Gu Qing raised his hand and knocked lightly on Liu Erlong's forehead, just hard enough to make her moan softly.
"What are you thinking about? You Martial Soul Mutation are not stable yet, and your body has not recovered yet. If you mess around, Fire Dragon Martial Soul's mutation will be in vain."
Gu Qing pressed Liu Erlong back into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her hair,
"I'm just going to sleep with you tonight. After you finish Martial Soul Mutation and your body recovers, we'll take our time."
Liu Erlong was struck so hard that he pouted, but when he heard the words "take your time", the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously.
She buried her face in his chest, gave a muffled "hmm", put her hands around Gu Qing's waist, found a comfortable position in his arms and closed her eyes.
Early morning, Blue Tyrant Academy Square.
The college's convening bell rang, and the deep sound of the bell spread throughout the college.
The students rushed from the dormitory building to the square, and the teachers rushed from the office building. In a moment, the whole square was densely packed with people.
On the podium, Gu Qing stood with his hands behind his hands, his posture as straight as a pine tree.
Liu Erlong stood beside him, having put on a neat dark blue outfit. His complexion was much better than last night. The sharp and heroic look between his eyebrows was still there, but it was a little more indescribably soft.
"Today I am convening everyone to announce two things. First, from today on, Blue Tyrant Academy will be officially merged into the Self Academy. This..."
Liu Erlong She pointed to Gu Qing beside her,
"He is the founder and dean of the Self Academy, Gu Qing. From now on, he will be your new dean. I myself will serve as the deputy dean of the Self Academy, fully assisting dean Gu in managing the affairs of the school."
The audience immediately exploded. Although the news of the merger had been circulating for more than half a month, the impact of hearing the announcement of Liu Erlong was completely different.
"Second."
Liu Erlong raised her hand to suppress the noise in the audience. Her voice was still loud, but it had a subtle softness.
"About my relationship with Dean Gu. I know you are all curious about why Dean Gu came back with me in his arms yesterday. I will explain it clearly here now."
She turned her head and glanced at Gu Qing, then turned back to the audience and announced word by word, "Gu Qing is my lover."
The whole place was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The faces of several male teachers who have been secretly in love with Liu Erlong for many years were as exciting as an overturned color palette, switching from livid to pale to flushed in just a few breaths.
Several young female students were holding their chests, with heartbroken expressions written on their faces.
Although I had already had a premonition, when I heard Dean Liu announce it in person, I still felt a sense of disappointment that "all the handsome guys have their names and their masters."
A young male teacher wearing a silver outfit suddenly stood up.
He is the chief instructor of the Blue Tyrant Academy's actual combat department. He is a level 58 Power Attack System Battle Soul King. He is ranked among the top five in the academy.
His chest heaved violently, and the expression on his face switched back and forth between anger and unwillingness:
"Dean Liu! I respect you when I call you dean!"
You merged when you said we would merge, and now you have brought a young man of unknown origin to be our dean, how can you talk about a lover!"
You two are almost 20 years apart in age, do you think we will believe it? Why does this kid become the dean of our Blue Tyrant Academy? Just because he is good-looking?"
"Why?"
Gu Qing held down Liu Erlong's hand that was about to explode, took two steps forward, and stood at the edge of the podium.
He looked down at the silver-robed instructor, his tone as calm as if he was stating a fact,
"My name is Gu Qing, Dean Self Academy, Soul Power, the forty-ninth level peak Battle Soul Ancestor.
It doesn't matter if you don't accept it, all of you, come together. If you can make me take half a step back, or force me to release Martial Soul, I will leave on the spot.
If you can't do it, just stand still and listen to my arrangements."
The whole place was in an uproar again.
Level 49 Battle Soul Ancestor? Isn't this lower than the level of many students present? Why is he so crazy?
Several powerful instructors looked at each other, and the instructor in silver sneered:
"Since the new dean is so confident, we won't be polite. Brothers, come together and give the new dean a 'meeting gift'!"
As soon as he finished speaking, seven figures suddenly appeared from the audience. All seven of them were elite instructors from the Blue Tyrant Academy combat department.
Soul Power ranges from level 50 to level 65. The lineup configuration includes three Power Attack System, two agility attack systems, one control system and one defense system.
With such a lineup, even a Soul Saint level powerhouse would have to worry about three points.
Seven people released Martial Soul at the same time, and various Soul Rings rose from their feet. The air in the square was instantly stirred by Soul Power fluctuations.
The Martial Soul of the three Power Attack System instructors are Silver-Armored War Bear, Crimson Flame Tiger and Iron-Armed Ape, and the Martial Soul of the two agility instructors are Shadow Cat and Gale Falcon.
The control instructor's Martial Soul is a dark green Ghost Vine, and the defense instructor's Martial Soul is a Black Iron Heavy Shield.
Instructor Silver-Armored War Bear was the first to attack. The silver light around his body skyrocketed, and a pair of bear paw shadows formed in the air. He shot Gu Qing head-on with overwhelming force.
Instructor Crimson Flame Tiger followed closely behind, and a red flame shock wave hit Gu Qing from the side amid the roar of the tiger. Instructor Iron-Armed Ape swung two iron-gray fists from the other direction.
The Soul Skill of the three Power Attack System instructors arrived almost at the same time, blocking all the space for Gu Qing to dodge.
At the same time, Ghost Vine, the control instructor, emerged from the ground beneath Gu Qing's feet, and dozens of dark green vines wrapped around his legs.
The defense instructor smashed Black Iron Heavy Shield on the ground, and a translucent defensive barrier enveloped the seven people.
The two agility instructors were hiding in the gap between Power Attack System's companions' attacks. Shadow Cat's dagger and Gale Falcon's claws struck at Gu Qing's blind spot from behind and above his head respectively.
The cooperation of the seven people can be called a textbook-level team siege: controlling the opening hand, strong attack coverage, agility attack to last the attack, and defense to cover the bottom. Every link is seamlessly connected.
Gu Qing stood there without even raising his eyelids.
The Ghost Vine that was wrapped around his legs was gently pulled away by him, and it broke inch by inch. The control instructor groaned, and the backlash made him take three steps back.
Silver-Armored War Bear's bear paw phantom hit his head, he raised his hand to block it, and the bear paw phantom was crushed with one hand like paper, and the fragments turned into light spots and dissipated in the air.
Crimson Flame Tiger's fire shock wave hit him, Mystic Jade Body didn't leave even a trace of scorch marks, and the fire energy was directly swallowed up by the elemental immunity.
Iron-Armed Ape's fist hit his chest, the fist shattered, and his clothes didn't move at all.
Gu Qing reached out with his right hand, fished it up in the air, and accurately grabbed instructor Shadow Cat's wrist. With a slight flick, he threw him and the dagger more than ten meters away, rolling on the ground several times before stopping.
At the same time, he flicked his left hand, and an invisible finger wind hit instructor Gale Falcon's claws.
The sharp claws were shattered inch by inch. Instructor Gale Falcon screamed and did somersaults in the air several times before he managed to stabilize his body. The jaws of his hands had been shattered, and blood was dripping down his fingers.
The defense instructor's face changed drastically, and he pushed Black Iron Heavy Shield to the extreme. The translucent defense barrier solidified a bit, trying to trap Gu Qing in it.
