As Long As You Pay, Even the Dean Can Be a Cross-dressing Boss!

Flender was feeling quite pleased at the moment.

The academy had recruited four monsters today, one of them a super monster!

Twelve years old, level sixty-five Soul Power!

If he cultivated for a few more years, wouldn't he become a Soul Douluo, or even a Titled Douluo?

Shrek Academy was going to become famous!

So what was with Dai Mubai?

Although he was a rare prodigy of the academy, how could he cause trouble outside?

If he was caught by the Spirit Hall enforcement team, he definitely wouldn't get out easily.

Thinking of this, his mood relaxed.

He would first settle these students, binding them completely to the academy.

If a super monster like Lin Ye went to another academy, he would never forgive himself in this lifetime.

Leading the four into the academy, they ran into Zhao Wuji head-on.

"Dai Mubai didn't come back?"

Zhao Wuji wasn't surprised to see Lin Ye and the other three.

They must have encountered trouble in Soto City.

"Oh, Dai Mubai's situation is a bit complicated, and it might take some time."

"Old Zhao, you recruited such excellent students, why didn't you notify me first?"

Flender was somewhat displeased.

Such monstrous students should have been rushed here at full speed, directly plucked from Soto City.

It made him feel a bit awkward.

He thought of being pranked by a few girls, and he still couldn't let it go.

If Lin Ye hadn't saved him, he would still be hurting now.

Little Demoness, they were definitely Little Demoness level.

But their talent was indeed good, and with Lin Ye there, he couldn't bear to scold them.

Zhao Wuji grinned widely, "I wanted to give you a surprise. Aren't you surprised, aren't you shocked?"

"It is indeed a great surprise. Have you made arrangements?"

Flender was truly happy now. Even if he had to sell everything he owned, he had to keep these students.

"Of course, arrangements have been made. The best dormitories!"

"That's good!"

As the two chatted, they seemed to have completely forgotten about Lin Ye and the other three.

"Dean, are you sure those are the best dormitories?"

Ning Rongrong couldn't help herself. Being ignored felt very unpleasant.

"They are definitely the best dormitories in the academy!"

Flender was very sure. If Zhao Wuji said they were the best, then they must be.

"But... they're too run-down?"

Ning Rongrong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could he call those dormitories the best?

Speaking of this issue, Flender also felt a bit embarrassed.

The academy's conditions were indeed poor, and it had been difficult to persevere all these years.

The main reason was extreme poverty, lacking sufficient funds to renovate the academy's environment.

After all, by refusing external funding, they had lost their most important source of income.

For a Soul Master Academy, tuition fees alone were far from enough.

The largest source of funding was sponsorship from various powers.

The Balak Kingdom had indeed offered to provide funding.

If there were royal funding, the academy's environment would definitely be excellent, at least reaching the scale of an Advanced Soul Master Academy.

But Flender had refused.

Because the condition proposed by the Balak Kingdom was that Shrek students would have to join the kingdom after graduation.

This was equivalent to restricting the students' future.

How could Flender, who wanted to cultivate monsters, possibly accept such a thing?

Therefore, the operation of Shrek Academy had always been a huge problem.

At many times, they couldn't even pay the teachers' salaries, and could only delay them.

"This... the academy's conditions are quite difficult right now, can you make do with it for now?"

He said this while secretly glancing at Lin Ye.

The most important thing was Lin Ye!

If Lin Ye left because of the environment, it would be tragic.

Given Lin Ye's talent, any Advanced Soul Master Academy would be eager to have him.

Even the Spirit Hall Academy would be clamoring for him, and would pour a large amount of resources into him.

After all, who could ignore a sixty-fifth level Soul Emperor at the age of twelve?

Ning Rongrong nodded. The environment was a bit run-down, but it was indeed passable.

She was here to have fun, after all, as long as it wasn't too bothersome.

But at this moment, Lin Ye's inner thoughts surfaced again.

[Flender is indeed good to his students, but he's too proud, which is why the academy is so poor.]

[He refused the conditions for funding from the Balak Kingdom, all to protect the students.]

[However, he seems to know nothing about making money, and can only rely on trickery and deception.]

[For Flender, if you give him money now, he'd even become a Cross-dressing Boss!]

The three girls: "!!!"

A Cross-dressing Boss, really?

Had the academy fallen to such a state?

If not for the students' exceptional talent, they would have suspected it was a Black-hearted Academy.

However, Ning Rongrong's eyes twinkled, and she seemed to have an idea.

"Dean, if our Seven Treasures Glazed Sect were to fund the academy, could the environment be improved?"

"Hmm? Seven Treasures Glazed Sect?"

Flender was taken aback, knowing she was from the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.

But the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect had never had any connection with Shrek Academy.

Funding was likely out of the question.

However, with Ning Rongrong saying this, there might be a glimmer of hope.

Yet, the experience with the Balak Kingdom was still fresh in his mind.

Because the academy had refused their terms, the kingdom had been somewhat targeting them.

In some matters, the academy would encounter difficulties.

To put it bluntly, the kingdom was making things difficult.

Although the academy could overcome these obstacles, how to describe that feeling?

It was like a toad on one's foot – it wouldn't bite, but it was disgusting.

If the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect were to propose similar conditions, how could he possibly agree?

Ning Rongrong said with a smile, "Yes, I think the academy's teachers are quite capable, it's just the environment that's a bit poor, so I'd like to fund the academy."

"Of course, the academy must agree to some of my conditions."

Conditions!

Flender thought without hesitation, "No need!"

He was now hypersensitive to the word "conditions."

Zhao Wuji also pondered if the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect knew of Shrek Academy's existence and intended to absorb it.

And had sent Ning Rongrong to investigate.

Otherwise, it was truly difficult to understand why the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect would agree to send their little princess to the academy.

If it was for better cultivation, wouldn't the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect be better?

After all, there were two Titled Douluo there, as well as some Soul Douluo.

It was far superior to their academy.

"Dean, don't be so quick to refuse, let me state my conditions first?"

Ning Rongrong had already deduced some issues from Lin Ye's inner thoughts.

She had already formulated a counter-strategy in her mind.

Flender hesitated for a moment and said, "Then tell me your conditions first."

"Alright, my condition is that after the funding, the academy must allocate special funds for improving the students' living environment, such as rebuilding dormitory buildings, individual ones!"

"Impossible! The harsh environment is a test for the students, how can we..."

"And also build individual dormitories for teachers, teaching buildings, and so on."

"No problem, only a fool would insist on hardship when it's not necessary."

Flender's tone changed instantly.

Individual dormitories and such, too good to be true!

He never thought he'd have the chance to live in such a dormitory, thank heaven for sending this little princess, boundless love!
