Forcing a country to bow its head with his own strength. Morin and the others were all dumbfounded by Emperor Xuan's actions at the pancake shop. At first, they were suspicious if it was some kind of hidden knife in smile or delaying tactic, but the group was safe and sound all the way until they left Xuan Jun City. No one stopped them, and no one watched them in secret.
"Is he really scared?" Morin was extremely shocked. The Xuan Jun Empire was known for being unyielding and warlike. It was unimaginable that something like being suppressed by force would happen to this country.
"Maybe." Lu Ping said. He didn't care much about this.
"Has your power completely awakened?" Morin said emotionally.
"Not really." Lu Ping clenched his fists and felt it himself, "But at least it's more reliable than before."
"It would have been better if it had been earlier." Morin sighed.
"Yes … … It would have been better if it had been earlier." Lu Ping was also slightly sad. In fact, he often thought that if he had his current strength earlier, then the Zhiling Institute Supervisory Board and Xiabong Castellan wouldn't be a problem. Everything could have been changed.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs. Lu Ping sighed slightly and didn't continue to feel sorry for himself.
Fang Yizhu, on the other hand, was looking into the distance with something on his mind.
"Just now, Emperor Xuan agreed to restore Zhenfeng College, right?" he suddenly said.
"Yes." Lu Ping nodded.
"Someone has to do this kind of thing. Can you do it?" Fang Yizhu said.
"I can." Lu Ping said.
"I'll put it another way. Can you do it?" Fang Yizhu said.
"Oh, no." Lu Ping said. He had no idea how to manage a college.
"I'll go." Fang Yizhu said.
"You'll go?" Lu Ping was a bit confused. To be honest, he didn't know Fang Yizhu's goal. He was indeed a graduate of Zhenfeng College. However, the basic consensus among the academies of the continent was that after graduating from a small academy and entering a big academy, one would often be mentioned as being from a big academy. When one reached the level of one of the Four Great Academies, one's previous experience in any academy could be ignored. From then on, one's identity would be bound to the name of the Four Great Academies.
That was why it was surprising that Lu Ping didn't think much of the Four Great Colleges, but couldn't forget about Zhenfeng College. In fact, for Lu Ping, Zhenfeng College was not just a college. It was the first and only time he could remember that he lived a peaceful life. In his mind, Zhenfeng College was his home — a place that could shelter him from the wind and rain, a place where he could live freely.
There could be many backgrounds in the academy, but there was only one family.
Then what about Fang Yizhu? It was puzzling that he cared more about Zhenfeng College than he should have. Even when the North Style Academy was facing a difficult situation, he still chose to go down the mountain to look for Lu Ping. If he cared more about Lu Ping's strength, he was the only one among the thousands of students in the North Style Academy who did so.
That was why the root was still Zhenfeng College. It was this origin that made him care more about Lu Ping. And this was not something that could be explained by nostalgia and the like.
Lu Ping looked at Fang Yizhu, clearly conveying the doubt in his eyes.
"It seems like it's time to explain to you what's going on with Zhenfeng College." Fang Yizhu said.
"Oh? You know about it? "Lu Ping's spirit was roused. Actually, he wanted to know about this a long time ago. When he was in the North Style Academy, he heard from Guo Wu Shu and Wen Gecheng that Guo Youdao had a purpose in everything he did. But after knowing that Guo Youdao didn't intend to hand everything over to Lu Ping, the two didn't say anything to him. Especially Guo Wu Shu, his attitude was quite unyielding. Lu Ping didn't think that Fang Yizhu would know, but now that he found out that Fang Yizhu had some special feelings for Zhenfeng College, he couldn't help but have this suspicion. Sure enough, Fang Yizhu really knew something.
"We have to start from the dean's true identity." Fang Yizhu said.
"I know." Lu Ping nodded.
"Hey, what true identity?" Morin shouted.
"Should we knock out this kind of unimportant person first?" Fang Yizhu suggested.
Lu Ping looked at Morin, but in the end, he still shook his head. This made Morin heave a sigh of relief. Honestly speaking, Morin was really a nosy person. He didn't have much interest in Zhenfeng College. To him, the most important thing was Lu Ping, Su Tang, and his companions who had gone through life and death with him.
"The dean is from the North Style Academy, and is the brother of Kai Yang Academician. I think he is called Kai Yang Auxiliary Star, and is the commander of the Dark Emissaries." Lu Ping explained to Morin.
"Dark Emissaries!" Morin gasped in surprise. He had obviously heard of this secret team from the North Style Academy.
Fang Yizhu smiled bitterly and pointed at Morin: "You see, everyone knows about the existence of the Dark Emissaries. This is the reason why the dean left the North Style Academy in the end."
"The Dark Emissaries are very famous, who doesn't know about them?" Morin was unconvinced.
