Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank

650 The Ruins of the Academy

“Besides, even a wine master like Du Kang is willing to submit. I’ll hand myself to the Country Lord in order to drink Du Kang Wine in the future. I can have nothing else, but I can’t have less wine.”

Zhang Fei said loudly. The light that flashed in his eyes did not have the appearance of a reckless man at all. However, the drunkard’s personality never changed. He was still an alcoholic.

For the sake of Du Kang Wine, he was willing to do anything.

“Of course, as long as General Zhang is willing to join, I will treat you with the utmost respect.” Li Xiang’s face showed a touch of sincerity.

Zhang Fei took a deep breath and said, “However, if there is news of big brother and second brother in the future and I want to leave, I hope that the Country Lord can let me go.”

“Alright, I agree with this.” Li Xiang pondered for a while, then finally nodded and agreed.

Back then, Guan Yu had a similar experience. He did not expect to meet Zhang Fei here.

There was no doubt that the relationship between Liu, Guan, and Zhang was extremely deep. Of course, the chance of them meeting again would be very slim. They were separated in different areas, and no one knew how far apart they were. The chances of them meeting again were pitifully small.

Besides, he was confident that he could make Zhang Fei feel a real sense of belonging to the Kingdom of Dawn as time went by. At that time, even if there was news of the other two, Zhang Fei might not leave easily.

This was a new world. Everything that had happened before would start over here.

“Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide pay my respect to the Country Lord!”

Only then did Zhang Fei’s face reveal a trace of a smile. He immediately bowed to Li Xiang.

This bow confirmed the status of the ruler and his subject, which meant that he had completely joined the Kingdom of Dawn. They would share the same honor and disgrace. They were inseparable and connected by fate.

“General Zhang, please rise. Having you makes me more powerful!”

Li Xiang quickly stood up and went forward to help Zhang Fei up.

Zhang Fei’s body trembled when Li Xiang helped him up. He had used a lot of strength in this bow. When Li Xiang tried to help him up, his body instinctively produced a force to resist. Even so, he was still helped up naturally.

The strength of this force shocked Zhang Fei.

“His physical strength is even stronger than Zhao Sheng’s, and it’s not just one level stronger.” A thought quickly flashed through Zhang Fei’s mind.

By the time he reacted, he had already been helped up.

Sure enough, the rumors in the city were true. The strongest person should be the Country Lord in front of him. As expected of someone who rose up from the bottom and led the Human race to kill their way out of the chaos. He was indeed not a weakling.

Feeling the sincerity coming from Li Xiang, Zhang Fei was secretly touched.

Not long after, everyone sat down in the pavilion.

Zhang Fei suddenly said, “Country Lord, since I’ve pledged my allegiance to the Kingdom of Dawn, I’ll have to show my sincerity.”

“I don’t think there’s a need to,” said Zhao Yun after frowning slightly. If everyone had to prove their loyalty, it would not be a good thing in the future.

“It’s said to be a pledge of allegiance, but it’s actually a piece of information that I found. Now that the Country Lord is preparing to develop the Kingdom of Dawn, my information will be of great value,” said Zhang Fei again.

Li Xiang nodded and said, “I see. Please go ahead.” When he heard this, he couldn’t help but be curious.

“I didn’t descend within a radius of ten thousand kilometers, but rather in a wilderness ten thousand kilometers away. At that time, just as I descended, I encountered a large number of fierce beasts and monsters. In a battle, the war horse under me was eaten. I could only fight as I retreated and finally entered a valley.”

Zhang Fei began to narrate, “After entering the valley, I discovered that there was a ruin in the valley. The place couldn’t be considered ruins. It should be said that it was part of a building. When it descended, it split up for some reason. As a last resort, Zhang could only retreat to the ruins. However, when I got closer, I realized that the number of fierce beasts and monsters surrounding the ruins was even more shocking.”

“There’s even a large group of foreign races who seem to be attacking the ruins. However, as long as the fierce beasts and foreign races attacked, the ruins would emit all kinds of divine light and righteous Qi. There were all kinds of ancient scriptures and words of the sage that glowed with golden light to defeat the fierce beasts and kill the foreign races. They couldn’t get close to it.”

“I didn’t dare to get close when I saw this. However, I also knew that it was not a ruin, but someone was living there. I even heard the sound of someone reading. A scholar was reading the books of the sages. So, I think there must be a lot of scholars in there. That place should be a part of a huge academy after it was destroyed. It’s not an ordinary academy with the writings of a sage,” said Zhang Fei.

The situation back then was shocking. Even now, it was still clearly presented in his mind. Every time he calmed down, he would recall that scene. There were so many of them, but they couldn’t break into the ruins. It was obvious that it wasn’t an ordinary academy. He saw that a scholar took out an ancient book and torn off a page. The words on the page shone brightly and killed the fierce beasts directly.

“What? The ruins of an academy?”

“There’s such an academy nearby! It also has a special power that can resist the attacks of fierce beasts and foreign races. This is no ordinary academy. Every single one of the scholars inside is a treasure!”

“Since it’s not an ordinary academy, the students inside must not be ordinary students either. If they can join the Kingdom of Dawn, we’ll gain more power and we’ll be able to soar.”

Yang Mi, the ladies, Zhao Yun, and the others could not help but exclaim in shock.

It wasn’t that they weren’t kind-hearted enough, but this news was simply too shocking.

If what Zhang Fei said was true, even a fool would know that it was not an ordinary academy. It might be filled with Confucian cultivators or other cultivators who were on the path of cultivation. Once they were saved, the benefits they would get would be endless.

Li Xiang muttered to himself, “There’s such an academy that contains the words of the sage and can protect the students! I’m afraid it may be one of the most famous academies in the legends.”

He was naturally very interested in the academy. What did it represent? It represented a large number of talents.

“I originally planned to tell big brother and second brother this news after I find them. At that time, we can directly obtain a large number of talents. However, it seems that it’s impossible to find them now. You were both leaders of the Human race. Handing it over to the Country Lord will also make the best use of it. This is a map that I had drawn. I didn’t dare to get close at that time, so I could only leave secretly. As I walked, I drew the path. I hope it’ll be useful to the Country Lord.” Zhang Fei took out a map and handed it to Li Xiang.
