"Headmaster Flender, are you all alright?"
Qin Ming, ever the loyal hound of Shrek, completely ignored Xue Beng's broken leg. A useless prince was nothing compared to the sacred Shrek Academy in his eyes.
"Hey, we're fine. But it's all thanks to you, kid. Otherwise, we wouldn't know how much effort it would have taken to get into Heaven Dou Academy."
Flender waved his hand dismissively. They hadn't suffered any losses. He was, however, a little worried about Xue Beng making trouble since the prince's leg was broken. He asked cautiously, "That kid is, after all, a prince. Won't we get into trouble doing this?"
"No, teachers, you probably don't know that Prince Xue Beng is a complete playboy. Even the Heaven Dou Emperor couldn't be bothered to manage him and has basically given up on him. Besides a few servants, he doesn't even have a single person he can rely on. He spends all his days in brothels, listening to music."
Qin Ming said this without a care in the world. Xue Beng was a useless prince. But in exchange for the enormous power of Shrek Academy, Xueye would certainly choose Shrek, wouldn't he?
"Hahaha, that's true. After all, my Zhao Wuji's title of Immovable Ming King is widely feared."
Zhao Wuji laughed heartily, and Qin Ming also played along, flattering Zhao Wuji and making him beam with joy.
"I've already reported to the academy's management. Someone will come to receive you, Headmaster, shortly."
Qin Ming led Flender and the others to the VIP room to rest. The luxurious scene left the Shrek Academy group stunned.
However, at this moment, Xue Beng found Emperor Xueye, who was having a private conversation with Xue Qinghe.
"Father, you must stand up for your son!"
Xue Beng was crying, with tears and snot flowing, as if he wanted to cry out all the tears he had in his life. He opened his arms to hug Xueye and pour out his grievances.
"What trouble have you gotten into this time, you rascal?"
Emperor Xueye's face darkened as he looked at Xue Beng running over. This unfilial son coming to him meant trouble. If it weren't for the fact he was his own flesh and blood, he would have thrown him out long ago.
"Yes, Fourth Brother, don't rush. Speak slowly. Elder Brother will make the decision for you."
Xue Qinghe actually had some fondness for this Xue Beng. He posed no threat, had no backing, and all he did was ask for money and frequent brothels. His days were even more joyful than Xue Ye's, and he was no threat at all.
"It was a group from something called Shrek Academy..."
Xue Beng tearfully recounted the events, embellishing them as he went. Finally, he added, "Right, the fat guy who hit me also said our family's pathetic swan wasn't worthy of being royalty and that his noble Phoenix Martial Soul should be the one."
This was of course Xue Beng's attempt to provoke Xue Ye, seeing that Xue Ye didn't seem very angry. And it worked.
"How dare they!"
Xue Ye's expression turned furious. They dared to insult the imperial family's Martial Soul.
What he valued most at the moment wasn't just strength, but also the majesty of the imperial family. It was bad enough that those kingdoms were acting against him, but now, right under his nose, they were beating his son. Where would the imperial family's face be? Would any Tom, Dick, or Harry now come and trample on them?
And it happened at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. What kind of place was the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? It was a place he, the Emperor, had personally established; the words on the gate were even written by him.
Today, they dared to attack Xue Beng within the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, relying on two Soul Sages. Tomorrow, would they dare to come to the palace and kick him off the throne?
The Heaven Dou Empire's royal authority was already insignificant, and now it was being challenged by unknown individuals. This infuriated the petty Emperor Xueye on the spot.
"Qinghe, go and mobilize the troops. Immediately arrest those people from Shrek and interrogate them."
In his opinion, even if Ma Hongjun hadn't said those words, they had already damaged the royal dignity. He must use severe punishment to restore it.
"Yes, Father."
Receiving the order, Xue Qinghe slowly stood up, looked at Xue Beng, and said, "Come with me, Fourth Brother. Let me see which upstart academy dares to offend the royal family's dignity."
As Xue Qinghe mobilized three thousand Ironclad Guards and marched towards the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he first sent a message through his Martial Soul to the academy's three Teaching Seats, to suppress Shrek Academy's arrogance.
At this moment, Qin Ming also excitedly walked into the VIP room and said to Teacher Flender: "Principal, the three Teaching Seats have agreed to meet with us, and His Highness the Crown Prince will also arrive soon."
"Great, you've worked hard, Qin Ming."
Flender looked at Qin Ming with satisfaction and praised him a few words, but didn't say anything more. As for rewards, what rewards were needed? His praise was enough.
Zhao Wuji also patted Qin Ming's shoulder with his rough hand, praising, "Good job, kid, you're worthy of being from Shrek."
"Teacher Zhao, you flatter me. Qin Ming is a person of Shrek, alive or dead."
Qin Ming was a little embarrassed by everyone's enthusiasm and scratched his head, speaking firmly.
"Go see the three committee members in the council chamber first. I believe they will be very pleased that you teachers have joined Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"Hey, we're not joining Heaven Dou Royal Academy. We're temporarily entering Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but we need to keep the name of Shrek Academy. The future name will also be named after Shrek."
Flender adjusted his round glasses and retorted, "Shrek Academy is my life's work. How could I just casually merge it with another academy?"
"Yes, this disciple misspoke. Teacher, and fellow junior brothers, please follow me."
Qin Ming realized he'd said the wrong thing, immediately offered a few apologetic laughs, and walked ahead to lead the way for Shrek Academy.
They arrived behind Heaven Dou Royal Academy, in front of a delicate small pavilion primarily white in color.
"This is the Council Hall. Don't underestimate it, Principal. The building materials were all carefully selected and can withstand attacks from a Soul Douluo."
"As expected of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, truly wealthy."
Flender was somewhat surprised and touched the wall of the Council Hall. He discovered that the wall could disperse the Soul Power in a Soul Power attack, channeling it underground to achieve the purpose of deflecting the force.
Qin Ming introduced as he slowly walked into the Council Hall. They went to the second floor, and when he opened the door, he suddenly found that there were more than just three Teaching Seats sitting in the three highest seats.
On the five chairs to the left and right of the three highest seats sat the heads of various departments, all of whom turned to look at the people from Shrek Academy as the doors were pushed open.
"Teaching Seats, Directors, what are you doing?"
Qin Ming felt his scalp tingle as he looked at the scene before him. They were surrounded by a group of departmental heads, in a low position, and it looked like they didn't come with good intentions.
The surrounding directors looked down at the people from Shrek Academy with scrutinizing gazes. Their gazes at Qin Ming were rather complex, with some resentment, regret, anger, and more confusion.
Why would Qin Ming give up his future for this Shrek Academy when he had already been nurtured and valued by Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and was destined to become a Teaching Seat?
"You, a senior instructor, are not in a position to speak here."
The lead director, Meng Shenji, interrupted Qin Ming's words and said to the people from Shrek Academy below with a cold tone, "Are you the ones who want to merge into our Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
