I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 680 The Second Dean Takes Office, Airport Turmoil!

Upon hearing this voice, Bai Zhengyu's face immediately stiffened.

What the hell.

When did Ji Ruxue arrive?

How come there's not a trace of aura about it?

Immediately afterwards, Ji Ruxue asked with a half-smile:
"Bai Zhengyu, it seems you really don't want my senior brother to become the dean!"

"Ahem. Um, you misheard me!"

Bai Zhengyu quickly chuckled, then said with a serious expression:

"If Nangong Hong becomes the dean, I, Bai Zhengyu, will be the first to raise both hands in support!"

Upon hearing this, the people around him looked at him with disdain.

Coward.

They haven't even met the person in question yet, and they don't dare utter a single word!

Ji Ruxue rolled her eyes, too lazy to argue with Bai Zhengyu.

This guy has been thinking about surpassing his senior brother for forty years.

The result was that the gap actually widened.

In the beginning, even if you're not the opponent, you can at least fight back and forth, or you can definitely escape.

Two and a half years ago.

Relying on his breakthrough to the Transformation Realm in martial arts, Bai Zhengyu arrogantly challenged Nangong Hong to a duel.

As for the result...
He couldn't even last three moves.

At that time, Nangong Hong had not even broken through to the third level with skin and flesh.

Now that he has broken through to the third level, it's hard to say whether Bai Zhengyu can even withstand one move.

This is certainly not just a difference in skill level.

Although there is a difference between the first and third stages of the Unity Realm, they are both at the first stage of the Unity Realm, and there is no way they could be killed in one move.

This is mainly due to the level of martial arts attainment and the number of acupoints opened.

Nangong Hongke is at the early stage of the Transformation Realm in martial arts, and has opened up nearly forty acupoints.

Bai Zhengyu had only just broken through to the entry level of Transformation Realm, and had only opened less than ten acupoints.

Given this disparity, it's quite normal to be instantly defeated in one move.

"Don't worry, my senior brother will never be the next dean!"

Everyone nodded, without denying it.

Most people outside the city are now speculating that Nangong Hong will take over as dean, but only they know the truth.

It is highly unlikely that Nangong Hong will become the successor dean.

Given Nangong Hong's personality, he wouldn't agree to take over even if offered the position.

Moreover, Dean Li is unlikely to recommend Nangong Hong.

If they were Li Qingxuan, they would actually only choose one person.

Ji Xuan.

His prestige and strength are not much lower than Nangong Hong's, and he is also calm and has a strong ability to handle affairs.

Having him take over as dean is definitely the best choice.

Apart from Ji Xuan, the others were all somewhat lacking.

Even Jiang Zhe.

Although he excels in all aspects, his strength is not top-notch; he has only just broken through to the Unity Realm.

Such strength makes it difficult to convince the eighteen elders and other vice presidents of the Senate.

As the dean of the Origin Academy, strength is the most important factor to consider.

Otherwise, there's no way to win people's hearts.

Currently, the only ones who can truly win people's hearts are Nangong Hong and Ji Xuan!

Neither of them had any objection to who should serve as dean.

of course.

That being said, no one can be certain until the very last moment.

……

In the blink of an eye, three days flew by.

The eighteen elders of the Origin Academy's Senate, along with all the students who were able to return, all returned to the academy one after another.

The total number has exceeded five hundred.

These 500-plus people are mostly Grandmasters; those below the Grandmaster level make up less than one-fifth.

Any one of them would hold a very important position in the outside world, yet now they have all gathered together.

Such a grand occasion has never happened before in the history of Origin Academy.

The huge council hall was solemn and dignified, filled with the auras of nearly eight hundred powerful figures.

Sitting at the very front were none other than the eighteen senators of the Senate.

Further back are the other Unity Realm cultivators, as well as the deans and vice-deans of various extraordinary academies.

As for those sitting side by side below, there were countless grandmasters and a small number of grandmasters.

Some of the invited official journalists from the Federation of People's Associations were so excited that their hands trembled as they looked at the profound figures in the room.

They had never been so close to so many powerful people before.

Normally, any Grandmaster is someone to be looked up to, let alone someone at the Unity Realm!

And this moment.

Nearly eight hundred powerful individuals gathered together.

The overwhelming sense of awe is indescribable.

The reporters held their breath, carefully adjusting their filming equipment, afraid of missing any detail.

They knew that every frame they recorded today would be recorded in history.

However, unlike the reporters' excitement.

The students from Origin Academy noticed that one person was still missing.

Vice Dean Nangong Hong!

That's right, all the high-ranking officials have arrived, except for Nangong Hong.

"what happened?"

"Could it be that Vice Dean Nangong failed to be elected dean, so he simply didn't come?"

Someone whispered their guess, but was immediately stopped by a look from the person next to them.

