347: Something must be wrong with this world...

“They’re here.”

A middle-aged male Professor had just finished speaking.

Several dark figures plummeted from the sky, smashing straight down in front of everyone, kicking up dust and surging airwaves.

After Qin Nansun and the others blocked the oncoming airwaves, they fixed their gaze forward.

“Apologies for the wait.”

Several figures came into view from behind the dust.

Two men and three women. Three of them wore the Shenwu Academy school uniform, while the other man and woman were dressed differently.

Whoosh—

The wind blew, and the dust cleared.

Revealing the clear faces of the five people.

Whether it was the handsome and tall Sikong, or Yan Runan whose eyes were covered by black silk and whose dreamy blue hair fluttered behind her head, or Professor Song Yun, who sat on an oversized wine gourd, was short and slender, with white hair and the appearance of a young girl.

Their extraordinary looks and presence caused all the students from Kunlun Academy present to momentarily freeze.

And what made it almost impossible to look away was the man and woman in the center.

The woman's black hair cascaded down to her waist. Her skin was like ice and bone like jade, cool and otherworldly like an immortal. Standing there, she seemed to glow all over.

The man was even more imposing and well-built, with black hair and heterochromatic eyes, and a handsome appearance, as if possessing an invisible magic that drew others' gazes.

He wore large black-rimmed glasses and dressed simply and casually. He lacked the imposing and sharp Aura of the other four, instead resembling a classical literature student accompanying them on a visit.

But he stood in the middle of the five.

And everyone's gaze unconsciously fell upon him.

As if he only needed to stand there.

That place would be the center of the world…

“Welcome everyone to our visit, I am Kunlun Academy’s Vice Dean, Yun Jiu Lan, Vice President,”

Yun Jiu Lan, Vice President took a step forward, looked at Professor Song Yun, and smiled, “You must be the person in charge accompanying the National War this time, correct? And these few…”

“No, I am not.” Professor Song Yun waved her hand.

Yun Jiu Lan, Vice President was taken aback.

In her opinion, among the few, only Professor Song Yun's Aura was unfathomable, suspected to be a King-level Martial Artist above the ninth rank, and possibly a powerful mental type.

But she wasn't the person in charge?!

Then who was it…

“H-how is this possible…”

A student heard a trembling voice and looked at his side in confusion, finding that Qin Nansun's eyes were wide, his pupils contracted, and his body was trembling and shaking, as if he had seen a ghost. He stared ahead in disbelief, constantly muttering:

“How is this possible…”

“How could it be him…”

“He’s really still alive…”

“How could he possibly still be alive?!”

Xia Qinghou next to him was the same, his expression filled with shock and disbelief.

“What’s wrong with you?”

The male student wearing the Kunlun Academy uniform followed their gaze and saw the heterochromatic-eyed young man standing in the middle of the group, and the cool, immortal-like young woman beside him.

Jiang Yuan instantly spotted Chen Xi in the crowd at this moment, his eyes slightly narrowed, seeing through his talent and strength.

“He should be the participant sent by Kunlun Academy, a sixth-rank Martial Artist, not bad talent…”

“Look over there.”

Lin Qingyan nudged Jiang Yuan with her elbow.

Jiang Yuan shifted his gaze from Chen Xi and saw the two 'familiar faces'.

A hint of surprise flashed across his face, followed by a smile of interest.

“What a coincidence, to meet old classmates in a place like this.”

Qin Nansun and Xia Qinghou's bodies trembled upon hearing this.

At this moment, Professor Song Yun also pointed at Jiang Yuan and said to Yun Jiu Lan, Vice President, “I’m just here to make up the numbers; this guy is the one in charge.”

Yun Jiu Lan, Vice President was stunned upon hearing this, not reacting.

It took her several seconds.

Only then did she come back to her senses and look at Jiang Yuan, her expression somewhat stiff, looking like 'you're not kidding me, are you'.

“The person in charge… you mean the person leading the National War… is this gentleman?”

It wasn't just her who found it hard to believe.

The two middle-aged Professors, as well as the Kunlun Academy prodigies including Chen Xi, were all filled with disbelief.

Chen Xi even frowned and looked at Jiang Yuan again.

But no matter what, he couldn't see through him at all.

This made his expression increasingly serious.

He had thought the other party was the weakest of the five, but he never expected him to be the person in charge!

“How is this possible!!”

Qin Nansun's mouth gaped open, his jaw nearly hitting the ground.

“He… is the person in charge?”

“You must be kidding…”

“He looks clearly about the same age as a freshman.”

“Could it be that some important figure has reverted to youth?” a girl speculated.

“No, it’s not.” Xia Qinghou shook his head, looking at Jiang Yuan with an incredibly complex gaze, and said with a bitter smile, “He and that black-haired woman… are schoolmates from the same year as me.”

The girl's eyes instantly widened upon hearing this.

Chen Xi was also full of shock.

Professor Song Yun spread her hands to Yun Jiu Lan, Vice President and said:

“I know you're surprised, but it's true. Although he looks very young, extremely young, and is indeed quite young, his strength is beyond doubt.”

“After all, he was also unanimously elected by our school's Professor meeting and is a Professor of the Sword Dao Department recognized by Elder Feng.”

“Serving as the person in charge of the National War is well-deserved.”

As soon as these words were spoken.

Yun Jiu Lan, Vice President stood frozen on the spot.

The entire place was silent.

After a long time, someone muttered to themselves, making a sound like a dream.

“The same year as Junior Brother Xia… Shenwu Academy Sword Dao Department Professor…”

“Am I dreaming, or has this world gone mad?!”

Qin Nansun was completely stunned.

“Shenwu Academy’s… Sword Dao Department Professor?!”

He couldn't believe it, and he couldn't accept it.

The guy who was once in the same school, the one he never took seriously, but who exploded as a dark horse time and time again, and who should have died…

Not only did he not die, but in such a short time, he had already reached a height he couldn't see even if he craned his neck!

Jiang Yuan's gaze swept over everyone.

Everyone, including Chen Xi and the two middle-aged male and female Professors, inexplicably held their breath and became involuntarily nervous.

“No need to be nervous, I'm not strict.”

“Let me introduce myself again, my name is Jiang Yuan, and I am the person in charge of the National War.”

Jiang Yuan smiled and stepped in front of the students, looking down at Chen Xi, who was a head shorter than him, and said, “You must be the participant from Kunlun Academy, right? What's your name?”

“Chen Xi.”

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, then shifted his gaze and walked in front of Qin Nansun and the other, who were still in shock.

“Haven't seen you in half a year. So you came to Kunlun Academy. You're already fourth-rank Martial Artists, truly worthy of being the top two geniuses of Nanjing No. 1 Middle School back then.”

“How is your grandfather? He took good care of me back then.”

Jiang Yuan was referring to Qin Nantian, the former Guild Leader of the South River City Martial Artist Guild.

“……”

Qin Nansun moved his lips but was unable to say a word for a long time.

Only one thought was in his mind.

Something in this world must be wrong…
