22 Chapter 22: The Principals anxiety! (2/2)
In other words, eight years later with the help of this mysterious pearl, his battle prowess would be way, way more higher!
He could somehow feel that, it would be possible to beat that sun dragon!
Most importantly, they would have the chance to overturn the previous future and he could avenge everyone from that timeline.
Therefore it could be said that, their chance to change the future was at the cost of everyone's death!
With such responsibility on his shoulders, how could he afford to risk the existence of the mysterious pearl being known?
Thus, he would let them assume that he was destined somehow to change their fate.
”What.. should we do about the footage..?” asked Ran Yang to break the awkward silence.
”We.. I think we should show it to the principal.. and let him decide.. ” replied Wang Guozhi, although he seemed to be quite unsure as well.
After all, what they had just witnessed was extremely bizarre that involved everyone's fate, thus in their mind, everyone should have the right to know!
But at the same time, it could cause harm to Duan Li when people realized what he could become in the future, especially those that disdain and hate others to be stronger than them.
”I think.. the principal would know what to do too.. ” said Ling Yu and everyone as they nodded solemnly.
After a short discussion, Ran Yang will stay to heal the four students while they will head to the principal's office to report and hand over the footage.
...
Knock knock!
”Come in!”
The principal had just finished writing a report regarding what the millennium Yidara tree, or wanted to be known as Ancestor Zong, told them. Eventhough the 'impossibility' part of tiding through the future end times seemed like an exageration, he wrote it in anyway.
”Principal, we.. have come to show you something..” said Ling Yu as she lead the party inside the principal's office.
”Ohh? Its you people. Have a sit first.” he said casually while pouring hot tea into a few cups.
”Now, what is it?” he said as he handed one cup each to them.
Wang Guozhi, Ling Yu and Xiahou Yu turned towards Duan Li as they signaled at him, indicating;
'You explain it to the principal!'
Thus, Duan Li straightened himself up and swallowed his saliva. He stood up and walk forward to give a red jade slip on his right hand to the principal.
”This.. it is hard to explain.. and we don't know where to start. But I guess it would be better if Principal were to see it yourself..”
The principal creased his brows together looking at that red jade slip, one that is used to record scenes or events in visual footage.
Taking it from Duan Li's hands, he then put the jade slip on a small circle tray as the jade slip glowed.
Wonggg!
A visual footage appeared on thin air as the principal cupped his chin.
...
The footage on Duan Li's trial was about one hour long, and as time passes by, the principal's expression turned grim. By the time the eight abominations appeared on that snowy plains, he was already standing up straight, immersed in the epic battle as he clenched his fists tight.
Finally, when the sun dragon descended and burned the whole Tian continent to ashes, his expression froze for a while with his eyes opened wide, before he sat down slowly as he rubbed his temples.
”This.. who else.. knew about this?” he asked towards the party.
”Sir, other than us, there is still Ran Yang. Her four other students had passed out not long before Duan Li's trial started, so they wouldn't have been able to witness it.” answered Wang Guozhi truthfully.
Hearing this, the principal exhaled in relief.
”Good. Do not let anyone know about this matter too. In due time, I will release these information to the public properly. For now, this has already go way beyond my jurisdiction and authority to handle. Thus, I will be forwarding it to the administration of the empire.”
The principal rubbed his temple once more. Due to this footage, he needed to rewrite the whole report that he just did.
Atta damn boy!
What a trouble you are!
Hais..
”Tell the senior teacher in charge of the third test, that both of them had passed the personality test, with me as the invigilator!”
If another bizarre incident were to happen again because of this boy, he wasn't sure if he could contain things under his wraps anymore.
Ling Yu and Wang Guozhi nodded.
”Now the three of you may leave, but you, student Duan Li, stay!”
Gulp!
