"Why didn't you give this spot to An Tianzuo?" Zhou Wen asked after some thought.
Ouyang Lan said with a smile, "Because he's too strong. It's useless even if he goes."
Zhou Wen didn't understand what Ouyang Lan meant, but he could roughly guess that it was because he had obtained a special physique that limited his evolution level.
"Then why did you give this spot to me?" Zhou Wen wasn't stupid enough to believe that the spot would be wasted.
Even if An Tianzuo and An Jing couldn't go, the An family could use this spot to exchange for huge benefits. He believed that many aristocrats would be interested in this spot.
Taking a step back, the An family could also give this spot to a collateral relative of the An family. The An family was a large family, so it should be easy to find such a person.
Ouyang Lan looked at Zhou Wen and said, "Little Wen, regardless of whether you believe it or not, since Lingfeng and I are married, both of us need to accept each other's children. I will treat you as my own. Of course, Tianzuo and Little Jing are my children. My feelings for them are far deeper than yours. If you encounter danger together, I'll definitely save them first. But other than that, I'm willing to do all the duties a mother should do. "
"There's no need for you to do that." Zhou Wen actually liked Ouyang Lan's style.
Ouyang Lan said, "You don't have to feel burdened. This is just my own idea. I won't force it on you. If you are willing, the door to our home will always be open for you. If you aren't willing, I won't let anyone disturb you. Everything is up to you."
"Do you really think I can obtain a special physique?" Zhou Wen still couldn't understand why Ouyang Lan was so confident in him.
Even an outstanding person like An Jing didn't have a hundred percent confidence. Zhou Wen hadn't even advanced to the Legendary stage. To outsiders, he was far from being comparable to An Jing.
Ouyang Lan smiled as she took out her phone and opened her photo album. She tapped on a photo of a refined bespectacled elder.
"Do you know him?" Ouyang Lan asked as she pointed at the elder in the photo.
"Former principal …" Zhou Wen cried out involuntarily. Back at Guide High School, he had been taken care of by the former principal.
As Zhou Wen lived alone most of the time, he rarely returned home after high school. Even on weekends, he trained hard in school.
When he went to practice on weekends and Sundays, he would often meet the former principal. After some time, they became familiar with each other. The former principal would often invite Zhou Wen to his place for a meal.
However, due to his poor health, the former principal retired early. When the former principal left, Zhou Wen originally wanted to send him off, but the former principal didn't let him. He said that he hated such scenes the most.
Ever since then, Zhou Wen hadn't seen the former principal again. It had been almost a year.
"He told me that you are very good, even better than Little Jing. Although I don't completely agree with this, since he said that you are very good, then you should be very good," Ouyang Lan said with a smile.
"What's your relationship with the former principal?" Zhou Wen asked Ouyang Lan respectfully.
"He …" Ouyang Lan blinked her eyes slyly before continuing, "is my father."
"Ah!" Zhou Wen widened his eyes as he looked at the photo before looking at Ouyang Lan. It was as though there was some resemblance between their brows.
After Zhou Wen returned to his dorm, he still found it unbelievable. The woman his father had remarried was actually the former principal's daughter.
Ouyang Lan told him not to worry. The people from the bureau wouldn't dare cause trouble for him in the future, provided that Zhou Wen didn't leave Luoyang.
Ouyang Lan also told Zhou Wen that he could try cultivating the Sun Strafe Art that An Jing had given him.
The Sun Strafe Art also came from a mysterious land. However, it was a simplified version that had been modified by someone. Even without a special physique, one could cultivate it. In fact, famous Primordial Energy Arts like the Invincible Connate Divine Art in the Federation were mostly derived from it.
However, the simplified version couldn't compare to the original version, nor did it have the ability to obtain Mythical Companion Beasts.
Although the simplified version was much weaker than the original version, it was still much stronger than the typical Primordial Energy Art. Ouyang Lan hoped that Zhou Wen could master the Sun Strafe Art so that he would have a greater chance when vying for special physiques and Mythical Companion Beasts in the future.
Even if he didn't vie for special physiques and Mythical Companion Beasts, cultivating such high-level Primordial Energy Arts would only bring him benefits.
Zhou Wen hadn't decided if he wanted to vie for special physiques, but he wanted to take a look at the Sun Strafe Art.
Zhou Wen didn't want to cultivate the Sun Strafe Art. Since this Primordial Energy Art came from a mysterious land like the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra, Zhou Wen wanted to know if the Lost Immortal Sutra was really useful for these Primordial Energy Arts.
He had been in possession of the USB drive for a long time, but this was the first time Zhou Wen had read its contents. The Sun Strafe Art was indeed a high-level Primordial Energy Art, far above Ascetic Meditation.
After Zhou Wen finished reading the entire Sun Strafe Art, the Lost Immortal Sutra in him didn't stir. It wasn't like the last time he read the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra, where it automatically switched to the Small Perfection of Wisdom Sutra's circulation mode.
Could it be that I have to read the original sutra for it to be effective? Zhou Wen guessed inwardly.
Zhou Wen put away the USB drive and was just about to switch on his phone to grind the Tiger Cage Pass dungeon when Li Xuan came looking for him.
"The An family has helped you settle this matter. I'm afraid the people from the bureau won't dare come again in the future. Now, you can rest assured. Shouldn't you complete the test mission left behind by Counselor Wang Fei?" Li Xuan said with a grin.
"Alright." Zhou Wen thought for a moment and agreed. Since there weren't many days left, it was good to complete the test mission first.
Although Wang Fei said that they could form a team of four to kill the Demonized General, Li Xuan and Zhou Wen didn't plan on finding anyone else. After all, the two of them were enough.
Sunset College was just too big. Yesterday's incident didn't alarm many people. There were even fewer people who knew that Zhou Wen was related to yesterday's incident, so the students didn't have any special reactions when they saw Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen and Li Xuan were walking in the direction of Tiger Cage Pass when they suddenly heard a commotion ahead. Then, they saw many students running back.
A few students shouted as they ran, "Everyone, run! There's a word-engraved Demonized General ahead. It's rushing over!"
As the strategy guide had specifically mentioned that even Legendary experts might not be a match for word-engraved Demonized General, these first-year students didn't dare take the risk. All of them fled towards the exit of the Tiger Cage Pass dimensional zone.
