In the end, Zhou Yi did not expel Huo Yuhao, but instead had someone send him for treatment.
The day's classes ended quickly.
Bai Zhou had dinner with Wang Dong in the evening, made sure Wang Dong was full, and then took Wang Dong to the Academic Affairs Office to find the Director of the Outer Courtyard's Martial Soul Department—Du Weilun.
"What? You want to change classes? Why?"
Du Weilun had been the Director of the Academic Affairs Office for so many years, but this was the first time he had heard such a request.
"Our Teacher is Zhou Yi. I feel her skill is limited and she's not suitable to teach me," Bai Zhou said honestly.
Of course, the main reason was that he didn't like acting like a dog.
In Zhou Yi's class, students were truly trained like dogs, completely without temper.
Even if Zhou Yi threw a bone and told you to fetch it, you had to obey.
Bai Zhou highly suspected that Huo Yuhao's strange hobby of liking to act like a dog was cultivated by Zhou Yi...
...
"Heh, limited skill? You're saying a Spirit Emperor has limited skill?" Du Weilun almost laughed in anger.
Although Zhou Yi had been complained about many times, it was always for other reasons. This was the first time someone had said her teaching skill was limited, which was interesting.
"Kid, you must not be awake, right? Shrek's Teachers are sought after by all academies outside. You're saying Shrek's Teachers have limited skill? What do you count as?" Other Teachers in the Academic Affairs Office immediately got upset when they heard someone say Shrek wasn't good.
"Although Zhou Yi is strict, the probability of her students advancing to the Inner Courtyard is the highest!" Some Teachers also spoke up for Zhou Yi.
When Bai Zhou heard this, he almost laughed. Other classes had 100 students, with 1 entering the Inner Courtyard, a 1% advancement rate.
Zhou Yi's class had fewer students because some were expelled, only 50 people. Similarly, 1 advanced, a 2% advancement rate. Plus a bit of luck and a higher proportion of geniuses among Zhou Yi's students, how could the advancement rate not be high?
"Oh, Teacher Zhou Yi's teaching method is so good, why isn't it implemented throughout the school? If all classes were like this, wouldn't the probability of advancing to the Inner Courtyard double?" Bai Zhou glanced at the Teacher who spoke, mocking.
"Uh..."
That Teacher was immediately choked up and had nothing to say.
After all, Zhou Yi's method was not suitable for widespread promotion. If it were truly promoted, Shrek's reputation would likely be completely ruined.
After all, 99% of those entering Shrek were nobles from the Three Great Empires. Each noble had varying degrees of influence and cooperation with Shrek behind them. The interests involved were incredibly complex. If these students were truly expelled, Shrek would likely suffer a great misfortune.
This World, in the final analysis, was still based on interests. All cooperation was for the sake of interests.
"Alright, don't interrupt. Shrek has never had a precedent for changing classes. Your reason is not enough to convince me. If there's nothing else, you can go back." Du Weilun naturally knew Bai Zhou. He fought on the first day of school, was a troublemaker, and had a sharp tongue. He really didn't want to say more to him.
Changing classes was impossible. After all, the academy didn't have this rule and couldn't open this loophole.
"How about this, there's a freshman competition in three months. You don't think Zhou Yi teaches well? If you just let me and Wang Dong change classes, we are confident we can win the championship in the freshman competition."
"If we don't win the championship, we will withdraw from school ourselves."
Bai Zhou spoke calmly, directly initiating a gambling match. People from Shrek Academy would definitely fall for this move.
"Oh? Are you sure?"
Du Weilun immediately became interested upon hearing this.
"It's not me bragging, in my opinion, all freshmen students are trash. I actually don't need a Teacher at all."
Bai Zhou chuckled. He was already cheating, what the hell did he need a Teacher for?
"Moreover, we Spirit Masters Cultivate everything by ourselves, not by some powerful Teacher. If one could become strong by relying on Teachers, then what is talent needed for? What are resources needed for?"
Bai Zhou spoke to himself, each sentence causing the Teachers present to be deeply shaken.
No one expected that a young freshman would have such a high level of understanding. This was interesting.
