After the teachers finished eating, they left one by one, and the students also departed after finishing their meals. Without much interaction, everyone returned to their respective residences.
Dubaixi left immediately after eating, only telling Tang San that he was going to practice.
When Tang San walked out of the cafeteria, the sky outside had already turned completely dark. The courtyard was quiet, and many lights were on in the houses surrounding it, creating a serene yet vibrant atmosphere.
Taking a deep breath, Tang San walked back to his room, number 3 on the east side.
The moment he entered, he had a sense of foreboding.
Zhang Haoxuan was sitting in the living room, looking at him.
"Teacher." Tang San hurriedly greeted him.
Zhang Haoxuan smiled slightly and said, "Sit down and talk."
Tang San sat down on the chair opposite him.
Zhang Haoxuan asked, "Are you adapting well?"
Tang San nodded and said, "I'm just starting to adapt. It's quite good here."
Zhang Haoxuan said, "Do you know how long it took us to achieve the current state here?"
Tang San was taken aback and shook his head.
Zhang Haoxuan said, "Over three hundred years."
"Three hundred years?" Tang San couldn't help but raise his voice.
Zhang Haoxuan sighed lightly and said, "The accumulation of vassals, the recognition of our abilities by the monster race, and their gradual dependence on us. Then the construction and development of the Academy Town. Step by step, until the establishment of the Redemption Academy. It took us over three hundred years. To be precise, the birth of the Redemption Organization is also over three hundred years old. This place can be considered one of the few oases for humans. If all over the continent, humans could have such a place, our people would no longer suffer. What a wonderful thing that would be."
"Um." Tang San nodded silently.
Zhang Haoxuan said, "Starting tomorrow, you will officially begin your studies at the academy. I came to remind you that here, the first thing you need to gain is the recognition of your teachers and classmates. This recognition is not about being smooth in your dealings, but about strength. In our Redemption Academy, strength is the foundation of everything. I see that you have a steady temperament, so I'm not worried about that. But strength is the foundation for you to stand firm. When necessary, you can reveal your fifth-rank cultivation. But you must keep the Xuantian Treasure Record a secret."
"Understood." Tang San replied.
Zhang Haoxuan stood up and said, "After a long journey, and with studies starting tomorrow, you should rest early today." As he spoke, he walked out, and Tang San also stood up to see him off.
When Zhang Haoxuan reached the door, he suddenly paused, turned to look at Tang San, and patted his head, saying, "There is one more rule in our Redemption Academy: you can only have one true master. Understand?"
After saying that, he patted Tang San's shoulder again, and his tall figure disappeared in a flash of light.
Only one master? What is he trying to remind me of?
Tang San was momentarily puzzled.
After closing the door, he returned to his room. After a simple wash, Tang San got into bed.
He didn't start meditating immediately but took out a small bag from his pocket. This bag was made of a leather he couldn't identify, was entirely brownish-yellow, and only the size of a palm, not very noticeable.
After killing the Wind Wolf Town Lord, Feng Xiong, he had obtained this bag and then joined up with Zhang Tianshao to head to Jialin City. They had been together on the journey, so he hadn't had time to check it. Now that he was settled, he took out the bag to see what he had gained.
At the time of killing Feng Xiong, this small bag was the only item Feng Xiong had. Feng Xiong was fleeing in a panic, so the value of the only item he carried must have been significant. Feng Xiong, despite the small size of Wind Wolf Town, had been the town lord for many years. More importantly, when Tang San devoured his bloodline power, he discovered that Feng Xiong was different from ordinary wind wolves. His bloodline power was extremely pure. Devouring him alone provided more energy than all the monsters he had devoured before combined. This couldn't help but surprise Tang San.
He hadn't had time to think about it before, but now, recalling it, the background of this Town Lord, Feng Xiong, was likely very unusual. The probability of finding something valuable in his personal belongings was naturally much higher.
The small yellow bag felt light in his hand but had a sandpaper-like texture when touched. Tang San activated his Lingxin Eye, and his heart was immediately shaken.
When he used his Lingxin Eye to carefully examine the small bag, he immediately noticed a faint spatial attribute fluctuation within it.
He knew very well what spatial fluctuations meant. Could this be a spatial treasure that can store items, like a miniature universe? If so, he had found a great treasure!
Even in his previous life, spatial attribute items were very precious. Of course, after achieving godhood, they weren't important anymore because he could create his own space. But on this continent of monsters, this was the first time he had seen such an item. Moreover, if this small bag was a spatial treasure, it meant it could store more items regardless of its size.
As he thought, Tang San tried to open the small bag and subtly probe it with his mental energy.
The originally brownish-yellow small bag suddenly turned a faint green the moment it came into contact with his mental energy. Tang San could faintly feel a resisting force blocking his probe into the bag. This barrier wasn't very strong at first, but it was very resilient, easily blocking his mental energy.
His heart moved, and Tang San didn't stop probing but activated his Wind Wolf Mark, which made his body emit a faint green light.
Sure enough, after he activated the Wind Wolf Mark, the barrier held for a moment but then quietly dissipated.
The most concentrated bloodline power in Tang San's Wind Wolf Mark came from Feng Xiong. After all, Feng Xiong's bloodline was much purer than all the wind wolves he had devoured before. This proved that this unassuming small bag was actually an item that had already recognized its owner, meaning it had some level of sentience.
His mental energy probed inside, and the next moment, Tang San's face was filled with joy.
Inside the bag, there was a greenish mist. The internal space was quite large, about ten feet in diameter, which was already quite remarkable for a spatial treasure.
For a spatial treasure used for storage, the first issue was maintaining a stable space. The larger the stable space, the harder it was to maintain. The leather on the outside was likely made from the skin of a spatial-type monster, and Tang San didn't know the exact process. But the space inside was about ten feet in diameter and very stable, making it a rare treasure.
Inside the bag, the contents were simple, just currency.
What caught Tang San's attention the most were the green coins in the bag, emitting a greenish glow and a strong wind element fluctuation.
Although Tang San had never seen this type of currency before, he could tell from the strong wind element fluctuation that it was the third-ranked elemental currency in the entire monster race's currency system, and it was precisely the wind elemental currency that matched the Wind Wolf lineage.
In this small bag, there were hundreds of wind elemental coins, which was a considerable fortune! In addition, there were a large number of wind spirit stones. These wind spirit stones were extremely clear and transparent, clearly different from the wind spirit stones he had seen before. Tang San didn't know the exact value of such pure wind spirit stones, but they were definitely very valuable.
