There Are Actually Such Disgusting People in the World—Asking for Investment

Monster Academy.

Shrek, huh.

After giving it some thought, Xu Changqing understood why Yu Xiaogang had sent Tang San over. He was nothing more than trying to recruit help for the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament.

All Xu Changqing could say to that was, yeah, right.

Xu Changqing had never intended to attend Shrek Academy. It was not that he looked down on it or anything; he simply knew the academy inside and out. Leaving aside how poor it was, the strongest person in the entire academy was only a Soul Saint. It had neither cultivation resources nor simulated cultivation environments, and its method of training students was actually running.

Shrek Academy would be of virtually no help to him now.

Thinking about it carefully, without the massive cheat that was Immortal Herbs, Dai Mubai and the others who had already enrolled in the original story could only be considered talented at best.

Monsters?

They really had the nerve to call themselves that.

Perhaps Oscar, a food-type Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power, could barely count as one.

That was not baseless talk. Take Dai Mubai, for example. A fifteen-year-old level 37 Battle Soul Grandmaster was indeed stronger than most people his age, but compared to some of the more notable supporting characters from the original story, such as Feng Xiaotian and Shui Bing'er, whose talent was not superior to Dai Mubai's?

When sixteen-year-old Shui Bing'er officially appeared in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, her Soul Power had already reached level 44. Wasn't that far stronger than fifteen-year-old Dai Mubai at level 37?

If Dai Mubai had not later consumed the Immortal Herb Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, causing his Soul Power to soar and improving his physique, it would have been uncertain whether he could even reach the Soul Ancestor rank by the time the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament officially began.

Among the Shrek Seven Devils in the original story, Oscar was probably the only one who was truly exceptionally gifted. Food-type Soul Masters had always found cultivation more difficult than other types of Soul Masters, yet his Soul Power progressed steadily. He was talented and hardworking, so it was no wonder the God of Food had taken a liking to him in the end.

Xu Changqing knew Shrek's situation like the back of his hand. Without Immortal Herbs and protagonist plot armor, they really were nothing special.

This was it?

He might as well go to one of the Four Elements Academy!

Gale, Blazing Fire, Thunder, and Tianshui—although these four academies did not differ much from Shrek in terms of high-end combat power, they had money. They lacked nothing, including simulated cultivation environments.

Compared to them, Spirit Hall Academy and Heaven Dou Royal Academy undoubtedly had even better resources. However, because of Xiao Wu's identity, Xu Changqing had placed those two on his primary exclusion list alongside Shrek.

Heaven Dou Royal Academy had Dugu Bo, and Spirit Hall Academy needed no mention. There were simply too many uncertainties with those two.

As for the Four Elements Academy, they definitely had no Titled Douluo, and likely not many Soul Douluo either. In the middle and later parts of the original story, the four elemental academies merged into a single Four Elements Academy. Feng Xiaotian, whose strength was only level 61, could become the vice dean of the merged academy. Looking at it that way, Xu Changqing guessed that the deans of these four academies were probably only Soul Saints.

Neither too strong nor too weak—just right.

Given his current circumstances, there was no better choice than the Four Elements Academy!

Xu Changqing had originally wanted to attend Heavenly Water Academy. There was no special reason for it—looking at beautiful women was good for one's health, prolonged one's life, and resisted aging. Occasionally pleasing one's body and mind during cultivation was also important. Unfortunately, it only accepted pretty girls with water-element Martial Souls. Neither Xiao Wu nor Ning Rongrong had water-element Martial Souls. Xu Changqing's Third Soul Skill could barely make him half a water-element Soul Master, but he was a man...

He wondered whether Tianshui would make an exception and admit the three of them because of their extraordinary talent. If not, he planned to go to Gale Academy!

He would participate in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, and naturally hoped to find some capable teammates without affecting his cultivation progress. Tianshui had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and control-type Shui Bing'er would make a very good teammate. At Gale Academy, Feng Xiaotian could carry six pigs by himself, and his strength was equally formidable. Those two academies were both his first choices.

Seeing Xu Changqing frown in silence for a long time, Tang San thought he was considering his proposal and decided to add fuel to the fire. "The four of us are all far more talented than our peers. If we form a team, we will surely be unmatched in the Soul Master Tournament. Winning the championship would be effortless. What do you have to worry about?"

Hearing Tang San say that, Xu Changqing glanced at him. "You care a lot about this tournament championship?"

"Of course!"

That is the first step toward restoring the Tang Sect in this world!

"We're all young people. Who wouldn't want to show themselves off in a Soul Master Tournament watched by the whole nation?" Tang San said as if it were only natural.

"Mm, you're right." Xu Changqing nodded in agreement.

Tang San's face brightened. "So, you agree?"

"No. I refuse."

Xu Changqing said it with a straight face.

"Uh..."

Tang San's words caught in his throat. Are you fucking messing with me?

"Why? What's the reason?"

He frowned, feeling somewhat displeased. He had invited him so politely and gotten this far, yet this guy really did not know how to appreciate kindness.

"The reason? Very simple. Why would I choose some mysterious Monster Academy you mentioned instead of one of the continent's renowned academies? Take Heaven Dou Royal Academy, for example. At the very least, its cultivation resources are guaranteed. As for your so-called Monster Academy, ask Rongrong, the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, whether she has even heard of it," Xu Changqing replied evenly.

Tang San looked at Ning Rongrong, only to receive a disdainful eye-roll. "What kind of bullshit Monster Academy is that? If it were really so impressive, how could I possibly not have heard of it? Sword Grandpa and the others would have told me about it long ago. The fact is, I've never heard of this academy at all."

Her words were utterly certain—so certain that Tang San began to wonder whether the academy his teacher had mentioned was reliable after all. He knew Ning Rongrong was the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Regardless of her temperament, someone of her status necessarily had access to far more information than someone with an ordinary background like his.

Looks like I need to go back and ask Teacher for more details about this Monster Academy, Tang San thought. Then he said goodbye and left.

"Tch! Tang San is so disgusting. Even from this far away, I can smell a stench on him. It's revolting!" Once Tang San had gone some distance away, Ning Rongrong waved a hand in front of her nose, her face full of disgust.

Xiao Wu nodded with deep feeling and said in full agreement, "You don't know the half of it. Before you came, he used to let out chains of farts all the time. Once he started, it would go on for an entire week. A few times, he even farted out shit. The whole Seventh Dorm would stink so badly that no one could live there for days. It disgusted us to no end. I've never seen anyone so disgusting!"

Ning Rongrong's eyes widened in shock. "Really? I can't even imagine that scene. There are actually such disgusting people in the world?"

"Why would I lie to you?"
