You want me to take out a loan to practice cultivation? I'll just pay off the debt physically.

Chapter 44 The Death of the Old Principal
Your passionate emotions have had a great impact on everyone.

[Under your influence, the despair in everyone's hearts seemed to have largely dissipated.]

【But you know, this is only temporary. 】

[After all, the crisis happening in the outside world is an objective reality, and it cannot be changed by your subjective will.]

[You are still too weak now. ]

[If you have the ability to reach the fifth or sixth level, then this demonic crisis will no longer exist! ]

[Although this is an unrealistic fantasy for you now. ]

[But you know, as long as you stretch the timeline, as long as you maximize the gifts of time and space, sooner or later you will have the strength that you dream of at this point in time.]

[Or, in other words, possessing strength far beyond one's imagination.]

【What you can't do, another you can definitely do! 】

In February of the 133rd year of the Transcendental Calendar, twenty-eight black market lenders in Jiangcheng banded together and, at great expense, hired a debt collection team composed entirely of second-ranked individuals to come to Ningcheng, claiming they were seeking to recover the loans taken out by the Red Heart Warband.

The captain of this debt collection team made a bold statement at the entrance of the Red Heart Group, saying that as long as the Red Heart Group cooperated, it would benefit everyone.

If the Red Hearts treat them well, their team can stay for the next period of time and help them resist the demonic tide.

[After all, they also know what the current situation is in Ningcheng Demon Cave.]

The debt collection team's attitude and words were so infuriating that you almost laughed.

[Since when has a team of second-level professional warriors been able to show off in front of the Red Heart Group?]

That night, under the protection of Deng Qi's assassin division, the entire debt collection team stationed outside Ningcheng disappeared.

Compared to the veterans who have survived countless battles on the battlefield, these debt collectors are completely inadequate.

[Furthermore, given the Red Heart Squad's wealth, their equipment and skill cards far surpass those of the Debt Collection Team.]

In this case, it was a complete crushing defeat.

After Team 13 and Team 15 destroyed the debt collection team, they took advantage of the night to travel to Jiangcheng via a teleportation array.

[The next day, news broke that all 28 black market loan agencies in Jiangcheng had been wiped out.]

After a brief investigation, the Jiangcheng law enforcement team discovered that the murderer was directly linked to the Red Heart Group. They quickly found a scapegoat and closed the case.

【There’s no need to investigate further! 】

[The Red Heart Regiment is currently fighting on the front lines of Ningcheng. We can't use such a small matter to affect the morale of the troops on the front lines, right?]

[With the demise of the twenty-eight shady loan institutions, the Red Heart Group no longer has to repay the loans they had taken out here.]

【After all, the creditors are gone, and the so-called debts disappear into thin air.】

[This incident also made the lending institutions in Jiangcheng and Yuncheng realize that the Red Heart Group was not a civilian team, nor was it an individual professional.]

Therefore, they must have ideas and methods for debt collection.

[If you offend the other party, you might be physically punished.]

[In March of the 133rd year of the Transcendent Calendar, a deafening roar was heard from the depths of the Ningcheng Demon Cave, followed by a massive demonic tide surging in.]

The powerful eruption of the ten level 40 lava monsters behind the Ningcheng Demon Cave caused the morale of the Red Heart Regiment to drop somewhat.

【But with your pre-battle speech, you successfully raised morale. 】

[When the monsters formed by the abyss monsters began to attack the defense line, the outbreak of this tug-of-war was inevitable.]

[In April of the 133rd year of the Transcendent Calendar, a Level 45 Hell Demon used its massive body to breach Ningcheng's defenses, destroying one-fifth of the magic crystal cannons deployed there.]

In order to quickly eliminate the Hell Demons blocking the gap and the influx of Abyssal monsters, Wang Meng led his five hundred men. After taking a Soul-Burning Potion that burned their souls and blood, they rushed into the demonic tide, each armed with psychic bombs.

In May of the 133rd year of the Transcendental Calendar, a Level 35 Spirit Lord commanded a battle remotely, significantly impacting the Red Heart Regiment's defenses. Deng Qi led his assassin division, using potions to boost their attributes to peak levels. They then collaborated with Xia Houchuan's division, using a reckless fighting style to decapitate the Spirit Lord.

[In July of the 133rd year of the Transcendent Calendar, the demonic tides erupted from the Ningcheng Demon Cave, each wave stronger than the last.]

[Principal Yuncheng holds a staff, igniting the essence of his soul, and unleashes an extremely powerful spell attack—Ten Thousand Thunders Killing.]

[Even a level 40 abyss monster cannot withstand this terrifying might.]

[The principal was already very old, and after this burning of his soul essence, he was clearly no longer able to function after this battle.]

[However, after he saw you, his spirits suddenly became excited.]

[You know, this isn't the old principal recovering, it's just the old principal's last burst of energy. He's really done!]

[The old principal dragged his broken body just to tell you a few words.]

[He understands your youthful spirit, and even more so the pride in your heart.]

You are unwilling to abandon your comrades and brothers and become a person who lives a life of mediocrity.

[But you must remember that a living flame is more important than a dead monument! ]

[No matter what, you must stay rational and not be swayed by emotions.]

【Once you decide to do something, do it no matter what.】

[Since my death is inevitable, I will use all means to maximize the value of my death.]

[After I die, sell my mage equipment. This staff is embedded with a level 45 life core. You can remove it and sell it separately for the highest value.]

[Don't be sad, there's no need to be sad about my departure on the battlefield.]

"As long as my coming and my death can help you and the development of the Red Heart Group, I will be content even if I enter the Nine Netherworld Purgatory."

[You held your mentor's body in your arms. This was the first time you cried so hard under the battle flag that you lost your voice.]

[Even though you know that your mentor is dead, he is not dead.]

[In another world that can continuously receive gifts from time and space, the mentor there is still alive and well.]

[You also believe that the mentor in that world will live well in the future! ]

[But when you look at the white-haired old man in front of you, you can't help but feel pity and tears flow.]

[This old man, for you, for the Red Heart Regiment, can be said to have given everything.]

You secretly vowed in your heart that no matter how difficult the road ahead, the ideal aspiration you promised your mentor to change the world would be realized!

"Don't worry, I will!"

Seeing this, Lin Xia nodded slightly.

There is also this old man who burned his life and the essence of his soul for me, and even taught me earnestly before his death.

He really didn't expect that there would be someone in the world who was so kind to him.

A fourth-level mage, as long as this kind of strong man does not rush to the front line, he can live freely and comfortably even when the country is in turmoil.

Especially for an old principal who has many students all over the world, he will live a very comfortable life.

But the other party still gave his life for himself.

"Let's set a small goal first. Let's make Yuncheng bigger and stronger, and rival or even surpass the top universities in the Federation!"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xia thought to herself, "Since the old principal has this ideal, then I will be responsible for helping him realize it!"
