Among the three, only Qi Lin looked at Flander with a half-smile.
"Teacher, you should know that recruiting monsters is nothing; teaching monsters is the real skill."
"However, since you said your academy only recruits monsters, then your teachers' teaching abilities must be very impressive, right?"
"I wonder what knowledge you usually teach your students?"
Hearing Qi Lin's question, Flander's expression stiffened slightly, but he quickly regained his confident look.
"That's a very good question!"
"As an enlightened academy, our Shrek Academy respects the individuality and freedom of every student, encouraging them to explore and grow independently."
"In addition, our academy's teachers will also impart experience needed for soul battles and principles for living to the children."
Listening to Flander's endless discussion, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu listened with great interest.
After Flander finished speaking, he looked at Qi Lin with a slightly smug expression.
Qi Lin still smiled and said, "Teacher, if it's as you say, respecting students' individuality and encouraging them to explore and grow independently, can I understand this as choosing to let students fend for themselves?"
"Students come to the academy to learn. If teachers let students fend for themselves, what is the meaning of students coming to the academy?"
"Furthermore, your academy doesn't seem to have a simulated cultivation environment, so there's no advantage in cultivation resources."
"If it's just to learn some soul battle experience and principles for living, then why not just find a private tutor or go to other academies?"
"After all, with Shrek Academy's recruitment standards, students who can join Shrek Academy can also be sought after by other advanced Soul Master academies."
"To put it bluntly, the teachers here aren't very useful. I feel like I could do it too."
When Flander heard this, he first frowned, but after thinking carefully, it seemed to make a little sense.
After a long while, Flander finally came back to his senses and looked at Qi Lin.
Damn it, are you here to cause trouble?
But upon hearing Qi Lin's last sentence, Flander suddenly laughed again and gave Qi Lin an exasperated look.
"Whether there's a problem with our academy is beside the point, but you little fellow are really arrogant!"
"Do you know that the lowest Soul Power level of a teacher at our Shrek Academy is Soul Emperor, and they have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice."
"Now, do you still think you can be a teacher at Shrek Academy too?"
After speaking, Flander looked at Qi Lin playfully.
However, before Qi Lin could speak, Xiao Wu said righteously, "Xiao Lin Ge said he can be a teacher at your academy, so he definitely can."
Seeing this, Flander looked at Xiao Wu speechlessly for a moment.
Little girl, are you mistaken?
Didn't you hear what I just said? The lowest Soul Power level of a teacher at our Shrek Academy is Soul Emperor.
Even if you're head over heels in love, you should use your brain before speaking, right?
A little fellow who is only twelve or thirteen years old, even if he started cultivating in the womb, it's impossible for him to reach level sixty at this age.
On the other side, Zhu Zhuqing was deep in thought.
I didn't expect this seemingly dilapidated academy to hide such formidable individuals; the weakest teacher is a Soul Emperor.
Looking at it this way, it's not without merit.
It's just...
Zhu Zhuqing's gaze couldn't help but look at Qi Lin. Although she had known him for a day, she knew very little about him, only that he was an Auxiliary Soul Master.
However, seeing Xiao Wu's trusting attitude towards him, his Soul Power level must not be low; it's highly likely he is also a Soul Grandmaster.
And facing Flander's doubt, Qi Lin smiled slightly.
"My Soul Power is indeed not as high as the teachers at your academy, but..."
"Teaching a few students is more than enough!"
After speaking, Qi Lin snapped his fingers.
In the next second, four soul rings slowly rose from his feet.
Luminous white, brilliant gold, crimson red, and emerald green!
Initially, when Flander saw Qi Lin's first soul ring, he was just indifferent, and even a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Ten-year soul ring?
Is that all?
But when he continued to look, he immediately became uneasy.
Brilliant gold, crimson red, emerald green!
Damn it, do you want to change the color of every soul ring?
Moreover, a four-ring Soul Grandmaster?
How old are you?
Not only Flander, but even Zhu Zhuqing was stunned in place at this moment.
At this time, Qi Lin said with a smile, "Let's get acquainted. My name is Qi Lin, I am twelve years old this year, and I am a level forty-eight auxiliary system Soul Grandmaster."
"Is my level not enough to teach a few students?"
A sound of swallowing echoed in Flander's throat.
At this moment, the look in his eyes as he gazed at Qi Lin was like that of a starving wild wolf seeing food.
Flander said with extreme decisiveness, "I am Flander, the Dean of Shrek Academy. Today I am fortunate to witness your heroic bearing, thus I have decided to sincerely invite you to be a teacher at my Shrek Academy. I implore you to accept."
Flander's expression was particularly serious, and his attitude was extremely sincere.
Although Qi Lin was only twelve years old and his Soul Power level was slightly lower than that of the other teachers in the academy.
But Flander firmly believed that if he could recruit Qi Lin, it would definitely be beneficial to Shrek Academy without any harm.
A twelve-year-old level forty-eight auxiliary system Soul Master!
What kind of concept is this?
Let's just say, due to the fact that Auxiliary Soul Masters cultivate slower than ordinary Soul Masters, there has never been a Title Douluo of the auxiliary system heard of on the continent today.
And Qi Lin!
With the talent he is currently displaying, as long as he doesn't die prematurely in the future, he will definitely become an auxiliary system Title Douluo.
Perhaps even a Super Douluo above level ninety-five!
Unless Flander was blind, he could see that the young man before him was a genius whose talent far surpassed Oscar.
As a cunning businessman, how could he not build a relationship with this future auxiliary system Title Douluo in advance?
Flander wasn't doing it for anything else, just for that bit of connection.
His actions immediately stunned Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing nearby.
It was hard for her to imagine that Flander, a powerhouse whose strength was at least above Soul Emperor, would treat Qi Lin with such serious respect.
However, upon second thought, based on Qi Lin's talent, he deserved such treatment from Flander.
This was the potential of a Title, absolutely certain!
If her fiancé wasn't Dai Mubai, but him...
Recalling the frivolous-looking Dai Mubai she had seen not long ago, and comparing him to the current Qi Lin, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but sigh softly and cast a slightly envious look at Xiao Wu.
Beside them, Qi Lin was slightly taken aback after hearing Flander's invitation.
But then, he actually started to ponder it in his mind.
Recalling the past two years of guiding Xiao Wu's cultivation, that feeling of nurturing was much more comfortable than being a student.
Especially when he saw that even the clumsy Xiao Wu was taught by him, the sense of accomplishment was completely full.
So, it's not impossible for him to join Shrek Academy first, then follow Shrek to the Imperial Capital to take a look, and then decide whether to stay or leave.
At this moment, Flander, who was nearby, saw the look of interest on Qi Lin's face and immediately struck while the iron was hot, saying, "Young friend, how have you considered it?"
Qi Lin said with a smile, "Dean Flander, since you are so sincerely inviting me, I am naturally willing to become a teacher at Shrek Academy."
"But let's agree in advance, my salary requirements are very high!"
Saying this, Qi Lin didn't forget to rub his fingers together.
As soon as Flander saw Qi Lin preparing to raise the price, a feeling of suffocation immediately surged into his heart.
This was all money; even losing one gold soul coin would be enough to make his heart ache.
But in order to get Qi Lin to become a teacher at Shrek Academy, Flander decided to go all out.
You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child!
