Chapter 95: Three Girls with Fluttering Hearts and the Inwardly Screaming Flander [Double Release]_1

The Shrek restaurant was deathly silent at this moment.

Luo Yu just sat there quietly.

Even though he didn't say a word, that stunningly beautiful face and otherworldly temperament alone were enough to draw everyone's attention.

The Zhu Zhuqing Sisters and Xiaowu, their cheeks flushed, a hint of spring in their gazes, and eyes brimming with surprise, felt their hearts pounding incessantly, shyly looking at Luo Yu.

The girls already had a great fondness for Luo Yu, even to the extent of pledging themselves to him, having developed true feelings.

Discovering the shocking identity that the man had hidden was terrifying enough, but to have such a dashing and heroic bearing naturally sent their hearts fluttering to an extent that they found hard to extricate themselves from.

This was even more thrilling than a gold mountain suddenly falling from the sky.

After all, this was the man to whom they were willing to entrust their lives.

Especially since Flander had just been boasting about Luo Yu's exploits for quite a while, leaving a deep impression on the Zhu Zhuqing Sisters and Xiaowu.

Zhao Wuji's jaw had already dropped in shock; he had expected that this young man who suddenly joined the academy had something impressive up his sleeve, but he hadn't anticipated it to be this tremendous.

Flander was completely dumbfounded by now, his face alternating between red and white.

It can't be true, can it? Is it a fake? How could it be such a coincidence?

He'd just spent half the day boasting about this genius.

And it turns out the person's been sitting right in front of him all along.

Quietly watching him show off?

Flander's burly frame shuddered, and he felt like covering his face and running away.

If he wasn't mistaken, he had just condescendingly and patronizingly appraised the other man, hadn't he?

If he wasn't mistaken, he had also confidently claimed that he understood that peerless genius better than Luo Yu, right?

Hadn't he just said that it's your honor to join Shrek??

Damnit!

How did he have the audacity to say that?

He had no doubt that if only a whisper of Luo Yu being at Shrek leaked out, the academy's doors would be battered down the next day by swarming top-tier forces.

They would either try to assassinate or frantically recruit him.

Flander couldn't help but wail internally; this was as humiliating as it gets—how could he face anyone after this? His dignity was gone.

He looked tentatively at Luo Yu; even with his chaotic emotions, he couldn't help but sigh.

What a handsome and dashing young man; even as a Soul Sage in his seventies, he felt ashamed in front of him.

Logically, Flander's heart should have been overjoyed.

After all, such a talented person had appeared in his academy.

He had the chance to become his student.

He had fantasized about it, but now that Luo Yu was really here, he felt uneasy.

An insecure feeling lingered in his heart.

Just this small broken village he presided over, the little funding of his school, his insignificant cultivation level.

Teaching such a talent? Was he worthy?

Sorry, but I'm not.

Flander wouldn't live in a dream; he could see the reality clearly.

Should Luo Yu wish it, with a mere wave of his hand, he could probably attract a bunch of Titled Douluo willing to instruct him.

What was he as a Soul Sage?

He slouched his once straight posture, his previous dignified principal's attitude vanished, devoid of any pretense, and even showed a fawning and flattering stance.

"That... would you permit me, in my overstep, to address you as Young Master Luo Yu?"

"I was simply blind earlier, pardon my folly, and please don't take it to heart," Flander said.

A charming smile played at the corners of Luo Yu's mouth.

The surrounding women felt even more dizzy with fluttering hearts.

He chuckled, "It doesn't matter. Why would I blame you when you praised me with such effort?"

With those words, Flander turned even more embarrassingly red, cursing the fact his Martial Soul wasn't a Four-eyed Ground Mouse instead of a Four-eyed Cat Eagle; then he could have quickly dug a hole to bury himself.

Flander was clearly uncomfortable now.

"May I know why Young Master Luo Yu has graced our Shrek with his presence?"

Luo Yu said, nonplussed, "To study, what else?"

"To... study?"

Flander's eyes bulged, and he swallowed hard.

You, a supreme being, chose our small broken place over so many better ones?

Flander was actually a man of considerable pride and confidence, otherwise, he could not have put forth the motto that Shrek only accepted monsters, but the level of Luo Yu's talent truly frightened him.

"Weren't you doing well in Martial Soul Hall?"

Luo Yu waved his hand, shaking his head, "Martial Soul Hall? What's good there? The goddess doesn't get serious and slipped me drugs; the Empress is always busy with state affairs and has no time for me. It's better to just go out and wander around."

"Hiss!"

Flander and Zhao Wuji were both left stunned.

We buy that you are a genius, but aren't you blowing this a little out of proportion?

Are you treating us like we've never seen the world, telling fairy tales here?

The Empress accompanies you? The goddess is drugging you?

How could that be possible!

What kind of divine existence would you be to willingly leave that situation behind?

A Wu bit her lip nearby, holding back; she actually wanted to stand up as a witness.

Everything this man said was true, and he was even downplaying it; he had indeed completely claimed the Empress for himself.

Struggling to suppress the astonishment in his heart, Flander asked, "Are you really here to study at our place?"

"Why, is that not allowed?" Luo Yu asked, puzzled, "Doesn't Shrek claim to specialize in taking in monsters?"

Flander and Zhao Wuji didn't want to speak anymore.

Even monsters should have a limit, right?

They had thought attracting students with Innate full soul power was the pinnacle of their happiness and satisfaction.

But now Luo Yu, a king-level talent, wanted to join.

They really wanted to say they couldn't afford him...

Testing the waters, Flander said, "Young friend, considering our humble Shrek, maybe... you might want to consider a larger power?"

Zhu Zhuyun couldn't help but object on the spot, snorting, "What do you mean by that? Are you looking down on my Brother Yu?"
