The sun was high up in the sky.
Merry Forest still maintained the tranquility of the early morning. Many of the guests who had a carefree and happy night hadn't woken up yet, but there were also some who silently left after waking up. Merry Forest was just a place to have fun, not a place to stay for long. Moreover, there were many practitioners who came here, and they always had more important things to do. There were people who occasionally came to the Merry Forest to have fun, but there were almost none who lingered here and forgot to go home.
Even people like Lu Ping and his companions, who obviously wanted to stay here for a long time, were rarely seen. Merry Forest was very noisy at night, and it wasn't a good place to rest and recuperate.
However, Su Tang's Bloodline Talent was really strong, and these details that normal people needed to pay attention to weren't important to her. She didn't even use any medicine, and her condition improved day by day.
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed, and the guests in Merry Forest had changed a few times, but the six of them were still here. Other than coming out to eat every day and occasionally taking a walk in the forest, they didn't do anything else. If it wasn't for the fact that most of the guests were from Treasure Forest, and most of the people from Treasure Forest knew Sister Jin, their presence in Merry Forest was actually quite faint.
Su Tang's injury recovery was smoother than expected. Although it couldn't be said to be completely healed, with her Bloodline Physique, she didn't need to rest like this anymore. Thus, the six's next destination was officially put on the agenda.
Where should they go? There had been a few discussions in the past five days, but most of them were idle chatter. Because it didn't matter where they went, as long as they avoided Black Army Empire, no one was particularly concerned about this problem.
But today, their next destination had to be decided, and they couldn't be so vague anymore. Where should they go? A map of the continent was spread on the table, and the six of them surrounded it.
It didn't matter where they went, but making a decision under this premise was like ordering food casually, it was the most uncomfortable. The six of them surrounded the map for a full ten minutes, and no one spoke.
"Everyone doesn't know where to go, right?" Su Tang said with a smile.
"If you have an idea, say it," Fang Yizhu hurriedly said.
Su Tang raised her hand and pointed at a location on the map.
The others stared at him as well.
"Move your hand away and let me see it clearly," Morin looked at the position of Su Tang's fingers and said as if he couldn't confirm it.
Su Tang raised his hand. Morin blinked and looked at Su Tang. "Point again."
Su Tang pointed again. Everyone was silent.
"I don't think I'm mistaken?" Morin looked around at the others.
The place that Su Tang was pointing at was the territory of the Black Army that everyone had agreed on a few days ago. Furthermore, it wasn't just within the borders of the Dark Army. It was within the borders of the Dark Army's Canyon Peak City, the original location of Zhenfeng College.
"Explain." Fang Yi Zhu finally squeezed out four words.
"If we want to rebuild Zhenfeng College, we should go back here," Su Tang said.
"That's what I want you to explain," Fang Yizhu said.
"Zhenfeng College doesn't only have one purpose," Su Tang said.
"Oh? What else? "Fang Yi Zhu's expression changed.
"It's still a college," Su Tang said.
"The four of you aren't the only ones the academy has nurtured over the past twenty years. There are many others."
"Those teachers and students of Zhenfeng College, they shouldn't be abandoned so easily," Su Tang said and looked at Lu Ping.
Lu Ping already understood what Su Tang meant.
In Fang Yi Zhu's heart, Zhenfeng College had a special meaning. It was given to him by the dean alone.
But this wasn't all of Zhenfeng College. Zhenfeng College had other students and teachers. They couldn't be treated as insignificant just because they didn't have the special meaning given to them by Fang Yi Zhu.
Guo Youdao chose the people he wanted in Zhenfeng College, but at the same time, he was seriously educating every student.
Because all of this was his blood, sweat, and tears, not just those four people.
"How are the other teachers and students?" Lu Ping asked.
"No." Su Tang shook her head.
Everyone else had left, but because she was saved by Nightingale, she was still active in the Canyon Peak District, so she knew the situation of those teachers and students who lost their college after Zhenfeng College was closed down.
