Chapter 1

"I never thought I would be able to travel to the Douluo Continent."

"Six years have passed, I wonder which part of Douluo has reached."

Xiao Yi looked at the dilapidated sign on the wooden arch at the village entrance, feeling a bit melancholy.

Surviving alone on Douluo for six years, he finally came to Shrek.

When Xiao Yi first arrived, he was homeless and helpless, and it was the kind-hearted old village chief who led him to awaken his soul beast.

With his original qualities, there was no hope of being selected for Shrek.

After all, his soul beast was a peacock, with a先天 (innate) level of three.

But as a穿越者 (穿越者) (time traveler), he naturally had the legendary golden finger.

At the age of six, when he awakened his soul beast, a pleasant female voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Detected time traveler...]

[Binding the Multiverse System...]

At that moment, he was extremely happy, but when he was about to make a name for himself on the Douluo Continent, reaching level 100 and becoming a god, making the name "Xiao Yi" resound across the Douluo Continent, a sudden change occurred!

[Binding error, host is not the original host, forcibly unbinding...]

The feeling of being in heaven one moment and cast into the abyss the next was quite unbearable.

The system came and went as it pleased, treating him like nothing!

Subconsciously, he scolded the system in his mind: "I want to file a complaint!"

To his surprise, it actually worked. The Multiverse System seemed to have a developer, and he could file a complaint.

The forced unbinding instantly stopped.

The pleasant female voice negotiated with him "amicably" instead of forcibly unbinding the system.

But he was indeed not the original host.

In the end, the system left him with two things as compensation.

One was a trial version of the Multiverse series mini-program, which could increase the soul ring years daily after he hunted soul rings, or he could choose to store the increase in years.

The other was a light orb that could cause his soul beast to mutate.

With the help of the light orb's strange power, Xiao Yi's soul beast mutated into a Nine-Heaven Phoenix, and his innate soul power increased to level ten.

Of course, a mutated soul beast definitely had a flaw, similar to Ma Hongjun's situation in Douluo.

There was evil fire!

After learning this, Xiao Yi's face was full of bitterness, but he had no choice.

Fortunately, his evil fire was different from Ma Hongjun's and could be barely controlled by his reason.

Looking at the long queue in front of him, Xiao Yi thought to himself, "I'll just mix with San for now. I'll deal with the evil fire using immortal herbs later. This thing brings too much trouble."

Just as he thought he would have to wait a long time before it was his turn,

A sudden commotion occurred in the front of the queue.

Immediately, an overwhelmingly powerful aura spread out.

Xiao Yi frowned, using his soul power to cover his body and block the impact.

"A soul power fluctuation above the Soul King level!" Based on his six years of experience, he made a rough judgment.

Xiao Yi strained his eyes to look far ahead.

At the end of the queue, an old man stood holding a long staff covered in intricate patterns.

A dense red light radiated from the old man, and six soul rings rose from his feet, their brilliant light drawing the attention of everyone present.

One white! One yellow! Three purples! One black!

They were a ten-year soul ring, a hundred-year soul ring, three thousand-year soul rings, and a ten-thousand-year soul ring!

It was a Soul Emperor above level sixty!

"I underestimated it a bit." Xiao Yi dissipated his soul power and stared at the old man, "A Soul Emperor, there are only a few in the Barak Kingdom."

Overall, Shrek's educational standards were quite good on the Douluo Continent, and compared to the Soul Temple, the Upper Three Sects, and other major academies, it was more accessible.

Currently, the best academy he could choose was Shrek. The path to the Soul Temple was cut off when he awakened his peacock soul beast with only a level three innate soul power.

The old man in front lowered his staff, and a low,闷闷的 (muffled) sound spread out, causing almost everyone to stagger.

"Shrek Academy only accepts monsters, not ordinary people. Those over thirteen years old or whose soul power has not reached level twenty-one can leave!"

Faced with the overwhelming aura of a Soul Emperor, everyone was as silent as cicadas in winter.

Gradually, most parents led their children away, disappointed.

The number of people in front of Xiao Yi suddenly decreased by half, and the long queue became short, easily visible from end to end.

"No need to wait in a long queue anymore, that's great."

Xiao Yi happily moved forward.

Some people who felt they had no hope left, and he continued to move forward leisurely.

Xiao Yi was very confident in his own strength.

At twelve years old, he was a level thirty-two Soul Respected with three purple soul rings!

At this age and with this strength, what else could he be but a monster?

He perfectly met Shrek's standards!

His soul beast mutating into a Nine-Heaven Phoenix, with a level ten innate soul power, made his cultivation speed like a rocket.

