Chapter 38 - Chapter 37: Bei Bei: Elder Mu, are you willing to gamble?

Bei Bei stood alone infront of a huge white and gold wall, one that surrounded the current most prosperous city in Douluo Continent, acting as the headquarters of the most popular and best Academy in the World, Shrek City of Shrek.

He effortlessly walked past the guards at the gate, them not even noticing him as he was far stronger and had aura supressing abilities, making him near invisible to other's perception, not even including his strongest power, speed.

Walking past the arrogant guards who were looking down on those entering the city, he was reminded of Shrek, filled with arrogant and self righteous, rigid people like Yan Shaoze and Xuan Zi, arrogant students who think they're everything and look down on others like Ma Xiaotao.

Yet also some like his great grandfather Mu En, who was wise and could change for the better, Elder Song Yunzhi who was calm and accepting and could understand the underlying issues and improve, Sister Zhang Lexuan who was talented, loyal and kind to all.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he, Bei Bei was also once such an arrogant and foolish person until he met Tang Ya and began changing and then eventually joined Yuhao's faction.

The current him was completely different, he was a 15 year old Titled Douluo, unprecedented in History, only surpassed by Huo Yuhao himself, an amiable young man who hoped to be stronger and helpful.

As he passed through the Shrek City gate and walked like a phantom, moving seemingly slowly but actually fast as he reached the Academy entrance within seconds of entering the city.

He easily bypassed the guard and entered the Academy, the guard not even noticing him despite being a Soul King as he directly appeared in the core area of Sea God Island.

"You're back." Mu En who was sitting facing the sky, his back towards Bei Bei said in a calm tone.

"I never expected you to grow so fast, did you know? My only hope for you was for you to grow up peacefully and happily while also having enough power to protect yourself." Mu En truthfully told his expectations, his voice calm yet having a sense of relief.

"But you? You're already a Titled Douluo at 15, I'm shocked." Mu En, who had sensed Bei Bei's aura due to himself being a Limit Douluo in essence, was shocked yet had a conjecture.

"....I followed The God of Fantasy." Bei Bei who was rarely silent for a while, said. "I learned a lot from him, realising my own heart. I also realised that the current Shrek is too corrupt to be called just an Academy, far from the Academy that was in my heart."

"...Such is the truth, I am too weak to change this now, back in my youth, Shrek was truly a normal academy, but, after my injury years ago, It began to move in an uncontrollable direction."

"I had hoped either Shaoze or Xuan Zi could fix it, yet I was dissapointed time and time again, on the day Xuan Zi caused the death of many inner court students, I was truly disillusioned when the Elders made Lexuan kneel to bring Xuan Zi back.."

"..I am truly a failure of an Elder and Teacher." Mu En's true thoughts spilled out as he turned around, looking at Bei Bei with cloudy eyes, he was the Sea God Pavillion Master yet he was also a human who had suffered countless losses.

"....If, If Shrek could truly become an Academy again but it would require a complete overhaul and maybe bathed in blood, are you willing to accept the consequences, Pavillion Master Mu En!" Bei Bei asked seriously, removing all familial ties, only asking this as the individual Bei Bei to Mu En.

"...Am I willing? Bei Bei, I, Mu En, finally see hope, you are already strong enough to go against me in my peak. Why would I not trust you?"

After all, the only reason Mu En was forced to indulge Xuan Zi was due to him having no powerful successors yet with Lexuan who had Limit Douluo potential being weak right now and Xuan Zi currently being the strongest after himself, he was forced to let things be.

"... Elder Mu...I have a plan, are you willing to accept it?" Bei Bei asked Mu En who nodded quite simply without even considering anything else, because he could feel it, his intuition told him that Bei Bei would destroy the current Shrek without hesitation if it kept going on like this.

Whether to reform the entire Shrek or let it be destroyed completely, Mu En chose the former.

In the Sea God Pavillion, the place located in the hollow of the huge tree in the middle of the Island,

The Elders meeting was commenced by Mu En, all the Elders of the Pavillion were currently seated, waiting for Mu En to appear and begin the meeting.

Mu En had suddenly commenced a meeting, informing all Elders to assemble, including Xuan Zi and that lateness will not be tolerated while also allowing Zhang Lexuan and Fan Yu, two of the younger generations to attend.

"Elder Mu!" They all stopd up as Mu En's wheelchair was pushed in by a young man who highly resembled Mu En in his youth yet was different, having purple hair and eyes.

"Who...?" Many Elders felt the same thought arise, doubt about the young man's identity but, what made them even more shocked was that this young man was a Titled Douluo, that's right, a Titled Douluo.

Looking at his features, he seemed about 20 years old, how terrifying was that?! A 20-something year old Titled Douluo and since Mu En allowed him to push the wheelchair, it meant he was someone Mu En trusted.

"...Bei Bei..?" Zhang Lexuan, a beautiful woman with long flowing black hair and sharp eyes, her aura that of a valiant woman, had her pupils shrink, she who was quite plainly speaking, obsessed with Bei Bei, recognised him easily.

"...Sister Lexuan, it's been a while." Bei Bei smiled and nodded, making almost all the Elders who being Titled Douluo heard Lexuan's muttering despite it being a whisper, shocked.

"Bei Bei?! As in Elder Mu's descendant Bei Bei?!" Xuan Zi was the most shocked as he looked at the young man, after all, that kid was someone he basically considered inferior to Elder Mu despite not showing it outwardly.

"What? You have a problem with that?" Bei Bei's smile instantly disappeared as he looked at Xuan Zi, his Soul Rings appeared behind him, six black and three red, each exuding immense pressure.

A configuration that was superior to Mu En's own, making everyone shocked and subconsciously close their mouths, because they could feel the immense pressure of the Soul Rings, verifying the authenticity of the 100,000 Year Soul Rings.

(Bei Bei who like everyone who got Yuhao's custom Soul Rings, can modify the appearance of the rings: All 9 are 100,000 Year level, this is for your sanity that I downgraded the appearance.)

"..How..?" Yan Shaoze, being one of the reckless and arrogant one, asked subconsciously, not bothering to care if this included some secret.

"Shaoze! Xuan Zi!" Mu En's voice rang out like thunder, snapping all Elders back to their senses, "Our Apologise Elder Mu!" The two who were called apologized, they also realised this may be prying into secrets.

But, for their Shrek, they were willing to do anything! And Bei Bei's original Ring configuration was Two yellow and a purple! He'd improved the Soul Ring's age! How great would it be if they could also do that!

"Now...Let us commence the Pavillion Meeting."
