"Change classes?"

Du Weilun was not at all surprised that Ling Feng knew something about Zhou Yi.

Those who could come straight to him to handle enrollment procedures generally had special backgrounds.

A student with talent like Ling Feng's was surely backed by no weak faction.

As for changing classes—

With his position as dean of studies, it was nothing more than a word.

But with that madwoman Zhou Yi's temperament, if she learned there was a genius who had reached Rank 29 at twelve and he had not assigned him to her, who knew what trouble she would stir up again.

She might casually whisper something into her husband Fan Yu's ear, and the soul tools Du Weilun wanted would mysteriously get held up in approval.

More importantly—

If every student were like Ling Feng, asking to change classes the moment they heard Zhou Yi was their homeroom teacher—

Sooner or later, her class might not have a single student left.

If such a serious teaching accident occurred, would Zhou Yi reflect on her own problems?

Of course not!

She would only think that everyone she expelled was trash, then complain that Du Weilun kept giving her useless students.

In the end, Du Weilun would still be the one with a headache.

"Teacher Zhou is quite excellent. Her class has the highest pass rate in the entire grade every year."

"Besides, she was just transferred down from the upper grades, so she has abundant teaching experience."

"As for her shortcomings, she is merely somewhat stricter than most. But since ancient times, strict teachers have produced outstanding students..."

Du Weilun spoke without so much as a blush.

After all, most of what he said was true.

As for the actual truth—

Don't ask.

"I still think another class would be a little better." Ling Feng saw Du Weilun's dilemma. "Is it difficult?"

Hearing this, Du Weilun somehow felt that if he did not agree, Ling Feng would flip the table the next second.

"It isn't difficult, but..."

After thinking it over, Du Weilun tested the waters. "How about this? You study in Class One for one month first."

"One month later, if you truly feel Teacher Zhou's teaching methods do not suit you, come find me anytime. I'll transfer you to another class."

"What do you think?"

Hearing that, Ling Feng's brows furrowed tightly.

What did this mean?

Had the Sugar God King exerted his influence?

Was he determined to tie him to Huo Yuhao's original path?

But he quickly figured it all out.

Du Weilun was simply afraid that if Ling Feng went to another class, Zhou Yi would feel unhappy and have Fan Yu make things difficult for him!

And Du Weilun had made it very clear.

After one month, as long as he was dissatisfied, he could transfer classes then.

Besides, why wait a month? Once school started, he could just argue with Zhou Yi a couple of times and get himself expelled.

Ling Luocheng was an Inner Court disciple, and he himself could be considered a genius of the same generation.

Could Shrek Academy really expel him?

Even if they do, it's fine. As long as it doesn't affect my check-ins.

Ling Feng thought to himself.

Seeing Ling Feng fall silent, Du Weilun was about to persuade him further when Ling Feng nodded at him.

"Then I'll follow the teacher's arrangements."

"Good!" Du Weilun immediately beamed.

If Ling Feng ran off to another class later, at least Fan Yu and Zhou Yi would not be able to blame him.

"I am the dean of studies for the Martial Soul Department of Shrek Academy's Outer Court. My surname is Du. You may have heard of me."

After thinking for a moment, Ling Feng recognized the man before him. "Director Du Weilun."

Hearing that Ling Feng really knew him, Du Weilun lightly patted Ling Feng on the shoulder.

"Good child. Here are your freshman badge and dormitory key. Go tidy up your dormitory first."

"There are still three days until school starts. You can use this time to familiarize yourself with the academy grounds."

After leaving the Academic Affairs Office, Ling Feng glanced down at the dormitory key in his hand.

"108? This room number sounds kind of familiar."

After passing through the teaching building, he soon saw the dormitory buildings, each painted in different colors.

Before long, Ling Feng spotted a frail old man at the entrance of the white dormitory building.

"That must be Mu En, the master of the Sea God Pavilion, right?"

Compared to Xuan Zi, Mu En was relatively normal. At the very least, when he had something good, he genuinely gave it away.

Ling Feng walked over, intending to make an impression on Mu En.

"Sir, where's Dorm 108?"

"One-zero-what?"

"108!" Ling Feng raised his voice.

"What-zero-eight?"

"108!!" Ling Feng was practically shouting now.

"One-what-eight?"

"...?"

Was this old man messing with him?

"Sir, you should get some rest."

"Alrighty."

Ling Feng silently took back his earlier thoughts.

Mu En was absolutely a damned old geezer!!!

Only after Ling Feng entered the dormitory building did Mu En glance at his retreating back.

"An interesting child..."

The room numbers were arranged in the usual order, and Ling Feng quickly found his dormitory.

Unlocking the door with his key, he was hit by a wave of slightly stale air.

"This dorm manager really doesn't care, huh? At least air the place out!"

Holding back the unpleasant smell, Ling Feng rushed into the room and opened the window.

With both the door and window open, a strong gust swept through, and the strange odor in the room quickly dispersed.

He casually shut the door and looked over the dormitory's furnishings.

It was around ten square meters, with one desk, two metal lockers, and a lamp—a very basic setup.

"I'll check in here."

After all, this was his first check-in, and the reward was Huo Yuhao's template. What if it caused some commotion or took a while?

He also had no idea what this template actually meant.

Could it be that Skydream Iceworm, the Ice Empress, and Electrolux would be directly sent into his spiritual world?

Surely it wouldn't make him go through Huo Yuhao's experiences all over again, would it?

If that was really the case, he would rather not have this system at all.

After briefly cleaning the dust off the wooden bed and making sure he would not end up with a dusty ass, Ling Feng finally sat down cross-legged.

"Check in!"

As Ling Feng silently spoke in his heart, a string of system notifications immediately rang out in his mind.

"Congratulations, Host, on completing your first check-in!"

"First martial soul, Ice Scorpion, evolving... Martial soul replaced: Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion!"

"Second martial soul being unlocked... Complete. Second martial soul granted: Spirit Eyes!"

"Soul skills being adjusted..."

As his martial souls and soul skills changed, Ling Feng's aura gradually changed as well...

Outside the dormitory building.

Mu En still reclined in his chair, sensing the youthful vitality of the students. His life, which had nearly burned out, seemed to have been prolonged for another moment.

As though sensing some change, Mu En abruptly opened his eyes and nearly leaped to his feet.

He had clearly sensed an extremely powerful ferocious beast aura!

Not a soul beast, but a ferocious beast!

Only soul beasts with cultivation exceeding a hundred thousand years could be called ferocious beasts!

Although that trace of aura was so faint it was nearly impossible to detect, he was Mu En, the strongest person in Shrek Academy!

After discovering that the change had come from the dormitory building, his taut nerves relaxed somewhat. Yet his vast spiritual power continued to search for the anomaly as countless possibilities ran through his mind.

When he finally discovered that the source of it all was Ling Feng, Mu En froze on the spot. Only after repeatedly confirming that Ling Feng was not a soul beast in human form did he recover after a long while.

"An interesting brat... Looks like I'll have to keep a closer eye on him."
