Black World, Spirit City.
"The youngest Elder of our Spirit Hall is a graduate of this Shrek Academy?"
Upon hearing Dai Mubai's introduction of Shrek Academy's graduates in the comparison video, Bibi Dong's elegant and beautiful face couldn't help but show a deep frown.
Beside her, Chrysanthemum DouluoYue Guan was even more enraged, shouting in his effeminate voice.
"This is simply preposterous!"
"In our Spirit Hall, a Spirit Master must reach the Titled Douluo level to be eligible for the rank of Elder."
"Currently, the youngest Elder in our Spirit Hall is the Ninth Elder, Xuanjian, who is a direct descendant of our Spirit Hall's core lineage. When did we ever have a connection with this Shrek Academy?"
"Calling them Shrek Academy's most outstanding graduates is nothing but a pack of lies and utter nonsense!"
After his angry outburst...
Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately knelt on one knee before Bibi Dong, cupped his fists, and petitioned with indignation.
"His Holiness the Pope, I humbly request to send someone to teach this Shrek Academy a harsh lesson!"
"This Shrek Academy actually dares to spread rumors about our Spirit City Elders; they truly have the gall of a bear and the heart of a leopard!"
"This act must not be pardoned lightly!"
However, Bibi Dong's brows remained tightly knit. After a long silence, her vermillion lips parted slightly as she said coldly,
"This comparison video hasn't finished playing yet. Let's wait and see for now."
Because her heart still remained devoted to Yu Xiaogang...
Bibi Dong naturally had some understanding of Yu Xiaogang's subsequent experiences after he left Spirit City.
She knew that Flender was Yu Xiaogang's sworn brother.
For the sake of Yu Xiaogang, Bibi Dong was not very willing to punish Flender and Shrek Academy over such a trivial matter.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"This Shrek Academy is simply too outrageous!"
Although Bone Douluo Gu Rong had some understanding of Shrek Academy because Ning Rongrong had joined it, he only knew that Shrek Academy was known as an 'Academy of Monsters'.
But as for exactly how it was a 'monster' academy, he wasn't entirely clear.
But this time, through the introduction of Shrek Academy's recruitment and graduation requirements by Dai Mubai in the comparison video, Bone Douluo was simply shocked and left speechless.
This Shrek Academy clearly didn't rank among the top in the continent in terms of either cultivation facilities or teaching staff.
Yet its recruitment requirements were higher than Spirit Hall's, and its graduation requirements were incredibly harsh, actually requiring students to risk their lives to hunt for their fourth spirit ring on their own.
The level of danger could be said to be maxed out!
It could be seen from the fact that Shrek Academy had admitted a total of sixty-two students, but only fourteen had graduated.
This mortality rate was likely close to eighty percent!
Thinking of this, Bone Douluo Gu Rong's heart was practically bleeding.
"With Shrek Academy's recruitment and graduation requirements being so harsh, if the students they recruited could all join our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, we might be able to find some talents with the potential to break through to Titled Douluo..."
But beside him, Sword Douluo's sword-like brows furrowed as he spoke in a cold voice.
"Sect Master, since Shrek Academy's graduation requirements are so harsh, what about Rongrong's side..."
In response, Ning Fengzhi rubbed the jade cane in his hand. A cold smile appeared on his gentle and refined face as he said calmly,
"Uncle Sword, don't worry!"
"That Flender is a smart man; he wouldn't dare!"
"For those commoner geniuses who join Shrek Academy, Flender might dare to play that game of making them go to the Star Dou Great Forest alone to hunt for their fourth spirit ring."
"But if he dares to do that to Rongrong..."
"If Rongrong loses even a single hair, I will have the heads of every teacher in Shrek Academy!"
[Upon hearing Dai Mubai's introduction of Shrek Academy's enrollment and graduation requirements,]
[Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the others all seemed to be shocked.]
[After a long while, Tang San finally smiled and said, "I'm very fortunate to be able to come here!"]
[At this time, Dai Mubai also gave a bitter smile, further explaining that because Shrek Academy wanted to remain independent from all factions and refused any external investment, its current operational status was very problematic.]
[After leading Tang San and the others all the way to a large training ground,]
[They saw a sturdy-looking middle-aged man in his fifties lying on a lounge chair, wearing a straw hat on his head and dozing off.]
[Dai Mubai stepped forward to wake this Teacher Zhao, stating that some students had reached the fourth stage.]
[After sitting up, this Teacher Zhao discovered Tang San and the others. He was quite surprised and satisfied, and actually wanted to personally step in to conduct a practical combat assessment for them.]
[Hearing this, Dai Mubai was immediately stunned and wanted to stop him.]
[But Teacher Zhao glared at him and insisted on his way, telling Dai Mubai to give Tang San and the others his information. The assessment would begin in the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn.]
[After speaking, Teacher Zhao took out a stick of incense, lit it, and stuck it into the ground. He then lay back down on the lounge chair to continue his rest.]
[Helpless, Dai Mubai called Tang San and the others over to introduce Teacher Zhao's background to everyone.]
[It turned out this Teacher Zhao was actually the once-famous Fudo MyooZhao Wuji of the Spirit Master world. His Spirit was the Vigorous Vajra Bear, and he was currently a level seventy-six Spirit Saint.]
[Learning of Zhao Wuji's cultivation and identity, everyone gasped in shock.]
[Afterward, led by Tang San, everyone began to introduce themselves, preparing to formulate a combat tactic and plan against Zhao Wuji.]
Black World, Heaven Water Academy.
"This Shrek Academy actually has a level seventy-six Spirit Saint? Its teaching staff seems quite strong!"
"Plus, with those recruitment and graduation requirements that only take in monsters, no wonder it's called the Academy of Monsters!"
"It does seem a bit impressive!"
Because she wasn't very bright, Shui Yueer couldn't help but marvel as the comparison video played to this point.
However, Shui Binger shook her head and spoke.
"No! This Shrek Academy is actually entirely a fraud academy that disregards human life!"
"Sister, why do you say that?"
Shui Yueer was stunned and asked in great confusion.
"It's a very simple logic."
"Shrek Academy's recruitment and graduation requirements for students are indeed very high!"
"On the surface, this seems to have built its reputation as an Academy of Monsters, but rights and obligations are always two sides of the same coin."
"This Shrek Academy has recruited such outstanding geniuses, but can it actually train these geniuses well?"
Shui Binger said calmly.
"Shrek Academy's teaching staff might be decent, but it definitely doesn't exceed our Five Elements Academy."
"But besides that, it has absolutely no achievements to speak of in terms of cultivation facilities."
"Moreover, Shrek Academy has admitted a total of sixty-two students, but only fourteen graduated. One wonders how many geniuses died on the way to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for their fourth spirit ring."
"But if these geniuses had joined our Five Elements Academy, they would definitely not be in mortal danger, and instead, their future achievements might even be higher!"
At this point, a look of mockery appeared on Shui Binger's gentle and beautiful face as she spoke.
"This Shrek Academy appears to be an Academy of Monsters."
"But in reality, it's just a fraud academy that holds up this banner, fabricates its own 'monster' reputation, uses deceptive means to recruit true monster-level students, and uses the bones of these monster students to satisfy its own selfish desires!"
"Even if these monster students hadn't joined Shrek Academy, they would still be monsters in the future!"
"But without these monster students, Shrek Academy is nothing!"
"This point alone is enough to explain everything!"
The chicken before the egg, or the egg before the chicken.
One must not get them mixed up!
