Yes, the teacher in front of Shang was Astor. Right now, he was at the Early Commander Stage, and his Battle-Strength felt about average to Shang.
"So, you're a teacher now, huh?" Shang asked with a friendly smile.
Astor looked around and saw that everyone was looking at them.
"Greetings, Count Sword," Astor said, taking a step back and bowing politely.
Shang raised an eyebrow. "Is this really necessary, Astor? We're friends."
When Astor heard these words, a surprised expression appeared on his face. But then, his expression transformed into an uncomfortable one.
"I'm sorry, Count Sword, but I have to get back to teaching."
When Shang heard that, a small tinge of sadness appeared inside his chest, but he quickly got used to it.
'Yes, what have I even been expecting?'
