Ten teenagers stood in a row. Xie Feng looked at it and tapped his chin:
"They all look good. Danfeng Academy has accepted them all! City Lord, are there any more? I wish to recruit twenty students. If there are suitable ones, we can recruit them all in Aurora City!"
"You have high requirements. If you want to enter your academy, you must not be mediocre! These are the most talented children in Aurora City!" the city lord said with a smile.
Lu Yan frowned slightly. She poked Xie Feng's arm lightly and said secretly, "Mr.
Xie Feng's chin slightly nodded, indicating understanding. He closed his fan bones, tapped the table, and looked directly at the city lord: "Is it really gone?"
The smile that the city lord had been maintaining froze slightly. He glanced at Lu Yan and Xie Feng said, "I am asking you, what is the city lord doing to see Miss Lu Yan?"
The city lord smiled and said: "It seems that the boss is determined to take them away?"
Lu Yan covered his mouth and smiled: "So, I found Mr. Xie."
"Sorry, man, I can't give it!"
The city lord shook his head, his tone was gentle but firm.
Xie Feng raised the corner of his mouth and said jokingly: "It seems that they are unique geniuses that are rare to see in a thousand years, which is why the city lord is so reluctant to part with them!"
The city lord said: "No!"
Xie Feng asked: "Then what is the reason that makes it so difficult for you to talk about it?"
"Those three children are just civilians!"
"That's it?"
"?"
The city lord was stunned for a moment. Xie Feng actually downplayed such a big thing and didn't even care?!
Xie Feng said: "What about civilians? The purpose of Danfeng Academy is that everyone is equal! Oh... maybe they have difficulties and cannot afford the tuition. I can temporarily waive the tuition for them and pay it back after they graduate!"
The city owner waved his hand: "Dean Xie misunderstood! It's not that they can't afford the tuition, but because they have a humble status and are not qualified to receive education!"
Xie Feng put away his smile, raised his eyes, looked at the city lord, and said in a deep voice: "Danfeng Academy ignores any origin! Everyone can receive education under the same roof!"
"In our Star Clan, family status is the most respected, and only the middle and upper nobles are eligible to enjoy all rights. This is an unshakable system that has been in place for thousands of years! Dean Xie, this is the Star Clan, please act according to our rules!"
The city lord looked him in the eye and firmly defended his rules.
The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point, with a hint of tension!
Lu Yan was a little nervous. She was worried that Xie Feng would be impulsive. After all, the latter was straightforward and had clear likes and dislikes!
"Lu Yan, let's go!"
Unexpectedly, Xie Feng just frowned, stood up and left, "I have nothing to say to him anymore!"
Different ways, don’t work together!
Although he hoped that the three civilian youths would enter Danfeng Academy, he did not need to change their deep-rooted thoughts.
When the city lord talked about the unequal rights between commoners and nobles, he was so calm and so accustomed to it, which shows that he deeply agrees with this concept!
Xie Feng has nothing to do with the Star Clan. He will not change other people's thousands-year-old system, but he cannot give up his own principles.
So, it’s best to leave!
Lu Yan's dark eyebrows furrowed slightly and she hurriedly followed.
The remaining young people looked at each other and asked, "City Lord, what should we do?"
"casual!"
The city lord flicked his sleeves and sat down with a blue complexion.
He is not angry, he just doesn't like Xie Feng's ideas. He doesn't understand why Xie Feng would say the word equality. In Star Clan, this word is so shocking!
How can the noble lotus be equal to the mud?
How can a phoenix in the sky be equal to a sparrow?
He can't understand!
…
Xie Feng left Aurora City, and Lu Yan followed him. The two of them were silent all the way.
"Mr. Xie, what are you thinking about?"
"nothing."
"Don't be angry. The collision of two ideas can easily cause conflicts..."
"I don't have the ambition to help the world, so I'm not angry. I just don't want to talk to the city lord. Playing the piano to a cow is boring!"
Xie Feng shook his head and whispered.
They took two steps, and a man appeared in front of them. He was dressed in white and had a cold temperament. A pair of dark green eyes stared straight at them.
"The patriarch is really busy with political affairs, so he is late! Mr. Xie, this is the patriarch of the Star Clan, Pei Jue!"
Lu Yan joked, then turned around and introduced.
Xie Feng said with a smile: "Since you and Lu Yan are friends, let's talk!"
Pei Jue looked at him indifferently and said nothing.
Lu Yan whispered, "Mr. Xie, this is Kong Qiusu's apprentice. He is an unparalleled military scholar! Aren't you looking for a teacher?"
Xie Feng said: "Teacher? Him? He can't teach me."
Lu Yan frowned: "He is very talented in literature and has theoretical knowledge of military Confucianism..."
Xie Feng asked: "Do you know who Kong Qiusu is?"
Lu Yan's eyes widened, and she raised her eyebrows in confusion.
Xie Feng smiled, "He is my senior brother!"
Lu Yan was shocked!
She blinked and tried her best to buffer herself, feeling a huge wave in her heart...
She is a member of the Demon Emperor Chu Kuang, and the Demon Emperor is the second senior brother Xie Feng!
Now, she heard from the client himself that the soldier Kong Qiusu was his elder brother!
This configuration! This life experience! This backstage!
One word, scary!
"Hiss! With this background, I find it strange that you don't walk sideways..." Lu Yan took a breath.
"Hush, keep it secret!" Xie Feng said.
"Okay!" Lu Yan nodded obediently.
Pei Jue looked at Aurora City, his eyes were slightly melancholy, and he asked slowly, "Lu Yan, aren't you coming to Star Clan to recruit students? Why are there no students?"
Lu Yan said: "We have taken a fancy to three good young men, but because of their status as civilians, we cannot take them away."
"That's right, I understand!"
Pei Jue nodded.
Xie Feng said: "You are the leader of the clan, you should have something to do."
The corner of Pei Jue's mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled bitterly, "Well, it really doesn't happen!"
Xie Feng shrugged, "Then, you two should talk! The academy has just been built, and it is just an empty shell with no books or advanced equipment. I have to go back to Cangmo Mountain to take care of it."
"Isn't it true that only the Star Clan... can divide people into three, six or nine levels and respect the noble..."
When Xie Feng was about to leave, Pei Jue whispered, seeming to be asking himself or others.
Xie Feng did not answer.
Pei Jue said again: "Just now, you walked out of the city. From your still angry face, I saw your confusion and anger. You are one of the few people I have met who is angry because of this system.
There are too many people who are only numb, accustomed, and obedient to this... Among them, there are Star Tribe people and foreigners…"
Xie Feng sneered: "Do you think I am angry?"
Pei Jue didn't answer, he let out a slight sigh. For some reason, he, who had always concealed himself very well, couldn't help but want to say what was in his heart when he met the former...
