Chapter 457: One-Eyed Man Feels Particularly Hurt

Li Guofeng has been frantic lately.

He has invested heavily in the construction of the Alliance Academy. The current academy has a basic framework; it only needs to be rearranged. A large number of workers have poured in, starting a comprehensive renovation.

The speed is fast.

At this rate, it won't be long before the Alliance Academy is officially established.

Many interstellar races have already joined Li Guofeng's team. The team they formed is responsible for the operation of the Alliance Academy. Li Guofeng proposed that the interstellar races provide cultivation methods and professional teaching teams.

For the interstellar races, these are just minor issues.

They wouldn't offer profound cultivation methods; providing the most basic ones is enough. Humans are inherently weak, so what's the point of nurturing them? Their greatest use is mining.

At his residence, Wu Sheng's expression was grave.

"Young Master, the clan has arranged for your return," Wu Xingyun reported. He knew that the clan must be aware of the situation. He understood the Young Master's actions, but the clan might not.

"I'm not going back," Wu Sheng said.

Wu Xingyun worriedly said, "Young Master, this will incur the clan's displeasure. It won't benefit you in any way."

Wu Sheng's temper was rather fiery. "Mind your own business. I've made myself clear. I'm not going back. Just tell the clan they won't find me. They can send whoever they want, but it's best they don't get involved in the Alliance Academy."

This was the conclusion he reached after a period of observation.

This matter is not right.

He should maintain a good relationship with Lin Fan.

Wu Xingyun thought the Young Master was daydreaming. The clan was angry precisely because of this matter. Other major races were participating in the establishment of the Alliance Academy. How could such a good opportunity not include the Wu Clan?

Among the interstellar races that have appeared, besides the Dragon God, Mo Wu and Long Yuan are the strongest.

They have all been taught a lesson by Lin Fan.

Especially Mo Wu, who harbors resentment towards Lin Fan. A Saint Realm expert like him should be treated like a celestial being on this planet, yet not only has he not received such treatment, but he has also suffered hardships.

It's truly unpleasant.

Long Yuan wanted to participate in the Alliance Academy.

However, the Dragon God didn't allow it. He forbade the Dragon Clan from getting involved in the Alliance Academy's affairs. The Dragon God had long placed Lin Fan on equal footing with himself, as a peak interstellar expert with extremely high status. What puzzled the Dragon God was why Lin Fan hadn't taken control of this planet, despite being so powerful.

This would be impossible for any major interstellar race.

The unity of a clan relies on an ancestor with overwhelming strength suppressing everything. With a clear hierarchy, a situation like Lin Fan's could never occur.

September 27th!

Morning.

The first day of the Alliance Academy.

Countless people appeared at the entrance of the Alliance Academy, full of anticipation.

There were men and women, old and young, and even some with fierce appearances.

The Four Great Academies and the smaller academies have strict admission requirements: students must have clean backgrounds, as their future role is to protect humanity and fight against evil creatures.

The hidden nature of these evil creatures has left some academies confused.

What should we do now?

Deal with the interstellar races?

But are the interstellar races really something we can handle? The nation's powerful figures have united with the interstellar races to establish the Alliance Academy. Does this mean the interstellar races are friendly, or does it mean they are not?

It's very troubling and confusing.

Leaders from other countries have sent their best students. Blonde, blue-eyed, black, white – all kinds of appearances, like a melting pot.

On top of a tilted, ruined building in the distance, One-Eyed Man stood on the rooftop. The formerly abandoned school had been completely renovated, standing in stark contrast to its surroundings.

"Aren't you going?" Liu Haichan asked.

Having cultivated under Dao Tree Celestial, Liu Haichan's strength had rapidly increased, his aura restrained. He had learned many Daoist arts and divine abilities. He noticed the leader's inner turmoil.

One-Eyed Man said in a deep voice, "What's there to see?"

Liu Haichan said, "It might be good to take a look."

One-Eyed Man shook his head. "I really didn't expect that students from the Four Great Academies would drop out and join this so-called Alliance Academy, and one of them is someone I once valued highly."

Hearing the leader's words, Liu Haichan was startled and looked intently towards the distance.

Soon, he found a young man.

"Huo Xingzong?"

"You know him?"

Liu Haichan said, "Yes, I've heard of him. A very talented young man from the Buddhist Academy. He reached level nine at a young age. With his talent, becoming a City Protector is just a matter of a few years. Oh, right, using the interstellar races' cultivation levels, he should be at the Golden Body stage."

One-Eyed Man said, "I trained him."

"Huh?" Liu Haichan was astonished, seemingly surprised that One-Eyed Man would say he trained him.

One-Eyed Man said, "Every month, I would disguise myself and go to the Buddhist Academy to teach him cultivation. I didn't expect to raise a traitor."