"Good, good, good. You kid are very confident. You have successfully convinced me. I agree to let you change classes, but if you cannot win the championship in the freshman assessment, then withdraw from school yourselves."
Du Weilun laughed heartily, clearly completely convinced by Bai Zhou, and agreed to Bai Zhou's gamble.
"Okay, I want to change to Class Nine under Teacher Mu Jin," Bai Zhou nodded and directly chose the class he wanted.
"You kid, are you doing this on purpose?"
Du Weilun's hand holding the pen trembled slightly, and he looked at Bai Zhou with some suspicion.
Class Nine was Mu Jin's class. All the Teachers knew that Mu Jin and Zhou Yi were love rivals.
When Mu Jin was young, she pursued Fan Yu with Zhou Yi, but Fan Yu only liked Zhou Yi... Mu Jin's mentality collapsed, leading to slow cultivation progress and frequent opposition to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi also didn't tolerate Mu Jin, and whether it was intentional or not, she expelled one of Mu Jin's third-year nephews...
Mu Jin reported Zhou Yi, and the matter became quite big, which was why Zhou Yi was transferred to the freshman class.
Bai Zhou wanting to go to Mu Jin's class was interesting.
"What do you mean on purpose? I just think the number 9 is relatively auspicious," Bai Zhou pretended not to know, playing dumb.
The other Teachers around also looked at Bai Zhou with strange expressions, but they didn't say anything. After all, that was gossip among the Teachers, and it wasn't appropriate to discuss it with students.
"Alright, I'll notify Zhou Yi and Mu Jin tomorrow. From now on, you two will be students in Class Nine. Report to Class Nine tomorrow."
Du Weilun breathed a sigh of relief and didn't refuse.
After all, Zhou Yi and Mu Jin had been bickering for so many years, one more time wouldn't matter.
"Thank you, Teacher."
Bai Zhou bowed slightly to Du Weilun, maintaining politeness.
"You kid, you're truly a troublemaker..."
Du Weilun smiled helplessly, waved his hand, and said, "Alright, you go back and rest early."
...
"Is what you said true? We can really win the championship in the competition...?" Wang Dong couldn't help but ask after leaving the Academic Affairs Office.
"What, you don't have confidence?"
Bai Zhou raised an eyebrow and asked back.
"I... I don't. It's just first place, what's so difficult?" Wang Dong puffed out his chest, pretending to be confident.
"Alright, you go back first. I still have something to do tonight." Bai Zhou pushed Wang Dong towards the direction of the dormitory.
"No! You want to secretly Cultivate behind my back again! You said you would take me with you!" Wang Dong immediately became anxious and grabbed Bai Zhou's arm.
"I really have something to do, don't follow me."
Bai Zhou pressed Wang Dong's face, trying to push him away.
After all, the matter with Tang Ya was really not good for Wang Dong to know.
"I don't care, you won't get stronger behind my back!" Wang Dong clung to Bai Zhou shamelessly, refusing to let go.
The two of them tussled for a while, and Bai Zhou was helpless, so he had to drag Wang Dong to the academy's training ground.
Bai Zhou and Tang Ya had agreed, and it was clear Tang Ya had already booked a room and was waiting for him. Bai Zhou was in a hurry now and couldn't let Tang Ya wait too long.
"Cultivation depends on yourself. You can open any room, and I'll open one too. I'll call you tomorrow morning."
Bai Zhou opened a room for himself and directly shut Wang Dong out.
"Hmph! So secretive..."
Wang Dong stomped his foot, pouting angrily.
He actually wanted to Cultivate with Bai Zhou. After all, he was truly curious why Bai Zhou was so strong despite being the same age. He wanted to see how this guy cultivated.
However, the cultivation room was a bit small, and he also felt a bit awkward squeezing in with Bai Zhou, so he could only open a cultivation room for himself and go in...
Bai Zhou waited for a few minutes, then quietly came out and walked towards the cultivation room he had agreed upon with Tang Ya...
PS: The matter between Mu Jin and Zhou Yi is not something I made up, the original text strongly hinted at it.
