Early the next morning, Yun Qi and the others returned to the training field, waiting for Flender to appear. Since the original plan had been interrupted and such an incident had occurred, after Flender returned that night and listened to Oscar and Dai Mubai's accounts, he came to understand the whole situation.

Flender fell into a brief daze. Did youngsters these days really play this wildly? Moreover, the incident had already happened, and Dai Mubai had arrived too late. There was simply nothing he could do.

Flender wanted to say something, but when he looked at their determined faces, he was reminded of his own glorious past. In the end, he let out a deep sigh and waved for them to leave.

Before long, Flender, who had spent the entire night unable to figure things out, appeared before everyone. Everyone present had already met Flender before.

Ning Rongrong looked at the dean before her. He had a shoe-puller-shaped face, wore black-rimmed crystal glasses, and radiated a crafty air from head to toe. She whispered to Zhu Zhuqing:

"This dean, I didn't get a good look yesterday, but the more I look at him now, the more he seems like a..."

Ning Rongrong had not finished speaking when the corner of her eye caught Flender looking at her. She immediately stopped!

Looking at the silent atmosphere around them, the main reason was still Dai Mubai and Oscar. Dai Mubai had used up a favor from Flender to have a doctor treat him, since his injuries were only external. Oscar had also expressed his intentions at the clinic, but Flender still felt awkward, resulting in a very stiff atmosphere.

Yun Qi took the initiative to break the silence and greeted Flender.

"Dean, good morning!"

Only then did the others react and greet him one after another.

"Good morning, Dean!"

Flender finally came back to his senses from yesterday's incident. After clearing his throat, he said to everyone:

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Flender, and I'm the dean of Shrek Academy!"

When Yun Qi saw Flender pause, he instinctively led everyone in applauding. Flender looked at Yun Qi with satisfaction. This youngster understands how to conduct himself!

"All right, all right, stop!"

Only then did everyone stop applauding.

"My Martial Soul is the Four-Eyed Cat Owl. I'm a level seventy-eight Spirit Sage!"

Yun Qi and the others had already known this information, so they were not particularly surprised.

Flender immediately walked up to Oscar, then spoke to everyone in his uniquely magnetic, hoarse voice:

"This year's situation is quite good. Shrek, this Monster Academy, has finally welcomed four little monsters and one true monster!"

"I, Flender, as the dean of the academy, represent Shrek Academy in welcoming everyone's arrival. Later, remember to go to Teacher Ling Yusong, who is in charge of finances, and pay one hundred Gold Soul Coins each!"

After Flender finished speaking, he called Ma Hongjun's name.

"Ma Hongjun!"

Ma Hongjun stepped forward and respectfully addressed Flender:

"Dean."

"Later, take a few junior disciples and tell them about the academy's rules. Then get some rest. The first class will begin tonight! As for Oscar and Ning Rongrong, the two of you come with me!"

A strange look flashed through Yun Qi's eyes as he looked at Ning Rongrong. Ning Rongrong's badmouthing of Flender just now was definitely heard by him. With Flender's vengeful and protective personality, he'll probably make things difficult for Ning Rongrong to some extent.

However, Yun Qi said nothing. Ning Rongrong's personality indeed needed some polishing, but it could not go too far. Yun Qi still liked the Ning Rongrong who had character when dealing with outsiders!

Ning Rongrong obviously had no idea why Flender had called for her, while Oscar turned pale with shock.

"Oh no! The incident yesterday still made the dean remember me. This is terrible!"

Ning Rongrong walked to Flender in confusion. Oscar's face was also listless, filled with unwillingness and reluctance, as he slowly came before Flender and bowed.

Flender looked at the two of them, waved his hand, and said to the others:

"The rest of you can leave. Remember to rest, then come back here and gather before nightfall! The academy's teaching methods may differ from what you imagined!"

After hearing this, Ma Hongjun saw that the others were not leaving. He could not be bothered to explain the rules. He only wanted to lie down and sleep. Ma Hongjun was growing fonder of this carefree, slacking-off feeling, so he directly returned to his room and began snoring away.

Since Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu saw that Yun Qi was not leaving, they naturally stayed as well. Dai Mubai was concerned about Oscar, while Tang San wanted to see how the dean taught.

Flender did not mind. He had already given them all the reminders he needed to give. He turned to Oscar and Ning Rongrong and said:

"You are both Support Type Spirit Masters, and you each have different cultivation methods. So I'm not teaching you how to cultivate your Martial Souls—I can't teach that either! I can only tell you how to protect yourselves in future battles!"

Ning Rongrong inwardly complained. My family is from the strongest Support Type sect on the continent. We've inherited theories passed down through who knows how many generations, and the specific methods are engraved in our bones. How could we possibly need someone else to teach us?

Oscar, however, listened seriously to the knowledge Flender imparted. As someone from humble origins, he had few opportunities to learn anything beyond his studies or come into contact with such knowledge. He could only grope his way forward, even though he had heard Flender say similar things before.

Flender looked at the two of them and continued:

"Both of your Martial Souls are Support Type, but there are ultimately some differences between you. Still, all paths lead to the same destination. For Spirit Masters like you, who have no combat ability, how will you preserve yourselves if you have no companions to protect you?"

Ning Rongrong did not put on any airs. She simply answered according to her own thoughts:

"Train my physical fitness, stall for time, bribe the enemy with money, and if money doesn't work, use various treasures. Both my grandfathers are Titled Douluo!"

Flender's mouth twitched repeatedly when he heard Ning Rongrong's answer.

"What are you saying! What are you saying!!!!"

"So what if you have money!"

"So what if you have two Titled Douluo grandfathers!!!"

Flender roared inwardly, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it really was impressive. No one would want to kill this menace on the battlefield, after all. Two Titled Douluo going berserk was no joke!

Oscar???

That year, at fourteen, I stood on the training field like an ant!

Even the onlookers were stunned by Ning Rongrong's display of Versailles.

Yun Qi also sighed inwardly:

"This is what fits Ning Rongrong's Little Witch character setting! In the original plot, she seemed to have been affected by a Dumbing Down Halo! With such an incredible background, a wealthy family with connections, even the Royal Family had to curry favor with them, and her two grandfathers were among the most powerful people on the entire continent! If I had this background, I'd walk sideways directly!"

After quite a while, Flender recovered from his shock. He wiped the Cold Sweat from his forehead and sighed inwardly:

"I almost forgot. This Little Witch has too powerful a background. I'd better not mess with her for now! I'll just handle things normally."

Flender organized his thoughts and adjusted his breathing before slowly saying:

"Ning Rongrong is right! Everyone, applaud!!"

Oscar was completely Stunned! Dean, what's wrong with you! Dean!!! Oscar cried out inwardly.

After the applause stopped, Flender continued:

"Although you already know that physical fitness is indispensable for Support Spirit Masters, today you'll train your physical fitness! Ning Rongrong, run fifteen laps around the village first. Oscar, as the Senior disciple, run thirty laps and set an example!"
