Chen Yu stood upright, listening to the gossip around him, a polite smile on his face.
Master is right, gold shines wherever it is.
This time, she will definitely shine. She will let Shen Jiao know what it means to overestimate oneself by trying to break through a rock with an egg!
Meanwhile, the chess dean was also in a state of utter chaos.
The director of the Qin Academy was seriously ill, so the academy was temporarily managed by Master Cai Qin.
Master Cai Qin ignored the many disciples in the Qin Academy and led his favorite student to Liang Kingdom to oppose his own people. It was a complete infighting. What kind of talk is that!
"Dean of the Academy, where are you going?" Dean of the Chess Academy only saw a figure flash by and quickly called out to the passerby.
The headmaster looked bitter: "I went to encourage the students, but Cai Qinshi not only took Shen Yu away, but also tricked most of the top twenty students in Liuguang Pavilion away. The morale of the Great Yan side is low."
"What! Half! When did this happen?" Dean Qi staggered, almost losing his balance.

Shen Jiao instinctively covered her ears; nothing could be more deafening.
Ji Yan glanced at her and smiled: "You, you're afraid of the cold, afraid of the heat, and afraid of death. Now you can't even stand a harsh sound. You're so delicate."
Shen Jiao: "???"
Brother, this is called being delicate; it's already causing tinnitus. Thank you.
“Besides me, there really is no one else in the world who can solve this problem for you.” Ji Yan looked thoughtful.
Shen Jiao asked, puzzled, "What's the problem?"
She had just woken up and was suddenly hit in the ear by the loud noise, causing tinnitus. She has recovered now, so what could be wrong?
For some reason, she suddenly felt a tingling sensation on her scalp, and had a bad feeling.
