Shrek Academy, Sea God Pavilion.
"Teacher, are you saying... there's another Shrek Academy in the sky?"
Yan Shaozhe looked at Mu En, who had a serious expression, and then at Bei Bei and Tang Ya, who were standing to the side with serious expressions. His face was full of disbelief, and he even felt that it was a bit absurd.
"And what's more, Beibei lost to a little girl from the Second Ring level?"
He shook his head, somewhat amused.
"Beibei, are you hallucinating because you've been cultivating too hard lately?"
"Building a school thousands of meters in the air? Even if you tied up all the people from Mingde Hall, they couldn't possibly do that."
Although Yan Shaozhe had great respect for Mu En, this matter was simply too unbelievable.
If Moon hadn't said it himself, he would have thought it was some kind of bad joke.
"Shao Zhe".
Moon opened his somewhat cloudy eyes slightly, his tone calm but carrying an undeniable authority.
"This matter is of utmost importance. That reckless fellow Xuanzi has already gone ahead, and I'm worried he might cause some trouble."
"Take Beibei and Xiaoya and go to the Star Dou Great Forest right now."
"We must stop Xuanzi before things get out of control!"
Upon hearing what Mu En said, Yan Shaozhe's smile faded somewhat.
Since the teacher has said so, we have to go and see it no matter what.
"Yes, Teacher." Yan Shaozhe bowed respectfully, then turned to look at Beibei and Tang Ya. "Let's go, lead the way."
...
As a level 95 Super Douluo, Yan Shaozhe is very fast. He led Beibei and Tang Ya, transforming into a streak of light that streaked across the sky, and arrived at the outer area of the Star Dou Great Forest in less than half an hour.
"Dean Yan, it's right ahead!"
Beibei pointed to an open space below and shouted.
Yan Shaozhe narrowed his eyes slightly and looked in the direction Bei Bei was pointing.
On that once desolate open space, several simple tables and chairs had appeared out of nowhere, with a rather rudimentary sign standing beside them.
Behind the table sat a man and a woman.
The man had red hair, a burly build, and exuded a fiery aura, appearing to have a rather hot temper.
The woman was wearing a dark green uniform, with a beautiful face and a gentle temperament.
"That is..."
The moment Beibei and Tangya saw the woman in green, their eyes lit up.
"Teacher Shen?!"
The two exclaimed in unison.
Isn't this Teacher Shen Yi, whom we met on that floating island before?!
Yan Shaozhe slowly descended with the two of them.
"Teacher Shen! What are you doing here?"
Tang Ya ran over excitedly and asked curiously.
Hearing the voice, Shen Yi looked up and saw Bei Bei and Tang Ya. A gentle smile appeared on his face.
"It's you guys."
Shen Yi said with a smile, then pointed to the table, chairs and signs next to him.
"As you can see, we are currently recruiting students for Shrek Academy."
"Recruitment?" Beibei glanced at the empty woods around her and scratched her head in confusion.
"Here? This is the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, can we really recruit students here?"
This is the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest!
Aside from the Soul Masters who come to hunt Soul Beasts, where would any eligible teenagers pass by?
Moreover, even if you were just passing by, seeing such a simple stall, you would probably think it was some kind of scam.
"Sure." Shen Yi smiled confidently. "One of our students, who possesses the 'Horn Martial Soul,' has already gone to nearby towns and villages to spread the word. I believe that soon people who have heard of its reputation will come here."
Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe, who had been standing silently to the side, frowned more and more, and his anger began to rise rapidly.
Admissions? Do we still need to go to nearby towns to promote it?
If ordinary people saw this shabby recruitment scene, they would think it was the famous No. 1 academy on the mainland!
This is absolutely ruining Shrek Academy's reputation! This is intolerable!
"Snort!"
Yan Shaozhe finally couldn't hold back any longer. He snorted coldly, and a trace of the aura of a Super Douluo was released from his body.
"Lady, ou keep saying you're recruiting students for Shrek Academy. But as far as I know, the real Shrek Academy never recruits students in such a desolate place; in fact, they actively seek out students!"
