Chapter 40 Mo Yan: Otherwise, why are we here? To fight you?
What a 'go in and reminisce'!
If we go in, can we even come out?
Mu En, that Old Fox’s scheme was almost exposed to his Engulfing Sky Dragon.
Dugu Yan was not a big-chested, brainless woman. Listening to these words, she already understood what the owner of this voice was plotting.
Heh, to win them over!
They had previously been refused entry, she and her daughter, on the grounds that possessing such an uncontrollable Martial Soul could endanger all the teachers and students of the academy, and then a bunch of other flimsy reasons were added to keep them out.
Now he wants her to bring her daughter into the academy to reminisce, it’s truly sickening!
Du Weilun had already dispersed the New Students and Shrek Academy students and came before Xuan Zi, his face complex as he stared at the three people in front.
He never expected that the female Title Douluo before him was actually a descendant of Dugu who he and the Dean had refused entry to. How ironic!
Xuan Zi had, at some point, pulled out a chicken leg and was gnawing on it, waiting for Mu Lao’s command.
“Thank you for your kindness, senior. Today, I only brought them to register, but it seems there’s no need for that now.” Dugu Yan refused Mu En’s kind offer. “Shrek Academy’s claims of ‘teaching without discrimination’ and ‘treating everyone equally’ seem to be false. In that case, we won’t bother you, senior.”
Dugu Yan’s tone was calm and firm, carrying a hint of detachment. As soon as her voice fell, the surrounding air seemed to freeze for a moment.
Mu En’s voice did not sound again, seemingly surprised by Dugu Yan’s refusal, or perhaps he was pondering something.
Mo Yan and Dugu Luo stood behind Dugu Yan, watching her silently.
Dugu Luo’s eyes held a hint of worry, while Mo Yan looked indifferent, as if all of this was within her expectations.
Just as the three were about to leave, Mu En’s voice sounded again: “Indeed, our academy was in the wrong first, but shouldn’t that brown-haired little girl behind you be disciplined?”
Mu En finally chose to compromise. He absolutely could not let such a genius go, but he also couldn’t concede too much, or some fellows would take advantage.
Dugu Yan’s steps paused slightly when she heard Mu En’s voice again. She turned around, her gaze calmly directed towards Shrek Academy, her tone carrying a faint chill: “Senior, what do you mean by that?”
Mu En’s voice was still old and steady, but this time it carried a subtle sense of pressure: “Shrek Academy is indeed at fault, but you should also understand that the academy has its rules. That brown-haired little girl behind you caused quite a stir within the academy just now. If she were to leave just like that, it might be inappropriate.”
Dugu Yan frowned slightly upon hearing this. She knew Mu En was referring to Mo Yan. Just now, Mo Yan, in an effort to vent for her and her daughter, had indeed caused some commotion within Shrek Academy with her words. Although it wasn't too excessive, it was enough to attract the attention of certain individuals.
Mo Yan thought she was done with her specialty act, but now she had to appear again.
“Senior, aren’t your words a bit harsh?” Mo Yan spoke, “I just showed off my Tang San Dog, and that guy got angry and said he wanted to steal my dog’s name, and then he didn't like it when I gave it to him. Now what do you mean by being so aggressive?”
Du Weilun:
Xuan Zi:???
Mu En:.
Inside Sea God Pavilion, Mu En observed the changes in Mo Yan’s expression for a while but couldn’t discern anything, and a bad thought surfaced in his mind: ‘This little one wouldn’t happen to not know who Tang San’s Ancestor is, would she?’
As soon as this thought emerged, Mu En felt it was very reasonable.
Even if he knew she was saying it on purpose, what did it matter? As long as there was a way to save face!
“Little girl, don’t you know who our academy’s Tang San’s Ancestor is?” Mu En summarized his words in his mind and transmitted his voice, asking.
“Who is Tang San’s Ancestor?” Mo Yan, being very clever, knew that Mu En, that Old Fox, was giving everyone a way to save face, but she just wanted to vent for the Dugu mother and daughter, so she feigned a very innocent look: “Which parents are so heartless as to name their child Tang San?”
“Naming a child so carelessly, one can tell the parents aren’t great either.”
“A name like that, used for a dog, used on a person, is truly heartless. Will there really be someone named Tang San on this continent?”
“Oh~ I understand!” Mo Yan’s speed of changing expressions had completely reached a state of mastery: “No wonder you’re so angry; turns out you think my dog being called Tang San Dog is insulting your ancestor. I’m truly sorry.”
“But my dog is called Tang San Dog. Is it impossible for a dog’s name to be Tang San?”
“Your academy is really so cringe!”
Mo Yan’s words were like a heavy hammer, striking Mu En’s heart. Her tone was innocent, as if she truly knew nothing about the name “Tang San,” but every word carried a sting, directly hitting Shrek Academy’s sore spot.
Especially the last sentence, “My dog is called Tang San Dog,” instantly made Mu En’s face inside the Sea God Pavilion turn ashen.
He just wanted to give them a way out, but this fellow immediately took advantage and caused a huge scene for him.
Du Weilun, standing beside Xuan Zi, almost vomited blood from anger. If those words from Mo Yan were heard by Tang San’s fans, they would probably vomit blood and die on the spot.
Xuan Zi, who was eating a chicken leg, also had an extremely ugly expression. He now wished he could tear Mo Yan’s mouth apart. To insult Tang San’s Ancestor and his parents like this was simply courting death!
Dugu Yan and Dugu Luo both suppressed their laughter. Dugu Yan quickly spoke: “My Miss Mo Yan might have stayed in the family for too long and doesn’t know who Tang San’s Ancestor is. Please be more understanding, Senior.”
“No matter.” Mu En ultimately chose to forgive Mo Yan. After all, he couldn’t bear to push away a genius like her.
As for that so-called family, as long as he was eloquent and gave them the warm, spring-like care of the academy, he didn't believe he couldn't “dig” them out of their family’s embrace and into the academy!
“Little Du, recruitment will be tomorrow. You know how to handle other matters, right?” Mu En transmitted his voice to Du Weilun, telling him to silence the New Students, and then transmitted his voice to the three again: “Children’s words are innocent. As elders of Shrek Academy, we naturally won’t be petty.”
“Are you willing to join Shrek Academy?”
Note that Mu En said “join” here, not “come to the academy to study.”
“We are here to study. If it’s not possible, we will leave immediately and won’t cause Shrek Academy any more trouble.” This time, Mo Yan finally stepped forward and replied calmly, completely devoid of her earlier erratic behavior.
Mu En understood at this moment who the backbone of the three was: this brown-haired young girl. Truly interesting.
It seems Dugu Yan’s Martial Soul evolution is probably related to the family behind the young girl. Then, is his great-grandson’s and disciple’s Martial Soul… Never mind, no rush.
Once the bond is formed, he can slowly uncover it.
Now, his top priority was to first deceive… coax these two young girls into the academy!
“Yes, yes, yes, it was my slip of the tongue. The academy is for studying.” Mu En immediately corrected himself, “Are you two willing to come to Shrek Academy to study?”
Mo Yan: “Otherwise, why are we here? To fight you?”
Mu En:.
Thank you, handsome guys and beauties, for your votes and gifts. I’m truly grateful, thank you all!
