On a beautiful divine mountain wreathed in the aura of life, a man in purple robes looked down upon the lower realm, a look of pleasant surprise in his eyes. "This child has actually even comprehended the laws of spacetime. Tang San, this time you've truly thrown away a watermelon to pick up a sesame seed. You would never have dreamed, would you, that besides the boy you're focused on, there's actually another Child of Fortune on the Douluo Continent."
Beside him, a beautiful woman in green attire asked with confusion, "But it's very strange. This child possesses such immense fortune; how could his youth have been so painful?"
"Because for the past thirteen years, the fortune on him was in a hidden state, which is why even that Tang San couldn't discover it," the purple-robed man said. "It was only when he obtained that scorpion's soul ring that it gradually began to unseal."
"Why would such a situation occur? A Child of Fortune whose luck is sealed... I've never heard of such a thing. Could he be like Tang San back then, an artificially created Child of Fortune?" the green-clad woman speculated. "Otherwise, why would his fortune be sealed?"
"Impossible. To artificially create a Child of Fortune, the original fortune must be transferred. For example, ten thousand years ago, old Asura transferred the fortune originally belonging to Spirit Hall to Tang San, causing Spirit Hall, which should have given birth to two gods and unified the continent, to completely collapse. If this child were also like that, the person Tang San has taken a fancy to would certainly lose his status as a Child of Fortune. But I can feel that the fortune on that Huo Yuhao has not been lost, and yet the fortune on this child genuinely comes from the Douluo Continent and is very ancient. It can't be that a previous Child of Fortune gave his own fortune to him and even helped seal it to prevent Tang San from discovering it, right? If there truly were such a figure, how could the God Realm be completely unaware?" the purple-robed man conjectured. "I'm more inclined to believe that after Tang San, the Douluo Continent re-accumulated an immense amount of fortune over ten thousand years, thus creating two Children of Fortune at once – one manifest, one latent. Now, that latent one has finally awakened. And because he has suffered greatly these thirteen years, that pent-up, immense fortune is about to erupt. I should give him a hand."
After speaking, a deep purple divine power surged from the purple-robed man downwards, covering Yuwen Tuo's entire body.
"This should do it. That child has a very good disposition; a mere painful childhood won't be enough to break him. Little Green, have you discussed it with that fellow? Does he agree?"
The woman called Little Green nodded. "Almost without hesitation. He even takes a liking to people with degenerate character. Upon learning of this child's existence, he was only joyful. The only problem is his wife."
"No matter. A Child of Fortune can drive the growth of those around him. Perhaps he can be with his wife," the purple-robed man waved his hand. "If I didn't have very important responsibilities to bear, if the God Realm couldn't lose me, and if I couldn't abandon my divine position before the expansion of the God Realm is complete, otherwise I wouldn't mind this child becoming my heir. However, this is also good. It's like cutting off one of Tang San's arms. Otherwise, that fellow would think that after the two God Kings of Goodness and Evil left, this God Realm truly became his one-man show."
"Little Purple, after our responsibilities are completed, will you accompany me to see the world everywhere? Just like old Asura, roaming the infinite universe," Little Green hugged Little Purple's neck from behind, rested on his shoulder, and asked expectantly.
Little Purple held Little Green's hand and said softly, "Alright!"
On the Douluo Continent, Yuwen Tuo was still practicing the Xuan-Yuan Sword Art with a tree branch.
The ultimate destructive sword qi of the Xuan-Yuan Sword, coupled with the Kunlun Mirror's power of spacetime, Yuwen Tuo felt he could comprehend this sword art to a new realm.
Suddenly, a purple light flashed on Yuwen Tuo's body, and he subconsciously stopped.
Looking towards the sky, he murmured softly, "Thank you!"
A flash of surprise crossed Little Purple's eyes. "That child just now, could he have been saying thank you to me? Can he sense my help? But how is that possible? No matter how profound his fortune is, he is currently just a mortal, and a relatively weak three-ringed one among mortals at that."
