Fan Chen, under the disdainful glances of everyone, cut a large piece of roasted at and placed it on the campfire to grill.
Wang Qian said bitterly:
"Fan Chen, I hope your roast gets burnt."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Fan Chen gave a mischievous smile and said:
"Don't rush, I'll tell you a story about the Flying Leopard Mountain Range. Everyone knows there are many demon beasts in the Flying Leopard Mountain Range, and their levels aren't low.
I once stumbled upon a historical record of Flying Leopard Academy in the library, stating that the hunting zone of Flying Leopard Academy extends 300 kiloters.
"Are you sure you read that right? It's clearly 200 kiloters."
Gong Yu said.
Fan Chen tore off a piece of cooked at from the roast and chewed it, saying:
"I thought I'd read it wrong too, but after checking the book carefully, it clearly stated that Flying Leopard Academy's hunting zone was 300 kiloters away, not the current 200 kiloters.
So, I asked a few instructors, and they admitted that many years ago it was indeed 300 kiloters, but it was only changed to 200 kiloters when Dean Xinghai took over."
"Huh? I've been at the academy for more than ten years and never heard of this."
Xiao He was also surprised.
Fan Chen smiled softly, tore off another piece of roast at, and said:
"Very few people know about this because it happened decades ago. The academy has changed students a dozen tis or more since then. Apart from the instructors at the ti, none of the current students know about this,
I was curious and wanted to investigate the reason, but after asking several instructors, none would answer directly,
They all just laughed and told to ask Dean Xinghai."
Just as everyone was getting engrossed in the story, Fan Chen turned the roast over the campfire and tore off another big piece to chew.
Wang Qian mumbled:
"Brother Fan, can't you finish the story before eating?"
"Haha, don't be impatient, I'm really a bit hungry today."
Fan Chen took a few big bites of at, then continued:
"Back then, I was quite the figure among the students, and I was well acquainted with Dean Xinghai; I was even invited to a few als at his ho,"
As he recounted, Fan Chen seed to recall his youthful days, a happy smile spread across his face.
"You know, Dean Xinghai had a daughter who almost married back then,"
"Get to the point and speak plainly!"
Fan Chen's pleasant recollection was abruptly interrupted by everyone, and he had to smile awkwardly and say:
"Dean Xinghai's daughter was a real beauty, the academy's top belle at the ti,"
Everyone looked at Fan Chen with disdain, so he quickly shut up.
These days Fan Chen had joined Yang Xiao's team, and after experiencing life-and-death battles with various demon beasts daily, their relationships quickly strengthened, making them quite familiar with each other.
Xiao He laughed and said:
"Fan Chen, I always thought of you as a cool, handso, and super strong guy. I didn't expect you to be so narcissistic."
"Exactly, you're so long-winded. You're nothing like the impression of a dashing, capable, and mysterious senior I had; it's breaking my worldview."
"Get to the point, stop keeping us in suspense, or we won't listen anymore."
...
Everyone besieged Fan Chen as he gave a chuckle, ate a few more pieces of roast at, and said:
"Okay, now to the point... Oh? You guys really aren't interested in Dean Xinghai's daughter liking ?"
"If you digress again, I'll strangle you."
Wang Qian laughed.
Everyone burst into laughter and attacked him again, leaving Fan Chen no choice but to get back on track,
"Back then, using my favor with Dean Xinghai, coupled with my curiosity, I went to his office to ask about it,
Dean Xinghai was initially surprised and didn't deny it but asked how I knew about it. So, I showed him the history book of the academy,
Dean Xinghai smiled slightly and said, 'Yes, that's indeed the case.'
Fan Chen paused to look at everyone.
This ti no one spoke, each gave him a sidelong glance.
Fan Chen, feeling awkward, tore off a piece of roast at, chewed it with his mouth full of oil, smiled apologetically, and continued:
"I asked the dean why he changed the hunting zone of the Flying Leopard Mountain Range from 300 kiloters to 200 kiloters. Dean Xinghai had always liked and didn't hide it; he straight up told a story he personally experienced,
Back then, Dean Xinghai led students into the Flying Leopard Mountain Range to hunt, and in a mont of excitent ventured alone deep inside. While pursuing a demon beast, he accidentally strayed into the 300-kiloter forbidden zone,
He didn't manage to catch the prey, and it seed he got lost in there too, so he wandered the forest and encountered an Emperor Level Realm Flying Giant Python,
The python wanted to eat Dean Xinghai, and they imdiately fought fiercely in the valley.
Dean Xinghai said that the combat power of the Flying Giant Python was equal to his. They fought in the valley for a day and a night, and in the end, the Flying Giant Python used its special demon beast combat power to defeat Dean Xinghai,
Dean Xinghai was on his last breath, knowing he was dood. Facing the gigantic mouth of the python ready to devour him, he closed his eyes,
But just as the python was about to eat him, a loud roar echoed through the valley, and a 100-ter-long giant Flying Leopard leaped in, standing near Dean Xinghai,
The Flying Giant Python saw the giant Flying Leopard and reluctantly said, 'This is my prey,'
The giant Flying Leopard growled, 'Either die or leave imdiately,'
The Flying Giant Python hesitated, having been exhausted from fighting Dean Xinghai for a day and a night, and couldn't possibly match the giant Flying Leopard now, so it reluctantly gave the giant Flying Leopard a glance and left."
Everyone listened intently, but Fan Chen inconsiderately paused again and prepared to tear at the roast again.
Yang Xiao said:
"Fan Chen, as our senior brother, can you have so decency? You're leaving the story half-finished again. Do you think that's appropriate? Can't you finish it before eating? There's a whole ten-thousand-pound demon beast left for you to eat; it could fill you up!"
Fan Chen awkwardly smiled, set the roast aside, rubbed his hands, and continued:
"After the Flying Giant Python left, the giant Flying Leopard glanced at the fallen Xinghai and said, 'Stop playing dead; you have healing dicine with you, hurry and take a few pills,'
Hearing this, the dean quickly got up, took two Essence Blood Pills, caught his breath, looked at the giant Flying Leopard, and asked,
'Why did you save ?'
'I didn't save you out of kindness; I saved you under the condition that if you don't agree to my condition, I'll eat you too.'
'Ah, what condition, tell ?'
'I know you're the dean of Flying Leopard Academy, and it's not difficult for you. I hope you can move the hunting zone back from 300 kiloters to 200 kiloters; stepping back a hundred kiloters doesn't affect your daily hunting activities.'
The dean was shocked, not understanding why this giant Flying Leopard posed such a strange request, so he said, 'I can step back a hundred kiloters, but I want to know why.'
The giant Flying Leopard snorted disdainfully, 'What qualifications do you have to negotiate with ?'
Dean Xinghai could only nod helplessly, 'Okay, I promise you, I'll step back a hundred kiloters.'
After resting for a while and recovering so Qi, the giant Flying Leopard carried him on its broad back, flew him to a spot around 200 kiloters away, and set him down,
'You're safe here, you can go back now, and I hope you keep your promise.'
'Thank you for saving my life.'
The dean was about to leave when the giant Flying Leopard suddenly called out to him,
'Wait!'
