When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 307 Sunrise in the East
The next day, a supply ship arrived, bringing various supplies, including medical items.

No one noticed that when the supply ship left, there was an extra person on board.

Bai Ze quietly boarded the ship and returned to land on a supply vessel.

That afternoon, the supply ship docked at the pier in Canghai City.

Canghai City happens to be the closest seaside city to Yingzhou Secret Realm, so many of the supplies delivered in recent days have been sent from Canghai City.

When the boat stopped, Bai Ze disembarked quietly without alerting anyone.

When his feet touched land, Bai Ze felt a sensation different from that at sea.

At sea, Bai Ze could also sense the presence of gravity, but separated by the unknown depth of the sea, it always lacked a sense of reality.

On land, Bai Ze could directly feel the invisible force attracting him. Every step he took was a pull against gravity.

He could even faintly sense a pulse...

Bai Ze frowned slightly, and an illusory shadow appeared on his body.

Because he discovered that this pulsation was not something he sensed himself, but rather something he sensed through the Dharma image.

The Dharma body that operates the "Heavenly Demon Rebirth Technique" can resonate with the pulse of the earth. With just a thought, it can even draw in the earth's turbid energy.

But this behavior is abnormal.

The Dharma form, condensed from Qi, actually possesses sentience?

This ability should belong to living beings, yet it has been given to a fabricated vessel.

The "Heavenly Demon Reincarnation Technique" is truly bizarre.

Thinking this, Bai Ze did not disperse his Dharma form, but instead used the Dharma form's perception to contact the earth.

Anything that is beneficial can be utilized.

As for the harmful parts...

If it's not what I want, I'll simply refuse it with my words carrying weight.

Walking briskly, Bai Ze's figure floated into the city.

"Warmest congratulations to Bai Ze, the pride of our city, for surpassing young martial artists from both countries and becoming the martial arts champion of Dongxia..."

"Bai Ze, an orphan, is not discouraged. He became a martial artist only two months ago and has already won first place in the Federal Youth Cup..."

News about Bai Ze was everywhere in the city, and the large screens in the commercial street continuously played Bai Ze's past experiences.

It's estimated that during this period, everyone in the city was tired of hearing stories about becoming the number one teenager in Dongxia in just two months.

Even with Bai Ze's thick skin, when he found his image appearing everywhere, he couldn't help but silently cast a buff to reduce his presence and avoid being discovered.

'The old headmaster must be very proud this time; he'll have plenty to brag about to his old friends.'

As Bai Ze listened to the news, he subconsciously thought of his former principal, Lu Mingzhou.

Since he was going back to Canghai City this time, he also wanted to see the old principal and the people in the orphanage, so Bai Ze simply went to the Third High School, which was closer.

As soon as they arrived outside the Third High School, they heard the same sounds they had heard on the street before.

The area outside the Third Middle School gate was crowded with people. Several beautiful female reporters held microphones in front of the camera and were passionately recounting Bai Ze's past.

So what was on the big screen before was a live broadcast.

Bai Ze didn't know what to think, but he skillfully found a spot, climbed over the wall, and entered the school.

A faint white light appeared in his eyes. Bai Ze scanned his surroundings, caught a trace of golden-red energy, and then moved around the school with practiced ease.

It's the same familiar road, the same familiar river, and the same familiar anglers.

The old headmaster is fishing again.

Sitting next to him was another old man, who was his distant uncle, Xia Xingde.

Two old men sat calmly by the river fishing, exuding an air of profound detachment and detachment.

It's a bit of a shame that there were no fish in the bucket.

Bai Ze slowly approached, but before he could speak, the old headmaster suddenly let out a long sigh. "Unbelievable,"

The old headmaster said leisurely, "I've been hiding here, but you still managed to find me. Young man, have you ever heard the story of becoming the number one in Dongxia in just two months?"

"I heard."

Bai Ze chuckled and walked to the old principal's side, saying, "Because that's my story."

