On the long bridge made of coral wood, Zhu Minglang circled the White Sky Street, then returned to the Dragon Tamer High School.
The main reason was that the Innate Fiend Dragon was too eye-catching. Traveling in this dangerous jianghu, it was always good to have a trump card that no one knew about.
After returning to his residence, Zhu Minglang had nothing else to do, so he walked along the shallow beach and took a tour of the scenery of the highest school in Mancheng.
The Dragon Tamer High School was very large. It was like a small island submerged in shallow water. The scenery and climate could be said to be perfect. The picturesque hills and the exquisite buildings combined together were magnificent and full of artistic aura.
From dusk to night, the stars had already filled the navy blue sky and sunk below the calm surface of the sea. The most enchanting lights of Mancheng were unwilling to bow down to the color of the sea of stars. They displayed their most brilliant light along the continuous coastline.
Zhu Minglang stepped into a forest of water trees. The trees here were extremely neatly trimmed. Not a single branch was out of place.
It seemed that Duan Changqing's house wasn't far away. It faced a small bay and the gorgeous and luxurious scenery of Mancheng.
After taking a few more steps, Zhu Minglang saw a graceful figure sitting quietly under a tree. She was gazing at Mancheng in a daze. Zhu Minglang's footsteps weren't light, but she still didn't notice.
Zhu Minglang walked closer. Looking at the side of her face that was beautifully illuminated by the night sky, he hesitated for a moment. Zhu Minglang felt that it was best not to disturb this quiet woman's thoughts. Everyone had their own little space to themselves. It would be rude to barge in so easily.
Zhu Minglang was just about to leave from another path when the woman called out to him.
"Zhu Minglang?"
"Teacher Duan Lan," Zhu Minglang turned around. Just like when he was at Li Chuan Academy, he was refined and courteous.
Duan Lan seemed to want to say something, but she didn't know where to start.
"It's all too sudden." Zhu Minglang also understood the worries in Duan Lan's heart and said gently.
"Yes." Duan Lan nodded.
The sudden intrusion of a massive world had shattered the peace of Lichuan, even shattering the Lichuan Dragon Tamer Academy that was least likely to be shaken.
She was used to peace, and was also used to doing things within her power for those suffering in peace, but she had never thought that she would also be dragged into suffering and tempering.
Although his father, Duan Changqing, was the one who had to deal with it most of the time, it was still difficult for him to accept that his father, whom he respected, had to bow and scrape to the people of the High Court.
"The academy is father's true love. He's worked so hard for it, but I don't know what I can do for him …" Duan Lan said in a low voice.
"Ms. Duan Lan, don't worry," Zhu Minglang said.
"Zhu Minglang, I heard that you have a close relationship with Her Highness?" Duan Lan asked.
"This …" Zhu Minglang felt that this question was weird.
Why did she want to know about his relationship with Li Yunzi?
Did she have that kind of feelings for him?
It was easy for people to speak their mind when they were worried.
On second thought, he and Ms. Duan Lan had gone through thick and thin together, so they were able to trust each other. Even though it was rare for them to be together after the incident, did they establish some kind of relationship?
What should he do?
Ms. Duan Lan was indeed a good person. She had a great figure, a calm and dignified temperament, and was gentle and patient when she spoke. She had given him a lot of help. His heart ached when he thought about how he would have to ruthlessly reject her.
"Can you tell me more about her?" Duan Lan asked gently.
"Huh?" Zhu Minglang did not know how to react.
"I already feel helpless and powerless when it comes to a little academy. I don't know how to protect it, but she was able to protect all the cities and lands in Lichuan on her own. I feel like I'm really useless in comparison. I want to hear her story. How did she deal with an army of an entire country without batting an eyelid? "Duan Lan said seriously.
Duan Lan was born with a gentle temperament. She was gentle, gentle, and kind, but it felt like her temperament was of no help to her current situation.
She wanted to be strong and strong, so she could at least face all the trials bravely instead of worrying on the side and letting her father shoulder everything.
"I see," Zhu Minglang let out a sigh of relief.
He thought …
Alas, to think that he was still racking his brains to think of a gentle way to refuse her without hurting her delicate heart and making her not have any hope for him.
Luckily, it wasn't what he thought.
But why did he feel a little disappointed?
She was such a bitch.
Zhu Minglang happened to have nothing else to do. He could tell that Lichuan Dragon Tamer Academy was Duan Lan's true love. She was willing to change herself to protect it.
After slowly recounting some of his experiences, Duan Lan also asked about Zhu Minglang's trip to the Imperial Capital to obtain the right to oversee the academy.
Zhu Minglang's description of himself was much simpler. He gave all the credit to Nan Lingsha.
He had to leave himself a way out. After all, he had to tell Duan Lan about how powerful he was in the Imperial Capital. It would be too embarrassing if he had to face such a small academy test in a few days.
… …
… …
Seven days had passed.
Duan Changqing, Bai Yishu, and Duan Lan had already given the students some training.
Their Master Dragons had at least advanced by one rank. This way, they would have a little more confidence.
Zhu Minglang and the others walked into the large arena. This was a very spacious and bright arena for battles. There was a system in the Dragon Tamer Academy that Lichuan Academy didn't have, and that was the Season Duel.
Every season, the academy would give out extra rewards to the students who won multiple times in the Season Duel.
Students were encouraged to duel with each other in a formal and fair setting. The higher the ranking, the more rewards they would receive. This would be calculated every season.
At this moment, the battle between Li Chuan Academy and Man City High School was scheduled to take place in this Season Arena. The surrounding stone platforms could hold up to ten thousand spectators, and the center of the arena was set up in a mountainous environment. There were rocks, sand, trees, small peaks, and cracks in the ground …
The battle environment had to be the best.
This was also the case in the Imperial Capital.
People revered the strong. The strong were respected.
It seemed that the majority of the students of the Dragon Tamer Academy had a natural sense of superiority. When they heard that a nobody academy wanted to be recognized by the highest academy, they all came. They all sat on the surrounding stone platforms, waiting to see how these students from a nobody academy would make a fool of themselves.
"Isn't this a test? Why … why are there so many people?" Li Shaoying immediately panicked when she saw this scene.
