Chapter 791 - Heaven’s will (2/2)
Hu Qingsong sighed heavily and shook his head again, obviously thinking that Ghost was still too young and naïve. Even the chancellor of the Mu City Academy would not dare to speak so highly of himself. Hu Qingsong thought those words were rather arrogant for someone with an unknown background.
Of course, he could not blame Xiao Luo and Ghost since they were still very young and probably inexperienced. It was typical for youngsters of that age to feel invincible when they possessed some skills.
Sternly, Hu Qingsong asked, “Must you guys go to Baiyue nation?”
Xiao Luo nodded and answered, “Yes, we do.”
“Then let us hurry to the academy. We should capitalize on this opportunity before the news of the fight gets back to the academy. Use the teleportation portal and leave here right now. Let us go, and we have to be quick. You guys won’t be able to leave if we delay!” Hu Qingsong led the way as he ran toward the Mu City Academy.
“Brother Xiao and Miss Ghost, listen to Mentor Hu’s advice. Let us go,” Luo Jinshi said as he hurried them.
Ghost was feeling puzzled and asked, “Handsome Luoluo, was my explanation difficult to understand?”
Xiao Luo raised his brows and shrugged. Then he immediately followed Hu Qingsong.
“Better to be safe than sorry. Goddamn rascal, don’t let history repeat itself,” whispered Duck Emperor. He reminded Xiao Luo, feeling overcome by a sense of trepidation.
“Do not worry.”
Xiao Luo answered as he did not intend to commit the same mistake twice.

After half an hour, they have finally arrived at the Mu City Academy.
The academy was extraordinarily vast, and it was in the center of Mu City. It occupied one-tenth of Mu City’s total land area. The gate to the academy was plain and unadorned. The green stairs showed vicissitudes of age, and a holy aura enshrouded the entire academy. It was indeed an institution with thousands of years of history.
There were countless pavilions and towers in the academy, clear lakes with aqua-blue water, and spacious training grounds.
Xiao Luo felt as if he had returned to his college in the Original World. However, the academy in Mu City was more expansive than any of the colleges he attended in the Original World. There were students in uniform everywhere, and some ordinary folks of Mu City mingled among them. Those were the people who wanted to use the teleportation portal, just like Xiao Luo.
The teleportation portal was on a squarish empty field on the west side of the academy. Many people who desired to use it were waiting outside while a few Elders and Senior Mentors were charging the portal.
“Oh no, the teleportation portal just ran out of energy. It needs a recharge of True Inner Force!”
Luo Jinshi looked troubled and said, “What a terrible coincidence. What should we do now?”
As he spoke, he looked over to his mentor, Hu Qingsong, hoping that he could come up with some countermeasure.
Hu Qingsong heaved a long sigh again and replied, “It is heaven’s will. It is all heaven’s will. How could heaven be siding with terrible people like Zheng Feihan?”
