“Thank you, Hall Master,” Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath and nodded vigorously.

Tang Miao said, “Xuanyu, there is one more thing I need to remind you of. I know you are very smart, and this matter is obviously very important to you, but don’t lose your composure. Both the Academy and Tang Sect highly value you. You are starting to show your true potential. Your road is still very long, so don’t make any wrong choices because of this incident.”

Lan Xuanyu’s eyes flickered, “Are you worried that I might join the War G.o.d Temple because of this? I won’t, you can rest a.s.sured. I don’t qualify yet, and even if I did, I wouldn’t do it. I will find a way.”

Tang Miao smiled slightly, “Don’t forget your ident.i.ty as the heir to the School of Life. You can go to Elder Shu about this matter. Your ident.i.ty will be an important bargaining chip.”

“Understood.”

After leaving Tang Sect, Lan Xuanyu returned to the Academy. On his way back, he received a message from Bai Xiuxiu informing him that everyone had already returned. The interrogation was over, and the people from the War G.o.d Temple and the military had left.

How the War G.o.d Temple and the military handled the matter afterward was not something Lan Xuanyu needed to worry about right now. He called Ying Luohong’s soul communicator straight away.

Since he didn’t have the qualifications to enter the inner courtyard yet, he needed to seek the Academy’s support through Dean Ying.

Ying Luohong told him to meet her directly in her office.

When Lan Xuanyu arrived at Ying Luohong’s office, not only was she there, but Tang Zhenhua was also present.

Before Lan Xuanyu could speak, Tang Zhenhua said sternly, “Xuanyu, rest a.s.sured. It is our duty to save your teacher. We will do our utmost to help you, so please share whatever ideas you may have.”

Lan Xuanyu looked at his teacher, Tang Zhenhua, in surprise, and a wave of warmth surged in his heart. Little did he know that Tang Zhenhua wasn’t saying this only due to their teacher-student relations.h.i.+p, but also because his son was among those rescued by Nana. In fact, she was the savior of the entire Star Wars Experimental Cla.s.s.

Hearing this, Ying Luohong nodded slightly and said, “First of all, are you certain that your teacher is still alive?”

Lan Xuanyu nodded firmly. Whether or not he was certain, he had to proceed as if he were. Only by doing so would Teacher Nana have a chance of survival.

Ying Luohong said, “Very well. I will seek the Pavilion Master’s approval from the inner court. Now, tell us your thoughts.”

Lan Xuanyu first relayed the information he had just received from Tang Sect, then said, “Dean, Teacher Tang, not only did Teacher Nana save us this time, but she also gave us the chance to pa.s.s on the message. I think I can persuade my cla.s.smates to give up our merits in exchange for the Federation agreeing to accompany us in searching for Teacher Nana. This is the core argument for convincing the Federation to dispatch a fleet. As of now, the most important matter is to get the Federation to agree to this request. Saving my teacher requires military support. In this regard, I would like to ask for the Academy’s help. Additionally, Teacher Nana doesn’t belong to the Academy or Tang Sect. She teaches at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy and has some connection to the War G.o.d Temple. Wasn’t she previously a.s.sociated with War G.o.d An Peijiu? I plan to approach the War G.o.d Temple. If we give this credit to the War G.o.d Temple, they might speak on behalf of Teacher Nana. If we manage to rescue Teacher Nana, I could even persuade her to join the War G.o.d Temple, as long as she comes back alive.”

Ying Luohong looked at Lan Xuanyu in surprise. It was quite impressive that he could come up with these ideas in such a short time, especially the part about approaching the War G.o.d Temple, which was a stroke of genius.

Ying Luohong nodded and said, “This is a good plan. The decision from the Academy will depend on the Pavilion Master, but your whole cla.s.s coming back safely this time is thanks to your teacher, Nana, so I will do my best to argue for it. In addition, Vice-Pavilion Master w.a.n.g will be returning soon, and he will probably support you. We will work together to persuade the Pavilion Master.”

“That’s great. I’ll contact the War G.o.d Temple now. Do you think I should contact the Head War G.o.d from today, or War G.o.d An Peijiu?” Lan Xuanyu asked.

Tang Zhenhua, who was beside him, said, “Contact Yu Mucheng directly. Yu Mucheng is one of the top leaders in the military, a True G.o.d-level powerhouse, and the Head War G.o.d of the War G.o.d Temple. His high status means that approaching him first will be more effective. An Peijiu can then be used to support your claims. If you can convince Yu Mucheng, you will have a much better chance.”

