"Damn it! Tang Hao and that traitor's son both got away!"

Demon Subduing Douluo said angrily. In his view, they had finally gotten a chance to capture Tang Hao, yet he had still escaped!

"But it doesn't matter. This is a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, so it belongs to us now."

Qianjun Douluo said.

Xiao Wu no longer had the strength to resist. She had wanted to fight back, but she had been effortlessly knocked to the ground and had lost all ability to resist.

"Damn it!" Xiao Wu said furiously.

"This 100,000-year rabbit is very likely the one Bibi Dong let go back then."

"Take her back first. We'll use her when the time comes."

Thus, the Offering Douluos chose to leave the city. The city also became famous because of the earlier battle between Titled Douluos.

Meanwhile, the teachers of Shrek Academy, the Seven Treasures Three Giants, and Ning Rongrong had left the city. They were now outside Soto City.

"Headmaster Flender, I would like to know whether my precious daughter has grown during her time at Shrek Academy. My daughter is known as the little witch of Seven Treasures. She is usually very disobedient, so I hope to learn whether she has caused you any trouble at school."

"Well..." Flender was drenched in sweat at this moment. He truly did not know what to say. The reason was simple: Shrek had taken Ning Rongrong in less than a week ago, and at the beginning of the term, she had defied Flender and failed to complete the assigned training task.

One had to know that Flender had deliberately made that task difficult for Ning Rongrong from the start. His purpose was to make her more obedient, so that she would be easier to brainwash and make work for Shrek.

Moreover, Shrek was a remote backwater. Although its teaching staff was very strong, its training environment was truly terrible. With Soul Sages and Soul Emperors, it could be considered a high-level Soul Master academy, even stronger than many intermediate academies.

But its facilities and resources were plainly terrible. It did not even measure up to an intermediate academy, and Shrek was an academy unrecognized by both Spirit Hall and the authorities.

It was basically an unlicensed, unaccredited, unsupported academy.

Because it had no source of income, it could only swindle enrollment fees from applicants. Those who failed the test did not get their money back. The food was pickled vegetables, steamed buns, and eggs. Over the years, Shrek had produced only fourteen graduates.

Before Tang San, only forty-two students had been admitted over the span of twenty years, and only fourteen had truly graduated.

According to Dai Mubai, these students either died while hunting Soul Beasts or were expelled from the academy for failing to meet the graduation requirements within the stipulated time.

It could be said that this academy was a scam, and a brainwashing one at that. Flender knew all of this, but he had done it deliberately, all for the sake of cheating people out of money.

They called it teaching geniuses rather than teaching trash, but truly outstanding academies turned trash into geniuses. Shrek Academy only taught geniuses, but geniuses were already geniuses to begin with. Did they even need Shrek to teach them?!

It had also cheated many innocent poor people out of their money. These families' money had largely been earned through Soul Master subsidies and their own hard work.

Ten Gold Soul Coins were enough to cover a person's household expenses for more than ten months, yet Shrek simply swindled it away without refunding it. This was clearly an MLM criminal gang.

Flender also knew in his heart that he was nothing more than a fraudster who deceived others. But he could not say that out loud, or how would he continue cheating people for money?

He had originally thought that a genius from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect had arrived, so he could fleece the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Besides, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was wealthy and powerful; even if he cheated them out of some money, they would not care.

But Ning Rongrong had not yet been brainwashed by Shrek Academy... no, reformed. How could she possibly take Shrek's side?!

"Father, I did not study seriously at Shrek Academy, and at first, I even talked back to Headmaster Flender."

Ning Rongrong did not know what to say either. She did not know what kind of academy Shrek was, because she had not understood it herself. Moreover, she had defied Flender at the beginning of the term, making things very awkward.

"Tell me first what you have seen at Shrek Academy. Tell me what this academy is like. If you think it is acceptable, you can continue studying here."

"Alright. When I came to Shrek Academy, the first thing was that enrollment required ten Gold Soul Coins, but those who failed the test would not get their enrollment fee back. Then, I heard that Shrek Academy had only admitted forty-two students so far, with only fourteen actually graduating. Some students were expelled for failing to meet the graduation requirements, while some died while hunting Soul Beasts. That Dai Mubai also said the academy only taught monsters, not trash. That was why it was called Monster Academy."

"When Tang San and I passed the test, the dormitories we lived in were village houses, and the food was pickled vegetables, steamed buns, and eggs. The training methods were basically things like running. Headmaster Flender initially made me run to train my survival skills. I did not want to run, so I talked back to him..."

"Wait! You said Shrek charged ten Gold Soul Coins for enrollment, but the dormitories were village houses, and the food was pickled vegetables, eggs, and steamed buns? There was no meat?! And they did not refund the enrollment fee to those who failed the test!"

As Ning Fengzhi listened to Ning Rongrong, he found it very strange.

"Rongrong, you said the academy had admitted only forty-two students so far, but only fourteen had graduated. Some were expelled for failing to meet the graduation requirements, while some died in the process of hunting Soul Beasts. But these students should only have needed to hunt Thousand-Year Soul Rings, so how could they die in the jaws of Soul Beasts? The academy's teachers were Soul Emperors and Soul Sages. That should basically put it at the level of a high-level Soul Master academy, shouldn't it?"

After hearing Ning Rongrong, Chen Xin was speechless. What kind of academy was this? Was it an MLM criminal organization?!

"And running training—what kind of outdated training method is that? Isn't that something only beginner and intermediate students would use? And they only teach monsters, not trash. What kind of Monster Academy is that?"

Gu Rong also voiced what puzzled him. Wasn't this kind of running training only used by relatively low-level or intermediate Soul Master academies? Advanced students did not use this kind of training method anymore.

A powerful academy should turn trash into monsters, shouldn't it?

"That was basically what I saw and heard about Shrek Academy."

Although Ning Rongrong did not understand what kind of academy Shrek was, she still told them what she had seen. At that moment, the Seven Treasures Three Giants understood what Shrek truly was.

Three Giants: Shrek was a cancer in the Soul Master world!

But after an even more outrageous matter was revealed, they were completely speechless.

"They also said that Shrek Academy's greatest graduate was Spirit Hall's youngest elder, whose authority was second only to the Pope's."

"Heh heh heh." Ning Fengzhi understood at that moment that Shrek Academy was nothing but a scam. If they really had such an impressive student, they would have become famous long ago. Why would they still need to swindle money? Besides, how had he never heard of an elder of Spirit Hall who had been a Shrek student? It was obviously a lie!

Flender and the others were immediately terrified.

"Well..."

"Flender!"

In an instant, the Seven Treasures Three Giants unleashed their Martial Souls. In that instant, Shrek's Soul Emperor and Soul Sage teachers, along with its headmaster, were all suppressed.

"You... are finished!"
