Reentering Mijia Mountain

Having finally passed through the Academy gates, Huo Hai at last vented the anger in his heart. Yet after venting it, he did not feel the slightest bit excited. He had still been too impulsive, too lacking in composure.

Honestly, how could I have spoken like that? Fortunately, he is merely a squad captain at the Academy and holds no real authority. Otherwise, this would have been troublesome. Huo Hai felt a burst of relief. It seemed he really needed to temper his temper. As his strength continued to rise, he would come into contact with more and more people from the upper ranks. This sort of resentment toward the wealthy was truly unacceptable.

At the very least, when facing people he should not offend, he needed to learn some artful ways of speaking. Huo Hai rather hated himself for not paying attention to and studying such knowledge before.

The only thing that reassured Huo Hai was that Tan Wu, though a high-ranking figure in the Academy with great status and influence, did not possess enough influence to significantly affect the Southern Cloud Kingdom.

As for spreading what had been said today, Huo Hai was not worried at all. At such a critical juncture, that patriotic fellow would certainly not do anything harmful to the entire Southern Cloud Kingdom. Even if he truly did, without evidence and with Huo Hai refusing to admit it, what could anyone do to him? Huo Hai was not like other people. In the previous battle to wipe out the Demonfolk, he had rendered outstanding service.

No matter who it was or what they thought of him, they could not deny his merits. With those achievements, most people would absolutely refuse to believe that he truly harbored any ill will toward the Southern Cloud Kingdom.
