"You're the Vice Dean of the Soul Tool Department. Don't you even know about the specially selected students? Has your Soul Tool Department never had any specially selected students?!"
Seeing Fan Yu's puzzled expression, Zhou Yi was shocked and quickly asked.
"Never. Shrek Academy has always aimed to cultivate monsters. Whoever is strong, whoever has good talent, gets promoted. There are no specially selected students. And the higher-ups haven't told us to cultivate any, so what's going on?"
Fan Yu suddenly had a premonition.
For a moment, both Zhou Yi and Fan Yu were extremely curious about Su Qingfeng's identity.
"What's the name of this specially selected student?" Fan Yu couldn't help but ask.
"According to Du Weilun, the director of the Martial Soul Department, it should be Su Qingfeng."
Hearing this name, Fan Yu suddenly understood, a smile spreading across his face. He kissed Zhou Yi hard on the face.
"Darling, why didn't you tell me sooner? So he ran off to your Martial Soul Department's Outer Court. Xian Lin'er and I were looking everywhere for him, but we didn't get any information. That Yan Shaozhe, so he's playing it this way, huh?"
Zhou Yi was completely bewildered, her eyes gradually becoming dazed. "You know him? And you're connected to Dean Xian and Dean Yan? What's going on? Who exactly is he?"
"Darling, I have to go find Dean Xian right away. You don't know how worried she's been these past few days, unable to eat or sleep. I'll tell you later when I get back."
Fan Yu sat Zhou Yi down on the sofa and stood up, but Zhou Yi grabbed his arm, her face cold.
"No, you have to tell me right now, or you can forget about getting into my bed again."
Fan Yu sighed, helpless. "Alright, darling, don't be like this. I can't tell you his true identity yet; it's a secret of the academy. And you mustn't tell anyone else. But I can tell you that his status is very high. He's one of the most important figures in the academy. Even though you're a teacher, it's best not to get into any conflicts with him. We're married, I wouldn't do anything to harm you."
"Oh, and there's one more thing I have to tell you. Whatever you do, don't take off his mask, and don't look at his face. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious for both of us!"
Fan Yu suddenly remembered something, and sternly warned Zhou Yi.
He was present at the Sea God Pavilion meeting back then, and he witnessed Su Qingfeng's beauty and temperament, which was simply breathtaking!
He could be sure that anyone would be attracted to that face, especially women; they might even become obsessed!
After speaking, Fan Yu left the room and went straight to the Soul Tool Department, looking for Xian Lin'er.
Zhou Yi was left alone in the room, bewildered. The two sentences contained a massive amount of information, shocking Zhou Yi's mind.
Even Fan Yu said this, so what kind of status did this Su Qingfeng possess? Even ordinary Inner Court disciples wouldn't be so untouchable, right?
Also, why couldn't she look at his face? Was his face scary? Would having two big boils on his face make people disgusted?
It would have been fine if Fan Yu hadn't reminded her; Zhou Yi's impression of Su Qingfeng was just that he was a pretentious, bad student.
Fan Yu's words completely piqued Zhou Yi's interest in Su Qingfeng.
He was too mysterious!
Over here, in the night, Fan Yu quickened his pace, passing through the Martial Soul Department campus and arriving at a rectangular, gray Soul Tool building.
He entered the soul tool elevator directly, ascending to the top floor of the building. He encountered some Soul Tool students who also wanted to get in the elevator, but he directly shooed them away and pressed the close door button.
This left those Soul Tool Department students utterly bewildered, unable to help but wonder if they had offended Dean Fan Yu. He Caitou also rubbed his head: "I haven't seen Fan Yu so flustered in a long time. Is there something urgent?"
Reaching the top floor, Fan Yu knocked on the door of the Dean's office. Xian Lin'er's voice came from inside: "Come in."
"Fan Yu, didn't you just leave? Did Zhou Yi kick you out?" Seeing it was Fan Yu, Xian Lin'er teased. Fan Yu sat down at the tea table, poured himself a cup of water from a disposable paper cup, and smiled:
"Dean, don't joke around. If I tell you this news, you won't be able to sleep tonight."
"What news? I haven't been able to sleep for several nights anyway."
Xian Lin'er said helplessly, "I don't know where Senior Brother has arranged the Holy Son. I've searched the entire Sea God Island, but I haven't seen him. It's a pity for my junior brother's talent; he possesses an Extreme Attribute."
"The essence of Soul Tools is to utilize the energy of soul guiding materials from minerals, driven by soul power. When the attributes match, the better the control over the attribute and the better the quality of the attribute, the less soul power is consumed to output the same soul guiding power. Those with Extreme Attributes can be said to be the best drivers for Soul Tools of their attribute elements."
"My junior brother is not only a genius of the Martial Soul Department, but also a genius of our Soul Tool Department!"
Xian Lin'er sighed.
Of course, the most important thing is, my junior brother is really handsome! Who wouldn't want to personally guide a peerlessly handsome guy in his cultivation?
"It's a pity, Principal Yan won't just hand the Holy Son over to us, and the Holy Son is the Pavilion Master's disciple. The Pavilion Master has the final say on which path he takes."
Fan Yu sighed.
"That's not necessarily true. Teacher dotes on Junior Brother so much; as long as Junior Brother is willing to learn Soul Tools, he will definitely agree. So, we mainly need to convince Junior Brother, but we can't find him at all right now."
"I haven't seen Junior Brother for these past few days, and I really miss him. If I were also in my teens, I'd be sticking to him all day long like Xiao Tao."
"Speaking of Xiao Tao, she's been in a terrible mood these past few days. She keeps pestering Senior Brother about the whereabouts of Little Junior Brother. I bet Senior Brother's been pulling his hair out…"
Xian Lin'er continued, lost in thought, as Su Qingfeng's disappearance had left countless people on Sea God Island heartbroken.
"If only it were that simple. I actually do know where the Holy Son is."
At that moment, Fan Yu, sitting in his chair with his legs crossed, spoke casually.
"What do you—what? You know where Qingfeng is?"
Xian Lin'er was taken aback, but her eyes immediately brightened. She stopped what she was doing and hurried over to Fan Yu, asking:
"How did you find out? Where is he now?"
"Zhou Yi told me. No wonder we couldn't find him."
Fan Yu spread his hands and said, "With a genius like the Holy Son, we always assumed the Pavilion Master would place him in a core location like Sea God Island. We didn't expect that, given the Holy Son's current low level, staying in the Inner Court or the Pavilion wouldn't be ideal."
Xian Lin'er understood immediately after hearing this:
"Is Junior Brother now in the Outer Court?"
"Teacher and Eldest Senior Brother actually put Junior Brother in the Outer Court? That's truly unexpected. With Junior Brother's talent, how can he be cultivated alongside those unremarkable disciples from the Outer Court? Teacher is really... sometimes he's truly muddle-headed!"
"No, I must go find Junior Brother!"
"Achoo~"
At this moment, Mu En, who was lying on a recliner in front of the freshman teaching building, suddenly sneezed loudly and looked around:
Who's cursing this old man?
