Chapter 4 Shrek City
"You can eat so much?" Shen Yue was a little stunned.

Gu You in front of me was eating heartily. Although the food was not delicacies from land and sea, there was plenty of steamed buns and noodles.

But the scene was indeed awkward, Xinya just looked at him as if he was watching a food show.

Gu You was actually puzzled. He didn't need a lot of energy like Tang Wulin, but why couldn't he feel full after eating so much? Could it be that people with dragon spirits are born to eat a lot?
"By the way, I have already reported Yuetian's child. He can enroll directly when he comes back." Xinya looked at Shen Yue. For some talented but poor children, the Sun-Moon Federation has corresponding policies. For ordinary families, three years of compulsory education in junior college is free, but they have to pay fees for secondary college. If they are talented, the government will also pay for it. For some poor families, both junior and secondary colleges are free, but it is very difficult to get a place for poor students.

"Thank you." Shen Yue nodded lightly.

……

Two days later, a soul-guided car was traveling quickly on the Tianhai Expressway. Xinya was driving the car with one hand, while not forgetting to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the west coast outside.

Gu You also opened the car window and looked at the endless sea. He felt a lot of emotion in his heart. The Star Forest was about to disappear. How long would it take for this vast sea to disappear?
Xinya also noticed that Guyou was in deep thought, looking back from time to time.

"I know I'm handsome." Gu You stroked his hair.

"Hey, you're still pretending, you know? Sometimes I really feel that you are not like your peers, at least not six years old." Xinya said calmly.

"It's not good to mature early!" Gu You was speechless. After being tricked by Xinya, the sadness he had felt when leaving his teacher's grandmother, as well as the melancholy he had just felt when looking at the sea, were slowly swept away.

……

Shrek City.

There are not many skyscrapers as you might imagine, but instead there are relatively retro buildings and ancient style. However, this is a historical city as famous as Tiandou City, so some of the ancient buildings are also relatively normal.

The addition of many high-tech soul guide technologies in later generations also made these ancient buildings appear unique. For example, a medieval house in the distance was surrounded by faint yellow light particles. That was a soul guide shield that accumulated soul power through solar energy and was enough to block fixed-installed soul guide cannons below level five. This was also the charm of Shrek City, a full sense of security.

Gu You gazed into the distance and saw a towering building reaching into the sky. That was the headquarters of the Eighteen Celestial Pillars Spirit Tower, called the "Tianling Tower!" It had eighty-one floors and was nearly three thousand meters high.

At the same time, this is also Gu Youxinya’s first destination. He will first choose a soul that suits him, become a soul master, and then go to Shrek Academy.

"The government has already told the Spirit Pagoda that your first six soul rings are all free and you can choose any of them. Also, your talent has been noticed by a elder in Shrek. Even without the recommendation of the senator, your admission to Shrek is a foregone conclusion." Xinya said enviously.

Gu You could only smile. Having good talent is a good thing, but attacking others is indeed a bad thing. However, the Federation must have paid some price, otherwise the first six rings would be free, and they could be chosen at will.

Inside the Tianling Pagoda headquarters, Leng Yaozhu looked at the report in her hand and frowned. The federal government actually offered such a great condition for a child.

The innate full soul power, the martial soul that has not been seen for ten thousand years, is quite interesting. Although he is not loyal to the Spirit Pagoda, it is not too much to accept a disciple, right? From her own name, the Federation will not mind anything. Thinking of this, Leng Yaozhu smiled. She did not believe that she, a dignified Tianfeng Douluo, one of the powerful people who shook the continent, would be rejected if she wanted to accept a disciple.

Thinking of this, Leng Yaozhu nodded with satisfaction, and then whispered, "Yali!"

"Yes, Deputy Tower Master." Long Yali pushed open the door of Leng Yaozhu's office and walked in. "I have something to arrange for you..."

At noon, after dawdling on the roadside for who knows how long, Xinya and Guyou finally arrived at the Spirit Transmission Tower.

As he approached and looked at this magnificent building, Gu You felt that it was a work of art. The entire building was octagonal in shape, with three floors, four sides, and eight angles. Every nine floors, it would shrink inwards until it reached the top spire.

Walking into the interior, the space is very vast and magnificent all around. The ground is paved with dark golden stone with gorgeous natural textures. Huge stone pillars support the dome that is several 50 meters high.

There were two statues parked in the very center, and Gu You could tell at a glance that they were the once-mighty Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao and his wife Dragon Butterfly Douluo Tang Wutong. The surrounding walls were constantly reflecting images of Huo Yuhao's seven spirit figures and some earth-shattering stories, but this was only a part of it. Each of the Eighteen Pillars recorded some stories, and only when combined together would it be more complete.

What does Gu You say about the character Huo Yuhao? He changed his surname to seek revenge at the beginning, and later took the initiative to change his surname to Dai. In the end, he became a loyal dog of the Tang family because of Tang Wutong.

There are many people visiting here and there, and the income of the Soul Transferring Tower just from the business of souls is enough to rival a country.

"Hello, how can I help you?" the front desk staff said with a smile.

Xinya took out a special black card and scanned the card slot next to it. Some information instantly appeared under the reflection of the soul guide.

"Choose the soul, thank you." Gu You widened his eyes.

"Are you Gu You?" the staff member's voice trembled a little.

"Yes." Gu You scratched his head, somewhat confused.

"Wait a moment, I got it!" The staff left quickly, leaving Gu You and Xin Ya with confused faces.

"Is that the service attitude? If it wasn't a girl, I would have scolded her a long time ago." Xinya frowned.

"Sister Yali, here they are! The child you mentioned is here." The girl who left found Long Yali and spoke excitedly.

"Understood, Huiqing. Be quiet next time. There are many high-level offices here." Long Yali touched Huiqing's head. She knew very well what materials these offices were made of. Even if Shrek City exploded, the sound of the explosion might not reach their ears. Her purpose was to make this girl who had just entered the workplace understand some subtle truths.

"I know... Sister Yali."

While waiting, Gu You was thinking about what he should choose as his first soul spirit. In an instant, the word Tyrannosaurus Rex popped up in his mind. It was a sub-species of dragon and mainly offensive, so it was the most suitable one. It mainly depended on whether there was one in the Soul Transferring Tower. He remembered that Tang Wulin's Tyrannosaurus Rex soul spirit was brought out from the Soul Ascension Platform.

"Hello, child." The sudden appearance of a voice caught Gu You off guard. Xin Ya, who was standing beside him, was stunned. All the people around looked at her. The girl did not look very old, only about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was wearing a light black dress and had an aristocratic demeanor. It was Long Yali.

Gu You was puzzled. If this kind of clothing was placed outside, it would be nothing. However, this was the Spirit Pagoda, where there was a strict classification of levels, just like spirit rings, with white being the lowest level and going up from there. Perhaps out of preference, Gu You discovered that people on Douluo Continent always liked to use colors to indicate their identities.