In such a situation, it would be unwise to make unfounded speculations.

However, the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly changed slightly.

Of all the high-ranking members of Origin Academy, only Nangong Hong is absent.

This is quite intriguing.

In the front row, Bai Zhengyu couldn't help but ask:
"Ji Ruxue, where is Nangong Hongren?"

"Didn't anyone notify him?"

Bai Zhengyu's voice wasn't loud, but it was easy for the Grandmaster and the Unity Realm expert behind him to hear their conversation.

So when Bai Zhengyu asked, many people perked up their ears.

"No, my senior brother has been in seclusion for almost a month!"

"They say the cultivation has reached its most crucial stage."

Upon hearing this, the people around him were all taken aback.

The most critical moment?
Could it be that he has broken through to the second stage of the Unity Realm?
But it shouldn't be that fast. Nangong Hong only broke through to the third level of the flesh and blood in two years. It's absolutely impossible for him to break through so quickly.

In that case, the only way is to break through the martial arts realm!
As for the realm of laws and concepts, Ji Xuan is stuck at the third stage, and Nangong Hong has absolutely no chance of breaking through to the level of laws.

"Damn, is this bastard about to break through to the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm?"

Bai Zhengyu cursed in his heart.

Is the cultivation speed even meant to keep people alive?
Those behind Ji Ruxue who heard her words shook their heads.

They thought Nangong Hong's absence was due to something else, but it turned out he was in seclusion cultivating.

It was during this conversation that the group began to talk among themselves.

Li Qingxuan, dressed in a simple, plain-colored robe, slowly appeared in the hall.

"Dean!"

Everyone stood up and bowed respectfully.

Li Qingxuan smiled and nodded in acknowledgment, his gaze sweeping across the faces of the crowd, looking at those familiar and unfamiliar faces.

This place embodies the most refined power of humanity over the past forty years.

"Fellow students!"

Li Qingxuan did not rush to announce the new dean, but instead began to talk about the past:

"Forty-three years ago, I was just a Taoist priest on Mount Qingcheng, chanting scriptures and meditating every day, thinking that this was the whole of life."

"Until one night, I met someone."

"I'm sure you've all guessed it!"

“That’s right, it’s the Origin Ancestor.”

"And from then on, I became the first person to embark on the path of the extraordinary."

“I’m very lucky,”

Li Qingxuan's voice echoed slowly in the council hall, carrying a sense of timelessness.

"To be able to encounter the ancestor in the vast sea of ​​people and embark on this unprecedented path."

His gaze deepened, as if piercing through time and space, returning to that fateful night.

"In the blink of an eye, more than forty years have passed, and I have gone from an ordinary person to where I am today."

"The path to transcendence has become increasingly perfect from its initial barbaric state." "Back then, breaking through to the Grandmaster level was extremely difficult, but now there are already more than thirty people at the Unity Realm."

He chuckled softly as he finished speaking.

"Don't laugh at me, but sometimes I even wonder if this is all a dream!"

In fact, it wasn't just Li Qingxuan; many people felt the same way.

Many of the more experienced trainees in the audience smiled knowingly.

Indeed, the changes over the past forty years have been earth-shattering.

Sometimes, even in the dead of night, I can't help but feel a sense of unreality when I dream.

Before this, no one had ever imagined that there would be supernatural beings or anything like that.

After recounting the past years, Li Qingxuan looked at everyone again:

"Over the past forty years, I have watched many of you grow step by step, from teenagers to grandmasters and even to the Unity Realm."

"Therefore, it's time to pass on the burden I've been carrying to you!"

"Today, I will step down from my position as Dean of the Origin Academy."

Although the news had already spread, when the moment actually arrived, an uncontrollable wave of excitement still swept through the audience.

For many, Li Qingxuan was not just the dean, but also a symbol of an era.

They are the guides who lead them onto the path to the extraordinary.

Both Wu Zong Nangong Hong and Feng Zong Ji Xuan embarked on the path to transcendence under the guidance of Li Qingxuan.

Li Qingxuan's abdication now also signifies the end of an era.

But soon, everyone's attention was focused.

Who exactly is the new dean?

Nangong Hong?
Or is it Ji Xuan?

Or someone else?

Li Qingxuan paused slightly, giving everyone time to process their emotions, before continuing:

"After discussions with the vice deans and with the consent of myself and the Origin Ancestor, effective immediately, Ji Xuan will assume the position of the second dean of the Origin Academy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a suppressed uproar arose from the audience, which quickly subsided.

This result was not too surprising to many high-ranking officials who knew the inside story.

Ji Xuan is indeed the best candidate.

No one will object to his succession.

Even Nangong Hong.

Although Nangong Hong himself was not interested in the position of dean, it did not mean that he was willing to be subordinate to an ordinary person.

