Chapter 117: The "Remnants" of Ten Thousand Years Ago
At the east gate of Shrek Academy, as usual, there are still many vendors selling things here, but the young man selling grilled fish rarely appears again.
In the distance, an old man and a young man were walking towards this side. The old man had short gray hair, and although there were many wrinkles on his face, he did not look old at all when he walked. He was tall and his gray-blue eyes were very bright.
And that "young man" was Pan Yang, whom Wang Nan had met once.
The main gate of Shrek Academy was not guarded, only a middle-aged man was sitting near the gate. Of course, Shrek did not need guards, although there were many people who came to visit, but no one would easily enter here.
The old man and the young man were no exception. After approaching from a distance, they stopped and looked up at the gate of Shrek.
At first the gatekeeper thought that the two men were just visitors as usual, but after a while he realized that they were not just visitors.
"Hello, what can I do for you in Shrek?"
"Oh, we came here to look for someone." The old man came to his senses and looked at the gatekeeper.
"Looking for someone, a teacher or a student? What's the name of the person you're looking for?"
"The student we are looking for is probably named Wang Nan."
Although Wang Nan did not tell Pan Yang his name at first, with the end of the Fighting Spirit Competition, the names of Shrek and his group were no longer a secret.
The gatekeeper looked at the old man suspiciously, "What do you mean by should? Who are you to him?"
Pan Yang behind the old man was about to explode, but the old man held him down.
"Just tell him that you made an appointment with him and come to Panyang to find him."
The gatekeeper looked at the old man worriedly again, and when he saw the old man showing a kind smile, he nodded slightly, took a few steps back, and when he was far away, he took out a voice-transmitting soul guide from his arms.
This made Pan Yang, who was standing by, look at him with awe. He didn't expect that a gatekeeper at Shrek Academy was a soul master who could use soul guides.
After a moment, the gatekeeper finally felt relieved and said, "Okay, follow me in first."
Having said that, the gatekeeper turned and walked into the academy, and the old man and Pan Yang followed.
After walking about two hundred meters forward, several tall statues appeared in front of us.
"Okay, just wait here for a while. The person you are looking for will come out soon. Behind this is the outer courtyard area of Shrek. You can't go in anymore."
The old man nodded and watched the gatekeeper return to the entrance of Shrek Academy before he looked up at the statues.
On the other side, Wang Nan had just walked out of the dormitory and was about to go to Poseidon Pavilion to meditate and practice as usual, but he didn't expect a teacher to come to him and say that someone was looking for him at the gate of the college.
After some confirmation, Wang Nan realized that it must be Pan Yang who brought her grandfather to see him that day.
When Wang Nan arrived at the outer courtyard, he happened to see the old man looking up at several statues.
Those statues were the golden triangle and the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils who founded Shrek Academy ten thousand years ago. Wang Nan saw them many times when he entered and left the academy. But the old man's eyes were a little different, looking quite complicated, and even a little absent-minded.
"Grandpa, he's here."
It was Pan Yang who saw Wang Nan first and reached out to pull the old man's sleeve.
Upon hearing this, the old man looked towards Wang Nan, and there seemed to be light flowing in his gray-blue eyes. The Tianye Fusheng Dragon in Wang Nan's spiritual sea seemed to have sensed something and moved slightly.
"Nice to meet you, friend Wang Nan."
"Hello." Wang Nan replied politely, glanced at Pan Yang beside him, and then returned his gaze to the old man, "I heard that you have been looking for me?"
"Yes." The old man nodded, "Please let me introduce myself. My name is Pan Huai, also known as Qiangu Huaiwu."
After Pan Huai finished the introduction, he stared at Wang Nan's eyes. Seeing that he did not show much emotion, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Wang Nan saw the changes in Pan Huai's expression, but he didn't understand why Pan Huai had such a reaction. Should he have heard of this name?
"How about this, if you are willing, I will start from the beginning?"
Wang Nan nodded.
"Then let's start with our lineage's Panlong Staff martial spirit." Pan Huai said, his eyes once again falling on the statues in front of him, "Although the stories of Shrek Academy and the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils are well-known, you probably rarely heard about them when you were a child, right?"
Wang Nan had also been puzzled by this matter, but he had always thought that it was because he matured precociously that his parents would not tell these stories to children. Now it seems that there is another hidden story.
"Actually, to be honest, all of them can be considered our enemies." Pan Huai's eyes changed and he told a story that happened ten thousand years ago.
"Ten thousand years ago, there was an organization on Douluo Continent called the Spirit Hall. During the Spirit Hall's heyday, its influence once spread throughout the entire Douluo Continent, and the Pope's Hall also once became a holy place in the hearts of all spirit masters on the entire continent."
Wang Nan listened to Pan Huai's words and nodded.
Even though he had not had a deep understanding of it in his previous life, he had still heard of some of these terms. In addition, there were records of them in the history of Shrek Academy.
"And above the Pope's Palace, there is also a Hall of Worship. Only those who have reached the Titled Douluo level can enter there. Among them is our ancestor."
Pan Huai lowered his head, his eyes dimmed, "Later, the Spirit Hall was destroyed, and our opponent at that time was the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils. The two ancestors also retired and no longer cared about worldly affairs."
"Later, the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils achieved godhood. After the two ancestors passed away, their descendants could only change their surnames and hide their identities. Only the direct descendants of the two ancestors changed their surnames to 'Pan' and 'Long', the surnames in the Panlong Stick martial spirit, and passed down the stories of their ancestors orally."
"The Panlong Stick Martial Soul of the two ancestors contains a Heaven Awakening Holy Golden Dragon. Similarly, only the Panlong Stick that has awakened the dragon soul is the real Panlong Stick Martial Soul."
Combined with the impression from his previous life, Wang Nan did not think that Pan Huai in front of him was lying. Perhaps in this life, he really had the blood of those two Titled Douluo in him, and he might also have a name like Qiangu Nanli.
But what's the use of saying these things to him?
From the name Pan Huai, no, Qiangu Huaiwu, Wang Nan could understand a lot of things, but to him, Spirit Hall was just a name, and he had never had the same feelings for the Spirit Hall as he had for Pan Huai.
