Douluo: I Achieve Supremacy with Life Blue Silver Grass

While Ye Yu was immersed in his cultivation, over a dozen days passed.

After finalizing matters regarding Shrek Academy, Flender, Yu Xiaogang, and Zhao Wuji—along with Dai Mubai, Tang San, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar—traveled day and night, finally arriving at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

As in the original storyline, since there were people within the academy aligned with their interests, news of Shrek Academy planning to merge into Heaven Dou Imperial Academy had already reached Prince Xue Xing.

The three Education Committee members of Heaven Dou were affiliated with Qian Renxue, and since Qin Ming was personally appointed by them, he was naturally on Qian Renxue's side as well.

If Shrek Academy successfully merged into Heaven Dou Imperial Academy under Qin Ming's recommendation and the Education Committee's endorsement, that would mean all of Shrek's members would effectively be under Qian Renxue's influence.

But Shrek's faculty included three Spirit Sages and two Spirit Douluo—no small power bloc.

Naturally, Prince Xue Xing was unwilling to see such strength bolstering Qian Renxue's camp.

As a result, Xue Beng had long been waiting at the academy gates. When he saw the Shrek party arrive, he deliberately provoked them into attacking, causing Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Ma Hongjun to make a move.

It wasn't until a teacher intervened that the farce was brought to an end—at least temporarily.

That teacher then brought the Shrek group into the academy to meet with Qin Ming, who arranged lodging for them and planned to formally introduce them to the Education Committee the next day.

As the sun set outside Heaven Dou City that evening, Ye Yu returned to the Dugu Estate after finishing his Thunder Tempering session.

Over the past several days, Dugu Bo had already returned after helping Ling Zhantian hunt down a suitable spirit beast in the Star Dou Great Forest for his ninth Spirit Ring.

That very night, a man clad in a luxurious yellow robe—floral embroidery across its surface, medium build with a slightly portly figure, and a head of well-groomed white hair—arrived at the Dugu residence.

"Your Highness, Prince!"

Dugu Bo was visibly surprised to see the visitor and quickly stepped forward to welcome Prince Xue Xing into the main hall.

Prince Xue Xing?

Ye Yu quickly realized—this must be the very man who had once saved his grandfather Dugu Bo from Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan's hand.

"Master Dugu, this must be the young Master Ye Yu?"

The prince's gaze sparkled as he stroked his snowy beard and smiled warmly.

"Young man, you're certainly impressive!"

"You flatter me, Your Highness."

Dugu Bo smiled proudly and introduced Ye Yu.

"Xiao Yu, this is Prince Xue Xing."

Ye Yu stood and nodded politely.

"Greetings, Your Highness."

His tone was respectful but not overly warm.

After all, while he was technically Dugu Bo's future grandson-in-law, he was also aligned with Qian Renxue, currently disguised as Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.

"Your Highness, may I ask what brings you here at such a late hour?"

Dugu Bo inquired curiously.

Prince Xue Xing gave a small cough and replied,

"Master Dugu, may I speak with you privately?"

The two excused themselves from the hall for a private conversation.

Though no words were exchanged in front of him, Ye Yu could already guess what Prince Xue Xing wanted.

And indeed, once the prince had left, Ye Yu didn't bother asking Dugu Bo about the matter.

To him, whether Shrek Academy joined the imperial school was irrelevant.

That said, he did rather hope Zhao Wuji would remain at Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

Zhao Wuji's Gravity Increase and Gravity Crush were extremely useful for physical training—far more effective than Yu Xiaogang's outdated "weighted training" routines.

Previously at Shrek Academy, at Ye Yu's request, Zhao Wuji had agreed to help train Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.

Ye Yu suspected that after he took the girls away, Zhao Wuji's time at Shrek likely didn't go smoothly.

And he was absolutely right.

Because Zhao Wuji had helped Ye Yu train the girls, it was seen as undermining Yu Xiaogang's authority.

That very day, Yu Xiaogang had already begun to simmer with resentment—but with Ye Yu still around, he had no choice but to endure it.

After Ye Yu left, however, he wasted no time plotting his revenge against Zhao Wuji.

In a head-on fight, Yu Xiaogang was no match for Zhao Wuji. But when it came to scheming? That was a different story.

Unfortunately for him, before he could put any plans into motion, he was "invited" for a special session by the Pervert Trio, courtesy of Ye Yu's arrangement.

After that experience, Yu Xiaogang was practically broken—mentally and physically—turning into a veritable cream puff.

In his traumatized state, Yu Xiaogang placed all the blame on Ye Yu.

If Ye Yu hadn't slapped his jaw out of alignment and knocked out his teeth, he wouldn't have gone to Soto City for dental work.

And he wouldn't have been kidnapped by the Pervert Trio.

Therefore, it was all Ye Yu's fault!

Unable to take revenge on Ye Yu directly, Yu Xiaogang focused his hatred on Zhao Wuji instead.

Back at the academy, he began stirring up trouble, insinuating that Shrek could've formed a proper team for the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament—if it weren't for Ye Yu.

And Zhao Wuji had the gall to help Ye Yu? Traitor!

At first, Flender, Li Yusong, Lu Qibin, and Shao Xin didn't think much of it. Zhao Wuji was just being his straightforward self.

But Yu Xiaogang kept whispering poison in their ears.

Eventually, even they started to think Zhao Wuji might be siding with Ye Yu.

If not for him, maybe Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing wouldn't have left.

Maybe Xiao Wu would've stayed too.

Maybe then, Shrek could've fielded a full team!

The shift in their attitudes made Zhao Wuji feel increasingly suffocated and wronged.

But what could he do? When someone like Lord Ye Yu asked you for help, could you really say no?

Would any of them have refused?

Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

That day, Ye Yu brought Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, and Ning Rongrong with him to the academy.

Not long after their arrival, Qin Ming hurried over.

"Ye Yu! Yan! Quick, come with me!"

"I need your help with something important!"
