Con Academy

Sure enough, the moment Flender heard the word "inspection," which struck a nerve, anger rose in his heart as he turned to question Mo Bai and the others.

"Hello, Dean. I was sent here by Grandmaster. This is his letter of introduction!"

Seeing that the Dean also seemed angered, Tang San hurriedly took out the letter his teacher had given him and handed it to Flender.

In the original story, Grandmaster had written to Flender in advance, so Flender had already known about Tang San by the time he arrived at Shrek Academy.

Now, under Mo Bai's influence, they had come to Shrek Academy early. Grandmaster had not had time to send a letter ahead, so there was only this letter of introduction. Flender did not yet know that Tang San was Grandmaster's disciple.

"Grandmaster? And a letter of introduction?"

Flender's expression shifted slightly at those words. He accepted the letter without giving anything away and opened it to read.

"Haha, good!"

"So it really is Xiao Gang! You're Xiao Gang's disciple!"

After reading the letter, Flender immediately burst into hearty laughter.

It was not only because he had learned about Mo Bai and the other two, but more importantly, because he had received news of Grandmaster.

"Tang San, is Xiao Gang doing well now?"

Flender then asked Tang San about him.

"Yes, Teacher is doing well. You know Teacher?"

Seeing that Dean Flender knew his teacher, Tang San quickly replied.

"Haha, your teacher and I have been old friends for many years. Back when we were young, Xiao Gang and I traveled the world together! The two of us, along with one other person, formed the famed Golden Triangle!"

"And many of this academy's teaching principles are related to Xiao Gang as well!"

Since Tang San had asked, Flender gave him a brief explanation.

He did not mention Liu Erlong's name, nor did he say much about why they had disbanded and gone so many years without seeing one another.

"So that's how it is. This is an academy run by Grandmaster's old friend!"

Listening silently from the side, Mo Bai immediately understood why Grandmaster had recommended Tang San here. It was because someone he knew was here.

Given how highly Grandmaster regarded Tang San, Mo Bai felt that Grandmaster himself might come here eventually.

After all, Grandmaster was only a guest at Notting Academy, not one of its teachers. He could leave whenever he wished.

Flender had also just said that many of this place's teaching principles were related to Grandmaster. Perhaps they used Grandmaster's theories on the Ten Great Core Spirit Competencies as references.

Then it made sense for Grandmaster to send Tang San here. Regardless of this place's conditions, coming here would better suit the specific guidance Grandmaster wanted to give Tang San.

And with even the Gatekeeper being so powerful, Shrek Academy certainly possessed a certain degree of strength.

But after realizing that this was the academy Grandmaster had specifically chosen for Tang San, and that Grandmaster might come here as well, Mo Bai became somewhat resistant to joining.

"You must be Mo Bai and Xiao Wu mentioned in Grandmaster's letter, correct?"

"With your talent, joining our Shrek Academy will be absolutely no problem!"

Flender then looked at Mo Bai and Xiao Wu with bright eyes, smiling warmly.

From Grandmaster's letter, he had already learned of Mo Bai and Xiao Wu's astonishing talent.

Three Innate Full Soul Power geniuses—could Shrek Academy finally be about to rise?

Flender was beside himself with excitement.

"Dean Flender, may I ask what advantages your academy has over other top academies?"

"Does it have many books? Does it have an Environment Simulation Training Ground? How is the faculty? Are the educational resources sufficient?"

Mo Bai calmly raised the same questions again.

"This..."

The kind smile on Flender's face stiffened slightly when he heard Mo Bai's words.

Only then did he understand why Teacher Li Yusong had said they were here to inspect Shrek Academy. From those questions, they truly had not come to join Shrek Academy directly—they had come to inspect it first, then decide whether to join.

Flender grew anxious. Naturally, he wanted to take in such talented youngsters.

But the questions Mo Bai had asked were rather pointed.

After his mind raced for a moment, Flender finally spoke with a smile.

"Of course, Shrek Academy certainly has advantages that other top academies do not!"

"For example, our academy only admits monsters. Shrek is synonymous with monsters. Once you join Shrek Academy, you are a genius among geniuses—commonly known as a monster!"

"Since Shrek Academy was founded over twenty years ago..."

Flender then began telling Mo Bai about Shrek Academy's history, using it to prove the academy's uniqueness and emphasizing that Shrek Academy would not accept anyone who was not a genius among geniuses.

It was as though he were saying that as long as one joined Shrek Academy, one would become a monster genius.

As for the faculty, although there were not many teachers, there were even fewer students, so every student could receive guidance from the teachers at any time.

Regarding the Environment Simulation Training Ground and the like that Mo Bai had mentioned, Flender casually said that such things were unimportant. Shrek Academy did not engage in that kind of simulated training; instead, they would directly take the students into real combat training.

Only the weak would dare cultivate solely in simulated environments, and so on...

Good heavens!

Mo Bai inwardly exclaimed in disbelief. They clearly couldn't afford to build an Environment Simulation Training Ground, yet it was spun as though they simply disdained such a thing.

"So, what do you think? Is our Shrek Academy impressive or not? Isn't it far better than those top-tier academies?"

By the end, Flender's face was full of pride.

As he spoke, even he began to feel that it was true—Shrek Academy really was that impressive!

"Mm, it is indeed very unique. I'd never considered that an academy like this could exist before! Although Shrek Academy isn't very famous yet, I believe it will definitely become renowned in the future!"

Mo Bai nodded in agreement. However, rather than calling it strong, he merely acknowledged Shrek Academy's uniqueness.

Mo Bai could not help but admire Dean Flender.

He had actually come up with the idea of creating this kind of elite academy.

And the elites it accepted were no ordinary elites—they were the cream of the crop.

An academy like this might not become famous at first, nor would it have much of a reputation.

But if Shrek Academy kept operating this way, and more and more students graduated from it, its reputation would only grow greater.

After all, it recruited nothing but monster-level geniuses. Once they graduated, they certainly would not turn out poorly.

And many graduates, in order to prove how powerful their alma mater was, would boast about it a little. Over time, Shrek Academy's reputation would naturally rise.

Mo Bai was certain that this would become a successful academy.

But it would also be a Con Academy—an academy that fooled those monster geniuses into joining and continuously building up Shrek Academy into a future prestigious school.