Lan Xuanyu nodded, “Understood.”

Tang Zhenhua continued, “There’s no time to lose. Since Yu Mucheng is still in Shrek City, you should go find him immediately. I’ll give you the address he is staying at.”

“Thank you, Teacher Tang.”

“It is us who should be thanking you,” Ying Luohong said sincerely. “Let’s act separately. I’ll go to the inner court now to report this to the Pavilion Master. You go find Yu Mucheng. The Academy cannot directly get involved with the War G.o.d Temple to avoid any negative repercussions. Whether you can persuade him or not is up to you.”

Although Lan Xuanyu didn’t fully understand why Ying Luohong was thanking him, he didn’t have time to dwell on it. After noting down the address, he set off immediately, returning to Shrek City.

At this moment, he didn’t want to waste a single second. The sooner they set out to rescue Teacher Nana, the sooner she could be saved.

In Shrek City, on the top floor of an ancient building, Yu Mucheng had just ended a communication with the military.

Looking at the information on the electronic screen in front of him, he frowned deeply. From the summary of the inquiries with the students from Shrek Academy, the likelihood of this matter being true was very high. This meant that the Dragon Source Crystals, regarded by the Federation as an energy subst.i.tute, had significant problems.

These crystals probably didn’t originate from Dragon Source Planet but from the Dragon Horse Galaxy, designed to subtly introduce this energy into the Federation. If most of the Federation’s stars.h.i.+ps used this energy, it would be like planting a time bomb on every s.h.i.+p. The consequences of this were unimaginable.

Fortunately, the discovery was timely, and the enemy likely believed that the Federation hadn’t uncovered this yet. No harm had been caused so far.

The military’s recommendation to the Federation had been to maintain the status quo. This included continuing the mining operations on Dragon Source Planet without any interruptions to avoid arousing the enemy’s suspicion. After making thorough preparations, they planned to address the issue in one decisive move. This was considered the best approach.

The crucial point was to avoid further in-depth investigation of the Dragon Source Crystals before this, as it might alert the enemy. However, this also meant they could not fully confirm the information they had. Consequently, there were dissenting opinions within the military and the Federation. High-level officials in the Treasury Department, in particular, refused the validity of the current intelligence because the economic benefits brought by the Dragon Source Crystals were substantial. These crystals allowed the Federation to save significant resources, which were then used to continue building s.p.a.ce wars.h.i.+ps.

Maintaining a fleet’s supplies required an astronomical amount of resources. Only by occupying more resource planets could they replenish these supplies. However, with the obstruction from the Dragon Horse Galaxy, the pace of the Federation’s s.p.a.ce exploration program had significantly slowed down, requiring constant vigilance. Consequently, the rate of acquiring new resource planets had also drastically decreased.

If the Dragon Source Crystals had to be abandoned as an energy source, s.p.a.ce exploration might even come to a halt, leading to unpredictable consequences. For instance, if the Dragon Horse Galaxy started a war, it would pose a significant problem.

However, if the issues with the Dragon Source Crystals were real, it would lead to a catastrophic disaster, which the Federation could not afford.

Yu Mucheng personally supported replacing the Dragon Source Crystals. The latest information was quite credible, supplemented by some unclear yet supportive data. Additionally, satellites over Dragon Source Planet had detected ma.s.sive energy fluctuations. Moreover, w.a.n.g Tianyu’s testimony corroborated this version of events. Although w.a.n.g Tianyu did not personally discover anything wrong with the Dragon Source Crystals, the presence of a 120-level powerhouse was undoubtedly real. The enemy likely did not realize that he knew the truth, and in their haste to eliminate Nana and the Thirty-Three Sky Wings, they did not have the opportunity to kill him.

All these signs indicated that the information was likely true.

Now, it only came down to the Federation’s final decision.

“Report,” came the voice of a military signaller.

“Come in,” Yu Mucheng said, returning from his thoughts.

“Lan Xuanyu, an outer court student from Shrek Academy, requests to see you,” the soldier reported respectfully.

“Oh? The young man I questioned earlier today? Why is he here? Bring him in,” Yu Mucheng’s interest was piqued. Could there be more to this situation?

Soon, Lan Xuanyu, led by the signaller, arrived before Admiral Yu Mucheng.

Seeing the young man again, Yu Mucheng felt a mix of emotions. To be honest, his initial impression of Lan Xuanyu was quite favorable. This youngster had an extraordinary appearance.
