Zhou Xiaoxiao said, "I sent someone to the Bartender Guild to make a copy of the Famous Wine Catalog, and then searched the chamber of commerce's wine collection. Among the ten famous wines, besides the Origin of Life and the Vast Sea Fine Nectar that you already have, I found four more. The remaining four are a bit more troublesome. According to the Famous Wine Catalog, there are six of these ten famous wines in the Radiant Five Elements Continent. The two you have and the four I have are just enough. The other four are in the Dark Five Elements Continent, and I can't do anything about them for now. However, after five years, the Heavenly Red Lotus Flame will disappear, and the Holy War will be unavoidable. At that time, I'll find a way to go to the Dark Five Elements Continent to find them for you."
"Chairman Zhou, thank you." Ji Dong spoke from the bottom of his heart, his gaze clearly becoming a bit more intimate as he looked at Fatty. Even though Fatty's promise back then was only verbal, he had taken it to heart, even going so far as to personally make a trip to Blazing Academy to tell him this news. But Ji Dong firmly remembered this favor.
Fatty said, "Don't thank me. From a businessman's point of view, this is a transaction. I've already reported your situation to the chamber of commerce's council, and after a discussion, more than eighty percent of the council members agreed to my proposal. As long as you can pass the examination of the council, you will be confirmed as a candidate for the chamber of commerce's president, and will receive all aspects of support for you."
"Wait a moment, what president candidate? Ji Dong, what's going on?" Zhurong asked doubtfully.
Zhou Xiaoxiao said, "Zhurong, I've already spoken to Brother Yin Chaoyang about this matter. Brother said that Ji Dong will make the decision himself, so you don't need to get involved. Don't worry, I won't harm your precious disciple. Actually, my main target for the assessment was your other disciple, Fury, but after discovering Ji Dong, I changed my mind. You know the rules of our Chamber of Commerce very well. Although you have to bear more responsibilities, as the president of the Chamber of Commerce, your main role is to be a deterrent. You don't have to do much actual work, and you can still receive the full support of the Chamber of Commerce. This is not a bad thing.
Zhu Rong frowned. Although Zhou Xiaoxiao was a Supreme-Being, he was not afraid of anything. However, Zhou Xiaoxiao brought up Yin Yang Chaoyang, which made him speechless. He would never question his teacher's decision.
Zhou Xiaoxiao's face revealed a sly expression. Hyōhime said, "Kid, when are you going to get the wine with me?"
Ji Dong replied without hesitation, "Of course, anytime."
Zhou Xiaoxiao replied, "That depends on your time. When you're ready, come to Golden City to find me. I'll be waiting for you there. However, I have to remind you that taking these four bottles of wine means that you've officially accepted me as my successor. These four bottles of wine are also rare treasures. If you want to take them away, you'll have to pass the examination of the Chamber of Commerce's council. Otherwise, even if I'm the president, I have no right to give away the Chamber's treasures."
Ji Dong said, "I understand, I'll go there. But I'm afraid I can't do it in the near future. I have to go to the Central City first, then the Holy Evil Island. When I'm done with these things, I'll go to Golden City to find you." For the sake of Raging Flames' wish, he had to go through any kind of test no matter what. Four of the Ten Great Famous Wines. Although not all of them, with these four bottles of wine, he would be able to work hard for the Sacred War between the two continents in the next five years. He had already thought it through very clearly. He had given himself ten years. In these ten years to fulfill Raging Flames' wish, he must complete everything and do his best. After ten years, when he fulfilled Raging Flames' wish, it would be time for him to find Raging Flames.
Zhou Xiaoxiao said happily, "Now that everything is clear, I'll leave now. I still have some other things to deal with. Ji Dong, you have to be mentally prepared. Although you're very strong, the examination of the Chamber of Commerce's council is very strange. It's not limited to combat ability. When I took the examination, I almost lost a layer of skin. It was because there was no other candidate and the president was not in good health, so I barely passed."
Ji Dong said blandly, "I'm determined to get the top ten wines."
Zhou Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "That's good. I'll go back and wait for you. After the Chamber of Commerce officially confirms you as my successor, I'll be able to relax. I won't need to be forced to cultivate by those old guys every day. If I have time, I'd rather spend it with the beauties. I don't know how many beauties are waiting for me."
