After briefly commenting on and correcting the academy's students, Dean Xin went into the inner room of the school hall and drank a cup of tea brewed with Blood Dragon Fire Ginseng, allowing himself some time to recuperate.
Once his condition stabilized, he returned to the podium, sat down, and began formulating the latest cultivation routes for each student.
Bell, Meng Yiran, and Dugu Yan—known as the three pillars of the academy and also the most familiar with its situation after two years of experience in Slaughter City—were naturally Xin's primary sources for reporting recent developments.
At that moment, they stood by Xin's side, recounting everything that had happened in the academy over the past two years. In truth, there had not been much internal upheaval, but two noteworthy events had occurred outside.
The first was the completion of both the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda branch and the Spirit Hall branch, which now stood on either side of Heart of Fire Academy. This positioned the academy as a localized reflection of the continent's broader power structure.
The second event involved visits from the Tian Dou Royal Family and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
The Tian Dou Royal Family had come to express goodwill and to inquire about the academy's stance toward the royal court. Upon learning that Xin was absent at the time, they could only return without receiving a definitive answer.
When the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan arrived, Xin had already anticipated their purpose without needing his disciples to explain. It was nothing more than seeking so-called justice for Yu Tianxin and Yu Tianheng, who had been severely injured during the Soul Master Competition.
Seeing that Dean Xin was not present, Poison Douluo eventually emerged from the flower garden and persuaded the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's spirit masters to leave.
"The two heavenly prodigies were beaten so badly by you that they were left searching for their teeth on the ground, suffering psychological trauma and lingering mental distress. It is only natural that they would not let this go."
"If they come again, and it is only spirit masters of seventy or eighty levels, you need not fear them within the academy. If the old sect master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan comes personally, aside from Poison Guardian, you may also use the Cherry Blossom Token to invite Sword Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Branch. He will grant me this favor."
Xin instructed Bell, unable to suppress a light cough. He quickly regained his composure.
Meng Yiran, who specialized in hidden weapons and soul guidance principles, was sharp-eyed and attentive. She immediately noticed something and asked:
"Teacher, did your trip to Slaughter City leave you with some lingering injury? I wanted to ask earlier when you were giving your speech during the assembly."
Xin shook his head calmly.
"It is nothing. Just a slight disturbance in my spirit power due to a minor accident, and I caught a bit of a chill from the cold autumn wind. In any case, I am also a Titled Douluo—what problem could there be?"
"I hope that's all it is." Meng Yiran replied, still slightly worried. "There are more and more junior sisters in the academy now. Teacher, you must take care of your body and not overwork yourself."
"If you need anything, just give the order. I can even supervise the junior sisters' cultivation. If Teacher overworks himself, then our Heart of Fire Academy will truly collapse."
