Chapter 425 Do You Know How to Respect Your Teachers?
Si Qingyun's straight back hunched slightly when he heard this, and his voice was filled with fatigue. "I can give up the competition..."
Mu Ze was a little surprised and said, "Then we..."
Before he could finish his words, An Shuxue beside him covered his mouth.
The tips of Mu Ze's ears turned red, and the next second he looked at her with some confusion, "What...what's wrong?"
An Shuxue glanced at him helplessly. Didn't she see that the dean's expression was not right? !
Luo Li raised her eyes, "What did they ask for?"
Si Qingyun glanced at her and nodded helplessly, "It is indeed a request."
Yue Hanchuan and the others looked at each other and asked curiously, "What's the request?"
The elders beside him asked, "What is the request?"
The dean never told them before, but he can tell them now.
If it wasn't an excessive request, they could have stayed out of this mess.
Anyway, they will never let any ridicule and insults fall on their disciples.
Si Qingyun hesitated for a moment, then said, "The other academies mean that if we withdraw from the competition, we must remove the Tianyuan name."
Luo Li frowned immediately, "What do you mean? They want Tianyuan Academy to remove the name Tianyuan?"
Si Qingyun sighed, "Yes, you all should know that our academy was not originally named this. It was only because we dominated the continent many years ago that we took on the name of the continent as an academy. This is the glorious past of our Tianyuan Academy."
Hearing this, everyone present nodded. Of course they knew.
They had also imagined how dazzling Tianyuan Academy was, a school full of brilliant geniuses, any one of whom could beat other academies.
Unfortunately, Tianyuan College, which has been in existence for nearly a hundred years, is still somewhat behind the other three colleges.
It's not just about the staffing of elder mentors, but also about the sharp decline in academy resources due to the decline in status.
They couldn't even equip the academy's talented disciples with super divine beasts. It wasn't that they couldn't capture them, but even after they caught them, the god-level beast trainers were unwilling to tame them for them and only agreed to tame one a year.
Who can stand this? Just thinking about it, Si Qingyun felt sorry for his students.
It was only in recent years that the situation began to improve slightly.
If Luo Li hadn't been there this time, with Yue Hanchuan and the others, Si Qingyun would at most have only thought about second place.
The wind blew through the treetops in the courtyard, bringing a hint of coolness and brushing across his cheek, as if taking away his former glory.
His eyes were burning with desire for victory and his commitment to the honor of Tianyuan Academy.
Si Qingyun sighed, "But this is just my obsession. Of course, your safety comes first. If..."
"Don't be so hypocritical." Mu Ze waved his hand. "It's just a small college competition, so take it easy."
Si Qingyun paused, but before he could say anything, he saw Luo Li and the others nodding.
Luo Li picked up the cup, her expression indifferent, "It's just a college competition. Winning the championship will make you happy."
A drop of cold sweat appeared on Si Qingyun's forehead. No, why did this sentence feel so strange?
But he also felt that it made sense, and a hint of kindness appeared on his face. It seemed that he still had great prestige among the students!
Mu Ze looked like he was about to cry. "The dean is so old, yet still so passionate. We young people certainly can't retreat without a fight!"
The kindness on Si Qingyun's face disappeared instantly. He glared at Mu Ze and said, "You little bastard! Do you know how to respect your teachers?"
Mu Ze chuckled, "Sorry, sorry, Dean, I spoke too quickly, but I meant what I meant!"
Ye Yichen also laughed, "I think he is absolutely right, a small college competition, it's a good thing."
Si Qingyun scolded with a smile, "Even if we have a super beast in our hands now, we can't let our guard down. Especially at the Skja Empire Academy, there are several talented students who are famous throughout the continent participating in this academy competition."
He sighed, "It seems that they want to completely trample our Tianyuan Academy under their feet."
Lan Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow. "Famous in the mainland? How famous can he be? Can he be compared to our A-Li?"
Si Qingyun glared, "You compare those people with Luo Li? They're comparing their heads!"
Luo Li laughed out loud when she heard this, "Not really."
Lan Xiaoxiao put her hands on her hips and said, "What's there to be afraid of?"
An Shuxue also nodded and said, "That's right, it's just the college competition, it's safe."
Mo Yizhou was still dressed in black. "Now that we've taken down the champion, we can head to the Cang Yan Sea. I really want to see what the Cang Yan Sea looks like."
Looking at the group of energetic young people in front of him, Si Qingyun's eyes were kind, "Don't worry, with the dean here, no one else can bully you!"
Luo Li and the others heard this and smiled softly, "Okay!"
They chatted for a while, and then there was a knock on the gate.
One of the elders heard the voice, glanced at Si Qingyun, then stood up and opened the gate.
Outside the courtyard, a young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, stood on the street outside the gate, holding a jade token in his hand and smiling. "Hello, is this the location of Tianyuan Academy?"
The elder was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, you are?"
The young man's smile grew even wider. He handed over the jade token and said in a clear voice, "I'm from Fengyun Auction House. Because of the grand event of this college competition, our masters at Fengyun Auction House have decided to hold an auction in three days to wish the college competition all the best."
Luo Li walked out the door and took the jade token, "Okay, we will participate."
The young man immediately turned around and said, "Okay! You can all enter with your jade tokens!"
Luo Li nodded, and the boy turned and left.
Luo Li returned to the courtyard with the jade token and waved it in front of everyone.
With the strength of the people present, they naturally heard clearly what the young man said.
Si Qingyun chuckled, "As expected of Fengyun Auction House, they never miss any opportunity to make money."
Mu Ze asked curiously, "Come to think of it, Fengyun Auction House is spread all over the continent. Who is the person behind it? Could it be that some big power is backing it up?"
Si Qingyun shook his head, "No."
Luo Li heard this, and a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes, "Do you know him, Dean?"
Si Qingyun nodded, then shook his head, "I kind of know him. We've met a few times."
Seeing so many curious heads coming over, Si Qingyun sighed and said, "Actually, you should have heard of him."
"Who is who?"
Si Qingyun raised his eyes to the sky and said in a faint voice, "Mo Xuan."
Luo Li and the others' expressions froze, "Uh... who?"
Si Qingyun blinked and looked at Luo Li, "You should know him."
Mu Ze and the others immediately shifted their gaze from Si Qingyun to Luo Li.
