Chapter 156: There Must Be an Explanation Today!

Flender smiled slightly.

The mood of the teachers at Shrek Academy improved significantly.

After all, being respected is far more comfortable than being looked down upon.

Although the environment here is not as good as that of the Tiandou Royal Academy, it has its own advantages.

Led by Yin Shu, three teachers from the Lanba Academy walked ahead, exiting the pointed-roof building and heading down a small path towards the back of the academy.

Soon, they entered the forest on the outskirts of the main campus area.

Dai Mubai, walking beside them, asked in confusion:

"Doesn't your principal live in the campus area?"

Yin Shu nodded and replied:

"The principal usually isn't at the academy; she prefers peace and quiet. She lives alone in the forest."

"The daily affairs of the academy are handled by the teachers; only major matters require the principal's approval."

When mentioning the principal, a genuine respect appeared in Yin Shu's eyes, completely heartfelt.

"I see."

After Dai Mubai finished his inquiry, Yu Xiaogang, standing nearby, felt an inexplicable sense of unease in his heart.

After walking for about ten minutes, as they moved through the fresh air of the forest, suddenly, a faint song drifted from ahead.

The singing was melodious and haunting, filled with sorrow and longing, making one feel a pang in their heart.

The melody was beautifully cyclical, incredibly soft:

"At night, it's hard to sleep, what can numb me?

Too many emotions, how can I face them?

My heart is too chaotic, afraid of love's betrayal.

I want to cry, like a lost child.

A lost child."

The song faded quietly, and Flender and the Master, who were at the front, had already stopped in their tracks when the singing began.

At this moment, Flender's expression looked somewhat strange, while Yu Xiaogang wore a face of anger and embarrassment.

He stared intently at Flender and turned to leave.

However, Flender grabbed him by the collar, holding him firmly!

Flender said in a low voice:

"Xiaogang, how long do you plan to avoid this? You've already come; can you really bear not to see her?"

"Flender, did you already know she was here? Lanba Academy, Lanba Academy, Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus, I should have thought of that."

Flender made a helpless gesture.

"How could I know she was here? It's just a coincidence; let's go."

A struggle flickered in Yu Xiaogang's eyes; after all, what he had done back then was indeed a bit inappropriate!

Continuing forward for several hundred meters, the trees thinned out, and a particularly sturdy tree stood with a sign hanging from it, inscribed with a line of words.

"Academy Restricted Area, No Entry Without Permission."

Crossing past this large tree, the scenery before them suddenly changed.

It was a small lake, with a diameter of only about fifty meters, and a stream about three meters wide quietly fed water from the other side of the woods, then flowed back.

This place, which should be considered a pond, always maintained a flow of fresh water.

Beside the pond stood a simple thatched hut, built from wooden planks and straw, perfectly blending into the surrounding environment.

Around the hut was a fence, within which various flowers bloomed, competing to open, colorful and beautiful.

Amidst the flowers stood a woman, holding a watering can, tending to the blossoms.

Perhaps hearing the footsteps, her gaze unconsciously turned towards the direction of the Shrek Academy group.

She seemed to frown slightly, disturbed by the tranquility of the place.

However, when her gaze passed over the three Soul Masters from Lanba Academy leading the way and landed on Flender and the Master behind them, her entire body instantly stiffened. She loosened her grip, and the watering can fell to the ground with a thud.

As the water spilled out, she had completely forgotten about it.

She appeared to be a beautiful woman in her thirties, dressed in a simple blue cloth dress, yet her elegance was undeniable. Her hair was tied up with a cloth, and her somewhat pale face featured exquisite and captivating features, with eyes that, though currently vacant, still held a spark.

Beneath her robe, her figure was undeniably mature and voluptuous, far beyond what an ordinary girl could achieve.

Yin Shu and the other three Soul Masters from Lanba Academy, having guessed from the earlier exchange between Flender and Yu Xiaogang that these two must know the principal, still approached respectfully.

Yin Shu quickly stepped forward to the fence and said respectfully to the beautiful woman behind it:

"Principal, we have a few new applicants for Soul Master, among whom six possess Soul Power exceeding level sixty. We cannot make the decision and have come to seek your judgment."

In a flash, the beautiful woman was outside the fence; no one from Shrek saw how she emerged from within, and the teachers were all taken aback.

The saying "from the small, one can see the great" was evident in her simple action, revealing her immense strength.

Upon seeing Yu Xiaogang and Flender, her body involuntarily trembled a few times.

Tears welled uncontrollably in her eyes, and she murmured:

"Xiaogang."

Flender threw Yu Xiaogang to the ground, and as soon as Yu Xiaogang freed himself from the restraint, he tried to run away.

But he had barely taken a few steps before Flender stopped him, saying sternly:

"There must be an explanation today!"

After saying this, he turned to Liu Erlong.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang looked around and suddenly thought of something, so he shouted loudly:

"Yun Feng, you quickly tell Flender how he has been controlling me!"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's shout, Yun Feng found it somewhat amusing.

But on the surface, he still pretended to be puzzled.

"Principal, what is going on here?"

Seeing Yun Feng interject, Flender immediately recalled Yun Feng's mischievous nature from the past, so his tone softened a bit, but he still shook his head.

"Yun Feng, just be a witness and don't get involved in anything else!"

In response, Yun Feng could only feign a helpless expression, looking at Yu Xiaogang, indicating that he couldn't help.

Yu Xiaogang had completely lost his spirit, feeling like a dead dog, and even found Liu Erlong, who was still sobbing, a bit noisy!

Seeing this, Flender said in a low voice:

"Xiaogang, how long do you plan to avoid this? You've already come, and you're still like this. Whatever you have to say about your feelings for Erlong, say it all now, or else don't waste her time!"

Liu Erlong also trembled as she stood up from the ground, quickly moving closer.

But before she could reach Yu Xiaogang, she was startled by his cold gaze.

"Flender, you went through so much trouble to bring me here, didn't you just want me to be with Erlong?"

"What are you pretending for?"

Flender felt a twinge of embarrassment and anger at be

ing exposed in front of so many juniors.

"So what if I like Erlong!"

"I've liked her for over a decade; you have delayed her and me for over a decade!"

"Is it wrong for me to want a conclusion?"
