The mural above depicts a work by a Title Douluo from Shrek Academy who was skilled in painting, using ink mixed with a drop of blood from the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Di Tian.

Once painted, it emits a strong Black Dragon's pressure, which Shrek Academy uses to test the mental strength of candidates.
The first stage of the inner court assessment requires candidates to pass through the hall while their minds are subjected to the immense pressure from the Black Dragon's pressure.
One must know that mental pressure brings extreme pain, and taking steps under such pain is actually a very difficult task. Therefore, this stage not only tests the candidates' mental strength but also their willpower!
As soon as the many candidates flooded into the hall, their bodies swayed and they fell to the ground. Some struggled to get up, but some couldn't even crawl up. Some even chose to crawl forward for the sake of the assessment.
At this moment, Qian Mo's eyes gradually turned golden, a golden light faintly emanated from behind his head, and the ethereal figure of an angel with eight wings on its back flickered into existence. He let out a heavy snort.
"Hmph!"
His mental strength, which had already entered the intermediate stage of the Spirit Communication realm, vibrated with this cold snort, and the Black Dragon's pressure covering Qian Mo instantly vanished.
Qian Mo looked up at the mural. When his golden pupils met the flashing golden dragon eyes in the mural, the sword light of the Holy Cross Sword seemed to slash through the void.
The next moment, the golden dragon eyes actually dimmed a little, and the Black Dragon's pressure retreated three steps when facing Qian Mo, as if it had encountered a flood or a fierce beast.
Qian Mo's lips curved slightly. He thought, how dare a mere drop of Di Tian's blood try to suppress him? Did it really think that Michael had never cut down a dragon!
Gu Yuena, who was beside him, trembled a few times. After a flash of shock in her eyes, she gradually returned to normal.
There's no need to mention this one. As a clone of the Dragon God, the ancestor of the dragon race, which dragon's pressure would dare to suppress her?
At this time, in another bright and spacious room, a huge screen hung on the wall. The screen was neatly divided into fifty frames, and the actions of each candidate could be clearly observed in each frame.
Opposite the screen was a long table, and behind the long table, from left to right, sat a white-haired old woman, a gentle woman with dark green long hair, and a white-bearded old man.
These three were the examiners for this inner court assessment, and they were also the three The old man of the Sea God Pavilion: Cai Yue'er, Ya Li, and Zhuo Shi.
As the most important reserve force of Shrek Academy and the future backbone of Shrek Academy, most members of the Sea God Pavilion, the highest institution of Shrek Academy, come from the inner court.
Therefore, Shrek Academy has always attached great importance to the inner court assessment, which is personally conducted by the elders of the Sea God Pavilion.
"Look, that young man and young woman are performing very well!" Zhuo Shi said, pointing to the two frames on the screen.
The candidates in the frames were Qian Mo and Gu Yuena. They were seen with relaxed expressions and light footsteps under the Black Dragon's pressure, as if they were taking a stroll in a park.
"They are completely unaffected by the Black Dragon's pressure. Their mental strength is probably already close to the intermediate stage of the Spirit Communication realm." Cai Yue'er commented in surprise.
Zhuo Shi said excitedly, "These two kids are doing well! What's their background?!"
Ya Li, who was sitting in the middle of the three and was the chief examiner of the inner court assessment, said gently, "That young man is the disciple taken in by the Divine Craftsman."
Ya Li personally gave Qian Mo the inner court assessment spot, so she naturally understood Qian Mo's situation.
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Shi exclaimed in surprise, "So that's it! He is the disciple of the Divine Craftsman. As expected of the genius favored by the Divine Craftsman, he is indeed extraordinary. That crazy old man Feng Wuyu should be very interested in this kid."
"Hahaha, our Shrek Academy is still strong, even the disciple of the Divine Craftsman is willing to come." Zhuo Shi said proudly.
Qian Mo and Gu Yuena took the lead, leaving the other candidates far behind as they were the first to walk out of the hall.
Xu Li Zhi, who was moving his legs with a painful expression behind them, saw this scene and said with a wry smile to Ye Xing Lan beside him, "It seems they weren't lying to us. They really passed easily."
"Don't get distracted talking. Put all your attention on resisting the Black Dragon's pressure." Ye Xing Lan said coldly and then remained silent, but a hint of fighting spirit flashed in her eyes as she looked at Qian Mo's back.
Lan Mu Zi, who was guarding the door of the hall, saw Qian Mo and Gu Yuena and subconsciously checked the time, saying in surprise, "So fast! It seems the inner court is about to welcome two little monsters."
"Senior!" Qian Mo called out.
Lan Mu Zi nodded, pointed to the empty hall in front of him, and introduced, "The second stage, the Hero Platform, assesses individual combat ability."
"This place is built based on the technology of the Tang Sect's Hero Hall, similar to the Spirit Ascension Platform's simulated combat platform."
"Here, a member of the Shrek Seven Monsters from Shrek Academy's history will be your opponent."
"What is the assessment content?" Qian Mo asked.
Lan Mu Zi introduced, "The platform will simulate a member of the Shrek Seven Monsters with the same soul power level as you to fight against you. Passing requires lasting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
"Of course," Lan Mu Zi winked playfully, "if you can defeat your opponent, the Hero Platform will arrange a higher-level opponent for you. The more opponents you defeat, the higher the additional rewards the academy will give you."
On the ground, strange lines lit up. These lines were all light silver, and they intertwined, outlining a brilliant picture. And the dome above their heads also changed.
The silver patterns on the ground quietly disappeared, merging into the darkness. And at this moment, they were like they were floating in the night sky, entering a wonderful world.
Suddenly, the world spun. The surrounding scenery changed drastically, transforming into a fighting platform.
Opposite Qian Mo, a blue-haired young man appeared.
Cai Yue'er, who was observing Qian Mo, shook her head with regret when she saw Qian Mo's opponent on the Hero Platform.
"Facing Ancestor Tang San, Qian Mo will have a difficult time in this stage!"
The next moment, two purple thousand-year soul rings rose from under Qian Mo's feet.
"Thousand-year soul rings? This kid's physical fitness and mental strength are simply too outstanding." Zhuo Shi said in shock.
As the first soul ring on Qian Mo's body flashed, a terrifying dark green patterned black mask appeared on his face.
The mask was drawn from a branch of the Myriad Demon King, the Demon-Eyed Demon Lord!
Tang Shenwang? Qian Mo raised an eyebrow. What a coincidence!
Tang San used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps, creating One road figures that were difficult to distinguish between real and fake, attacking Qian Mo.
Dark green light spewed from Qian Mo's eyes, and the Demon Eye unleashed a strong mental shock. Tang San's posture suddenly froze, and his eyes were now incomparably dull.
The next moment, Qian Mo flicked his wrist, and several dark green branches shot up from the ground, instantly wrapping Tang San tightly in a flash of lightning.
Tang San struggled desperately, but it was useless. He couldn't break free from the branches of the Demon-Eyed Demon Tree at all.
The branches began to secrete poisonous sap. In a cloud of purple bubbles, Tang San gradually decomposed within the branches.
