Naturally, it was enough to convince the clansmen . However, Er Ming mentioned that he would not be returning to Shrek. Since he had met his clansmen, he was going to return to the Ten Thousand Beast Platform. He would visit them at Shrek Academy when he had the time.

There was something which delighted Yuanen Zhentian. On the other hand, Yuanen Tiandang and Yuanen Tianshang were put into rather awkward positions. Er Ming had made a solemn proposal to find spouses for the two brothers so they could build up the clan.

Er Ming had managed to find his descendants. So, he hoped that they would develop naturally, especially for those with pure bloodlines and good natural endowments.

They boarded the soul train and traveled back to the Heaven Dou City. First, Tang Wulin handed the Great Demons’ tails to the Tang Sect’s research department. Later, he joined Yuanen Yehui and Xie Xie at Shrek Academy.

At present, the area surrounding the Sea God Lake was a huge construction area. The place was vast. In fact, even the Federation turned a blind eye toward Shrek’s reconstruction.

An important message made by Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect during the Spirit Pagoda’s Joust For A Spouse Festival to the outside public was: “Don’t mess with us. Please consider before you provoke us.”

Thus, Shrek was in a considerably peaceful state. However, the Federation still had not removed the declaration of the Tang Sect being a treasonous organization. It was apparent that the Spirit Pagoda had the upper hand in this matter.

The renovation for the three main academic buildings had been completed. The construction of the functional areas inside were continued for academic purposes.

Everyone was enthusiastic about rebuilding the academy. Additional outside support was provided to the academy. There were now two Limit Douluos with Shrek Academy! Which academy on the entire Douluo Continent had such inner secrets? Subsequently, who would refrain from sending their children to this academy in the future?

Indeed, Shrek Academy suffered from the great catastrophe. However, it was precisely because of it that more people were feeling confident of the academy.

It was a blast from two Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunitions! All the students had survived. Only the teachers died. How could anyone not respect such an academy?

An academy where the teachers were willing to sacrifice their lives to protect the students. What more should parents be concerned with?

The registration for the academy was in demand. There were over two thousand students who were qualified for admission to the academy awaiting their interviews.

The only not so favorable news for Shrek was the opposition’s opinion of Tang Wulin.

Firstly, it was an attack of his abilities. Tang Wulin was defeated by the Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena in the Joust For A Spouse Festival. When his identity as the Tang Sect’s Sect Master was revealed, it provided an opportunity for the Spirit Pagoda to exploit the disparity between the Tang Sect’s Sect Master and the Silver Dragon Princess. They also insinuated that there would be a huge disparity between the Spirit Pagoda’s ability and the abilities of the Tang Sect with Shrek Academy’s.

Also, Tang Wulin’s moral standing was questionable. They claimed that he was a conman who plotted against the Spirit Pagoda in the popular Joust For A Spouse Festival.

On the other hand, Shrek and the Tang Sect did not refute the accusations. They did not respond to the Spirit Pagoda’s meaningless instigation.

The high-ranking officers in the Spirit Pagoda continued with their policies. Only they would know whether they should target the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. In any case, the two great forces would undoubtedly collide with each other in the future.

The Federal parliament remained monopolized by the Hawk Faction. However, there were parties amongst the Hawk Faction which supported Shrek Academy. The Southern Army Corps was one of the parties.

The continent’s political situation was undergoing changes. Once again, Shrek Academy’s reconstruction became the focal point.

Undoubtedly, the extent of Shrek Academy’s recovery would decide the trend of the political scene.

Shrek openly expressed their wish to spread their influence to every corner of the continent.

The War God Hall had joined in to express their support to Shrek Academy.

In the Spirit Pagoda’s headquarters.

“You must pay attention to your body when you’re cultivating. Don’t be impatient.” Qiangu Dongfeng had a stern expression as he watched his grandson cultivate painstakingly on his soul skills. Sweat was trickling down Qiangu Zhangting’s face.

After the Joust For A Spouse Festival, Qiangu Zhangting soon recovered as he was not severely injured. He immediately threw himself into cultivating painstakingly upon his recovery.

Compared to the past, his cultivation at present could be described as ‘exerting his utmost strength’. He would only stop cultivating when he was exhausted.

“Grandfather, I’m fine. I’ll work hard so I can surpass that person for sure.” Qiangu Zhangting was panting.

Qiangu Dongfeng spoke with a deep voice, “There’s only the two of us here. I wish to ask you something. What do you think of Na’er?”

Qiangu Zhangting was stunned for a moment. “Na’er? What’s with her?”