Looking at him, Ji Dong couldn't help but feel speechless. Did it mean that as the president of the Chamber of Commerce, he had to be greedy and lustful?
Zhou Xiaoxiao left. Without Zhu Rong asking, Ji Dong told him how he met Zhou Xiaoxiao.
After listening to Ji Dong, Zhu Rong couldn't help but sigh, "Ji Dong, you've shouldered enough responsibilities."
Ji Dong said, "I'm sorry, teacher, I have to become Zhou Xiaoxiao's successor, because I'm determined to get the top ten wines. This was the Flaming Bar's last wish before she died. I want to offer a famous wine to her in heaven every year."
Zhu Rong's whole body shook, "You're willing to become the president of the Chamber of Commerce just to offer a sacrifice to the Flaming Bar?" Looking at Ji Dong's somewhat indifferent expression, Zhu Rong couldn't help but feel a wave of pain in his heart. This child had really endured too much. His affection for the Flaming Bar was actually so deep.
"Teacher, please don't stop me. I've already made up my mind."
Zhu Rong sighed, "Just like what your grandmaster said, do what you want to do. Teacher believes you'll have your own judgment. Go back and prepare, the day after tomorrow you should set off for Central Plains City. This time, you have two tasks you must complete. One is to let the Heavenly Stem Academy know the strength of our Blazing Academy, the other is to bring Zhu Yan back. As for the matter of the Five Elements Cycle Formation, it's up to you. "
Zhu Rong attached great importance to this exchange trip to the Heavenly Stem Academy. Back then, he didn't leave the Heavenly Stem Academy only because of Ji Dong. Even though Yin Zhaorong's position among the top ten directors was extraordinary, Zhu Rong was only an ordinary director. There, he simply couldn't fulfill his ambitions. That's why he chose to leave. He wanted to prove himself to the Heavenly Stem Academy. Even without the full support of the empires, he could still establish a higher education institution like the Heavenly Stem Academy.
To Zhu Rong, the thing he was most proud of in his life was having two good disciples. He naturally hoped that this time, Ji Dong would lead the Blazing Academy students to the Heavenly Stem Academy for the exchange, to display Blazing Academy's elegance. At least, he had to let the directors of the Heavenly Stem Academy know that the Blazing Academy was approaching the Heavenly Stem Academy's strength step by step.
Therefore, not only did Zhu Rong personally choose armors for the students in Ji Dong's class, he even specially prepared thirty-two horses for them, in preparation for this trip. Otherwise, even if they had enough crystal nuclei, finding thirty sets of magic weapons and light armors in such a short period of time wouldn't be an easy matter. Of course, if they could bring Zhu Yan back, then the situation would be greatly different. Among the five empires, the Southern Fire Empire with fire magicians was the most proficient in forging. Zhu Yan was also a top-notch figure in the magic weapon forging world. With him overseeing things, it could be said that Blazing Academy would directly rise to a higher level. Even though it wouldn't be able to contend with the Heavenly Stem Academy as equals, at least their comprehensive strength would be substantially close.
Two days later, early in the morning, thirty-two riders left Blazing City at lightning speed, heading straight for the Central Earth Empire.
After a long separation of nearly a year, Ji Dong was finally returning to the Central Plains.
Ji Dong was riding at the front of the group on a maroon horse. Although he was sitting on the back of a horse, his back was still as straight as a pencil. Every student was imitating him, maintaining the same posture with a stern look in their eyes.
On the official road, apart from the crisp sound of hooves, there was unexpectedly no other sound. The students didn't even whisper to each other, each and every one of them with grave and stern expressions.
The hell-like training was definitely extremely effective. This had been proved by Ji Dong when he was cultivating in the Flaming Bar. Regarding the training of these students, Ji Dong was even stricter than what he had done in the Flaming Bar. He had even ordered his students not to talk for seven days. Only by talking less and doing more could they be more focused. This was Ji Dong's idea.
By now, the class composed of these thirty students was named as the Sun and Moon Hall by Zhu Rong himself, which seemed to be able to compete with the Limit Yang Hall of the Heavenly Stem Academy.
