As long as he completed the enrollment process normally for these two children, he would have brought Nuoding Academy two genius students with Innate Full Soul Power.
Afterward, he could collect the reward directly. Why make trouble for himself?
With that thought, Director Su's confusion vanished at once. A calm, kindly smile returned to his face. After handing Bai Ye's Martial Soul certificate back to him, he said,
"I never expected you to be a Sword Spirit Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power. I've confirmed your information. The enrollment fee at Nuoding Academy is one Gold Soul Coin per year. What do you think...?"
"Um, Director Su, money isn't the issue. It's just that I..."
Hearing Director Su assume that he intended to enroll normally by paying the fees, Bai Ye immediately prepared to explain. He was not short on money now, but the problem was that he planned to enroll using a work-study student slot.
Otherwise, how was he supposed to live with Xiao Wu? And how was he supposed to build a relationship with her?
But upon hearing Bai Ye say that money was not the issue, before Bai Ye could finish his sentence, Director Su immediately imagined that Bai Ye wanted them to conceal his identity and keep others from finding out.
"Hehe! Don't worry, I understand! I understand everything!"
Thinking that Bai Ye meant money was not an issue, but that they must not reveal his information, Director Su immediately smiled. Looking at Bai Ye, he gave a very meaningful smile.
What do you understand?
Director Su's inexplicable claim that he understood left Bai Ye with black lines across his face.
"Director Su, although I may not look short on money right now, what I mean is that I actually have a work-study student slot."
Bai Ye looked at Director Su and said helplessly.
"Ah... ahem, ahem!"
Director Su had thought Bai Ye meant that money was not an issue because he wanted them to conceal his identity. Who would have thought that Bai Ye simply meant it was not a matter of money? Director Su was instantly dumbfounded, his old face reddening as he hurriedly pretended to cough a few times.
"You have a work-study student slot! Fine, then you'll be like Xiao Wu. Your dormitory will be Seventh Dormitory. Here's your school uniform."
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Director Su quickly changed the subject. He took out the academy-issued uniform, handed it to Bai Ye, and let him leave.
"Then, Director Su, we'll be going now!"
After completing the enrollment, Bai Ye took Xiao Wu with him. After bidding Director Su farewell, they left the office and prepared to head to Seventh Dormitory, where the work-study students stayed.
"I never expected Nuoding Academy to welcome two geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power this year!"
After Bai Ye and Xiao Wu left, discussions immediately broke out in the office. One teacher said with deep emotion.
"I think these two geniuses must both have factions behind them. The reason they came to Nuoding Academy must be just like in those storybooks—their factions have mortal enemies, and to prevent them from being assassinated, they hid their identities and sent them here."
A young teacher said with a smile.
His thoughts were the same as Director Su's, though that sort of storybook plot was simply too easy to imagine.
As they continued discussing, noon arrived. Two young teachers got up and left the office, chatting as they headed toward the cafeteria.
Since Nuoding Academy was not very large, the two teachers soon arrived at the cafeteria from the teaching building.
As teachers, they naturally ate on the second floor of the cafeteria.
After finding an empty table on the second floor, the two teachers ordered their food and continued discussing Xiao Wu and Bai Ye.
But while the two young teachers were discussing Xiao Wu and Bai Ye,
they failed to notice that at the neighboring table, a middle-aged man in a black academic robe, with a crew cut and an ordinary face, was eating while listening to their conversation.
What? Nuoding Academy has enrolled two students with Innate Full Soul Power this year?
Upon hearing the discussion of the two teachers at the next table, the middle-aged man stopped with the flatbread he had been about to put into his mouth. Though his expression remained unchanged, his heart was filled with shock.
After the shock subsided, a surge of excitement and exhilaration welled up within the middle-aged man.
As a Martial Soul theory Grandmaster, he had once proposed the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul. He believed that this theory was correct.
Yet no one in the Soul Master world acknowledged him. In his view, there was only one way to gain recognition: find a disciple and train them into a Title Douluo.
However, for certain unspeakable reasons, he had never considered taking an ordinary Soul Master as a disciple. During his more than ten years at Nuoding Academy, he had not even taught a single class.
But ordinary Soul Masters were ordinary Soul Masters, while geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power were geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power!
Taking an ordinary Soul Master as a disciple would tarnish his identity as a Martial Soul theory Grandmaster. But taking a genius with Innate Full Soul Power as a disciple perfectly suited his identity as a Martial Soul theory Grandmaster!
Besides, in all of Nuoding Academy, other than Martial Soul theory Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, who else had the qualifications and ability to teach a genius with Innate Full Soul Power?
With that thought, Yu Xiaogang immediately stood up.