Seeing One-Eyed Man's low spirits, Liu Haichan comforted him, "Perhaps he wants to learn more advanced cultivation methods. It's not what you think."

"No, he's serious. I can tell," One-Eyed Man said expressionlessly, but his heart ached. It was like the successor he had personally cultivated had turned to the enemy.

Liu Haichan knew One-Eyed Man's character. As the leader, he didn't want to cling to power forever, but rather to cultivate a new successor, someone who would dedicate their life to humanity.

And such a successor must be resolute and without any flaws, not even undercover work, because they represent the spirit of the entire special department.

Lin Fan wasn't suitable to be the leader, not because of his character or strength, but because of his temperament.

He clenched his fists.

Then, he exhaled heavily, sweeping away the depression in his heart.

The Alliance Academy's opening ceremony was grand.

Many aspiring students stood at the gate, admiring the surroundings. Hmm... very nice. It would be even better if it were in the city.

But they believed that as long as the Alliance Academy thrived, developers would surely build a bustling street around it.

Inside a luxurious business car:

"Big Brother, this Alliance Academy is really impressive," Wang Erdan said, his eyes wide open, staring intently. In his opinion, the Alliance Academy was truly domineering.

Zhou Hu smiled. "This is where I'll begin my advancement."

He had registered some time ago, paying a hefty tuition fee, full of anticipation. With his abilities, how could he not be selected?

"Big Brother, I believe you can do it," Wang Erdan said firmly.

Zhou Hu patted Erdan's shoulder. Working together, they would surely make their business flourish. However, before that, there were still some things he couldn't let go of.

"Erdan, you must remember, when you go with him to the sewers, you must keep your ears open. You absolutely cannot let those rich ladies take advantage of Hudanwu. Otherwise, our golden signboard will be ruined."

This was his biggest fear.

Those rich ladies may look human, but one shouldn't be fooled by appearances. They are truly like wolves and tigers, capable of draining the very essence from Hudanwu.

He was afraid Erdan wouldn't be able to watch over him.

Then, he looked at the handsome and extraordinary Hudanwu.

"Did you remember what I told you before I left?"

Hudanwu said, "I remember."

"Good. Don't let those old women get their way. If they go too far, you must resist. You are our signboard. If you are ruined, we have nothing left."

Zhou Hu thought to himself, if only Erdan looked more fierce and was more timid inside. Unfortunately, Erdan didn't look fierce and was also timid. He could only hope Hudanwu could protect himself.

"Don't worry, I know," Hudanwu nodded.

He knew how to make money, and life was comfortable with money. Even Gegewu looked at him expectantly. As long as they earned money, Gegewu could order several meals a day, each with meat.

Zhou Hu waved his hand and got out of the car to register.

He came to the Alliance Academy to gain some strength. As for other matters, he hadn't given them a thought. He even wanted to expand his business into the academy.

Perhaps there were rich ladies here as well.

Zhou Hu, carrying his bag and wearing a thick gold chain around his neck, strode forward with a swagger, his face full of menacing flesh. Those who blocked his path were so intimidated that they actively made way for him.

Sniff!

He sniffed the air.

He smelled many fragrances.

"Holy crap!"

Zhou Hu discovered the situation was somewhat similar to what he had imagined. Damn it, there were girls everywhere. He felt like most of the students recruited by the Alliance Academy were girls.

Listening carefully:

"We'll be able to see the handsome interstellar hunks soon."

"Yeah, yeah."

"I've been looking forward to it for days."

"Hey, aren't you from the Medical Academy? Why are you here at the Alliance Academy too?"

"I dropped out of the Medical Academy. It's boring there. My boyfriend didn't want me to apply to the Alliance Academy, saying something about the interstellar races having ulterior motives. I didn't like that, so I dumped him. Those guys are so handsome, how could they be bad people?"

Zhou Hu smiled.

What a bunch of foolish women.

Even he, with his limited education, knew that the interstellar races must have a hidden agenda. They were so naive. If they weren't going to suffer, who would?

There was no other way.

With his talent, the Four Great Academies wouldn't accept him, so he could only try his luck here.

He observed the girls, and they also noticed this fierce-looking man, pointing and whispering at Zhou Hu.

"What are you looking at?" Zhou Hu glared, raising his hands like claws. "Look again, and I'll rip your boobs off."

Watching the girls flee, he felt a bit smug.

"Wimps..."

Inside the academy, Li Guofeng stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the crowded scene at the school gate. He smiled and said, "Look, our Alliance Academy is very popular."

Mu Hao said, "Of course. The Alliance Academy, spearheaded by me, Mu Hao, how could it be anything less?"

Regarding this interstellar race member, Li Guofeng always thought he was someone who thought too much, not very bright. Was this Alliance Academy really established by him?

He was just an insignificant member of the academy.

Of course, he couldn't afford to offend any member of the interstellar races at this point.

It was a most awkward situation.
