Chapter 23 Shrek
However, most parents soon looked regretful and silently left with their children, instantly reducing the number of applicants by two-thirds.
"Thank you so much, young man."
The uncle who took back the registration fee came over with his chubby son to express his gratitude.
"It's nothing, I just can't stand them bullying the weak."
The middle-aged man's expression changed, and he glanced around before speaking in a low voice.
"However, young man, with your strength, you shouldn't enroll in Shrek Academy. A genius like you could even enroll directly in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"If my son weren't so badly lacking in strength, I wouldn't have brought him to Shrek Academy to try his luck."
After saying that, he glanced around and, finding no one paying attention, gave Luo Hao a look that said it all, then quickly left with his chubby little boy.
It was too stimulating to poach someone in front of a Soul Emperor like that. He wouldn't have been willing to offend a Soul Emperor again if Luo Hao hadn't actually helped him.
"He's a sensible person, though."
Luo Hao sighed as he watched the two run away quickly. Noticing that others were looking at them again, he looked at Xiao Wu and Tang San with an unchanged expression.
"What do you think, mistress? Do you still want to register here?"
A smile flashed across Tang San's face, his interest completely piqued. Did they only accept monsters and not ordinary people?
Doesn't that mean they only accept geniuses?
Luo Hao could tell at a glance that Tang San had been completely fooled by Shrek Academy's promotional claims, and even Xiao Wu looked very excited.
The sparse queue quickly moved to the front, and Dai Mubai naturally spotted Tang San, nodding to him discreetly.
Just as the two were exchanging telegrams, a soft exclamation drew their attention back to the scene.
Li Yusong looked at the girl in front of him with a strange expression. The girl was not accompanied by her parents, and her simple white dress gave her a very clean feeling.
She had neat, short hair that reached her ears, and was about half a head shorter than Xiao Wu, who had long legs. Her skin was delicate and fair, and she looked like a young lady from a wealthy family.
"Have I passed the preliminary test?"
The girl's voice was soft and melodious, lacking some of her heroic spirit, but it sounded gentle and soothing, giving people a tingling sensation.
"Damn those clips, they're actually making a pretty good sound!"
Upon hearing Ning Rongrong's affected and pretentious voice, Luo Hao, who knew her identity even though others couldn't tell the difference, instantly got goosebumps.
Do your family members know you're here?
Ning Rongrong did not answer the question directly, but simply smiled slightly.
"Everyone says that education should be provided to all, regardless of background. As long as I meet the school's requirements, you have no reason not to accept me, right?"
Li Yusong hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand. "Take her inside!"
Dai Mubai quickly withdrew the predatory look from his eyes, reverting to his original cold demeanor, and silently led Ning Rongrong into the academy.
"Hey, have you practiced some kind of soul skill?"
Li Yusong, not believing in such superstitions, touched Tang San's hand again, let out a soft "hmm," and his expression turned strange.
Tang San was startled, his eyes narrowed, and he immediately became alert and nodded.
"Yes."
Li Yusong frowned and lifted your calf up.
Tang San did as instructed and immediately felt a tingling or numb sensation.
"Your muscles are well-developed, and you're the right age. Release your martial spirits."
Three beams of light—red, blue, and gold—rose simultaneously, while three soul rings—yellow, yellow, and purple—spiraled upwards.
Li Yusong glanced at Luo Hao and Xiao Wu before looking at Tang San. "It's actually Blue Silver Grass! Can Blue Silver Grass be cultivated this quickly?"
Tang San smiled slightly, "Teacher, doesn't your academy only accept monsters and not ordinary people? Then I guess I'm considered a monster, right?"
"It is indeed a little monster. Mu Bai, take the three of them inside."
Dai Mubai's face immediately fell, but he still smiled at Luo Hao and the other two, though his eyes lingered on the back with reluctance.
Luo Hao immediately understood; it seemed the kitten had arrived.
"What are you looking at? Trying to ruin some girl again?"
Xiao Wu followed his gaze and her face immediately turned cold.
Dai Mubai frowned. "What do you know? I just sensed a complementary aura on that girl. In martial souls, it's extremely difficult to find a complementary martial soul, but once you do, your strength will increase exponentially when you join forces. That's what's called a martial soul fusion skill."
Xiao Wu chuckled, "So, does that mean that girl's martial soul must be a tigress?"
A hint of embarrassment appeared on Dai Mubai's face. "Maybe."
"You'll line up here for the second round of testing. The teacher will tell you what to do. I need to go out and check on things."
Dai Mobai pointed to the line in front of him.
"If she can really form a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with me, then I'll do anything to win her over."
He left in a hurry after saying that.
"Sausages for sale! Sausages for sale! Take a look, don't miss out! Oscar brand sausages, delicious and sweet, and affordable. Only five copper coins apiece. Eating Oscar brand sausages will guarantee you pass your entrance exams more easily!"
Luo Hao looked in the direction of the sound and sure enough, a disheveled, bearded man came into view.
At that moment, he was pushing a cart and selling meat by himself. The aroma of meat wafted from the cart, and several students in line had already gone over to buy some.
Although his appearance is not good, especially sleazy, it must be said that Oscar's martial spirit is quite good.
As a pure meat-based food-type martial soul, its innate soul power is as high as level 10, which is a great talent that would allow it to secure a good position in either the Spirit Hall or the Heaven Dou Empire.
Unfortunately, I don't know why I stayed at Shrek Academy for some reason.
"Brother, Xiao Wu, would you like a sausage?"
"It smells good, let's give it a try!"
Xiao Wu looked at it and tilted her head.
"You guys line up here, I'll go buy a few."
Tang San nodded and spoke to Luo Hao and Xiao Wu.
"Uncle, three sausages, please."
Oscar's expression suddenly froze. "What...what did you call me?"
Tang San was also stunned. "I called you 'uncle'? Is there a problem?"
"Of course there's a problem, a big problem. I'm only fourteen years old and you're calling me 'uncle'!"
Tang San was also very surprised, thinking to himself that this school was really bizarre.
It's truly astounding that a fourteen-year-old with such a beard looks like that.
"Tang San, what are you doing?"
Before Tang San could react, Oscar's face fell.
"Hey Boss Dai, wanna get a sausage?"
Dai Mubai glared at him fiercely.
"I feel like I've warned you more than once not to sell your sausages at school."
Seeing Tang San's bewildered expression, Dai Mubai immediately looked at Oscar.
"Little Ao, get a new sausage."
Oscar looked embarrassed. "Brother Dai, this isn't necessary. We've been classmates for years. If you do this, the new junior will hold a grudge against me."
