Quite a distance away from the stone circle, Lu Ping and Su Tang suddenly began to discuss.
"Who was that strange guy just now?" Lu Ping said.
"I don't know, Third Young Master or something?" Su Tang was also confused.
Shujihira and the others who were walking beside them were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.
"You two don't know who he is?" Shujihira was the first to come back to his senses. Of course, Liang Zheng didn't publicly introduce himself from the beginning to the end. He only mentioned his name when talking to You Xin that he was Liang Zheng, that Liang Zheng.
Although his voice wasn't loud, everyone present was a practitioner. Other than those whose souls were too weak, as long as they wanted to hear it, they could all hear it.
Therefore, everyone knew who he was. There was no need for further introductions. That was what everyone thought.
However, there were still people who didn't know. Was Zhenfeng College really so remote?
"He's Liang Zheng, Wei Qin Liang Gu, one of the four major Liang family's descendants. He's ranked third, so that guy calls him Third Young Master." Wen Yan introduced Liang Zheng.
"What are you introducing me for? I know! "Siffin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Because Wen Yan was close to him, she basically said it to him.
"Ah?" Wen Yan was stunned. She thought that Zhenfeng College was remote, so even the famous Liang family's Third Young Master hadn't heard of him. In the end, Siffin knew, but Lu Ping and Su Tang didn't. Who was the special one here?
"They don't know, probably because they don't care." Siffin explained for Lu Ping and Su Tang. This was the only explanation he could think of. This was because even in Zhenfeng College, there were many topics related to the continent's powerhouses and noble clans. Lu Ping might not have had much contact with it, but if even Su Tang did not know about it, then it could only mean that he did not care about it at all and did not take it to heart. Naturally, he would forget about it very quickly.
Then what do they care about?
This question circled around in everyone's mind, but they didn't ask it in the end.
"Do you know who he is now?" Wen Yan said.
Lu Ping and Su Tang nodded.
"What do you think?" Wen Yan asked. Lu Ping and Su Tang ignored Liang Zheng's attempts to rope them in, which was quite a pity to her. Although Wen Yan grew up in a wealthy family, she lacked status. Prestigious families like the four great families were exactly what they envied. Wen Yan was not as enthusiastic as her father, Wen Tai. But after growing up in such a family environment, she knew what she should do for the sake of the family. If it was her, she would definitely not resist the four great families' support.
"Nothing much," Lu Ping and Su Tang said. Clearly, their rejection of Liang Zheng had nothing to do with the issue of status. Even if they knew Liang Zheng's identity at that time, nothing would have changed.
"If the third young master of the Liang family knew that Lu Ping and Su Tang did not figure out his identity, how would he feel?" Shi Ao suddenly said.
What would he feel? Everyone subconsciously thought about it, but found that they could not think of anything.
That Liang Zheng. He would have emotions. Whether it was surprise, shock, confusion, or anticipation, all these emotions would be revealed at the appropriate time, but they were very minute and would be quickly adjusted. There was no doubt that he was being strongly controlled. In this way, whether the slight hint of emotion that was revealed was real or deliberate. It was hard to fathom. This person's mood could not be fathom at all.
A question made everyone fall into silence. But in front of them appeared a familiar figure, and there was a familiar smell — the smell of alcohol.
"Dean."
"Teacher Chu Min."
Guo Youdao and Chu Min were coming from the front.
"Why are you here? Where's the Soul Choosing Assembly? "Guo Youdao was surprised.
"The preliminary test has ended." Siffin reported the situation, of course, including Liang Zheng's matter.
"Too much, they actually poached our school's people." Guo Youdao was filled with emotion after listening. Just a few days ago, he wanted to vomit blood because of Lu Ping and the others' lack of ambition. But looking at it now. Fortunately, they had no ambition. Otherwise, 99% of them would have given up the Soul Choosing Assembly and followed Liang Zheng. With the appreciation of the four great families, the ranking of the Soul Choosing Assembly was not important.
In the end, Guo Youdao looked at Shujihira and the other two.
