The prosperity of Tiandou City unfolded before everyone like a magnificent scroll. The streets, all paved with blue bricks, were as wide as the main road in Soto City. The entire city was like a huge maze, its grandeur and splendor breathtaking.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of Lanba Academy, Qin Ming immediately walked towards the reception area beside the sentry post. There was a sign hanging there that read "Recruitment Registration Room".
"Dear soul masters, please take our test first. If you can become teachers of the academy, I think your disciples can also be accommodated to study here," said the middle - aged soul master beside the sentry post, his gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny.
Generally, to enter a high - level soul master academy, even for outstanding soul masters, they were at least sixteen to eighteen years old, and the common age was around twenty.
However, Chen Feng and the others in front of him didn't look like they were eighteen at all.
Qin Ming and the others stood in turn in front of the test platform. The moment their martial spirits were released, brilliant light radiated out, instantly enveloping the entire hall in a dazzling glow.
The teachers of Lanba Academy widened their eyes in astonishment, their mouths almost dropping open.
"Level 63 Dragon - Patterned Staff Weapon Soul Emperor, Li Yusong, an offensive - type soul master."
"Level 66 Star - Luo Chess Weapon Soul Emperor, Lu Qibin, a control - type soul master."
"Level 71 Sugar Bean Weapon Soul Saint, Shao Xin, a food - type soul master."
"Level 76 Mighty Vajra Bear Battle Soul Saint, Zhao Wuji, an offensive - type soul master."
"Level 78 Cat - Owl Battle Soul Saint, Flanders, an attack - speed type soul master."
When the strength of Qin Ming and his group was revealed one by one, the teachers of Lanba Academy were deeply shocked.
However, when their eyes fell on the thirteen - year - old boy, Chen Feng, everyone's heart seemed to skip a beat.
A soul - power level of 37, this number was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating huge waves. It instantly became the focus of the entire hall and the center of everyone's discussion.
At this age, such strength - what did it mean?
Only three levels away, Chen Feng could become a soul master of a high - level academy.
Even in Tiandou Royal Academy, this level was more than qualified, and he would even be regarded as a genius among geniuses.
Qin Ming swept a satisfied glance around. The teachers of Lanba Academy could no longer hide their shock and admiration.
Yin Shu and three other teachers from Lanba Academy led these young soul masters from Shrek through the well - arranged teaching buildings of Lanba Academy.
In the distance, ancient trees reached towards the sky, and the sunlight filtered through the intertwined branches and leaves, casting dappled light on the ground.
The fragrance of flowers filled the air, with a faint and pleasant aroma.
"Who is the dean of this Lanba Academy?" On the way, Zhu Zhuqing asked curiously. Her voice was clear and melodious, like a clear spring in the mountains.
"I don't know," Tang San shook his head. A glint of thought flashed in his eyes, but then he said a useless sentence, trying to show his presence. "But I think this academy should not be simple."
Nonsense! A large academy near the capital couldn't be simple.
Chen Feng slowly said, "Lanba Academy sounds like a short name for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. If I'm not mistaken, the dean should be from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone couldn't help but nod, their eyes showing admiration for Chen Feng.
However, among them, the Grandmaster's eyes flickered faintly, as if he was trying to avoid something.
After walking for about ten minutes, as the group was walking in the fresh - air forest, suddenly, a faint and indistinct singing voice drifted over from the front.
The singing, both real and illusory, was melodious with a tinge of sadness, like the night wind gently blowing across the lake, stirring up ripples.
Flanders and the Grandmaster froze in their steps almost at the same moment, a complex emotion flashing in their eyes.
This singing was not unfamiliar to them. It seemed to touch on some memories deep in their hearts.
At this moment, Flanders' face was full of complex expressions. His brows were tightly knitted as if he was trying hard to control his emotions.
The Grandmaster, on the other hand, was extremely sentimental, with tears in his eyes.
However, when he turned to leave, trying to escape his emotions, Flanders firmly stopped him.
"Xiaogang, how long are you going to keep running away?"
Flanders' voice was firm, and his gaze was directly fixed on the Grandmaster.
"Now that we're already here, can you really bear not to face her?"
After walking several hundred meters forward, everyone finally saw the owner of this place.
Following the melodious singing, they arrived at its source.
She looked to be in her thirties, wearing a cyan cloth dress. The hem of the dress swayed gently, faintly revealing her well - proportioned and plump figure. The mature charm was fully displayed in every move she made.
Her facial features were exquisitely beautiful, as if painted in a classical painting, like a beauty stepping out of an ancient scroll.
Under the cloth dress, her curves were hard to hide, showing a mature and full - bodied charm that no ordinary girl could match.
Next came the reminiscing among several middle - aged people.
"This beautiful aunt seems to have an unusual relationship with the Grandmaster," Xiaowu said, her words full of curiosity and a bit of gossip. Her big, lively eyes sparkled as if she had discovered a big secret.
"Maybe the Grandmaster abandoned her," Zhu Zhuqing muttered softly.
Hearing this, Chen Feng gave Zhu Zhuqing a glare, indicating that she should stop talking.
Zhu Zhuqing also noticed Chen Feng's seriousness and quickly shut up.
However, what she said was actually not wrong. The Grandmaster had first let down Bibi Dong and then abandoned Liu Erlong. Tsk tsk, he was really heartless.
After a while, it seemed that Flanders and the others had finished talking, and the atmosphere among them seemed to have eased a bit.
Liu Erlong stood at the door, her eyes bright, and said to Flanders,
"As for how to teach in the future, that's up to you, Boss Fu. How dare Tiandou Royal Academy drive you out? Humph, I'd like to see what they're relying on. Let's meet at next year's High - level Soul Master Academy Competition."
Taking a deep breath, Liu Erlong slowly swept her gaze over the Shrek group, her eyes showing a bit of pride and anticipation:
"Everyone, since you're new here, let me introduce Lanba Academy... Oh no, it should be called Shrek Academy now."
She smiled slightly and pointed to the lush forest around them,
"This forest is the largest in Tiandou City and all of it is a resource of the academy. Although our facilities are not as luxurious as those of Tiandou Royal Academy, they're not too far off."
"In the last Soul Master Competition, we defeated many strong opponents and finally made it to the top eight. Our results were only slightly inferior to the first team of Tiandou Royal Academy, and we eliminated their second team."
After hearing this, a glint of amusement flashed in Flanders' eyes: "In my opinion, after the merger of our two academies, our results in this Soul Master Competition will be even better."
Liu Erlong was slightly taken aback, a flash of surprise in her eyes: "Boss Fu, are you serious? Although we're not afraid of Tiandou Royal Academy, to be honest, the strength of their team is still a bit higher than ours."
