Furthermore, these people were exceptional talents such as Shrek's Seven Monsters, Wu Siduo, Xu Yucheng, Luo Guixing, Yang Nianxia, and Zheng Yiran. All of them were going to be imperative to Shrek Academy's future revival.
Tang Wulin suddenly said, ”Teacher Wu, I have a suggestion.”
”Oh?” Wu Zhangkong turned toward him in an intrigued manner.
Tang Wulin continued, ”Seeing as everyone is willing to give everything they have for the future of Shrek Academy, I don't think it would be in their best interest to stay here all the time.”
Wu Zhangkong's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. ”What do you mean?”
Tang Wulin replied, ”If they stay here in this isolated little bubble, all they'll experience are improvements in cultivation rank and nothing else. If we want to maximize their power in order to create a stronger foundation for the revival of Shrek Academy, they have to grow mentally as well, and they must also come into contact with the outside world; perhaps it'll even be necessary for them to go out into society in the future under all types of different ident.i.ties. With their apt.i.tude, they should quickly be able to make some substantial achievements and garner widespread support. When Shrek Academy steps into the limelight to announce its return, they'll have all reached high positions and can play major roles in the revival of the academy.”
”No,” Wu Zhangkong immediately rejected, ”That won't work. With so many people, no matter how cautious everyone is, someone is inevitably going to let something slip. Besides, don't you think it'll raise suspicions for over 200 exceptional talents to suddenly appear? They're all students of Shrek Academy, and it'll be very likely that their covers will be blown if they get released into society like this. If they get exposed, all of the powers that are against Shrek Academy will work together to hunt them down, and they'll be in grave danger.”
Tang Wulin nodded in response. ”Your concerns are valid, but continuing to cultivate exclusively in this underground sanctuary where they can't even see the light of day is too detrimental to everyone's development. Our Douluo Continent is a huge place, and a war is most likely going to commence in the near future. All of the major powers will have their attention focused on this war, so even though there are more than 200 of us, if we spread everyone across different places, it won't attract that much attention. Besides, we can disguise them and change their ident.i.ties as well.”
Wu Zhangkong's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. ”Tell me your specific plan.”
These thoughts had also formulated very quickly in Tang Wulin's mind, and he had constantly been thinking about this matter since the destruction of Shrek Academy, so he was able to quickly devise a plan.
”Firstly, I suggest that everyone must attain better survival skills, so I think we should send them to the demonic island in batches to undergo military training. Once they successfully return from the demonic island, their survival skills will undoubtedly be significantly improved, and they'll also learn a series of disguise techniques that'll make it very easy for them to integrate themselves into society. As for alternative ident.i.ties, that's even simpler to arrange; the Tang Sect may be coming under heavy oppression at the moment, but a sect that has stood at the pinnacle of the continent for 2,000 years isn't that easy to bring down.
”With the Tang Sect's a.s.sistance, fabricating new ident.i.ties for everyone won't be a difficult task. I'll contact the Tang Sect to arrange this, and after that, everyone can be released into society. They can join the army or take on certain occupations or even join some sects. Of course, some of them have to remain here, and this will be the headquarters for our Shrek revival project, as well as the temporary Shrek Academy. We can even enroll more students through the Tang Sect, and when we decide to rebuild Shrek Academy in the future, all of these people will step forward to prevent the new Shrek Academy from collapsing.”
Wu Zhangkong's eyes gradually glazed over as he listened to Tang Wulin's plan. He was quite elated at the prospect of this ambitious plan, but that elation was also tinged with a hint of bitterness.
It had been over a year since the academy had been destroyed, and during this time, he had been the strictest teacher, constantly urging the students to improve themselves with all their might. They were fighting against time every day, but he suddenly discovered that his thought process had been too dogmatic and narrow-minded. Compared to Tang Wulin, he was an old man, and this disciple of his was only becoming more and more mature. His thought processes and judgments had already exceeded that of his teacher.
