"Teacher Tang Chuan was indeed a teacher at Shrek Academy."
When they heard Flander admit that Blue Silver Douluo was a teacher at Shrek Academy, the three education committee members were immediately surprised. They never expected that this seemingly ordinary Shrek Academy would have such a background. It was truly unexpected.
Meng Shenji couldn't help but ask, "Dean Flander, if I may be frank, since your academy has such a connection with Blue Silver Douluo, why not go and seek refuge with him?"
If Shrek Academy truly had a relationship with Blue Silver Douluo, then there was absolutely no need to seek refuge with the Heaven Dou Royal Academy; they could simply go directly to Blue Silver Douluo. With Blue Silver Douluo's current status and resources, helping Shrek Academy overcome its difficulties would be incredibly easy. But
why didn't Shrek Academy go?
Seeing the probing looks from the three education committee members, Flander and the teachers behind him, including Zhao Wuji, all wore wry smiles. If they truly had a good relationship with Blue Silver Douluo, then naturally they would be more than happy to have him. But the key issue now is their relationship with that Teacher Tang Chuan. It was merely a casual acquaintance. Moreover, Teacher Tang Chuan had long since left Shrek Academy.
"Three seniors, to be honest, that Blue Silver Douluo was indeed 'once' a teacher at Shrek Academy, but he only taught for a few days before resigning," Flander said with a wry smile, clasping his hands in a gesture of respect. "And the fact that he taught at Shrek Academy was purely by chance." He sighed, his face filled with regret and remorse.
If he had known that the mysterious Teacher Tang Chuan would now be a Title Douluo, even a king of a nation, he would have refused to accept his resignation, no matter how shameless he was. Even if he were gone, having his name on the faculty would have been better.
Having a Title Douluo as a teacher at the academy… one can imagine the immense benefit it would have brought to Shrek Academy's reputation.
But alas, what's lost is lost.
"I see,"
the three committee members nodded knowingly. This also explains why Shrek Academy chose to ally with the Heaven Dou Royal Academy instead of the Blue Silver Douluo. If it was just a casual acquaintance, then it makes perfect sense.
Next,
the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was led by Meng Shenji, while Shrek Academy was naturally represented by Flander. The two sides began in-depth negotiations. Because Meng Shenji offered very generous terms, the two chatted more and more congenially, feeling as if they had known each other for a long time…
Finally, Meng Shenji said, "Then this matter is settled. Teacher Qin, I'll trouble you to make the arrangements."
Qin Ming quickly nodded in agreement.
Just as the Shrek Academy members were preparing to take their leave and return to their courtyards, footsteps suddenly sounded outside.
It sounded like two people.
"Is Chief Meng Shenji here?"
The voice came from outside before the person even arrived.
The person's voice was loud and confident. However, there was a hint of arrogance in the voice; while not overbearing, it was certainly not humble or polite.
Meng Shenji was taken aback. He naturally recognized the owner of the voice and thought to himself, "Why is he here?" They quickly stood up and went out to greet them.
Soon, three people walked in.
One of them was someone the Shrek Academy students recognized—it was Xue Beng, the one Dai Mubai had kicked away at the foot of the mountain yesterday.
Xue Beng stood on the left, his face arrogant, his eyes filled with intense hatred.
Walking in the center was an elderly man in magnificent robes.
He wore a large yellow robe embroidered with floral patterns, yet it appeared perfectly neat. His white hair was neatly combed back. He was of medium build, slightly plump, and had a dignified appearance. Only his eyes seemed a little small, disrupting the overall harmony of his features. He stood with his hands behind his back, showing no respect even towards the three Soul Douluo instructors, instead exuding an air of superiority.
Upon seeing these three, the Shrek Academy students were immediately taken aback. Not because of their appearance, but because of the person walking to the right of the elderly man in magnificent robes.
