"Yay, we're going home."
Zhang Yi and Ankaga replied excitedly.
"Yes, make sure to take this opportunity to go back. But you must return before the year-end to participate in the public award ceremony."
Su Ming advised the two.
"Alright, then we're off."
Zhang Yi and the others left together.
...
Several hours later.
Su Ming returned to Imperial Court Academy with bouquets of fresh flowers in hand.
The academy remained just as vibrant and lively, with junior students bustling around in their uniforms.
Su Ming headed straight for the cemetery.
More than half a month ago, the academy held a grand memorial meeting, welcoming back the sacrificed students, placing their ashes and belongings into the cemetery, but Su Ming and the others missed it.
Soon, Su Ming arrived at the cemetery entrance. Captain Gatte, who was guarding, paused in surprise upon seeing Su Ming. However, he did not greet him, only watched silently as Su Ming walked in.
"Captain, what are you looking at?"
