When the students saw Zuo Jun's appearance, they knew that they couldn't afford to offend this old man. They immediately bowed and said, "We have seen Grandmaster."
The Dean nodded, then he looked at Zuo Jun and said, "Alright, arrange for the three of them to stay first. You stay and chat with me." When Zuo Jun saw the Dean's expression, his heart couldn't help but thump. But he still nodded and had the three students leave first.
After the three students left, Zuo Jun closed the gate of the courtyard. He then lowered his head and stood in front of the dean. He looked like a primary school student who was waiting to be taught a lesson. It was hard to tell that he was a master of Sky Dance Realm.
The Dean looked at Zuo Jun's appearance and sighed, "Zuo Jun, there were many students in the class. You weren't the most outstanding, but you weren't the worst either. But do you know why I recommended you to stay in the school?"
The Wen Ji Continent was ruled by the Eight Great Academies. The Eight Great Academies were the kings of this place. If a scholar was to work in the school after graduation, it was equivalent to directly becoming a worker. Even if they had good grades, they could directly become an official. Therefore, the Wen Ji Continent was one of the Eight Great Academies. Every year, there would be a certain number of places to stay in the school. However, the number of these places was very small, so the competition was very fierce.
The reason why Zuo Jun was able to stay in the Wen Ji Academy was because of the Dean's recommendation. One must know that Zuo Jun wasn't the most outstanding student in the elite class. His grades were just above average, there was nothing special about him. Because of this, many people were puzzled when the Dean recommended Zuo Jun to stay in the school. Even Zuo Jun didn't know why. Now that he heard the Dean's question, he immediately shook his head and said, "I'll have to ask Mister to clear my doubts."
The dean looked at him and said in a deep voice, "When you were in the elite class, although you weren't the most outstanding, you were the calmest in the class. This is related to your family. You weren't like the others in the elite class who had a good family background. Your family members were just ordinary people. You relied on hard work to enter the elite class. Although you weren't the most outstanding in the elite class, I know that you were the most hardworking. It was because of this that I recommended you to stay in the school. Because of your calm personality, you can steadily develop after staying in the school. You won't be too arrogant. This way, you will have a bright future."
At this point, the dean paused for a moment and looked at Zuo Jun. Then he said in a deep voice, "But I didn't expect you to become like this in just a few years. Look at your performance just now, are you still the Zuo Jun I knew? Have you lost your mind because of the power you have? Do you think that just because you stayed in school, you're a superior person? Do you think that just because you stayed in school, you have power in your hands and you can do whatever you want? Do you think that the school sent you to Tideview City for no reason? They know that I'm here, so they sent you here. They want me to beat you up. "
Zuo Jun broke out in cold sweat. He didn't think about this before. But now that he heard the Dean, he recalled what happened this time and immediately knew that the Dean was right.
When he was sent to Tideview City this time, the higher-ups told him to observe the situation. He was only here to observe. As for how to deal with Zhao Hai's matter, he would listen to the Dean.
At that time, he didn't take these words to heart. In his opinion, he came to Tideview City as a high-ranking official. Naturally, he had the authority to deal with Zhao Hai's matter. Moreover, a high-ranking official wasn't the highest authority in Tideview City, so the Dean naturally had to listen to him.
But now that he heard the Dean's words, Zuo Jun understood that the higher-ups sent him here to see the Dean and have him beat him up. If he doesn't listen, then he would no longer have a position in the school. He would only be able to hold an idle position in the school.
The Dean looked at Zuo Jun's cold sweat and sighed, then he said, "Although I haven't been in the headquarters these past few years, I still know what happened there. In the beginning, you did a good job, but in the past few years, especially after you became a Sky Dance Expert, you became too obsessed with power. You wanted to meddle in everything, which caused some people to dislike you. But now that you've reached the Sky Dance Realm, the academy can't directly deal with you. Moreover, I was the one who recommended you, so the academy gave you a chance to come here and let me talk to you. Zuo Jun, I've already said what I wanted to say, it's up to you whether you want to listen or not. Although you're a Sky Dance Expert, it's not a big deal for the academy to give up on a Sky Dance Expert. Don't think too highly of yourself, understand?"
While listening to the Dean's words, Zuo Jun also thought about what he had done in the past few years. His face was sweating even more. After the Dean finished speaking, Zuo Jun gave the Dean a salute and said, "Yes, thank you Teacher for your advice. This student knows that he was wrong. Teacher can rest assured that this student will change. I won't let Teacher down, nor will I lose face for Teacher."
The Dean nodded, then he looked at Zuo Jun and said, "You don't need to worry about Zhao Hai's matter. Right, in two days, the academy will be erecting a monument in the Ancient Battlefield. If you have time, you can go and take a look."