Previously, whether it was Ning Rongrong, the weakest of the Shrek Seven Devils, or Flander, the strongest and dean of Shrek Academy, they only heard two footsteps. But three people entered. What did this prove?
Standing to the right of the elderly man in the magnificent robes was a middle-aged man.
This man was tall and slender, with black hair that faintly shimmered with green light. He had a handsome face and looked to be about forty or fifty years old. His eyes shone like emeralds!
This middle-aged man gave people a sense of illusion, as if he were a phantom. His footsteps could not be seen, yet he always followed beside the elderly man in the magnificent robes. He wore only a simple gray robe, which was a stark contrast to the elderly man in the magnificent robes beside him.
This man was expressionless, with his hands tucked into his sleeves. After entering the Education Committee Hall, he did not even glance at the people present, but closed his eyes and began to rest.
"Your Highness, what brings you here?" Meng Shenji stepped forward and bowed slightly to the elderly man in the magnificent robes.
But both he and the other two Soul Douluos focused their attention on the middle-aged man. Even they couldn't fathom his true nature. The
elderly man in fine clothes, Prince Xue Xing, smiled calmly, glancing at the Shrek Academy students. Xue Beng, standing beside him, quickly whispered something in the elderly man's ear.
Prince Xue Xing then said, "What? Do the three of you have guests here? Aren't you going to introduce them to me?"
Meng Shenji frowned slightly. Although the other party was a prince, given their status in the Soul Master world, even a prince shouldn't be so rude. But this person was the one in charge of the academy within the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, and they couldn't afford to offend him.
Meng Shenji smiled slightly and led the three into the hall. By this time, everyone from Shrek Academy had already stood up.
Meng Shenji said, "Your Highness, let me introduce you. This is Flander, the Dean of Shrek Academy. He's here to discuss cooperation with us. Dean Flander, this is Prince Xuexing of the Heaven Dou Empire. The Royal Academy is currently under His Highness's jurisdiction."
Although Flander wasn't particularly fond of this high-ranking prince, he still gave a slight bow and said, "Greetings, Your Highness."
Prince Xuexing didn't even glance at him, coldly saying, "Shrek Academy? Never heard of it. It must be a third-rate academy. Chief Meng Shenji, how could you allow these people of unknown origin to come to our academy?"
Upon hearing this, the Shrek Academy members were furious. Zhao Wuji, standing next to Flander, was about to lash out, but Flander forcefully restrained him.
Meng Shenji's expression changed. "Your Highness, you can't say that. Shrek Academy has cultivated countless outstanding Soul Masters. Our teacher, Qin, is a graduate of Shrek Academy. The fact that Dean Flander and the other teachers from Shrek Academy are willing to teach at our academy shows they are all invaluable talents."
"Oh?" Upon hearing that Qin Ming was from Shrek Academy, Prince Xuexing's expression softened. He looked at Flander and said, "Chief Meng Shenji, according to the academy's rules, hiring teachers should involve an assessment, right? I wonder if these teachers have already passed?" Zhilin, standing
beside Meng Shenji, couldn't help but say, "The teachers from Shrek Academy all possess the strength of a Heaven Dou-level teacher; they don't need an assessment. Your Highness, did you come here today just for this?" His words were clearly somewhat impolite.
Prince Xuexing snorted coldly, "The Heavenly Dou Royal Academy is a pillar of the empire, the place that cultivates the nation's future leaders. As teachers, our influence on the students is immense. I absolutely do not want the academy to hire arrogant and domineering individuals. I heard from Xue Beng that these 'distinguished guests' beat him up as soon as they arrived at the academy yesterday. Xue Beng is, after all, the fourth prince of the empire, representing the dignity of the royal family. How can he be so easily humiliated?"
Meng Shenji and the other two then understood why Prince Xuexing had come. Looking at Xue Beng beside them, his face filled with hatred as he stared intently at Dai Mubai, the three couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It was precisely because of these brainless nobles that the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy was unable to cultivate more outstanding talents.
