"So, first you were hunted by a Thousand-Year One-Eyed Giant Horn Antelope, then by a two-thousand-year Giant Multi-Legged Sky Dragon?"
"And in the end, you were saved by the hunting party led by the second young lady of the Spirit Cat Duke's Mansion in the Star Luo Empire."
The dean distilled the key information.
