Chapter 16: Shrek Academy
Early morning.
At the door of a hotel in Soto City, Zhao Xuan walked out of it and stretched lazily.
"I slept so comfortably."
Behind him, Tang San, Xiao Wu and Hermione walked out of it in turn, several of them were in good spirits, and it seemed that they had rested well last night.
At this time, the sun is rising, and there is still a faint mist in the city, but the streets are already bustling with traffic, and countless early vendors are hawking on the side of the street, maintaining the livelihood of the family.
Zhao Xuan's expression suddenly moved, and he asked in a sly manner, "Tang San, Xiao Wu, why didn't you rest in the Rose Hotel yesterday." β
Tang San and Xiao Wu were stunned for a moment, and then Sister Xiao Wu's angry voice came: "Zhao Xuan! You can't find death! By the way, you know it's ...... It's the kind of hostel, why didn't you call us in. β
Zhao Xuan pursed his lips and said in a scoundrel's voice: "I thought you knew." β
"Hee-hee." Looking at Zhao Xuan's scoundrel appearance, Hermione on the side couldn't help but smile secretly.
As a rabbit, no one has Sister Xiaowu's ears more intelligent, even though Hermione is still several meters away from her, but Sister Xiaowu's ears still catch Hermione's laughter: "And you, you know it, Hermione." β
Hermione lowered her eyebrows and glanced at Sister Xiao Wu, "I thought you knew." β
"Well, you two really know! Say, are you two teaming up to see Sister Xiaowu's jokes! Seeing the same answer between the two, Sister Xiao Wu knew that there was a cat in it.
Sister Xiao Wu's face was flushed, and she didn't know whether she was ashamed or angry.
"Okay, okay, don't make a fuss, let's go and report it." As the male protagonist, Tang San finally spoke, only to see that his face was faintly red, and his eyes did not dare to look directly at Zhao Xuan and Hermione.
"There's something wrong with these two people." Zhao Xuan and Xiao Wu walked in front, and Zhao Xuan rubbed his chin and said to Hermione beside him.
"Everyone can see that there is something wrong with them." Hermione curled her blonde hair boringly, glanced at Zhao Xuan by the way, and said a little funny.
An unnamed village outside of Soto.
"Little San, are you in the wrong place?" The sun was high in the sky, and several people were sweating hot, and Sister Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask.
Tang San also looked around a little uncertainly, and said hesitantly, "It should be here." β
"But do you look like there's an academy around you? I really don't understand why the master let you come here. Hermione said with some complaint while fanning the wind with her hand, and Xiao Wu also nodded again and again, agreeing with Hermione's idea.
Because the temperature is too high, the sweat can't stop flowing downward, which makes the two girls who love cleanliness feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Let's go and ask the villagers in the village, if there is a soul master academy around, it is impossible for them not to know." Zhao Xuan pointed to a few people at the entrance of the village in the distance.
"Okay."
A few people approached the entrance of the village and immediately realized that something was wrong. At the entrance of the village, a table was set up, and an old man in his sixties was sitting in the back, and several teenagers of their age were lined up in front of him, accompanied by their families.
Zhao Xuan raised his eyebrows: "I suddenly have an ominous premonition." β
Hermione tugged at his sleeve, "Look, your hunch is right. β
Looking in the direction of Hermione's finger, Zhao Xuan suddenly felt that the whole person was not good.
Above the old man's head was a wooden arch with a broken plaque engraved with several large characters, and an ugly humanoid monster head painted on the back.
Due to the fact that the paint was almost gone, everyone didn't see the words on the plaque when they were far away, but now they can see it clearly.
"Shi ...... Lake...... Academy? It took Xiao Wu a lot of effort to recognize a few words.
"Little San, isn't this the academy that the master asked us to study?" The corners of Zhao Xuan's mouth twitched, and he always felt like he had been cheated by the master.
"Make no mistake, this academy is not as good as my family's academy."
Hermione's big brown eyes looked at the tattered Shrek Academy in disbelief. Come on, that's not a third of Notting College's age.
Not only Tang San and the others were suspicious, but even the other teenagers who had already arrived were also confused.
As time passed, more and more people came, and a group of people gradually became a mess at the entrance of the village, noisy like a vegetable market.
The old man in charge of admissions sat lazily in his chair, dressed plainly, like an old farmer who was about to do anything, and he turned a deaf ear to the discussion of the group of people in front of him, as if he was dozing.
