Hearing this, Wen Xishu felt reassured. Had the Old Principal made a breakthrough?
Mr. Jin probably would not be able to leave that place anytime soon.
Because he was afraid. Of course, that was only Wen Xishu's guess.
Now Wen Xishu also very much wanted to know what secrets Xiao Jin held.
"Could you take me to see the Principal?"
"Please follow me."
Wen Xishu left with the Academy Spirit.
The Tower of Deception Academy was utterly quiet, making Wen Xishu realize that he really had overdone it.
It had only been a few days, and the crowd had gone from brimming with confidence to being afraid to come near.
This was bad for enrollment. He had to change things. He needed to take part in some lower-level Strange Tower instances and get a feel for their more modest supernatural horrors.
After he walked out of the Tower of Deception Academy, quite a few students spotted the legendary academy dean who was their own age.
But none dared approach him.
They were genuinely afraid of the Academy Spirit. The Academy Spirit certainly knew how to handle things.
It voluntarily took whatever blame it could for Wen Xishu. For instance, in the facility's Recollection Archive, it would say it had raised the difficulty itself.
Although the parents of the student who had gone mad wanted to make trouble for Wen Xishu, more people believed that the great Orphanage Director Wen would never be so ruthless. It was all that sinister Academy Spirit's doing.
The Academy Spirit's fearsome reputation also kept ordinary students from approaching.

Soon, Wen Xishu crossed the academy grounds from the Tower of Deception Academy
