Class Nine's Class Monitor, Gu Shengge

Class Nine's Class Monitor, Gu Shengge

Dorm 209.

"Brother Gu, everyone's here."

Following Gu Shengge's instructions, Han Yue had gathered the freshmen Zhou Yi had expelled from Class One. There were nine in total. The moment they heard there was a way to remain at Shrek Academy, they eagerly came to find Gu Shengge.

Gu Shengge looked at the nine freshmen and said with a smile, "I imagine you are all quite dissatisfied with Teacher Zhou Yi."

"Of course we are! I only ran two fewer laps, and she said my intentions were impure and that I would bring disaster upon the continent in the future. She even threatened to cripple my Martial Soul. She's outrageous!"

Tai Long's face was full of fury. He hated Zhou Yi to the core.

The other eight freshmen nodded in agreement. Zhou Yi was making a mountain out of a molehill. They had slacked off and run two fewer laps, but that Huo Yuhao was even more shameless. He had actually flown, and only managed to finish with someone else's help. That was slacking off too.

Why were only they expelled while Huo Yuhao was not expelled alongside them? This was blatant discrimination!

Looking at the nine indignant freshmen, Gu Shengge maintained his smile, growing even more disdainful of Zhou Yi. Fortunately, Shrek Academy only had one teacher like her.

With Zhou Yi's method of teaching—insulting students at every turn, threatening them with expulsion, and intimidating them with the threat of crippling their Martial Souls—Gu Shengge saw only the roots of the hatred that would create countless Evil Soul Masters in the future. He saw none of the so-called light or strength.

If students had improper intentions, then as a teacher, one should correct and guide them, leading them onto the proper path.

Expelling them outright meant that no one would teach them the right values in life. Was that not simply allowing them to continue down the wrong path?

What kind of teacher punished without teaching? If they were expelled and recognized their mistakes, never offending again, then their lives would still be ruined, because their teacher had permanently cut off their path to a normal education. If they turned bad in the end, who would be to blame?

The teacher? Or the students?

After they had finished venting, Gu Shengge slowly spoke. "Since you are all so dissatisfied with Teacher Zhou Yi, you can go to the Academic Affairs Office and file a complaint. Don't forget, Teacher Zhou Yi threatened us with expulsion before, but when we stood together, the academy sided with the students rather than the teacher. Besides, Teacher Zhou Yi is applying a double standard. Why are you being expelled for running two fewer laps while Huo Yuhao isn't? He didn't finish by running either. He flew, after all. That doesn't comply with the rules."

The nine freshmen felt that Gu Shengge's words made perfect sense. If they were going to be expelled, then Huo Yuhao should be expelled with them. Why should only they be thrown out?

"That's right! Let's go complain to the Academic Affairs Office again!"

"Yeah! If they're expelling people, expel that Huo Yuhao too!"

"That Zhou woman is abusing her authority for personal revenge. I refuse to accept this!"

"Come on! Let's report her!"

Watching the agitated crowd, Gu Shengge signaled Han Yue with his eyes to open the door. The nine freshmen rushed out of the dormitory in a panic, hurrying to the Academic Affairs Office to report Zhou Yi once more.

Han Yue watched the freshmen's departing figures and asked Gu Shengge, "Brother Gu, do you think they'll succeed?"

Gu Shengge picked up his teacup and took a light sip. "It doesn't matter whether they succeed or not. Besides, Zhou Yi isn't my target."

"Not Teacher Zhou? Then who is?"

Han Yue was puzzled.

Gu Shengge did not answer his question. Instead, he told Han Yue to follow those freshmen, see how the matter was ultimately handled, and report the result back to him afterward.

Han Yue nodded and quickly left the dormitory.

Gu Shengge set down his teacup and looked out the window, a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

If he could use this opportunity to drive Huo Yuhao out of Shrek Academy, that would not be bad either.

Although Huo Yuhao had no conflict with him, Gu Shengge was the rebuilder of Spirit Hall, while Huo Yuhao was the one destined to revive the Tang Sect. Their identities made them natural adversaries.

Over half an hour later, Han Yue returned, and the news he brought was exactly as Gu Shengge had expected.

The nine freshmen had not been expelled. Under the Academic Affairs Office's reassignment, they had been placed in other classes. As for Huo Yuhao, he was completely unharmed. After all, he was a specially admitted student of the Tang Sect. He could not be expelled over such a trivial matter. Even though the Tang Sect had declined, its reputation still had to be respected.

Gu Shengge instructed Han Yue, "Invite those nine freshmen to dinner tonight. See if we can recruit them into Spirit Hall."

Han Yue nodded. "Understood, Brother Gu."

Seeing that the lunch break was nearly over, the two left the dormitory and headed for their respective classrooms.

Freshman Teaching Building, Year One Class Nine.

Most of the students had already arrived. Gu Shengge returned to his seat and sat down. A gentle breeze drifted in through the window, lifting several strands of his platinum hair. His nearly perfect profile left the female students around him utterly entranced.

As the class bell rang, Mu Jin entered the classroom and stepped onto the podium. Her gaze fell upon Gu Shengge, and disbelief flickered across her delicate face. A storm raged in her heart, impossible to calm.

Curious about Gu Shengge's background, she had deliberately gone to the Academic Affairs Office during lunch break to check his detailed records. It was one thing not to look, but the moment she did, she was shocked.

A Soul Elder actually possessed three 100,000-Year Soul Rings. Such a terrifying Soul Ring configuration had never appeared anywhere on the continent before!

Mu Jin inwardly mocked Zhou Yi for her shortsightedness. Zhou Yi had driven such a peerless genius out of her class, allowing Mu Jin to pick up an enormous bargain.

Thinking of this, Mu Jin's gaze toward Gu Shengge became incomparably gentle. She had to hold on tight to this treasure.

Mu Jin withdrew her gaze, cleared her throat, and said softly with smiling eyes:

"Students, before class begins, Teacher has one more announcement. Based on the entrance results of everyone in our class, Gu Shengge has the best results. Teacher has decided to appoint him as Class Nine's class monitor. Of course, if any of you can defeat him, then you will become the new class monitor."

Hearing that Gu Shengge would become class monitor, the students of Class Nine were all bewildered. Was that transfer student really that strong? Was his Soul Power even higher than Ning Tian's?

Ning Tian was already a level twenty-nine Soul Grandmaster, only one step away from becoming a Soul Elder. Could Gu Shengge possibly be a Soul Elder?

Ning Tian could not help looking toward Gu Shengge, who was leaning by the window.

Seeing the students' puzzled expressions, Mu Jin looked at Gu Shengge again and spoke softly. "Gu Shengge, you transferred to Class Nine and have not introduced yourself yet. Take this opportunity to introduce yourself."

At that, Gu Shengge stood up. At the same time, he felt the gazes of Class Nine's students gathering on him. In an indifferent voice, he introduced himself.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Gu Shengge. My Martial Soul is the Holy Angel. I am a level thirty-three Battle Soul Elder."

He really was a Soul Elder! And his Soul Power had already reached level thirty-three!

After hearing his introduction, the Class Nine students all revealed astonished expressions. The gazes of some of the female students grew increasingly gentle and bright.

Wu Feng's little mouth fell open. She had thought her young mistress's talent was already exceptional, but she had unexpectedly encountered someone even more formidable. Which family's direct descendant was he?

Mu Jin nodded for Gu Shengge to sit down. The smile on her lovely face deepened as she announced once more to the Class Nine students:

"Good. From this day onward, Gu Shengge will be Class Nine's class monitor!"
