What worried the academy most was undoubtedly recruitment, a matter that had to be considered even before the school term began.
The academy's educational resources were now practically excessive. A few boys who had only just stepped onto the path of Spirit Masters were not enough to consume all the teachers' energy.
Qin Ming alone could even handle those four children, with Zhao Wuji at most assisting with physical training while Flender kept an eye on the overall direction.
Raising those children would indeed be enough to make a name for themselves, but Flender would not forsake true geniuses. Having both was the proper path.
In the original novel, Oscar's Martial Soul had been Sausage, but in this world, his Martial Soul was the Food God.
There were others whose Martial Souls carried the suffix of a god. For instance, Bo Saixi, the high priestess of Sea God Island, possessed the Sea God Martial Soul and was hailed as the Sea God's representative.
Yet the Sea God Martial Soul in the story had been a god-bestowed Martial Soul granted by the first Sea God. In other words, it had not been an innate Martial Soul.
For Oscar, a commoner orphan with no background whatsoever, to awaken the Food God Martial Soul directly in this world—it was easy to imagine just how extraordinary his talent was.
Flender even suspected that the true Food God had taken a liking to this child and bestowed a blessing upon him.
But that was only speculation. No one knew the truth.
Flender could not be bothered to think too much about it. Taking in this food-type genius and nurturing him properly was enough.
"Te-teacher, this is...?"
Holding the glowing crystal ball, Oscar did not dare move at all, afraid that he might accidentally break it.
