Chapter 275 The Tragic Flander
"The teacher is really amazing."
Ye Qifeng nodded in agreement, but didn't elaborate further, instead saying:
"I'll introduce you to her sometime when I have the chance."
At this time, it is not appropriate to let Liu Erlong know that his teacher is Bibi Dong.
If she knew, she might start thinking all sorts of nonsense.
After all, due to the influence of a certain useless master, she should now be extremely hostile towards her teacher Bibi Dong.
"OK."
Liu Erlong smiled straightforwardly.
Seeing that Ye Qifeng didn't mention his teacher much, Liu Erlong didn't pay much attention.
Perhaps his teacher prefers to keep a low profile?
Therefore, she did not ask any further questions.
However, my curiosity about that mysterious teacher only grew stronger.
Taking one last look at his home, and thinking that he would probably have to spend the rest of his time at Blue Tyrant Academy, Liu Erlong felt a little melancholy.
But then I thought, since Blue Tyrant Academy isn't far from home, I can come back anytime I want, and I felt a little relieved.
She glanced at Ye Qifeng and Ruiwen beside her, and her mood suddenly brightened considerably. A smile finally returned to her bright and cheerful face.
"Let's go to the academy."
Not long after.
The three of them left the courtyard, locked the iron gate, and headed west towards the location of Blue Tyrant Academy.
A few minutes later.
Suddenly, a burly figure walked over from the east.
The burly figure walked with an odd gait, limping, and occasionally covered his buttocks. From a distance, an outsider might think he had suffered some inhuman treatment.
The burly figure looked quite old; one could vaguely discern that he was a middle-aged man around forty years old.
The middle-aged man had a peculiar face: a thick beard, broad cheekbones, a flat face, a hooked nose, and a protruding chin, resembling a hairy shoehorn.
This person is none other than Flander, the dean of Shrek Academy, also known as "Four-Eyed Cat-Owl".
At this moment, Flander looked truly miserable.
His clothes were tattered and torn; his brown robe was torn into strips and hung on his body, swaying back and forth; his gray-black trousers were also somewhat tattered.
Especially around the buttocks, three long, neatly arranged slits appeared as if they had been cut by some kind of sharp instrument.
Inside, on the white flesh, there were three horrific lacerations. Although they had scabbed over, traces of blood were still seeping out.
In addition, his hair was messy, clumped together, and looked like it hadn't been washed for at least a month.
He reeked of a foul, sour odor.
As I walked along the road, pedestrians covered their noses and fled wherever I went.
At this moment, Flander had completely lost his previous high spirits. The cunning smile on his face was gone, and the strange and shrewd businessman's aura had vanished. In its place was a look of utter dejection and confusion.
Those stiff, square-framed, black-rimmed crystal glasses drooped listlessly on the bridge of his nose.
Originally, Flander came to Heaven Dou City to buy some goods specifically for Soul Masters to resell, in order to earn some funds for Shrek Academy.
But halfway there, he suddenly heard news of Liu Erlong, whom he hadn't seen for many years. He learned that she was wreaking havoc in the Sunset Forest, slaughtering soul beasts. Terrified, he hurriedly flew to the Sunset Forest.
Although they hadn't seen each other for many years, Flander had always been concerned about Liu Erlong's condition and was well aware of it.
Since the wedding tragedy more than ten years ago, Liu Erlong has been in a bad state. Due to the immense pain, she often needs to relieve it through killing, which has made her addicted to killing and out of control.
If it's just killing some petty scoundrels, it's not a big deal.
But it's a different story when you're slaughtering soul beasts in Sunset Forest.
Sunset Forest, what place is that?
That place is a gathering place for soul beasts, a cradle of soul beasts, teeming with soul beasts and fraught with danger. Moreover, deep within the Sunset Forest, there exist soul beast kings like those that are 100,000 years old.
Slaughtering soul beasts there is no different from courting death; even titled Douluo wouldn't dare to do such a thing easily.
Moreover, Liu Erlong is only a Soul Saint. If he were to slaughter soul beasts in Sunset Forest, he would surely run into trouble and be in mortal danger.
So after receiving the news.
Flander then flew directly to Sunset Forest, intending to rescue Liu Erlong.
however.
By the time he arrived at the scene, it was already too late.
Both sides of the battle had long since disappeared, leaving only some traces of the fight and fragments of Liu Erlong's clothing at the scene.
Later, following the trail, he found the opponent who had fought Liu Erlong, a 40,000-year-old scaled beast.
But unfortunately.
He couldn't defeat that scaly behemoth.
