"That Salas is truly annoying. It's as if if the Teacher doesn't join Spirit Hall, he'll devour people."
"I remember the Teacher once lectured in class about the continental situation. Spirit Hall's rise to power is inherently based on the principle of 'those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish.' Spirit Hall widely recruits Spirit Masters on the continent. Once a highly talented Spirit Master is discovered by Spirit Hall, if they choose not to join, they might be secretly dealt with. They either die in an accident or their talent is damaged, making them ordinary."
"I'm afraid we've already been targeted by Spirit Hall, which is why Salas so brazenly offered such tempting conditions to the Teacher, along with Emperor Xue Ye, to show goodwill."
After the promotion rounds concluded, the Heart of Fire teachers and students had returned to Heart of Fire.
Next, the various academies had a few days to rest and travel.
As expected, the location of the finals would be Spirit City—the headquarters of Spirit Hall!
In Heart of Fire, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Dugu Yan, and other students expressed their indignation for the Teacher.
Xiao Wu listened to Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan analyze the intricacies of the matter, her face filled with surprise:
"Listening to you two, if the Teacher not only refused the Tian Dou Royal Family's recruitment but also rejected Spirit Hall, wouldn't he be caught between two difficult positions? Will both the Tian Dou Royal Family and Spirit Hall then target the Teacher?"
The Senior Sister Ning Rongrong, who had been trained by Xin to be the captain and commander, was no longer the little devil from over a year ago. She had developed her own ability to think, which was why Ning Fengzhi directly appointed Ning Rongrong, a female, to the position of Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School:
"No, quite the opposite. If the Teacher had accepted the Tian Dou Royal Family's recruitment, then with the Teacher's teaching ability, coupled with our performance in the preliminaries and promotion rounds, we would certainly not be tolerated by Spirit Hall. Spirit Hall would not stand by and watch the Teacher help the Tian Dou Royal Family grow stronger."
"Conversely, the same applies. If the Teacher had accepted Spirit Hall's recruitment, then the Royal Family would feel fear and would certainly be unwilling to see us join Spirit Hall."
"In other words, the Teacher not choosing either side might just be the best choice."
After Ning Rongrong finished her analysis, Xiao Wu, Meng Yiran, and Ye Lingling suddenly understood:
"So that's how it is!"
"The Teacher had already anticipated this!"
"Whether it's the title of Marquis, National Advisor, or Platinum Bishop, they're all traps!"
"Alright, girls, actually, the Teacher didn't think that much."
Xin walked over at this moment, taking stock of the improvements the students had brought him after completing the promotion rounds. His own strength had increased by over twenty percent, and the age of his first spirit ring was also approaching ten thousand years.
Xin said indifferently:
"However, since you yourselves have realized that we are now in a dangerous situation, you must be especially careful. Spirit Hall is, after all, the strongest Spirit Master force on the continent, so the finals will be even more dangerous than the preliminaries and promotion rounds."
"Nevertheless, no matter what, the Teacher will protect your safety. So from now on, every one of you must ensure you stay within two hundred meters of us and do not go out freely."
"Us? Teacher, besides you, who else?" Ye Lingling asked.
