Douluo Continent: Narration Modified, Plot Begins to Collapse

Chapter 41 Flanders: I love doing charity

The next day, perhaps because Taishe had died the night before, Tang San didn't return to the inn until noon. He inquired with the lobby staff about Bai Yu and Xiao Wu's room before knocking on the door.

About five minutes later, Bai Yu opened the door and, upon seeing Tang San, smiled and asked:

"Are you alright, mistress?"

He didn't ask Tang San why he wanted to be with Dai Mubai, nor did he ask Tang San any other awkward questions. Just five short words moved Tang San, who had been suffering from insomnia for half the night, to tears.

Xiaoyu still thinks about me!

"I'm fine. Did you sleep well last night?"

I slept quite soundly, well, very soundly, no, it was the water in the bathtub that was quite moist.

He now finally understands the meaning of "soft as if boneless".

Tang San thought for a moment, then suddenly stepped into the room, taking in all the furnishings. Finding nothing unusual, he shouted:

"Xiao Wu, are you there? We're about to set off!"

Xiao Wu's voice came from the guest room:

"Wait me a moment!"

Tang San looked at Bai Yu in astonishment:

"You're letting Xiaowu, a girl, sleep in the guest room?"

Bai Yu nodded, while Tang San felt both contempt and relief in his heart. How could a guy like you, who doesn't know how to cherish women, possibly win over Xiao Wu? Only a peerless warm-hearted man like me should be with Xiao Wu!

Soon, Xiao Wu came out carrying her bundle, but her steps were a little unsteady.

Tang San asked in confusion:

"Xiao Wu, did you not sleep well last night?"

Xiao Wu nodded, not wanting to say more.

Tang San didn't think about it. How could a level 29 Great Soul Master have unsteady steps if he simply didn't sleep well?

He glanced at Bai Yu and thought to himself, "It's all your fault for making Xiao Wu sleep in the guest room, that's why she didn't sleep well."

To highlight his thoughtfulness and Bai Yu's low emotional intelligence, Tang San took the initiative to walk towards Xiao Wu, extending his hand while flashing a fawning smile:

"Xiao Wu, let me help you with your bag."

Xiao Wu thought about it and decided that it wouldn't be bad to have Tang San act as a luggage rack, so she handed the bundle to him.

Tang San laughed even harder, carrying Xiao Wu's bundle as if he were happier than if he had obtained a hundred-year soul ring, and quickly walked downstairs.

Bai Yu and Xiao Wu exchanged a glance and walked down together.

The three found Shrek Academy, and there, at the entrance of a village on the outskirts of Soto City, a disheveled old man was sitting under a simple tent. On the wooden table in front of him was a wooden sign that read "Registration Office," and the words "Shrek Academy" were hanging at the entrance of the village.

Yes, the character "克" (kè) has fallen off due to prolonged exposure to sun and rain.

"Shi Lai Academy, pfft."

Xiao Wu couldn't help but laugh out loud. After realizing that Bai Yu and Tang San were walking ahead of her and hadn't heard her, she quickly followed.

The three of them were queuing together when suddenly, Tang San seemed to sense something and looked up at a big tree in the village.

On the big tree, Dai Mubai, who was idly dozing off, also sensed something and suddenly looked over.

Their eyes met, filled with shock and anger, instantly turning red.

The next moment, Dai Mubai jumped down, and Tang San rushed over. Just as the two were about to start fighting without any explanation, Li Yusong, who was in charge of registration, activated all his spirit rings and suppressed Dai Mubai and Tang San with his powerful spirit power!

"Ridiculous! Is this a place for your private duels?"

Li Yusong said coldly.

Dai Mubai calmed down, hid his clenched fists behind his back, and bowed to Li Yusong.

"I'm sorry, Teacher Li, I lost my composure."

Li Yusong nodded. Dai Mubai was a student at the academy, and he had sponsored the academy with a lot of money, so he couldn't handle the situation. He turned to Tang San and asked:

What grudge do you have against him?

Tang San's face immediately froze.

I have a grudge, but I'm too embarrassed to say it!

Seeing him stammer, Li Yusong frowned and questioned him sharply:

"If you have no grudge against me, then why did you attack a student from Shrek Academy without authorization? Are you courting death?"

At this moment, Dai Mubai quickly came to the rescue:

"Teacher Li, he must have mistaken me for his enemy."

He didn't want the news of his relationship with Tang San to spread throughout Shrek Academy!

Tang San nodded frantically, indicating that he had mistaken Tang San for someone else. Li Yusong then snorted coldly and let Tang San go for the time being.

However, he had already made a mental note that if Tang San's aptitude was average, he would not register Tang San.

Li Yusong walked back to the table, looked at a student's parent, and asked:

"What were you trying to do just now?"

The student's parent's legs went weak, and they murmured unconsciously:

"Refund! Refund the registration fee! No, I don't want it anymore, I don't want it!"

The teacher in charge of registration was actually a Soul Emperor, stronger than the deans of other academies. Why would he need a registration fee? He'd be lucky to escape with his life!

Seeing this, Bai Yu secretly curled his lip. It was clearly Shrek Academy that failed to publicize its rules and then tried to bully the weak and extort money. Flander, that old swindler, was obsessed with money. Well, I'll make sure you don't have any money to be greedy for!

[Plot: Shrek Academy stipulates that applicants must pay ten gold soul coins to enroll]

Bai Yu changed "交" to "领"!

At this moment, Flander suddenly appeared out of nowhere, a slight smirk playing on his lips, and said to Li Yusong:

"Don't scare the students like that, it makes it sound like all the teachers at Shrek Academy are unscrupulous businessmen."

Li Yusong silently withdrew his soul ring.

Flander then looked at Dai Mubai and nodded. Dai Mubai immediately understood and stepped forward, saying:

"That's the rule at Shrek Academy: if you want to enroll, you need to pay ten gold soul coins first, and they're non-refundable!"

Before he could finish speaking, Flanders suddenly interrupted him in surprise:

"Huh? What did you say?"

Dai Mubai was stunned, not understanding where he had said something wrong.

Seeing this, Flander, exasperated, lectured him:

"What? Ten gold soul coins? Do you think I'm the kind of greedy businessman who's just looking to make a quick buck? Everyone who enrolls at Shrek Academy gets ten gold soul coins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience erupted in cheers.

The parent who had just wanted a refund of the registration fee was a little scared, but also a little hopeful, and asked:

"Really?"

Ten gold soul coins are no small amount for him!

Flander walked to the wooden table, took out twenty gold soul coins from the box where the registration fees were kept, and threw them into his hand.

"Of course it's true! I, Flander, vouch for it with my own reputation!"

Dai Mubai: "???"

Has the dean gone mad?

Am I going crazy?

The miserly Flander actually gave out money?

Isn't Teacher Li going to do anything about this? Have they all gone mad?

Can I get a refund for the money I previously donated to Shrek Academy?

The line kept moving forward, and even the students who didn't qualify received money, which made them overjoyed. They quickly left the scene with their parents and friends.

They were going to go home and tell all their relatives, friends, and neighbors to come to Shrek Academy to collect their money!

The village has distributed Gold Soul Coins!

Soon, Bai Yu and Xiao Wu walked to the wooden table.

Flander took out twenty gold soul coins and gave them to them. Then he tested their physique and nodded in satisfaction, indicating that they had passed the first test.

It was Tang San's turn to be tested next. Li Yusong examined his body and said calmly:

"You're not qualified, next one!"
