Chapter 8 Immortal Herb, Dugu Bo, Enrollment Day
"You two pick a scenic spot and establish the Heavenly Dragon Gang. I'm out of money, you'll have to figure that out yourselves."
Lan Minghua was dirt poor; he was already grateful he hadn't asked Jianglong Fuhu for money.
"Yes, Sect Leader. We will definitely establish the Heavenly Dragon Gang in the shortest time possible and await your return." Jianglong Fuhu replied respectfully.
"Go, go, but don't be too ostentatious. Try to make the Heavenly Dragon Gang appear as a reclusive sect."
Jianglong Fuhu was puzzled, not understanding why they needed to make the Heavenly Dragon Gang a reclusive sect.
After all, the Heavenly Dragon Gang was previously the number one gang in Xuanwu Kingdom.
However, they would absolutely obey Lan Minghua's orders.
They would leave Shrek Academy immediately to find a suitable place to build the Heavenly Dragon Gang.
Lan Minghua had a reason for telling Jianglong Fuhu not to make a fuss; currently, the Heavenly Dragon Gang consisted of only the three of them.
If the Heavenly Dragon Gang made a grand entrance like this, wouldn't it lose its prestige?
Therefore, without the strength to challenge the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, and the Spirit Hall, Lan Minghua wouldn't have allowed the Heavenly Dragon Gang to appear so quickly.
That night, he sipped his wine, watching Oscar run wildly around Shrek Academy.
Relying on his strong willpower, Oscar actually completed twenty laps with weights.
However, after finishing, he fainted due to the intense exercise.
Lan Minghua appeared a split second before he collapsed, grabbing his already soaked collar.
"Working so hard, it seems you really want to prove yourself. Don't worry, as my disciple, you'll only be stronger than in the original timeline."
He then took Oscar back to the house Zhao Wuji had prepared for him, using his soul power (internal energy) to cleanse and refresh his body, guaranteeing he'd be full of energy when he woke up.
Lan Minghua then took out a bottle in the living room and drank his fill of alcohol.
The next day, the Shrek Academy students woke up early; today was the day for admissions.
The Shrek Academy teachers gathered together to discuss.
"As per our agreement, Old Li will be in charge of vetting this year's admissions teachers. Is that alright with everyone?"
As the vice-dean, Zhao Wuji held the highest position in Flander's absence.
Li Yusong nodded, no problem. They took turns; it was his turn this year.
Zhao Wuji wasn't indecisive, and after making the arrangements, he planned to leave.
Suddenly, Shao Xin, who had been silent, spoke up: "Old Zhao, you said Oscar has taken the new teacher as his apprentice, is that true?"
Shao Xin was a level 71 Soul Saint, his martial soul being Candy Bean.
He had wanted to take Oscar as his disciple, but felt he lacked the strength to protect him, so he hadn't acted.
"Old Shao, you…"
Li Yusong, as Shao Xin's old friend, knew what he was thinking.
Shao Xin shook his head and said softly, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just want to know if that Hua Zai can protect Oscar."
Zhao Wuji turned around and said, "Don't worry, Flander personally tested his strength; he's probably stronger than me."
"Is that so? Then I'm relieved."
Shao Xin smiled with relief, happy that Oscar had found a good teacher.
He treated Oscar like his own son, but unfortunately, he was also a support-type Soul Master and couldn't support Oscar.
Shao Xin accepted the current situation.
Li Yusong broke the somewhat somber atmosphere, saying, "Even though Little Oscar has taken someone else as his master, he's still the child we watched grow up. Does he think he'll forget about us old folks just because he's taken someone else as his master?" "
We all know what kind of person Little Oscar is. He's not the kind of person who forgets us old folks just because he has a master."
Compared to Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, Shao Xin and the other teachers preferred Oscar.
The former two were troublemakers and arrogant, incomparable to Oscar.
"Alright, it's high noon, time to open for enrollment. Hopefully, we can recruit a few little monsters this year, otherwise we won't have as many teachers as students."
Zhao Wuji joked before leaving, and the other teachers went about their business.
In the boys' dormitory, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun finally woke up.
Seeing that Oscar wasn't in the dormitory, Ma Hongjun scoffed, "Heh, he's quite patient. But it won't be long before he begs to come back, right, Boss Dai?"
"Fatty, don't say things like that. Oscar's just been blinded for a while; he'll change his mind soon enough." Although Dai Mubai didn't look down on Oscar like Ma Hongjun did, he also believed Oscar couldn't do without them.
They exchanged a glance, both seeing a tacit understanding in each other's eyes.
However, neither noticed the dark circles under their eyes.
While they were still sleeping, the one who had looked down on Oscar was already up training.
Shrek Academy, though dilapidated, still had a considerable area.
Lan Minghua had taken Oscar to a relatively secluded spot early on to train him and strengthen his physique.
"998, 999, 1000, finally finished!"
Oscar completed 1000 pull-ups with 250 pounds of weight on two level stones.
Before he could rest, Lan Minghua's voice rang out.
"Get up quickly and keep running. Only by constantly pushing your limits can you achieve breakthroughs. With me here, you won't die from training."
He wasn't like Yu Xiaogang; he made his students bear the consequences of any problems.
With him overseeing things, Oscar wouldn't die from training.
Even though he was physically and mentally exhausted, Oscar gritted his teeth and got up to continue training.
After what happened last night, he completely trusted Lan Minghua. He
immediately got up and started running, training himself to the point of exhaustion.
His hard work paid off; his physical strength visibly increased, and his blood and qi became increasingly abundant.
However, he still hadn't trained enough, and soon he fainted again.
Lan Minghua helped him regulate his meridians and dispel his fatigue, fulfilling his responsibility as a teacher.
After settling Oscar in, Lan Minghua felt the progress was still too slow.
At this rate, it would probably take Oscar several months, or even years, to master the Vajra Body Technique.
"Are there any ways to quickly improve physical strength without any side effects? Right, immortal herbs! How could I forget about immortal herbs?"
Lan Minghua slapped his forehead, realizing he'd forgotten about them.
Without the help of immortal herbs, how many of the Shrek Seven Devils could become gods?
Fortunately, among the immortal herbs was the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, which, when consumed, circulates qi throughout the limbs and opens the eight meridians, enabling the cultivation of the Vajra Body Technique. It
was practically the perfect match for cultivating the Vajra Body Technique.
The other immortal herbs were also quite good and could be used for his future disciples.
As a transmigrator, Lan Minghua naturally knew where the immortal herb was and who possessed it.
Sunset Forest, Dugu Bo, of course.
Although Dugu Bo was a Title Douluo, Lan Minghua was still confident he could take the immortal herb from him.
Just then, a commotion arose outside Shrek Academy.
Lan Minghua sensed Li Yusong's Soul Emperor-level Soul Power.
At the academy gate, Li Yusong displayed his Soul Emperor strength, and the parents dared not cause any more trouble.
Shrek Academy had stood for so many years, doing so many things.
They hadn't even bothered to investigate before coming over; they would suffer the consequences.
Flander was extremely cunning, using this to make money.
Even if they complained to Emperor Xue Ye, they couldn't rely on the law to punish Shrek.
Lan Minghua was very curious whether Tang San, without the Dragon Beard Needle, could break through Zhao Wuji's defense.
After all, before joining Shrek, he had taken the hair crystal from Flander.
Moreover, almost all of the future Shrek Seven Devils were present, allowing him to see their system talent ratings at once.
And one of them was also Lan Minghua's target.
