The moment he gave the order, all the rebel soldiers were stunned and quickly retreated.
Perhaps it was because they had escaped from Tiancheng Nation once, so they retreated especially quickly and methodically. At least, it was more orderly than when they attacked. Not long after, all the rebel soldiers fled from Meteor Trail City, leaving behind the huge ruins of the city gate.
After the battle just now, almost all the buildings within a mile of the city gate were destroyed, and the buildings beyond that were mostly destroyed as well. Moreover, countless soldiers and civilians had died in this battle, and even two teachers from Meteor Trail Academy had died in battle.
Seeing that the rebel soldiers had retreated, the academy teachers also heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the rebel soldiers had left. Otherwise, if the battle had continued, they would have been at the end of their rope and would have lost without a doubt.
Then, they immediately thought of that young man. If he had not arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Other than a few people who went to do a headcount, everyone else immediately went to the young man's side. Han Ying also ran out from the corner and rushed over with the others.
However, when she arrived in front of Lu An, she did not know what to say.
Li Hongtang and Jiang Gang were the same. When the two of them came to Lu An's side and saw Lu An up close, they were stunned and completely shocked!
On the other hand, Lu An looked at the familiar figures and smiled, saying respectfully, "Student Lu An greets all the teachers."
Student?!
The other teachers were stunned and looked at the young man in shock. They had never thought that this young man was actually a student of the academy!
Why had they not heard of a student called Lu An before?
Wait!!
Lu An?!
In an instant, the incident that had happened more than a year ago appeared in everyone's minds! During the Academy Ranking Battle, the two representatives of Meteor Trail Academy had shocked everyone with their battle skills, and one of them was called Lu An!
They still remembered clearly that more than a year ago, Lu An had killed someone from Skylight City and caused Meteor Trail Academy to pay a huge sum of money. It had even taken the dean and the city lord personally intervening to settle the matter. At that time, many teachers had resented Lu An.
Moreover, when they heard that both Lu An and Fu Yu had run away, they were even more furious. However, he didn't expect that someone would come back at this time, and in such a way!
Everyone was still in shock. Lu An thought for a moment, turned to Li Hongtang, and said sincerely, "Mr. Li, thank you for letting me go last year."
Hearing this, Li Hongtang no longer suspected that the young man in front of him was Lu An!
"It really is you!" Li Hongtang was quiet, but when he spoke, his voice was like thunder. He said excitedly, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful after a year!"
Lu An smiled and said, "Teacher, you're the best."
"Hahaha!" Upon hearing Lu An's words, even though he knew that Lu An was intentionally flattering him, Li Hongtang laughed even louder and became even more excited!
At this moment, an elder walked over from the side. It was the headmaster of the Starfire Academy. He sized up Lu An from head to toe. During last year's Academy Ranking Tournament, he had personally gone to the entrance to send off Lu An. He had also met Lu An once before. Last year's troublesome matter was also solved by him personally, so how could he not remember Lu An's name?
"It's really you!" The headmaster looked at Lu An and sighed, "The younger generation will surpass us in time. I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you're already a level two Heavenly Master."
As soon as he said this, everyone's hearts shook and they nodded.
"Let's go back to the academy first." The headmaster said and looked at Lu An, "If you have nothing else to do, follow me back to the academy to take a look."
Lu An replied respectfully, "Yes."

An hour later, in the Starfire Academy's Assembly Hall.
In the academy, all the teachers were gathered together. Not only that, even the people from the major clans were gathered together.
Because of Lu An's appearance, the battle had already ended by the time the people from the major clans arrived. They were informed to head to the Starfire Academy, saying that they had something important to discuss.
Since the headmaster said so, the other clans naturally wouldn't reject. Therefore, the major clans sent out their experts or people in charge to gather in the Assembly Hall. It could be said that in the entire Starfire City, other than the City Lord who was cultivating in seclusion, all the higher-ups were here.
Since the City Lord wasn't here, there was naturally someone to replace him. And the person who replaced him was none other than his daughter, Chu Ling, who was also a student of the Starfire Academy.
