Three days later, at Starfire Academy.
Lu An lived up to his reputation as a self-healer. Even his broken bones and torn muscles were mostly healed in just three days. Even the lizard could not compare to his speed.
Although he had been lying in bed for three consecutive days, Lu An had not rested at all. Under the guidance of the person in the black fog, he practiced the Scorching Sun Nine Suns with all his might. Although he could not release the Scorching Sun Nine Suns yet, he could already raise a small sun in his heart within ten breaths.
Since his injuries were mostly healed, Lu An did not want to stay in the dormitory all the time. In the morning, Lu An woke up early and walked around the campus as usual. Gao Dashan and the others were with him as they rushed to class together. However, he realized that there were always people peeking at him. Some of them even stared at him openly and pointed at him.
Lu An could guess what was going on. Even after the Grudge Meeting last time, there was not such a big reaction. He could not understand why it was so big this time.
Looking at Lu An's confused gaze, Gao Dashan chuckled and came to Lu An's side. "Brother Lu, do you know why they like to look at you so much?"
"Why?" Lu An frowned and asked Gao Dashan.
"Because Lin Tianhao and Wang Zhenggang, who are ranked number one in the academy, were kicked out by you and the other is still lying in bed after being beaten up by you. Everyone in the academy is wondering when you'll kick the number two out! "Gao Dashan laughed and said loudly.
Lu An was stunned when he heard that. He shook his head helplessly and said, "I have no grudge with them. Why would I want to make things difficult for them?"
"You can't say that. Wang Zhenggang and Lin Tianhao had nothing to do with you at first. Didn't they become rivals later on?" Gao Dashan shook his head and pretended to be profound as he said, "There are some things that are predestined by the gods!"
"…" Lu An looked at Gao Dashan helplessly and continued walking.
Soon, the group arrived at the classroom. Lu An came to class again and attracted the attention of all the students. At this moment, the students, regardless of whether they were rich or poor, were all quietly looking at Lu An, their eyes filled with awe.
If the rich kids still had the courage to be arrogant, Lin Tianhao's ending had destroyed their last bit of pride. Even those who had mocked Lu An lowered their heads, afraid that Lu An would find trouble with them.
Zhou Chengkun was still sitting in the front row. When he looked at Lu An, his eyes were first filled with panic and then deep hatred. Chu Ling, who was sitting beside him, looked at Lu An with a complicated expression. Her eyes were filled with too many emotions.
Lu An didn't pay much attention to these people's gazes. As usual, he sat separately from Gao Dashan and the others. He went straight to the last row's corner by the window and sat next to Fu Yu.
Fu Yu also came to class. She woke up earlier than Lu An.
Soon, the teacher entered the classroom and began to explain. Lu An listened attentively. Although he had already learned most of it from the person in the black fog, he still studied it carefully. However, if there was knowledge that was contrary to the person in the black fog's explanation, he would believe the person without hesitation.
After the first class in the morning ended, everyone took a break. Gao Dashan and the others also came to Lu An, chatting and laughing. Lu An was also happy to talk to these friends. Although Fu Yu didn't say anything, she didn't think it was noisy either.
At this moment, someone suddenly ran to Lu An and said loudly, "Lu An, someone's looking for you outside!"
Lu An was stunned. He looked at the door but didn't see anyone. He couldn't help but ask, "Who is it?"
"A beauty!" The person answered. He even raised his eyebrows and joked, "Looks like you're in luck with women!"
Fu Yu didn't move at all. Lu An looked a little embarrassed. He stood up under the strange gazes of the people around him and said, "I'll go and take a look."
After saying that, Lu An walked out of the crowd. He came to the door of the classroom and looked around. Sure enough, he saw a woman with a graceful figure and outstanding looks. He knew this woman.
"Why are you here?" Lu An looked at Liu Yi standing in front of him and asked in surprise.
"Why? Can't I come?" Liu Yi looked at Lu An and asked with a smile.
"This is the academy. Won't you attract attention if you appear here?" Lu An frowned and asked.
"No." Seeing Lu An's nervousness, Liu Yi didn't care at all. She smiled and said, "Because I'm also a teacher in this academy."
"What?" Lu An was stunned and looked at Liu Yi in shock.
"What's there to be surprised about? Do you think I'm not strong enough?" Liu Yi shrugged, her beautiful collarbone exposed to the air. She said, "Moreover, I'm just holding an idle position. I don't teach students here."
Lu An nodded and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen? "
Liu Yi didn't answer. Instead, she looked around and said, "It's not convenient to talk here. Come to my office."
After saying that, Liu Yi turned and left. Lu An was stunned. He thought about it and followed her.
Not far from the classroom was the teachers' office area. Lu An followed Liu Yi into her exclusive office. After closing the door, the whole world quieted down.
"What's the matter?" Lu An asked immediately.
Liu Yi sat on the sofa at the side. Her expression became serious as she said, "Have you heard of the Starfire Summit?"
"Starfire Summit?" Lu An was startled. He frowned and shook his head. "I've never heard of it."
Liu Yi seemed to have expected this answer. She took a light breath and said slowly, "The Starfire Summit is a gathering hosted by the City Lord's Mansion. It's held once a year. All the reputable Chambers of Commerce and families in Starfire City will participate in it to fight for the benefits of the next year."
"Benefits?" Lu An frowned.
"Yes." Liu Yi nodded and said, "Since ancient times, the strong have been respected. The many resources in Starfire City naturally have to be distributed to the various merchants. This is also a temporary measure to prevent these merchants from privately making a big fuss. At the Starfire Summit, there will be a fair competition. The winner will naturally get what he wants. "
"Including the Kong Family that you helped." Liu Yi raised her head to look at Lu An and said, "Do you think that the Wang Family can get so many official roads just because they have a close relationship with the City Lord's Mansion? Although we can't rule out this factor, the most important thing is that the Wang Family can get good results at the Starfire Summit every year. Only then can they get what they want. "
Listening to Liu Yi's words, Lu An's expression became more and more serious. This was indeed a good method. Not only could it prevent the large families from fighting in private, but it could also distribute resources reasonably. This Starfire Summit would probably be valued by everyone.
"So?" Lu An raised his head to look at Liu Yi and asked in a deep voice, "Why are you telling me this?"
"Nothing." Liu Yi smiled. Her smile was filled with the charm of maturity and success. She said, "I want you to fight for something for the Alkaid Chamber of Commerce."
