They fawned over those with value and kicked away those without it. That was understandable enough; after all, an academy was not a charity.
But Shrek's methods differed from those of other academies. They did everything they could to suppress their students, all so the students would obey them unquestioningly.
And they desperately exploited their students to make money, resorting to every possible means.
Take Ning Rongrong, for example. In her previous life, after they learned that she was the young mistress of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, they deliberately targeted her first, using all sorts of methods to force her to lower her head.
They claimed it was for her future, to temper her bad personality. Yet once Ning Rongrong obediently fell in line, they began their bloodsucking scheme, obtaining no small amount of benefits from her and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The others had not escaped this treatment either. Dai Mubai, for instance, had long been trained into Shrek's loyal dog. He defended Shrek in every way possible and even helped Shrek suppress others. Their intentions were truly vile!
It was precisely because I saw through their ways in my previous life that I decisively left. But this time, in order to take Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong away with me, I could only endure it for now.
Oh, right. As far as I know, Yu Xiaogang will soon come to Shrek Academy to become a teacher. That guy's true colors are even worse than Flender's and Zhao Wuji's.
Yu Xiaogang got my teacher killed. That alone means I can never let him go. He must pay his blood debt with blood.
It was just that Bibi Dong had been deceived by Yu Xiaogang throughout her previous life, only realizing his true nature at the moment of her death. It probably would not be easy to make her wake up early like Zhuqing.
Even though my teacher treated me very well, I still had to complain: if she had even half the talent for judging people and intelligence that she had for cultivation as a soul master, how could she have ended up so miserably?
Anyway, my teacher can't possibly see what I write in my diary, so I'll quietly mutter this: Bibi Dong, when will your brain start working properly?
Bang!
Bibi Dong's face turned livid. With one slap, she shattered the table before her, sending wood chips flying everywhere as terrifying ripples swept through the surroundings.
Fortunately, Hu Liena had the foresight to retreat the instant she saw the diary's contents, and thus was not caught up in it.
Even so, seeing Bibi Dong's chest heaving rapidly, Hu Liena could not help breaking into a cold sweat.
Junior Brother, Junior Brother, you really are bold. You actually said Teacher's brain doesn't work properly. Aren't you afraid Teacher will come looking to settle the score with you?
Hu Liena finally understood why the rules forbade them from revealing the existence of the Diary Instance to Luo Ye.
If Luo Ye knew they possessed Diary Instances and could read what he wrote, would he still dare write that Bibi Dong's brain did not work properly?
It seemed this diary was no good thing either. It had deliberately tricked Luo Ye this way, making him rant wildly inside it.
Diary: In the end, I was the one who bore everything. Damn it!
"That bastard actually dared to talk about me like that?!"
Bibi Dong was furious. She wished she could appear before Luo Ye right now and teach him a harsh lesson, letting him know that a teacher could not be insulted.
He dared arrange her like this in his diary, yet he still claimed she was his teacher, that she had cared for him greatly and treated him like true family?
What kind of disciple treated their teacher like this?
Rebellious disciple. An utterly rebellious disciple!
Bibi Dong felt so angry that her guts hurt.
Bibi Dong could guess that she and Hu Liena were not the only ones who had obtained Diary Instances. There were likely several others, and Qian Renxue in particular was most likely one of their holders.
After Luo Ye said her brain did not work properly, who knew how Qian Renxue would laugh at her when she saw it.
Hu Liena coughed twice and said, "Teacher, please calm down. Luo Ye doesn't know we can see his diary. If he knew, he definitely wouldn't say such things about you."
Bibi Dong shot her a fierce glare and snapped, "It's precisely because he doesn't know that he spoke his true thoughts. Saying my brain doesn't work properly—that must be what he really thinks, right?"
Bibi Dong sneered. Hu Liena's words had not comforted her in the slightest; instead, they only made her angrier.
Seeing her like this, Hu Liena immediately fell silent and did not speak up for Luo Ye again. Instead, she quietly prayed for him in her heart.
Stop it, Luo Ye. If you keep talking about Teacher like this, even Senior Sister won't be able to save you in the future.
"Pfft, hahaha!"
"His brain doesn't work properly? Luo Ye really isn't wrong. That woman Bibi Dong is exactly like that. He said it perfectly!"
Just as Bibi Dong had guessed, Qian Renxue was overjoyed the moment she read this diary entry. She even felt like going to Spirit Hall right now to see exactly what kind of reaction Bibi Dong had.
At that moment, Qian Renxue had already regarded Luo Ye as a kindred spirit. He had said what she had always thought deep down.
Especially since Luo Ye did not know they could see the contents of his diary, these were certainly his true thoughts.
In his eyes, Bibi Dong was a brainless, foolish woman.
"Since Luo Ye said so himself, he must also know that Spirit Hall will only get worse and worse in Bibi Dong's hands. When I want to seize power in the future, he should help me, right?"
Qian Renxue's eyes flickered, and excitement rose uncontrollably in her heart.
Shrek Academy.
After seeing Luo Ye's complaint, Zhu Zhuqing opened her mouth several times, wanting to stop him from continuing such dangerous behavior.
In Zhu Zhuqing's view, if Bibi Dong had also obtained a Diary Instance, she would certainly be furious after seeing Luo Ye say she had no brains.
Especially since Bibi Dong and Luo Ye did not yet share the master-disciple relationship they had in their previous life. What if she wanted to punish Luo Ye?
If that really happened, Luo Ye might refrain from resisting out of consideration for their master-disciple bond. That would truly be bad.
But after thinking of the consequences of exposing the Diary Instance, Zhu Zhuqing still forcibly suppressed the impulse and did not voice her thoughts.
Just then, Zhao Wuji spoke to Dai Mubai.
"Mubai, you'll be responsible for arranging accommodation for the five new students. Classes officially begin tomorrow."
After saying that, Zhao Wuji, feeling utterly humiliated, did not linger any longer and hurried away from the area.
Dai Mubai secretly rolled his eyes, muttered a few words under his breath, then reluctantly followed Zhao Wuji's instructions and helped arrange lodging for Luo Ye and the others.
He had originally thought Luo Ye had simply coasted to victory in this assessment, but after hearing Zhao Wuji's words, he realized that Luo Ye was the one who had earned MVP.
