NOVEL NEXT Chapter 70: Dai Mubai
Feng Xuan's gaze did not stay on these applicants for too long, his gaze looked ahead of the queue, to the application place. Eyesight and hearing were promoted under continued practice, he was vaguely able to hear the dialogue there.
The old man sitting behind the desk accepting applications looked to have a lazy appearance, to speak a bit pleasantly about his clothes they were simple and unadorned, what he saw, was like an elderly villager, even without the lively look of Holy Spirit village's old Jack.
At this moment, a youngster came before the table to apply. The old man lazily said:
"The application fee is ten gold spirit coins, put it in that chest."
The parents following the youngster hastily fished out ten gold spirit coins and placed them in the nailed-together wooden chest to the side.
"Extend just a hand."
The youngster as told extended his hand before the old man, the old man kneaded the hand a little while, shaking his head towards him, saying:
"Your age is wrong, you can leave."
The youngster was stunned a moment, turning his head to look at his parents, more than ten years old children as precocious as Tang San could be not many.
His father hastily fixed a smile saying:
"Teacher, my son has only recently passed his thirteenth birthday, you see, couldn't you be flexible once?"
The old man a bit impatiently said:
"Don't affect later people. Do you not know the Academy's rules? Our place only accepts children under thirteen years old. Exceeding thirteen years of age, without exception is not accepted. You can leave."
The youngster's father said:
"Then our application fee… "
The old man without a trace of politeness said:
"An application is generally not refunded."
A clay figurine still was three tenths a warrior, the youngster's father could not help but angrily say:
"This is a swindle for money. Withdraw our application fee, if not we will not leave. Had I known earlier this Shrek Academy was this rotten, we should not have come."
The old man shot him a glance, indifferently saying:
"Mubai, someone wants their application fee back, you handle it at once."
On the ground to the side, a person's figure suddenly leapt up,
"Wanting the application fee back, after beating me, the whole amount is returned."
This person was exactly Dai Mubai, before because of sitting to the side, obstructed by the crowd, Tang San had not seen him. From that day when Tang San with Xiao Wu met him he was somewhat different, right now his expression was rather grudging.
Dai Mubai also did not speak nonsense, directly using his spirit power, releasing two hundred years and one thousand year altogether three spirit rings. Surging spirit power radiated out intangible pressure in the air, in the evil eyes a cold light continuously flashing, regarding that father and son.
"Brother Xuan he is lecher but his strength is much higher." Said Xiao wu to Feng Xuan.
Between spirit masters, spirit rings were eternally the best word of authority, seeing that one thousand year spirit ring among three spirit rings on Dai Mubai's body, the youngster's father's complexion changed greatly, and leaving behind a sentence regarding 'our bad luck', pulled his son and quickly left.
Dai Mubai returned to his seat, evil eyes sweeping over the youngsters and parents there for signing up, threatening meaning abundantly clear. The oppressive force produced by the three spirit rings could not be endured by ordinary people. The current him was no longer like a wealthy spendthrift, but on the contrary like a hired thug.
After this scene, the lined up waiting people immediately reduced by a third, who still wanted to spend money in vain, let alone, when this Shrek Academy exterior before them made people not dare compliment.
Again an applicant youngster came before the old man, he was followed by both parents, his mother full with confidence placing ten gold coins in the wooden chest, the youngster smartly extending a hand.
The old man kneaded his hand, faintly yellow gaze looking at the youngster, saying:
"Exactly twelve years old. Release your spirit, let me have a look."
The youngster nodded, faint green spirit power releasing from within his body, a hundred year spirit ring rhythmically hovering up and down his body.
The hundred year spirit ring's atmosphere was not weak, spirit appearing, a crude long vine spiralling around his body.
This spirit somewhat resembled Tang San's blue silver grass, only, his spirit was not a grass, but directly was a vine, similar to Tang San's second spirit ring's ghost vine, merely lacking the ghost vine's poison.
The old man shook his head, saying:
"Not qualified, you can leave."
The youngster's parents' originally filled with confidence expressions, hearing the old man say their child was not qualified, the expressions on their faces immediately froze, his mother couldn't help but ask:
"Why? My son in primary spirit academy was a student of great ability. Did you not see his spirit ring is a hundred years? Spirit masters possessing a hundred-year spirit ring can not be many."
The old man indifferently said:
"The first spirit ring being a hundred year spirit ring is naturally pretty good, only, he is only an ordinary person."
The youngster's father frowning said:
"I do not get your meaning."
The old man somewhat impatiently got up from behind the desk, not only facing the youngster's parents before him but simultaneously also towards the applicants lining up behind them saying:
"Coming to our Shrek Academy, you should first be clear on the regulations. Without being clear and coming here, you are only delivering the registration fee in vain, nothing more. Right now there is still time to regret. Do you not know the meaning of 'Shrek' in our Shrek Academy?"
The majority of the applicants on hearing the old man's words had blank expressions.
The old man coldly said:
"Shrek is a kind of monster, even among spirit beasts it is still an odd existence. Our Shrek Academy's meaning, is an academy only for monsters. One could also say, we only accept monsters, do not accept ordinary people. If age surpasses thirteen years of age, or spirit power does not reach over the twentieth rank, need not waste time here."
