The moment Dean Situ's words fell, the entire room went silent, even though it was meant as a joke.
But in the ears of all those responsible, it carried a certain inexplicable authenticity.
It was as if, after saying these words, Dean Situ would really pass the position of Starship Academy's dean to Su Tu.
The kindly smiling elder seemed to possess some magic power, with the ability to make others believe everything he said.
"Dean Situ, you're joking."
At this moment, the clear voice of a young man slowly arose.
Su Tu's black and white eyes, filled with a hint of amusement, looked at Dean Situ, just like a youth joking with an elder.
However, the moment Su Tu spoke, Dean Situ's face maintained its serene smile.
But inside, waves of emotions surged.
"To be unaffected by anything I say."
"As expected of the one who ascended the Celestial Ladder; this level of Heart and Spirit strength is truly rare!"
Every word spoken by Dean Situ, no matter how absurd, was taken seriously by others.
This was not done deliberately, but due to the additional effects of the Dao he cultivated.
Only those with sufficiently strong Heart and Spirit could be completely unaffected by him.
Like those responsible who were just temporarily influenced by his words, believing them for a moment before breaking free.
Yet Su Tu was unaffected from the beginning.
This directly gave him an intuitive sense of Su Tu's innate Heart and Spirit talents.
"Old Zhou, you have a good disciple, huh."
Dean Situ gently smiled, his gaze shifted to Su Tu's side.
Along with his words.
"Old Sheep, your perception is as keen as ever." A robust, elderly voice slowly arose.
Then, space suddenly rippled.
A figure that seemed incredibly frail but felt more majestic than a towering mountain appeared by Su Tu's side,
"Master!" Su Tu respectfully spoke up.
Elder Zhou gently nodded, reaching out to pat Su Tu's shoulder.
And seeing Elder Zhou appear, several of the people in charge respectfully saluted one by one.
The Ten Great Martial Arts Academies have long histories. They knew how much the Heaven-Reaching Dao Lineage had contributed to the Human Race, and Elder Zhou, as the last successor of this lineage, deserved their respect.
At this moment, Director Xing's entire expression showed a hint of surprise. Initially, he thought presenting such a treasure would be decisive enough to immediately sign Su Tu.
That was the Great Dao Bodhi Leaf, an allure hard for even a Daoist Master to resist.
But with the arrival of Dean Situ and Elder Zhou, everyone's attention was diverted.
He now wanted to recruit Su Tu, but with these two present, he felt that whatever he said might be somewhat out of place.
"Imbecile!"
A voice like an angry lion suddenly erupted.
Hearing this familiar voice, Director Xing shivered involuntarily.
Then, the Bodhi Leaf in his hands flashed with a faint light, subsequently forming the image of an incredibly strong elder.
"I told you, how could you trust him to bring this out?"
Dean Situ and Zhou Wuliang looked at the figure, their eyes without the slightest surprise.
"Old Zhou, long time no see."
The elder first spoke politely to Zhou Wuliang.
"Old Sheep, I knew you'd be up to some trickery!"
The elder spoke with evident displeasure.
This figure was none other than the principal of the Great Wall Martial Arts School.
"Little Tu, let me introduce you to this person, this is Headmaster Xing Yinluo of the Great Wall Martial Arts School, Principal Xing."
Zhou Wuliang said to Su Tu.
"Greetings, Principal Xing."
Su Tu respectfully greeted him.
"Save the pleasantries for later, child, this Bodhi Leaf can help you soar to great heights. With your talent combined with the Bodhi Leaf, I guarantee you have the potential for the Supreme future!"
"I know you lean towards Starship Academy in your heart, and loyalty is indeed an admirable trait,
but assessing the situation, seizing every opportunity, and becoming stronger before giving back to others isn't a bad choice either?"
Principal Xing got straight to the point.
"I say, is it really okay to say this in front of me, child? Indeed, I currently don't have treasures of the same level as the Bodhi Leaf to offer."
"But I can guarantee that within three months, in the first three months of your admission, I can compensate you with at least two treasures no less than the Bodhi Leaf!"
Dean Situ spoke at this time.
"Haha! What a grand statement you make, do you really think the academy is your one-man show?"
"Two treasures no less than the Bodhi Leaf, even if you agree, will those old guys agree?"
Principal Xing let out a cold laugh.
"Su Tu, you must understand that the world lacks nothing more than those who promise the moon; only what you hold in your hands is truly yours...."
However, just as Principal Xing was speaking to Su Tu.
A slightly mocking voice casually rose: "So you do know that there are plenty who promise the moon in this world..."
As the voice sounded, everyone's eyes involuntarily turned towards the source of the voice, only to see an elderly woman with a youthful visage, whose appearance on the side window was unnoticeable.
She leaned on a dragon-headed cane, her eyes blazing.
This was none other than Madam She!
"Jin Hua!" At the sight of Madam She, Elder Zhou and Principal Xing simultaneously exclaimed.
Subsequently, Su Tu felt a gust of wind beside him, and upon turning back, Elder Zhou had already vanished without a trace.
"Coward, always running away!"
