As he thought about this, Nangong's smile brightened. He looked at An Yu and said gently, "Of course, our team welcomes you. Your strength is obvious to all. I believe that with you joining us, our team will achieve even better results! And I believe that with you here, my pressure will be reduced a lot!"
An Yu nodded in disbelief. Who could say for sure about such things? And he was destined to cause trouble...
"Instructor Nangong, since An Yu has joined your team, you should accept me as well. Everyone knows that we are inseparable. You can't separate us!"
As An Yu walked over, Su Fanjun also followed behind An Yu. He looked at Teacher Nangong and said with a hearty smile.
"Okay, okay, come over if you want to. Our group welcomes you, but you can't tease the girls in our group!" Nangong smiled as he looked at the unrestrained Su Fanjun and said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Okay, don't worry, as long as you accept me, anything is fine!" Su Fanjun laughed a few times and answered cheerfully.
Not long after, the group was divided into groups. At this time, Instructor Baili stood up. He cleared his throat a few times and said to the twenty-five newly divided groups:
"Okay, students. Now you've been divided into groups. Each group will have two second-year students leading you, a group of freshmen. After you get to know each other, this group should be your team for the Freshman Trials.
What I want to say is that according to the latest regulations of the academy, this time, only you students can enter the Tianqi Mountains. All instructors cannot accompany you in. Don't ask me why, I only received the news last night."
After this statement was made, all the students were in an uproar. In the past, their instructors had led the team, but now that their instructors were gone, what would they do? In the Apocalypse Mountains, where they were participating in the freshman trials, there were all sorts of high-level magical beasts. If these tough people from Shili Fort went in, wouldn't they be the monsters' dinner?!
Everyone below was talking about it, and all the mentors' faces changed drastically. If they were not allowed in, how could they bring the greatest benefit to their families? If they didn't keep an eye on it, who would know what was inside?
Nangong smiled at Instructor Baili and asked first, "Instructor Baili, you are not kidding, are you? There was no such rule in previous years. We are the instructors who have always led the team. If we are not allowed to go in, what will happen to the safety of these students?
These students are the pride of our empire! We can't afford to pay for the loss of even one! Are you lying to us because you have some secret you dare not reveal?
Although the tone was gentle, the question was very sharp!
However, the other tutors, except for the academy's own and those from the Baili family, although the other tutors did not say anything, they all looked at Tutor Baili with a questioning look, making it clear that they did not believe him!
Instructor Baili chuckled a few times, looked at Nangong Xiao with some disdain and said, "Do you think I'm you? I knew you wouldn't believe me. Look, I brought a message from the dean!"
After saying that, he took out a piece of jade from the space ring. After taking it out, no one knew what he did, but white mist began to emanate from around the jade. Slowly, the white mist condensed, and an image appeared above the jade.
The dean himself appeared and said with a serious face, "After several discussions, we have decided that this time, the freshman trials will be entirely for students. All instructors are not allowed to participate. They can only wait in Sugo Town for the students to come out. I hope that all of you instructors can supervise each other. For any instructor who enters the Apocalypse Mountains without permission, this academy will give the most severe punishment!"
At the end of the conversation, the voice gradually became distant and the image became blurry.
Instructor Baili glanced at the somewhat depressed Nangong Xiao with disdain, put away the jade, and asked with some complacency: "How is it, any other questions?"
Nangong Xiao shook his head dejectedly, and the other instructors also looked thoughtful. Since the academy was able to make this decision, it meant that the four major families were also aware of this decision. They just didn't know why they suddenly changed their minds!
Instructor Baili didn't care about that. He looked at the twenty-five groups of students who were about to participate in the freshman trials and said seriously, "Okay, I will now announce some points that you should pay attention to during this freshman trial.
First, senior students, you must do your best to protect the freshmen and set a good example for them. You must know that their ranking also means your ranking.
Second, each of you has a lottery token. For senior students, there are two one-time teleportation arrays on the number tokens given to you. If your life is threatened, you can crush it and it can take you back to Sugo Town instantly.
Third, I hope everyone will always remember that you are a team, and every team must have team spirit, never give up, work hard, and get the best result.
Well... finally, I wish everyone can get the best ranking. However, everyone should remember that you only have one life, and you can have honors again. I hope everyone will focus on their own safety. I want to see each of you come back safely.
Well, that's all I have to say. Look at your other mentors and see if they have anything else to say. If not, then you can go into the mountains!"
After finishing these high-sounding words, even An Ran couldn't help but cheer for him. If they didn't know how dirty the people of the four major families were behind the scenes, then everyone would be moved to tears. These words were simply spoken by an elder who cares for the younger generation!
However... I wonder how Nangong Xiao will respond when facing the aggressive mentor Baili?
Nangong Xiao looked at the members of their group and smiled apologetically. He said with some regret: "Sorry, classmates, it seems that due to the school's temporary regulations, I can't accompany you into the mountains. After you go in, you must remember to unite with each other. Only when you help each other can you do your best!"
After a pause, he looked at An Yu and Su Fanjun and said, "You two should be the two strongest people in this group. I hope you can bring all the team members out safely. Can you promise me?"
