" What do you mean?" Xiong Wu quickly caught up with Yang Xing." Is someone trying to trick you?"”
"Who will arrange the distribution of the invitations?" Yang Xing smiled.
" Academic Affairs Office…" Xiong Wu's eyes brightened."You mean that Cao Fahua is behind this, and he deliberately seized your invitation?
But in the end, it would still be given to you, but it would not give you time to prepare. If you wanted to pursue it, you would either say that it had already been given or shirk responsibility!
On the other hand, if you don't prepare a suitable gift at the old principal's birthday banquet, you will be considered to be lacking in etiquette!”
Yang Xing didn't say anything, just smiled.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and prepare the gift.”Xiong Wu said nervously.
Yang Xing pointed at his head. I'm ready."
Xiong Wu was dumbfounded.
After that, no matter how he tried to persuade him, Yang Xing did not listen to him. Instead, Yang Xing even comforted him not to be nervous and that there would be no problem.
The back mountain of the academy was originally in a semi-closed state, and today, there were even people guarding it.
Only those with invitations could enter.
Apart from being accessible from within the academy, there was also a side door that allowed outsiders to enter the back mountain.
"There are quite a few people here today, right?" Yang Xing walked on the stone steps and was already halfway up the mountain. He looked at the side door of the back mountain, where many carriages were parked.
"Although the old principal said it was a small office, there were at least a hundred people. Old friends from the other academies in Northern Yan City, then some high officials and dignitaries, and some teachers from the academy.
I heard that the royal family might send someone over!”Xiong Wu said softly.
"The royal family?" "Is the old principal's status that high?" Yang Xing was somewhat interested.”
"Of course. From civil officials to military officials, at least one-third of the people in Bei Yan Country are from Zi Yang College! Moreover, the old principal was also very powerful.
Even the current emperor of the Northern Yan Kingdom had to address the old principal respectfully when he saw him.”Xiong Wu was clearly feeling proud of himself for being a member of Zi Yang College.
"Just how strong is the old principal?" Yang Xing asked curiously.
Xiong Wu rubbed his chin and pondered.""The last time the old principal fought was eight years ago. His opponents were three Martial King Realm and one Soul King Realm! Eight years had passed, and the old principal's age was obvious. No one could say for sure.
It was possible that he was still in the Soul King Realm, or that he had already stepped into a higher realm.”
Eight years ago, he fought three Martial King Realm and one Soul King Realm.
Yang Xing could not help but be curious about what kind of old principal this was.
Although he had heard a lot about the old principal, he had never seen the person in charge of Zi Yang College in his three years in Zi Yang College.
As they chatted, the two of them arrived at the top of the back mountain.
At the top of the mountain, there was a building that looked like a courtyard house. After walking through the gate, there was a large courtyard in the middle. At this moment, there were many wooden tables placed here, and servants went in and out to arrange things.
The guests who had already arrived greeted each other.
"Aiyo? Isn't this Teacher Yang? Why? You came empty-handed."
An unfriendly voice sounded.
Yang Xing turned his head and looked at the three people walking in front of him.
Lin Nan, Hou Liangjie, Cao Fahua.
It was Cao Fahua who had spoken just now.
"Cao Fahua, why did you only send Yang Xing the invitation this afternoon? Did you do it on purpose?”Xiong Wu stood up and pointed at Cao Fahua.
"What are you talking about?" Cao Fahua asked innocently. Why can't I understand? Aiya…Could it be that Teacher Yang didn't prepare a birthday gift?”
" You…" Xiong Wu's face was filled with rage.
Yang Xing stopped Xiong Wu. He looked at Cao Fahua indifferently and said,""Why did you say that I didn't bring a gift? Could it be that your nose was born in the year of the dog?”
"Hmph, stop pretending. If there's a birthday gift, take it out.”Hou Liangjie sneered.
"Is it your Teacher Hou's birthday today? You want me to show you? How about this, I'll prepare some gifts for you during your memorial service.”Yang Xing retorted without any politeness.
Hou Liangjie and Cao Fahua were both furious, as if they wanted to fight Yang Xing on the spot.
"Alright, why don't you take a look at this place? As a teacher of Zi Yang College, he spoke in such a rude manner. Did he not know how to be a teacher?”Lin Nan spoke at this time. It was obvious that he was targeting Yang Xing.
Yang Xing clenched his fists and cupped his hands at Lin Nan."I can't compare to a certain person who has moral ethics. He's already in his thirties, but he's still thick-skinned enough to pursue a twenty-year-old girl. He's not afraid of others saying that he's an old cow eating young grass.”
Lin Nan's face darkened.
Cao Fahua and Hou Liangjie subconsciously glanced at Lin Nan. They both knew that Lin Nan was pursuing Ouyang Qingqing, the granddaughter of the White Rose Academy's dean.
"Hmph, you have a vicious mouth. I just don't know if you can still smile later. Let's go!" Lin Nan was pretentious. Of course, he could not fight with Yang Xing here. He turned around and left.
"Don't forget, you still have more than 20 days left in Zi Yang College!”Hou Liangjie's face darkened as he pointed at Yang Xing.
"We don't know who will get lost then.”Yang Xing smiled.
The three of them left.
Xiong Wu gave Yang Xing a thumbs up."Brother Yang, why didn't I see that you were so powerful in the past? But why did you offend Lin Nan?”
Yang Xing shrugged." It's not that I want to offend him. It's him who has to run into my gun."”
He treated me as a love rival, so I naturally didn't have to give him face.
Following that, many people came one after another. The old principal also came out.
Dressed in a white robe, he looked very solemn. Although he was already 70 years old, his every move still had a dignified aura.
This was the old principal of Zi Yang College, Chen Dahai.
The birthday girl had appeared, but the birthday banquet had yet to begin. It was as if she was waiting for someone.
"The Second Prince has arrived."
A loud voice rang out as a man wearing a python robe walked in.
The others bowed.
"Everyone, there's no need to be so polite. I'm here today to celebrate Director Chen's birthday.”
The Second Prince looked very polite and approachable.
"It is my honor to have Second Prince here.”Director Chen said politely.
The Second Prince took out a brocade box and placed it in front of Director Chen.
"This is a birthday gift. It's just a small gift.”
Old Director Chen took the brocade box. Previously, Yang Xing had learned from Xiong Wu that in this world, birthday gifts had to be opened on the spot.
Therefore, everyone stared at the brocade box curiously, wanting to know what the Second Prince had given them.