"You're clearly just swindling people!"
"Besides, you used the name'Shrek' in your promotional materials, didn't you?"
Yan Shaozhe stepped forward, his gaze sharp as he stared at Shen Yi and the red-haired man.
"Do you realize that this is an infringement on the honor of Shrek Academy?!"
"Honor?" The red-haired man who had been sitting silently to the side—that is, the Crimson Dragon Douluo Zhuoshi—finally raised his head.
His large, bell-like eyes gleamed with disdain. "Where did you come from? You dare to talk about honor in front of us?"
Zhuo Shi's loud voice shook the surrounding leaves.
"We are originally from Shrek Academy! Why can't we use this name?"
"But you guys..."
Zhuo Shi looked Yan Shaozhe up and down, then curled his lip. "Does someone like you even deserve to call himself a member of Shrek Academy?"
"What did you say?!" Yan Shaozhe said in exasperation.
He, the dean of the Martial Soul Department of Shrek Academy, was actually told by an unknown big man that he was not worthy of calling himself a member of Shrek Academy.
"That's utter nonsense! Only Shrek Academy on our Seagod Island is the true lineage with a history of ten thousand years!"
"You're nothing but a bunch of counterfeiters who steal names!"
"How dare you spout such nonsense here?!"
Yan Shaozhe's soul power began to surge violently, the surrounding air temperature suddenly rose, and a huge phantom of a radiant phoenix faintly appeared behind him.
"Piracy?" Zhuoshi was also enraged and slammed his hand on the table, standing up abruptly.
"Boom--" A violent, crimson flame erupted from his body in an instant!
A crimson dragon phantom roared and coiled behind him, its momentum no less than that of Yan Shaozhe's Radiant Phoenix!
"What I hate most in this life is someone calling me a fraud! Since you're not convinced, let's settle this with our skills!"
"Let's see who's the real deal and who's the imposter!"
Zhuo Shi's "fight if you're not convinced" attitude instantly ignited the atmosphere of tension in the room.
"That suits me perfectly!" A cold glint flashed in Yan Shaozhe's eyes, showing no sign of fear.
Since these scammers are so reckless, let's teach them a lesson! Only when they are truly hurt will they learn what true respect is!
"Wait...wait a minute!" Beibei, standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.
He looked at the two men, who were on the verge of a fight and seemed ready to come at any moment, and felt completely bewildered.
That's not how the script was written!
Elder Mu asked you to come here so that you could persuade Elder Xuan not to cause trouble, right?
Why are you like Elder Xuan, resorting to violence at the slightest disagreement?! Have you been spending too much time with Elder Xuan?
If they start fighting again, wouldn't things just get even more chaotic?!
"Dean Yan! Please calm down!" Bei Bei wanted to step forward to stop them, but under the terrifying clash of the two Super Douluo's auras, he couldn't even get close and could only shout anxiously.
"The Ancestor sent you to settle things, not to cause trouble!"
However, the two men, already caught up in their own thoughts, were no longer willing to listen to his advice.
"Enough with the nonsense!" With a roar, Zhuo Shi, his body wreathed in crimson dragon flames, charged toward Yan Shao Zhe like a cannonball!
"I'll show you today why flowers are so red!"
[A/N : I have no idea what these Chinese proverbs and sayings mean]
"Third Soul Skill, Crimson Dragon Emerges from the Sea!!!"
"Hmph! You think I'm afraid of you?!" Yan Shaozhe also let out a cold shout, and the bright phoenix behind him let out a clear phoenix cry and rushed towards the turbid world!
"Fourth Soul Skill, Phoenix Piercing Cloud Strike!!!"
BOOM!!!
--------------------------------------------------------
A/N: So Yan Shaozhe is picking a fight too. Mu En should have known nobody in Sea God Pavilion even remotely have diplomatic skills. They just don't think on same wavelength as regular people.
Anyway hope all of you are enjoying this story so far. I would appreciate some Power Stones if you can spare any. Thank you.
