Words:893Update:22/06/30 03:54:39
The Yan Country's Imperial Capital was already filled with many disciples from the other academies. Before the Spirit Battle Tournament began, they would be roaming around the Imperial Capital, taking in the prosperity of the mightiest country.
Five horse carriages rolled through the streets of the Imperial Capital and many of the disciples from the other academies immediately recognized the banners of the Zephyr Academy. They stopped in their tracks and craned their necks to look at the team from one of the top three academies. But in their eyes, there was less envy and more mockery.
"Why are there so few people from the Zephyr Academy this year?" One of the youths asked, his face puzzled as he stared at the horse carriages moving away.
The academy he was in was just a medium tier academy, but even so, they had still sent out ten horse carriages for the Spirit Battle Tournament this time. Including the ten disciples participating in the Spirit Battle Tournament, and a few teachers, they added up to more than thirty people.
"That's strange. What is the Zephyr Academy doing this year? The Dragon Slayers Academy and the War Banner Academy have sent out twenty horse carriages this year. How many people can the Zephyr Academy fit in these few horse carriages? "The youth asked, scratching at his head, his heart filled with questions.
The Spirit Battle Tournament would last for a whole month and besides the disciples participating in the tournament, the teachers who would guide them and the staff in charge of logistics were all indispensable. Hence, even though there were only ten people taking part in the tournament, the number of people from the various academies had doubled.
The better the academies, the more prepared they would be, and the more people they would send. For the War Banner Academy, not only had they sent their own people, they had also sent several of the disciples' attendants to attend to them. It was all for the sake of giving them the best care in the month, to allow them to prepare for the tournament.
Moreover, the Yan Country's hospitality towards the various academies was based on their strength. For an academy like the Zephyr Academy which was one of the top three academies, even if they had only sent out seventy or eighty people, the Yan Country would be more than happy to receive them.
But the Zephyr Academy had only sent out five horse carriages this year and each carriage could only fit four people at most. In total, it would not be more than twenty people, which was not befitting of its status.
The youth accompanying him asked: "You don't know what happened to the Zephyr Academy?"
"What happened?" The youth's face was puzzled.
His companion replied: "You really don't know anything about it! The Zephyr Academy stirred up such a huge storm at the end of last year and you haven't heard anything about it? "
The young man shook his head and curiously asked his companion, "What's going on?"
"Something big happened in the Zephyr Academy at the end of last year. The Headmaster, Fan Qi, was murdered by the Vice Headmaster and the position of the Zephyr Academy's Headmaster has been taken over by Fan Qi's son, Fan Jin."
"What?! Fan Jin? I remember that he had taken part in the Spirit Battle Tournament last year as well. Although he did not manage to get into the top ten, his ranking was not too bad. But ….. How old is he? To be the Headmaster of the Zephyr Academy, isn't that a little too childish!? "The youth's eyes widened, unable to believe what he had just heard.
Fan Jin might be outstanding enough, but he was about the same age as an ordinary disciple. The deans of the various academies were all highly respected adults. Not to mention a teenager, even if Fan Jin's age was doubled, he still wouldn't be a suitable candidate to be the dean!
"Who else could it be if not him? The Vice Headmaster killed the Headmaster and the two Headmasters are gone. The Zephyr Academy is no longer the Zephyr Academy of the past. During the break at the end of last year, the disciples and teachers of the Zephyr Academy had left and at the start of this year, only a few of them returned to the Zephyr Academy. "
