Karitha gestured for everyone to be quiet, "Welcome to the Rose Cathedral. Outside, they say we have lowered our standards, but here, I solemnly declare that this is impossible. We only allow those who are qualified to stand here. We are simply more open and inclusive; we will not miss any potential heroes..."
"Dear children of the Cathedral, burn your wisdom and soul, and strive to hone yourselves. What is the Cathedral? We rise in adversity, advance in peril, and excel in glory. Just as our predecessor Wang Meng said, as long as there is justice and a spirit of sacrifice in one's heart, everyone can become a hero. In the most free city on the continent, Aurora City, the Rose Cathedral stands at the forefront!"
The cheers from the audience came in waves, and the mentors on the stage also cooperated by pouring out their soul power. The massive soul power field surged like a tide, piercing through the clouds and making the sunlight even more dazzling.
Old Wang nodded in approval; Karitha had truly mastered the essence of motivational speaking.
Karitha, who was well-prepared, knew that although the number of people was large, their quality varied greatly. She wanted to ignite everyone's fighting spirit and was very satisfied with her performance. However, her gaze still swept over a lonely corner... someone was picking their nose...
In the next second, Karitha reined in her killing intent, her eyes bursting with even more brilliant light. She clenched her right hand and placed it across her chest, the salute of the Cathedral and the heroes.
"Today, you are honored to enter the Rose Cathedral. Tomorrow, the Rose Cathedral will be honored by you. Be brave and strive forward, for the glory of the Cathedral!"
Karitha's voice reached the ears of every student, and the entire Triumph Square erupted. Everyone's eyes burned with the fire of determination.
Glory to the Cathedral~~ Glory to the Cathedral~~
Old Wang also joined the crowd, waving his arms. One must learn to forget worries and enjoy happiness in life, after all, not everyone gets to experience something like this.
To hell with the glory, come, let's draw a dragon on the left, a rainbow on the right, and swim forward with our left and right hands, move your hips and elbows...
The dormitory door creaked open, and Fantasi's fat head squeezed through the gap to take a look. When he saw Old Wang's posture, he completely let go and curiously examined everything in the room.
"Afeng, that's amazing, you actually have a single dorm room. The Runic Academy is truly different."
"Save it. No one comes here, so it's just empty. If you want to roll around with Rachel, I'll let you use it. That's what brothers are for." Despite living in difficult conditions, one must still maintain a relaxed and optimistic attitude.
Fantasi's face turned red, and he quickly waved his hands, "No, no, it's not at that stage yet."
Wang Feng rolled his eyes, "Then why are you wearing green?"
Fantasi was wearing a particularly flashy green suit that accentuated his small belly.
"This is from Rachel. Isn't it suitable? She said it matches my shining personality."
Wang Feng covered his face, "How much did she give you?"
"Two hundred lire, and I have a shocking piece of news: today, Rachel and I held hands!"
Damn, I thought you had a wild night. Wang Feng was helpless. This damn thing is worth a few lire, and just holding hands makes you feel like a million bucks. However, Wang Feng did not try to dissuade him; if a backup could wake up, it wouldn't be a backup.
"Feels good?"
"Of course!" When it came to the goddess, Fantasi instantly forgot about the button on his belly that was about to burst and instead had a radiant face: "Yesterday, I walked through the small forest with her alone, and we held hands. This time, she didn't refuse, so I think it's a sign. Next month is her birthday, and she is looking forward to my participation. I want to formally confess to her."
At this moment, Fantasi had a look of deep reflection. Although they only held hands for a moment before she shyly pulled away, she didn't blame him, which meant a lot!
"Damn, you haven't washed your hands since then?" Old Wang looked at Fantasi, who was sniffing his hand like a dog, speechless.
Fantasi nodded very seriously. That "intimate contact" was the closest he had been to Rachel in over a year. Through his persistent efforts, the goddess finally felt his sincerity.
"Mom said, if you like someone, you must persist!"
Rachel, from the 97th class of the Firearms Academy, was the same year as Fantasi. She had blonde hair and blue eyes, a curvy figure, and a particularly alluring waistline. Any pose she struck was a big S, and a single flirtatious glance made the fat man's legs weak. She was known as the "walking hormone" in the Firearms Academy and was the object of many old bachelors' fantasies, with countless suitors.
Although Fantasi's overall score was low, he was rich and easy to manipulate, which was an advantage.
For a shrewd绿茶like Rachel to suddenly be so "generous" and invite Fantasi to her birthday party, completely ignoring the "fish pond" reputation, it was clear she had found her true love. Whatever Fantasi gave her would be like a meat bun thrown to a dog.
"What are you planning to give her?"
Fantasi scratched his head with a silly smile, "I plan to buy a Saxon six-shot revolver as a gift. It's all I have."
If it were just some roses, Old Wang wouldn't bother to advise. Young people need to learn from their mistakes to grow. But a six-shot revolver costs at least six thousand lire, equivalent to selling a kidney to buy a phone for a绿茶. The fat man was thinking of rolling around with her, but she might only let him hold her hand, and he might even have to wash his hands with disinfectant afterward.
"Have you thought about it more? What if she doesn't agree? What if someone else declares their love that day? Then your coffin money... your wife money will be gone." Wang Feng couldn't help but advise. As brothers for life, your money is my money. Money is always a good thing, no matter where you are.
