Beibei was the first to snap back to reality. "Hello, my name is Beibei. This is my girlfriend, Tang Ya. Are you also new students here to register?"
"That's right, Senior Sister, Senior Brother. Hello." Moyuan and the other two replied.
Since this was their first meeting, they greeted each other with a polite but distant tone. Moyuan and the other two then went to wait not far from the registration area, while Huo Yuhao continued with his registration.
The teacher handling the registration was a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. He looked somewhat rigid, serious, and meticulously asked Huo Yuhao for his information.
"Name."
"Huo Yuhao."
The middle-aged teacher noted it down. After testing Huo Yuhao's bone age and finding it acceptable, he took out a blue crystal ball.
"Place your hand on it to test your Soul Power Level."
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao instantly became nervous. He slowly placed his hand on it, and then a third of the crystal ball lit up.
Seeing this, the middle-aged teacher raised an eyebrow slightly and turned to Beibei, his tone somewhat displeased. "Beibei, are you mistaken? A Soul Power Level of eleven can get into Shrek Academy anytime?"
The middle-aged teacher was filled with anger. He was already annoyed by being assigned this troublesome and exhausting registration work, and now some kid with a Soul Power Level of eleven was trying to trick him?!
Just as he was about to expel Huo Yuhao from the academy, Tang Ya, who was enthusiastically chatting with Ning Tian, quickly stepped forward to explain for Huo Yuhao.
"Teacher Feng, the academy gives our Tang Sect one trial exemption spot each year. As the current Sect Master of the Tang Sect, I'm using this year's spot for Little Yuhao."
"I almost forgot, you little girl are indeed the Sect Master of the Tang Sect. But haven't you not used this spot for many years? Why are you using it this time?" Teacher Feng suddenly realized, and the anger in his eyes towards Huo Yuhao subsided.
"Hehe, Little Yuhao is my newly accepted disciple. As a teacher, of course, I have to take care of him!" Tang Ya said with a grin.
"Alright." Teacher Feng casually noted this down and then looked at Huo Yuhao.
"I'll say this upfront: although you can enter the academy through the Tang Sect's recommendation without a trial, if you fail the New Student Assessment three months from now, you will still be eliminated."
Huo Yuhao said firmly, "I will definitely work hard to improve my Soul Power Level and not disappoint you and Teacher Xiaoya!"
Ning Tian and Wu Feng, upon hearing that Tang Ya was the current Sect Master of the Tang Sect, couldn't help but cast inquisitive glances at her.
The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, the Tang Sect. They had both been glorious in the past, and after ten thousand years, they had each declined for their own reasons.
However, compared to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, which was still immensely wealthy and renowned across the continent, the Tang Sect, whose foundation was snatched away by the obscure Iron Blood Sect, was merely a roadside weed.
It could only be said that those who couldn't keep up with the times, whether people or things, would eventually be crushed by the rolling wheels of history.
Thinking of Huo Yuhao's Soul Power Level of eleven at the age of eleven, Teacher Feng, who was in a bad mood, wanted to say something unpleasant. But seeing Huo Yuhao's determined gaze, he ultimately said nothing more.
"Having dreams is a good thing." Then, Teacher Feng looked at Moyuan and the other two waiting not far away. "It's your turn. Name."
Moyuan exchanged glances with Ning Tian and Wu Feng. Finally, Wu Feng took the lead.
After quickly noting their names and checking their bone ages, Teacher Feng handed the blue crystal ball to Wu Feng.
Scarlet Red soul power was injected into the crystal ball, and suddenly, more than two-thirds of the crystal ball was filled with red light. The maximum limit for this crystal ball test was level thirty, meaning Wu Feng's soul power was around level twenty-five.
"Good, good, good! Level twenty-five soul power, not bad, not bad." Teacher Feng showed a joyful expression, a stark contrast to his indifferent attitude when facing Huo Yuhao earlier.
As a teacher of Shrek Academy, this was their normal reaction.