Of course, Yuwen Tuo couldn't sense it. He didn't even know who he was thanking.
But he had a vague feeling that someone had just helped him with something, and he subconsciously uttered the words "thank you."
He only hoped that the person who had secretly helped him could receive his gratitude.
Yuwen Tuo threw away the tree branch in his hand and returned to the Soul Dueling Arena. At this time, the mixed battle between the new students and the Shrek Seven Devils had already ended.
Unlike the original story, this time it wasn't that whichever team Huo Yuhao was on would win.
Instead, Dai Yueheng's team won two consecutive matches. The reason was simple: with Ma Xiaotao absent, he was the only Soul Emperor on the team, and a Soul Emperor is simply stronger than a Soul King.
Moreover, this time Huo Yuhao couldn't enhance Ling Luochen's Ultimate Ice. The reason he could purify Ling Luochen's ice in the original story was because of the Ice Empress.
Even among Ultimate Ice, there are differences in strength.
How could the Ice Empress's Ultimate Ice be comparable to an ordinary Ice Jade Scorpion? The current Huo Yuhao was lucky enough to even possess the power of Ultimate Ice himself; helping others purify it was simply impossible.
Fortunately, his auxiliary abilities were still demonstrated in this soul duel, which also allowed the senior students to quickly acknowledge this junior. Everyone gathered around him, constantly praising him.
But when they saw Yuwen Tuo approaching, they all tacitly moved away. Without fighting side by side, it was indeed impossible to cultivate bonds.
Only Ling Luochen came to Yuwen Tuo's side and patted his shoulder. "Little Tu, welcome back. Elder Xuan will be taking us somewhere later."
Yuwen Tuo nodded. "I know."
He guessed where Elder Xuanzi was taking them. Becoming an inner courtyard disciple, even one of the Shrek Seven Devils, was certainly the dream of all Shrek students.
But there were quite a few who, after entering the inner courtyard, regretted it and left because they couldn't bear the responsibilities of an inner courtyard disciple.
That is, the Shrek Surveillance Group, eliminating bullies, bandits, corrupt officials, etc., who endanger the continent. But these were just incidentals. The real, greatest opponents were, of course, Evil Soul Masters. This was essentially an organization that directly confronted Evil Soul Masters.
For Yuwen Tuo, this was indeed Shrek's only commendable aspect, and it was limited to those students who sacrificed their lives for this path.
Because their teachers had always been unreliable, starting from Flander's generation. The teachers leading the teams would always cause heavy losses to the students due to various mistakes.
Especially Elder Xuanzi; it wasn't unfounded to say he was the Great Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult.
The number of inner courtyard disciples who died or were crippled because of him in the original story was enough to form almost two Shrek Seven Devils teams.
The place Elder Xuanzi took everyone was precisely the Shrek Memorial Stele, on which were engraved the names of inner courtyard disciples who had died fighting against Evil Soul Masters.
Elder Xuanzi said, "The inner courtyard disciples of the academy are all surveillants, and they must complete thirty surveillance missions before the academy allows them to graduate. What our Shrek Academy aims to cultivate is not just strong individuals, but also great people willing to maintain peace on the continent."
"I must tell you that any matter requiring our Shrek Surveillance Group to handle is invariably tricky and life-threatening. There have even been experiences of facing Titled Douluos, 100,000-year soul beasts, and other powerful experts. Consider carefully whether you are willing to become a member of the Surveillance Group."
"We are willing!!!"
Except for Yuwen Tuo and Xiao Xiao, all the preparatory members of the Shrek Seven Devils chose to join.
Elder Xuanzi nodded with satisfaction and looked at the remaining Yuwen Tuo and Xiao Xiao. "And you two?"
"I refuse!"
"Elder Xuan, I... I'm a little scared. Can I think about it?"
The two refused with different attitudes.
