Chapter 24 Yu Xiaogang's Bleeding
Next, Zhong Li, Liu Erlong, and Flander discussed the details of the academy's future planning and operations. Yu Xiaogang stood to the side with a dark face, unable to get a word in edgewise.
What else can he say? Ultimately, all of this stems from the mistakes of himself and his master. Can he really blame the mistress?
Unlike Liu Erlong and Flander's thinking and acceptance, Yu Xiaogang felt extremely unwilling about Blue Tyrant Academy being officially incorporated into the Heaven Dou Empire and turned into the "Second Academy of Heaven Dou Royal Soul Masters".
He still had his own ulterior motives. Although it couldn't be called "Shrek Academy" in name anymore, what was wrong with transforming the academy into their ideal Shrek after they arrived at Blue Tyrant Academy? Anyway, Liu Erlong would listen to whatever he said. In fact, after their arrival, Yu Xiaogang had already devoted all the academy's resources to the Shrek Seven Devils, especially Tang San.
Moreover, when Xiao San becomes a Title Douluo in the future, and the name Shrek is restored, would the Heaven Dou Empire dare to refuse?
He had a very rosy view of things. But, in doing so, all that rosy picture was about to come to an abrupt end!
Now that Blue Tyrant Academy has been absorbed by the Heaven Dou Royal Family, can he still continue to promote his "teaching philosophy"? Will the people of the Heaven Dou Empire still help him take care of his "little monster"? Even his own qualifications to continue teaching are questionable! According to the standards of the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy, his soul power level doesn't even meet the lowest standard of a Heavenly Micro-level teacher!
Of course, by the standards of a student, with his terrifying level twenty-something Great Soul Master cultivation, he barely reached the "Heavenly Supreme" level, surpassing the Heavenly Minor level. However, among the students of the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy, there shouldn't be anyone this old repeating a grade.
Hmph, these vulgar people only know how to judge teaching quality by soul power level. How could they possibly know the power of me, Grandmaster? One day, I will prove myself.
————————————————————————
After the initial negotiations, Zhong Li, along with Flander and Liu Erlong, went directly to the Blue Tyrant Soul Master Academy. The Blue Tyrant Soul Master Academy occupied a considerable area and was located within Heaven Dou City, making it incredibly valuable land; it even boasted a large forest within its grounds. How Liu Erlong had managed to acquire such a prime location was truly a mystery.
The only slight deficiency is the quality of the teaching staff. Even with the addition of Flander and others, it still lags behind the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy. However, with the future injection of Heaven Dou Royal's power, this situation will change.
Zhong Li had long harbored some thoughts about this academy. He didn't entirely approve of the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy's educational model. The Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy was a purely aristocratic academy, admitting students primarily based on bloodline rather than aptitude; this resulted in a very fixed student body and an atmosphere leaning towards the decadent lifestyle of the nobility.
There is no competition, no pressure, and not even a sincere dedication to the path of the Soul Master. Everywhere is filled with an atmosphere of complacency and hedonism. Playboys like Xue Beng and his gang of followers are all students of the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy, which gives a glimpse into the atmosphere there.
Therefore, to change this situation, we must start from the root. The Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy is a large and deeply rooted organization with many connections, so it would be very troublesome to touch it. After all, he is only the fifth prince, not even the crown prince, let alone the emperor of the empire.
Therefore, instead of reforming it, it would be better to explore a different path and establish a new "Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy," which could also serve as a control group. He planned to appoint Dugu Bo as the dean of studies at this new academy, and Dugu Bo's granddaughter, Dugu Yan, would also transfer here soon.
The establishment of the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Second Academy proceeded very smoothly. Emperor Xue Ye was pleased to hear of this and gave Zhong Li considerable support. After all, putting everything else aside, Dugu Bo's willingness to serve as the academy's dean of studies meant, in a sense, that he had forged an even deeper bond with the Heaven Dou Empire.
The original students and teachers of Blue Tyrant Academy naturally had no objections to the academy being incorporated into the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family; in fact, they were proud of it. The Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy's reputation was incredibly prestigious, far surpassing that of Blue Tyrant Academy, a school with less than twenty years of history and no established foundation. In any case, the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy was considered the highest institution of learning in the entire Heaven Dou Empire. If one could truly be exceptionally admitted to this academy, how many people would consider other soul master academies?
For the vast majority of students, Blue Tyrant Academy's sudden absorption by Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy was like a lottery win. So what if they came in second? Didn't they see the identical platinum uniforms and the royal emblem on the school badges? They've won big!
The only ones who were unhappy were probably Yu Xiaogang and his apprentice.
"Damn it! This is blatant usurpation! They've stolen our hard-earned profits! That despicable Fifth Prince! And what's more, he dares to discard us after we've served our purpose!"
Looking dejected, Yu Xiaogang sat in his guest room, took a sip of tea, and said resentfully.
That's right, his original teaching staff dormitory room has been reclaimed, and now he can only pay to stay in the academy's guest rooms. The daily rent is one gold soul coin.
It's not that he, the master, is short of money—well, actually he is quite short. It's that he can't stand this kind of humiliation!
He had completely forgotten that he had only been teaching at Blue Tyrant Academy for less than a month.
Tang San looked at his respected teacher with a hint of resentment in his eyes. After absorbing Blue Tyrant Academy, the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy had actually standardized the requirements for teachers, removing Yu Xiaogang from the faculty due to his insufficient soul power level!
Now, Yu Xiaogang is no longer qualified to teach publicly; he can only teach small classes for Tang San.
What a humiliation! The continent's foremost theoretical master has been trampled upon like this! This Heavenly Dou Empire truly looks down on people!
What's even more infuriating is that Flander, Liu Erlong, Zhao Wuji, and even Li Yusong, who were originally teachers at Shrek Academy, all remained in their original positions, and some even held high-ranking posts.
Flander and Zhao Wuji, both with Soul Saint cultivation, became Deans of Studies at the Heaven Dou level; Liu Erlong, the former Dean of the Blue Tyrant Soul Master Academy, continued to serve as the current Principal of the "Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Second Academy." Yu Xiaogang didn't say anything on the surface, but secretly his eyes were red with anger.
Countless times, he secretly hoped that Liu Erlong would take the initiative to give up all this wealth and glory, and start anew with him, leaving everything behind! Erlong, oh Erlong, I never imagined you were this kind of woman. I, Yu Xiaogang, truly misjudged you.
Recently, he could sense that the way his former students, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun, and others looked at him was becoming increasingly strange; at least, the respect they once showed was nowhere near what it used to be.
After escaping the closed-off brainwashing environment of Shrek Academy, the Grandmaster's "magic" was also dispelled at lightning speed. Only Tang San and Xiao Wu still respected him.
The master didn't say anything on the surface, but his heart was bleeding inside!
"Teacher. How about we..."
Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang and suddenly said.