With the people from the major clans gathered, the largest Alkaid Chamber of Commerce in the Starfire City naturally couldn't be missed. Not long after, a beautiful figure appeared at the entrance of the Assembly Hall, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
It had to be said that Liu Yi was simply too charming.
Her looks and figure were enough to attract men. However, what made her even more charming was her status. It could be said that she controlled the economic lifeline of the Starfire City. Any word she said would cause a drastic change in the Starfire City's format.
People even said that her words were more influential than the City Lord's. Everyone was guessing who would end up with such a high status and powerful woman, and who would have such good fortune?
After being notified to attend the meeting, Liu Yi naturally wouldn't delay. After looking around, she quickly found an empty seat and sat down. Although she didn't know what had happened, she could vaguely feel that the battle of the rebel army's invasion had ended a little too quickly.
However, there was still an empty seat beside her, but no one had the courage to sit next to her.
Soon, everyone arrived one after another. The headmaster sat at the head of the table. After seeing that everyone had arrived, he stood up and said, "Today, I've gathered everyone here because I have two things to say.
"The first thing is that we need to discuss the strategy of resisting the rebel army again. After today's battle, we realized that if we send people from the various clans, it's still too slow to reach the battlefield. We need to change our method … "
The headmaster spoke very long. After all, he had the most experience. He considered the positions where the experts from the various clans should be stationed from various angles. Everyone listened quietly, including Liu Yi.
However, at this moment, a sound suddenly came from beside Liu Yi. It was obvious that someone had sat down on the empty seat beside her. This made her frown slightly, and a trace of dissatisfaction appeared in her heart.
She didn't like other people sitting next to her, especially men.
Thus, she frowned and turned her head to look at the annoying newcomer. At the same time, she said, "I don't like other people sitting …"
However, when she turned around and saw that smiling face, she was unable to say the rest of her words!
Looking at that smiling face, Liu Yi's beautiful face became more and more surprised. In the end, it was even a look of shock that she had never shown before! Looking at this familiar face, her heart started to beat even faster!
"It's you?!" Liu Yi couldn't even suppress her voice, which attracted the attention of the people around her. She immediately realized it and quickly lowered her voice, looking at Lu An again.
Lu An didn't sit in the arena just now because he wanted to give Liu Yi a surprise. Just as he was about to say something, Liu Yi suddenly made a move.
Dong!
Liu Yi slapped Lu An on the head, which stunned Lu An. Then, she said angrily, "How long has it been? Why didn't you come back when something happened? I thought you had died outside! "
Looking at Liu Yi's suppressed agitation, Lu An's heart suddenly felt warm. No matter what, Liu Yi's protection of him was sincere.
"Aren't I back now?" Lu An chuckled and said, "If I came back before, I was afraid that I would cause you trouble."
"Do I look like someone who's afraid of trouble?" Liu Yi gritted her teeth and looked at Lu An with hatred. She said, "Fortunately, you still have the heart to come back. This time, no matter what happens, you're not allowed to run away again, okay? "
Hearing that, Lu An nodded with a smile and said, "Okay."
At this time, Zhang Ruitong and the Dean had finished speaking. His suggestion was approved by everyone. Indeed, when the rebel army invaded, the Heavenly Masters had to be there immediately. If the big families arrived at different times, they would be defeated by the rebel army one by one.
After reaching an agreement, everyone was curious. The Dean said that there were two things in total. What was the other thing?
Looking at everyone's puzzled gazes, the Dean smiled and said, "The second thing is a piece of good news. I'm afraid everyone is very puzzled as to why today's battle was so fast. I can tell everyone without hesitation that another powerful Level 2 Heavenly Master has arrived in Starfire City! "
Level 2 Heavenly Master?!
When these words were spoken, everyone's faces were filled with joy! One had to know that every additional Level 2 Heavenly Master was a huge improvement! And when the rebel army attacked, the Level 2 Heavenly Master who risked his life to support them was simply sending charcoal in the snow!
Even Liu Yi, who was seated, was puzzled. She did not know who this Level 2 Heavenly Master was.
"This Heavenly Master is …" The Dean looked around and raised his hand with everyone's expectant gaze. He pointed to the side and said loudly, "Lu An!"
