“However...” Wu Zhangkong changed the course of the conversation so abruptly that everyone turned their attention on him immediately once again. “We can’t think of anything but perhaps we can seek opinions from other people. There are a total of twelve members in the Sea God’s Pavilion now. I propose that we add in one more member to maintain the odd number as before. We should extend our invitation to the Old Demon Greed to join the Sea God’s Pavilion. The seven old demons have lived a long life and they are experienced. Perhaps, they will be able to propose some ideas that we can’t think of.”

The group was taken aback by his words.

No one would enjoy the company of those seven demons, but they had to admit that they had received huge benefits from the ‘military training’ all those years ago.

The seven old demons were Shrek’s special teaching method that was not known to outsiders. Only the most outstanding disciples were qualified to receive their guidance. The miniature world created for them had already stabilized. There was only a small vortex left on the outside for the Seven Holy Abyss, and no one had any idea about the appearance on the inside.

Tang Wulin looked toward Long Yeyue and found that she was frowning deeply. “I loathe those people. However, I have no choice but to say that none of us can measure up to them when it comes to contributions to the students. Since they are back now, the Sea God’s Pavilion should offer them a position. However, there can only be one!”

Judging by seniority and contribution, there was no doubt that all seven old demons qualified to be members of the Sea God’s Pavilion. Even so, the Sea God’s Pavilion could be overturned if all seven of them were included. As a result, Long Yeyue’s stipulation was that there could only be one of them.

Tang Wulin nodded. “I agree as well. Teacher Wu, please head over and extend the invitation to Senior Old Demon Greed.”

“Sure.” Wu Zhangkong stood up and left.

The Sea God Pavilion Meeting sank into a momentary silence. None of them could come up with a good idea for the pressing matter at hand.

It did not take long before Wu Zhangkong returned with Old Demon Greed floating by his side.

The old demon’s body appeared to be solid, at least on the surface. He did not look like a soul at all. His chubby figure made him appear wealthy while there was a friendly smile on his face. Judging by his appearance, no one would be able to tell that this person was so monstrous.

However, everyone from Shrek that was familiar with him was well aware that he was the leader of the seven old demons. Despite their constant quarrels, the other six old demons abided by him in all serious matters. He deserved his reputation of being the first among them on the Demon Island.

“Senior Greed.” Everyone stood up and saluted Old Demon Greed. The entire group was junior to him after all.

Old Demon Greed walked to Long Yeyue’s side with a smile on his face. “Little Yue Yue, I want to sit by your side. What do you think of that?”

Long Yeyue had a long face. “As you wish.”

Old Demon Greed’s next sentence almost made Elder Long turn hostile. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell them about what happened in the past. It’s nothing much really...”

“Shut up!” Long Yeyue cursed in rage. Her spiritual power surged in her body.

Old Demon Greed burst out laughing. There was a flash of red light across his body and Long Yeyue’s formidable spiritual power quickly vanished.

“I won’t tell. I won’t tell.” Every person in the same row began shifting to the next seat so they could give the spot next to Long Yeyue for Old Demon Greed.

“Old Demon Greed, how’s everything in the Seven Holy Abyss now?” asked Tang Wulin with concern.

“Very well, very well. The Ancient Life Tree is incredible. The miniature world is extremely stable and not in any way inferior to the main world. As long as there’s nothing wrong with the Ancient Life Tree, the Seven Holy Abyss is as strong as iron. Impressive, quite impressive. It’s just as strong as our previous place. Most importantly, the scene is bustling scene there! We like when things are busy.”

Tang Wulin spoke with a bitter smile, “We will still require that all of you seniors not harass the people inside the academy.”

Old Demon Greed spoke smilingly, “What do you mean by harass? This is a trial for everyone. Alright, I have agreed to join the Sea God’s Pavilion. Speaking of which, this was our biggest wish when we were still alive. I didn’t expect that there would come a day when my wish would be fulfilled. Even though this is no longer the Sea God’s Pavilion of the past, an old fellow like me is still very pleased. Actually, if I were to be given the position of Pavilion Master, I can definitely guarantee that Shrek would advance at tremendous speed.”

