Chapter 14 - Shrek Academy

"What a shame!"

Boom!

The burly man glared at the disheveled Dai Mubai sitting next to him and angrily slammed the table.

Flender glanced at the shaking table and twitched his eyes.

"Old Zhao, pay attention!"

No matter how sturdy the table is, it can't withstand a blow from Zao Wou-ki, a Spirit Sage!

"What's wrong?. Did I make a mistake?. Fine, even if this kid can't win against others, he still forced his fiancée to leave in anger!. A young girl dared to come all this way to find you, doesn't that mean anything?"

"Where is your dignity as a man?. Where is your warrior spirit?. Your fiancée is right in front of you, facing a rival, and if you don't even have the courage to fight, then just let go."

The more Zhao Wuji spoke, the angrier he became, and he couldn't help but shout at Dai Mubai, "Are you afraid that he won't be able to catch up to you? Did you intentionally give him a chance?"

Dai Mubai sat in his chair with his head down, his golden hair hanging down, and he remained silent. Boss Zhao's words were indeed reasonable, but what was he fighting for back then?.

Zhuqing didn't even listen to his explanation and slapped him right away, making him look ugly in front of everyone. And now there's this guy who seems to be a rival in love, watching... Admittedly, he knew he was wrong, he was subdued in one move.

To be honest, after Dai Mubai calmed down, he knew that he had made a mistake, and his doubtful words had truly hurt Zhu Zhuqing's heart. But did Zhu Zhuqing do anything wrong?. Publicly cuddling with a stranger, what does that make her fiancé think!

Flender pushed up his boxy black-rimmed glasses, and a glimmer of light flashed in his narrowed eyes.

"Mubai, are you sure that kid is around the same age as you?"

Dai Mubai nodded, then hesitated a little before saying, "He should be younger than me."

"Could it be Tang San?" Flender murmured to himself.

As an old friend and a rival in love, Flender was well aware of Yu Xiaogang's high standards. The disciples recommended and praised by him were undoubtedly exceptional. But for him to defeat Dai Mubai at such a young age seemed a bit outrageous.

Dai Mubai's failure this time not only brought disgrace to Shrek Academy, but also completely embarrassed Flender. His disciple, Ma Hongjun, couldn't defeat Dai Mubai, yet Dai Mubai was defeated by Yu Xiaogang's disciple. Could it be that Flender himself was truly inferior to Yu Xiaogang in this lifetime?. Lost in love and also losing in disciples.

Apart from his decent spirit power, even the quality of his martial spirit was inferior to Yu Xiaogang's. Even though Yu Xiaogang's martial spirit was unremarkable, Flender, one of the Golden Iron Triangle, knew well what Yu Xiaogang's martial spirit was.

The quality of his martial spirit was undoubtedly excellent, but it was a pity that he was hindered by his innate spirit power, turning Luo Sanpao into this mess. Otherwise, he would have possessed the Golden Holy Dragon.

"So, that kid's name is Tang San?"

Flender's whispered words couldn't escape Dai Mubai's ears, and they couldn't escape Zhao Wuji's either. Moreover, Zao Wou-ki's voice was loud, so Ma Hongjun and Oscar outside the door could clearly hear it.

Flender nodded.

"A few days ago, the master sent me a letter saying that he had accepted a talented disciple who is around the same age as you, and he wants to join our Shrek Academy."

Flender didn't feel guilty about what he said at all. Although he was the one who made the first move and was rejected twice by Yu Xiaogang, his rival in love. But considering the outcome, it was undoubtedly satisfactory. At most, there were a few "a little bit" insignificant modifiers in his words.

Ma Hongjun's hand, which was about to push the door, suddenly stopped. He wasn't deaf, so he could naturally hear the voices coming from inside the room. From the looks of it, Boss Dai had clearly been beaten up by his master's apprentice.

And it seemed that the fiancée had been snatched away by the master's apprentice as well. What in the world was happening?

Anyway, at this moment, pushing the door and going in..There was a high probability that it would enrage his master, and then he would get beaten up as fatty, and finally his master would urge him to practice.

He was already very familiar with this process, couldn't be more familiar, in fact. So, Ma Hongjun secretly poked Oscar and whispered, "It seems we came at the wrong time."

Oscar nodded approvingly, if it wasn't for Fatty insisting on dragging him into this mess, he would rather be sleeping in the dormitory. After all, apart from treating injuries, he didn't have any special tasks.

Taking advantage of the noise of Zao Wou-ki slamming the table in the room before it subsided, the two looked at each other and quietly slipped away.

"His name isn't Tang San."

Dai Mubai's tone carried a hint of frustration.

He had heard the name Tang San before; it was the name of the boy who was fighting him for the suite.

He seemed mediocre.

Although he didn't fight against him, his aura seemed somewhat unrefined.

Of course, it's not like Dai Mubai had never encountered people who appeared weak but were strong in reality, so Tang San didn't leave a deep impression on him.

Flender became interested.

"Then what is his name?"

"I don't know."

"You don't know this, you don't know that, what do you know?"

Zhao Wuji glared.

One question, three answers. They were all utterly useless. Saying it aloud would make Zao Wou-ki lose face!

A look of fear appeared on Dai Mubai's face.

"I only know..... He's like a ghost. My attacks are useless against him. He doesn't have any defenses either. And then I was caught by his trick."

Looking at Dai Mubai, who had fallen back into an absent state, Flender and Zhao Wuji exchanged speechless glances. His state of mind was undoubtedly shattered.

Asking any more questions would only cause further damage to Dai Mubai's heart. At his current level, there were only two possibilities. The first was to break and then rebuild, the second was to completely fall apart. The risks were too great; Flender didn't dare to take that bet.

After all, in terms of spirit master talent, Dai Mubai was undoubtedly a good seed. Zhao Wuji nodded at Flender, then grabbed Dai Mubai by the collar and led the dazed Dai Mubai out of the room.

"Young, powerful, and strange spirit skills..."

Flender gazed at the sunset outside the window, pondering where this genius came from and why.

Anyway, he didn't come to Shrek Academy for the sake of Shrek Academy. Although Shrek Academy had a loud slogan, it couldn't change the fact that its cultivation environment was very poor.. The quality of the faculty and the teaching environment were two different things.

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy had a simulated cultivation site. The Spirit Hall had vast and abundant training resources, and even had a specially built battlefield for the Golden Generation. Although Star Luo Royal Academy didn't have all those luxuries, it had a vast enough site!

Which of the three academies mentioned earlier had weaker faculty than Shrek Academy?. And the Spirit Hall Academy even had a Titled Douluo overseeing it!

What about Shrek Academy?, Two Spirit Sages and two Spirit Emperors. And on top of that, the academy was still located in a small village.

Flender let out a long sigh. To be honest, he really missed the time when the three of them traveled together on the mainland. At the very least, before that incident occurred, he was happy and carefree.
