Chapter 58: A Grateful Person

Next, Gu Yi went through the remaining issues with the others. Perhaps geniuses had more twisted minds than ordinary people.

Next, he planned to take Shrek Academy to Heaven Dou City.

Although Shrek Academy was a regular academy, it still didn't have the qualification to participate in the continent-wide Advanced Spirit Master Competition. After all, Shrek was not well-known, and they didn't have the opportunity to participate in such a grand event.

For his plan to continue, they had to participate in this event.

There were three options before him: one was to have Dugu Bo act as a recommender and directly participate in the competition under the name of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

The second was to seize the academy established by Liu Erlong, as in the original work, and rename it Shrek Academy.

The third was to obtain the qualification to participate in the competition under the name of Shrek.

Actually, in the end, Gu Yi would only choose the third option. Even if the first option led to becoming champions in the future, the fame wouldn't be with them; it would be taken by Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. It wasn't that he cared about fame, but he wanted to spread his teachings throughout the world, and this was necessary.

As for the second option, he didn't want to choose it either. The reason Liu Erlong renamed the academy she painstakingly built to Shrek Academy was all because of the relationship between Liu Erlong, Flender and Yu Xiaogang. If that were the case, many things wouldn't be so simple and pure.

Moreover, with his own strength, obtaining a qualification to participate in the competition was quite easy. After all, it was just a qualification from an advanced spirit master academy, something even Flender could handle, albeit a bit troublesome. Now that Flender had the strength of a Spirit Douluo, even if he didn't act, he could easily obtain the qualification.

Besides, Gu Yi believed Flender wouldn't refuse, after all, there was still a woman in Heaven Dou City he longed to see. But it was just out of reach, having suppressed his feelings for more than ten years.

In fact, the entire Douluo Continent was a tragedy, with no one's fate being good. Originally, Bibi Dong, who had a romantic mind, was defiled by her master in pursuit of love and even forced to bear a child. Later, she was chosen by the Rakshasa God, a deity wielding evil power, as the successor. Even if evil energy was placed on an ordinary person, they might not be able to control it at will, let alone someone like Bibi Dong who had long since started on the path to extremism.

Tragedy was destined.

Gu Yi soon found Flender. This kind of thing needed the dean to act. After all, he was just a small vice-dean.

"Go to Heaven Dou City?"

"Yes, with our current strength, we can naturally become an advanced spirit master academy. But to become an advanced spirit master academy, the dean needs to go to Heaven Dou City to handle the paperwork."

Spirit Master Academies were not something anyone could establish, after all, spirit masters were very important to the Heaven Dou Empire, especially high-level spirit masters.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Flender became more and more confused about what Gu Yi wanted to do.

Not only did he befriend the Poison Douluo, but his strength could also rival Titled Douluos. Every few months, he would correspond with someone. And sometimes he would secretly leave the academy for a few days, during which no one knew where he had gone. But Flender didn't ask.

"Of course, it's to make Shrek Academy legendary," Gu Yi knew that Flender, his mentor and adopted father, life long wish was to promote Shrek Academy and make it a prestigious institution. That's why he set such strict requirements.

"And, Dean, don't you want to go see that person?" Flender sighed. Even if he saw her, what's the use? It was impossible for him, after all. Among the three of them, someone would always be left behind.

But Gu Yi was right, it was time to go see Long'er again.

Over the years, although he hadn't been back to Heaven Dou City, he still knew some information about her. Now that Xiaogang had also appeared, he couldn't let Long'er continue to lament behind like a trapped woman in the academy.

"I... will go." Flender closed his eyes and made this difficult decision. For the sake of Liu Erlong's well-being, he would do anything.

"Dean, some things are in your own hands. Don't do something you'll regret for the rest of your life," Gu Yi really didn't want to see Flender like this, and besides, did Yu Xiaogang deserve to have Liu Erlong again?

A coward who ran away from his own marriage in public, he didn't know why he was so attractive. Gu Yi really couldn't understand. Was it because this world was full of boors and they had never seen a literate man? So both women still had feelings for Yu Xiaogang.

At least he hadn't seen anything particularly outstanding about Yu Xiaogang yet.

Flender's steps paused as he walked outside, showing no reaction as he walked outside again, but he looked somewhat desolate.

Regret for a lifetime? How long could he regret in this life? Flender knew his talent. Even with the help of Gu Yi's technique, becoming a Titled Douluo was still out of reach.

Gu Yi looked at the dean walking out of the academy, feeling somewhat frustrated. Brotherly affection had bound his thoughts. Nine times out of ten things go wrong in the world, but you can't tell people anything. Sometimes, you have to quietly endure pain in the darkness.

.....

Gu Yi came to a mountain village several hundred miles away from Suotuo City without anyone knowing.

Using his flying ability, he landed directly on a large open space in the center of the village. His arrival quickly attracted the attention of the people in the village, and in no time, everyone in the village gathered in this large open space.

"Benefactor." The most respected elder in the village walked out. With white hair and age spots on his face and hands, but he didn't lean on a cane. He immediately wanted to kneel in front of Gu Yi.

"Old Lin, you'll shorten my life like this." Gu Yi hurried forward and helped Old Lin, not letting him kneel.

"I've been foolish. Girls, come and meet our great benefactor." Old Lin turned around and shouted to the women and children behind him, with great vigor.

"Meet the benefactor." The entire village surrounded the large open space, enclosing Gu Yi within it, as if rehearsed, they all knelt down. Gu Yi felt helpless. He had said it countless times, but these people were still like this.

"Benefactor, these are all from our hearts. Your kindness to our Lin family village is beyond measure." Old Lin looked at Gu Yi with tears in his eyes. This person not only rescued them like a god but also gave them the power to protect themselves.
