Dragon Tamer

Chapter 383: Chapter 385: Thinking He Can Cover the Sky with One Hand

“Those from the High Court are all watching you as well,” Lu Wenye said with some envy.

When could he stand out like Zhu Minglang, attracting such attention?

“So much for the Supreme Court, haha!” Hong Hao began to get cocky.

“You, who won by lying down, how can you have the face to say such things!” At this moment, Jiang Zhiyi passed by and, upon hearing this remark, was instantly filled with anger as he exclaimed.

How could a nobody, who could only compete with one of his dragons by exhausting all his strength, have the gall to say such things—shameless!

“What’s wrong with winning by lying down? It shows I’m a person with foresight, who knows how to choose teammates!” Hong Hao said proudly, without a hint of shame for his minuscule contribution.

Winning meant a team victory, and as a member of the victorious side, he should indeed be a bit wild!

The shamelessly thick-skinned Hong Hao managed to infuriate those proud students from the High Court.

“Hong Hao is right. Without you guys clearing those tough opponents in front for me, it would have been very difficult for me to hold out till the end,” Zhu Minglang said with exceptional humility.

“We from Li Chuan, we’re awesome. Why don’t we just go independent, no need to take their crap here,” Hong Hao exaggerated more and more.

Duan Changqing shook his head helplessly.

Leaving the Dragon Taming Academy was impossible; after all, the entire system of Li Chuan relied on Man City Academy.

Indeed, there were narrow-minded individuals like Sun Chong in the High Court, but there was still much that was worthy of study for both Li Chuan and the students from Li Chuan.

If they could officially become a branch, the Dragon Shepherd Students in Li Chuan would enjoy more resource distribution, and the doors of Dragon Taming Academies everywhere would open to them, providing the students with more opportunities for exchange and learning, rather than being frogs in a well on Li Chuan Continent.

“Zhu Minglang, we owe you a great debt for this time. I don’t know how to thank you,” Duan Changqing let out a long sigh of relief.

These days, he had been worn out by this matter, but now that the trial for the students was finally complete, it was a significant success.

“No need for thanks, I’m a student of Li Chuan Academy after all; fighting for this honor for my academy is only right,” Zhu Minglang said with a smile.

The academy was indeed a good place, offering a stable refuge in his time of distress.

Zhu Minglang did have feelings for Li Chuan Dragon Taming Academy.

“Dean, does this mean we are now recognized by the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent, and no one will call us a wild chicken academy anymore?” Bai Yishu asked.

“This is only one step towards success. There’s another appraisal to come, but you don’t need to worry about that,” Duan Changqing said.

“Another appraisal, what else is there to assess?”

“It’s probably just waiting for a response from the High Court,” Duan Changqing said, not so certain himself.

“Speaking of which, why isn’t Teacher Duan Lan here today? It feels somewhat odd to have such an important assessment without Teacher Duan Lan,” Zhu Minglang asked with some confusion.

“Could she have forgotten the time?” Bai Yishu asked.

Previously, their attention had been fully on the competition, especially with the tension escalating after Fei Song’s dragon was killed, which made Duan Changqing realize that Duan Lan had never appeared at the scene.

Indeed, Duan Lan had told Duan Changqing that she would be late.

But everything was over now, and still there was no sign of her.

“Duan Changqing, don’t celebrate too soon. Even if your students have won, your shabby academy will never receive the final recognition from the High Court!” Sun Chong passed by, speaking in a low and cold tone to Duan Changqing.

“Sun Chong, do you really think I, Duan Changqing, am so soft that you can just squeeze me?” Duan Changqing spoke firmly.

“Do you truly believe you can contend against the entire high echelon of the High Court? I may have fallen this time, but don’t think you’ll get off easily!” Having said that, Sun Chong had already turned and left.

From his stance, he seemed determined to fight to the bitter end with Teacher Duan Lan.

Clearly, this was not a simple matter of assessing the students.

Zhu Minglang, unable to restrain himself any longer after seeing Sun Chong’s arrogant departure, asked Teacher Duan Lan, “Dean, there’s no need to keep secrets any longer. Tell me what is hindering us.”

“Yes, Dean, let us think of a solution together,” Bai Yishu said.

“The preliminary review and core review have already passed, and now we’re at the final review. The High Court has four deans responsible for our final review at Li Chuan Academy. Even if we pass this assessment of student strength, to become an official branch, we still need simultaneous approval from three deans. Dean Han Wen should be supportive of us. With our victory this time, the chief dean should also approve. However, Sun Chong and another have firmly decided to stand against us…” Teacher Duan Lan explained.

“We’ve won all the battles, yet they still won’t pass us; what right do they have!” Li Shaoying said indignantly.

“So it also depends on whether today’s events can ferment. If the last dean He cannot withstand the public opinion, perhaps he will also pass us. Let’s wait a few days, the results should be coming soon,” Teacher Duan Lan stated.

“But judging from Sun Chong’s attitude, he’s probably already colluded with another dean. This so-called final review ultimately depends on the whims of others,” Zhu Minglang noted.

Teacher Duan Lan nodded.

Indeed, when power is in the hands of others, one’s hard work does not necessarily lead to a good outcome.

…

Everyone returned to rest, and indeed, the news spread quickly, as the details of the battle had already been disseminated.

Zhu Minglang fed Little Qingzhuo some Advanced Wutong Spirit Dew, then let it sleep and recuperate with a Jade Fei Leaf in its mouth.

“You performed perfectly today. Once you’ve reached the mature phase, you’ll have the cultivation base of a Monarch Level. Perhaps there’s a chance to directly assault the Dragon King Realm when you reach the Complete Period.”

“However, your mature phase and Complete Period will be a bit longer. When the time comes, I’ll find more suitable nourishment for you, and we’ll soar to the skies!”

Zhu Minglang was in high spirits.

Just thinking about the Azure Phoenix Green Saint Dragon’s fighting prowess today made him want to hum a lively tune.

Still in the growth phase, yet capable of taking down a Peak dragon lord.

When it reaches its Complete Period, might it be strong enough to spar with the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon?

Not to say it could reach the transcendental strength of the TianSha Dragon King, but to make it wary enough to prevent any revolt!

“Yawning~~~~~~~~”

Little Qingzhuo, with the Fei Leaf in its mouth, rubbed its head against Zhu Minglang as if savoring the comforting strokes, before returning to the Spirit Realm to absorb the spiritual energy that could accelerate its growth rate by a hundred and twenty times.

It needed to hurry and reach its mature phase. It also needed more time for quiet cultivation and absorbing the Spiritual Rhyme!

“I feel I should meet with the Great Instructor in person and ask for his help for Li Chuan Academy,” Zhu Minglang decided, recalling Teacher Duan Lan’s words during the day.

That day, he had mentioned to Lin Zhao the possibility of needing assistance, fearing that the academy might not pass the review.

Some matters seemed complex, yet in truth, they were nothing more than a simple thought at the higher levels.

If the higher-ups say it can pass, then it will pass.

If the higher-ups do not give a clear response, then people like Sun Chong, acting as deans, would start causing trouble, fancying themselves omnipotent!