He truly deserved the reputation of being Old Demon Greed. He did intend to conceal his ambition whatsoever.

Tang Wulin let out a cough. “Senior, the academy has genuinely encountered some issues recently. We hope to listen to suggestions from you and the other seniors.”

He began to explain the situation with the Spirit Pagoda’s Spirit Academy in simple terms.

Upon listening to Tang Wulin’s words, Old Demon Greed rolled his eyes. “Fools. All of you are a group of fools.”

Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment while Long Yeyue put on a long face once again. Only Yali was still speaking with a smile, “Why do you say that, senior?”

Old Demon Greed rolled his eyes. “Let me ask you, what is Shrek?”

Yali answered, “The number one academy on the continent.”

Old Demon Greed continued to speak, “So who are the students that we teach?”

Tang Wulin chimed in and said, “Outstanding youths, geniuses and soul masters.”

Old Demon Greed pouted his lips. “Nonsense. Utter nonsense. We teach monsters. All of Shrek is made up of monsters. As a result, we are a monster academy. What is a monster? A monster is not only a genius. During a crucial juncture, the unreasonable one is the monster. Let me ask you, what is the reason the Spirit Pagoda dared not build Spirit Academy in the past? It is because Shrek was too mighty. They dared not offend the great and powerful when the best on the continent was still around. All of you have been caught in a misconception, which is that you’re using ordinary measures to enroll students. We are a monster academy. Why should we compete with the Spirit Pagoda using common methods? All of you are monsters. Are the titles of the Shrek Seven Monsters given for nothing?”

Upon listening to Old Demon Greed’s words, Tang Wulin suddenly felt like a brand-new door had opened right in front of him. Yes! His train of thought seemed to be overly orthodoxed because he could only think of using standard measures to compete against the Spirit Pagoda.

Old Demon Greed sniggered. “The method to deal with Spirit Pagoda is as simple as it can be. Fight them! Fight them from the front.”

The corner of Long Yeyue’s lips twitched. Gradually, her lips curved into an arc. Tang Wulin’s eyes glowed brighter and brighter.

It seemed like he had an idea! The old demon truly deserved his reputation!

A week passed.

Almost all the soul television channels across the entire continent were broadcasting news about Spirit Academy’s enrollment program.

Spirit Academy had announced the academy’s situation and also the direction of enrollment.

They would be offering two branches which were the soul master academy and the mecha academy. The academy would be located beside the Spirit Pagoda’s headquarters. It was less than fifteen kilometers away from Shrek Academy.

The mecha academy offered standard courses on white, yellow, purple and black mecha. The length of the course was twelve years. Mecha masters that passed the examination with rank-5 were allowed to graduate.

The mecha academy was set up to be a divine mecha academy with divine mecha being provided for teaching purposes. The mecha academy was established together with the Mecha’s Association, so all the teachers were qualified mecha masters of rank-7 and above with certification from the Mecha’s Association. There were also three divine mecha masters included in the academy.

As for soul master academy, it was divided into an ordinary academy and an advanced academy.

The length of the course for the ordinary academy was twelve years where a soul master with over four-ringed cultivation base was allowed to graduate. The soul master could also register for the advanced academy, which would give every resource needed by the soul master without the asking for any fees. Upon graduation, the soul master would need to join the Spirit Pagoda and work for the organization for at least five years. The Spirit Pagoda would supply the required spirit souls to the students of the advanced academy.

All the teachers in the Spirit Pagoda’s soul master academy were their high-ranking soul masters, including twelve Title Douluos and four Soul Douluos.

The Spirit Ascension Platform and the Ten Thousand Beast Platform would be building entrances in Spirit Academy. Outstanding students would be given the opportunity to enter by using their cumulative grade points. The Ten Thousand Beast Platform was only open to the divine mecha academy and the advanced soul master academy. Every student would be given two chances to enter for free every year.

Additionally, Spirit Academy also had a scholarship program. Scholarships would be provided based on one’s abilities. A registered student under the age of twelve whose cultivation base exceeded rank-20 soul power or was at least a rank-3 mecha master could be awarded a full scholarship. The student would also be prioritized for all financial aid.
