Chapter 62: Borrowing a Chicken to Hatch an Egg
Chapter 62: Borrowing a Chicken to Hatch an Egg
"Teacher, is this really appropriate for us?" Looking at the majestic and grandiose Heavenly Battle College, Tang San couldn't help but question his decision.
It had been almost a month since the official start of the school year at Heavenly Battle College, and Tang San had been waiting in Sokoto City all this time for his teacher to arrive.
During this period, his soul power level had reached the impressive rank of thirty.
Even though his soul power met the requirements, he had not been able to break through to the next level because he lacked an elder to guide him in hunting for his third soul ring.
Finally, his persistence in waiting had paid off, and his teacher had arrived.
Initially, Tang San had hoped that his teacher would understand the difference between Shrek Academy and Heavenly Battle College. To that end, he had even presented his admission letter to his teacher.
However, he never expected his teacher to present him with such a huge dilemma!
"What's inappropriate about it? With my reputation as the top theorist on the continent, backed by three Soul Saints and three genius students, I am doing them a favor by gracing this newly established college with my presence. It's no exaggeration to say that back in the day, even the current Pope would address me as 'Master' when he saw me." His teacher's response left Tang San secretly astonished.
As a descendant of the Tang Clan, Tang San possessed keen observational skills, especially when it came to subtle details. From his teacher's micro-expressions, he could tell that he was not lying!
Witnessing this, Tang San's respect for his mysterious teacher grew.
As they reached the college entrance, Yu Xiaogang turned to look at Flender and the others behind him.
"Flender, you were indeed in the wrong regarding that student. You knew he was a Fallen Angel yet you continued to nurture and protect him. The young man's actions were a bit extreme, but as elders, we should be more magnanimous towards our juniors. For the sake of the children's future, if you see that person later, you must not act on impulse." Yu Xiaogang reminded them solemnly.
Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Flender merely pushed up his glasses and gently bumped his shoulder against Zhao Wuji beside him.
"Old Zhao, these words aren't just for me. Remember to rein in your stubborn temper later."
Zhao Wuji let out a soft hmph at Flender's words, then lightly touched Shao Xin's arm.
"Shao Xin, this concerns you too. Did you hear that?"
Shao Xin, who was in the middle of discussing matters with Oscar, pouted at the reminder.
He had long wanted to bring Oscar to Heavenly Battle College. As a food-type soul master with innate full soul power, Oscar had no future at Shrek Academy.
However, Oscar was reluctant to leave Shrek Academy, which had nurtured and educated him, and so they had delayed the decision until now.
If it weren't for the opportunity to witness the growth of a food-type soul master with innate full soul power, if food-type soul masters weren't lacking in self-protection abilities, and if it weren't for the chance to freeload off Flender and the others' combat power, he would have jumped ship long ago. Who would willingly stay at Shrek Academy?
"Remember, our purpose here is simple: to gain access to Heavenly Battle College's mimicry cultivation field for our students. Our goal is to secure the qualification for our students to train in that cultivation field. During this process, we must remain united. Once our students have grown strong enough, we will then part ways with Heavenly Battle College." Yu Xiaogang looked at the group seriously, emphasizing their mission.
His sole purpose for coming to Heavenly Battle College was to borrow their mimicry cultivation field for Shrek Academy's students to train in. He wanted Heavenly Battle College to help nurture their students, and he anticipated encountering some resistance along the way. Hence, it was crucial for them to present a united front and protect their students at all costs!
Flender and the others nodded in agreement.
Satisfied with their response, Yu Xiaogang nodded and led the group toward the gatekeeper.
The gatekeeper, upon noticing the group approaching, straightened his posture unconsciously.
"Greetings. We are teachers from Shrek Academy, and we are here to offer our services as instructors at your esteemed Heavenly Battle College. Please inform your dean of our arrival. We won't take no for an answer." Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of calm confidence.
The gatekeeper nodded slightly at their introduction and then extended his hand.
"Since you wish to become teachers at Heavenly Battle College, I assume you are familiar with our rules."
Seeing the guard's outstretched hand, Yu Xiaogang was taken aback for a moment before furrowing his brows in displeasure.