Looking at the entire human race, the only ones qualified for his approval are the Origin Ancestor and Li Qingxuan.

Among his peers, only Ji Xuan was worthy of the title.

"Greetings, Dean Ji!"

As Ji Xuan walked onto the stage, everyone stood up and bowed once again.

From today onwards, Origin Academy will enter the era of Ji Xuan!
With Ji Xuan succeeding as the dean of the Origin Academy, the news spread at lightning speed.

"Tsk tsk, so it really is Ji Xuan?"

Panlong Town.

When Hua Changfeng learned that Ji Xuan had succeeded as the new dean, he also had a smile on his face.

Back in Origin Academy, he and Ji Xuan had the best relationship.

He was naturally very happy to hear that Ji Xuan had become the new dean.

……

Just one day after Ji Xuan took over as dean.

Tianhai Airport.

It is one of the five major airports of the Moon Star, and also the airport where superhumans and martial artists travel the most between the Moon Star and Earth Star.

Thousands of people come and go here every day.

But today.

All incoming and outgoing spaceships were temporarily rerouted to make way for the special passengers who were about to arrive.

"What are you doing?"

Why was the flight suddenly delayed?

In the waiting hall of Tianhai Airport, complaints from passengers rose and fell.

"What are you doing?"

Why was the flight suddenly delayed?

"I'm rushing to Earth for an important meeting!"

An extraordinary individual at the Innate Realm looked anxiously toward the check-in counter, where a long queue had already formed.

The staff are patiently explaining to the passengers:

"We apologize, but due to special control measures, all flights will be delayed by three hours. Please check your updates for the exact departure time."

The crowd immediately exploded.

"Special access control? Who's going to be receiving some important person?"

"I've flown on so many interstellar flights, but this is the first time I've encountered a situation where the entire airport is being cleared out."

Just as everyone was discussing this, a group of staff members in black uniforms strode into the hall.

The middle-aged man at the head of the group had a serious expression and an extremely powerful aura.

He is clearly an extraordinary being.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to have delayed your schedule."

His voice was loud and clear, instantly drowning out the noise in the room.

"The airport will be receiving important guests today, and all flights are temporarily suspended. We have prepared rest areas and meals for everyone, and we will fully compensate for any losses incurred."

"compensation?"

"Can you afford to pay for it?"

"Let me tell you, I am a transcendent being at the Innate Realm of the Stars, and I am in a hurry to go back and hand over the resources."

The voice of that innate realm transcendent being from the star suddenly rose, filled with obvious anger.

"This transaction is worth several thousand contribution points. If it delays you, can you afford to lose the money?"

As he spoke, the men behind him echoed his sentiments and surrounded him menacingly.

The middle-aged man frowned, and his aura instantly erupted.

"Grandmaster!"

The expression of that innate realm transcendent being from the star changed drastically, and his exclamation was filled with disbelief.

The people behind him retreated one after another, their previous imposing aura vanishing instantly.

At Tianhai Airport, a grandmaster personally came to maintain order.
Are you kidding me?
"roll!"

He was too lazy to say anything more to these people. If it affected Dean Ji's departure time to Earth, the consequences would be extremely serious.

the other side.

The airport manager stood personally at the entrance to the VIP channel, constantly wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

Two rows of security personnel in black uniforms stood beside him, each exuding a calm and collected aura, clearly all of them extraordinary individuals.

And without exception, they were all grandmasters.

This person in charge has even reached the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm.

"Has everything been checked thoroughly?"

The person in charge asked in a low voice.

"There can be absolutely no oversights."

"It's been checked three times already,"

The security personnel responded respectfully.

"The entire airport has been completely cleared, and the spaceships are ready,"

"We are ready to set sail as soon as Dean Ji arrives."

The person in charge nodded, his gaze involuntarily drifting towards the end of the passageway.

Just then, a new type of motor vehicle slowly drove into the airport.

Wait until the vehicle is parked.

His figure appeared in everyone's sight in an instant.

He was dressed in simple dark casual clothes.

Even so, his imposing aura, though not angry, still exerted an invisible pressure on everyone present.

"Dean Ji,"

The person in charge bowed.
"Everything is ready, and we can set off at any time."

Ji Xuan nodded slightly:

"Good work."

"Don't make such a big commotion next time!"

Ji Xuan's gaze swept across the empty waiting hall, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Ordinary travelers' journeys should not be disrupted as a result."

The person in charge immediately bowed:
"It was our oversight; we will definitely pay attention next time."

Shaking his head, Ji Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

He really disliked this kind of scene.

But there was no other way, because he had just taken office, so he had to go to the SUPP headquarters in his official capacity.

"If only I could traverse the void with my physical body like the Primordial Ancestor."
