At 11:36 a.m., a motorcade entered Rongguang Square.
Soon, martial artists got out first to establish a perimeter. Then, one official after another stepped out and, escorted by guards, entered the square and headed toward the high platform directly ahead.
Amid the crowd, Xu Jing stood dressed in white, a smile on her face.
In the end, the people from Surveillance Headquarters had failed to take her away.
Lecturers and professors from the martial arts universities held corresponding "honorary titles" in Datong Prefecture. While enjoying the benefits that came with them, they were also subject to the administration of Datong Prefecture.