Flander's martial soul is just a high-level martial soul, the Cat-Owl. It is very fast and has the ability to fly, but its attack power is not strong.
Fighting that 40,000-year-old scaled behemoth, his attack power was only enough to tickle it; he couldn't possibly defeat it.
He was struck hard on the buttocks by the scaly beast, but fortunately he escaped thanks to his ability to fly.
However, this also caused him to bleed profusely the whole way.
Fortunately, Flander encountered a relatively kind-hearted Soul Hunter team in Sunset Forest, which included a healing-type Soul Master.
After paying several dozen gold soul coins, he asked the healing-type soul master to heal the injury on his buttocks.
Although he was clawed on the buttocks, Flander deduced from the scaled behemoth that Liu Erlong had not died at its hands, but was probably seriously injured and perhaps hiding somewhere to heal.
We need to find her as soon as possible, otherwise her life will also be in danger.
So Flander returned to the area where Liu Erlong had slaughtered the soul beasts and fought the scaled giant beast.
Based on the remaining clues, it took more than half a month to finally track down the cave where Ye Qifeng had treated Liu Erlong's injuries.
However, because Yu Luomian intervened, all the remaining traces in the cave were destroyed and the evidence was wiped out.
When Flanders arrived there, the cave had already partially collapsed, leaving only ruins.
Therefore, he did not know that Liu Erlong had been rescued.
Flander then spent another half month searching in Sunset Forest, but still found no clues about Liu Erlong's whereabouts.
Feeling anxious and helpless, he turned his attention back to the 40,000-year-old scaled beast, hoping to learn more about Liu Erlong.
Not long after, Flander found the scaled behemoth again deep in the Sunset Forest.
However, the scaled behemoth didn't give him a chance to speak at all; the moment it saw him, it launched an attack.
Despite being on guard and trying his best to dodge, Flander still took several blows. Not only was his robe torn into strips, but his buttocks were also clawed again, leaving them bruised and battered, just like last time.
Perhaps because of the previous surprise attack, the scaled behemoth held a grudge against him, chasing him all the way until he escaped into the depths of the forest before letting him go.
At this point, Flanders finally despaired completely.
As of now, he has no idea whether Liu Erlong is alive or dead.
But all signs indicate that his second sister is likely dead, and not just dead, but dead without a complete corpse.
Splattered with blood, Flander, his face filled with despair and regret, flew away from Sunset Forest and rushed to Heavenly Dou City.
After entering Tiandou City, he forgot to treat his injuries and limped over to Liu Erlong's home in the western part of Tiandou City, hoping for a miracle and that Liu Erlong had returned home safely.
Unfortunately,
Just minutes ago, Liu Erlong had moved out of here and moved to the Blue Tyrant Academy that she founded.
It seems that I won't be able to go home for quite some time now.
After all, she still had a lot to do with the affairs of Blue Tyrant Academy.
Standing outside the iron gate, Flander quickly climbed forward and peered through the bars, hoping to catch a glimpse of the beautiful figure he admired once more.
Unfortunately, it was empty.
The main hall doors were locked, and the courtyard was deserted, as if no one had lived there for a long time.
If Flanders were bold enough to scale the wall and leap into the courtyard, he would surely find clues that someone had lived there not long ago; at the very least, the traces left by the recent relocation of the green plants and flowers would be quite obvious.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the courage.
oh~~
After peering through the iron gate for a long time, Flander sighed deeply and pulled himself off the gate.
He couldn't help but wonder if things would have turned out differently if he hadn't chosen to quit back then and had tried harder.
Perhaps Erlong wouldn't have been hurt so deeply by that bastard Xiaogang, perhaps Erlong wouldn't have been so depressed, perhaps Erlong wouldn't have been so consumed by killing, perhaps he wouldn't have died.
Unfortunately.
It was all too late.
Much later.
Flander clutched his backside, swayed, and walked away.
His once robust body suddenly became somewhat hunched, filled with loneliness, as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant.
A crystal drop slid down in the morning light, hitting the blue bricks of the street and shattering into a tiny flower.
After a moment, Flander paused, then straightened up again.
Those who are alive must keep looking forward.
He still has things to do; Shrek Academy is waiting for his funding.
Soon, he forced a smile, and finally managed to reappear with that cunning grin.
At this time, Flander was unaware that, in fact, half a month earlier, a letter had been sent from Tiandou City to Soto City, to Shrek Academy on the outskirts of Soto City, and onto his dean's desk.
That was written to him by Liu Erlong.
