Suddenly, Lu Zhan Tian crawled towards Reeves like a dog. "President, save me! Save me! I don't want to die! I'm carrying out your orders! Don't abandon me!"
Everyone stared dumbfoundedly at Reeves. Reeves calmly shrugged his shoulders. "Vice-president Lu Zhan Tian, I have no enmity with the members of the Prodigy Society. Please don't accuse them with your personal actions, and don't smear Holy Judgement's name. Let the truth speak for itself!"
"Hehe, Reeves, you're burning the bridge after crossing the river. If it wasn't for you, how would I know their route? How would I know the arrangements for this group training? In the entire academy, only you and Scarlet knew about it. If it wasn't you, then did Scarlet tell me?"
Lu Zhan Tian revealed a sinister side. If Reeves wanted to abandon him, then he would die with him!
A trace of killing intent flashed through Reeves' eyes, but he knew he couldn't take action. He moved to the side and avoided Lu Zhan Tian. "I request the academy to investigate. If anyone is related to this matter, they will be punished!"
"Haha, good. Reeves, do you think you can escape responsibility for your words? I also have a trick up my sleeve. I still have the words you told me back then. Cough, cough. Do you think you're the only smart one?"
Reeves remained expressionless. "Oh, is that so? I really want to see what you can fabricate."
The reversal of this group training was too great. Grace brought everyone back to the academy while the inspection team conducted an investigation.
This matter caused Grace to be deeply disappointed. Tianjing Academy was already very weak, yet such a thing had happened.
Two days passed. Lu Zhan Tian, Adams, and the lookout Terrence were convicted. Their soul seas were crippled and they were banished a thousand miles away.
No one would have thought that Reeves would actually be implicated in this matter. Although the recording didn't prove that Reeves had the intention to instigate them, there were still hints in the recording. Considering Reeves' background, it definitely wasn't sufficient evidence to convict him. However, he couldn't stay in Tianjing Academy any longer. Reeves was very straightforward and left Tianjing Academy on the night of his release.
The only words Reeves left behind were: "You will regret this."
The huge changes this time had indeed dealt a heavy blow to Tianjing Academy. Furthermore, with the involvement of the investigation squad, this matter could not be covered up no matter what. The already delicate situation had caused Tianjing to become even more passive. Headmaster Greene was also under great pressure. This time, he had suffered a slight blow to his bones.
Regardless of what was said, Reeves' strength was there for all to see, and he could be considered as the cornerstone of Tianjing Academy. Now that he had left, the strength of the academy had been reduced by half. During this period of time, Headmaster Greene had become slightly anxious. However, there was nothing he could do, as there were still a few students who were seriously injured. The selection of the CHF had been handed over to Scarlet. Scarlet was now the captain of the squadron, and the members of the squadron were chosen by her.
The CHF Tianjing Academy's squadron was officially established with Scarlet as their captain. Grace brought the Markis brothers back to the frontlines. All in all, Grace felt a little apologetic towards her alma mater. She hadn't been of much help and had even caused the entire squadron to fall apart. However, Greene was very open-minded. The sooner the problem was discovered, the sooner the better. If he allowed it to develop, who knew what kind of chaos would occur in the future.
However, Greene didn't have the strength to deal with this squadron. As a headmaster, he still actively contacted some of the higher ranked academies for an exchange. However … those slightly better ranked academies simply weren't interested in Tianjing Academy.
A clash between the strong was an exchange, while a clash between the strong and the weak was to nurture the children. During this period of time, the various great academies were looking for experts to train their line-up. Who would have the time to train with trash like Tianjing?
It was already three days later when Wang Zhong woke up. The external injuries on his body had mostly recovered, but his right hand was still in a miserable state. It would take at least half a month for it to return to normal. During these three days, it was Scarlet who had been taking care of him. Wang Zhong had already regained consciousness, but his body was still unable to move. From Scarlet's words, he understood the current situation. Emily was already fine. She had only suffered light injuries, and after some simple treatment, she was already full of vigor and vitality. However, Barran's injuries were slightly more serious. The injuries on his body could be easily treated, but the damage to his Soul Sea wasn't something that could be treated with the current medical conditions.
It was said that the five great families possessed secret healing methods, but … no one would care about a student from an academy.
Basically, the doctors had already sentenced Barran to death. Without his Soul Sea, his lifespan would be greatly reduced. It would even be difficult for him to live as an ordinary person.
After the first group training, Scarlet, Milami, and the others had already become familiar with Barran. Seeing Barran lying on the sickbed without any signs of life, Scarlet's expression grew dim. Wang Zhong had also escaped death. Scarlet had never imagined that Lu Zhan Tian and the others would go to such an extent. An academy student would become the most reliable comrade-in-arms after graduation. Normally, fighting and even flipping tables was a small matter, but to think that they would actually stab each other in the back.
Seeing Wang Zhong wake up, Scarlet finally revealed a smile. "You've finally woken up. I'll go call Ma Dong and the others!"
Wang Zhong shook his head. "Bring me to see Barran first."
"How are your injuries?" Scarlet was still a little worried.
Wang Zhong smiled faintly. "Other than the bones in my right hand needing a period of time to recover, there aren't any major problems."
Scarlet supported Wang Zhong to Barran's sickroom. Barran was quietly lying there, looking at the ceiling with a calm expression. He didn't seem particularly depressed, but this only made him more frightening.
A soldier wasn't afraid of death, but the destruction of his Soul Sea was truly killing him, especially at his age.
Wang Zhong walked in. Upon seeing Wang Zhong, Barran's eyes lit up. "Senior. “
Wang Zhong sized up Barran. "It seems that our luck isn't bad. We're actually still alive to meet. I thought that the next time we meet would be underground."
Barran nodded. "If senior hadn't lured away that Rank 5 mutated beast, we would have long since died."
"No, it's because of our hard work. Furthermore, our luck isn't bad. There will be more battles in the future!"
Barran's eyes dimmed for a moment before recovering. "Senior, I'm afraid that I won't be able to fight alongside you guys in the future. The possibility of my Soul Sea recovering isn't high, but it's fine. The president has said that the academy will give me a sum of money. They'll also preserve my status as a citizen of Tianjing. I won't have to worry about living for the rest of my life."
Wang Zhong wasn't an idiot. The Federation had regulations in this area. In a situation like the academy's, there was only a minimum standard of living. It was extremely difficult, so Wang Zhong was afraid that Ma Dong would have to fork out the money.
Wang Zhong's Soul Power slowly enveloped Barran. Barran's physical condition was still alright, but his Soul Sea had indeed been severely damaged. It had exceeded his limits, and the stability of Barran's Soul Sea wasn't that high. This kind of breakthrough was also known as a limit breaking breakthrough.
"Senior, don't worry. I still have the strength …" said Barran with a smile.
"Barran, do you trust me?" Wang Zhong suddenly asked.
