Twisted Dreams

This is the Guardian Dao Academy of Imperial Capital Foreign Language University, an independent campus on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital.

From the school gate, a wide main road runs through the university, flanked by tall banyan trees.

It was early autumn, the eve of August 15th, and a layer of golden leaves was spread under the banyan trees.

Li Yang walked here, lost in memories.

Memories are like wine; the longer they age, the more mellow they become.

University days were the most carefree period of Li Yang’s life.

He would recklessly squander his youth at school, always saying back then that the most precious thing he had was his youth.

Occasionally, some female university students walked by, full of youthful energy, laughing and chatting in groups.

If Li Yang hadn’t seen the Spiritual Power in them, he would have thought this was just an ordinary university.

In addition to learning cultural subjects, students at this university also study meditation, body techniques, and forging, depending on their major.

So, besides regular buildings like lecture halls, a bathhouse, a cafeteria, a gymnasium, and a library, there is also a Martial Cultivation Tower specifically for the Extraordinaries.

"I really changed the world, didn’t I."

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Li Yang’s mouth.

In his youthful ignorance, he once said that he must become someone who can change the world, someone whose every step could make society tremble.

Hasn’t he already achieved this goal?

"Mr. Li!"

A pleasant female voice came.

Li Yang turned around to see Liu Lingwei, dressed in a red tube top and red yoga pants.

In the chilly golden autumn world, Liu Lingwei’s outfit was exceptionally eye-catching.

Liu Lingwei jogged over to Li Yang, blinking her eyes:

"I saw you right after class. Why didn’t you call me when you arrived?"

Li Yang smiled and said:

"Just having a look around."

Liu Lingwei said:

"Then let me help you with some procedures! I’ll personally handle it for you~

Hehe, you came just in time, Mr. Li. There’s a class that still doesn’t have a Cultivator teacher.

Shall we chat as we walk?"

Li Yang nodded slightly and followed Liu Lingwei toward the office building, asking as he walked:

"Where is Li Tufang?"

Liu Lingwei paused for a moment.

The name Li Tufang was both unfamiliar and familiar.

Of course, she knew Li Tufang was the dean, but no one dared to call him by his name; they all called him Dean Li or Mr. Li.

Even the director of the Security Administration had to respectfully call him teacher when facing Li Tufang.

Because Li Tufang was not only a hidden master in the Extraordinary Circle but also wielded significant power in the secular world.

Liu Lingwei glanced at Li Yang.

Perhaps only he dared to call Li Tufang by name.

This mysterious and powerful Extraordinary.

After all, even the Dragon King had treated him as an honored guest.

Liu Lingwei said:

"Dean Li went to the Security Administration last night and has not returned yet."

Li Yang chuckled softly:

"Interesting."

He flew to the Imperial Capital last night, and Li Tufang left the academy last night; he wondered if Li Tufang was avoiding him.

Li Yang suddenly felt a pair of eyes with ill intentions staring at him from behind.

He turned his head and saw a man in his thirties hastily look away, avoiding eye contact.

Liu Lingwei raised an eyebrow:

"What’s wrong, Mr. Li?"

Li Yang shook his head:

"Nothing."

...

Office Building, Room 602.

Liu Lingwei completed the procedures for Li Yang.

Li Yang sat quietly on the sofa, flipping through a Guardian Dao Academy yearbook.

The procedure was cumbersome, and time dragged on.

Li Yang realized that he seemed to have patience only for Suzu.

At this moment, a man walked in.

The man was wearing a floral shirt, like a peacock displaying its plumage.

"Teacher Liu, is this the newcomer?"

The man approached Liu Lingwei and asked gently.

Li Yang lifted his eyes. This was the man who had been following him at the school.

Liu Lingwei politely said:

"Yes, Teacher Liu, his name is... . . ."

Liu Lingwei stopped midway, closing her mouth.

Li Tufang had instructed not to mention Li Yang’s identity to anyone.

Liu Lingwei actually didn’t know Li Yang’s identity; she only knew he was a wealthy businessman and a mysterious Extraordinary.

Before he left, Li Tufang repeatedly warned Liu Lingwei that Li Yang’s name was top secret.