Hearing the familiar voice, the old headmaster suddenly turned around, "It's you! Shouldn't you be at sea?"

As Bai Ze approached, the old principal sensed him with his spiritual power. However, because Bai Ze's presence was very low, the old principal subconsciously ignored Bai Ze's aura and treated him as just another student in the school.

Now that he sees Bai Ze, the old principal certainly doesn't feel old enough to not sense Bai Ze's presence.

He refused to admit he was getting old, and despite the passing decades, the old principal never abandoned the habits he developed on the battlefield.

He will absolutely not be careless.

Therefore, there is only one possibility: Bai Ze has blurred his perception.

Thinking this, the old principal exclaimed inwardly, 'These young people nowadays are truly terrifying.'

"Having been injured, I stepped back," Bai Ze said casually, sitting down on a large rock. "I also took the opportunity to cultivate my heroic spirit and continue my training."

"To be able to force you to retreat injured, it seems your opponent is no pushover."

Upon hearing this, the old headmaster sighed and then said, "But if you were truly seriously injured, Yaoguang wouldn't have let you return alone. So, you want to refine your divine will, right?"

Although he said it in a question, his tone was quite certain.

"The old principal has a keen eye," Bai Ze flattered.

"Hehe," the old headmaster chuckled proudly, "I also know that you're unsure which path you want to take and have doubts about your own conscience?"

"Hehe," Old Man Xia next to him chuckled as well, but with a hint of mockery, "If Mu Yaoguang hadn't sent you a message telling you about Bai Ze, would you have guessed his doubts?"

The former headmaster: "..."

He silently placed his hand on Xia Xingde's shoulder to restrain him, and then, maintaining his profound demeanor, said, "You and Yaoguang are both too talented to figure out what you want most. Yaoguang had the same question back then, but it was Old Yun who showed his divine will and helped her find the way."

"You can't count on Lao Yun now, so you can only turn to me."

Bai Ze felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing the old principal's words.

Before leaving, Mu Yaoguang simply bid farewell to Bai Ze, but behind that calm facade, she had already made preparations for him.

Why didn't she show her divine will, but instead insisted on finding the old headmaster?
Seemingly noticing Bai Ze's confusion, the old headmaster explained, "According to the classification, I am the type that takes inspiration from myself, and for some reason, my divine will has a very obvious manifestation of personal will, which can make people feel that kind of heartfelt emotion."

"This is a characteristic of us old folks; our divine will carries a very clear mark of our times. Old Yun is like that, and so am I."

As he spoke, he exuded pure and refined true energy, along with an intense heat that was difficult to describe in words.

The old principal practiced his "Boyhood Kung Fu" his whole life, from the Pure Yang Boyhood Kung Fu to the Heavenly Gang Boyhood Kung Fu, cultivating a body full of pure Yang energy.

But at this moment, the intense heat he exuded did not come from pure yang energy, but from his will and his divine will.

“I was born in a difficult time, but it was also a passionate time, and our divine will is proof of this passion.”

"That year, the Great Freedom Demonic Cult opened a passage in the capital of the Brahma Kingdom, which triggered the convergence of the world and led to the destruction of the Brahma Kingdom. Afterwards, the Great Freedom Demonic Cult and many other evil cults opened passages on the Ganges Plain in an attempt to invade the Eastern Xia."

"Back then, I was a five-star martial artist. I went to India with my colleagues to fight against the evil cult and even the evil god that might descend."

"We sat on a freight train, with the cargo right below us, and the roof of the carriages was open. We sang 'The Sun Is Red' at dawn, and we passed through the mountains and entered India."

"When we left Dongxia, the sun was rising behind us, sweeping away the light mist in front of us, illuminating the road we had come from, and lighting up the road ahead."

A golden-red sun rose behind the old principal.

Real yet illusory, it is the condensation of true energy and the manifestation of spiritual will.

"At that moment, I broke through."

"Gather divine will—the sun rises in the east."
