"But still, I have to thank all of you!"
His voice trembled slightly, "You have no idea, in these past few days, the threshold of my office door has nearly been worn out... Everyone's been trying to use connections to get their kids in, those parents who once couldn't care less about our school now couldn't be more polite!"
"And those investnts."
Liu Feifan seed genuinely excited, "In the past, I had to run around tirelessly just to apply for funding, constantly dealing with various social engagents, nodding and bowing, but now millions in investnts are being offered proactively!"
"The new Spirit Beast Breeding Center, the Comprehensive Battle Hall, and a new building, the blueprints are out, and construction is about to start."
"Our school, thanks to you all, is really about to take off!"
"Principal, this is what the Experintal School deserves."
Lin Guang said sternly.
"Ah, it's just a small favor." Vishdair said while eating a plate of peeled Thousand Waves Shrimp at, "You really run a good school."
Lisa also bead a big smile, "No need to be so courteous! Uncle Liu has helped us a lot too!"
Both of them were quite familiar with Liu Feifan.
Even Chelina nodded slightly at him.
In fact...
In the eyes of Lin Guang and the others, Liu Feifan indeed was a respectable principal.
His purity and idealism might be why he could lead the Experintal School to develop step by step to where it is today.
Lin Guang chatted with acquaintances, discussing past events, while the three girls left him so space to go eat elsewhere and chat with Leng Shengnan.
After the congratulatory words from familiar faces, a woman in neat professional attire quietly approached Lin Guang.
It was Lei Wanting.
"I've already said my congratulations on the way back."
"This ti I'm here to thank you."
She raised her glass of white wine, her eyes showing sincere gratitude.
"I didn't expect you, the champion, to still think of such 'small matters,' didn't ntion it on the airship, seems like you planned to surprise ."
Lin Guang smiled.
"Leveraging your championship montum, Director Kong Guofeng finally agreed to support us. Right after we parted ways from the air whale today, I received the notification, and they've dealt with the black market issues."
She sighed softly, "The black market is essentially a hidden, unregulated market for trading spiritual materials and Spirit Beasts."
"Wherever there are people, there will be transactions, hence such places can never be completely eradicated, which is why everyone turned a blind eye to it initially."
"But now... it has been taken over and managed by the Spirit Alliance, making it much more standardized."
"At the very least, we now refuse all Spirit Beasts hunted in protected areas, and we refuse all Spirit Beasts in extrely poor conditions. To sell in the black market, one must either handle them as spiritual materials directly without tornt or treat them well."
"By punishing their profits, we can utterly cut off the incentives for tornting Spirit Beasts or poaching protected Spirit Beasts."
"Moreover, the new black market strictly forbids hunting other Spirit Master's Contractual Partners."
"Those unsellable Spirit Beasts will ultimately be sent to the Spirit Alliance's sanctuary rather than spend their remaining lives there."
Lin Guang nodded, feeling a bit emotional.
The promise he made in his heart on the day he bought Vishdair for 50 Credit Points had basically been fulfilled.
Lei Wanting clinked her glass with his, took a sip of the clear liquid, and said with so emotion, "Nowadays, the power of the Divine Heart Association has shrunk considerably under multiple attacks, to the point where it has basically withdrawn from Zhen Sheng City."
"The Spirit Alliance will continue to pursue them in other cities and even other provinces, though this matter is not under my jurisdiction for now."
"However, we still don't know who the elusive leader of the Divine Heart Association is, nor their two vice presidents."
She revealed a bitter smile, "That leader couldn't possibly be a Seven-Star True Master already, could they? It's very likely their influence has reached overseas long ago..."
Lin Guang's eyes paused slightly, then he smiled calmly without any indication of change, "So, senior sister, are you free now?"
"Not quite, if only darkness could disappear so easily..."
With a deep sigh, Lei Wanting's tone beca a bit more serious, "Our branch is now investigating another matter related to an underground church. They seem to have been rooted in Fenghai Province for a long ti, only recently becoming noticeable."
"Once gods and demons are involved, the complexity increases exponentially, which may be even more troubleso than the Divine Heart Association."
Lin Guang raised an eyebrow.
——An underground church?
For this land, that is a very unfamiliar term.
Great Xia is actually not against faith, because it has many Divine Beasts, if soone really wants to believe in a Divine Beast, that's absolutely fine, who knows, one might actually notice your sincerity among the crowd and grant blessings, that's not impossible.
Spirit beasts like Battle Tops ca about this way.
However...
An underground church undoubtedly ans believing in sothing unspeakable.
Is it so kind of perilous existence like an evil god from the Otherworld? Or so strange Talent? Or perhaps sothing related to the Demon Race?
He just opened his mouth, about to speak, but Lei Wanting interrupted, "Don't get involved in this."
She looked at Lin Guang seriously, "You're about to go to college, just focus on cultivating and improving yourself."
"We'll handle the matters here, the Spirit Alliance and I. If you want to help, becoming stronger is the best way to help ."
