Hearing Dai Mubai's words, the four people following him simultaneously fell silent for a moment, but it was still Xiao Wu who couldn't help speaking first, This was too strict. No wonder the teacher at the door said that you only accept monsters here. Only monsters could pass these four tests. I would like to ask, how many students does Shrek Academy have now? How many students could they recruit every year?”
This time it was Dai Mubai's turn to reveal a wry smile. "In the twenty years since our Shrek Academy was founded, we've accepted a total of forty-two students. On average, there were a little more than two a year. If all four of you are accepted this year, it will be a record. Before this, the academy had not accepted any students for two years. Currently, there are three students in the academy, including me.”
"Three?" Besides the icy cold girl, Tang San, Xiao Wu and that gentle girl practically simultaneously cried out in alarm.
"In the entire Douluo Continent, we can be considered the only academy with more teachers than students. Even if we accept you, the number of students in our academy will never exceed the number of teachers.”
"If that's the case, how can the Academy survive? Without a source of students, there should be no income.”
"Otherwise why do you think the Academy would be in such a small village? It was because they lacked funds. If it wasn't for my family's sponsorship, I'm afraid the academy would have closed down last year. If we still can't recruit students this year, then the three of us will be Shrek Academy's last batch of students.”
"Then why doesn't the academy relax the requirements for the entrance exam? I think there are quite a few people who signed up." The beautiful girl asked in confusion.
Dai Mubai's face revealed a trace of respect,"The dean said, rather lack than quantity, no matter when, even if Shrek Academy closes its doors, it absolutely won't accept trash. Only monsters. Do you know what the requirements for graduation are? We're neither an intermediate Spirit Master academy nor an advanced Spirit Master academy. Because our requirements are different from theirs. We only want students under the age of thirteen, and they must be exceptionally talented. And the academy's graduation requirement was to surpass the fortieth rank, and moreover to surpass the fortieth rank before the age of twenty, reaching the level of a Spirit Ancestor before being allowed to graduate.”
"The academy accepted a total of sixty-two students, but only fourteen of them actually graduated. After these fourteen people left the academy, all of them became figures that attracted worldwide attention. The most outstanding one among them was now already the youngest elder in Spirit Hall, his authority second only to the Supreme Pontiff. The rest who didn't graduate were unable to complete rank-40 cultivation before the age of 20 or died while hunting spirit beasts. The dean had said that if one was not at level 41, one should not go out and embarrass him.”
Speaking to the end, Dai Mubai's mood clearly became agitated. Towards that Shrek Academy dean, he was clearly extremely respectful.
"I'm very glad to be able to come here.”
"The Balak Kingdom's royal family originally intended to sponsor the academy, but demanded that the students graduating from the academy must be loyal to the royal family, which was directly rejected by the dean. Our Shrek Academy is incompatible with the other academies and has been ostracized. That's why we've become like this.”
Tang San suddenly discovered that he very much desired to see that dean Dai Mubai spoke of. He very much wanted to see just what kind of person could persist in building such an academy in twenty years.
"We're here." Dai Mubai stopped. At this moment, they arrived at another empty space. This place was much smaller than the second stage, only about 200 square meters. A middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties was dozing off on a chair.
"Teacher Zhao, I've brought some people here for the fourth test.”
"Hmm? Someone came to the fourth stage this year? There are actually four of them." The middle-aged man opened his sleepy eyes and looked at the four young men and women in front of him with some surprise, as if he had encountered something unbelievable.
"Not only did the four of them come to the fourth trial, but they were also exempted from the second and third trials.”
Teacher Zhao's eyes lit up and he stood up from his chair. He was not tall and had an ordinary appearance. However, it looked extremely sturdy. Even shorter than the twelve year old Tang San, his height unexpectedly gave people a majestic feeling.
His broad shoulders were like a city wall, and his coat could not hide his sturdy muscles that seemed to be forged from steel. Although his expression was amiable, his sturdy body gave off a strong pressure.
"All four of them are above level 25. Not bad, not bad. Looks like there are quite a few little monsters this year. This is the final test. You'll officially become a member of Shrek Academy after passing my test. However, my test isn't that easy to pass. Every Spirit Master must possess actual combat experience. What I am testing is your ability in this aspect.”
"I'm called Zhao Wuji, since you four all passed the second and third tests without testing, then I'll personally play with you." Now, I'll give you 15 minutes to understand each other and discuss. After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the test began. The content of the test is for the four of you to work together to block my attack for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. As long as one of you can last until the end, you will pass. I hope you understand that you shouldn't try any tricks. No one can use speed to escape this area. "At the same time, I can also remind you that it's impossible for you to block my attack with your own strength. Cooperating with each other is your only chance of success.”
