The Famed Master, with Only Rank 29 Soul Power?

Although Huo Feng looked perfectly normal at the moment,

he was actually somewhat surprised inside.

Judging by Yu Xiaogang's current state, he seemed rather calm.

That was truly a little abnormal.

After all, his beloved disciple Tang San had failed even Shrek Academy's entrance examination.

Since Yu Xiaogang was standing here, he must have known about the news.

For him to remain so calm despite that was indeed rather incomprehensible.

Could it be that he had simply given up on Tang San?

If that were the case, Tang San would be far too miserable.

While he was mulling it over, everyone had already arrived at the center of the training ground under Flender's lead.

The other students besides Huo Feng were equally curious.

The training ground seemed especially lively today. Not only had the head and vice headmasters, Flender and Zhao Wuji, arrived,

but the academy's other teachers had come to the training ground as well.

Even Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar wore faintly puzzled expressions.

They were all senior students and naturally knew every teacher in the academy.

Yet none of them recognized the middle-aged man standing among the teachers.

"Fatty, do you think he's a new teacher at the academy?"

Dai Mubai leaned toward Ma Hongjun and quietly voiced the question in his heart.

The latter shook his fat head and big ears.

"You're asking me? Who the hell am I supposed to ask?"

Naturally, Ma Hongjun did not know Yu Xiaogang either.

Zhu Zhuqing remained as cold and aloof as ever, as though she had no interest in anything.

Although Ning Rongrong was somewhat curious, she did not know any of these teachers and thus did not ask.

Huo Feng and Xiao Wu, who knew Yu Xiaogang, merely walked beside them without saying a word.

"Alright, now that everyone is here, I have a few matters to announce."

Flender walked before the seven students, his gaze sweeping across them.

"First, I'll introduce the teachers of Shrek Academy to the four new students."

With a calm expression, Flender pointed at the elderly man they had seen at the academy gates before, whose Martial Soul was a long staff.

"This is Teacher Li Yuesong. His Martial Soul is the Dragon Pattern Staff, and he is a Rank 63 Soul Emperor."

Next, he pointed at the second elderly man, who was even older and appeared to be over seventy. "This is Teacher Lu Qibin. His Martial Soul is Star Luo Chess, and he is a Rank 66 Soul Emperor."

The three girls turned their gazes toward the teachers standing to Flender's left and right, unable to hide their astonishment.

Even the academy's ordinary teachers were Soul Emperors or above in Soul Power.

That was truly terrifying! Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar had known this long ago, so they were not surprised.

Instead, they kept their attention on Yu Xiaogang, who stood in the center putting on an air of profundity.

They all wanted to know the background of this new teacher and whether he was equally formidable. As for Huo Feng, he had long been thoroughly familiar with the setting of Douluo Continent, so naturally he was not surprised at all.

At this moment, Flender began introducing the third teacher.

"This is Teacher Shao Xin. His Martial Soul is Sugar Bean, and he is a Rank 71 Soul Saint. An Food System Soul Master."

"Among all the Food System Soul Masters I know, Teacher Shao is definitely among the top five strongest."

At those words, the three girls became even more astonished.

This teacher, who was short and ordinary-looking,

was actually a Soul Saint—and a Food System Soul Saint at that.

He was truly rare.

After Flender's introduction, the three teachers all nodded at the students. Though their expressions differed, they had at least offered their greetings.

However, Huo Feng noticed that the teacher whose Martial Soul was the Dragon Pattern Staff had remained expressionless from beginning to end.

Moreover, he seemed somewhat repulsed by Yu Xiaogang, who stood beside him in the central position.

This... there should not have been any conflict between them.

Why was he acting like this?

Huo Feng, who had not been particularly interested before, began to speculate as well.

Just then, Flender pointed at Zhao Wuji and gave a simple introduction. "This is Vice Headmaster Zhao Wuji, a Rank 76 Soul Saint. I presume you already know him."

Finally, he walked straight to Yu Xiaogang, put an arm around the shoulder on the side of the latter's severed arm, and said with a smile,

"As for this final person, I must introduce him to you properly!"

"He is the man who, through his own research, formulated the Ten Core Competitiveness Theories of Martial Souls. He is hailed as the foremost authority on Martial Soul theory and the wisest Soul Master—"

"Mr. Yu Xiaogang!"

"We have known each other for decades. Perhaps you may not recognize his name."

"But I believe you have all heard of his title. From now on, you may call him Master."

"Master will remain at the academy for a while and provide you with guidance. If you encounter any problems in cultivation, you may ask Master."

Flender's introduction had truly given Yu Xiaogang plenty of face.

Not only had he praised him in a rather shameless manner, but he had not mentioned a single word about Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul or Soul Power.

Upon hearing Flender's introduction, a rare stiff smile appeared on Yu Xiaogang's face.

Clearly, he was very satisfied with Flender's introduction of him.

"Master, do you have anything to say?"

Finally, Flender turned his gaze toward Yu Xiaogang, a hint of inquiry flashing in his eyes.

The implication was obvious.

Yu Xiaogang himself had requested to meet these students.

Now that Flender had arranged everything,

whether Yu Xiaogang truly intended to "teach" these students or had some other plan,

this was clearly the most suitable time for him to speak.

Yu Xiaogang nodded pretentiously, stepped forward, and walked before the seven.

Then, after casually sweeping his gaze from left to right, he spoke,

"Strictly speaking, I am not really a teacher of this academy. However, over the years, I have indeed formed some unique insights."

"If you have any questions regarding cultivation or Martial Souls, you may come ask me."

After he finished speaking, four of the seven were thoroughly bluffed by Yu Xiaogang.

Naturally, Huo Feng and Xiao Wu showed no reaction.

Having spent six years at Notting Academy, they had long known exactly what kind of person this fellow was.

Huo Feng in particular was already sneering inwardly.

And you think you can guide them? Other than the two Support System Soul Masters, Oscar and Ning Rongrong, you probably can't beat a single one of the other students, can you?

The other person who had not been bluffed was Dai Mubai.

There was no special reason for it; he had simply heard of Yu Xiaogang's name before.

Out of curiosity, he had even specifically looked into him back then.

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang walked to Flender's side and whispered a few words to him.

Flender turned back. After giving a few instructions, Zhao Wuji and the three teachers all left.

Only Yu Xiaogang remained where he was.

Then Flender looked at everyone and said, "Alright, you may disperse now. Class times will be announced separately!"

"Huo Feng and Xiao Wu, stay behind."

Upon hearing this, ten thousand Grass Mud Horses galloped through Huo Feng's heart.

He did not even need to think about it. That damned Yu Xiaogang had definitely said something.

The other five nodded and turned to leave.

Before they had gone far, four of them gathered around Dai Mubai.

A somewhat strange expression appeared on his face as he said meaningfully,

"I heard that this famous Master only has Rank 29 Soul Power!"

"And his Martial Soul is some strange thing that looks neither like a pig nor a dog."
