Chapter 1083: Chapter 1082: Eight Coffins
After the remaining students were thrown out of Qinghe Academy, Zhao Jun immediately ran to the dean’s office to report the current situation at the school.
Currently, there were only a little more than seventy students left in the lower-grade classes, fewer than those in the upper-grade classes. According to convention, these students could now be directly promoted to the upper-grade classes, just waiting for the official notice from the school.
The dean appeared the same as always, but when Zhao Jun saw him again, he didn’t dare show any negligence. It was known that during the previous battle between Su Yang and the Fang Family at the school gate, the dean had shown up with several teachers, creating a rather shocking scene.
Previously, the students at school didn’t really take the dean seriously because fighting among themselves was a common occurrence there. Moreover, everyone was competing with each other; without fighting, how could anyone remain until the end? So, in everyone’s eyes, the position of the dean was merely a formality, with no one truly considering it significant.
But now, it was different; now everyone knew that none of the teachers at the school were simple, except for those two old lamps, Yuan Tiangang and Wu Daozi. Some even suspected that those two characters, Yuan Tiangang and Wu Daozi, were significant figures in the game of life.
However, considering the past actions of these two old lamps, and their desperate attempts to flee from debt collectors outside the school, getting trapped in an alley and beaten up, the image of these two old lamps once again plummeted in everyone’s hearts.
Thus, a common feeling arose among the people: all teachers in this school were not simple, with the exception of those two old lamps!
Wu Daozi and Yuan Tiangang were clearly muddling through in the school. Otherwise, why would they teach such obscure subjects and still have no one come to study with them?
After listening to Zhao Jun’s report, the dean nodded slowly, "I understand, I will report this to the school. Continue with your classes."
"Alright!" Zhao Jun respectfully backed away, not daring to say an extra word.
If it had been before, he would have certainly said, "With only a little more than seventy students left in the lower-grade classes, what classes are there to attend? One or two students per class?"
After Zhao Jun left the dean’s office, the dean himself got up and left the dean’s office. He walked alone through the school, crossed the dormitory area, and reached the back of the teacher’s building.
Entering the teacher’s building, the dean didn’t go upstairs but went straight into the basement.
The basement was dark, and hardly anyone ventured there.
The dean followed the corridor of the basement all the way to the back room.
The door was locked, and the dean unlocked it and walked in. Inside, the room was even darker, filled with a lot of old equipment that made it look like a warehouse.
The dean walked all the way to the end of this room. He lightly touched the white wall, and immediately, a hole appeared in the floor. The dean jumped into the hole, and it quickly closed behind him, as if it had never existed.
The dean fell for dozens of meters and finally landed on the ground.
Below was a spacious stone chamber, and the dean now stood in the middle of this chamber. Around the chamber stood eight sealed coffins.
The dean scanned the coffins, sighed softly, and said in a low voice, "Everyone, the war in the heavens is not yet over, but Qinghe Academy has encountered an unprecedented problem, and I cannot decide alone. Thus, I must disturb you, the Heroic Spirits, and ask for your help in making a decision."
After saying this, the dean bowed deeply and quietly awaited a response.
After a long time, one of the coffins suddenly made a slight clicking sound. Following that, the other seven coffins also made similar sounds.
The dean couldn’t help but rejoice and said respectfully, "Thank you all!"
When he raised his head, the lids of all eight coffins had slowly opened. No one stepped out, but the coffins shone with bursts of light, as if responding to the dean.
The dean did not linger. He took a deep breath and quickly recounted the current situation at Qinghe Academy again. After finishing, he said in a low voice, "Since the establishment of Qinghe Academy, the lower-grade classes have experienced various situations, but never one like this. Starting less than two months into the school year, only a little more than seventy students were left. You know, the lower-grade classes are called so because they encompass ordinary people, and such special situations have never occurred. Truly powerful individuals are usually picked out by those people and get advanced into the upper-grade classes early, becoming specially recruited students, and they do not enter the lower-grade classes. Even if a truly powerful person enters the lower-grade class, they would be picked out early and sent to the upper-grade classes. Thus, such a situation has never occurred before, and for the time being, I do not know how to decide!"
After saying this, the dean bowed again.
The light in the eight coffins slowly shone, as if contemplating the situation described by the dean.
After a while, a voice came from one of the coffins, "Why has this person not been selected..."
The words were spoken haltingly, as if gathering significant strength to speak.
The dean quickly replied, "In recent times, it has been the time of the heavenly war, and most of our people went to participate in that. I was planning to discuss this matter with them after their return. However, I didn’t expect Su Yang to act so swiftly..."
The light in the eight coffins shone again, and after waiting a while, the dean couldn’t help but say in a low voice, "We have lost seven times already to those people in our bets. The matters of the heavenly war, those people have been perfunctory, and our battles have become more and more difficult. If it continues like this, we might really not be able to hold on. We really need a victory to help stabilize the situation. Over three thousand people were disrupted by Su Yang, leaving only a little more than seventy, without going through our selection. How many can be picked out from these seventy?"
After saying this, the dean paused for a moment, somewhat hesitantly adding, "Shall we recruit students again?"
"No!" This time, a decisive answer came from one of the coffins.
The lights in the other seven coffins also flickered, seemingly still contemplating the matter.
"But if we lose again this time..." the dean said embarrassingly.
"Lose if we must, but as people, we must keep our word!" came the intermittent answer from the coffin; "Do not give those people something to talk about!"
