The comments said I was deeply affectionate, I just added points by using an alternate account.

Baihu's gaze shifted to Li Yan.

His willpower is far stronger than that of ordinary people, and his strength is not bad either. His memories cannot be manipulated at will.

After all, he is a summoner, not a mentalist. Tampering with other people's memories is not his specialty. He just happens to have a ninth-tier mentalist summon.

The white tiger walked up to him and squatted down.

"Choose one," he said softly. "Is a student a monster who turns the tide, or a teacher a hero who burns himself out? Which story is better for them? A hero's story is always more inspiring than a monster's tale, isn't it?"

Li Yan struggled to lift his eyelids.

Looking past the white tiger's shoulder, I saw Chen Guan, pale-faced, supporting a coffin not far away.

He saw the student who wasn't particularly outstanding on a regular basis, but who stood in front of him at the last moment.

Li Yan's eyes softened.

He knew what Baihu was going to do. He saw the changes in An Changqing and the others. Li Yan closed his eyes and gave up resisting.

Just like Baihu said, the hero's story should be the truth.

He believed in his students.

Baihu stood up, patted off imaginary dust from his trousers, and walked towards the coffin.

He brushed past the coffin without pausing for a moment.

A voice that only the two of them could hear entered Chen Guan's ears.

"Well done, reserve."

"But you made too much noise. Remember to be more careful next time. I'll only help you this once."

Chen Guan's body did not move.

He knew in his heart that the commotion the white tiger was making referred to the appearance of its true form.

Carrying this demon god on your back is far more terrifying than Guan Jinyue summoning a demon god.

Once discovered, he would be immediately wanted and become a walking subsidy of billions. He doesn't have Guan Jinyue's troublesome spatial abilities, so he would only be in a worse situation.

This was also why he was initially unwilling to let Lao Ji show up. If Li Yan hadn't been on the verge of death and hadn't been so strong-willed that he wouldn't have fainted, he wouldn't have taken the risk.

Leaving Huaqing means losing the camera, and that's too high a price to pay.

The white tiger walked to the edge of the basin and, just as it had arrived, vanished without a trace. No one could be sure of its intentions.

Just then, several powerful auras descended from the sky.

The sky was torn apart by beams of searchlight light.

Several airships bearing the emblem of Tsinghua University hovered above the basin.

The hatch opened, and dozens of rescue workers and instructors in white uniforms filed out.

The elderly man at the head of the group wore a badge that read "Chief Physician" on his chest.

Upon landing, he immediately locked onto the most critical target on the field.

"Quick! Teacher Li Yan is here!"

Several medical personnel immediately rushed over with a stretcher.

An Changqing and Long Ao were also helped up and received emergency treatment.

An Changqing pushed away the medicine that was offered to his mouth.

"Save the teacher first...Quickly save the teacher!"

"He sacrificed himself to protect us... taking three demon generals with him..."

These words sent a chill down the spines of all the rescuers who arrived at the scene.

Three demon generals?

perish together?

They were well aware of Li Yan's strength; his combat prowess was undeniable.

But to fight three opponents while protecting the students is an impossible task. If Li Yan were that strong, he wouldn't be an ordinary teacher.

The chief physician frowned and his face darkened.

He walked quickly to the stretcher, where various sophisticated medical instruments had already been set up.

A series of blue beams of light began scanning Li Yan's body.

On the screen, the data was being refreshed rapidly.

"Normal bone density!"

"Muscle tissue activity is normal!"

"Nervous system response is normal!"

"The internal organs are intact, and no wounds were found!"

The series of reports stunned everyone around.

An Changqing and Long Ao were even more unable to understand it.

In their memory, the teacher's body was clearly pierced by the demon general's claws, so how could there be no wounds?

The chief physician ignored the crowd's comments.

His gaze was fixed on the curve on the main screen that represented the origin of life.

That curve had become almost a horizontal straight line, with no more undulations.

He took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then put them back on.

The straight data cable silently mocked all his life's learning, like a slap in the face.

The surrounding air quieted down.

Everyone held their breath, awaiting his final diagnosis.

The chief physician looked up, his face as pale as a sheet of paper.

He looked at the professors and students who had gathered around him, his lips moved a few times, and he finally managed to squeeze out some dry words.

"On a physical level... he is flawless."

"But his life force has been completely drained. The instruments show that his vital signs are irreversibly sliding towards zero."

The old man paused, his voice filled with an overwhelming sense of bewilderment.

"This has... gone beyond the scope of medicine."

The chief physician shuddered at this point, his lifelong knowledge regaining its strength. He insisted, "No...it must be a machine malfunction! Quickly, take Professor Li back! Get a different machine for another examination!"

……

The corridors of the medical department were brightly lit.

The smell of disinfectant mixed with a faint stench of blood entered my nostrils.

Chen Guan sat on a cold bench as a nurse examined him, the instruments beeping regularly.

He had no external injuries, but his face was pale.

The medical department was quite lively today. Although Chen Guan and the others were mostly fine, the situation was uncertain for the other students in the Tian Shu class. Even though Li Yan had done his best to save them, he was ultimately alone and couldn't attend to everyone's needs.

Although it seems no one has died, there are probably still some seriously injured people. For example, Su Yuehe has not yet woken up due to exhaustion of her mental energy.

Not far away, An Changqing and Long Ao's wounds had been treated.

Both of them refused the suggestion to enter the intensive care unit and stubbornly stayed at the door of the emergency room.

The red light in the emergency room was on, casting a glow on the corridor floor that looked like a small pool of congealed blood.

There was only one person inside, and that was Li Yan. He was the one whose injury was the most bizarre.

The professors and school leaders around him moved about in hushed tones.

But phrases like "life force exhausted, beyond saving" still drifted over intermittently.

No one noticed the old coffin in the corner.

"Your physical indicators are all normal, it's just that you've been mentally exhausted. Just go back and get some rest."

The nurse put away the equipment and gently instructed her.

"Teacher Li, he..."

"Don't worry." The nurse's expression softened. "The principal has returned, and Teacher Li will be safe and sound."

Chen Guan nodded. Hua Qing Principal Ren Ping is a tenth-level Life System cultivator; perhaps he really does have a trick up his sleeve.

If all else fails, Chen Guan can still ask the all-powerful system shop for help.