However, this change of pace, faster than flipping a book, deeply stung Huo Yuhao's self-conscious heart. If he hadn't known about the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm comforting him, who knows what would have happened with these accumulated experiences.
"I see the three of you came together, so I'll look at your recommendation letters later. Next!"
Ning Tian stepped forward. After skillfully registering her name and checking her bone age, she placed her jade hand on the crystal ball. As a brilliant light lit up again, this time, Teacher Feng's joy was tinged with a hint of shock.
"Level thirty?! Good, good, good! Not only do we have a genius this time, but a true monster has appeared!"
Beibei, Tang Ya, and Huo Yuhao, who had been observing, also showed surprise upon seeing the crystal ball filled with light.
They had thought that with Ning Tian's noble demeanor and perfect appearance, her background and strength would not be weak, but they hadn't expected her to reach level thirty at the age of eleven.
This was even stronger than the First Generation Shrek Seven Devils were upon enrollment.
Secretly noting Ning Tian's appearance to report to the academy for special attention, Moyuan finally began his registration.
As the last one to appear, everyone except Ning Tian and Wu Feng was full of curiosity about him. They wanted to see how strong Moyuan, who was traveling with two geniuses and monsters, would be.
"Name."
"Moyuan."
Teacher Feng noted the name, then placed his hand on Moyuan's wrist to check his bone age. Confirming he was not yet twelve years old, he handed the crystal ball over.
The same brilliant light flashed again. Looking at the gentle and amiable Moyuan, Teacher Feng excitedly stood up, "Good, good, good! Another monster who has exceeded level thirty at the age of eleven!"
Beibei and the other two, who had witnessed everything, also showed astonishment. They had initially thought Moyuan and his companions' talents would be high, but they hadn't expected them to be this strong!
Wu Feng was a level twenty-five genius, while Moyuan and Ning Tian were both monsters above level thirty. Such talent was rare at Shrek Academy, perhaps only one or two in a year or two. But this year, just these three alone produced two!
They heard that the White Tiger Duke's son had also enrolled this year, and his soul power level was likely above level thirty.
Three! There would be at least three monsters this year!
Looking at Moyuan and the others, Beibei felt it was necessary to interact with them more.
After the surprise, Teacher Feng gave Moyuan a deep look, firmly remembering his handsome and eerie face, and then said, "Let me see your recommendation letters."
Hearing this, Ning Tian suddenly glanced at Moyuan, who was smiling calmly. Seeing that he didn't react to her gaze, a hint of disappointment appeared in her eyes. She then took out two envelopes from her Soul Tool. On the sealing wax of the envelopes was a noble nine-colored seal.
"Are you from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan?" Teacher Feng suddenly asked upon seeing the nine-colored seal. The joyful expression in his eyes instantly disappeared.
Since they were from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, and with that talent, their status was certainly not low. In this case, even if they entered Shrek Academy to study, they would eventually leave, having nothing to do with them.
They even had to worry that Ning Tian would poach talented students from the academy into their Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan through various means. This worry was not unfounded.
Almost every generation, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan would send people to Shrek Academy. Similarly, almost every time, the people who came would take away a few geniuses.
Although the upper echelons of Shrek Academy were unhappy about this, they couldn't do anything. After all, they were just an academy and couldn't restrict the students' future paths after graduation.
The only thing they could do was to use various means to recruit geniuses themselves.
"Wow! Ning Tian, Wu Feng, you are actually disciples of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan! I knew it. With your looks and temperament, you must come from a major sect."
Tang Ya exclaimed. She actually wanted to say, 'Ning Tian and they have quite a fate,' and then mention the ten-thousand-year relationship between the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Tang Sect.
But when she thought about how her own Tang Sect's foundation was snatched away by an unknown Iron Blood Sect, she felt too embarrassed to speak.
After receiving Ning Tian's affirmative reply, Teacher Feng's excited heart completely cooled down. Looking at Moyuan, who was also walking up holding an envelope, his enthusiasm waned.
After all, Moyuan came with Ning Tian. Ning Tian and Wu Feng were both from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. You wouldn't, and it's highly unlikely you aren't, right?
