Guo Ran could hardly believe his ears. The director was actually willing to give up the position—what was going on?
Long Chen shook his head and said, "Dean, I believe that with your skills and wisdom, you won't be unprepared for such a crisis. I believe you should have the ability to turn the tide." This
old dean was so steady, his composure and unhurried that seemed unfathomable. He was a true wise man. Long Chen didn't believe it—he was slow to realize and helpless.
Xue Yifan shook his head and said, "Save the heart first to save a person, save the root before saving a flower. If the heart is dead and the roots are rotten, no matter how many times you save them, it will be the same. In the end, you cannot escape destruction."
And the best medicine to save the heart is the hero. A hero can lead an era; the brilliance of a hero can guide people's direction, save the souls of all beings, and turn decay into wonder.
We are all old—not just our bodies, but our minds too. We are out of touch with the times. Even if we do our utmost to quell this crisis, it won't change anything. When the next crisis arrives, we will all be buried. The human race in the Moluo Star Domain will eventually perish.
The humans of the Moluo Star Domain have completely decayed; a vibrant seed must emerge to bring new hope to this world, establish correct values, and reunite the scattered sand once again.
Only in this way can the Moluo Star Domain truly be saved. The brilliance of a hero can influence generations, even decades, or even thousands of generations.
People admire heroes and follow in their footsteps, seeing further ahead, rather than indulging in fleeting petty schemes.
Only when people have faith in their hearts will they have boundaries, understand reverence and gratitude, and humanity will endure countless hardships to stand firm. Long
Chen nodded. The old dean truly possessed wisdom as vast as the sea, and his words were thought-provoking. Long Chen couldn't help but think of the Five Emperors.
They have all been dead for countless years, yet people still remember them and always hold them in awe and gratitude. So, no matter how chaotic the Tianwu Continent may be, the brilliance of the Five Emperors always shines in their hearts. Even when trapped in desperate situations, they remain full of hope.
"This identity is awesome, boss. Why don't you give it a try?" Anyway, we don't really lose anything. Guo Ran was tempted. If this crisis was resolved, it would truly be remembered for generations. This guy was really showing off.
"If anyone is going to try, it's you. I'm just an outsider—how much influence can I have? But you're different.
As one of the Four Talents of the Tianlong Divine Armor Academy, you're considered a local disciple. Heroes must be locals to be down-to-earth and more convincing. Long Chen said irritably.
"Me?" No, no, no..."
Guo Ran immediately shook his head like a rattle drum: "I definitely can't. My small frame can't carry such a big flag." This
guy was now showing his true colors, reverting to his old idleness days. He didn't want to worry about anything, so when asked to show off in the spotlight, he didn't back down. But when asked to take the initiative, he backed out.
"Guo Ran, over the past year at our Tianlong Divine Armor Academy, you've learned quite a few skills, haven't you? Now that the academy is in trouble, isn't it a bit unfair for you to back down like this?" Xue Yifan looked at Guo Ran and smiled.
Under the old director's gaze, Guo Ran immediately felt as if sitting on pins and needles, his face bitter as he said, "Dean, I will never forget your kindness in nurturing me. Even if I had to face danger and oil, I wouldn't frown. But this banner—I really can't carry it."
If I, Guo Ran, die, it's because I am not skilled in my skills or possess the skills of others. If I die, then so be it; there's no need to blame heaven or others.
But if I were to fight with the hope of the entire Tianlong Divine Armor Academy, and even the entire Moluo Star Domain, if I died, how could I face those who followed behind me? I can't bear that responsibility! Xue
Yifan smiled, a look of relief appearing on his face: "That's right, I didn't misjudge you. Even without your flashy exterior, you're still a hero at heart."
You mainly lack confidence. If Dean Long Chen hadn't come, the beast army would have pressed in, facing life and death and had to fight, you wouldn't have run away—you'd still carry the banner in the end. Guo
Ran's words made Xue Yifan feel very gratified, proving his sharp insight was still sharp. However, Long Chen's arrival had disrupted his plan.
"Alright, let's leave it at that. When someone kindly asks for a favor, I should repay you with a spring. Guo Ran, you have no room to refuse." Long Chen said.
"Boss, I'm ...," Guo Ran suddenly became anxious.
"Can you be a little more successful?" You're the commander-in-chief of the Dragonblood Legion, you can't even handle such a small matter?
Besides, what are you afraid of? Isn't there always the boss here for everything? Long Chen angrily slapped Guo Ran on the back of the head and cursed in frustration.
After Long Chen pulled him off, Guo Ran suddenly understood. That's right, isn't the boss backing him? If things really go wrong, he'll push the boss onto him and let him take the fall.
"Hahaha, great! With the boss backing me up, I'm going to put on a show of style. Don't worry, boss, I definitely won't embarrass you." After understanding all this, Guo Ran laughed heartily and said confidently, as if he could already see himself commanding tens of millions of warships, galloping across the battlefield, full of vigor.
Seeing Guo Ran laugh arrogantly, Xue Yifan laughed too, while Long Chen glanced sideways at Guo Ran and said,
"How are you going to pretend?" There are still quite a few people waiting outside for us to go out, ready to deal with us. Guo
Ran's smile froze: "Oh right, these guys are all targeting me. Will they listen to my orders?" "
That's up to you. If a hero wants to gain others' recognition, there's often only one way." Xue Yifan smiled slightly, took out a golden nameplate, and handed it to Guo Ran.
"Acting Dean?"
Guo Ran took the nameplate and was stunned.
"What's wrong?" Not satisfied? The acting director and the director are at the same level, with almost equal power.
After the acting president takes office, there is a ten-year probation period. After the probation period, those with outstanding achievements can only be officially appointed after a parliamentary vote. The rules cannot be broken. Dean Guo Ran, do you still have any doubts? Xue Yifan said with a smile.
"The key is, if I have this nameplate, will they respect me?" Guo Ran said in disbelief.
"What does it matter whether others respect you or not to this nameplate?" Xue Yifan asked.
"This ..."
Long Chen couldn't stand it anymore. This Guo Ran was so dumb he still hadn't understood Xue Yifan's meaning.
"This nameplate is your proof of legal killing. If you don't accept it, you dare—fight until they submit. Do you understand now?" Long Chen said irritably.
"Dean Long Chen is the one who understands the situation. From here on, it's up to you two. I won't see you off." Xue Yifan said with a smile.
Long Chen and Guo Ran left the main hall, and just as they stepped out the door, they were surrounded by Wu Yangyang's crowd.
"Your moment has come."
Long Chen looked at this group of ill-intentioned people, crossed his arms over his chest, and smiled slightly.
