Not long after, the exchange slots for the Star Luo Continent were finalized.
Grade One Class One had two teams.
The Zero Class Team included: Fang Yang, Gu Yue, Na'er, Xu Xiaoyan, Xie Xie, Tang Wulin, Zhang Yangzi, and Wang Jinxi.
The Genius Team consisted of Luo Guixing, Xu Yucheng, Yang Nianxia, Zheng Yiran, Wu Sido, Ye Xinglan, Zhou Hanyou, and Zhou Tian'er.
Second Year Class One had Yuanen Yehui and Le Zhengyu.
Due to Outer Court Dean Cai Yue'er being temporarily assigned to other tasks by Vice Pavilion Master Long Yueye,
the leader for this exchange activity would be Scarlet Dragon Douluo Zhuo Shi, with Shen Yi and Wu Changkong accompanying as supervising teachers.
Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, less than a month remained until their departure for the Star Luo Continent.
Sea God Island, Sea God Pavilion.
Yun Ming looked at Fang Yang, who stood before him, and said in a deep voice, "Fang Yang, on this trip to the Star Luo Continent, take good care of Na'er."
"Rest assured, Pavilion Master," Fang Yang responded calmly.
"Mm."
Yun Ming nodded slightly.
Seeing Fang Yang's steady and reliable demeanor, he finally felt a bit more at ease.
At the same time, in another elegant room within the Sea God Pavilion.
"Na'er, on this trip to the Star Luo Continent, you must be careful," Ya Li said softly, gently holding Na'er's hand and admonishing her.
Thinking of Na'er leaving home for such a long journey for the first time, her eyes were filled with reluctance and worry.
Na'er showed a sweet smile and obediently replied, "Godmother, please don't worry, Na'er will be good and definitely won't cause any trouble."
"Mm."
Ya Li nodded, gently stroking Na'er's small head.
She then took out two items: a delicate small gun and a small angel pendant emitting a soft glow.
"Godmother, what are these?"
Na'er curiously examined the two seemingly ordinary items that subtly emanated energy fluctuations.
"This small gun contains your teacher's Ninth Spirit Ability, Sky-Shattering Sun Shot, and this angel pendant contains my Ninth Spirit Ability, Angel's Blessing."
Ya Li explained softly, "When you encounter danger, just use them."
"Thank you, Godmother!"
Na'er accepted the two precious items.
Afterward, after bidding farewell to Yun Ming and Ya Li, Fang Yang took Na'er back to the Outer Court together.
Ya Li watched their receding figures and softly said, "Ming Ge, I'm still worried about Na'er."
"Don't worry, with Zhuo Shi there, and the Spirit Ability Seals we left," Yun Ming comforted her gently.
"Mm, alright."
Ya Li nodded gently, her eyes still holding a hint of concern... The next day, in the Grade One Class One classroom.
Wu Changkong walked behind the podium and announced the first matter of the day.
Wu Changkong walked to the front of the podium and announced with a serious expression, "Members of the Zero Class Team and the Genius Team, pay attention, today is your last day of classes."
"Tomorrow morning, we will depart for the Star Luo Continent to participate in a one-year exchange program."
"Teacher Shen Yi and I will accompany you as supervising teachers. Your class positions will temporarily be filled by..."
"Alright, Teacher Wu," Fang Yang and the others responded in unison.
After Wu Changkong finished explaining the relevant matters, he didn't give the students much time to process the information and immediately began today's lesson.
Most of the first-year students at this time were not in the mood to listen to the lecture.
Although they already knew that the Zero Class Team and the Genius Team would represent the Academy in an exchange study in the Star Luo Continent, hearing Wu Changkong's formal announcement still caused no small stir in their hearts.
After all, the two strongest teams of their first year were leaving this time!
After class, Wu Changkong left the classroom directly. The remaining students began to discuss animatedly.
"Haha, we finally made it through," Xie Xie stretched, his tone relaxed.
Tang Wulin quickly echoed, "Yeah, yeah."
Hearing this, Fang Yang asked thoughtfully, "Wu Lin, Senior Ouyang Zixin's name isn't on the Academy's list."
"I know that," Tang Wulin nodded.
"Oh?"
Everyone's gaze immediately focused on Tang Wulin.
"Tang Wulin, tell us honestly," Xie Xie said.
Tang Wulin took half a step back and suddenly changed the subject, "Xie Xie, you're from Chengdu, right?"
"You are!"
Xie Xie immediately retorted, "Ai, people's prejudices really are a big mountain."
Fang Yang chuckled, "Xie Xie, if you hadn't found a partner, I'd really think you were the Young Master of Chengdu from Donghai City."
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
"You guys really are..."
Xie Xie shook his head helplessly, "I like girls, and I'm not like Le Zhengyu, who relies on his family background to bully men and women and commit all sorts of evil."
"That's true,"
Tang Wulin agreed with a nod; he indeed didn't have a good impression of Le Zhengyu.
"Wu Lin, don't change the subject."
Xie Xie brought the topic back, "Quick, tell us about Senior Ouyang."
"Alright."
Tang Wulin honestly confessed, "Senior Sister and Senior Sister went through the Forging Master Association's quota, not through the Academy."
"So that's how it is."
Everyone suddenly understood.
"Then why didn't you go through the Forging Master Association?" Xie Xie asked curiously.
"Xie Xie..."
Tang Wulin said somewhat helplessly, "I already have a spot here at Shrek Academy, what would I need a Forging Master Association spot for?"
"You gave the Forging Master Association's spot to Senior Ouyang?" Fang Yang asked.
"That's right."
Tang Wulin admitted frankly.
"You're such a love-struck fool," Xie Xie couldn't help but complain.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Xie noticed everyone suddenly quiet down, looking at his back with strange expressions.
"What's wrong with you guys?" Xie Xie was confused.
Fang Yang kindly reminded him, "Xie Xie, look behind you."
"Oh? So you're quite the player, then?" Zheng Yiran's cold voice came from behind.
Xie Xie immediately froze, slowly turned around, and said with a forced smile, "Yiran, I was just joking..."
"Hmph."
Zheng Yiran let out a soft snort and turned to leave.
"Xie Xie, aren't you going to coax her?" Xu Xiaoyan reminded him.
"Right, right!"
Xie Xie finally reacted and quickly chased after her.
"Poor Xie Xie..." Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, Wu Sido and Ye Xinglan also walked over.
Before Fang Yang could react, Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan had already tacitly stood by his side.
"This is the familiar Shura Field again," Tang Wulin muttered softly.
"Indeed."
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi echoed, then quickly went to greet their respective girlfriends, Zhou Hanyou and Zhou Tian'er.
"This..."
Seeing this, Tang Wulin fell silent.
He looked out the window, a surge of longing for Senior Ouyang Zixin welling up in his heart... In a corner of the classroom, Xu Lizhi silently watched this warm scene, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes.
Watching Fang Yang surrounded by everyone, his heart was filled with jealousy and unwillingness.
"Isn't it just the Holy Spirit Church? I, Xu Lizhi, will join."
Xu Lizhi clenched his fists, secretly vowing in his heart, "Fang Yang, this time I will make sure you never return..."