Liu Lingwei didn’t know whether to say Li Yang’s name or not.

"Li Yang."

Li Yang spoke up.

Liu Lingwei glanced apologetically at Li Yang, not knowing where the guilt came from.

Teacher Liu turned back to stare at Li Yang, with a hint of hostility in his eyes:

"Oh, so you’re Teacher Li."

Teacher Liu approached Li Yang:

"You’re quite lucky to have Teacher Liu personally handle your procedures.

You know, Teacher Liu is not only a dedicated teacher but also the number one beauty of the Guardian Dao Academy."

Teacher Liu’s words were quite unorthodox.

In fact, Teacher Liu didn’t have a high academic background; he was only a graduate from an ordinary third-rate technical college.

He only got the chance to become a university teacher because he benefited from the Spiritual Energy Revival.

Liu Lingwei’s face turned slightly red:

"What are you talking about?"

The so-called number one beauty of the Guardian Dao Academy was just a student joke.

Those students who had nothing better to do in the propaganda club would elect the most beautiful goddess on campus in their public account.

Nobody knew how Liu Lingwei ended up getting elected into the column.

It was the first time a teacher participated in such a student program, and since Liu Lingwei was indeed beautiful, she thus became the number one goddess.

Teacher Liu extended his hand to Li Yang:

"Allow me to introduce myself, Liu Quan.

I am the martial arts teacher for Class Three, Year One of the Guardian Dao Academy, originally from the Talisman Sect.

If you encounter any troublesome matters in society, feel free to talk to me."

The Guardian Dao Academy’s teacher should ideally be an experienced and shrewd Extraordinary with experience in handling abnormal events.

The elites from various Extraordinary Sects were also the targets Guardian Dao Academy sought to recruit.

These teachers held positions at Guardian Dao Academy and had some status in their respective sects.

Li Yang silently admired the tactics of Li Tufang.

Due to the academy’s special attributes, various factions didn’t resent having their sects’ strongmen employed at the Guardian Dao Academy.

On the contrary, they felt that being able to send someone to teach at a public university gave their private organizations a lot of prestige.

The Guardian Dao Academy recruited experts from all sides, enabling them to nurture their students, and also established connections within the Extraordinary Circle.

The Guardian Dao Academy was practically a first-class Extraordinary Influence that gathered the world’s strongest.

Li Yang ignored Liu Teacher’s outstretched hand.

Shaking hands? Not going to happen.

He wouldn’t show goodwill to someone who had shown hostility toward him first.

You say this is a lack of emotional intelligence?

Are you kidding? Does a tiger need to speak emotionally to an ant?

Li Yang kept his head down and continued reading.

Liu Quan withdrew his hand, feeling a bit embarrassed and even more annoyed with Li Yang.

This guy arrived at the school and already started flirting with his goddess, and now won’t even show him any respect.

What’s your deal?

You’re trying to make me lose face in front of the goddess, or what?

Liu Lingwei quickly chimed in:

"Teacher Li, the procedures are done. Would you like to visit the class or take a rest in the dormitory?"

Li Yang wouldn’t stay in the school dormitory.

He had a villa by the sea in the Imperial Capital.

No hardship to endure? Not going to happen.

Li Yang closed the book:

"Let’s check out the students."

He himself was quite curious to see what these students were like.

Liu Lingwei said:

"Alright, the next class is martial arts. If you really don’t need a break, shall we head to the class?"

Li Yang nodded.

Liu Lingwei hesitated for a moment, then looked at Li Yang apologetically:

"Your class is Class Eight, and the students in this class are a bit mischievous.

Hmm... assigning you this class was Dean Li’s idea."

Upon hearing the term Class Eight, Liu Quan let out a smirk.

It turns out this person didn’t have a good relationship with the dean!

Otherwise, why would the dean assign Li Yang to a class full of troublemakers?

Li Yang put on his round hat and headed out of the office.

At this moment, Liu Quan spoke up:

"Mind if I watch Teacher Li’s class?

The students in that class are unruly, and I’m afraid Teacher Li might not handle them well."

Liu Lingwei thought for a moment:

"Alright."
