Within the Sea God's Pavilion!
Long Yeyue held a tone tinged with emotion and said, "Several days have passed since those children left Shrek Academy, and we have no news of their well-being!"
Cai Yue'er smiled faintly, "I believe, except for the Eastern Military Region where Tang Wulin has been sent to, which is the farthest, the rest should have already reached their respective assigned destinations. And as new recruits, they are probably not going to have an easy time!"
Feng Wu Yu nodded slightly, "Indeed, joining the military might sound simple, but only after actually doing so can one understand the stark differences from the outside world. I wonder if the children will be able to adapt?"
If they rely on their Soul Emperor strength to act recklessly in the army, they'll definitely face serious consequences!
Ya'li covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "Elder Feng, your worries are a bit excessive. They are the new Shrek Seven Monsters, after all, and moreover, they have successfully completed their training on Demon Island. Their adaptability goes without saying!"
Turbid World also stood with his hands behind his back, concurring, "Elder Ya'li is right. As an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion, you should have more confidence in our Shrek Academy's students!"
Feng Wu Yu pursed his lips, knowing that indeed, his worries seemed unnecessary.
If they had already passed the trials of Demon Island, could the military be more difficult than that?
Yuan En Zhentian, who had been silent up until now, spoke in a deep voice, "In the end, I am still curious as to why Elder Long sent Tang Wulin to the toughest military region."
Long Yeyue glanced at the former, her beautiful eyes illuminating with a few sparkles, "Mhm? As someone qualified to inherit the position of Pavilion Master of the Sea God's Pavilion, even if it is military service, naturally one would choose the place that presents the most challenges, right?"
Yuan En Zhentian sighed, "That's true... but to go there alone seems a bit too lonely!"
Almost every one of the Shrek Seven Monsters was assigned to a military region in pairs, except for Tang Wulin. He was the only one going alone, and to the harshest environment at that!
"Elder Yuan'en, that's where you're wrong. Isn't Wulin accompanied by Gu Yue?"
The Sea God Pavilion Elders had clearly become accustomed to Xu Sheng's sudden appearances.
But they were still very curious about what he had just said.
Cai Yue'er narrowed her eyes, "Elder Xu, what do you mean by that? Accompanied by Gu Yue? Isn't she working at the Spirit Pagoda?"
Turbid World stroked his chin, adding, "I heard she even obtained the recognition of Vice Tower Master Qiangu Qingfeng. That old guy doesn't easily acknowledge someone!"
Ya'li speculated, "Could it be that Gu Yue has resigned from her position at the Spirit Pagoda to join Wulin in the military?"
Facing everyone's questions, Xu Sheng spoke softly, "Elder Ya'li, you're only half right. It wasn't Gu Yue who actively resigned, but she got the approval from the Lord of the Cold Tower!"
Gu Yue being able to join Tang Wulin and enlist was something even he had not anticipated!
Lost in thought, Long Yeyue said, "I see. Then we should quickly report Gu Yue's situation to the Eastern Military Region, or else that child may not be able to get in!"
Cai Yue'er responded, "Leave that to me. They should still have a day or two before they arrive. There's enough time."
...
Before long, the news that the Shrek Seven Monsters had successively enlisted spread throughout the outer court, sparking discussion among the newly joined students!
"Did you hear? The most talented Shrek Seven Monsters from our academy have all chosen to join the military! Could it be that they're planning to enter the War God Hall in the future?"
"Mm-hmm, I think it's possible. The federal government practically controls all the military forces on the Soul Land Continent, and the War God Hall is directly under the federation. It's hard not to believe it!"
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean betraying our Shrek Academy? How can this be allowed!"
"How is joining the War God Hall a betrayal? One of our academy's alumni is now an official War God in the War God Hall!"
"Hiss... Really? I never expected the War God of the War God Hall to be a student trained by our Shrek Academy!"
Having witnessed all this, Cai Yue'er immediately put on a stern face and shouted at all the new students who were discussing, "Is everyone skipping class? Or do you want to be at the bottom at the end of the term and be eliminated from the academy??"
As soon as her words fell, all the discussing students shut their mouths and hurriedly made their way to the teaching building....
Clearly, aside from the senior students and inner court students who knew her true personality, the newly joined students were genuinely afraid of her!
The few teachers standing beside Cai Yue'er finally breathed a sigh of relief....
One of the teachers remarked with emotion, "The words of Academy President Cai are truly effective. Should we also be more strict?"
Another teacher agreed deeply, "Indeed, strict teachers produce outstanding students. Perhaps I should also change my teaching methods!"
"The most important thing is that we still don't know how the Shrek Seven Monsters joining the army spread to the Outer Court! It has caused quite a stir!"
"Hmm, but those who are influenced are mostly just the new kids, right? Perhaps in their eyes, joining another power right after graduating from the academy amounts to betrayal!"
Cai Yue'er also expressed her helplessness, "Please address this in class, respected teachers, and make it clear to these new youngsters!"
No matter how powerful Shrek Academy was, it was ultimately an "academy" responsible for nurturing talented Soul Masters!
Apart from the few who would assume roles as academy teachers or Elders of the Sea God Pavilion in the future, all graduates had to leave the academy to seek their own futures!
This was also why graduates of Shrek Academy could be found across various powers!
Naturally, the teachers had no objections and respectfully said, "Yes, Academy President Cai!"
They then left one after another....
Only Shen Yi still wore a look of silent grievance and said, "What about me? Academy President Cai, even though I've been appointed as the Vice President of the Outer Court, it doesn't mean I should handle every big and small matter alone, does it?"
"Isn't this treating me like free labor?"
Coming out of seclusion back then might have been a wrong decision!
Cai Yue'er blinked her beautiful eyes and said softly, "As the saying goes, the capable should bear more burdens. Shen Yi, this is also preparation for you to assume the position of president in the future!"
Shen Yi pursed her lips and muttered under her breath, "Becoming the President of the Outer Court? No thanks, becoming an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion would be more like it!"
Serving as vice president was tiring enough, becoming president would mean being this busy every day!
It seemed as though she had heard her words, Cai Yue'er continued nonchalantly, "If you really reach the realm of a Hyper Douluo, I'll personally recommend you to become an elder of the Sea God Pavilion, provided I haven't fallen by that time!"
Who knows how many more years of peace the Continent can maintain!
Shen Yi, realizing there was a deeper meaning in her words, said in shock, "Academy President Cai?"
Was she, the Academy President, prepared to fall at any moment?