Among these thirty students, twelve of them had already broken through the three-crown level, and seven more were about to break through the three-crown level. Even the lowest level among them had reached level twenty-seven. According to Ji Dong's estimation, in three to four months at most, all of these students would be able to break through the three-crown level.
Three-crown level wasn't a big deal in the world of Devil, because the actual fighting power of an individual was still relatively weak. However, what Ji Dong wanted was the comprehensive fighting power. He was very confident in his students.
The Heavenly Stem Academy wasn't just something that Zhu Rong couldn't let go of. To Ji Dong, the Heavenly Stem Academy also had a special meaning. Back then, he was forced to leave the Heavenly Stem Academy and the Yin-Yang Hall. Even though he had taken part in the two battles between the holy and the evil, he still held a grudge against the Heavenly Stem Academy. If the Heavenly Stem Academy was truly fair, he wouldn't need to leave.
Of course, the current Ji Dong was no longer the same as before. Even if he didn't retaliate and stood in front of the Heavenly Stem Academy's Dean, Ji Mingxuan, she wouldn't dare to touch a single hair on his head.
Ji Dong had a lot of identities, and every single one of them was enough to shock people on the continent. The law enforcement elder of the Devil Guild, the grandson of the Prince Equivalent, the disciple of the God of Victory and the God of Taiyi, the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy disciple of the holy
The horses galloped forward at a speed of four hundred kilometers per day. If it wasn't for the fact that the horses couldn't bear it, they would have been able to move even faster. People's rest was all thanks to the horses.
The Sun Moon Hall had just been established, and Ji Dong clearly knew how much Zhu Rong valued the first batch of students. Therefore, when he was teaching this batch of students, besides the power, he had also specially emphasized on the quality of their will. Without a strong will, no matter how powerful they were, they wouldn't be able to make it big. Even Chen Sixuan admired Ji Dong's teaching method very much.
The distance from the Blazing Fire City to the central city was much longer than when Ji Dong had traveled from the Blazing Fire City to the central city. The Blazing Fire City was very close to the border between the two empires, while the Blazing Fire City was located in the center of the Southern Fire Empire. Therefore, even though they were moving at a high speed, they still spent six whole days to reach the border between the two empires.
After a simple resupply, Ji Dong ordered the army to no longer move at a high speed. They slowed down their speed to two hundred kilometers per day and continued moving forward. He had to adjust the condition of the students. He couldn't let them reach the central city in a fatigued state.
The thirty-two cavalrymen were still very eye-catching on the official road, especially in this situation where half of them were male and half were male and half were female. Not long after they entered the Central Earth Empire, a large group of people vaguely blocked their path.
It wasn't a merchant group, but an army. What made Ji Dong even more surprised was that this army was actually made up of heavy armored cavalry. In the battle order of the empires, although heavy armored cavalry wasn't at the top of the army, it was still one of the most expensive army types. It was only second to some troops that were equipped with magic masters. A heavy armored cavalry legion would need twice the number of people to supply their logistics. And this army that appeared in front of everyone right now, through visual estimation, there were at least three thousand of them.
Three thousand heavy armored cavalry galloped forward like an earthquake. From afar, the rumbling sounds could already be heard. This level of mobilization of an army could be considered as a large scale. Could it be that they were going to carry out some mission?
Ji Dong waved his hand and said, "Move to the side of the road."
For most of the Sun Moon Hall's disciples, it was also their first time seeing such a large army. All of them revealed looks of excitement in their eyes. Looking at the steel torrent rapidly approaching them, they all felt a majestic and majestic aura.
The person at the very front was wearing a thick bright yellow full-body armor. He wasn't riding a tall and sturdy horse, but a huge earthen dragon. Wasn't this the earth-shattering dragon that was specially equipped for the diamond corps? This person was also dressed like a member of the diamond corps. It was just that he was wearing a helmet, so his appearance couldn't be seen.
Seeing that the huge earth-shattering dragon was right in front of them, the rider on the back of the earth-shattering dragon suddenly pulled on the reins and shouted, "Stop …"
Immediately, the sound of horses neighing and metal clanging rang out at the same time. It wasn't easy to stop the steel torrent of the heavy armored cavalry legion. Usually, there would be a process of deceleration, but these three thousand heavy armored cavalry had forcibly stopped. From this, it could be seen how elite they were.
