Chapter 229 - 230 Array
"Let’s go to the council hall first," Xuanyuan Mingkong smiled and nodded as he saw the situation he had anticipated unfold.
The council hall of the Immortal Ancient Academy had been used several times more frequently in the past few months than before.
The Mortal World was in chaos, and the Immortal Ancient Academy had both the responsibility and the duty to protect the Mortal World; most of the academy’s students had already embarked on their journey, spreading out to various parts of the Mortal World to help the major empires protect their people.
The council hall can be said to be one of the oldest buildings in the Immortal Ancient Academy. At the establishment of the academy, aside from the various branches, there was this council hall, which, although called a council hall, was built like a dining hall. This is also a very ancient tradition of the Immortal Ancient Academy.
"All important matters in the Immortal Ancient Academy are generally decided over drinks," said the first dean of the academy, though it was unclear whether this was because he was a drinker.
However, looking at the portraits left by successive deans, the first dean of the Immortal Ancient Academy was a rather handsome middle-aged man carrying a longsword, with a heroic look between his brows and a wine gourd at his waist. According to rumors, the first dean’s favorite thing to do was to control his sword to fly high into the sky, greeting the first rays of morning sun with a hearty drink.
With such a dean who loved his liquor, it’s not surprising that the council hall was built like a dining hall—after all, in the early days of establishing the academy, various matters needed to be settled, often keeping them in the council hall for a day. Though it seems a bit playful, eating and drinking appeared to be the best option.
"Although this raid was fraught with immense danger, the final outcome achieved the intended purpose."
As everyone took their seats, the only person considered an outsider, the Sword Venerate, also found his place.
