Chapter 4 Flanders' Awkward Moment
"The first point is to control the evil fire. It will be difficult for the evil fire to continue to affect Hong Jun, but how to control it is still up for discussion."
"The second method is to purify the bloodline, using external force to remove the evil energy from the bloodline, so that Hongjun can become a true fire phoenix."
"This kind of soul ring can absorb more of the Phoenix's bloodline, or you can take rare and precious herbs that can purify your bloodline."
Xie Mo told the two of them the methods he had come up with. In the future, he might be able to find other methods with the power of Piggy Hero, but for now, he could only think of these two points. He was just an ordinary person.
"Control, purification..."
Flander chewed on those two words, wrinkles forming on his forehead. The words were simple, but putting them into practice was not easy. Even the simplest Phoenix Bloodline Soul Beast was rarely seen on ordinary days.
"I wonder where my good brother is. Otherwise, I might be able to ask him what rare and precious herbs would be useful to Hongjun."
Flander murmured, his good brother came from a prominent family, was knowledgeable and experienced, and was hailed as a master in the world of soul masters. He might be able to come up with a method that would be useful to his disciple.
Xie Mo's expression was strange. Flander was still talking about Yu Xiaogang. Speaking of which, that guy was really strong. He could fool the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, deceive his cousin, and even make his good brother remember him fondly. Now, their strength is at least that of a Soul Saint, while he himself is only a Great Soul Master. Xie Mo believed that he could not do that.
Despite the disdain, they are undeniably powerful, almost on par with CX.
"Brother Mo, I can't stay like this forever, can I?"
Ma Hongjun looked at Xie Mo with a bitter face; it was really unbearable to keep it bottled up like this.
"There's no way around it. You can't have everything. Since you have a mutated martial soul and top-tier talent, you have to bear the consequences."
Xie Mo shrugged. Ma Hongjun's talent was something many people could only dream of. As for the price, it was nothing more than some hardships on the way to growth.
"Don't worry, if you ever feel like letting loose in the future, I'll take you for a couple of runs around the village and you'll behave."
Ma Hongjun subconsciously shivered in the water, as if he felt a strange chill. Although he had been obediently running with Xie Mo, he actually didn't like running. Running two laps would really kill him.
After a while, Ma Hongjun's inner fire finally subsided. He changed his clothes and walked out of the house with the two others. Several teachers and students from Shrek Academy were still chatting outside.
"Ahem, let me formally introduce you all. This is my disciple, Ma Hongjun."
Flander interrupted the crowd, patted the shy Ma Hongjun, and gestured for him to come forward.
"Hello everyone, my name is Ma Hongjun, my martial soul is the Evil Fire Phoenix, and my innate soul power is level nine."
Everyone exclaimed in surprise, "A mutated phoenix! No wonder Flander values it so much. It might even become the teacher of a titled Douluo in the future!"
"And this, Xie Mo, I was the first to accompany you to obtain the spirit ring."
Flander, without neglecting one thing, also welcomed Xie Mo's arrival to everyone.
"My name is Xie Mo, my martial spirit is Piggy Hero, and I have full innate soul power. I hope everyone will take good care of me."
Xie Mo introduced himself earnestly, because he knew that this group of middle-aged people would be his protectors for a considerable period of time. Don't underestimate Soul Emperors and Soul Saints; even when Flander went to the royal palace of the Barak Kingdom, the king treated him with utmost respect.
Everyone looked at Xie Mo with satisfaction. They had long been exposed to the harsh realities of the Soul Master world, so they knew that Xie Mo's Martial Soul was definitely not an ordinary pig. Moreover, their desires were not strong after they went into seclusion, and their innate full Soul Power had little to do with them. This kind of polite and untroubled child was a good child.
"Next, let me introduce you. This is Teacher Li Yusong, whose martial soul is the Dragon Pattern Staff, and he is a level 61 Soul Emperor. This is Teacher Shao Xin, whose martial soul is the Candy Bean, and he is a level 69 Soul Emperor..."
Flander introduced all the teachers in the academy. Putting aside the fact that these guys didn't teach and nurture students like regular teachers, the quality of Shrek Academy's teachers could still be ranked among the top ten on the continent.
"And this little guy, just like you, I dug him up from another village."
Flander was somewhat smug. That was a food-type innate full soul power, something he had never heard of before. Shao Xin, the food-type Soul Emperor, was almost always by Oscar's side.
"My name is Oscar, my martial soul is Sausage, and I have innate full soul power."
Oscar raised his head slightly. This unprecedented talent, coupled with his master's favor, did indeed make him somewhat arrogant. It was only the beatings he suffered as a child that made him suppress his pride.
"Alright, everyone has met now. From now on, you are all students of Shrek Academy. Don't embarrass us old folks when you're out and about."
Flander revealed a cunning smile. He had only intended to take on a disciple who had no connection to nobility and was of commoner origin like himself. Unexpectedly, he had received several geniuses as a reward.
Xie Mo secretly rolled his eyes. Then I'll go get a 100,000-year-old soul bone, or go to Dugu Bo's herb garden to pick some herbs. That shouldn't be considered embarrassing for you guys, right?
"Xie Mo, now that you've entered Shrek Academy, I won't charge you the registration fee. The tuition is one hundred gold soul coins per year, which I, the dean, will allow you to pay it off later when you have the money."
Flander adjusted his glasses, a cunning glint in his eyes. Two more mouths to feed, he thought, he could squeeze even more money out of them.
"Can I take Hongjun to join the Spirit Hall? Maybe then we can get our teacher a Title Douluo."
Xie Mo didn't expect Flander to be so stingy that he actually wanted to squeeze money out of him, even though joining the academy did require paying tuition.
Many teachers frowned. This was not very ethical of Mr. Fu. They were not happy about him making a living by ripping off new students.
"Ahem, well then, you'll have to pay for your meals from now on, but I'll cover your accommodation fees for free."
Flander was surprised that this guy knew about the Spirit Hall, and quickly changed the subject, even feeling that the newly accepted disciple was looking at him strangely.
"Dean, why is our academy called Shrek Academy?"
Xie Mo walked up to Flander, looked up at him with a serious expression. He had no money and had to find a way to get some from the miser.
"Shrek is a monster, and our academy is also called Monster Academy, which means that every student in our academy is a monster compared to students in other academies."
Flander was filled with pride; Shrek Academy was the culmination of his and his old comrades' efforts.
"Would you say Hongjun, Oscar, and I are monsters?"
Xie Mo continued to press for answers.
"Of course you count, otherwise why would I have taken you in?"
Flander didn't quite understand what Shemo meant.
"What are the admission requirements for monsters at other academies?"
Xie Mo stepped forward, almost in front of Flander's face, his eyes gleaming.
"This... ah..."
Flanders stammered, knowing full well what the other party's conditions were. Every year, people were practically fighting tooth and nail to compete for geniuses, but he didn't have any.
"Pfft!"
