Great Master Yu: Sleeping in the Pigsty Is Surprisingly Great!

Chapter 18: Great Master Yu: Sleeping in the Pigsty Is Surprisingly Great!

"Do you understand what the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul represents? With my help, the overall strength of any soul master group can be greatly improved." Ning Rongrong said furiously.

"But I can understand you too, you country bumpkin. Where would someone from the countryside like you have seen the power of the Upper Three Sects' inherited martial souls?"

"Today, I'll broaden your horizons!"

"Seven Treasures Manifest as Glazed Light."

Ning Rongrong's graceful figure traced a dazzling arc in place, like a rainbow blooming in the morning sunlight. In an instant, dazzling multicolored radiance burst from within her, dyeing the entire space in a dreamlike glow.

At the point where the light gathered most intensely, a crystal-clear, multicolored pagoda about a foot tall slowly rose into the air above the girl's right palm as if by miracle. It was not merely a condensation of light, but also a symbol of nobility and power. Its radiant treasure-light was so dazzling that no one dared look directly at it, displaying an extraordinary aura. Ning Rongrong seemed to have descended from beyond the Ninth Heaven as a celestial maiden—transcendent and untouched by worldly dust.

Immediately afterward, two dazzling yellow soul rings quietly rose from beneath her feet. Like loyal guardians, they drifted lightly around her body, adding a touch of mystery and majesty.

This was the famed Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Douluo Continent, known as the crown of Tool Martial Souls in the Support System. Like a rare treasure, this martial soul had been passed down through generations within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Only those of its direct bloodline could be fortunate enough to bear this glory and power.

"I'm a ninth-rank innate Support System soul master. Do you know what that means?"

"So what if you have ninth-rank innate soul power?" Shen He shrugged and pointed toward Tang San in the distance. "He has Innate Full Soul Power."

Hearing Shen He's words, Tang San immediately puffed out his chest proudly.

Xiao Wu was unwilling to be outdone and said, "I have Innate Full Soul Power too."

Flender, standing nearby, calmly added, "Oscar has Innate Full Soul Power as well."

Hearing Flender's words, Ning Rongrong's face instantly paled. She shouted, "No, that's impossible! How could a Food System Martial Soul have Innate Full Soul Power?"

Because of their innate limitations, Support System soul masters had never produced anyone with Innate Full Soul Power.

Thus, Ning Rongrong had always believed that, with her ninth-rank innate soul power, she already stood at the peak of Support System soul masters.

She had never imagined that Oscar, the Uncle Big Sausage whose Soul Spell was so lewd, would actually possess Innate Full Soul Power.

"Oscar is unprecedented. In the future, he may very well replace your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's position in the soul master world. If you are the future successor of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, then I'm pessimistic about your sect's future." Flender said calmly.

Ning Rongrong stood there in a daze. Shen He and Flender's words were like a heavy hammer, completely shattering all her former pride.

"Shen He, explain this to me. Why?"

Great Master Yu dragged Tang San over to Shen He. He was just about to say something when Shen He waved a hand and cut him off.

"Great Master Yu, I'm the dean of Shrek Academy now, and I'm teaching a class." Shen He said calmly. "When we're working, you should address me by my title."

"Cut the act!" Great Master Yu said furiously. "Explain this to me! On what grounds did you arrange for Xiaosan and me to stay in a pigsty?"

Now that Shrek Academy belonged to him, Shen He naturally wasn't stingy.

He bought all the vacant houses in the village, fenced off a large plot of land, and hired craftsmen to build classrooms, dormitories, a cafeteria, and other structures.

"If I remember correctly, you aren't a teacher at Shrek Academy, are you?" Shen He said calmly. "Why should I arrange lodging for you? Tell me."

Flender hesitated and waved a hand. In a low voice, he said, "Shen He, Xiaogang is my friend, after all. He—"

"Oh, Teacher Flender, of course I know that Great Master Yu is your longtime friend." Shen He chuckled. "He came to seek refuge with you, so naturally you have to take responsibility for him!"

"But I'm the one running Shrek Academy now. Friendship is friendship, but public and private matters must be kept separate."

"None of Tang San and the others come from great clans. I waived their tuition outright. Did I handle that appropriately?"

Hearing this, even Tang San had nothing to say.

It wasn't just the four newly enrolled students. Even Dai Mubai and the others had been exempted from this year's tuition.

After all, with the Narrator Modification System, money meant little to Shen He. Experience points were what he truly sought.

"But Great Master Yu is neither a teacher at Shrek Academy nor one of our workers. On what grounds does he get to freeload here?"

Great Master Yu was so angry that he stamped his feet. He shouted, "Shen He, are you saying that I, the number-one theoretical master in the soul master world, can't teach this group of children?"

"Great Master Yu, please watch your words. The children you mentioned are, in reality, mostly around your level of cultivation, and some are even stronger than you." Shen He said calmly.

Then he turned to Dai Mubai and the others and asked, "Some of you may know Great Master Yu, while others may not. He is Tang San's mentor. He raised Tang San from infancy, personally teaching him every step of the way."

"Now, Great Master Yu wants to become a new teacher at Shrek Academy. Who agrees, and who opposes?"

At first, confusion filled Dai Mubai and the others' eyes. But after hearing that Tang San was Great Master Yu's personal disciple, they all raised their hands at once.

"I oppose!"

What a joke. If Tang San didn't have a martial soul propping up his image, he would be nothing but a perverted, utterly useless waste. Who would want the teacher of such a person entering the academy?

Shen He nodded with a smile. "Very good. The people's eyes are sharp. Great Master Yu, unfortunately, you can't become a teacher at Shrek Academy."

"There's still a miscellaneous worker position open at the academy. You can sweep the floors and clean the latrines every day. If you're willing to do that, you can stay."

"As for the dormitory, you and Tang San will have to sleep in the pigsty. That's the academy's decision."

"On what grounds are you making me sleep in a pigsty?!" Great Master Yu's eyes seemed to spit fire as he shouted.

Hearing this, Shen He's face took on a strange expression. "Let me ask you, what is your martial soul?"

"A pig!"

"And what is Tang San's martial soul?"

"A pig too!"

Shen He clapped his hands. "Then isn't that settled? I've found the best Mimetic Cultivation Environment for both of you. I'm doing this for your own good!"

"Pfft!"

Dai Mubai and the others couldn't hold back their laughter when they heard Shen He's words.

Even Ning Rongrong, who had still been feeling somewhat depressed, was now shaking with suppressed laughter.

[Great Master Yu became furious when he heard Shen He tell him to sleep in the pigsty.]

Shen He's thoughts shifted, and the word "furious" in the narration instantly changed into "delighted."

In an instant, the fury in Great Master Yu's eyes transformed into joy. He shouted, "That's wonderful! Sleeping in the pigsty is surprisingly great!"

"Especially seeing the pigs' excrement. If I don't smell that fragrance, I can't eat a single bite every day!"

Then he patted Tang San on the shoulder and said, "Xiaosan, I have one piece of good news and one piece of bad news. Which do you want to hear?"

"The bad news?" Tang San said hesitantly.

"The bad news is that if we live in the pigsty, we may have to survive by eating pig excrement from now on!" Great Master Yu said.

Tang San was dumbfounded. "Then what's the good news?"

"There's plenty of excrement!"
