Chapter 2925 Moving Out to the Inner Academy

The Unfettered Alliance had obtained victory in the divine compet.i.tion. Hence, all of them had become inner academy disciples, and today was the day to check in.

The check-in time was noon, but Mu Qingyun and the others were so excited that they were ready as soon as the sun rose. However, when Long Chen didnt show up, Mu Qingyun went over to his house with Zhong Ling and Zhong Xiu.

Long Chen silently recalled Huo Long. He was still sleepy and could barely open his eyes.

His final exchange against Chu Kuang seemed to have severely exhausted something within his body. It could only be replenished through sleep.

However, today was the day to check in, so he had no choice but to get up. Zhong Ling and Zhong Xiu giggled and washed his face with water to get him awake, making him feel pampered.

Brother San, you really are amazing. Even that monster Chu Kuang was killed by you, said Mu Qingyun wors.h.i.+pfully.

Even though she hadnt fully witnessed his final battle with Chu Kuang, she had learned the details from other people. Chu Kuangs trump cards had come out one after another, but he had still been defeated. That battle had practically shaken heavens and earth.

However, Long Chen shook his head. Chu Kuangs power wasnt his own; it all came from somewhere else. He wasnt able to control it, so defeating him is only natural.

Hehe, I really like that att.i.tude, unlike those so-called geniuses that start prancing like a peac.o.c.k after the tiniest accomplishments, said Zhong Ling. There were practically stars of wors.h.i.+p in her eyes when she looked at Long Chen. In the entire academy, Long Chens name was practically known to all. This generations Human tier compet.i.tion of the G.o.d Inst.i.tute could be said to be the grandest of all history.

The three heads of the Discipline Inst.i.tute had come, and the inst.i.tute head of the Immortal Inst.i.tute had personally descended. Because of it, Long Chens fame soared.

Having fought alongside him, they also felt extremely proud. Even now, they were unable to settle their emotions. Long Chen had slept for three days, but they were so excited for three days that they hadnt even been able to sleep. In truth, they hadnt even fully recovered their physical energy from how excited they were.

Long Chen smiled. A full bottle doesnt make noise, but a half-full one rattles when shaken. Mature weather bends, but withered wheat stands tall. The ones with no ability are those that try to stand out the most.

Long Chen took out his robes. In the last battle, the final attack had blasted apart his sleeve. After that, he had picked up the sc.r.a.ps and now began to sew them back together.

With his shoddy workmans.h.i.+p, the tears were not well hidden at all. It was uneven and rather ugly.

Mu Qingyun knew how important these robes were to Long Chen and said, Brother San, I can help you sew them back together. I didnt really study those arts, but I have sewn a bit as a child. I should be able to sew them back together better and make it more comfortable to wear.

No, I want to do it myself. The work being ugly doesnt matter to me. Its not like Im looking for anyone to like how I look. Long Chen smiled.

Mu Qingyun couldnt help feeling slightly disappointed. Clearly, Long Chen didnt want others to touch these robes. Perhaps this was also another covert kind of rejection.

However, he had said that he viewed her like a little sister. Although she felt a bit bad, she quickly settled those feelings.

Brother San, you said that these robes were made by your loved ones. What did you mean by ones? asked Zhong Xiu with a giggle.

Long Chen also laughed. No need to be so indirect. You can ask me just how many sister-in-laws youll have. I can tell you.

I just knew that a hero like brother San would have multiple wives. Thats the only way to match you, said Zhong Ling.

Long Chen shook his head. Youre still children. Real love isnt wanting to be with someone because they look beautiful. Thats just liking someone, or more accurately, liking their looks. When you love someone, you dont need to just like their beautiful side, but you also have to embrace all their faults. Many times love requires giving far more than you get. Thats why the fruit of love is oftentimes more bitter than sweet.

What? Why? If love is more bitter than sweet, who would want it? asked Zhong Ling.

Because just that bit of sweetness in the bitterness is enough to fully satisfy someone. A person can be wounded ninety-nine times, but on the hundredth time, when their loved ones hand brushes past their cheek, that warmth is enough to settle all the pain in their heart and make it worth it. Rather than saying that love is a bitter fruit, it might be better to say its poison with no cure. Despite knowing its poison, you will still swallow it in one gulp with no regrets, said Long Chen, brus.h.i.+ng his sleeve with his hand.

Looking at these robes, he thought of Meng Qi, Chu Yao, Tang Wan-er, Ye Zhiqiu, Dong Mingyu, Yue Xiaoqian, Zi Yan, as well as Leng Yueyan and Ming Cangyue in the Netherworld. He also thought of Yu Qingxuan who may or may not have reincarnated in an unknown location.

He didnt know where in the immortal world they were. The compet.i.tion within the immortal world was even tougher than on the Martial Heaven Continent. He didnt know if they were doing well.

He also thought of his brothers in the Dragonblood Legion. They had all been sent throughout the immortal world by the dragon race expert. He didnt know if they had managed to grasp their own opportunities.

Long Chen wished to gather everyone immediately, but he also knew that it wasnt realistic. He couldnt possibly find them. In a place as vast as the immortal world, searching for them was like scouring the sea for tiny needles.

The only thing he could do was raise his fame to the point that the name of Boss Long San resounded throughout the entire immortal world. Once the Dragonblood warriors heard this news of him, they would definitely gather toward him.

Now, he had managed to take one small step in that direction. His name was now known throughout the entire outer academy. It was time to enter the inner academy, and through the High Firmament Academy, he would create a resounding name for himself.

Eventually, his name would spread far and wide, and the Dragonblood warriors would come to him one by one. Thinking of how he could be by the side of those brothers who had fought alongside him, he felt his blood heating up.

Long Chen quickly finished the sewing. It was definitely ugly, but he didnt mind. As long as it was together, it was fine. He didnt care what others thought about it.

After making himself presentable, even his damaged robes werent able to conceal his handsome air. Mu Qingyun and the others eyes shone. The current Long Chen appeared even more powerful than before.

When he walked out, he saw that the Unfettered Alliances disciples were already waiting.

Boss San!

Li Cai had fully recovered and led everyone in a cheer when they saw Long Chen. Through this battle, this group of youth soldiers had become true experts.

Lets go. I heard that the compet.i.tion is even more intense in the inner academy, right? I want to see if theres anyone even more arrogant than Chu Kuang in the Earth tier divine rankings. Long Chen led everyone toward the inner academy in high spirits.
