Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 253 So as not to dirty the academy

The exchange and learning period quickly came to an end, and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy prepared to switch back their students.

The two sides met at Yuming Pass again.

While Dai Huabin, Xu Sanshi, and the other Shrek Academy exchange students walked toward Yan Shaozhe, Jiang Nannan remained behind Jing Hongchen without making a move.

Xiao Xiao, who was standing to the side, took a few steps forward and, noticing that she was not moving, asked curiously, "Sister Nan Nan, what's wrong?"

Jiang Nannan remained calm as she declared in front of everyone, "I want to stay at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy."

When she said those words, Xu Sanshi was the first to get emotional. He looked at Jiang Nannan in disbelief and shouted, "Nannan, stop joking! Let's go back to Shrek Academy!"

Jiang Nannan frowned, glared at Xu Sanshi, and said in a deep voice, "Xu Sanshi! I've told you countless times, you're not allowed to call me so intimately!"

Yan Shaozhe, standing some distance away, frowned and said, "Jiang Nannan, have you thought this through?"

"Sister Nan Nan, stop joking around. Dean Yan is still waiting for us to come over." Xiao Xiao looked at Yan Shaozhe, who was looking serious and starting to get angry, and quickly said to Jiang Nan Nan.

Jiang Nannan shook her head and said, "I'm not joking, I'm serious!"

Then she looked at Yan Shaozhe and said to him, "Dean Yan, Shrek Academy shouldn't have a rule that students can't drop out of school at will, right?"

"Of course not." Yan Shaozhe shook his head.

Shrek Academy doesn't have strict rules for students from the outer academy. Jiang Nannan hasn't entered the inner academy yet, so theoretically she could apply to withdraw directly, and the academy couldn't stop her.

Yan Shaozhe gazed at her and said, "With your talent, you have the potential to become a Title Douluo in the path of martial spirit cultivation. You don't care at all? Besides, the academy has invested a great deal in your training over the years!"

In his view, going to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy would mean that his martial soul cultivation would be completely abandoned!

After Yan Shaozhe said these words, Xiao Xiao's expression changed. She looked at Yan Shaozhe and remained silent.

Jing Hongchen stood in front of Jiang Nannan and smiled at Yan Shaozhe, saying, "Dean Yan, don't worry. The debt that Jiang owes to Shrek Academy will be borne by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy! After you go back, just make a list and send it to Mingdu."

If it were anyone else from Shrek Academy here, their answer would definitely be that they didn't need to worry about these things, but Yan Shaozhe was different. He nodded and said, "Okay!"

Yan Shaozhe was not saddened by Jiang Nannan's departure, because in his view, losing Jiang Nannan and gaining Jiang Shengyu and Jiang Qingtong was a very worthwhile deal.

Standing behind Yan Shaozhe, Jiang Shengyu and Jiang Qingtong found it laughable; such a petty and narrow-minded person was indeed unfit for a great responsibility.

Xiao Xiao's expression changed slightly when she saw Yan Shaozhe nod in agreement.

Jiang Nannan reassured Xiao Xiao, telling her not to worry.

Yan Shaozhe said, "Dai Huabin, Xu Sanshi, Xiao Xiao, aren't you coming over here?"

After the three of them arrived, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen also led a group of Soul Master exchange students back to Xiao Hongchen's side.

Jing Hongchen already knew about Jiang Shengyu and Jiang Qingtong's plans, but seeing them still standing there, he played along. He frowned and asked, "Shengyu, Qingtong, why aren't you coming over?" Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe laughed, seemingly having regained his composure. He tilted his head slightly and said to Jing Hongchen, "I'm sorry, Hall Master Hongchen, the two of them have decided to stay at Shrek Academy!"

Jing Hongchen cooperated perfectly by showing an expression of astonishment and anger.

Jiang Shengyu also cupped his hands to Jing Hongchen and said, "Senior Brother, Qing Tong and I plan to continue our studies at Shrek Academy! Please rest assured, we will always be our teacher's disciples!"

Yan Shaozhe was in a great mood and naturally didn't delve into the second half of Jiang Shengyu's words. With a wave of his hand, he gathered all the Shrek Academy disciples and turned to leave.

The angry expressions of the Hong family gradually subsided after Yan Shaozhe left.

Jiang Nannan frowned as she looked at the three of them. Just as she was about to speak to comfort Jing Hongchen, she heard Jing Hongchen say to Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, "Grandpa's acting was pretty good just now, wasn't it?"

Meng Hongchen smiled and nodded, saying, "Excellent! You can go and act in the TV series Qing Tong mentioned!"

“Yuhao is already discussing it with Ziwen. If I’m still alive when you’ve grown up, I might actually be able to act in it,” Jing Hongchen said with a smile.

Ai Cao, Jiang Nannan, and the others looked at him in surprise. Jiang Nannan asked, "Dean Hongchen, you..."

Jing Hongchen's gaze fell on the bewildered Jiang Nannan, and he waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry, we were just acting just now."

Jiang Nannan's background had already been thoroughly investigated by Mingde Hall, so Jing Hongchen did not hide anything from her. Speaking out could also reassure the anxious students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Upon hearing Jing Hongchen's words, Jiang Nannan looked stunned and exclaimed in surprise, "Sheng Yu and Qing Tong, the others..."

Meng Hongchen gently patted Jiang Nannan's shoulder and said, "It's good that you know. Let's go back to Mingdu first! The one on the Yuming Pass tower has been watching this way the whole time."

Everyone looked over there and saw Dai Hao standing there, staring intently at them.

Jing Hongchen assigned each person a flying soul tool and took them back to Mingdu.

After Yan Shaozhe returned to Shrek Academy with Jiang Shengyu and his group, he went to the Sea God Pavilion to report back. He vividly described Jing Hongchen's angry state to Xuanzi, as if he had finally gotten his revenge. However, Xuanzi was still somewhat disappointed when Jiang Nannan's matter was mentioned.

"I never expected that she would choose the Sun and Moon Empire."

After Xuanzi sighed, Elder Song said indifferently, "That's good! It's better for those with ulterior motives to leave the academy sooner rather than later, so as not to taint the academy! I've heard of Jiang Nannan, what a pity. She has no future in the Sun Moon Empire."

Yan Shaozhe nodded and said, "Indeed, Jiang Nannan's martial soul is the Soft Bone Rabbit, which is not a top-tier martial soul. If she goes to the Sun Moon Empire, she will probably only be able to take the path of a Soul Master, and a Soul Master... has no future."

"Yan Shaozhe, what you said is wrong!" Xian Lin'er glanced at Yan Shaozhe from the side and protested with a frown.

"Alright, alright, there's no need to argue about someone who left the academy."

Xuanzi waved his hand and said to everyone, "Jiang Shengyu and Jiang Qingtong are both staying at the academy. They will serve as the captain and vice-captain of the Soul Master Competition team. As for the other contestants, Shao Zhe, you can start choosing."

"Yes, Elder Xuan!" Yan Shaozhe nodded and accepted the task.
