Pa!
Ba Li Yan held the kettle seriously. The kettle he was about to pour water for Qiansu slipped from his fingertips and fell on his feet. As the hot water boiled out, the hot air quickly condensed into a large mist under the extremely cold weather of the Bitter Cold Land. Ba Li Yan was completely unaware of all this. His mouth was wide open as he panted heavily. Looking at the Black Tortoise Academy's Principal, he suddenly thought of something.
The Seven Constellations of Black Tortoise were named after the seven constellations. From then on, they would give up their former names. This made it easier for people to ignore their past. However, no one was born to inherit the name of the seven constellations. Each of the seven constellations had a past.
At this moment, Ba Li Yan looked at Qiansu. She wasn't young, but she was far from old. A name and face that had been forgotten for at least twenty years gradually emerged in his mind.
"Dean Ba, do you not remember me?" Qiansu asked again.
"Li … Li …" Ba Li Yan used all his cultivation, but still couldn't control his tongue. He couldn't speak.
"That's right. My former name was Li Shuihan." Qiansu said.
It really was her!
At this point, Ba Li Yan completely remembered and no longer had any doubts.
In the joint examination conducted by Canyon Peak Academy and Zhenfeng College, Canyon Peak Academy had always had the upper hand. However, the Zhaifeng Academy would always produce a top-notch talent every few days, causing the Gorge Peak Academy to lose the upper hand. Because the number one spot that represented the best was always taken by a few.
This became one of the few highlights of Zhenfeng College. These four talents had always been hung on the wall of the lobby of Zhenfeng College's Zhai Feng Building.
It was said that these four eventually entered the Four Great Academies. Ba Li Yan was skeptical about this. To be honest, he was even skeptical about Guo Youdao's so-called Black Tortoise Academy background. After all, they had been in contact for so many years. Ba Li Yan had never experienced the top-notch connections of the Four Great Circles before, even though he was from the Black Tortoise Sect.
However, at this moment, Ba Li Yan finally understood that just because he didn't feel it didn't mean that others didn't. Zhenfeng College actually cultivated a dean of the Four Great Academies. What kind of achievement was this? What kind of glory was that? This was a thousand times better than Guo Youdao's so-called Black Tortoise Academy background, but he had never used this to promote himself?
It wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't, right? Ba Li Yan thought.
The Black Tortoise Dean was high and mighty. From the day he became Qian Qiu, he had already given up on the name of the past. Therefore, from that day on, Li Shuihan of Zhenfeng College shouldn't have any connection with the Black Tortoise Nexus.
Ba Liyan was very willing to think so, but at this time, Qianyu took the initiative to confess her past identity in front of him. At this moment, Ba Liyan even realized that the reason the four great deans recognized him and knew his name was not because he was amiable or anything else, but because they were old acquaintances … as early as twenty years ago.
"It's only been twenty years!" Ba Li Yan suddenly sighed.
Getting first place in the entrance examination of the two academies in the Canyon Peak District wasn't a great achievement at all. However, with such a starting point that could only be considered mediocre in the mainland, he actually managed to take charge of one of the Four Great Academies, the Black Tortoise Academy, in just twenty years?
"Twenty-two," said Ratatouille.
Was there a big difference between two more years and two less years? Ba Li Yan thought to himself, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. The person in front of him was no longer the Zhaifeng student who had accepted his assessment, but the dean of the Black Tortoise Academy, one of the top figures in the mainland.
"Yes, it's twenty-two." He could only pretend that he remembered.
"It's the Black Tortoise Academy after all." Ratatouille smiled.
"Oh?" Ba Li Yan didn't understand where this came from.
"As long as you have enough strength, it's not strange to become a dean in twenty-two years," said Ratatouille.
"That's also not easy …" In the bitter cold, Ba Li Yan wiped his sweat in a daze. The Black Tortoise Academy valued martial arts the most, and strength was respected. What Ratatouille meant was that under such an atmosphere, as long as one's strength was outstanding enough, there wouldn't be many obstacles to becoming a dean. But the problem was that this was the Black Tortoise Academy, and it wasn't easy to become an outstanding person here in twenty-two years!
