Flender had never even heard of it.

It is clear that Yu Xiaogang is a truly capable person.

If we could bring Yu Xiaogang into the Shrek Academy to help train students and make him like Tang San, that wouldn't be a bad idea!

Flender's expression softened upon realizing this, and his attitude lost its initial coldness. "Xiao Gang, sit here. Let's discuss this first..."

····································

And so, Yu Xiaogang brought his own resources (Tang San) into the group (school), and successfully persuaded Flender with Tang San's example, thus obtaining the training rights for the Shrek Academy and beginning to develop a training plan for these students.

The next day, early morning.

Yu Xiaogang found his disciple Tang San. He had been busy persuading Flender yesterday and hadn't had time to study Tang San's External Soul Bone.

Now that Flender had been dealt with, Yu Xiaogang couldn't wait to find Tang San.

Tang San had just gotten up and opened the door when he bumped into a familiar figure.

"Teacher, what are you doing here?" Tang San asked with a look of surprise. Tang San was genuinely happy, after all, Yu Xiaogang had been very good to him and was generous in teaching him valuable knowledge. There were some things that even the teachers in the academy didn't know, but his teacher taught him without reservation.

Yu Xiaogang briefly explained why he had come.

Then, with a slight smile, he said to the obedient disciple before him, "Let's go outside the academy. Let me see what you've gained from this impulsive act."

Tang San was overjoyed; he had been wanting to ask the Yu Xiaogang what was wrong with his health.

Yu Xiaogang had taught relatively little about Soul Bone before, and he had hardly ever mentioned the precious External Soul Bone.

Tang San is currently unable to use the eight spider legs on his back skillfully, which is quite frustrating for him. This is precisely the time when he needs Yu Xiaogang to teach him.

The two left Shrek Academy and went to a quiet, deserted grove of trees outside the village.

Tang San first demonstrated the Blue Silver Grass that had mutated after absorbing the Soul Bone.

Although it did not absorb Soul Ring, its Martial Soul still underwent some changes due to the influence of the Soul Bone.

The Blue Silver Grass has become thinner, but more resilient. A layer of mucus adheres to its surface, which can not only bind objects but also contains the venom of the Man Faced Demon Spider.

It's less like a blade of grass and more like a spider's web!

In addition, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass had thorns from the Ghost Vine Soul Ring on its surface, making it look eerie and dangerous.

Yu Xiaogang demonstrated the effects of the Martial Soul with Tang San and nodded in satisfaction.

Currently, Blue Silver Grass's combat strength continues to increase.

Then came the eight spider legs. Looking at those dangerous, sharp spider legs, which were also covered in the venom of the Man Faced Demon Spider, Yu Xiaogang became more and more satisfied.

"Alright, alright, Little San, starting today, your teacher will reschedule your training."

Tang San smiled and continued chatting with Yu Xiaogang, echoing his teacher's words.

It's a good thing that the Yu Xiaogang is willing to stay at the Shrek Academy to guide my cultivation!

····································

The master and apprentice arrived at the college cafeteria after completing their experiment.

It was breakfast time, and although breakfast was ready in the cafeteria, it was empty.

Not a single student came to the cafeteria for breakfast. Yu Xiaogang frowned when he saw this. These children are still in the developmental stage and need nutrition. How can they stand it? It might even affect their cultivation and physical health.

After seeing the breakfast prepared by the cafeteria, Yu Xiaogang's expression turned even more unpleasant.

The meal consisted of congee, pickled vegetables, and steamed buns; the only slightly nutritious item was an egg on the side.

Only Work-Study Student from commoner backgrounds at the Notting Low-Level Soul Master Academy eat this.

Chapter 139 Tang San is Yu Xiaogang's living advertisement!

"Flender gave you this to eat?" The Yu Xiaogang's stiff face looked somewhat dark.

Tang San said contentedly, "This is already very good. There are plenty of steamed buns to fill me up. It's much better than when I was a child."

Even Yu Xiaogang, who always thought his disciple was well-behaved and sensible, was speechless. How could that be the same? Your childhood suffering was due to Tang Hao's irresponsibility, but now you've paid hundreds of Gold Soul Coin for tuition!

The academy only has six students, so even if they eat a little better, their monthly food expenses wouldn't exceed ten Gold Soul Coin.

The registration fee for students is ten Gold Soul Coin, and the tuition fee is even more than a hundred Gold Soul Coin.

Shrek Academy's expenses are obvious: they rent village houses as classrooms and dormitories, and have no textbooks, no training rooms, no library...

In other words, the expenses are actually rent, cafeteria food, teachers' salaries, etc.

The rent and food together don't exceed twenty Gold Soul Coin per semester. Keep in mind that one Gold Soul Coin is enough for a family of three to live on for several months.

The money either ended up in the teacher's pocket or was embezzled by Flender.

Yu Xiaogang calculated carefully that hiring a Soul Emperor as a teacher was only a few hundred Gold Soul Coin, which was actually a profit, and the teacher stayed at the Shrek Academy out of conscience.

Those advanced Soul Master Academy might spend thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins to invite a Soul Emperor to be their teacher.

But...

That's not how it's calculated. With only a handful of students at the Shrek Academy, it's unrealistic to expect the tuition fees alone to support the salaries of Soul Emperor-level teachers.

Moreover, among the students, Oscar and Ma Hongjun were adopted by Flender when they were young, and their family background and abilities were insufficient to pay the tuition fees.

In other words, before Tang San and his group arrived, Dai Mubai was the only person at the Shrek Academy who paid tuition.

After Tang San and his group arrived, only four people paid tuition.

Even Yu Xiaogang had a headache figuring out Shrek Academy's major expenses.

