Chapter 7

The next day.

Ning An had already woken up early; after cultivating for so many years, his routine was not easily changed.

Looking at his sleeping wife beside him, he had no intention of disturbing her.

It was mainly because things were a bit crazy last night.

Plus, having not seen each other for a few years, he had certainly used all his strength.

"It seems Zhiqiao was more passionate last night than in the past!"

However, Ning An also had his doubts.

Fortunately, Ning An did not dwell on this for long.

Instead, he began his day's cultivation.

Previously, by leveraging his accumulated efforts, he had rushed to the late stage of the third rank in one go.

But his cultivation base was not very stable.

So the joy of the breakthrough did not last long, and Ning An began to cultivate step-by-step as before.

There was a dedicated cultivation room set up in the house.

Usually, Wen Zhiqiao used it, but now it was naturally Ning An's turn.

After Wen Zhiqiao woke up, her face could not help but turn slightly red.

She also recalled her own madness from last night.

On one hand, it was because of the shock brought by the Wisdom Spirit Fruit yesterday.

On the other hand, it was because she had a request for her husband.

That was why she was like that!

However, she soon discovered that she had slept until almost noon.

Fortunately, she had no classes in the morning.

Mother Ning had no dissatisfaction with Wen Zhiqiao.

She even hoped to take advantage of this period to hold another grandson.

In the era of spiritual energy recovery, there were no restrictions on childbirth.

It was even encouraged, as people were constantly falling on the battlefield.

The number of humans was constantly decreasing.

And only with a sufficiently large base could more martial artists be born.

"Husband, I wonder if you could spare some time to give special training to the students I teach."

At the lunch table, Wen Zhiqiao finally gathered the courage to ask.

As her words fell, a flash of realization crossed Ning An's eyes.

He had been wondering why Wen Zhiqiao was a bit different last night.

It turned out she had a favor to ask!

He knew a little about the class his wife taught.

This year should be their third year of high school, meaning the college entrance exam would be held in a little over a month.

Based on the situation of Qingshan No. 15 High School in previous years.

He was not very optimistic about Wen Zhiqiao's class either.

It was likely that not even one would get into a martial arts university.

After so many years of spiritual energy recovery, although there should be dozens of martial arts universities.

Each one only recruited a few hundred people every year.

It was not that they did not want to recruit more, but resources were limited.

Secondly, the Qingshan Base was indeed significantly worse than many other bases.

It was ranked at the bottom in the Southwest region.

Not to mention the entire Shenxia Federation.

Furthermore, the competition among middle schools in the Qingshan Base itself was very fierce.

Qingshan No. 15 High School could only be considered mid-tier among all middle schools in the Qingshan Base.

In Ning An's eyes, it was likely that most would have to join the Lianbang Army.

However, a request from his wife was very rare.

Plus, Ning An had indeed not returned for a long time, failing to fulfill his responsibilities as a husband.

"Let's go take a look at how these students are doing first!?"

After hesitating, Ning An finally spoke up.

After his words fell, Wen Zhiqiao could not help but show a smile.

Although their relationship was a bit strange, she still had a good understanding of this husband.

If he did not refuse, then there was a great chance.

This made Wen Zhiqiao very excited.

In the afternoon, Ning An rode a bicycle with Wen Zhiqiao to Qingshan No. 15 High School.

They were in no rush along the way, looking at the changes along the route.

He had been in a hurry to return before and had not paid much attention to the changes in the Qingshan Base.

Now it seemed there were quite a few changes compared to three years ago.

For example, the roads had clearly been repaired.

And the buildings along the way had clearly been rebuilt as well.

"How is Qingshan No. 15 High School doing now?!"

"The old principal should have retired, right?!"

Ning An had not forgotten to ask Wen Zhiqiao.

After all, this was his alma mater, even if this alma mater was indeed not very good.

"It hasn't changed much since we were students."

"Although the Qingshan Base has increased support for students."

"It is also based on the annual college entrance exam results."

"Many new students with good aptitude also tend to go to higher-ranked middle schools."

Wen Zhiqiao shook her head and said, her words carrying quite a bit of sighing.

From her grandfather's generation, they had been teachers at Qingshan No. 15 High School.

To her father, and then to her own generation, they all were!

However, seeing Qingshan No. 15 High School being mediocre, she still felt some unwillingness in her heart.

"Also, the old principal has retired!"

"The new principal is named Wu Zhiqiang, in his early forties!"

"I heard he retired from the war zone."

"Although he has some ideas to change things, the results have been minimal."

After a pause, Wen Zhiqiao's voice continued.

Even she was somewhat pessimistic about the future of Qingshan No. 15 High School.

Following Wen Zhiqiao's explanation, Ning An gained a new understanding of his former alma mater.

As time passed, they arrived at the school without realizing it!

When Ning An carried Wen Zhiqiao into the school.

It attracted quite a few gazes!

Wen Zhiqiao was stunningly beautiful, especially at nearly thirty, she was at the peak of her beauty.

Coupled with her strength as a martial artist, she had become a goddess in the eyes of many students.

If not for the rumors that she had married early, who knows how many pursuers she would have had.

At least many people had a lot of good feelings toward Wen Zhiqiao.

"Is that Teacher Wen?!"

"That person should be Teacher Wen's husband?!"

"I feel like I've been heartbroken; I could still fantasize a bit before."

"They are a talented man and a beautiful woman, where is there room for objection."

Many students discussed, their words carrying quite a few sighs.

Of course, as a martial artist, Ning An's ears were still very sharp.

He heard the students' discussion immediately.

However, it seemed expected that Wen Zhiqiao was so popular among the students.

At least Wen Zhiqiao still firmly held the position of the school beauty.

Choosing Ning An back then had shocked many people.

In the eyes of many classmates back then, Ning An was just a bit lucky.

To have been admitted to Nanjiang Martial Arts University.

Mainly because at the very beginning, Nanjiang Martial Arts University had not been established for long.

There were even rumors that because of a shortage of troops, even students had to go to the battlefield.

Causing many students to be afraid to apply.

That year, Nanjiang Martial Arts University indeed did not have high requirements for blood-Qi for admission.

It was even at the bottom among all martial arts universities.

Plus, with few applicants, there was not much competition.

And Nanjiang Martial Arts University also provided care for students from the same region.

Of course, there were actually other factors.

For example, if a martial artist's hometown was in the same region, they certainly could not run away.

Under many factors, Ning An successfully got into Nanjiang Martial Arts University.

The two did not care about the words of these students.

Ning An followed Wen Zhiqiao into the office first.

He was not unfamiliar with this place, because the school had not undergone major construction over the years.

Everything was still the same!

But there was really no way, who let the school have so little funding.

After arriving at the office, Wen Zhiqiao also introduced Ning An to many colleagues.

Many people had their curiosity satisfied!

Before, some teachers who were unaware thought Wen Zhiqiao was single.

As a result, many jokes were made.

This made people even more curious about who Wen Zhiqiao's husband was.

"Sister Li, this is my husband, Ning An!"

"This is Sister Li, who has always taken care of me at school."
