Learning of Tang San's Genius, Yu Xiaogang Burned with Excitement; Ning Rongrong Wanted to Become a Disciple

Li Yusong's mouth twitched.

If this kid had no intention of enrolling, what was he doing at Shrek Academy's admissions desk?

Considering that Tang San and Xiao Wu had come together, and both possessed outstanding talent, their master had to be powerful. Li Yusong did not dare press the issue and merely glared at Dai Mubai.

Fine. Even if he could not recruit the boy, the girl was impressive too.

With that thought, Li Yusong turned to Xiao Wu. "Since your friend isn't enrolling, follow Mubai to the other testing areas first."

One corner of Xiao Wu's mouth curled into a mischievous grin. "Oh, I only took the test to prove my talent. I want to stay with Little San, so I'm not enrolling."

Li Yusong was furious, his chest heaving.

Damn it, two geniuses stood right in front of him, yet neither would enroll. What an enormous loss!

"Even if you don't enroll, the testing fee is nonrefundable. Move aside and let the others sign up!"

Li Yusong fumed for a moment, then looked at Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and the few remaining bystanders.

"Next. Which of you is coming?"

The remaining parents backed away. "My child isn't talented enough, and we can't afford to waste that money. Goodbye!"

Clearly, these parents had only stayed to watch the show.

Li Yusong shifted his gaze to Zhu Zhuqing. "What about you?"

Zhu Zhuqing silently stepped back and pointed at Tang San and Xiao Wu. "I'm with them."

Li Yusong silently turned to Ning Rongrong.

He had just heard that this girl was also a twelve-year-old Soul Grandmaster.

As the only one remaining, Ning Rongrong felt his gaze and began to have second thoughts.

She had come to gain experience, either to improve her strength or to recruit talented people and prove her abilities to her father.

Now this academy could not even recruit students, and its facilities were poor. If the geniuses would not attend, why should she?

Ning Rongrong waved her hand as well. "Your academy doesn't meet my standards."

Now there was not a single student left.

"Since no one is signing up, admissions are over. Everyone, go home!"

Furious, Li Yusong picked up the table and chairs and left, glaring at Dai Mubai as he went.

Neither of those two Soul Elders wanted to enroll, so why had he mentioned them earlier?

Just to whet his appetite for students he could not recruit?

Dai Mubai scratched his head awkwardly and followed him back to Shrek Academy, reluctantly drawing his gaze away from Zhu Zhuqing.

For some reason, he kept feeling that the girl looked familiar.

Inside the academy, Yu Xiaogang, who had resigned from his job in Nuoding City, ran into the two of them with a faint smile plastered across his face.

"Li Yusong, did we recruit any talented students this year?"

Yu Xiaogang asked expectantly.

The academy currently had three highly talented students. With four more, they could enter the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, known as the "Soul Master Tournament" for short.

Given Shrek Academy's recruitment standards, its students were bound to be geniuses.

As their instructor, he would surely make his name known throughout the world and prove himself!

At Yu Xiaogang's question, Li Yusong looked thoroughly disgruntled. "There were geniuses, but they only came to watch. They wouldn't enroll."

Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up. He wanted to ask more, but Li Yusong turned and left.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang asked Dai Mubai, "Mubai, you were at admissions too. How many geniuses were there?"

Dai Mubai said, "Three. Two twelve-year-old Soul Elders and one twelve-year-old Soul Grandmaster."

Yu Xiaogang was thrilled, as though he could already see himself becoming famous.

He fired off one question after another. "What were their martial souls? What were their names? What were their soul ring configurations? Why wouldn't they join the academy?"

Dai Mubai told him what he knew. Yu Xiaogang immediately froze in place, his body trembling with excitement.

"Tang San and Xiao Wu have actually both become three-ring Soul Elders.

And Tang San's second soul ring is a thousand-year ring!!!"

Yu Xiaogang muttered to himself, his eyes blazing with fervor.

Beyond taking disciples to prove himself, he also saw the hope of expanding his martial soul theory!

Just as he had done with the knowledge he acquired at Spirit Hall back then, once he organized it and added a few words, it would be his!

