Chapter 23: Zhou Yi's Past and Ideals in the White World Bring Tears to the Eyes of Soul Masters in the Black World.
Beyond the sky, the dark world was in complete uproar.
At this moment, all the Soul Masters' innermost thoughts boiled down to two words—"Holy crap!"
If the previous resource disparities were still within everyone's comprehension, then the educational philosophy and personal charm displayed by Zhou Yi in this new world are simply a game-changer!
Zhou Yi, from the underworld, is a notorious "perverted old hag"—strict, mean, and even somewhat psychologically twisted.
Every student who has taken her class is trembling with fear, as if walking on thin ice.
How many students have had their futures ruined by her ruthless expulsion for the smallest things?
But look at Zhou Yi from Bai Shijie!
Not only is she beautiful and pleasing to the eye, but she also has a gentle personality, like a kind older sister next door.
We do not put unnecessary pressure on students, respect everyone's choices, and protect students' nature to the greatest extent while emphasizing moral education.
"This isn't a teacher, this is an angel!"
"Waaaaah, if only I had met a teacher like Mr. Zhou back then, I wouldn't have dropped out of school..."
"So thoughtful, so incredibly thoughtful! Just as much Zhou Yi is hated in the dark world, she's just as beloved in the light world!"
Praises poured in like a tidal wave, and countless students from the dark world gazed at their goddess teacher in the sky, their eyes filled with longing.
At the same time, a huge question arose in everyone's mind:
"What exactly did Xuanzi from the White World do to Zhou Yi in the White World? How could he transform someone who might have had personality flaws into such a perfect and wonderful teacher?"
...
Shrek Academy, inside the classroom and office.
At this moment, Zhou Yi, the woman in the dark world, had a face so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip water.
Listening to the whispers and gossips of her colleagues, and looking at her own radiant reflection in the sky, the flames of jealousy burned fiercely within her, almost consuming her reason.
"Hmph! Just trying to attract attention!"
Zhou Yi slammed her hand on the table, her voice sharp and piercing, "What kind of happy education is this? What kind of respect for choice? It's utter nonsense!"
"The world of Soul Masters is a dog-eat-dog world. How can one become a talent without going through brutal competition and training?"
"Her greenhouse-style education is simply misleading! It will only produce a bunch of useless people!"
Zhou Yi tried to justify herself and maintain her crumbling dignity by using her "law of the jungle" approach.
However, at that moment, a sarcastic voice echoed softly:
"Misleading students?"
Teacher Mu Jin, who had always been at odds with Zhou Yi, was now standing with her arms crossed, looking at her with a mocking expression. "Zhou Yi, have you forgotten something?"
"That Zhou Yi is a level 92 Title Douluo! And you? You're just a six-ring Soul Emperor, right?"
"If what a Title Douluo says is misleading, then what you, a Soul Emperor who isn't even a Soul Saint, say is the truth?"
Mu Jin's words were like a resounding slap across Zhou Yi's face.
"you--"
Zhou Yi's face flushed instantly, her lips trembled, but she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal for a long time.
Yes, facts speak louder than words.
Their teaching philosophy is advanced, and their own strength is overwhelming.
Faced with absolute power, all her theories seemed so pale and powerless.
The entire office fell silent instantly, with only Zhou Yi's rapid and awkward breathing remaining.
...
Meanwhile, the footage inside the dome continued to play.
In the classroom, Zhou Yi didn't rush to open her textbook and begin the lesson.
Looking at the slightly reserved children below the stage, she smiled gently: "Don't be so nervous. Now that we're in the same class, we're family. We'll be studying and living together for the next year and even longer."
"Since we're family, let's get to know each other properly first."
Zhou Yi stepped down from the podium, pulled up a chair, and sat down in front of the students, showing absolutely no airs.
"To be fair, let me first give a more detailed self-introduction and tell you my story."
Hearing that the teacher was going to tell a story, the children immediately became interested, their ears perking up and their eyes sparkling.
A hint of reminiscence flashed in Zhou Yi's eyes as she slowly spoke:
"Actually, I was born into a single-parent family. I grew up without a father, and my mother suffered a lot to raise me. This resulted in my personality being... very bad when I was young."
At this point, Zhou Yi chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Back then, I was sensitive, suspicious, insecure yet arrogant. I was always harsh towards others, afraid that they would look down on me."
"Moreover, I am extremely selfish. In order to get what I want and to climb the social ladder, I often do things that are excessive and even hurt the people around me."
Hearing this, the children in the audience looked surprised. They found it hard to reconcile the gentle and intellectual teacher before them with the " mean and selfish" person she had described.
["but..."]
Zhou Yi's tone shifted, her eyes filled with deep gratitude and warmth, "When I was twelve years old, I, like everyone else, was fortunate enough to be selected by Shrek Academy."
"Even after arriving here, I was still covered in thorns. But my teacher didn't give up on me."
"She didn't scold me or fire me because of my bad temper. Instead, she gave me a level of tolerance and warmth I had never experienced before."
"She patiently taught me principles of life, corrected my values, and sternly pointed out my mistakes, but also guided me when I was lost."
"Under her influence, I learned how to love, how to trust, and how to take responsibility."
Zhou Yi gently pushed up her glasses, her eyes slightly moist. "Shrek Academy changed me, turning me from an annoying 'bad kid' into who I am today. I really like the changed me."
"That feeling of being bathed in sunlight, that feeling of being filled with love and confidence, it's so wonderful."
"Therefore, after graduation, I chose to stay at the university to teach without hesitation."
Zhou Yi raised her head, looking at the children before her with a firm yet gentle gaze:
"Because I want to be like my teacher and pass on this warmth."
"I want to use my experience to tell everyone that no matter what you were like in the past, no matter what your shortcomings are, as long as you come to Shrek Academy, as long as you are willing to change, this is your home for a new beginning."
"I hope to help more children not only possess great strength, but also a well-rounded personality, so that they can achieve a better life."
...
The image gradually faded, but Zhou Yi's sincere words lingered in the sky for a long time.
At this moment, all the Soul Masters in the Dark World were moved to tears.
"Waaaaah... This is so touching..."
Countless sentimental female Soul Masters have already cried their eyes out.
"So this is the charm of Shrek in the White World? It's not just about teaching, it's about nurturing people!"
"Redemption! This is true redemption!"
Some people lamented, "If Zhou Yi from that world hadn't been changed, perhaps she would have become like Zhou Yi in our world? Extreme and gloomy..."
"Yes, it is precisely because she has experienced the process of being warmed and healed that she understands better how to warm others."
"The Elder Xuan and Shrek from that world have truly done immeasurable good deeds!"