"Why are the three of you here?" He asked.
"We are no longer Amaterasu College's students." Shujihira said. This was not a positive answer, but it could explain everything. An answer that made people not need to ask any more questions.
"That's just right, come to our Zhenfeng College!" Guo Youdao said in a very reasonable tone.
"This …" Shujihira and the other two looked at each other. They did not expect that Lu Ping and Su Tang had just been roped in, and the three of them had become the target again. And they had to admit that Guo Youdao's tone was very good. Compared to Liang Zheng, he was much more confident. Although they did not know where his confidence came from.
The four of them were Amaterasu College's fourth-year students who were about to graduate. Even if they were not expelled, the Soul Choosing Assembly was basically their last activity as students. They were about to embark on a new journey. It seemed unreasonable to run to the remote Zhenfeng College, right?
"I think it's not necessary, we are about to graduate and leave the college." Shujihira, Shi Ao, and Wen Yan exchanged glances and politely refused Guo Youdao's "good intention".
"That's not the point. The point is that you don't have the identity of the college's students. It's a problem for you to participate in the Soul Choosing Assembly, right? I, as the dean of Zhenfeng College, now give you the identity of Zhenfeng College's students. You can take this opportunity to participate in the Soul Choosing Assembly and then graduate from Zhenfeng College. "Guo Youdao said.
The three of them were stunned.
In theory, Guo Youdao's statement was very reasonable. Although the three of them were not rejected by the Soul Choosing Assembly, their identity was still a big problem. If people with ulterior motives wanted to make an issue of it, they had no room to explain.
But …
No matter how they looked at it, this old man didn't look like he was going to help them solve their problems. Instead, he wanted to take the opportunity to create some results for Zhenfeng College. His intention was too obvious. The three of them were reduced to this situation because they wanted to help the few people from Zhenfeng College, although they didn't hold a grudge against it. But this dean of Zhenfeng College was also so bold that he wanted to take the opportunity to use them. This made them a little depressed.
"I think, it's not necessary." This time, Shujihira didn't see the intention of Shi Ao and Wen Yan and refused. However, his words only represented his personal attitude.
"Although I'm no longer a student of Amaterasu College, in the Soul Choosing Assembly, when others point at me, I still hope to hear the name 'Amaterasu College' from their mouth, and not some other college." Shujihira said.
"Me too." Shi Ao looked at his little friend with a face full of admiration and followed.
"Same." Wen Yan said.
"Thank you, President Guo, for your kindness. The three of us will leave first." Shujihira said.
"See you at the assembly." After that, the three of them said goodbye to Lu Ping and the others and left.
"Goodbye." Lu Ping and the others responded. After watching them leave, they looked at their dean.
"What a pity …" Guo Youdao sighed, "The three little devils will definitely be schemed against."
"Dean, you …" Siffin wanted to say something, but he held it back. He, who abided by the rules, still couldn't point out the dean's impropriety.
But Lu Ping didn't care. Since Siffin didn't say anything, he immediately continued.
"The dean is too scheming. He wants to help people, but he also wants to take advantage of them. The thoughts are written all over his face." Lu Ping said.
"Yes, yes." Su Tang nodded repeatedly. Siffin's actions weren't obvious, but his emotions clearly agreed with Lu Ping.
"What do you guys know!" Guo Youdao didn't care about their attitude.
"I'm going to inspect the other venues and see the quality of the students from the various academies this year." After saying that, he actually ignored them and walked away.
"Dean, I'm sorry." Lu Ping said.
Siffin wanted to say something, but he held it back.
"Actually, you guys are wrong." Chu Min, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.
"Huh?" They looked at Chu Min.
"This isn't being scheming, this is being stupid." Chu Min said.
"Huh?" They were stunned for a moment, but quickly understood what Chu Min meant. This kind of help, in fact, could be easily handled, but Guo Youdao made things difficult. The reason was that he didn't carefully cover up some of the additional things, and even very honestly expressed his expectations for these added values.
This honesty was indeed a little stupid.
