I Am Daoist Hongjun

After Headmaster Yang left, Li Qianjun slowly lowered himself into the chair, using it for support. After pondering for quite some time, he had a thought, and someone appeared beside him.

He took out an item and said to the person, "Go to the Academic Affairs Office and find someone named Li Fan. Confirm Zhang Zhi's residence, then go find Zhang Zhi and tell him I have something important to discuss with him."

The person accepted the item from Li Qianjun and said, "As you command." The next moment, he transformed into a streak of White Light and shot out of the room.

After leaving the Trial Tower, Zhang Zhi went straight back to his Small Courtyard.

Once he returned, he kept reflecting on the problem with his mindset.

On the way back, he had heard some girls praising him, and his mindset had shifted again.

After the Primary Education assessment, his mindset had clearly become inflated. He had cared too much about being called a "genius" and wanted to maintain that title, which was why he had been so eager to help Fang Yun advance to the Transcendent Realm and so eager to advance the Small World into a Medium Small World.

With the Golden Finger, he did not need to worry too much about cards in the future. At worst, he could spend more Mental Power strengthening his cards. Even if the Small World's advancement slowed down, it would not matter.

Just as he was thinking that he should keep a lower profile in the future and slowly advance his Small World, Li Fan came over.

When he learned that Li Qianjun wanted to see him, Zhang Zhi understood everything.

Li Qianjun was definitely looking for him because of his achievement in the Trial Tower that day.

On the way to Li Qianjun's residence, he had been struggling with whether or not to admit that he was Daoist Hongjun.

If he admitted it, there would be many benefits. At the very least, he would definitely secure two Trial Tower slots every month.

If he refused to admit it, the only benefit would be that he could keep a lower profile and avoid attracting too much attention.

When he met Li Qianjun, Your Excellency was just as enthusiastic as he had been the previous time. However, Zhang Zhi no longer sensed that feeling of distance, as though it had merely been his own illusion before.

Regardless, Zhang Zhi had to show gratitude to the big shot who had recruited him into Seven Dragons Academy.

When Zhang Zhi arrived, Li Qianjun did not waste time and got straight to the point. "You entered the Trial Tower today?"

Zhang Zhi thought, As expected, this is about the Trial Tower. Could Li Qianjun have already learned that Daoist Hongjun is me and started to acknowledge and admire me?

He felt a little smug. Making an elder who had not thought highly of him change his opinion and come to acknowledge and admire him was quite an accomplishment.

After countless thoughts flashed through his mind, he nodded at Li Qianjun and said, "Yes. I've always been curious about the Trial Tower, so today was my first time entering it."

Li Qianjun stared straight at Zhang Zhi. "Are you Daoist Hongjun?"

Seeing that Zhang Zhi seemed about to answer, he waved a hand to signal that Zhang Zhi should listen first.

"Don't rush to answer!"

"You've only just entered the Secondary Education School, and you've only just begun learning about the many matters of this world."

"Because of the unusual nature of what happened in the Trial Tower today, I'll first explain some classified information to you."

"For example, because our Realm Lord's Main World is too powerful, the main worlds of the demon race, Spirit Race, ghost race, and the other Seven Great Foreign Races have formed an alliance to oppose our Realm Lord's Main World."

"I'm telling you this because the foreign races have always been infiltrating the Realm Lord's Main World. Quite a few foreign races, such as the demon race, have already infiltrated it."

"So Daoist Hongjun, who achieved Ten Flowers Celebrate Together in the Trial Tower today, will definitely be targeted by those foreign races!"

At this point, a chill ran down Zhang Zhi's back. If Li Qianjun had not stopped him from speaking, he probably would have immediately shouted that he was not Daoist Hongjun.

Anyone capable of infiltrating the Realm Lord's Main World had to be at least at the Soul Transformation level or possess Weak Divine Power. If he were targeted by such an existence, he might not even know how he had died.

Li Qianjun continued, "So if you are Daoist Hongjun, you must understand the current situation. We will give the title of Daoist Hongjun to someone else, and all the associated honors and prestige will be placed on that person. When the time comes, you must not regret it."

"If you aren't Daoist Hongjun, we'll give you all the rewards and honors Daoist Hongjun deserves and publicly claim that you are Daoist Hongjun."

After listening to Li Qianjun, Zhang Zhi finally relaxed.

However, he asked curiously, "Why would you have me impersonate him?"

"Because only nine of the people who entered the Trial Tower this time were newly enrolled students, and you were the only specially recruited student among them."

Zhang Zhi slowly nodded. "So you want the fake Daoist Hongjun to act as bait and draw out the foreign races hiding inside the Small World? But is Daoist Hongjun, who merely achieved the 'kicking the nursing home and punching the kindergarten' result in the Tier 1 Arena, qualified enough?"

Hearing this, Li Qianjun shook his head. "You don't know much about the Trial Ground or Ten Flowers Celebrate Together. Let me put it this way: in the nearly ten thousand years of Seven Dragons Academy's history, every Realm Lord who achieved Ten Flowers Celebrate Together eventually became a Middle Thousand World Realm Lord."

Only then did Zhang Zhi understand just how astonishing the achievement he had attained was!

Seeing that Zhang Zhi seemed to be weighing the pros and cons, Li Qianjun continued, "Actually, the bait is meant to lure out more than just the infiltrating foreign races. It's also meant to draw out certain human scum who are cooperating with the foreign races."

Zhang Zhi was stunned when he heard this. "Humans cooperating with the foreign races? How is that possible? Humanity is at the height of its power right now. How could anyone betray humanity?"

Li Qianjun waved a hand. "These aren't things you should know."

"So? What's your answer?"

"Of course, if you're unwilling to impersonate Daoist Hongjun, that's fine too. I just think that becoming Daoist Hongjun will allow you to obtain many resources and offer quite a few benefits for your early development."

"After all, the academy will never mistreat those who make sacrifices for it."

Countless thoughts flashed through Zhang Zhi's mind. Finally, he spoke. "Yes. I am Daoist Hongjun."

"If you're willing, then—"

"Hm?"

Li Qianjun suddenly realized what Zhang Zhi had said. His expression held a trace of surprise, along with an expression that said he had expected this. "You mean that you are Daoist Hongjun?"

Zhang Zhi looked at Li Qianjun's serious expression and nodded solemnly. "Yes, that's right. The Daoist Hongjun who achieved the 'kicking the nursing home and punching the kindergarten' achievement today was me!"

His expression was solemn, but he thought, This is only the 'kicking the nursing home and punching the kindergarten' achievement, and it has already made you this cautious. You're having someone impersonate me and someone else act as bait. If you knew that I had achieved the even more incredible 'Undefeated in a Hundred Battles' achievement, wouldn't you turn the world upside down?
