Yun Shenhai became more and more satisfied with Quan Ji as he looked at her, and finally made a concluding remark.
"How could I have such an outstanding disciple?"
"I knew I had a good eye."
Princess Quan was speechless upon hearing this.
"As long as you're happy, that's what matters most."
Yun Shenhai didn't catch the hidden meaning in her words. He reached out and patted Quan Ji's shoulder: "My dear disciple, let me tell you, we won't tell anyone about this method now. We'll wait until next week's Preacher Rising Star Competition and then quietly amaze everyone! Then we'll let those guys see whether our Azure Academy has any Preachers who are truly capable!"
"Master is already looking forward to their expressions then, it's bound to be interesting!"
"Oh, by the way, I've collected some rare and precious materials recently. Take a look at them, and feel free to ask if you need anything. You have a good foundation, so even if your master can't teach you much, I'll give you these resources, even if it means selling everything I own. You are my hope for the future!"
The enthusiastic Yun Shenhai picked out wave after wave of rare and precious materials from his spatial treasure bag for Quan Ji, leaving Quan Ji speechless.
Quan Ji watched it bit by bit, her expression gradually becoming blank.
Good heavens, this cheap master of mine is crazy, how come he's so rich? He's practically rolling in money!
With all this stuff, she could support the Holy Empire for a while longer!
However, Kwon Ji was also very clear about one thing.
The more you receive, the more you can get in return.
This reflects their high hopes for her and their investment in her.
There is no such thing as a free lunch. No one will give up their own interests for someone who can't bring them any benefit.
Quan Ji: "I will give it my all in this Rising Star Tournament, so don't worry."
This promise is all she can repay Yun Shenhai for now.
Yun Shenhai: "Your words are enough. Just like what you told your class before, something like... do your best. Yes! Just do your best."
Quan Ji smiled faintly, silently accepting this touching moment in her heart.
...
Back in her dorm, Quan Ji began to make plans.
She has a lot going on next week, so she needs to organize everything properly.
During this time, Leo discovered Virgo's exact landing location through the mutual intuition between the guardians of their respective constellations—possibly at the bottom of the library.
Quan Ji had also searched in this direction, and what she found even more unexpected was that the bottom floor of the library was where the Heart of the Dragon was located.
This saves her the trouble of searching for it; in the end… she'll still have to figure out a way to control the Dragon Heart.
Even if you don't take it now, you should at least draw a line and keep it safe for yourself.
Aside from these two most important things, there's the Preacher Rising Star Competition next week and Class C's second challenge match.
Once everything is completed, you can return to Saintly Glory.
Just as Quan Ji was pondering this, a bird flapped its wings and flew by.
Quan Ji was taken aback and accepted Fei Niao's letter.
The bird instantly transformed into a beam of light and vanished.
Quan Ji opened the envelope, and the contents almost made her lose control of her emotions.
[To Miss Quan Ji:]
[The Qingquan Empire has already signaled its intention to wage war against our Huoyi region. The first wave of attacks will begin in three days. Our forces are far inferior; please return immediately, Miss!]
May the gods be with you.
[Written by Quan Qingchi.]
After reading the letter, Quan Ji's forehead veins bulged.
"The Clear Spring Empire is excellent!"
Kuang—
Quan Ji slammed her fist on the table, almost breaking it.
Although the attack from the Qingquan Empire was inevitable, she never expected it to happen so quickly.
At least the Holy Glory Empire is now at level three, and the Clear Spring Empire is quite a distance away from the Holy Glory Empire. Its supply of food and troops is severely hampered, and it will not be easy to take over the Holy Glory Empire!
But now that she is no longer guarding the Holy Glory Empire, she is unsure whether any unexpected events might occur.
What if we go there and return to find it all in ruins?
A flame was gradually igniting in Quan Ji's heart, but she quickly extinguished it with calmness.
She has to weigh the pros and cons.
She closed her eyes and began writing with the set of golden dragon calligraphy.
[To Quan Qingchi.]
Give me a week, and I will return with my glorious warriors, shattering the clear springs.
[Quan Ji's letter.]
After writing, Quan Ji used her energy to condense a bird, tied the envelope to the bird's leg, and released it.
A phantom golden bird spread its wings and flew out of the window, its feathers fluttering in the blazing sunlight before finally landing.
As a Virgo, she would never give up.
The Rising Star Competition was something she had to give back to Azure Academy.
Then we can only wait and see how long the Holy Glory Empire can hold out without her, Princess Quan!
Her divine radiance is not something that can be easily pierced by swords!
Quan Ji found a few books and began to study diligently.
She needs to improve herself in all aspects and absorb more knowledge in the shortest possible time.
These books are some secret techniques she collected from the library, as well as some books on related management.
...
As night deepened, the bright moon painted the world with its silvery light, making everything look brand new, and the air was slightly chilly.
Jun Chenlan finally returned, only to see Quan Ji using energy to light up the room, making her place emit only a faint yellow light.
She kept her head down, reading intently, and taking meticulous notes in a flowing, elegant style.
However, Jun Chenlan could sense that Quan Ji was not in a good mood.
He walked over, took off his coat, and covered Quan Ji with it: "The central temperature control array is malfunctioning, the air is getting cold, don't catch a cold."
Quan Ji looked up and realized that Jun Chenlan had already returned.
"You're back."
Jun Chenlan nodded and asked, "You haven't had dinner?"
Only after thinking about it did Quan Ji realize that she was indeed hungry.
How did you know?
Jun Chenlan said with a hint of grievance, "You didn't ask me to go to the cafeteria with you today."
Quan Ji chuckled twice: "Something did happen, I've been quite busy."
Jun Chenlan: "Tell me, and I'll help you share the burden."
Quan Ji smiled and said, "I don't really want you to get involved in these things."
Jun Chenlan gave an "oh," his silver-gray hair drooping slightly, and he didn't seem very interested.
Quan Ji always felt that Jun Chenlan was like a little puppy that had been abandoned by its owner.
They're actually quite cute.
She smiled and said, "It's alright to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Jun Chenlan's dark eyes lit up instantly, and he began to listen attentively.
One thing that Quan Ji really likes about Jun Chenlan is...
He doesn't talk much, but he's a good listener and can bring her a good mood.
Obedient, compliant, and loyal.
She told them about the Qingquan Empire's impending attack on the Shengyao Empire, and also about the complicated matters she was currently bound to.
Jun Chenlan showed a pained expression: "Quan Ji, you've burdened yourself with too much."
