Dean Zheng truly could not stay composed any longer.
Shock showed on his face.
Not only was Lu Yuan powerful,
but his comprehension was actually better than Northern Emperor's, Ice Fairy's, and the others'?
"Dean Zheng, is this the Mr. Lu you invited? He really lives up to his reputation."
"That's right. He went straight past the thirtieth level. His comprehension is remarkable."
"It looks like Dean Zheng is going to earn himself some credit this time."
The other academy deans saw what had happened.
They were all astonished too.
They had originally assumed Lu Yuan's strength came from some powerful bloodline he possessed, or perhaps from eating some Spiritual Fruit or Exotic Grass.
His comprehension might be good, but surely it wasn't much better than Northern Emperor's, Ice Fairy's, and the others'. Now, it seemed that wasn't the case at all.
The thirtieth level! Previously, that was as far as all the branches of Zhendan Academy had managed to get combined.
And that had only been because those old Daoist priests had been invited over as a favor to the authorities.
Now,
someone had reached that achievement on his own, so naturally, it was a surprise.
Moreover, Lu Yuan had been invited by Dean Zheng. It seemed certain he would comprehend the legacy on the sword stele above the thirtieth level.
If he brought it back afterward, the higher-ups would surely be delighted. As for the authorities behind them,
what else could that be but earning credit?
"Hahaha."
Hearing their remarks, Dean Zheng managed an awkward laugh.
He still didn't want to tell them about the promise he had made earlier.
He was afraid they'd go berserk if they found out.
Please.
Please don't go any higher. It would be best if he fell behind Chunyang and Huikong.
