Chapter 498: Principal Park's Arrival
Chapter 498: Principal Park's Arrival
"Rest assured, we'll stay here and won't get too close," Li Qian said, standing on the back of the Flame Dragon Falcon, addressing the official personnel who flew over to intercept his path.
In reality, even if he hadn't said it, Li Qian wouldn't have approached recklessly. Doing so would have been irresponsible for his own safety and also disrespectful to Elder Ying and President Pan Bing.
Li Qian was well aware that given his position at Shazhou Beastmaster University, if he were to fall into danger, the school would undoubtedly make every effort to rescue him, which would undoubtedly cause them trouble.
Li Qian wisely hovered in mid-air, not daring to approach. In no time, more teachers from Shazhou Beastmaster University arrived.
As for the students, none were in sight, probably because they were not allowed to get close and had been stopped.
In actuality, Li Qian guessed that if he hadn't left quickly, he would have been stopped too. After all, this unexpected incident was clearly out of the ordinary.
The danger level was undoubtedly high.
Many teachers, directors, and deans from Shazhou Beastmaster University rushed over, and most of them glanced at Li Qian.
It was evident that, not just within the entire school but among the teaching circle, Li Qian had already become quite famous.
The group was stopped, and everyone summoned their companion beasts, at least one each, to be on guard and ready to provide support. Two teachers, seemingly more powerful, possibly Holy Spirit Rank Beastmasters, were allowed to enter Blackstone Town.
Yes, just now, through the teachers' narratives, Li Qian learned the name of the town below.
Staring at Blackstone Town, which appeared normal on the surface, Li Qian remained patient.
He continued to observe and ponder carefully.
Beside him, many teachers from Shazhou Beastmaster University shared similar expressions of solemnity.
Li Qian was curious and turned to a teacher beside him.
He vaguely remembered this teacher, probably from a previous encounter when he went to learn the Array Dance from Teacher Liang.
He was a teacher from the Archaeology College.
Li Qian looked at the teacher and asked, "Teacher Su, what exactly happened down there?"
"Li Qian, we don't know either."
"We received the vice-president's order to come here as soon as possible and maintain vigilance around Blackstone Town."
Teacher Su, with whom Li Qian had a brief encounter, replied, "If the situation is urgent, we'll join the Array team to provide support; other than that, nothing else was mentioned."
Li Qian wasn't surprised that Teacher Su recognized and remembered his name.
Nowadays, he was somewhat of a celebrity within Shazhou Beastmaster University.
Since he couldn't get any answers, Li Qian didn't ask further. Instead, he remained vigilant, keeping his eyes on Blackstone Town below.
After about three minutes, a blinding light suddenly illuminated the surroundings of Blackstone Town.
The light instantly condensed and formed a shield.
The shield, like an overturned bowl, covered the entire Blackstone Town.
Li Qian frowned deeply at this sight.
The need to use an array to isolate the entire Blackstone Town indicated an extraordinary situation.
"By the way, Teacher Su, do you know why they built a town here?"
"Last year, during the previous semester, I came here once, but I didn't see this town."
Unable to obtain any intelligence on Dean Pan Bing and the Mountain Guardian, Li Qian decided to change his line of inquiry.
"Don't you know?"
Su Teacher looked at Li Qian and said with a hint of strangeness, "A dimensional rift appeared within this Black Stone Forest, leading to a deeper dimensional plane."
"To suppress this dimensional rift and explore the dimensional plane within, Shazhou Beastmaster University took the lead in establishing this Black Stone Town."
"Oh, I see."
Upon hearing this, Li Qian's face revealed a moment of sudden realization.
He nodded, responding in agreement.
Just as the two were talking, something bizarre happened. The ground beneath Black Stone Town suddenly began to shake violently.
Yes, it shook bizarrely, like an earth dragon turning over, without any warning signs.
Li Qian's eyes narrowed at this sight.
Amidst this strange shaking, the inverted sea bowl light shield, also known as the Guardian Array, once again flashed with dazzling light.
After a moment of flashing light, the entire town quieted down.
It was clear that something unexpected had occurred and was then suppressed by the Guardian Array.
Just as Li Qian was wondering what had just happened, three more teachers were allowed to enter Black Stone Town.
The three teachers, with their companion beasts, entered the town and then dispersed in four different directions.
They immediately took action, each heading towards one of the four cardinal directions.
It was evident that, as Su Teacher had said, this group of teachers was summoned by the vice-president to manage the array and ensure its stability.
This also revealed the extent of the terrifying crisis hidden within the dimensional rift.
As everyone anxiously waited, their hearts filled with unease, a figure appeared in the not-too-distant sky and, with a whoosh, flew over at an incredibly fast speed.
The figure, accompanied by the sound of breaking wind, was like a roaring fighter jet. In the blink of an eye, it had already arrived in front of Li Qian.
Li Qian looked at this figure, his face showing a hint of surprise.
The reason for his surprise was that this person did not ride a companion beast but was flying through the air in their physical body.
Li Qian recognized this person—none other than the principal of Shazhou Beastmaster University, Park Zhiyong.
It was clear that Principal Park had been delayed by something, which was why he arrived so late.
Otherwise, with such a significant event, he would have been the first to arrive.
With his presence as a legendary Beastmaster, he would undoubtedly be able to handle any issues within Black Stone Town.
Principal Park transformed into a stream of light and shot into Black Stone City at an incredible speed, disappearing from sight.
The arrival of Principal Park put the teachers at ease, and they all began to talk among themselves.
"Alright, it's fine now!"
"With Principal Park here, we're definitely safe!"
"Yes, Principal Park is a legendary Beastmaster. No matter the problem, he should be able to resolve it effortlessly!"
"..."
Li Qian also heard the teachers' chatter, but his eyebrows remained furrowed. His intuition told him that this matter was not as simple to resolve as they thought.
