"Why am I suddenly so busy?"

A shout rang out as Jiang Chen smiled and walked over from the stairway.

"Mr Jiang!"

"Mr. Jiang!"

"Young Master!"

"Lord Xue!"

Everyone rose to greet him.

"Take your seats, everyone!"

Jiang Chen waved his hand and took the main seat left vacant for him, then turned to look at Fu Ling'er and Lou Qiangqiang: "Looking for me?"

"Um..." Fu Ling'er glanced at the Medicine Saint, hesitated, and didn't speak.

"Go ahead and say it, your grandfather's opinion doesn't count." Jiang Chen chuckled as he ruffled Fu Ling'er's hair.

The Medicine Saint rolled his eyes at Jiang Chen but didn't stop him.

"It's like this, the seniors of the fourth year are graduating, and the school has organized a party next Monday. Qiangqiang and I have a performance, and I want... I want big brother to come watch." Fu Ling'er spoke in a small voice.

Everyone was briefly stunned, having originally thought that Fu Ling'er and Lou Qiangqiang had come to see Jiang Chen for something important, but didn't expect it was just to invite Jiang Chen to watch a school performance. This...

It felt like a five or six-year-old trying to drag a national leader to go play hacky sack with them. However you thought about it, it seemed comical!

"Ling'er, don't be silly!" The Medicine Saint frowned and softly reprimanded.

"I'm not being silly. What's wrong with my big brother taking a break when he's so tired every day? Besides, this is still a big brother's graduation ceremony! College graduation might not seem significant to you, but for an ordinary person, it's a very important occasion."

Fu Ling'er pouted: "Big brother has always been fighting and sacrificing for others. What's wrong with letting him be an ordinary person for one day? Do you really have to work him to death to be satisfied?"

Everyone was taken aback again, then they all looked at Jiang Chen, their eyes showing a complex expression.

Graduation!

This word was so foreign to everyone, as most of them had never experienced it.

And because Jiang Chen had always been so mature and steady, coupled with his extraordinary combat abilities and his leadership position, everyone overlooked his age.

It was only when Fu Ling'er brought it up that they suddenly realized.

Jiang Chen was just a young man in his twenties. Although he entered the school through special recruitment, he was only a few years older than other university students of his cohort. This should have been the age for youthful exuberance and just stepping into society.

But Jiang Chen... he bore the heavy responsibilities that no one else could shoulder!

At this moment, indescribable emotions surged in everyone's hearts as they looked at Jiang Chen with extremely complex gazes.

"Graduation, huh? I forgot all about it!"

Jiang Chen smiled lightly, then his expression suddenly turned bitter: "I didn't really attend school much these past four years; I'm sure I failed a lot of classes, right? I probably won't graduate this year!"

"Uh... I checked the graduation list, and it seems your name is missing, big brother."

Lou Qiangqiang spoke softly.

"Well! Looks like I truly can't graduate!"

Jiang Chen pouted, then laughed lightly: "It's okay, if I can't graduate, Yu Wan can't either. She barely went to classes too. We'll repeat the year together."

"Uh... Big brother, Yu Wan's name is on the graduation list."

Lou Qiangqiang timidly reminded: "Although Yu Wan was busy, she returned for every exam and passed them all, even winning full scholarships for two years!"

"What?!"

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, his expression bitter: "Really? Just me repeating the year?"

"Um..."

Elder Long saw the bitterness on Jiang Chen's face and couldn't help but speak: "Mr Jiang, I was the one who transferred your student record. After establishing the Martial Warrior Academy, martial academies everywhere wanted you as their principal, so I transferred your student record and made some documentation. You're now the principal of all the Martial Alliance's affiliated warrior academies, not a student anymore!"

"Oh? Is that so! All right then!"

Jiang Chen grinned: "So I guess I'm the most impressive student, right? Didn't even get a diploma and directly became a principal of dozens of schools!"

"Uh..."

"Hahaha!"

"Haha..."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Elder Long rolled his eyes lightly, laughing: "Mr Jiang, you're not just the principal of dozens of schools. In countries that haven't joined the Martial Alliance worldwide, martial academies have also been established, and they all list you as their principal. You're now the principal of nearly two hundred schools."

"I..."

Jiang Chen paused for a moment, raising his eyebrows, and feigned anger: "These guys, using my name without my permission. I'm going to sue them for infringement!"

Everyone was simultaneously stunned, their expressions growing complex once more.

This was a side of Jiang Chen they hadn't really seen, and this kind of Jiang Chen was more befitting of his actual age!

Everyone once again felt deeply moved!

"Okay, Ling'er, Qiangqiang, you two go back first. I'll attend the graduation party, but don't go spreading it around. I don't want to be watched like some kind of spectacle."

Jiang Chen smiled softly, patting Fu Ling'er's little head.

"Okay! We'll head off then. Big brother, make sure to rest well and don't always run around with these old guys!"

Fu Ling'er nodded, reminded him, and then left.

"Right, these old guys are really something, don't let me rest after getting injured, really too much!"

Lou Qiangqiang chimed in from the side.

Hearing this, everyone chuckled wryly, shaking their heads in resignation.

They really couldn't refute this; after all, some things just couldn't be done without Jiang Chen.

"All right, I know." Jiang Chen smiled lightly.

Fu Ling'er and Lou Qiangqiang nodded and stepped out of the living room.

After glancing at everyone and seeing their helpless faces, Jiang Chen grinned, took out his phone, and dialed a number.

"Hello, Jiang Chen."

"Yu Wan, your graduation ceremony is next Monday. Can you ask Jing Yi and Lin Lin if they want to come to Dingjing? Have Ying Zi and the others accompany you over, we can hang around for two days." Jiang Chen spoke gently.

"Sure! We'll pack up right now and aim to leave as soon as possible! Beep..."

Jiang Chen paused, looked at the phone emitting the busy tone, and felt a little wistful. They must be tired of staying on the island, right?

"Mr Jiang, how long do you plan to rest?" Elder Long cautiously asked.

"Elder Long, I heard what you said earlier. For those who want to apply for the Martial Alliance, as long as they meet our established criteria, just let them pass. As for meeting them..."

Jiang Chen looked up at Elder Long, smiled softly, and said, "Let's wait! I still have work to do these days, need to make rounds at the spatial rifts in various locations, and I'll take two days to rest before seeing them!"

"Alright!"

Elder Long nodded slightly.

He knew that compared to meeting those forces, the spatial rifts everywhere were undoubtedly more important.