There were only two colleges in the Canyon Peak District, and the Canyon Peak School was determined to not accept those who lost their college after Zhenfeng College was closed down. Although the State Supervisory Commission didn't make a clear statement. But Lu Ping and the others had caused a great disaster. Even Guo Youdao was wanted by the whole nation. No one wanted to get involved in anything related to them. It wasn't only in the Peak of the Gorge District, but also in the whole Dark Army.
Students and teachers were the same.
Although they were cultivators, they couldn't be regarded as ordinary people. But from that day on, the door to the world of cultivators seemed to have been closed to them.
"Teacher Luo Wei is in charge of inspecting the goods in the West Mountain freight yard." Su Tang said.
Luo Wei, who had the Soul of Strength, was now only relying on his "X-ray Vision" ability to work as a warehouse inspector.
"Teacher Gong Xun opened a tea shop, and the tea he makes is far better than some big teahouses, but not many people appreciate it." Su Tang said.
Gong Xun, who had the Soul of Strength, was proficient in the "Temperature Control" ability, which allowed him to accurately control the water temperature, but now he could only make tea and pour water.
"Teacher Su Yong wanted to go to the garrison army to find a job, but he was rejected. Later, he went to the mountains to open up a few acres of land, and the governor's office often pays attention to him."
Su Yong, who had the Soul of Strength, was good at the common "Strength Strengthening" ability, and he was also proficient in martial arts. Such a person didn't have the qualifications to join the army, and could only open up wastelands by himself, while being monitored by the governor's office.
Su Tang said a lot in a row, and they were all teachers and students of Zhenfeng College.
The teachers were all at least in the Soul of Strength, but they couldn't do things that matched their status and abilities. Even so, it wasn't hard for them to make a living with their own abilities, and they wouldn't be bullied.
But the students' lives were a bit worse. To be able to enter the college and become a cultivator was the hope of a family, and when this path was cut off, it was easy to imagine the pessimism and despair they fell into. Although they were different from ordinary people with their Perception realm, there was still a limit. They suffered a lot of ostracism, and their lives were very difficult. There were a few who were forced to do things they shouldn't have done, and now they even lost their lives.
"So, we should go back." Su Tang said.
Lu Ping nodded.
He remembered quite a few of the teachers and students' names. After all, that was the place he had lived for three years. In fact, most of these people weren't friendly to him, but Lu Ping had never taken it to heart. In his opinion, based on his performance in Zhenfeng College, he couldn't explain anything to them, so their various attitudes towards him were very reasonable. He didn't feel wronged or uncomfortable.
But now, he felt that Su Tang was right.
Guo Youdao wasn't the only one in the Zhai Feng Academy. It wasn't just the four students he had in mind. There were also the many teachers and students he had gathered. They shouldn't be abandoned. They should be allowed to return to the Zhai Feng Academy.
"I think this is the result the dean wants to see the most. He won't treat the others in Zhenfeng College as sacrifices for his ideals. We want everyone to be able to return to Zhenfeng College. "Su Tang said.
"What does senior brother think?" Lu Ping looked towards Fang Yizhu.
"I think, why didn't you say it earlier?" Fang Yizhu looked at Su Tang.
"Because you said to wait for me to recover before making a long-term plan," Su Tang said.
"By the way, you made a thoughtful suggestion. Very good." Fang Yizhu nodded, then looked at everyone, "Is there anyone against it?"
"I don't think it will make any difference," Jin said.
"Of course, you can say your reason," Fang Yizhu said.
"The reason is the same as before, but since you have a reason to do so …" Jin said, looking at Lu Ping and smiled, "You can only continue to get used to it."
"It's not a big problem," Lu Ping said.
"What about Ziyan?" Fang Yizhu looked at Ling Ziyan.
"I will listen to everyone," Ling Ziyan said quickly. She was obviously not prepared to express her opinion at all.
"Where is that trash?" Fang Yizhu squinted at Morin, who had slipped to the window.
"Hey, there are guests in the daytime? What a surprise. Don't tell me they're here for us? " Morin, who was looking out of the window, was already thinking about something else. Obviously, he didn't care about the issue that everyone was seriously considering. However, what he just said made Fang Yizhu let go of the thought of scolding him. He hurriedly walked to the window, "Who is coming?"
