26: Chapter 26 Shrek Academy II

Passing through the familiar country path, they arrived at Shrek Academy, still faced with that familiar dilapidated gate.

It was currently enrollment season, so there was already a long line at the entrance.

Xiao Wu looked at the long queue and, with no other choice, pulled Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Qi to join the line.

The three of them hadn't been in line for long when Tang San arrived. He first scanned the queue and sure enough, saw Xiao Wu and Bai Qi. As for Zhu Zhuqing beside them, Tang San took an extra look before withdrawing his gaze and walking to the end of the line.

Apparently, Great Master had told him that Bai Qi and Xiao Wu would also be going to Shrek Academy, but hadn't specified when, so he assumed they were in the same intake as him.

Just then, a commotion broke out at the front of the line.

Hearing this, Xiao Wu lifted her head and looked forward.

It turned out to be a child whose first spirit ring was a century-level spirit ring, but his level wasn't high enough. Li Yusong wouldn't let him in and wouldn't refund the money either, leading to a conflict between the two parties.

Having already seen how stingy the school was, Xiao Wu was no longer surprised. After all, she had been scammed out of ten thousand gold coins by the stingy Dean Flender. Just thinking about it made her angry, so she could only sigh at this family's bad luck.

In the end, Li Yusong activated his Spirit and spirit rings to lecture the family until they left, but there weren't many people left in line.

Bai Qi, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing took this opportunity to move forward.

At the enrollment station, Li Yusong, who had just sat down, suddenly stood up again and said to the girl who had just finished testing her Soul Power.

"Did your family agree to you coming here?"

To this, the girl smiled and said.

"Since I meet the requirements, why can't I go in?"

Li Yusong had no rebuttal, so he let her in.

As she walked past Dai Mubai, he looked at her with a lecherous expression—not the evil kind associated with Evil Spirit Masters, of course.

However, this lecherous look was seen by Zhu Zhuqing behind her, and her gaze toward Dai Mubai became even colder.

After the girl went in, Dai Mubai withdrew his gaze, only to immediately see Zhu Zhuqing looking at him with cold, expressionless eyes.

Dai Mubai's eyes widened when he saw Zhu Zhuqing, but she looked away.

At this moment, after seeing the expression on Dai Mubai's face as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu immediately shielded Zhu Zhuqing behind her, glaring fiercely at Dai Mubai like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

Bai Qi also gave him an expressionless look, which instinctively made Dai Mubai shiver, and he didn't dare look over again.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xiao Wu and Bai Qi with some gratitude.

When it was Zhu Zhuqing's turn, Li Yusong looked at the two people following behind her and said.

"You two Little freaks are finally back. I thought you weren't coming back."

After sighing, he measured Zhu Zhuqing's bone age and smiled.

"So you've brought another Little freak along."

To this, Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue, while Bai Qi replied half-jokingly.

"How could we leave? Dean Flender still swallowed ten thousand gold coins of mine."

Li Yusong chuckled after hearing this and let them all in.

Then it was Tang San's turn. Just like before, after checking his bone age by touching his lower leg, he passed. Since he was the last one, he had Dai Mubai take him inside.

Once inside the academy, Bai Qi and Xiao Wu took Zhu Zhuqing towards the final test.

Passing by the girl whom Li Yusong had questioned, she saw their movements and, sensing they knew something, followed them.

After she caught up, she saw Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing looking at her with confusion, but Bai Qi didn't look at her at all. She looked at Bai Qi with some surprise because, as the Little Demoness she was at this time, no one had ever dared to ignore her, so she was surprised by Bai Qi's complete disregard.

The truth was that the countdown for Bai Qi's system upgrade had ended. Just as he was about to ask the system what upgrades there were, he saw Ning Rongrong coming over. He helplessly exited the system interface and looked at Ning Rongrong, though he hadn't been as fast as her in walking over.

Seeing that Bai Qi was also looking at her, Ning Rongrong nodded with satisfaction and introduced herself.

"My name is Ning Rongrong. What are your names?"

Seeing that she was just introducing herself, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing replied.

"My name is Xiao Wu."

"Zhu Zhuqing."

Ning Rongrong saw that the two people in front of Bai Qi had answered her, so she stared directly at Bai Qi, waiting for his reply.

Seeing Ning Rongrong looking at Bai Qi, Xiao Wu's eyes rolled around, and she thought to herself, "Damn it, why does Bai Qi have to be so handsome?" She then looked at Bai Qi, while Zhu Zhuqing followed Ning Rongrong's lead and turned to look at Bai Qi.

Seeing all the girls turn to look at him, Bai Qi helplessly said.

"Bai Qi."

After learning Bai Qi's name, Ning Rongrong asked.

"Isn't the freshman test over there? Why are you walking inside?"

"Because except for that girl in black, the other two are not freshmen anymore."

Just as Xiao Wu was about to explain, Dai Mubai, who was walking behind them, spoke up and answered for her.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Dai Mubai, who had walked over with Tang San, struck a flashy pose that he thought was very cool, introducing himself and taking the opportunity to introduce Tang San as well.

"My name is Dai Mubai, and he is Tang San. Among us, the freshmen this year are just you, Tang San, and Zhu Zhuqing."

Upon hearing Dai Mubai say her name, Zhu Zhuqing frowned and hid behind Bai Qi. Seeing this, Bai Qi glanced at her but didn't say anything.

Dai Mubai continued.

"As for why they are taking Zhu Zhuqing inside, it's because her level allows her to go straight to the final test."

Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she asked.

"The final test? Can I go?"

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai made another cool expression and said.

"Of course you can. I'll take you; follow me."

He then walked forward, while Bai Qi, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing, who were left behind, all rolled their eyes collectively after seeing Dai Mubai's expression.

Ning Rongrong, who was at the back, saw their expressions and covered her mouth to giggle, thinking that life at the academy in the future wouldn't be too boring.

They hadn't walked long before they arrived at Oscar's Sausage stall. Dai Mubai held back his laughter as he introduced him to the group.

"His name is Oscar, nicknamed Uncle Big Sausage."

Upon hearing this nickname, everyone except Oscar laughed.

Only Oscar immediately got agitated and yelled at Dai Mubai.

"What Uncle Big Sausage? My name is Sausage Specialty Oscar!"

After saying this, he struck a cool pose, thinking he looked great.

However, no one paid any attention to him. When he finished his pose and looked up, he was dumbfounded and muttered to himself.

"Eh? Where did everyone go?"

It turned out that just as Oscar struck his pose, Bai Qi had pulled Xiao Wu away, with Zhu Zhuqing following closely behind. After laughing for a while, Ning Rongrong saw that the three of them had left, so she hurriedly trotted to catch up.

Only Dai Mubai and Tang San were left there looking at Oscar. However, they didn't watch for long; a second later, the two exchanged glances. Dai Mubai pursed his lips towards the direction of Bai Qi's group, signaling to follow. Tang San nodded upon seeing this, and the two, now in agreement, immediately trotted over.

So, by the time Oscar stood up, there was no one left around him.
