85: Dean Shi's Arrangements

The Space Magic Formation.

Rat's aged face was full of wrinkles, and he nodded repeatedly as he listened to Rabbit's words.

Moreover, the smile on his face became increasingly unrestrained.

It seemed... he was listening to something very pleasant right now.

"Not bad... not bad. To be favored by the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa at such a young age, it seems he truly possesses certain exceptional qualities!"

"Coupled with that unpredictable fate and the anomalies appearing in the Abyss, this little fellow seems to hold many secrets..."

Everyone felt a bit confused hearing Rat lavish such praise on Su Feng.

After all, in the past century, they had rarely heard Rat praise a junior like this!

This was quite rare!

What's more, that was a Seventh-Tier Magical Beast!

A long boa with Sub-dragon bloodline.

If its bloodline awakened in the future, it might even transform into a True Dragon.

Its value is immeasurable!

Now that it had been taken away just like that, who would fill the void on the Road of Conquest... and who would compensate for this loss?

"What are your opinions?"

Rat's body, which had been hunched over, had straightened up considerably in the past two days.

Everyone exchanged glances.

"Rat, the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa was stolen. Although Dragon Abyss Academy hasn't sent any news yet, paper ultimately can't wrap fire..."

"We will eventually have to provide an explanation. This..."

The honest voice of Boar rang out, his somewhat plump body trembling slightly.

"An explanation?"

Rat's grin widened even further now.

"What is there to explain?"

"We and Dragon Abyss Academy share the same origins. Speaking of which... I, this old man, am also one of the academy's founders!"

"Besides, that little fellow is a student of Dragon Abyss Academy. Giving him a Seventh-Tier Magical Beast as an assistant isn't too excessive, is it?"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Your favoritism is truly excessive!

That is the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa!

It's not comparable to an ordinary Seventh-Tier Magical Beast!

If its bloodline continues to evolve, its future combat power will be immeasurable.

Now that it has been taken away, you aren't worried at all.

"Do you think... the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa lost out?"

Rat shook his head.

These young ones are still too naive!

"Once magical beasts gain intelligence, they are no worse than humans, especially those with Sub-dragon bloodlines—they are extremely shrewd!"

"Furthermore, their standards are extremely high. Do you think just anyone can take them away?"

Rat looked toward Rabbit.

"I remember... one of your students was like that. Although he cleared the Road of Conquest, he used a trick and did not receive true recognition..."

"The rarer the magical beast's bloodline, the more it values dignity!"

Rat coughed twice and continued, "If you haven't conquered them, they would rather die than submit!"

Hearing this, the expressions on everyone's faces were varied and colorful.

So, a young fellow who had just completed his class change less than ten days ago received the recognition of the Seventh-Tier Magical Beast, the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa?!

Are you kidding me?!

But if that weren't the case, the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa truly was taken away by someone!

"This matter is settled. Send word to Murong Yuan of Dragon Abyss Academy: drop the issue immediately!"

"If they want to pursue any responsibility, they can come find this old man!"

...Dragon Abyss Academy.

Dean's Office.

Observing the still shaken Xing Wushuang, a faint smile appeared on Murong Yuan's lips.

He hadn't expected Xing Wushuang, who usually advocated for being "tempered into steel and exceptionally calm," to show such an expression today.

What a contrast!

"Wushuang! I already know about the Trial Tower incident. The Gao Family has contacted me and said they are willing to subsidize 3,000,000,000 dragon coins for the repairs. Dragon Abyss Academy can cover the rest!"

Xing Wushuang's expression was stunned.

Dean, that's not what I wanted to talk about!

It's the snake!

The snake is gone!

"Dean, that... I..."

Murong Yuan frowned slightly. What was wrong with Xing Wushuang today?!

So hesitant!

Is this appropriate?!

"Just say what you need to say. Panicking like this... how are you supposed to set an example for the students below?!"

Xing Wushuang wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up straight, and took a deep breath: "Dean, the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa is gone!"

"What?!"

Murong Yuan nearly spat out the tea he had just swallowed.

"I said... the Crim-son Gold Sub-Dra-gon Boa is missing!"

Xing Wushuang spoke unusually loudly this time, his powerful voice echoing continuously within the confined space.

Murong Yuan immediately sat up straight.

That Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa was personally captured by the Founding Dean!

Up until now, it had become the symbol of the Road of Conquest!

Losing it at a time like this—wouldn't that be letting down the Founding Dean?!

This... is trouble!

"What else do you know?"

"Tell me all the clues you have!"

Stared at by Murong Yuan in this state, Xing Wushuang felt cold sweat breaking out all over his body.

Although this Dean was also a Seventh Turn like him, their strength differed vastly!

This Dean's awakened talent was unique; he deliberately stayed at the Seventh Turn to wait for his talent to fully develop, but his actual combat power was already comparable to some powerhouses in the early Eighth Turn!

It could be called truly terrifying!

Xing Wushuang recounted all the details of his entry into the Road of Conquest, trying his best not to miss a single detail.

But halfway through his explanation, he was interrupted by Murong Yuan.

And then he was told to leave. This... was unbelievable!

However, he couldn't say anything against it.

Murong Yuan looked at Han Xueyuan, who was slowly revealing her figure from within the room, and his eyes softened considerably.

After all, Han Xueyuan's name was also extremely famous in the former Dragon Abyss Academy.

During another International Hegemony Secret Realm, she led a team to defeat hundreds of powerhouses, allowing Dragon Country to obtain ownership of that Secret Realm.

After Han Xueyuan finished speaking, her figure disappeared again.

"So all of this was the Founding Dean's arrangement!"

Murong Yuan looked at the constantly spinning Star Light Sphere in front of him and couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

"Since that is the case, we can just arrange for another Seventh-Tier Magical Beast in the Road of Conquest!"

"Although it might be slightly different from the Crimson Gold Sub-Dragon Boa, this is the most secure method right now!"

Magic power flowed in Murong Yuan's hand, carving a segment of an incantation onto the Star Light Sphere. Immediately after, the characters disappeared into it without a trace.

"Su Feng... this little fellow is quite interesting."

"Neither the Trial Tower nor the Road of Conquest could stop him. If he grows up, he will likely become a great power guarding a region of Dragon Country!"

"I will help you keep this matter concealed."

Murong Yuan picked up the hot tea in front of him and took another sip.

"I didn't expect him to have already gained the Founding Dean's attention. Speaking of which... it's been nearly three hundred years since I last saw the Founding Dean."
