"Moon, you've gone a bit too far this time."
Yun Ming tapped the table, his tone stern.
Cai Yue'er lowered her head, looking like a child who had made a mistake despite her advanced age.
Zhuo Shi and the others beside her showed slight changes in expression, but still did not speak up to plead for her.
The new student assessment really caused Cai Yue'er to lose both her money and her reputation.
Not only did he lose face, he also got himself into a lot of trouble, and his Three-Word Battle Armor had to be completely rebuilt.
Forget about the Three-Word Battle Armor, her Martial Soul cultivation also needs to be adjusted.
Some of the Soul Skill, burst damage, and combat techniques that I was good at all had to be readjusted.
The losses involved are equivalent to rebuilding a Super Douluo's cultivation from scratch.
As for hoping that Jiangxia will keep Cai Yue'er's battle armor technology a secret?
None of the cabinet members present believed it.
Jiang Xia, after all, belongs to the Spirit Pagoda.
Yun Ming tapped on the table.
They didn't continue talking about Cai Yue'er.
" Jiang Xia and Gu Yue are both Limit Douluo from the Spirit Pagoda. Since they both joined the outer academy of the Shrek Academy, the Spirit Pagoda also has the intention to cooperate, establish a stable exchange program, and maintain the relationship between the two sides."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuo Shi, Cai Yue'er, and the others all looked up and stared at him.
"Master, isn't this inappropriate?"
Cai Yue'er spoke first.
Zhuo Shi closed his open mouth and glanced at Cai Yue'er.
After thinking about it, I realized that Cai Yue'er should indeed be the one to bring this up.
Cai Yue'er is the dean of the School of Foreign Languages, and she manages the School of Foreign Languages.
This exchange program sounds like it's related to the Department of Foreign Languages.
Yun Ming: "The relationship between Shrek and the Spirit Pagoda is becoming increasingly strained."
"It's not that we fear the Spirit Pagoda, but rather that the Spirit Pagoda was ultimately created by Spirit Ice Douluo, the glory of Spirit Ice Douluo Shrek ten thousand years ago, the restorer of the Tang Sect, and the creator of the Spirit Pagoda. I think he wouldn't want to see Shrek and the Spirit Pagoda become completely opposed."
" The Spirit Pagoda, which stands in opposition to Shrek, is nothing more than the Spirit Pagoda under the rule of the Qiangu Dongfeng."
At this point, Yun Ming's tone became serious, emphasizing the "Qiangu Dongfeng " faction.
" Han Tianyi has already advanced to the Limit Douluo. Given his achievements in the spiritual realm, even I would have to be careful when dealing with him."
"In particular, his in-depth involvement in the research of the Spirit Ascension Platform has had a tremendous influence in the field of Spirit Pagoda research."
"Not to mention Leng Yaozhu, who is backed by numerous powerful families."
"The two of them represent two forces within the Spirit Pagoda."
"The cost of refusing them is too high."
Just as a master craftsman cannot befriend only one faction.
Once you reach that level, you have to accept some losses, even if it means holding your nose.
Zhen Hua has a strained relationship with the Qiangu Dongfeng family, but he still has to forge a set of four-word Battle Armor from Heavenly Forged Metal for them.
Otherwise, if such a serious accusation were leveled against them, all the blacksmiths in the entire Blacksmith's Association would probably be barred from entering the Spirit Ascension Platform.
The Spirit Pagoda will also immediately establish a Blacksmith's Association belonging to the Spirit Pagoda.
The forging industry will inevitably be thrown into turmoil at that time.
Similarly, while the Spirit Pagoda monopolizes multiple fields such as Martial Soul Awakening, and the Spirit Ascension Platform is a technology that restricts all Soul Master, it's impossible to truly block everyone.
If a certain faction is denied a quota for the Spirit Ascension Platform, that faction can still develop its Spirit Ascension Platform.
Shrek, Tang Sect, and the War God Hall —these super powers all possess the technology to create virtual spaces.
They didn't attempt to develop Spirit Ascension Platform simply because it wasn't their primary area of expertise.
I just don't want to waste time and energy maintaining it.
