When he had arrived in class in the morning, he had actually heard some gossip about Old Antique breaking up with his girlfriend.
Everyone knew who Old Antique was; back when he had led everyone to the spirit sword exchange meet at No. 59 High School, he had fallen in love with Director Xie, the school's director of teaching.
This news had spread very quickly. It was said that Old Antique and Director Xie had just broken up yesterday, and Dopey Guo had already heard it firsthand. But this time, it wasn't one of Dopey Guo's uncles who had told him, but that "delinquent senior" He Bufeng, who was determined to study hard at No. 59 High School.
As No. 60 High School's gossip expert, Dopey Guo didn't just have an "uncle" as a resource; he was also a famous social butterfly outside the school.
Basically, it didn't take long for anyone who had met Dopey Guo to become familiar with each other.
Then, Dopey Guo would turn them into "intelligence traffickers" and pull them into his personal gossip group.
It was human nature to be nosy, and Master of Dopey's strength lay in the fact that not only did he like to gossip, but he also had the ability to drag other people along with him … this was the scariest thing!
A lot of people in class didn't know Old Antique's real identity, and felt that this was just his first love, so it had to be a huge blow to him. Even Lotus Sun, who had personally witnessed Old Antique kill a Golden Core killer with a piece of chalk at the start of the semester, had only thought that Old Antique wasn't ordinary.
But his identity as Gorgeous Itinerant …
In Grade One, Class Three, Wang Ling was the only one who knew.
Back when Old Antique had been in his prime, he had been a famous little fresh meat in the assassin circle, and who knew how many people had designs on him … but Wang Ling felt that he was still young when it came to relationships, so it wasn't good for him to say too much. Perhaps Old Antique had been right to end his relationship. After all, given Gorgeous Itinerant's identity, Director Xie was just a weak woman.
When Old Antique came to class, he found that it was strangely quiet and no one was talking.
Everyone in class thought that Old Antique would be in a very low mood today, but who knew that he would be as if nothing had happened. As usual, he stood on the dais with a bag of spicy strips and a wide smile on his face.
"Students, let's get ready for class. Everyone, flip to Section 5: Modern History. Today, we'll talk about the Gate Between Worlds." Old Antique rubbed his hands together. He hadn't brought a book or prepared a PowerPoint; he had already committed these things to memory. Outstanding teachers could basically teach without books when they were completely familiar with the teaching materials.
Everyone, "Stare …"
"…"
Old Antique: "Students, if you have something to say, say it nicely, don't stare at me, I'm very shy!"
Everyone continued to stare …
Old Antique wasn't a fool. Combined with the uncharacteristic silence in the classroom when he had entered, he guessed that the matter of him and Director Xie's breakup at No. 59 High School had most likely come to light. After all, the students of both schools knew that they had been together back then. Now that they were separated, this gossip would naturally spread …
In fact, Old Antique had long since anticipated this, but the only thing he hadn't expected was that this gossip would spread a little too quickly.
He had broken up with Xie Huilan yesterday afternoon, but it seemed like the whole world knew this morning … no wonder even the old man who sold egg pancakes at the school gate had looked at him strangely this morning. Furthermore, the old man had specially cracked an extra egg in his pancake and added a piece of tenderloin covered in coffee-colored sweet sauce …
Old Antique now finally understood the meaning of this.
It turned out that this meant …
Tenderloin (chicken flying) and egg breaking?
Old Antique took out a spicy strip and put it in his mouth. "I believe that all of you already know, that's right … I broke up!" There was no point in hiding it. In any case, since everyone already knew, Old Antique felt that he might as well say it out loud and then go to class in peace.
"Why did you break up?" Dopey Guo already couldn't hold back his desire to gossip.
"Work reasons, as well as personal reasons … but don't worry, we broke up peacefully. This breakup won't affect the friendship between No. 59 High School and No. 60 High School. " Speaking up to this point, Old Antique couldn't help spreading his hands. "Actually, it's still because I'm a little playful … a girlfriend or something isn't very suitable for me. I probably won't have one in this lifetime, and can only rely on my left and right hands to make a living … "
Everyone: "…"
Old Antique raised his eyebrows. This topic was already over, and he clearly didn't want to continue.
"Cough, cough … next, let's officially start class!"
Returning to the topic of class, Old Antique said with a serious expression, "I believe that everyone has already come into contact with information on the Gate Between Worlds from various sources. Because the Gate Between Worlds descended irregularly in the past, it caused our country a lot of losses and disasters. But currently, we already have fairly sophisticated monitoring equipment that can detect fluctuations in the Gate's descent in advance. Our country is already leading the world in terms of prevention and monitoring measures in this area. "
"The Gate Between Worlds doesn't just descend in our country?" At that moment, Little Peanut couldn't help asking.
"Of course." Old Antique nodded. "The coordinates of the Gate Between Worlds' descent are random. There are records of it appearing not only in our country, but also abroad. Although it's rarely descended, it's not like it doesn't happen. As everyone knows, the Gate Between Worlds connects to the demon world, and there are demon beasts, demon kings, and even demon god lords who rule over several major domains of the demon race. But who knows that above demon gods, there actually exists an absolute ruler of the demon race … "
"Absolute ruler of the demon race?" Everyone was shocked.
Many of them, including Wang Ling, had heard a lot about the Gate Between Worlds when they were very young. To everyone's knowledge, demon gods were already the rulers of the demon world. A demon god ruled over a demon territory, and their rank was equivalent to that of a head of state in the human cultivation world. This was the first time they had heard of the concept of absolute ruler.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of this concept before. After all, you'll only come into contact with historical knowledge after you enter university, and it's actually still a little far off at this stage. I'll just say a little … this demon ruler is also called Demon Saint. But Demon Saint has never appeared in any battle between the human race and the demon world until now. "
"So … does Demon Saint really exist?" Someone started to question.
"No, Demon Saint does indeed exist. We extracted this information from the memories of demon gods who died in battle. From the memories of demon gods, we can see that Demon Saint is extremely powerful … but until now, we don't know why Demon Saint chose not to take action during the war, and instead stayed hidden. "
Old Antique looked a little nostalgic as he said, "Currently, our country actually has very limited information on Demon Saint. But there are three things that we can be sure of …
"First: Demon Saint does exist.
"Second: The position of Demon Saint can be inherited, and it's hereditary. Currently, Demon Saint has already been succeeded to the second generation.
"Third: From the memories of demon gods, we can see that the current Demon Saint's true identity is a merman. We also call him: second generation merman … "