"I already said that we are here to apply for teaching positions. What do you mean by this?"
The gatekeeper slowly lowered his hand and gave Yu Xiaogang a look that clearly said he thought the man was an idiot.
Seeing this action from the gatekeeper, Yu Xiaogang frowned, and Flender quickly stepped forward, pulling Yu Xiaogang behind him.
Looking at the gatekeeper, Flender gave him a knowing look.
"I understand, I understand. You need a toll fee to enter, right?"
As he said this, Flender took out a bag and mysteriously handed it to the gatekeeper.
"You know the rules, yet you still cause trouble. This is a one-time warning!"
The gatekeeper opened the bag, and a pile of shiny silver coins spilled out.
He counted out a group and placed them directly into the coin slot next to the gate, but as soon as he put down these coins, the gatekeeper suddenly realized something and cursed loudly.
He then emptied the rest of the coins from the bag, which only added to his fury!
"Motherfcker, these are Silver Soul Coins! Brothers, we have uninvited guests causing trouble at Heaven Fighting College!"
The gatekeeper yelled behind him and simultaneously pulled the long rope next to him.
In an instant, the clear sound of a bell rang out.
A large group of well-equipped soldiers poured out from both sides of the gate, seemingly having been on high alert for a long time.
Seeing this formation, Flender, who had just been annoyed by the guard for dropping his tip, also sensed that something was amiss. This situation might not be as simple as the other party being unreasonable.
"Little Gang, what are the rules of this Heaven Fighting College?"
Yu Xiaogang's first reaction to seeing the assembled army was that it was unusual for a college to have such a military presence.
However, he soon thought of something: Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of Heaven Dou, was the vice-principal here.
With a prince in residence, it made sense for there to be a military presence!
"Little San, wasn't it the principal of Heaven Fighting College who invited you here? Didn't he mention any rules?"
Hearing his teacher's question, Tang San pursed his lips and then reluctantly spoke up.
"Teacher, I told you early on that all we need is that admission letter to enter the college."
He had wanted to say this earlier, but his teacher had already rushed forward, and Principal Flender had tried to bribe the gatekeeper before him.
While this might be a normal practice elsewhere, why was it not working here? And now, an army had appeared.
"Afraid of what? They're just a bunch of miscellaneous soldiers. At worst, we'll force our way in with our strength!"
Zhao Wuji directly released his martial soul and displayed his seven soul rings to everyone.
Seeing Zhao Wuji's seven soul rings, the gatekeeper hesitated for a moment before taking out a signal gun and firing it without hesitation.
A piercing whistle rang out in the sky above Heaven Fighting College, causing all the teachers who had been instructing students to pause in surprise.
Then, their faces lit up with the kind of wild joy that employees feel when their boss gives them a raise.
The teachers rushed out of their classrooms and headed toward the college gate.
Moreover, two powerful auras emerged from the depths of the college.
Zhao Wuji's expression changed as he sensed the two auras from within the college.
Soul Douluos, there were actually two Soul Douluos in this college!
Damn it, they were already Soul Douluos, why were they still hanging around in a college! And why were there two of them!
That terrifying woman had claimed to be from Heaven Fighting College, but Zhao Wuji didn't believe for a second that she would stay here.
This was the real reason he had dared to reveal his martial soul, but now, that woman hadn't left! Not only had she not left, but there was also another Soul Douluo in the college! This was not the intelligence they had received!
"Who dares to cause trouble at Heaven Fighting College?"
An authoritative voice, laced with anger, rang out from within the college, as an elderly man with a dignified demeanor glared at the unfamiliar group at the gate and shouted.
Motherfcker, a few years ago, I had just come to Heaven Dou City to check on the Crown Prince's life. Then, I was tricked by that woman into recognizing a little brat as my "master."
This was already humiliating enough for a Royal Tutor. Now, while I'm in charge of the college, some people dare to come and cause trouble!
They don't put me in their eyes at all!
"Well, well, if it isn't the folks from Shrek Academy?"
A charming and alluring voice rang out simultaneously in the sky above Heaven Fighting College.
Hearing this voice, the Royal Attendant coldly harrumphed, but it also helped him identify the identities of the troublemakers.
