Bab 37: Chapter 36: Dai Mubai's Shameless Thoughts_1
"We're finally here," Xu Ran couldn't help but sigh as he looked ahead at the small village. These days, he had traveled from Xingluo City to Notting City, then from Notting City to Soto City. Even though he had spent the time in a carriage, he still felt somewhat weary.
After he dropped Xiaowu off in Soto City, he would have to return to Xingluo City to meet Zhu Qing.
What a tough life for a man. Not only are they tired during that particular moment, but at other times too. Who's to blame when a man's burden is heavy? Most of the time, it's the man who is toiling, while the woman lies down and rests. No wonder they get exhausted.
"This place? Brother Xu Ran, you're not joking, are you?" Xiaowu, who was lying on Xu Ran's back, only raised her head and looked into the distance following his gesture, and saw only a tiny village.
This village seemed to have only about a hundred households; it didn't even count as large among villages. There was an advanced Soul Master academy here?
"Shrek Academy really does look pretty dilapidated. However, the teachers there are all very powerful, with the weakest among them being at the Soul Emperor level, and on top of that, there are three Soul Sages," Xu Ran explained to Xiaowu.
"That powerful? Then why would they choose such a remote place to establish an academy with such strong capabilities?" Xiaowu was astonished and curiously asked. In such a remote and backwards area, no normal people would choose to enroll, right? If it weren't for Xu Ran, she would definitely not even take a glance at such an academy.
"The admission standards at Shrek Academy are quite strict. Even if they went to a bustling city, it would be pointless. Moreover, to become a student of Shrek Academy, one must be under thirteen years old and have strength above level twenty. There aren't many people who possess such qualifications."
"That strict? Are they trying to train monsters or what? Even if such talented geniuses exist, they would directly choose to go to the Martial Soul Hall," Xiaowu couldn't help but say. Even she had to admit the power of the Martial Soul Hall, which stood above all Soul Master sects and academies. It was the Holy Land for Soul Masters. Although she had grievances with the Martial Soul Hall, she could not deny this fact.
"Shrek Academy has a motto: 'Prefer shortage over surplus.' The original intention of the teachers at Shrek Academy is indeed to turn the academy into a place that cultivates monsters," Xu Ran said as he walked towards the village. It was a busy time for agriculture, so the village was very quiet.
Xu Ran and Xiaowu, both dressed in luxurious attire—the young man with brows like swords and stars in his eyes, holding a three-foot-long sword, showing his outstanding poise. The young lady's face was delicate, wearing a pink and blue embroidered dress, beautifully entrancing. Their appearance in this place attracted quite a few stares.
Some of the peasant uncles shook their heads at the sight of the two; it seems that two more ignorant youngsters had been tricked into coming to this 'no-name' academy. However, they didn't say anything, after all, the boarding and lodging of Shrek Academy's teachers and students were dependent on them. The more students they had, the more money they made.
"Huh? What a stunning girl," an astonished voice came from behind.
Two young men appeared behind Xu Ran and Xiaowu.
The one on the left was a chubby youth, looking solid. With short hair, small eyes, his chubby cheeks bulging, and sporting a tiny mustache that seemed to have just sprouted after reaching puberty, resembling two rat whiskers however you looked at it.
The one on the right had long golden hair. His eyes were very peculiar, with both eyes having pupils within pupils. At that moment, he was staring intently at Xiaowu, as if he were looking at prey.
Xiaowu was already quite beautiful, and after Xu Ran's careful grooming, her natural beauty was even more evident.
Her black hair, silk-smooth and meticulously combed into a neat scorpion braid, dangled past her calves. She wore a powder-blue long dress with a pink belt cinched at the waist, tightly embracing her developing figure. Although her chest was not yet ample, her slender waist, so delicate it couldn't bear a full grasp, was sure to be the envy of countless women.
These two were none other than Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai, who had hurried back after participating in the soul fighting at the Suotuo City Great Douluo Arena.
"Beautiful lady, hello. I assume you're here to enter Shrek Academy. I am a senior student at Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai," Dai Mubai said, a stir in his heart as he observed Xiaowu's attractiveness.
Although the girl in front of him hadn't fully matured yet, as a veteran in the game of love, he naturally knew that such women were more flavorful to enjoy. Especially that charming and vivacious temperament of hers was irresistibly enticing.
Such beauty was probably comparable to his fiancée back in the Xingluo Empire, Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing was indeed beautiful, but she always showed him a cold face, as though he always owed her something.
Dai Mubai naturally felt he deserved better from Zhu Zhuqing. As his fiancée, she should understand the principle 'a wife must follow her husband.' It was unthinkable of her not to follow her betrothed, serve her fiancé, and then have the audacity to show displeasure.
Dai Mubai couldn't help but feel a bit resentful. Of course, if Zhu Zhuqing were here, he would never dare to reveal any of these thoughts. After all, with Zhu Zhuqing's stunning figure and beautiful face, he certainly didn't want to strain their relationship. Regardless of how Zhu Zhuqing showed her displeasure, she was ultimately his fiancée. Zhu Zhuqing might dislike him, but she could never destroy their engagement. Sooner or later, Zhu Zhuqing would lie willingly in his embrace, becoming his woman.
Nevertheless, he couldn't help feeling somewhat displeased. Zhu Qing could boast such an attractive body and gorgeous looks, perfect in every respect. How wonderful it would be if she willingly stayed with him? He wouldn't need to seek other women then. The twin beauties, though pretty, were just for fun. They paled in comparison to a stunning beauty like Zhu Qing.
But that day wouldn't be too far off. As Zhu Zhuqing's fiancé, she was bound to become his woman sooner or later.
"Oh," Xiaowu said icily, a trace of frost flashing in her eyes as she suppressed her dissatisfaction and gave a slight nod of her head.
"Let me take you to the academy now. Although today is not the day Shrek Academy enrolls new students, with us to intervene on your behalf, you can enter the academy as long as you meet the requirements," Dai Mubai said, about to grasp Xiaowu's hand, an evil smile creeping onto his face.
Was it so easy to get into Shrek Academy?
The famed saying of Shrek Academy, 'We only accept monsters,' may be scoffed at by many, but this distinctive academy attracted rebellious scions and young ladies from prominent families each year. However, most of these individuals were unlikely to pass the examination. Clearly, this beautiful girl was no different.
He had already hatched a plan to capture her heart. He would first make her follow him by offering help with enrollment. After a few dinners together, she would be easily won over. These naïve children of nobility were the easiest to deceive.
As for her failing the examination in the end, that would be for the best. After all, isn't there a saying, 'to nip in the bud'? Isn't it better to enjoy the experience and then amicably part ways? If she passed the exam, wouldn't he then be obligated to take responsibility?