Moreover, this was the time that Li Shuihan, the Zhaifeng girl, had been in the Black Tortoise Academy for twenty-two years. And she didn't become the dean of the Black Tortoise Academy recently. Ba Li Yan vaguely remembered that the new dean of the Black Tortoise Academy, Tianxin, should be five or six years ago. In other words, from the Zhaifeng girl Li Shuihan to the dean of the Black Tortoise Academy, it had actually only been ten years.
Were the people who came out of Zhenfeng Academy still human? Were they all monsters? There was Li Shuihan before, and now there was Lu Ping.
Ba Li Yan had already begun to recall the four names that made Zhenfeng Academy proud. Fang Yizhu, whom he had just met at Zhenfeng Academy a while ago, had already returned to help rebuild the academy. He remembered that this person was the fourth of the four. The other two were before Fang Yizhu, and what were the names of the two after Li Shuihan? Could it be that these two had already made a name for themselves in the four great academies?
Fortunately, apart from the Seven Constellations of the Black Tortoise Academy, the other academies didn't have the custom of abandoning their original names. Ba Li Yan could at least confirm that the names of these two weren't among the current leaders of the Big Dipper Seven Peaks, the Missing Five Islands, and the Southern Sky Four Gates. Fortunately, Li Shuihan, who had become Qiansu, didn't scare him like this.
"I haven't seen you for many years, Dean Ba looks a little older." Qiansu said at this time.
"Yes." Ba Li Yan replied, and his back bowed even deeper. When he recognized that the Black Tortoise Dean in front of him was a girl who came out of Zhenfeng Academy, Ba Li Yan couldn't help but recall those years. He not only thought of this person, but also the various kinds of contempt and oppression of the newly established Zhenfeng Academy in those years.
Li Shuihan was a member of Zhenfeng Academy at that time, and now, she was the dean of Black Tortoise Academy. She didn't forget her identity as Li Shuihan of Zhenfeng Academy, so did she not forget some of the unpleasant things in Zhenfeng Academy in those years? Thinking of this, Ba Li Yan's heart couldn't help but tremble. He felt that he should say something quickly, but he couldn't find the right words. He only heard Qiansu say leisurely, "President Guo is already gone."
"That has nothing to do with me!" Ba Li Yan hurriedly explained. Old Guo's death really had nothing to do with him.
"I know." Qiansu said, "You and your Canyon Peak Academy don't have this ability."
"Yes, yes." Ba Li Yan nodded repeatedly, not minding Qiansu's contempt for their Canyon Peak Academy's strength.
"But I heard that Zhenfeng Academy is now being rebuilt." Qiansu said.
"Yes, yes. Several of Zhenfeng's younger generation have recently returned to Canyon Peak City and rebuilt Zhenfeng Academy. Speaking of which, this old man specially went to congratulate them at that time, and saw that the new academy is a complete replica of the past! It's really worth celebrating. "Ba Li Yan said.
"Then who is the current dean of Zhenfeng Academy?" Qiansu asked.
"Lu Ping. He should be the most outstanding student of Zhenfeng in the next ten years. "Ba Li Yan raised his thumb and praised with all his might.
"The younger generation will surpass us in time." Qiansu said.
"My old bones are useless." Ba Li Yan said.
"Thank you for your tea." Qiansu stretched out her hand and handed back the hot tea Ba Li Yan offered her.
"You're welcome." Ba Li Yan took the teacup and suddenly remembered that the kettle had fallen on the ground. When he looked down, he saw that in a flash, the kettle had frozen in the snow.
It can't be!
Ba Li Yan was surprised. He bent down to pick it up, but the kettle didn't move at all. Ba Li Yan claimed that he was useless, but that was in front of Black Tortoise Dean. It wasn't to the extent that he couldn't even deal with a block of ice. He increased his strength and used some soul power, but the kettle still didn't move. More strength! It still didn't move!
Bending down to pick up the kettle, Ba Li Yan, whose butt was facing the sky, suddenly realized that something was wrong. He raised his head and found that Qiansu, who was originally in front of him, had disappeared. He was the only one left, maintaining such a funny posture in the snow.