Flender is a Soul Saint, is it really necessary to do this? Other Soul Master Academy offer tuition waivers and provide them with the best food and drink, while geniuses under thirteen with Soul Power Level exceeding twenty are enrolled. How is he supposed to compete?

Aren't you afraid the students will run away?

The cook was a villager from nearby, and he looked at the steaming porridge, large white steamed buns, and eggs with some envy.

What was a meager breakfast for Soul Master was considered quite lavish by this villager.

But these Soul Master didn't like it. Every time they made so much, only one or two students would come to eat it, which was a waste.

·································

Yu Xiaogang planned to have a serious talk with Flender about the students' treatment. He would continue his high-intensity training and feeding the students the same unbalanced meat-based diet, otherwise their bodies would break down.

Whether or not they can get the money from Flender is another matter entirely.

The curriculum after enrollment consisted of nothing but running laps, weight training, and fighting in the Soto Great Soul Arena Soul Fighting. Zhu Zhuyue felt that this school was a complete waste of time.

So when Zhu Zhuyue learned that Yu Xiaogang was coming, she was quite looking forward to seeing this legendary Yu Xiaogang.

After all, she had already witnessed Tang San's strength.

With Tang San as an example, she still had some initial goodwill towards Yu Xiaogang.

Dai Mubai felt the same way. He had long been curious about Tang San, the teacher he always talked about, and wanted to know just how powerful the Yu Xiaogang could teach a genius like Tang San was.

His training must have helped him improve a lot.

After breakfast, the bell rang on time, summoning all the students to the academy's playground.

The six members of the Shrek Academy stood in a row.

Opposite them were all the teachers from the Shrek Academy plus the newcomer Yu Xiaogang, exactly six people, the same number as the students.

The two Dean are Flender and Zhao Wuji, respectively. The newly arrived level 29 Great Soul Master and Theoretical Yu Xiaogang Yu Xiaogang, level 63 Soul Emperor Li Yusong, level 66 Soul Emperor Lu Qibin, and level 71 Soul Saint Shao Xin.

The long-awaited reunion of teachers and students was a joyous occasion, with all twelve members of the Shrek Academy gathered together.

Ma Hongjun looked at the unremarkable middle-aged man Yu Xiaogang, with some curiosity, wondering what the teacher wanted to do by gathering them together.

Meanwhile, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuyue were seeing the three Soul Emperor teachers, who were usually invisible in the academy, for the first time.

As Flender proudly introduced the situation, Tang San's eyes gleamed with excitement and satisfaction.

My choice was indeed correct; Shrek Academy is truly extraordinary.

Zhu Zhuyue's expression remained relatively calm, only showing slight surprise when she learned that the level 71 Soul Saint Shao Xin was a food-type Soul Master.

For an intermediate-level Soul Master Academy, having a Soul Emperor as a teacher is indeed a luxury, but Shrek Academy's admission standards are comparable to those of advanced-level Soul Master Academy.

In advanced Soul Master Academy, the Dean is usually Soul Douluo or even Titled Douluo, with the lowest rank being Soul Saint. The teachers are ranked according to their grade level, ranging from Soul Ancestor to Soul Emperor.

After all, students who can enter advanced Soul Master Academy are already Soul Grandmaster upon enrollment, and many of them are Soul Ancestor upon graduation. The Soul Power Level of teachers cannot be lower than that of students, so the lowest level of teachers is Soul Ancestor.

Zhu Zhuyue knew that the president and vice Dean of the Star Luo Royal Academy were two Soul Douluo, there were three Soul Saint, and nearly ten Soul Emperors. Ordinary Soul Ancestor could not even get into the Star Luo Royal Academy to become teachers.

However, food-type Soul Emperors are indeed rare, and this was the first time Zhu Zhuyue had encountered one.

Flender then introduced Yu Xiaogang: "This last one, I want to introduce him to everyone in detail. He is the one who, through his own research, derived the competitiveness of the top ten Martial Soul and is hailed as the strongest in Martial Soul Theory and the most intelligent Soul Master."

"He is also Tang San's teacher, Mr. Yu Xiaogang. You may not be familiar with his name, but I think you should have heard of his title. From now on, you can just call him Yu Xiaogang."

Upon hearing the word "Yu Xiaogang," everyone's spirits lifted, and their gazes all turned to Tang San. Although they didn't know much about the Yu Xiaogang, how could a teacher who could train such an outstanding disciple as Tang San not be excellent?

Tang San is Yu Xiaogang's living advertisement!

Zhu Zhuyue is also eagerly anticipating Yu Xiaogang Yu Xiaogang's next training plan.

·······························

The next day, Zhu Zhuyue saw the master chef, wearing a white chef's hat, bustling around in the kitchen. Finally, he brought out a Yu Xiaogang of meat soup, his eyes glazed over...

This must be some kind of special nutritional supplement, right? After all, it's food made by the Yu Xiaogang who trained Tang San; it must have something special about it.

With this in mind, Zhu Zhuyue prepared a breakfast: meat soup with steamed buns and an egg.

Zhu Zhuyue smelled the meat broth and faintly detected a medicinal fragrance. She took a bite, and the meat melted in her mouth, incredibly delicious, with a familiar medicinal aroma lingering on her lips and teeth...

Isn't this a medicinal diet commonly used among nobles?

Chapter 140 Martial Soul Awakening Pill and Qian Daoliu

Isn't this a medicinal diet commonly used among nobles?

Zhu Zhuyue, still unconvinced, took another bite. It was indeed just ordinary medicinal food, a must-have for children from noble Soul Master families to strengthen their bodies.

It's generally only effective when taken during childhood.

Zhu Zhuyue stiffly raised her head and looked at Yu Xiaogang, who was still looking at them with loving eyes. A bad premonition suddenly welled up in her heart.
