The speech lasted for two hours before it ended, and the legs of the students below the podium had already gone numb.

After they made sure that the speech was really finished, they clapped their hands feebly.

Today was the day classes officially began. A big car was parked in front of the school gate, and behind it, there was a huge 50-foot bronze statue.

The Guan Yu Statue walked down from the back of the car by itself and surveyed its surroundings. The scenery was wonderful, the place wasn?t crowded, and the platform built for it was to the side of the school gate.

Maybe it was because it had grown used to it on the busy street, but when it saw the platform, it stood on it habitually. Then, after standing on it, it found the platform suited it, and it was also very comfortable, so it just stood on the platform with ease and acted as the gatekeeper of the school.

?You must burn incense for it every day, and the incense should never be extinguished, okay?? Gao Peng instructed them strictly.

?Yes, understood.?

?Don?t worry, Principal Gao. We?ll definitely give it the incense every day.?

?From now on, don?t say ?it.? That isn?t polite.? Gao Peng went silent for a while. ?Call it Teacher Guan from now on.?

Huang Ya and the other teachers of the faculty nodded, then they exclaimed loudly to the Guan Yu Statue, ?Teacher Guan.?

The Guan Yu Statue?s gaze was fixed to the front.

Gao Peng laughed, turned, and left.

By night, the trees in between the mountains swayed and rustled. A big fat honey badger peered its head out of the bushes. This fat honey badger was different from ordinary honey badgers. Its pupils were crimson, and its fur was thick and long, as if countless pine-like needles grew out from under its skin. It dragged a large furry tail on the ground, and with its nostrils pointed high in the air, it assessed its surroundings cautiously.

Then it raised its head and looked into the school,. There seemed to be a lot of delicious food inside. Transparent saliva started dripping from the edge of the honey badger?s lips. It crawled carefully towards the school?s main gate, then it suddenly stopped moving halfway.

It turned and crawled to the wall on the side.

Hmph, there?s definitely something wrong with such a big entrance. I?m too smart to enter from here.

When it went past the Guan Yu Statue, the honey badger monster glanced at the bronze statue. It relaxed after it made sure it wasn?t alive. It thought for a while before moving towards the leg of the bronze statue and peeing on it.

After it finished peeing, its body trembled a little. Just as it turned around, a dark gold-colored crescent descended from the sky above its head.

Puchk!

The head flew into the sky.

It rolled on the ground twice, covered in dust, as its eyes continued to stare at the Guan Yu Statue even as it died.

Two guards in the guard house heard the commotion and ran out. After seeing the body of the honey badger monster on the ground, they sucked in cold air.

?With such a big honey badger, the meat must be oh so very tender. The school cafeteria can add something extra to their menu.?

?The principal said that every animal caught by Teacher Guan would be handled by the school?s cafeteria. It looks like we?ll have a good meal tomorrow.?

…

Compared to being called Master Gao, a title that kind of implied being the son of a rich and wealthy family, Gao Peng preferred to be called Principal Gao by others, as it gave him a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in teaching and educating people.

He was a noble person who was above vulgar interests.

His phone, which had been left on the table, rang. Gao Peng grabbed the phone, and the display showed that it was Director Chen, the director of Chang?an Monster Breeder Association. Of course, one had to add an ?ex? in front of the title.

Gao Peng accepted the call. ?Director Chen.?

?Hey. I haven?t been the director of Chang?an Monster Breeder Association for a long time. It?s not like you don?t know that I?ve joined the military, Master Gao. You can just call me Chen Xuehe,? said Director Chen jokingly from the other side of the phone.

?Then you should also just call me Gao Peng, like before. Master Gao is too unfamiliar,? said Gao Peng, smiling.

?Actually, I?m quite embarrassed to ask for you this time, but I really have something that I need to bother you with,? said Chen Xuehe on the other side with a sigh.

?Just say it straight out, Director Chen.? Gao Peng was certain that Chen Xuehe needed something from him. Unfortunately, it was more like the Chang? an Military District behind Chen Xuehe needed something from him.

?I knew I couldn?t hide it from you. The Desert Ruler in Dali Desert hasn?t been quiet recently,? Chen Xuehe said seriously.

Gao Peng frowned. He remembered that the Shatuoman Man-eating Earthworm Lord had successfully evolved last time. Two mighty beasts had competed against each other, so even if the Desert Ruler had won, it wasn?t possible for it to have healed that soon.

?The Shatuoman Man-eating Earthworm Lord…. It surrendered to the Desert Ruler.? Over the phone, Chen Xuehe?s voice was very low. ?Its power has expanded further. Although it suffered some injuries in the battle with the Shatuoman Man-eating Earthworm Lord, the injury has already completely healed by now, and with the help of the Shatuoman Man-eating Earthworm Lord, it has become even more powerful.?

The Shatuoman Man-eating Earthworm Lord had successfully evolved. After successfully evolving into a Lord-tier monster, it would bring its entire clan back to their territory, the Dali Desert. After all, they had been driven out of the Dali Desert by the Desert Ruler in the first place. Now, since it had the strength, of course it was going to fight back.

No one was willing to be driven from their home.

Now, the two Lord-tier monsters were on the same side. That was a frightening power.

?You can?t be asking me to take care of these two monsters, right? You?re overestimating me. We?re talking about two Lord-tier monsters. If you want to find someone, shouldn?t it be my Grandpa?? Gao Peng refused Chen Xuehe?s plan.

Although Chen Xuehe was still considered a close acquaintance, it didn?t mean that Gao Peng would use his Grandpa?s strength and forces to help someone just because he knew them.

This was a different matter. If he had the ability to do it, then so be it. However, even if Gao Peng were to personally go there, there was no guarantee that he could take care of these two Lord-tier monsters, especially when the two monsters were located in their favorite environment. If he were to go there, the most likely situation would be meat dumplings trying to fight a dog.

If he could take Stripey there, then it definitely wouldn?t have been a problem. Even if their number doubled, the Lord-tier monsters still wouldn?t be able to do anything.

Stripey would be able to send those two monsters into the ground with just one slap, easy, casual, and maybe with a yawn.

But the problem was that Dali Desert was at least 1,800 miles away from Yuzhou City… After the Cataclysm, the distance had increased even further. Stripey?s body was too big to get it into any kind of transportation, so it could only walk there, step by step.

?You?ve misunderstood. Of course, I?m not just asking you to handle them. This time, it?s not just you?the Golden Deity will also personally head out. At the same time, we?ll try our best to get those two monsters out of the desert. We only want you to delay the Desert Ruler while the Golden Deity deals with the Shatuoman Man-eating Earthworm Lord. After he deals with the Earthworm Lord, then we?ll all finish off the Desert Ruler together.?

The plan sounded good, however, actually executing it wouldn?t be that easy.

?Why do you need to kill these two Lord-tier monsters?? Gao Peng asked sharply. Lord-tier monsters didn?t have low IQs. Unless humans really threatened their existence, they wouldn?t attack human base cities on purpose.

The other side of the phone went silent for a while, then Chen Xuehe said, ?A grandson of one of the heads of the military region was attacked by the Desert Ruler during his mission in the Dali Desert, and unfortunately, he died on duty.?
