Chapter 35: Women's Intuition
🕑 Added 2025-03-06 10:27:33 +0000 UTCAt this time, there were about a hundred applicants gathered at the “gate” of Shrek Academy, and Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were among them.
It Is worth mentioning that although the two women had shown their faces in the video played during the Q&A session, they did not attract much attention. Or the people around them did not recognize them as the people who had appeared in the video.
Because reality is not like in anime, where a character always has only one hairstyle and one set of clothes. Therefore, you only need to slightly change the hairstyle and put on different clothes. Unless it is an acquaintance or the appearance is very distinctive, the gap between the video and reality is still quite large.
In addition, there are many people with similar facial features in the world, so Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing have not been troubled by being recognized wherever they go these days. After all, most ordinary people watch videos just for fun and forget about it after the video is over.
It Is not the case that after appearing in a video, you will suddenly become a well-known star and be watched by people wherever you go.
…
“Zhuqing, do you feel that there seems to be something wrong with this Shrek Academy?” Ning Rongrong stood behind Zhu Zhuqing and whispered, “It’s too different from the propaganda.”
“Yeah, it does feel wrong.” Zhu Zhuqing frowned, thinking that this college might be a scam college?
Many people around also frowned and talked in low voices.
“Are you kidding me? Is this the so-called Soul Master Academy? Or is it the academy that claims that graduates can become Viscounts of the Empire?”
“This is what the Spirit Hall people said, so it shouldn’t be wrong, right? But this academy is really a bit shabby.”
“Dad, I don’t want to go to school here. It’s too embarrassing. I’d better go to Suotuo Intermediate Soul Master College. After all, I was considered a genius when I was in junior college.”
“Son, since you are already here, just wait a little longer. Maybe this is a test. The real academy is not here.”
There were definitely a lot of similar conversations among the people in the queue, and most of the teenagers and their parents had deep disappointment on their faces.
Zhu Zhuqing looked to the front, where the registration was taking place. With her hearing, which was far more sensitive than that of an ordinary person, thanks to her cat spirit, she could vaguely hear the conversation going on there.
The old man sitting behind the desk and taking registrations looked lazy. To put it nicely, his clothes were simple, but to put it bluntly, he looked like a country old man.
A young man was signing up at the desk.
The old man said lazily: “The registration fee is ten gold soul coins, just put it in that box.”
The boy’s father, who was accompanying him, hurriedly took out ten gold soul coins and placed them in a box made of several wooden boards nearby, which made a jingling sound.
“Give me a hand.”
The young man followed his instructions and stretched out his hand to the old man. The old man pinched his hand twice, shook his head and said, “You are not old enough, you can go now.”
The boy was stunned for a moment, then turned his head helplessly to look at his father. His father hurriedly smiled and said, “Teacher, my son just celebrated his thirteenth birthday. Can you make some concessions?”
The old man said impatiently, “Don’t disturb the people behind us. We only accept children under thirteen years old. No one over thirteen will be accepted. You can go now.”
Seeing that this was impossible, the boy’s father could only say, “Then our registration fee…”
The old man said bluntly: “Once you sign up, there will be no refunds.”
Hearing this, the boy’s father could not help but said angrily: “You are clearly trying to rip us off. Refund our registration fee, or we will not leave. If we had known that this so-called Shrek Academy was so shabby, we should not have come.”
You should know that one gold soul coin is enough for a family of three to live a normal life for several months with good food and drink.
It is conceivable that ten gold soul coins are not a small amount of money. No one would let it go if it was suddenly taken away like this.
The old man glanced at him and said calmly: “Mu Bai, someone wants to return the registration fee, you deal with it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly jumped out from the side, twisting his wrist and threatening: “You can return the registration fee if you want, but if you beat me, I will return it in full!”
At the same time, accompanied by a tiger roar, three soul rings appeared around its body.
This person was Dai Mubai. Zhu Zhuqing had not seen him because he was sitting aside and was blocked by the crowd. Now she saw that her fiancé was actually demonstrating against ordinary people like a thug for ten gold soul coins, and she suddenly felt that she could not bear to watch.
Especially for a prestigious college, they would actually cheat the applicants of their tuition fees and then refuse to admit them. This kind of amazing and shameless operation is simply eye-opening!
Are you sure you are not just here to waste time by “studying” in such a college?
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly felt that the future was bleak.
Oh, never mind, I’m here anyway.
Just sign up for school and wait for a while to see.
Perhaps, this college is all show and no substance?
Maybe, the seemingly shabby appearance is just an illusion, and the real school environment is very excellent?
Zhu Zhuqing could only comfort herself in her heart, because she really had no choice. The fate of the two had long been tied together. If she didn’t unite with Dai Mubai, she would have no way to survive.
What can she do?
She is also desperate!
Among soul masters, soul rings always have the best say. Seeing the three soul rings on Dai Mubai, including a thousand-year soul ring, the boy’s father’s face changed drastically. He said, “It’s our bad luck,” and quickly pulled his son away.
Dai Mubai sat back down, his eyes coldly glancing at the teenagers and parents who were registering behind him, the threat was obvious.
The pressure brought by the three spirit rings is not something that ordinary people can bear. At this moment, he does not look like a descendant of the royal family, but rather like a thug.
After this scene, the number of people waiting in line immediately decreased by one third. No one wanted to waste money, not to mention that the appearance of Shrek Academy in front of them was really not flattering.
Another young man who signed up came up to the old man.
This young man came alone. He had blue hair and eyes and was handsome. His temperament was very gentle, which made people like him easily and feel pleasing to the eye.
Zhu Zhuqing stared at the young man and inexplicably felt that he looked familiar?
It can only be said that a woman’s sixth sense is so terrifying!
Because this young man is Tang San, whose appearance has changed drastically after awakening the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Spirit. According to the original plan, he came to the Shrek Academy recommended by his teacher to enroll.
As for why he didn’t just follow his father Tang Hao to practice, but went to school here. It was mainly because Tang San was too young, and his spirit power level was not high. Tang Hao couldn’t teach him what he needed to learn at this stage because it was too basic. In addition, being strong doesn’t mean he can educate others.
So based on the above considerations, Tang San finally decided to come here to study according to the original plan.
