A Student in Need, a Duty That Cannot Be Refused

"Mubai, get up first." Flender didn't say anything, but he immediately stepped forward to help Dai Mubai was bowing, to his feet.

Then he looked at Shao Xin, Lu Qibin, Li Yusong.

"Old Shao, Old Lu, Old Li, Mubai's talent is too extraordinary. This talent alone will arouse the fear of various forces, not to mention that he is the third prince of the Star Luo Empire."

"Therefore, even though I absolutely trust you, after returning to the academy yesterday, I only revealed Mubai's cultivation talent to you, and did not reveal his identity."

"Now that Mubai trusts you and has voluntarily revealed his identity to you, I won't say anything more."

"Unlike the princes of the Heaven Dou Empire and its subordinate duchy kingdoms, even if they are not designated as heirs to the throne, they can still be granted the title of king in the future."

"However, the Star Luo Empire is founded on military might, and its system for selecting the heir to the throne is extremely cruel. The survivor becomes king, and the loser is either stripped of their cultivation and imprisoned for life, or is directly eliminated."

"The fate of the Star Luo Empire's princes is not their own choice. If Mubai's Martial Soul does not mutate, in four or five years, his fate will be either death or lifelong imprisonment."

"Now that Mubai's Martial Soul Mutation and his cultivation talent has been enhanced, he, who originally had no hope of competing for the throne, has a chance now, or rather, a great chance."

"Mubai's Martial Soul, the Evil Eye White Tiger, far surpasses the White Tiger Martial Soul in quality and strength, even exceeding the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the number one Beast Martial Soul in the world, reaching a level comparable to the Clear Sky Hammer."

"Furthermore, at only 13 years old, his Soul Power Level has reached 35, and his first Second Soul Ring are both millennium-old. His Third Soul Ring is even at the level of Fifth Soul Ring for an ordinary Soul Master, making it a unique black Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring."

"Mubai's talent is something I've never heard of or seen before, and the purpose of founding Shrek Academy is to cultivate monster-level students."

"As a student of the Shrek Academy, it makes no difference to me whether Mubai comes from a commoner background or is the third prince of the Star Luo Empire."

All I know is that he's a student at the Shrek Academy, my student.

"Since Mubai is in trouble, and since he needs the academy's help, it is my duty as the dean and a teacher to help him."

"Old Zhao and I made our stance clear to Mubai a long time ago: we'll risk our old bones and go crazy with him this once in a while."

"So, Old Shao, Old Lu, Old Li, we old brothers have known each other for many years. We founded Shrek Academy together and stayed in this poor, remote place to teach and educate people. You are all the people I am closest to and trust the most."

"Mubai's matter, whether you want to get involved or not, whether you're willing or not, you all need to state your opinion."

After Flender finished expressing his and Zhao Wuji's stance, he looked at Shao Xin, Lu Qibin, Li Yusong with a serious expression and asked them a question.

Perhaps it was the shock of Dai Mubai being from the Star Luo Imperial Family and being the third prince of the Star Luo Empire that made the three of them remain silent for a long time in the face of Flender's question.

Finally, Shao Xin was the first to come to his senses, and then looked at Flender and Dai Mubai with a big smile.

"Like Flender, regardless of whether you, Mubai, are of commoner origin or the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, in my eyes and in my heart, I only know you as a student of the Shrek Academy, my student."

"Since you are in trouble, and you need the college and our help, we teachers have no reason to stand idly by."

"Although I, your Teacher Shao, am not a combat-type Soul Master, and may not be able to contribute as much in combat as Dean Flender or Teacher Shao Zhao Wuji, I can still do my part in logistical support."

"Even if all else fails, I can still cook for you, and when you're short of money, your Teacher Shao can go out and sell Sugar Bean to earn you some."

Dai Mubai helped his personal disciple Oscar so much, and Oscar recognized Dai Mubai as his boss, deciding to follow Dai Mubai and Dai Mubai.

Given this relationship, it would have been impossible for Shao Xin not to help.

Moreover, as Flender said, Dai Mubai was indeed a student of the Shrek Academy, his own student, so Shao Xin expressed his opinion without much hesitation.

After Shao Xin finished speaking, Li Yusong, also with a Generosity and passionate expression, patted his chest and said, "Old Shao is right, and so am I."

"Although I'm already an old man, I can still wield the Dragon Pattern Staff. So Mubai, if there's anything I, Teacher Li, need you to do, just let me know."

"Dean Flender, thank you, Teacher Shao, thank you, Teacher Li." Seeing that Shao Xin and Li Yusong had already expressed their gratitude, Dai Mubai once again bowed solemnly to the two teachers.

After Flender, Shao Xin, and Li Yusong helped Dai Mubai up, they looked at Lu Qibin hadn't said a word the whole time, with a mixture of doubt and curiosity.

Sensing the gazes of the crowd, Lu Qibin turned to face Dai Mubai and humbly and respectfully performed a courtier's salute.

"Your Highness, are you preparing to return to the Star Luo Empire?" Lu Qibin asked.

"Hmm... For example, the Heaven Dou Empire. The Star Luo Empire is indeed safer for me now, but I still have some things to finish in the Heaven Dou Empire, so I don't plan to return to the Star Luo Empire for the time being."

When Lu Qibin asked him the question, Dai Mubai answered truthfully.

Upon hearing Dai Mubai's words, Lu Qibin nodded, seemingly relieved, and then said:

"While the Heaven Dou Empire may not seem as powerful as the martial Star Luo Empire, as one of the two great empires that can rival the Star Luo Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire actually has its own development path, which the Star Luo Empire can learn from."

"Regarding the Heaven Dou Empire, I have collected and organized some information, and I am also preparing to offer related theoretical courses. I wonder if His Highness the Third Prince would be interested?"

"And I wonder if His Highness the Third Prince would be willing to grant me this little wish of being a know-it-all?" Lu Qibin said with a faint smile.

"Of course I'm very interested, then I'll trouble you Teacher Lu."

Dai Mubai replied with a smile.

However, they overheard Dai Mubai and Lu Qibin's conversation.

Li Yusong felt somewhat confused.

Shao Xin seemed to be deep in thought.

But Flender had a guess in his mind.

"As the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, it's probably no coincidence that Mubai appeared in the Heaven Dou Empire and joined Shrek Academy, located in a remote and impoverished area."

"Mubai's arrival at Shrek is likely related to Old Lu, and Old Lu's identity is probably not as simple as it appears on the surface..."

Seeing that Lu Qibin did not express his opinion, Dai Mubai seemed to have expected it and was not disappointed by Lu Qibin's silence, which made Flender even more certain of his thoughts.
