"Is that so?"
Qi Yan smiled and said, "Could it be that you've obtained some more accurate information?"
"I don't have any more accurate information."
Jiang Yuanming smiled mysteriously and said, "But before the academy closed, I received one last piece of information …"
Qi Yan couldn't wait any longer and urged, "Hurry up and say it."
"There were 3,140 students who signed up for the selection."
Jiang Yuanming sneered and said, "Before the academy closed, not a single student came out. What does this mean?"
"Haha!"
Qi Yan clapped and said, "This means that Gu Li has no intention of selecting. He took all the students into the academy and prayed for luck to see if there are any outstanding students!"
"Haha, that's right. Tower Master Qi is right!"
Jiang Yuanming also laughed and said, "It can be seen how eager Gu Li is to seek talents!"
"What a pity!"
Qi Yan changed the topic and said, "Even if he's desperate for talents, those 3,000 students are the leftovers from the Huang City Academy and even the Xuhuang Hotel. How can they stand out in the Heroic Selection?"
"So, Tower Master Qi, you don't have to worry about anything."
Jiang Yuanming said, "After the academy closes, the Huang City Academy will submit a request to take over. At that time, the Heavenly Tomes hidden in the academy will belong to Tower Master Qi."
"No, no!"
When Qi Yan heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "It's ours!"
"Tower Master Qi, I know my place."
Jiang Yuanming smiled and said, "If the Heavenly Tomes Academy didn't close and the Huang City Academy could take over, Tower Master Qi wouldn't have come to cooperate with me. So, I don't dare to covet the Heavenly Tomes. As long as Tower Master Qi can let me have a look after the Heavenly Tomes!"
Qi Yan was very satisfied. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Principal Jiang. I won't go back on my words. As long as I get the Heavenly Tomes, I'll give them to Principal Jiang!"
"Thank you, Tower Master Qi!"
Jiang Yuanming was even happier. However, after he finished speaking, he probed, "Actually, I've always had a question that I didn't dare to ask. Now that the Heroic Selection is about to begin, the Huang City Academy and the Heavenly Tomes Academy have already submitted a request …"
Before Jiang Yuanming could finish speaking, Qi Yan smiled and said, "Principal Jiang, you don't have to worry!"
"What I want to ask is ~"
Jiang Yuanming said carefully, "With Tower Master Qi's ability, even Gu Li's life would be a piece of cake for you, let alone the Heavenly Book Academy's Heavenly Book. Why do you have to go through so much trouble?"
"Hehe ~"
Qi Yan smiled and said, "This Qi will definitely answer this question truthfully. However, after this Qi is done, can you also answer this Qi's question?"
Jiang Yuanming was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly nodded and said, "Of course!"
"It's actually very simple ~"
"The Heavenly Book Academy hides the location of the Heavenly Book. Only a disciple of the Gu Clan can open it. Unless I truly take over the Heavenly Book Academy, it is unlikely that I will be able to see the Heavenly Book."
"Moreover, to tell you the truth, I once secretly went to the Heavenly Book Academy. Aside from the mysteries of the Heavenly Book, there was also an extremely strange aura. This aura did not belong to the Gu Family's ancestor, nor did it belong to the academy's immortal restriction. However, this aura also carried a warning, warning outsiders not to rashly enter!"
"I've hesitated for a long time, but in the end, I don't dare to enter!"
"Hiss ~"
Jiang Yuanming sucked in a breath of cold air and said, "Even Tower Lord Qi doesn't dare to enter?"
"That's right ~"
Qi Yan nodded and said, "I'm sure that there are many people who have the same goal as me. They were also scared away by that aura. Otherwise, how could the Heavenly Book Academy have been able to keep the Heavenly Book?"
"Then …"
Jiang Yuanming wanted to say something but stopped.
"Don't worry ~"
Qi Yan understood what Jiang Yuanming meant. He smiled and said, "You have taken over the Heavenly Book Academy. Naturally, you would know what that aura is. As the Headmaster of the Heavenly Book Academy, opening the Heavenly Book … is a matter of course!"
"Mm, mm ~"
Jiang Yuanming replied, "I understand."
"Then, I'll have to ask you ~"
Qi Yan looked at Jiang Yuanming and said, "The Yellow City Academy is one of the five academies. If you challenge the Heavenly Book Academy to a fight, you might be suspected of bullying the weak. It's just an illusory Heavenly Book. Headmaster Jiang, it's unlikely that you would gamble your reputation. Behind this, could it be …"
At this point, Qi Yan did not continue. Even so, Jiang Yuanming's expression changed slightly. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but stopped.
"Haha, haha ~"
Qi Yan laughed and said, "Headmaster Jiang, have you made a promise to them?"
"Yes ~"
Jiang Yuanming nodded honestly.
"Then …"
Qi Yan continued to ask, "Is it related to … Nangong Shiru?"
When Jiang Yuanming heard that it had nothing to do with Wen Nuo, he smiled and nodded. However, he still did not say anything.
"Hehe ~"
Qi Yan smiled mysteriously and said, "As expected, it seems like I made the right bet!"
"What … what do you mean?"
Jiang Yuanming was surprised. He quickly asked, "Landlord Qi … already … already knew?"
"Of course ~"
Qi Yan said confidently, "Do you think I can just find someone to cooperate with for a secret like the Heavenly Book? If I didn't know that the family would seek revenge for the smallest grievance and would definitely seek revenge on the Heavenly Book Academy because of Nangong Shiru, and that family was reprimanded by the Emperor, they would definitely find someone to stir up trouble. Otherwise, why would I ask you for a fight between the Yellow City Academy and the Heavenly Book Academy? "
Jiang Yuanming was dumbfounded. He did not know if Qi Yan was telling the truth or not. After all, his cooperation with the Nangong Family was extremely secretive. Moreover, it was a coincidence. How could Qi Yan know?
Even if Qi Yan knew divination, wouldn't the Nangong Family know how to reverse Yin and Yang?
Whoosh ~
While Jiang Yuanming was still in shock, there was a sudden breeze. The messenger in his sleeve moved.
"Landlord Qi, please wait ~"
Jiang Yuanming looked at the messenger and quickly stood up to apologize.
"It's fine ~"
Qi Yan smiled. He knew that his words had stunned Jiang Yuanming.
Jiang Yuanming had just walked to the corner of the hall when he suddenly exclaimed, "What? Xiao … Xiao Wenheng is representing the Heavenly Book Academy to fight … "
Qi Yan was also stunned. His smile froze on his face. He quickly stood up and shouted, "Chief Jiang, what is going on? Which Xiao Wenheng? "
"Xiao Hua!"
Jiang Yuanming put away the messenger and did not go outside. He turned around and said with gritted teeth, "He is in the Heavenly Book Academy. Now that the Heavenly Book Academy is open, he is going with Gu Li to participate in the Elite Selection at the Xuhuang City!"
"Damn it!"
Qi Yan cursed, "Why would this Xiao Wenheng suddenly appear?"
"I suspect that he has always been in the Heavenly Book Academy!"
Jiang Yuanming narrowed his eyes and said, "The Heavenly Book Academy has been closed for a thousand years to block any news about him. They are preparing to catch us off guard!"
