Chapter 487 – Two Wildflowers Fill the Cliff (III) (2/2)
All youths enjoyed speaking of struggle, but not all youths understood this reasoning.
”I know how to work hard.”
Chen Changsheng thought it over, then said, ”For certain reasons, I was originally planning to work hard until I became the most powerful person in the world. This matter is something I can do incidentally.”
Tang Thirty-Six replied, ”You've used the word 'incidentally' very well. I find it very admirable. It seems indifferent and particularly uncaring. In the future, when you become the world's most powerful man, don't forget this word.”
Chen Changsheng replied, ”I will remember.”
Tang Thirty-Six extended his hand. ”Deal.”
Chen Changsheng had never performed this sort of action before. He somewhat clumsily imitated Tang Thirty-Six in extending his hand.
Tang Thirty-Six very casually gripped the hand and then released it.
”Let’s go. The Bureau of Ecclesiastic Education sent news saying that the Orthodox Academy will have guests tomorrow. We have to prepare a little.”
”You're the principal, this sort of thing is meant for you to do. I'm too lazy to care about it. Let me stick around for a little more.”
Tang Thirty-Six walked over to the great banyan tree by the lake. ”In the past, you and Princess Luoluo always hogged this tree. Today, you have to let me enjoy it a little.”
Without saying anything, Chen Changsheng turned and left. After a moment, he heard a voice coming from the great banyan tree. Turning his head, he saw that Tang Thirty-Six was already standing on the tree branch.
The light of stars spilled down from the night sky, enveloping the great banyan tree and plating his clothes with a faint layer of the radiance of the stars. From a distance, he seemed like a very beautiful little silver man.
The plot of the Tianhai clan and the Orthodoxy's new faction had encountered an unforeseen setback.
No one was able to tell whether this was a plot or a farce.
Under Chen Changsheng and Tang Thirty-Six's seemingly mischievous, but truthfully quite tough and unyielding resistance, this offense which used the All-School Martial Exhibition as its origin had been forced to temporarily come to a stop before it was able to transform into a fierce storm. After Su Moyu disciplined that servant of the Bie family called Ye Xingqing, Bie Tianxin most likely realized that this was a warning from his father. Even after the last match concluded, he still did not appear.
The Orthodox Academy welcomed a momentary peace, and then it very quickly welcomed its first group of guests.
In the early morning, when the weather was still not too hot, the Orthodox Academy's main gate completely opened, with the priests of the Li Palace arrayed outside. The new students who had just concluded their breakfast or had already begun their morning studies curiously looked over. News began to spread and the new students revealed tense and excited expressions on their faces. One by one, they made their way over to the main gate, curiously peering out. It didn't take long before two carriages stopped in front of the gate. The Imperial Guards that had opened the way handed off their duties to the Orthodoxy cavalry. Palace maids walked before the two carriages and solemnly and respectfully supported the passengers off the carriages.
The visitors of the Orthodox Academy were Mo Yu and an old man.