"They must become my disciples!"

Yu Xiaogang suddenly cried out and turned to race toward Flender's quarters.

Six years ago, Tang San's master had been a three-ring Soul Elder and had used his cultivation advantage to snatch away Yu Xiaogang's disciple.

Now his brother Flender, a Seven-Ring Soul Sage, was here. What did he have to fear?

Dai Mubai jumped in fright. Yu Xiaogang seemed to have gone mad.

He had suddenly shouted something about how they had to become his disciples.

They already had a master!

Anyone capable of raising geniuses like them had to be a Titled Douluo.

He still wanted to steal their disciples? Had he lost his mind?

Meanwhile, Ning Rongrong accompanied Xiao Wu and the others back to Suotuo City, a keen gleam in her eyes.

She had met geniuses with innate full soul power before. Her Grandpa Bone and Grandpa Sword both had it, and now they were Titled Douluos.

After talking with them for a while, Ning Rongrong learned that Zhu Zhuqing was only a Soul Grandmaster.

Tang San was relatively quiet, and she could not coax anything out of him.

So Ning Rongrong moved closer to Xiao Wu and asked tentatively, "Xiao Wu, you and Tang San cultivate so quickly. Could you tell me how you do it?"

Without revealing her little witch's true nature, Ning Rongrong easily won people's goodwill.

Xiao Wu was not wary in the slightest. She smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Teacher Li, Little San's master."

"He's incredibly knowledgeable. He knows lots of medicinal formulas that help with cultivation, and he can design a cultivation regimen based on someone's martial soul, cultivation direction, and personality."

"It's just too exhausting. Otherwise, I would've become his disciple too, and I could be a rank-thirty-seven Soul Elder by now."

Ning Rongrong sank into thought.

Since when had someone appeared on the Douluo Continent who could tailor cultivation methods to an individual's traits and turn them into a Soul Elder at twelve?

If he was so impressive, how had her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect never heard of him?

For a moment, Ning Rongrong was intensely curious about Li Sen, whom she believed she had never met.

She thought about how she wanted to prove to her family that she was capable, possessed great cultivation talent, and had the means to lead the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to prosperity.

Ning Rongrong could not help considering becoming his disciple and winning him over. She asked tentatively, "Xiao Wu, I want to become his disciple. Could you put in a good word for me?"

Xiao Wu looked at Ning Rongrong and asked, "Do you have innate full soul power?"

Ning Rongrong paused. "My innate soul power was rank nine."

Zhu Zhuqing was envious. So out of the four of them, she was the least talented.

She looked at Xiao Wu, also curious whether Li Sen would accept Ning Rongrong.

Stumped by the question of taking a disciple, Xiao Wu said awkwardly, "Teacher Li's requirements for disciples are high. You probably wouldn't qualify."

Ning Rongrong was not discouraged. Hearing that she would not qualify only made her competitive spirit burn brighter.

She had lived almost like a princess since birth. There was nothing she wanted that she could not get.

In terms of talent, she was the best in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

In terms of wealth, she had her family's support, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could be called the richest on the continent.

In terms of influence, she had two Titled Douluos behind her. Taking her as a disciple would earn him the protection of that power.

Ning Rongrong refused to believe Li Sen would be unwilling to take her as his disciple!

"Xiao Wu, put in a good word for me and tell me Teacher Li's requirements for accepting disciples. I'm sure I can meet them."

Ning Rongrong spoke again, brimming with confidence.

At her words, Xiao Wu's mouth twitched as she fought the urge to laugh.

Being caught in the rain without an umbrella was miserable, but knowing someone else was without one too made it much easier to bear.

Besides Zhu Zhuqing, she would get to see another person rejected as a disciple by Li Sen, just like her.

"Teacher Li says he only looks at two things when accepting disciples: first, fate; second, benefits."

Hearing that, Ning Rongrong smiled and, just like Xiao Wu, did everything she could to suppress the urge to laugh.

It was in the bag!

Absolutely in the bag!!!

She did not understand fate, but benefits... who could compete with her when she had the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect behind her?