With the ability to increase the soul ring years, and the powerful soul power feedback from the soul rings, he had experienced two level skips, greatly saving cultivation time!

The third soul ring did not increase in years, considering his body's ability to bear it, he planned to be cautious and wait until he reached Soul Master.

Three purple soul rings were enough.

He could store the daily increase in soul ring years, and over six years, this number had reached a terrifying 34,872 years!

The Multiverse series mini-program could increase one soul ring by 16 years daily. The number 16 was derived from the core program using binary operations, taking the fourth root of 2.

The number 34,872 was after subtracting the years already added to the first and second soul rings.

Hunting soul rings alone, to ensure his safety, the first two soul rings he hunted were ten-year soul beasts.

The change from white to purple was added later.

Xiao Yi crossed his arms and moved forward another step leisurely.

This time, the people in front of him were a boy and a girl, both very young or rather, immature.

Because girls develop earlier, the girl in pink in front was slightly taller than the boy in blue behind her.

"San, this academy is quite interesting, especially that teacher who said they only accept monsters," the girl in pink said, turning back.

At this moment, Xiao Yi clearly saw the girl's appearance.

Her smooth long hair was neatly braided into a scorpion braid, hanging down to her calves. The pink clothes tightly wrapped her developing body.

Her slender waist was so slim that Xiao Yi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

But it was just a moment, and the next second, his eyes returned to clarity.

A glance is a man's nature, and looking away is a man's rationality.

But the girl in pink saw all of Xiao Yi's actions and thought he was a lecherous person, and that looking away was a form of peeping!

Behind the girl, the boy in blue, seeing her staring back, couldn't help but turn his head.

For a moment,

Xiao Yi's eyes met the boy in blue's.

Both were stunned for a moment.

In Xiao Yi's eyes, the boy was of medium height, about 1.7 meters, dressed in a tight outfit, with a special belt around his waist. His face was ordinary but pleasant, with a faint smile always on his lips.

In the boy in blue's eyes, however, Xiao Yi was completely different. The surroundings were like a dark night, and the people around him were like fireflies emitting a faint light, but Xiao Yi was like a bright moon hanging high, illuminating the darkness with endless light.

Xiao Yi's appearance was outstanding, with fair skin and a clear, handsome face. His aura was mixed, uniquely ethereal yet gentle and warm.

But compared to these, the boy in blue was more concerned with his strength. The feeling of the bright moon's light came from the soul power that was subtly surging within him!

The boy in blue's evaluation of Xiao Yi was only two words.

"Very strong!"

Given Xiao Yi's strength, the boy in blue smiled at him friendly and then turned back to ask the girl in pink, "Xiao Wu, what's wrong?"

Xiao Wu pouted and huffed, "Nothing, just another lecher."

Xiao Yi smiled helplessly at this but didn't take it to heart. He wouldn't be so petty with a girl.

He was just surprised that the people in front of him were Xiao Wu and Tang San!

The girl in pink was Xiao Wu, so the boy in blue must be Tang San.

Xiao Yi couldn't help but look at Tang San a few more times, thinking, "I'm actually standing behind Tang San."

At this moment, Tang San turned his head again, with an apologetic look, "Sorry, my sister might have misunderstood."

Xiao Yi didn't feel like the kind of person who would be lecherous.

"No problem." Xiao Yi didn't take it seriously. If this person was Tang San, he would need Tang San's help to get the immortal herbs to resolve his evil fire.

Seeing how easy-going Xiao Yi was, Tang San wanted to chat a bit more, as Xiao Yi gave him a good impression and with such strong power, they might be classmates in the future.

"Hello, I'm Tang San."

Xiao Yi nodded, "Xiao Yi."

Tang San didn't notice Xiao Wu's growing anger and continued, "Xiao Yi, are you a Battle Soul Master? You seem stronger than a Battle Soul Master I met earlier with a White Tiger soul beast."

"White Tiger soul beast, is it Dai Mou Bai?"

Xiao Yi thought, but at this time, Dai Mou Bai was a level thirty-seven Battle Soul Master, if he remembered correctly.

Although he was a level thirty-two Battle Soul Master with three purple soul rings, he didn't want to clash with Dai Mou Bai, as there was no benefit.

"I am a Battle Soul Master, but I'm not that strong," Xiao Yi said. The "not strong" he referred to was in comparison to the Soul Emperor old man in front, who was indeed much stronger.

But sometimes, excessive modesty is a form of showing off.

Tang San found it hard to respond to Xiao Yi's words and could only smile kindly.