But at a certain moment, he opened his eyes, and a fine light flashed in his cloudy eyes.
"Registration is open! The registration fee is ten gold soul coins, and the soul coins are put in the box in front of them. He still looks lazy, which makes people worry about whether he will fall asleep in the next second.
Tang San and Zhao Xuan glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"This old man doesn't seem to be simple." Tang San said calmly.
"That's right, at least it's much stronger than Grandpa Hermione, at least a soul king-level powerhouse, maybe it's not necessarily a soul emperor." Zhao Xuan was also quite curious, if this old man was really a strong man, if he didn't say the Soul Emperor, he would say that he was the Soul King! This academy shouldn't be so shabby!
"Just him, better than my grandfather?" Hermione was a little unconvinced when she heard this, could this old man who looked like an old farmer be better than her grandfather, who was the head of Notting Academy?
Zhao Xuanle said: "Don't believe it, with your grandfather's Soul Sect cultivation, even if I don't use this strength, I can defeat him." β
Hermione wanted to refute when she heard this, but after thinking about it, she didn't seem to know what to do, so after glaring at Zhao Xuan, she was a little sullen.
Since the registration has begun, no matter how problematic this academy is, people have already come, so you have to give it a try.
So a parent walked up with his child and put ten gold soul coins in the box in front of the old man.
But who would have thought that the old man just pinched the young man's arm and brushed him off: "You don't match your age, you can go." β
The boy seemed a little at a loss, and subconsciously looked at his father, so his father began his performance.
At first, he still asked in a low voice, but as the old man ruthlessly refused again and again, even if it was a clay figure, it was still three points of earthiness.
The boy's father was furious: "You are clearly cheating money." Refund our registration fee, otherwise we won't leave. If we had known that this so-called Shrek Academy was so shabby, we shouldn't have come. β
The old man glanced at him and said lightly: "Mu Bai, someone wants to repay the fame fee, you deal with it." β
On the ground next to him, a figure suddenly jumped up, "If you want to repay the fame fee, you can beat me and return it all." β
Dai Mubai didn't talk nonsense, he directly urged his soul power and released all three soul rings for two hundred years and one thousand years. The surging soul power produced an invisible pressure in the air, and the cold light flashed in the evil eyes, looking at the father and son.
The father and son's faces turned pale for a while, and in this world, the soul ring is the best way to speak.
The crowd was crowded just now, and the group didn't know when Dai Mubai came, but looking at the way it looked now, Dai Mubai should be from this Shrek Academy.
"No wonder he said we'd talk about it later, he must have guessed the purpose of our visit to Soto City." Zhao Xuan was also a little surprised when he saw Dai Mubai, now it seems that this guy's brain is not bad.
"It's that scum." Hermione and Xiao Wu snorted at the same time, obviously not feeling good to Dai Mubai.
And the crowd behind couldn't help but stir after this scene, and someone next to a few people was talking.
"What the hell is going on in this academy, how do I feel like a den of bandits."
"yes, whose academy would be so shabby, wouldn't we be in the wrong place?"
The crowd was surging and talking, and soon someone left with their own children, obviously the scene just now gave them a bad impression.
Seeing the crowd passing, the old man seemed to be impatient, Shrek had almost no people every year, and this year, if there were no more two little monsters in this group of people, I am afraid that the academy would not be able to do it.
So he stood up from behind the desk a little impatiently, and walked to the person who lined up behind him to sign up: "Come to our Shrek Academy to register, you should know the rules first." I came here without figuring it out, and I just gave the registration fee for nothing. It's too late to regret it now. Do you know the meaning of Shrek in the name Shrek Academy? β
Shrek? Zhao Xuan naturally didn't know, but the slime still had a good image, a lump of knick-knuckles like jelly, and this guy was generally cannon fodder in the novice village when he played games.
The old man said coldly: "Shrek is a kind of monster, even among soul beasts, it is an extremely strange existence. The meaning of our Shrek Academy is Monster Academy. In other words, we only accept monsters here, not ordinary people. If you are over thirteen years old, or if your soul power has not reached the twenty-first level or above, you don't need to waste your time here. β
"Wow!" Zhao Xuan let out a strange exclamation.
"Junior, I suddenly think this academy is quite interesting. An academy that only accepts monsters?! This is obviously taller than this faΓ§ade. β
Zhao Xuan looked at the old man with interest, and suddenly became interested in this academy.
