I Only Want to Go to Second-Year Class One
The Radiant Phoenix Martial Soul, a level 95 Super Douluo.
When Yan Shaozhe came in, he was very approachable. He casually pulled up a chair and sat down next to Du Weilun, first glancing around at the young people in the room.
"Huabin, it's you again."
Yan Shaozhe spoke casually, with the familiarity of an elder towards a younger person.
Last semester, Dai Huabin made a stir that seemed to make him "Reign Over the World," so he couldn't avoid getting to know him.
"Dean Yan." Dai Huabin stood up and bowed slightly.
Yan Shaozhe waved his hand, gesturing for him to sit down, and then turned his gaze to the three girls standing in the office.
Zhu Lu stood properly at the very door, and when she saw the dean enter, she instinctively stood even straighter.
Ice Empress didn't react much, still looking at the Soul Beast chart on the wall, her emerald green twin ponytails swaying behind her head.
Snow Empress stood in place, her white hair reaching the ground, her sky-blue pupils calmly gazing over.
Yan Shaozhe's gaze lingered on Ice Empress for about two seconds.
In those two seconds, his mind was already racing with a series of thoughts.
Du Weilun had told him on the way that the green-haired girl named Bing Hanyue claimed she had no talent for cultivation and wanted to stay at the academy as an auditor to accompany her younger sister.
No talent for cultivation?
Yan Shaozhe almost burst out laughing.
He was a level 95 Super Douluo, and his perception of Soul Power fluctuations was incredibly precise.
Although Ice Empress did not release her Martial Soul or Soul Ring, her restrained Soul Power was impossible to hide.
It was an extremely rich and pure ice-elemental energy, so concentrated that even he, the holder of the Radiant Phoenix Martial Soul, felt a sense of pressure.
This level of Soul Power...
Yan Shaozhe quickly deduced in his mind that it was at least at the level of Titled Douluo, and not an ordinary Titled Douluo.
Combining this with what Du Weilun said, "Xue Qingyao, the Ultimate Ice, a level 65 Soul Emperor," Yan Shaozhe had already made a judgment in his mind.
This girl named Bing Hanyue is most likely Xue Qingyao's protector.
In the Soul Master World, some young Soul Master with extreme talent often have one or more high-level experts standing behind them as protectors, escorting them all the way until they grow up.
Such things are not uncommon in the royal families and top aristocratic families of major empires.
It makes perfect sense for a genius with Ultimate Ice skills to be paired with a protector at the level of a Titled Douluo.
Yan Shaozhe did not expose it.
He's lived most of his life, and he's best at these kinds of things. If they say he has no talent for cultivation, then he doesn't. Why expose them?
Moreover, the fact that the other party was willing to let this genius come to the Shrek Academy is itself a sign of trust. It would be foolish for him to come up and pry into everything.
"Director Du told me the general situation," Yan Shaozhe, his tone unhurried. "Miss Xue wants to enroll, and Miss Han Yue wants to audit classes, is that what you mean?"
"Yes," Dai Huabin answered readily.
Yan Shaozhe turned to Snow Empress: "Miss Xue, would you mind releasing your Soul Ring again so I can see it?"
Without further ado, Snow Empress's Soul Ring lit up once more.
Yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black.
Six Soul Ring rose in succession, and the Soul Power fluctuations of the three ten-thousand-year-old black rings spread throughout the office. Yan Shaozhe's sleeves billowed slightly from the cold air.
Yan Shaozhe nodded, his expression calm, but he was already making plans in his mind.
A level 65 Soul Emperor, the Ultimate Ice, who appears to be no more than eighteen years old.
This kind of talent is among the best in the entire continent.
If the Ultimate Ice Martial Soul is cultivated properly, becoming Limit Douluo is a certainty!
Shrek Academy must keep this person.
As for her request to be in the same class as Dai Huabin?
Those are minor matters.
"Miss Xue, I have witnessed your strength." Yan Shaozhe raised his hand, signaling Snow Empress to retract her Soul Ring. "To be honest, with your Soul Power Level, you are more than qualified to enter the Inner Academy directly."
Du Weilun nodded vigorously beside him.
A level 65 Soul Emperor, let alone the Inner Academy, giving her a teaching position wouldn't be unreasonable.
"But..."
Snow Empress interrupted him.
"I'm only going to Second-Year Class One. Han Yue and I are going with Huabin."
Yan Shaozhe was taken aback.
Du Weilun coughed softly twice beside him.
Dai Huabin leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, a helpless expression on his face.
Yan Shaozhe pondered for a moment.
It's indeed a bit outrageous that a Soul Emperor would be sitting in a second-year class attending lessons.
But then I thought about it again. Shrek Academy's core has never been about teaching in a step-by-step manner, but about cultivating and retaining geniuses.
"Okay," Yan Shaozhe readily agreed.
Du Weilun opened his mouth, then closed it again. The dean had already agreed; what could he say?
"However, I have a small suggestion."
Yan Shaozhe continued,
"Miss Xue's abilities far surpass those of second-year students, and regular classes won't be of much help to you. Therefore, without affecting class activities, I can arrange for the Inner Academy teacher to give you extra lessons. What do you think?"
Snow Empress thought for two seconds and nodded.
"Can."
Dai Huabin breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Shaozhe's arrangement was very clever. It satisfied Snow Empress's request without wasting her time, and at the same time, it allowed the teachers of the Inner Academy to establish contact with Snow Empress, laying the groundwork for recruiting people into the Inner Academy in the future.
What a cunning old fox.
"What about Miss Han Yue?" Yan Shaozhe asked Ice Empress.
Ice Empress spoke without hesitation:
"I'll just live with Xue'er."
Yan Shaozhe nodded with a smile, "No problem, I'll arrange your status as auditors, and we'll also provide you with a separate dormitory room."
He paused, then looked at Dai Huabin: "Huabin, I'll trouble you to take good care of these two young ladies' daily lives."
"Of course."
Yan Shaozhe stood up, walked to Snow Empress, and cupped his hands in greeting.
Welcome to Shrek.
Snow Empress nodded slightly in return.
Yan Shaozhe glanced at Ice Empress again, his face still bearing a gentle smile.
Ice Empress grinned at him, revealing two small fangs.
Yan Shaozhe sighed inwardly. This protector, who "lacked cultivation talent," did have a rather cute smile, but the icy Soul Power emanating from him, which even made a level 95 Super Douluo feel uneasy, was truly a bit out of place.
Never mind, let's not delve into it.
She can't cause any trouble at Shrek.
Then, Yan Shaozhe pushed open the door and left.
He wasn't in a hurry to win over the Ice Empress and the Snow Empress, since the two of them were going to be with Dai Huabin, and Dai Huabin was probably going to enter the Inner Academy soon.
Once Dai Huabin and the others enter the Inner Academy, we can try to win them over further.
The moment the door closed, Du Weilun let out a long breath and pulled out a few forms, handing them to Dai Huabin.
"Fill out the enrollment forms, Xue Qingyao's official student status and Bing Hanyue's auditing certificate. I'll get them done for you today."
Dai Huabin took the form, picked up the pen on the table, and began to fill it out.
Before long, the four of them walked out of the Academic Affairs Office and headed towards the academy gate along the cobblestone path.
