Chapter 504: Chapter60-The Most Run-Down Academy

The others looked at Tyrande with thoughtful expressions.

Tyrande continued, "This matter is not just about Krom; it also concerns the reputation of Lioncrest Academy. So what if he's exceptionally talented? As long as he isn't a student of Lioncrest Academy, he is nothing more than a hopeless piece of trash!"

Most of the elders of Lioncrest Academy, after weighing the pros and cons, chose to agree.

Some, however, still hesitated.

Seeing that most of the elders approved of her words, Tyrande continued:

"Lioncrest Academy has always been an absolute giant. Since he dared to join the enemy Sirius Academy, there's even less reason for us to spare him. Let his corpse remain here!"

"Exactly! Not joining Lioncrest Academy isn't our loss—it's Alan's greatest regret!"

"Only those who join our academy can be called geniuses! The rest are just trash!"

"Sirius Academy took in the trash we discarded. What a joke!"

Before long, with Lioncrest Academy fanning the flames, the reputation of Alan as a 'failure' began to spread.

Alongside his name, the state of Sirius Academy also became widely discussed—its decline reaching the point of being trampled into the dirt.

"I heard Sirius Academy is nearly abandoned!"

"No wonder they accept just anyone, even the rejects from Lioncrest Academy. And they think they'll produce strong fighters? Ha!"

A remote mountain path.

Alan carried Isabella on his back, following the elderly man with a bulbous, red nose. Though the man walked unsteadily, his pace was surprisingly fast.

"My headache feels much better now. Put me down—I can walk on my own."

"You just started recovering. Close your eyes and get some rest."

"I'm fine now, really. Brother, please… don't beg others like that again."

"Alright, whatever you say. Your brother will always listen to you!"

"I knew you were the best!"

Under the old man's guidance, they twisted and turned along the mountain path, soon arriving at a valley surrounded on three sides by towering peaks.

At the entrance of the valley stood an ancient stone monument, inscribed with three archaic words—Sirius Academy!

The carved letters carried an air of history, but layers of moss and creeping vines covered most of the surface, making the academy seem utterly desolate.

"Since the fall of Sirius Academy, you're the first person to voluntarily join."

Alan wasn't particularly concerned about that. Instead, he curiously asked:

"Senior, does that mean… I'm the only student here now?"

"Not quite. With you included, there are two students."

"Two students?"

Alan's mouth twitched. Two students… and they still called this an academy?

The old man chuckled. "Don't worry too much. I've managed to, uh, persuade—no, recruit—two more students. This year, we should have a total of four."

Isabella had already known that Sirius Academy was in a dire state, but she hadn't imagined it was this bad.

"Brother, I think we just walked into a trap."

Alan also felt that everything about this place screamed "unreliable." But he was still grateful to the old man and smiled.

"No matter what, the senior saved you. That alone makes it all worth it."

Under the old man's direction, Alan carried Isabella into the valley.

At its center stood several large halls.
