617 Returning to the White Capital (1/2)

On the next morning, Lin Huang returned to the Martial Hunter College after bidding farewell to Mr. Fu. Liu Ming had handed over the role as Dean to the new Dean and headed to Division 3. Although he had given the door passcode to Lin Huang before he left, to prevent people from knowing how close he was to Mr. Fu, Lin Huang decided not to stay in the villa Liu Ming was staying at. Instead, he checked into a hotel that was near the college.

The hotel was less than 300 meters from the college. After settling the check-in process, Lin Huang ambled to the Martial Hunter College. The security guard recognized him at once and greeted him immediately.

”Sir Lin, you're back.”

”I've some errands to run in the White Capital, so I thought I'd drop by.” Lin Huang nodded and smiled.

After a short chat with the security guard, Lin Huang entered the college. Looking at the environment that he had familiarized with for half a year, his emotions welled up. He had spent most of the year in the college with Lin Xin; more than the time they had spent together at their home in Winter City. The time he spent at the college was the most relaxed time that he had in this world. Although his days had been packed, his life was calm without the pressure that he had always had before. However, such peace was fated to be short in this world.

He then walked to the Sword Dao office. He planned to visit Qin Tianxing and the other colleagues to check on his students during this trip. He knocked on the door while grinning, taking Zhang Xu and Yu Fei by surprise.

”Lin Huang, why are you back?” Yu Fei smiled as she asked. As one of the two ladies in Sword Dao faculty besides Mu Xiaolan, she looked reserved on the outside, but she was lively once she warmed up.

”Are you teaching again?” Zhang Xu asked. Although he and Lin Huang had some misunderstanding earlier, it was all over now.

”No, I've something to do in the White Capital, so I thought I'd drop by,” Lin Huang said as he noticed Zhang Xu's relief.

”Isn't Old Qin teaching Sword Dao Class 1 today? Why isn't he here?”

”He has resigned. He resigned at the beginning of the semester. I called him, but he didn't pick up. Nobody knows what he's doing now.” Zhang Xu shook his head.

”Then, how about the class…” Lin Huang had not finished his question, but he could guess what the answer was.

”Zhang Xu is teaching his class,” Yu Fei replied.

Lin Huang now understood why Zhang Xu was relieved when he confirmed that he was not back to teach.

”So, who's teaching Class 2 now?” Lin Huang asked.

”A transcendent-level teacher that was sent from the Union College.” Zhang Xu was upset. Unless he had many years of teaching experience and was related to the Vice Dean, he would not be able to teach Class 1. The teacher that was sent from the Union College was excellent so he would be able to teach Class 1 after teaching for two years.

”Getting the holy fire-level Life Fire is much easier than you imagined. After determining the Life Fire monster and the monster's weaknesses, just get a few friends with you to kill it. As long as you're well prepared before the trip, it's not difficult to kill. You haven't even started the battle yet, and you're scared of holy fire-level monsters without even trying. You won't be able to even perform up to 80% of your ability, that's why you failed again and again. You're an old-time hunter. You should know that most times, the difference in combat level isn't the same with the difference in ability. Holy fire-level monsters are really not as scary as you think.”

Lin Huang patted Zhang Xu's shoulder and left.

”Holy fire-level…” Looking at Lin Huang walking away, Zhang Xu clenched his fists.

”I didn't expect Old Qin to resign…” Lin Huang called Qin Tianxing's number after leaving the office. His answering machine informed him that he was not within the service area.

”That means he's either in the ruins or he kept his Emperor's Heart Ring.”

Lin Huang shook his head and walked to the building where Class 2 was. He hid on top of a tree that was 100 meters away from the cultural studies to watch his students. Most of them were paying attention in class while a few were not. They were doing well overall. One of them, who was not paying attention, was looking around the field outside the window. Suddenly, he saw Lin Huang who was on the tree. He widened his eyes.

”Sir Lin!” The young man almost screamed out loud.