Attached to the letter was an invitation to come to Tiandou City to attend the unveiling ceremony of the Blue Tyrant Academy.
Unfortunately, Flander didn't see it and missed the unveiling ceremony of Blue Tyrant Academy.
Perhaps he'll be overjoyed when he gets back and sees it.
Following the unveiling ceremony of Blue Tyrant Academy, it was officially established.
Although it's not officially the start of the school year yet.
However, in the following three days, some of the students enrolled in the first batch of the academy couldn't wait to register ahead of schedule and pay a year's tuition, as if they were worried that Blue Tyrant Academy would change its mind and not enroll them.
This left Dean Liu Erlong and several teachers at a loss for words, neither laughing nor crying.
But there was no way to refuse them; the students and parents were too enthusiastic.
So we let them enroll early.
These students who enrolled early were almost all students who had graduated from the intermediate soul master academy a long time ago.
For example, Tailong, Jingling, and Huang Yuan.
Of course, there was also a student who graduated early from the intermediate soul master academy.
That was Jiangzhu, the healing-type Soul Master whose Martial Soul was a weapon-type Martial Soul and a healing scepter.
The Soul Master Academies in Douluo Continent are generally not too strict in their management. As long as students meet the graduation requirements, they can apply for graduation at any time.
Of course, you must pass the assessment.
Logically, the official enrollment time for Blue Tyrant Academy is four months from now.
Because the annual graduation season for intermediate soul master academies is still about a month away, there is a three-month vacation in between, which allows soul master students to rest while also giving advanced soul master academies time to recruit students.
As Blue Tyrant Academy is a newly established academy for commoners, it recruits commoner students who are not accepted by aristocratic academies.
Young commoner soul masters who were unable to attend advanced soul master academies in previous years suddenly had the opportunity to study, so naturally they wouldn't let it pass.
So they hurriedly enrolled in school ahead of schedule.
Blue Tyrant Academy couldn't just ignore these students who enrolled early, especially since they had already paid their tuition.
Blue Tyrant Academy should at least live up to the tuition fees they pay by teaching them martial spirit theory, combat skills, and how to use the simulated training environment, etc.
Otherwise, if we let them figure it out on their own, who knows what kind of big trouble they might cause.
Besides.
These students also need to be made aware of the rules of Blue Tyrant Academy, and understand what they can and cannot do.
To discuss this matter, Liu Erlong, along with Ye Qifeng and the academy's teachers, held a meeting.
After discussing it together, everyone prepared to start the course.
The first lesson was originally supposed to be taught by Dean Liu Erlong himself.
After all, it is of great significance.
But during the meeting, Liu Erlong suddenly curled her lips into a smile, a sly glint in her beautiful eyes, and with a wave of her hand, handed the task over to Ye Qifeng, who was lost in thought.
Liu Erlong had already witnessed Ye Qifeng's knowledge and abilities.
Every night, when Qi Feng imparted martial spirit and cultivation knowledge to Ruiwen, she would watch from the side.
Then she was shocked by Ye Qifeng.
Much of the knowledge that Ye Qifeng imparted to Raven was something she had never heard of or seen before.
For example, the detailed classification and grading of martial souls, special martial souls and talent domains, detailed explanations of innate soul power levels and talents, soul rings, soul beasts and soul bones, etc., much knowledge beyond her comprehension left her utterly astonished.
She was stunned.
Liu Erlong dared to say that everyone present, including herself, even if they racked their brains, could not compare to Ye Qifeng.
Because Ye Qifeng was the most knowledgeable about martial spirits among all the people she had ever met, even surpassing that man from back then.
The other teachers didn't quite understand Dean Liu Erlong's decision to have Ye Qifeng teach the classes.
But when you think about how this boy, who doesn't talk much at meetings, is a major shareholder of Blue Tyrant Academy, the rightful vice dean, and the dean's younger brother.
To be honest, before the students enrolled, the teachers' salaries were paid by this vice dean.
These are our providers; we shouldn't offend them.
It's just a class. Let him make a fuss. If anything really happens, the dean, who is at the Soul Saint level, will cover for him. They don't need to worry about it.
If any bad habits or behaviors emerge in the classroom, they can take care of it and correct them.
Thinking of this, the teachers fell silent.
Ye Qifeng originally wanted to refuse.
But after seeing Liu Erlong's affectionate and pleading gaze, he had no choice but to take a deep breath and agree.
that's it.
With Liu Erlong's encouragement.
Ye Qifeng became the instructor for the first class at Blue Tyrant Academy.