Therefore, it's not feasible for the Spirit Pagoda to completely seal off Shrek Academy's Spirit Ascension Platform.
But this is just a normal situation.
If you truly anger the other party and they refuse to give you the chance to Spirit Ascension Platform, what can you do?
I, a dignified Limit Douluo, came with good intentions, and you're going to reject me?
That's just how the world is; once you reach a certain level of power, everyone has to give each other face.
Besides, they genuinely came with good intentions to ease tensions.
At that point, their combat power will directly halt the Spirit Ascension Platform for your Shrek disciples and cut off all your applications to challenge the tower.
Could you build your own Spirit Ascension Platform for Shrek Academy? That's for the future. What are your disciples planning to do in the next ten years or so?
Cai Yue'er's expression froze.
What Yun Ming said was indeed crucial.
But Cai Yue'er still didn't want to agree so easily.
This was well-intentioned, but in Cai Yue'er's view, wasn't it just the Spirit Pagoda trying to undermine Shrek Academy?
Once this cooperation platform is established, the flow of people between the two sides will definitely increase.
With so many disciples from Shrek Outer Court, it's highly likely that Jiang Xia and Gu Yue lured them to the Spirit Ascension Platform.
After all, those two people are just too outstanding.
Cai Yue'er, who was assessing the two on the spot, certainly knew just how extraordinary their talents were.
In the various activities of the Foreign Languages Department, the two will surely shine brightly.
At that time, the outer disciples who worship the strong may very well be bewitched by them.
When talking about the final outcome, Cai Yue'er felt somewhat aggrieved.
Let alone the outer disciples who can stay at Shrek, those disciples who are eliminated every year might be seamlessly replaced by the Spirit Pagoda.
This suddenly gave Cai Yue'er a sense of constraint, making her think twice before expelling any disciples.
It made her very uncomfortable.
However, the answer to all of this was already known when the project was first proposed.
Yun Ming saw the resistance in Cai Yue'er's heart and sighed.
"Moon, you still need to work on your mindset."
"For Shrek Academy, the true foundation will always be the Inner Court."
" Jiang Xia and Gu Yue can take away the outer court disciples, but they can't take away my inner court disciples."
"By the way, let's continue with the decision to cancel the pre-selected inner court positions, as mentioned in the previous meeting."
"The assessment of inner court disciples must be conducted equally. No matter how talented someone is, they cannot be directly admitted to the inner court. The character of inner court disciples must be strictly controlled."
"While we're at it, let Xinglan and the other two go to the outer courtyard for some training."
No matter how outstanding Jiang Xiao and Gu Yue are, they can't compete with the brilliance of a constellation of stars.
"The youngsters Wu Zhangkong brought back this time, besides Jiang Xia and Gu Yue, each have their own unique characteristics. Let's put some pressure on them and see if they can unleash their full potential. Also, with Wu Siduo and the other freshmen on the list of young geniuses, I think we can assemble a new generation of Shrek Seven Monsters this year."
Shrek Seven Monsters!
The moment those five words were uttered by Yun Ming, all the elders present were shocked.
Without a doubt, the Shrek Seven Monsters are of extraordinary significance to the Shrek Academy.
The selection of the Shrek Seven Monsters has always been based on the principle of "quality over quantity."
Wu Zhangkong once had the potential to become one of the Shrek Seven Monsters, or even the leader of the Shrek Seven Monsters.
Unfortunately, his cohort couldn't find a matching genius.
Cai Yue'er's eyes lit up instantly.
Yes, the quality of this year's edition is unprecedented.
If we could form the Shrek Seven Monsters, then with their Shrek Seven Monsters strength, they might be able to suppress the arrogance of Jiang Xia and Gu Yue!
With this in mind, Cai Yue'er was filled with motivation; she was determined to exploit Tang Wulin and the others.
We need to use all sorts of suppression methods to see how much potential these talents can unleash in the future.
Jiang Xia? Gu Yue?
You have someone backing you up, right?
Fine, I can't afford to suppress you.
Then I won't suppress it!
You have potential, go and discover it yourselves.
Mom's going to help train the Shrek Seven Monsters for her family.
