Chapter 4 Assi 8
by"Give him some treatment." Karida added, and the two Holy Sanctuary warriors were momentarily stunned but still carried out Karida's order meticulously, loosening their grip slightly.
One word to hell, one word to heaven.
In an instant, Old Wang forcibly held back his curses.
"Headmistress, I live for you and die for you; you are my goddess!" Wang Feng felt his heart was about to leap out of his chest—the sudden ups and downs were too exhilarating.
Life is a play, indeed all about acting.
Wang Feng was carried away, and the secret room fell silent again. Beside her, Lan Tian couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, do you really believe him?"
Karida glanced at Lan Tian, neither confirming nor denying, "He can't stay in the Institute of Potions. Announce it as an accident and transfer him to the Rune Academy. He truly cannot die now."
"Expansion," this term was used quite aptly. Indeed, they couldn't afford to tarnish their reputation over a mere cannon fodder, affecting her plans.
To kill or not, it all depended on her mood.
Three days later, at the entrance of Rose Holy Sanctuary College, beside the circular flower bed, the sun, flowers, and fresh air made everything seem peaceful and warm, with laughter and joy around.
Wang Feng felt like he had been reborn. He had crossed over into a world much like the one he designed in Imperial Nine Heavens. This body also bore the name Wang Feng, a dead soldier from the Nine Gods Empire who was captured while executing a sabotage plan. Through his quick thinking and silver tongue, Wang Feng managed to avoid becoming a disgrace among those who had crossed over.
He survived, albeit temporarily. He could sense a subtle surveillance. With his current pitiful combat strength, anyone here could take him down a thousand times over.
Thinking back to that damp, dark, and bloody basement three days ago, and then looking at the harmonious and bright Rose Holy Sanctuary before him—
Spit. Damn barbaric, low-level society!
Today was the day new students enrolled at Rose Holy Sanctuary. Young, vibrant individuals radiated charm and vitality from another world.
Damn, these legs are quite nice. It's good to be alive.
"Afeng, it's great that you're okay. I said our Headmistress is the most beautiful and kindest; she wouldn't blame you." A fat guy beside him smiled warmly.
Beautiful? Kind? Blame?
She almost skinned me alive, breaking three of my ribs. Even with potions and exorcists' treatments, it took him two days to recover. If it weren't for the act, someone like him would be less than a dog in Karida's eyes.
This fat guy was Fantasi from his predecessor's memories, weighing over two hundred pounds, with a Tiger Soul. He was Wang Feng's close friend at Rose Holy Sanctuary and had also been admitted through expansion. Given his qualifications, he probably had no chance of ever entering a Holy Sanctuary in eight lifetimes. The reason his predecessor chose him was merely for cover because this fat guy was adorably naive.
The Holy Sanctuary College was a post-war product, established in major cities across the League of Blades. To become a "hero," this was the only path.
Entering a Holy Sanctuary didn't guarantee becoming a hero, but without it, one could never become one.
They were in Aurora City, north of the Nine Gods Empire, south of the League of Blades' three major powers, east of the Sea Clan, and west of the Datura Empire of the Eight Tribes. Its strategic location was crucial during the war, and its original inhabitants were exterminated. After the war, various factions fought over it, eventually turning it into a free city, touted as the most democratic and free city on the Nine Heavens Continent.
Spit!
The place they were in was called Rose Holy Sanctuary. Only by entering a Holy Sanctuary could commoners change their social class, while nobles and wealthy individuals consolidated their power, wealth, and connections through it. Centuries of development had permeated every corner of the League of Blades with the Holy Sanctuary system.
Rose Holy Sanctuary had a long history and once achieved glorious victories. However, in the past twenty years, it had been overshadowed by the Judgment Holy Sanctuary in the same city. The new headmistress decided to reform, with all Holy Sanctuary Colleges in the League of Blades following an elite route, accepting only the most talented disciples.
Strict entry and exit standards, while Rose Holy Sanctuary pioneered a new initiative: easy entry and strict exit. Essentially, "expansion," even allowing donations for admission. Many conservative members of the Holy Sanctuary considered this a "desecration" of its honor, yet Headmistress Karida persisted in her ways.
Indeed, Wang Feng and Fantasi managed to slip in. Rumor has it that this year, things have escalated further, with Karida apparently being one to stir up trouble. She seemed intent on either making her mark or causing chaos.
Such a woman was not to be trifled with.
"Afeng, it's great that you're okay. I still need to deliver lunch to Lei Lei at noon." At the mention of his goddess, Fantasi's face turned into that of a lovesick puppy.
Rachel was one of the most notable girls in their 97th cohort, from the Martial Dao Courtyard, a pure S-type, walking hormone. Clearly, according to memory, Fantasi was just one of her many backup options, perhaps not even that.
"What's a 'licking dog,' Afeng? I feel like you've been acting strange lately. Also, you used to call me 'Axi,' but now there's an extra 'ba.' It feels weird."
Wang Feng patted Fantasi, "Brother, 'ba' is a local exclamation from my hometown. I'm saying you're handsome."
Fantasi grinned widely, his eyes squeezed shut by his chubby cheeks. Truly, he felt genuinely handsome, believing that ordinary people lacked the ability to appreciate it. Indeed, birds of a feather flock together; they were brothers.