Zuo Jun smiled bitterly, then he nodded and said, "Yes, Teacher. I'll go."
The Dean was an old man, so when he saw Zuo Jun's expression, he knew that there was something else going on. He immediately said, "Is there something else? Tell me. "
Zuo Jun didn't dare to say anything, so he honestly told the Dean about the restaurant. After hearing Zuo Jun's words, the Dean shook his head and sighed, "You … Forget it, you don't need to worry. Zhao Hai is a person who is easy to talk to. I'll have someone talk to him, he won't make things difficult for you. But remember, don't target him." Zuo Jun nodded quickly.
After that, the two chatted for a while. The Dean asked about the situation in the Main Court. Zuo Jun was very grateful to the Dean. This was because if it weren't for the Dean, he wouldn't have been able to stay in the Main Court and achieve what he has today.
Moreover, in the Wen Ji Continent, the relationship between teacher and student was very important. Respect the Teacher, Teacher for a Day, Father for a Lifetime. This idea was deeply ingrained in the bones of the people in the Wen Ji Continent. This was because the Academy was the ruler of the continent. Naturally, the Academy had to respect the Teacher. Otherwise, the Academy wouldn't be able to survive.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they chatted for a long time. In the end, the Dean invited Zuo Jun for a meal before arranging a room for Zuo Jun.
Zhao Hai and the others also received the news that Zuo Jun and the Dean were old friends. They knew that the Dean wouldn't make things difficult for them, so they didn't want to cause trouble for Zuo Jun.
In fact, these words were mainly said to Zhao Hai. Dong Chuan and the others weren't qualified to cause trouble for Zuo Jun. However, Zhao Hai was different. Zhao Hai's strength was there for everyone to see. Moreover, when Zhao Hai killed the people from the Chess Hall, the Dean knew that Zhao Hai wasn't a good person. If Zhao Hai really wanted to cause trouble for Zuo Jun, then Zuo Jun would be in danger.
The Dean had been teaching all his life, so he was very good at reading people. He was very clear that people like Zhao Hai had a good temper. You can joke with him, but once you become his enemy, then you would have to face his fiercest attacks. Enemies were always ruthless.
Zhao Hai didn't care too much about this news. In Zhao Hai's opinion, although Zuo Jun was very hateful, he was still a member of the Scholarly Hall. At most, Zhao Hai would teach Zuo Jun a lesson, but he wouldn't kill him. This was because if he really killed Zuo Jun, then he would offend the Scholarly Hall. If he offended the two great academies in the Wen Ji Continent in just a few months, then he wouldn't be able to stay in the continent in the future.
Moreover, if he really killed all of his enemies, then the people of the Wen Ji Continent wouldn't be able to tolerate him. They would only regard him as a madman. Because of this, Zhao Hai needed to restrain himself when necessary.
After Zhao Hai returned to his courtyard, he rested for a day. The next day, the Academy sent people to take away the 36 Stone Steles and directly brought them to the Ancient Battlefield. Naturally, Zhao Hai followed them all the way.
When Zuo Jun heard about this matter, he couldn't help but be shocked. When he met Zhao Hai in the restaurant yesterday, he knew that Zhao Hai and the others were celebrating their victory in Ancient Tide City. However, he only heard a few words, he didn't know the ins and outs of the matter. But now that he saw the 36 steles, he finally understood what was going on. Zhao Hai and the others were all stunned. Zhao Hai and the others were all stunned.
Zuo Jun also knew about the Ancient Battlefield, but he didn't expect Zhao Hai and the others to be able to recreate the Battle of Ancient Tide City. This was too shocking.
Zuo Jun carefully looked at the Stone Steles carved by Zhao Hai. He looked at the pictures, the text, and the data behind the Stone Steles. Zuo Jun couldn't help but be shocked.
Zuo Jun was 20 years older than Dong Chuan and the others. Naturally, he couldn't have been there in time for the Battle of Ancient Tide City. Because of this, Zuo Jun and Dong Chuan had the same attitude towards the Battle of Ancient Tide City. In the beginning, they just treated it as a story. Although they were excited by the story, it wasn't as intense as this time. Looking at the data and the tragic scenes, Zuo Jun was stunned. He finally understood why Dong Chuan and the others looked at him with hatred yesterday.
Zuo Jun smiled bitterly, his heart was filled with regret. At this time, he saw Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai was standing there looking at the Stone Steles with a complicated expression on his face.
Zuo Jun thought for a moment before he walked over to Zhao Hai's side. He cupped his fist and said, "Mister Zhao Hai, I came to apologize to you. Yesterday's matter was my fault. I didn't know that you were celebrating in the name of this place. I was wrong, please forgive me!"
