***********************************
Hearing Zhou Weiqing's words, Cai Cai furrowed her brows, finding his words stabbing her sore spot but still true.
Watching his words having the right effect, he smiled slyly. "You're wrong for taking me for your enemy while in fact, I'm helping you. Just think about it, do you think that I'll bring all the commoners with me? There are only more than 20 students in my class but you know that there are also some seniors who want to follow me too. Then what about in the next four years?... I don't need that many, okay?"
"What do you mean?" Cai Cai was intrigued, totally oblivious to the reason she called him here.
Zhou Weiqing smiled, "Most of it, I'll take twenty with me. As you know, I don't need people with cultivation talent. What I want is... I want people with unique talents. The remaining ones can be assigned to your empire or your family. With that, you can knock down those nobles a peg... Think about it, It'll be a win-win situation for us both."
Cai Cai thought about it and found his words reasonable. Her eyes trembled slightly and she could see the shadow of Jason in the young fellow standing in front of her eyes.
"But why do you do that? Why will you use your money to help us?" Cai Cai asked suspiciously.
Zhou Weiqing snorted, "Humph! Do you think I want to? If not because my Godfather and Father are loyal to friends and my Master making a deal with you, I'll not even care about you. If it's left for me, I'll just snatch them from you but it will affect my godfather and father."
Cai Cai nodded her head. She knew that Admiral Zhou was a principled person and took all favors seriously. And also Jason was a man of his word and would support them as long as they would not point their weapon at him,
She couldn't help but feel grateful to her grandfather who had decided to build a good relationship with Heavenly Bow Empire in the past.
Zhou Weiqing sighed and changed the topic. "Oh yeah, why did you call me? I almost forget about it."
"Ah, It almost slipped my mind." Cai Cai remembered the original reason she called him here. "Actually, I want to send you on a mission in order to protect you. The period of time will be three months, and you will return after that, still a student."
"Mission? What mission?" Zhou Weiqing asked curiously as he looked at her questioningly, there was some guess in his heart.
Cai Cai said, "This is actually a mission of utmost honor, and if you manage to provide any significant contribution, then not mentioning the over dozen noble families you have provoked, even if you anger my father the King, I can still help you withstand it! Since you know about the Five Great Saint Lands, this mission is related to them!"
Zhou Weiqing thought for a moment and nodded. "Ahh! It must be time for the Heavenly Jewel Tournament which is held every three years."
"You know about it too!" Cai Cai said absent-mindedly. It took her quite some time to regain her composure.
After chatting with her regarding it, he finally left the office.
When he returned to the class, he was surprised to see that the class had not even begun.
"We don't have class today?" He asked Ming Hua who was seated at her seat behind the podium.
Ming Hua glanced at him and said. "Without you back, how could any of them concentrate on class? How was it?"
Zhou Weiqing laughed heartily and said. "Everyone relax, our Principal was looking for me for some good news…"
As such, he told Ming Hua and his classmates a summary of what had happened. After all, there was nothing to hide about it.
After listening to him, the greatest reaction was undoubtedly from Ming Hua and Shangguan Bing'er.
Ming Hua was completely shocked. "The Principal actually let you represent the Academy to join the Heavenly Jewel Tournament?!"
Zhou Weiqing said. "What's wrong with that?"
Ming Hua shook her head and said. "Normally, this honor is only reserved for the fourth-year students who are about to graduate, I never expected that both you and Shangguan Bing'er would be given such an honor, such an advantage. You were right, this is indeed something good. During the Heavenly Jewel Tournament, you will be able to observe all the top talents in the Jewel Master world fighting. It will be extremely good for your fighting experience, and open up your eyes."
Zhou Weiqing asked curiously. "Does that mean that Teacher Ming Hua was lucky enough to join it before as well?"
Ming Hua inclined her head in a slight nod, saying: "Yes, in the previous Tournament, I was our Academy's representative. You both can set your minds at ease and go, as for your studies, when you return, there will be special remedial lessons for you to cover the lessons missed."
"Alright, now that Zhou Weiqing is back, let's begin our class." Ming Hua waved for Zhou Weiqing to take his seat before she started her lesson.
Zhou Weiqing went back to his seat, his mind elsewhere thinking about the events related to the tournament...
Cai Cai had advised him to not leave the Academy for the next three days but he couldn't as he had a meeting.
After leaving the academy, he went to his agents' hideout.
"Young Master!"
"Young Master!"
They had rented three houses but for tonight's meeting, they had gathered at the main one.
Zhou Weiqing nodded his head and took his seat at the head before asking about the report.
Yan Mo took a step forward and reported. "Young Master, as you commanded, I've sent words back. Reinforcement is expected to arrive tomorrow. I'd also devised a plan in the meantime."
"Oh," Zhou Weiqing signaled him to continue.
Yan Mo nodded his head and continued. "Young Master, we'll use bait to lure them out to the forest. There we'll use the arrays and formation to trap them and finish them in one fell swoop. It's just an outline and for the final plan, it'll be discussed with the strategist, Yi Shi."
"Good!" Weiqing praised him.
"Thank you, Young Master." Yan Mo bowed and replied humbly but anyone could hear the happiness in his voice.
Everyone else shot a jealous glare at him, wishing to be in his place.
