299: Leave

Back in the outside world, it was still early morning.

Clearly, Chen Xuan had specifically put Rou Wu through a military-style training session by utilizing the time difference in his Small World.

"Oh, right, I specifically granted you the authority; try it now!"

Rou Wu's eyes lit up at his words. Chen Xuan had given her more than just tens of billions in exchange funds.

With a wave of her fair hand, a tunnel connecting to Chen Xuan's Small World instantly appeared before them.

Yes, after Chen Xuan became the "Heavenly Dao" of the Small World, he also gained the right to allow his women to enter from the outside world at any time, though the difference was that they could only enter by themselves.

However, because Chen Xuan's current location was not convenient for the women to appear, he had not yet granted permission to the others.

"Mm, it's good that you can open it. Remember to report to me every night. If there's even one day you don't come, the consequences will be something you can't bear!"

"Hmph, I know. You only know how to bully me!" Rou Wu said, putting on her shoes and socks, and left Chen Xuan's room.

However, upon hearing Chen Xuan's high level of possessiveness towards her, she surprisingly didn't feel that angry; instead, she found it reasonable.

Indeed, how could he bear to part with such a beautiful woman like herself! Hmph!

In the blink of an eye, it was noon. The Academy Grand Competition had concluded perfectly, and everyone from Monster Academy had gathered together.

"Excellent, excellent. You truly didn't disappoint my expectations. Once we return to the Academy, everyone will receive an additional reward!" Zhou Kai, as the Dean, said joyfully.

But the expressions of the people below varied.

"Cough, cough, well, I've been entrusted by Old Ancestor Qingshan to specifically visit his Sect and serve as his Immortal Soul consultant, so... I might not be able to return to the Academy," Yu Gang said, clearing his throat.

"Is that so? That's as it should be, as it should be!" Zhou Kai quickly echoed upon hearing this.

After all, that person was Old Ancestor Qingshan; he couldn't afford to offend him.

"Also, Old Ancestor Qingshan is also very interested in some weaker Immortal Souls, so Tang Sirui and Qing Wu will also come with me," Yu Gang added.

Actually, Old Ancestor Qingshan was only interested in Tang Sirui, but considering that Tang Sirui always brought Qing Wu wherever he went, Yu Gang mentioned her as well.

"I've recently had some insights and need to go into seclusion, so I won't be returning to the Academy," Dragon YuYan said faintly, glancing at Chen Xuan.

"Dean, my father has urgently summoned me back to the Family, so I also can't return to the Academy!" Zhai Ningning said. Behind her stood a black-clothed elder and a young man holding a long spear with an arrogant expression.

"No problem, no problem! Since you all have things to do, just go ahead and take care of them," Zhou Kai said.

He couldn't control these few even if he wanted to.

"Chen Xuan Gege, I'm sorry, I can't accompany you back to the Academy!"

Zhai Ningning was clearly in a bad mood and ran directly to Chen Xuan to hug him.

Seeing this, the arrogant young man holding the long spear gripped it tightly, and the black-clothed elder also frowned deeply.

"It's fine, it's fine. We'll have plenty of time in the future. Since Uncle summoned you back, then go back!" Chen Xuan affectionately pinched the girl's cheek.

"Mm-hmm!"

Being pinched on the face in public, Zhai Ningning seemed a bit embarrassed and directly buried her face in Chen Xuan's embrace.

The others: "......"

"Dean, we've worked so hard cultivating for so long and finally won this championship. Don't you think we should also get some rewards?"

Seeing that most people were about to leave, Dai Dabai suddenly spoke.

"Only you know to ask for rewards. Speak, what do you want?"

"Actually, it's nothing much. I just want you, Dean, to give us a holiday. Zhu Zhu and I want to go home and see our families."

"A holiday? No problem. Go back if you want to. Anyway, so many people are leaving at once; even if you didn't say anything, I would have given a holiday." Zhou Kai's expression was natural.

Originally, he was going to give them extra rewards for this championship, but now he saved quite a bit. Good thing.

As for Ma Ji and Yan Xi, they were his direct subordinates, so he didn't need to worry about them.

"But..."

"Just say what you want! Can't you be more like a man!" Zhou Kai said impatiently.

"Chen Xuan was brought by me from the Lower Realm. I've already told him that I want to invite him to be a guest in my White Tiger Empire, so I want to go with Chen Xuan!"

"With Chen Xuan? No, no. Chen Xuan is a newly accepted Disciple of the Academy and hasn't even seen or studied at the Academy yet. It's not appropriate for you to take him away now. Besides... your journey might not be safe. It's better for Chen Xuan to return to the Academy." Zhou Kai refused without hesitation.

How could he hand over his money tree?

"Dean, what you're saying isn't right. Chen Xuan played a crucial role in this Academy Grand Competition, and he was able to defeat Yan Xi, so his strength is even greater than we imagined. We're not incapable of self-preservation on our way to the White Tiger Empire, don't you agree?" Dai Dabai argued reasonably.

Although he didn't know exactly what role Chen Xuan played, praising him was enough. As long as he wanted to follow him, once they reached the White Tiger Empire, wouldn't everything be up to him!

"Enough! I don't trust your strength. Don't mention this again. Chen Xuan must return to the Academy with me!" Zhou Kai directly made the decision.

As soon as these words came out, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Dai Dabai's eyes.

No choice, he could only use the backup plan.

...

Soon, everyone dispersed. Yu Gang and the others left one after another, and Dragon YuYan separately called Chen Xuan out.

"Chen Xuan, I feel like Dean... seems to be paying too much attention to you. How about I, your Martial Aunt, don't enter your Small World anymore? With me here, he wouldn't dare do anything to you!" Dragon YuYan said with a frown.

"It's fine. Strictly speaking, I've also reached the Void Refining cultivation, but I'm just continuing to refine myself for the sake of my Foundation. As long as I want to, I can Break through and leave at any time!"

Chen Xuan gently stroked Dragon YuYan's head.

"Don't touch Martial Aunt's head!"

"Alright, alright. But now, Martial Aunt should enter my Small World."

After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he directly took Dragon YuYan into his Small World, and only then did he return to Monster Academy's flying ship.

It was strange. Dragon YuYan was such a top-tier beauty, and after taking her in, his cultivation shouldn't have only been at the Peak Soul Transformation. Yet, even now, that Bottleneck remained completely unmoved!

"System, are you suppressing my cultivation again?"

"Ding, this is Bi Xiao Fairy's doing, unrelated to the System! Currently, the host can Breakthrough to the Body Integration Stage. During this period, the System will not suppress the host!"

"So it was her..."
