Xie Xie's tone grew fervent, "As long as we win the championship in this exchange competition, we might become the new Shrek Seven Monsters. Teacher Shen, you're not joking with us, are you!"
Students bestowed with the title "Shrek Seven Monsters" would become the pride of the entire Shrek Academy!
Even for an inner court student, the chance of obtaining this title is extremely slim!
And now they actually had the opportunity to obtain this supreme title!
With a calm expression, Shen Yi asked in return, "Joking? Do you think I'm joking?"
She wasn't lying. To stabilize the minds of the Shrek students, a new generation of "Shrek Seven Monsters" was indeed necessary!
As the most outstanding disciples among the outer courtyard students, Tang Wulin and seven others, along with some students, had already been included in the assessment, of course, that included Yuanen Yehui who had already been designated within!
Tang Wulin clenched his fists, murmuring, "The Shrek Seven Monsters... If we can obtain this title, it means we are the most outstanding team in Shrek Academy!"
Xu Xiaoyan seriously said, "Since Teacher Shen has said so, no matter who the opponent is, they should not even dream of stopping us from winning the championship!"
Gu Yue's beautiful eyes flickered faintly, "Although it's very difficult, it's not without a chance!"
If she could become one of the Shrek Seven Monsters, she might also have a chance to become one of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion in the future. At that time... she could also provide some support to the military!
Even Wu Siduo and Ye Xinglan couldn't help but be moved. After all, "Shrek Seven Monsters" was not just a title; wherever they went later, they would receive extremely high treatment!
Every student of Shrek Academy has at least fantasized about becoming one of the Shrek Seven Monsters!
Seeing that she had once again ignited their morale, a faint smile appeared at the corners of Shen Yi's mouth...
"However... it's only a possibility after all. Whether you can become the Shrek Seven Monsters still depends on your performance!"
As they were discussing, Pan Wen's voice had once again sounded...
"The winner of this bout is, Star Luo Monster Academy!"
What followed was the cheering of many spectating students...
"They are so strong! This Monster Academy is probably many times stronger than Shrek Academy!"
"That's right, they settled their opponent in just a few minutes. With such terrifying strength... there's really no need for any preliminaries at all."
"This exchange competition is going to be quite a show, Shrek Academy versus Monster Academy, just thinking about it seems daunting."
"Psh, no matter how strong the students of the Monster Academy are, fakes will always be fakes. Do they really think that just by having a name, they can be compared to an institution with such profound heritage as Shrek Academy?"
"What? You dare to call our Monster Academy a fake, do you no longer wish to live?"
"Psh, Monster Academy was specially built as a model of Shrek Academy, no one is unaware of this, right?"
Hearing these clamorous arguments, Tang Wulin and the others were left dumbfounded...
They had intended to observe the students of the Monster Academy thoroughly to be prepared for the upcoming confrontation!
But now, aside from knowing that each of the students was a five-ringed Soul King, they knew nothing else!
The group cast a grievous glance at Shen Yi, "Teacher Shen, you couldn't have done that on purpose just now, could you?"
Shen Yi turned her head away, shrugging her shoulders nonchalantly, "Who knows..."
The just-concluded battle, she had watched it very clearly...
Monster Academy was indeed strong!
Even their strength could be compared to the past Shrek Seven Monsters!
If Tang Wulin and the others had seen it, it might have hit their morale again!
Rather than that, it might be better to wait until they were up on the stage to find out for themselves!
...
Sitting on the imperial throne, Dai Tianling watched as Dai Yueyan and the others easily dealt with their opponents...
He spoke with a faint smile, "The Star Luo Monster Academy was established based on the model of the number one academy on the Continent, Shrek Academy, with entry criteria directly referencing the Shrek Academy's inner court!"
"Therefore, this academy has very few students, but all of them are elite Soul Masters from the Xingluo Land!!"
These words seemed to be explaining the origins of the Monster Academy to Xu Sheng and Mu Ye beside him!
With pursed lips, Mu Ye offhandedly said, "I didn't expect His Majesty the Emperor to come up with such an idea, but... the heritage of Shrek Academy is not so easily matched!"
The sheer number of Hyper Douluos and Ultimate Douluos in Shrek Academy was enough to make one's scalp tingle!
This so-called Monster Academy trying to catch up was practically impossible!
Dai Tianling was not annoyed, but rather smiled and said, "I am naturally aware of that, it's merely an attempt!"
If the Monster Academy could achieve remarkable results, he would even utilize the empire's resources to help it quickly develop and provide top talent for the Xingluo Empire!
Xu Sheng interjected abruptly, "Your Majesty, the students of the Monster Academy are quite strong, and would also be considered geniuses within Shrek Academy!"
"But... that's only compared to the outer courtyard!"
In front of the once inner court, this so-called Monster Academy was nothing more than a joke!
He didn't mean to mock, he was simply stating facts...
Dai Tianling's profound gaze flashed with shrewdness, disregarding the previous remark...
He said meaningfully, "Elder Xu, since you are also aware of the Monster Academy's strength, how about making a bet with me?"
For Yun'er, even resorting to these means, he was willing to go all in!
Xu Sheng, sensing the conspiracy between the lines, nonetheless responded calmly, "Alright, I just don't know how Your Majesty wishes to gamble? On what?"
Dai Tianling propped his chin, feigning deep thought, then spoke, "Let's bet on whether Shrek Academy or Monster Academy will win the championship of the exchange competition."
"If I win, I would like Elder Xu to become Yun'er's teacher for a period of three years! If Elder Xu wins, you may propose a condition that I can accept!"
Xu Sheng's dark eyes narrowed, "So that's your real intention, to have me become Dai Yun'er's teacher."
Mu Ye, standing beside, also sharply contracted his pupils upon hearing Dai Tianling's words...
To have Elder Xu become Dai Yun'er's teacher for three years, Dai Tianling's demand was indeed substantial!
And the promise he offered Xu Sheng was merely to agree to a request within his acceptable range!
Clearly, the wager was not at all equitable!
Seeing their reactions, Dai Tianling asked unhurriedly, "Elder Xu, what say you?"
Xu Sheng replied promptly, "Fine, since it's a bet proposed by Your Majesty, I accept!"
Mu Ye, coughing softly, said, "Cough cough... Elder Xu, I think you should consider it carefully, don't forget you are an Elder of the Sea God's Pavilion!"
He felt it necessary to remind him, lest Elder Xu regret his decision when it was too late...
Xu Sheng revealed a smile to him, "That's okay, I have great confidence in our Shrek Academy's team!"