"But this is not the original purpose of the team." Fang Yizhu said. "Now the world, even the North Style Academy treats the Dark Emissaries as an elite team carrying out a secret mission. But the real Dark Emissaries are not like that. The duty of the Dark Emissaries is not to attack, but to defend. They are to walk in the dark, to prevent the slightest mistake before it happens. "
"The Megrez Peak Pharmaceutical Storehouse was robbed, and the Dark Emissaries got involved in the investigation. But if it was the real Dark Emissaries, they should have detected it before it happened and dealt with it, making us think that the Pharmaceutical Storehouse had never been threatened like this. Sacrificing their own existence to face the evil alone, letting the world think that there is no danger in the world, I think … … this is probably the most qualified Dark Emissaries in the dean's eyes. "Fang Yizhu said.
"This … … feels a bit naive!" Morin said.
"Perhaps." Fang Yizhu said.
"Then what about Zhenfeng College?" Lu Ping said.
"Zhenfeng College is the projection of the dean's ideals. The Dark Emissaries are only a team that protects the North Style Academy. Everything they do is for the benefit of the North Style Academy. What the dean wants to establish is a team that can influence and help the world. This is another reason why he left Big Dipper, to travel all over the continent, observe people's hearts, understand the world's affairs, and finally establish Zhenfeng College. "Fang Yizhu said.
"This, don't blame me for being too frank … … Zhenfeng College's strength seems to be very far from his ideals." Morin said.
"Of course it's still very far. He didn't treat this as something that can be done overnight, and didn't even treat it as something that will definitely succeed. He only relied on his own ability to do his best, working hard to find a few people who believe in his ideals to become the Dark Emissaries in his heart. Regardless of how much, regardless of success or failure, I think that's how it is. "Fang Yizhu said.
"But when we were in Zhenfeng College, we didn't see him having this kind of principles at all?" Su Tang said, puzzled.
"Zhenfeng College is only a facade, the one who truly undertakes this ideal is the person chosen by the dean from the Academy." Fang Yizhu said.
"Of course you are the person he chose." Morin said.
"I'm just one of them." Fang Yizhu said.
"Who else?" Su Tang asked.
"There are three others." Fang Yizhu said.
"Huh?" Su Tang's heart moved, and he suddenly realized. "Zhou Ji, Lei Yuan, Li Shuihan?"
Fang Yizhu nodded. Lu Ping and Morin looked at Su Tang blankly, their faces full of doubt. How did he know?
"The four most outstanding people in Zhenfeng College." Su Tang said.
"Oh." Lu Ping suddenly understood.
These four students who were born in Zhai Feng Academy and eventually entered the Four Great Academies were existences that were talked about and envied by the students of Zhai Feng Academy. Only now did they realize that the four of them were hiding such a secret.
They were silent for a while, then Morin said, "Old Guo … … really is a bit naive."
This was the second time he said this. The others didn't say anything, but everyone had more or less the same thought. Although they were youths, they had already experienced many things. Guo Youdao's idea was very noble, very selfless. He gave his all in silence, not seeking fame or fortune, only for the betterment of the world. This kind of sentiment and personality was very noble, but also very naive.
Could this really make the world better?
Could this kind of ideal really attract people to persevere?
Zhenfeng College had been established for more than twenty years, but only four people were chosen. This seemed to explain the problem. Guo Youdao's idea might be praised, supported, and even admired, but when someone needed to bear the responsibility, only a few people would stand out.
Moreover … …
"Can I ask, what are the other three busy with now?" Morin asked another crucial point. Perhaps some youths were attracted by this kind of noble and noble idea, but when they really started to bear this kind of selfless sacrifice, how long they could persevere was also a test.
"I'm not sure, I don't have any contact with them. I only know of each other's existence." Fang Yizhu said.
"I wonder if they are in North Style Academy this time?" Lu Ping suddenly said.
"That will depend on their current strength and status. The operation to encircle and annihilate North Style is very secretive. The ones who came are all extremely powerful and are deeply trusted by the academy. If the three of them had the same status as me in their respective academies, I'm afraid they wouldn't have the qualifications to participate in this operation. "
"Oh." Lu Ping replied, but he was still a little worried. He had killed many people in that operation, would these three be among them?
"You don't have to worry about anything." Fang Yizhu seemed to know what he was thinking, "If they still insist on the idea they got from the dean, then they shouldn't participate in this operation. They should even think of ways to prevent this kind of thing from happening. If they are participating, then even if they are beaten to death, there's no need to worry about it. "
"That's why … …" Morin spread out his hands. He wasn't moved by Guo Youdao's idea at all, he only disapproved of it.
"But I believe they won't." Fang Yizhu said.
"Naive … …" Morin said for the third time.
"This naivety, do you think he doesn't know? Do you think what he is doing is to find a group of people with such naivety?"
"What kind of person do you think Guo Youdao is? He is the boss of the North Style Academy's Mizar Peak's Shadow Envoy! He is commanding surprise attacks, assassinations, silencing, and even massacring cities. When he is doing all kinds of dirty things, your bullshit Assassin Alliance is still playing with mud! "
"He has seen all the ugliness and unbearable things in this world. No one knows better than him how vicious and evil people can be. Do you think he is naive?"
"He is not naive, not at all. He has just seen too much ugliness, that's why he doesn't want people to face it, or even know about it. "
"This is not naivety, this is compassion."
