Chapter 62 Leading Qin Ming Away
Chapter 62 Leading Qin Ming Away
"Greetings, Master! It's truly a pleasure to see you in person." Meng Shenji shook hands with Yu Xiaogang with a friendly expression. Although he no longer regarded the master with respect, he still had to maintain the proper courtesy.
Yu Xiaogang's complexion is much better than it was two years ago, so it seems he's doing quite well at Shrek Academy.
"I wonder what brings your esteemed teachers and students to my Tiandou Royal Academy at this critical juncture?" Bai Baoshan asked directly.
Yu Xiaogang turned his gaze to Flander, who was standing behind him. Flander scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.
"This matter, um..."
After all, it's a bit embarrassing to talk about seeking refuge with someone. No one could have imagined that Yu Xiaogang would squander so much of the academy's funds in such a short time on training students.
"Our dean said he's really broke, and Shrek Academy can't stay afloat anymore," a fat student among the students behind Flander interjected.
"Fatty, shut up." Just as Flander was about to stop the other man from speaking recklessly, Dai Mubai, who was standing to the side, had already spoken up to stop him.
"Why hasn't Qin Ming arrived yet? Where has he gone at this crucial moment?" Flander was anxious. He stammered, hoping that Qin Ming would speak up, but he still couldn't find him.
A month ago, he had written to Qin Ming explaining the difficulties the academy was facing. Qin Ming then replied, saying that Qin Ming was welcome to come to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, as the teachers were so excellent and the academy would certainly welcome him.
So Flander finally made up his mind and brought his family to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. But now, in this Education Committee office, he looked around but couldn't see Qin Ming anywhere.
Qin Ming calculated the days and naturally knew that Shrek Academy's teachers would be arriving soon. He had even made preparations to welcome his teachers.
But around noon today, a student came to his office. He was panting heavily, clearly in a hurry, so Qin Ming offered him some water and asked him to explain.
The other party told Master Qin Ming that something terrible had happened: someone was causing trouble at the school gate, and not only were they harassing female students, but they were also assaulting people, showing no regard for the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming immediately frowned and wanted to go to the school gate to investigate. However, not far from his office, a voice called out to him from behind.
The other person had black hair and a strange pink and white pom-pom on their head.
"Teacher Qin Ming."
"What's up, classmate? Did you need something?" Qin Ming turned around. This boy wasn't wearing the Royal Fighting Academy's uniform, so he must have come from somewhere else.
Normally, some nobles or Soul Masters from the surrounding area would come here to seek his guidance, and Qin Ming would always treat them politely. However, they usually waited at the courtyard gate. Now that the other party had been allowed in, there must have been quite a commotion at the gate, and the guards were too busy to attend to anything else.
"His Highness Xue Qinghe has something important to discuss with you."
Qin Ming frowned, clearly unwilling to believe it. Although the young man in front of him had delicate features and a handsome appearance, his clothes were extremely simple, making him seem unrelated to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.
What's more, the other party had just visited the academy a day ago, but hadn't told me what they wanted to do then.
Seeing that the other party did not believe him, the young man took out a token from the storage soul tool at his waist. Qin Ming was somewhat surprised to see such a high-level soul tool.
Upon seeing the design on the token, Qin Ming's initially strange expression instantly turned to surprise. The token the young man had produced actually bore the designs of the six top-tier martial spirits of the continent.
"The Six Emperors' Decree of Heavenly Dou!" Although the token had no command function for Qin Ming, it symbolized his status and position.
Now that this young man could actually produce it, Qin Ming had no choice but to believe him, no matter how skeptical he was. Besides, the trip to the palace that the other party mentioned posed no real danger to him.
Even if you're tricked, it's just a wasted trip. Who would have the time to deceive themselves if they could produce such a token?
Qin Ming didn't believe it.
"Alright, I'll head to the palace now." Even though the Crown Prince is teaching at the Royal Academy of the Heavenly Dou Empire, he has no choice but to go.
Seeing the change in the other person's expression, the boy understood that the other person had believed his story, so he took out another letter from his belt and handed it to Qin Ming.
"Teacher Qin Ming, this is His Highness the Crown Prince's private matter, so you only need to inform the guards of Tian Dou of the contents of this paper, and they will allow you to pass."
Qin Ming looked at the somewhat cryptic words written on the paper, nodded, and then left.
Seeing that no one was around, the fluffy ball on the boy's head finally couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Yan, what did you write on the paper you gave him? What's this 'older brother is the younger brother's older brother' thing? Even someone as smart as me can't understand this, are you sure Xue Qinghe can?"
"That's good that you don't understand." That's exactly what Xiao Yan wanted. The content above was just something he wrote randomly, and Teacher Qin Ming wouldn't be able to figure out what it was about.
If Xue Qinghe were to receive a strange letter, and happened to summon his maid to identify it, Xue'er would certainly recognize that it was Yan Xiao's handwriting.
That's enough.
"drag."
After leaving the far north, Xiao Yan continued his cultivation journey. The time he spent in the far north resulted in his soul power cultivation, which, although still quite good compared to his peers, was, in his own opinion, somewhat low.
When he arrived in Tiandou City, he heard the people in the city discussing the early selection of Huangdou Academy. Only then did he remember that next year should be the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Tournament.
This time, the academy's team formation method actually abandoned the traditional seven-person team format and changed to three-person teams. To Xiao Yan, this sounded like it was tailor-made for him.
Thinking about it, Xiao Wu might have already signed up for the competition. Actually, he didn't plan to participate at all. Those Karami were no match for him, and bringing Greymon would be a bit of a one-sided attack.
But since it just so happens to be at this time, there's no harm in going to check it out.
And so, by sheer coincidence, they witnessed Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai's arrogant side right at the academy gate. After Dai Mubai's attempts to flirt with the female students of Tiandou Academy failed, Ma Hongjun, amidst the mockery, also joined in.
As a result, he was driven away by the other party's companions on the grounds that he was like a toad trying to eat swan meat. Furious, Ma Hongjun actually activated his martial spirit on the spot and challenged the other party to a duel.
Two spirit rings lit up on Ma Hongjun's body, and he then introduced himself, saying, "Ma Hongjun, Level 28 Battle Soul Master."
Xiao Yan, hidden in the shadows, glanced at Yu Xiaogang with some doubt. "How come you managed to shut down Shrek Academy a year ahead of schedule, yet their soul power hasn't increased much?"
Moreover, there wasn't a single girl in the Shrek group; it seemed they had all left in anger.
Ma Hongjun had already started fighting with the students from Tiandou Academy, while Dai Mubai watched the spectacle with amusement.
Flander was still negotiating with the doorman, while Zhao Wuji and Yu Xiaogang pretended not to see anything. Oscar lay lazily on the lawn, and the other Shrek teachers remained silent. Clearly, in their view, Ma Hongjun's move was an attempt to establish Shrek's authority.
It seems the school rule of not being afraid of causing trouble is still in effect.
