Chapter 502: Eastern Han Academy, the Five Tiger Generals Appear

Zhao Yun shook his head. "This is what you deserve."

"In the future you'll still have to help me out. The Five Tiger Generals should have belonged to you in the first place." Lin Yu would not hear any argument.

Seeing this, Wang Yun stopped insisting that Lin Yu be enfeoffed alongside the others. "Fine then. Since you're willing to accept, I still have a position for you — trainer of the Eastern Han Academy. The Five Tiger Generals will have to listen to you too. Will that work?"

"Thank you, Principal! I think this suits me better." Lin Yu agreed. After all, he was the fake Liu Bei, and being a trainer was just right for letting him help Guan Yu build combat strength, preparing for the great war against the Demon Realm later on.

Wang Yun then continued the medal ceremony, placing the medals on the chests of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong respectively, giving each a pat to show his congratulations.

After the ceremony was over, the group of seven also held a banquet.

In the dining hall, everyone sat around the table, raising their cups in celebration.

"Cheers!"

Xiao Qiao noticed that Guan Yu had not put down the wine cup in his hand and stared at him in puzzlement. Guan Yu gave a bitter smile but could not lower his arm.

"Oh no, something's wrong with Guan Yu's hand!" Xiao Qiao's shout drew the crowd around. At the spot where Guan Yu's arm was injured, demonic Qi was spreading along his meridians.

Seeing this, Lin Yu said calmly, "Everyone eat quickly. After the meal we'll head straight to Mount Tiandang. Guan Yu's hand shouldn't get any worse for now." Though anxious, the crowd could only shove a few bites into their mouths before preparing to leave.

"President Cao, please escort Xiao Qiao and Diao Chan home for me. I'll take Guan Yu and the other classmates to Mount Tiandang." Lin Yu gave Cao Cao an instruction.

"Don't worry, I'll handle it properly." Cao Cao agreed again and again.

"Let's go!"

On the boat, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun ran up to the deck to fish, while Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Lin Yu were all inside the cabin.

Zhang Fei gripped Guan Yu's hand and wouldn't let go, making Guan Yu shout helplessly, "Third Brother, let go! Two grown men holding hands like this is way too weird!"

Zhang Fei grumbled, "Second Brother, I'm just afraid something will happen to you!"

Guan Yu, impatient: "What could happen! Let go of me right now!"

Zhang Fei had no choice but to let go. Hearing shouts from the deck, he got up to check — it turned out they'd caught a big fish and planned to give it to Guan Yu to help him recover. Ma Chao entered the cabin, looked at Guan Yu's hand and exclaimed in shock, "Yunchang, your hand is so black! And there's demonic Qi running wild in it!"

He lightly touched the wound and instantly pulled his hand back. "It feels like it's corroding the bone! Could it be the 'Cheap-Bone Curse'? Those poisoned by it behave absurdly within days, and in the end die a wretched death with a ruined reputation."

Lin Yu consoled them, "No need to get worked up over every little thing. This is only the beginning. Getting to Mount Tiandang sooner means getting it cured sooner."

After arriving at the Mount Tiandang dock, the group still had to take a car up the mountain.

"We still have to switch cars seventeen times!" Huang Zhong sighed as he looked at the map.

"Relax, I arranged everything long ago. No transfers needed." Zhang Fei gave his guarantee.

Suddenly, a shout rang out, "Pervert!"

"Where is this pervert?"

The crowd ran over to ask. An old woman wearing a bamboo hat looked at Guan Yu. "It's him!"

Lin Yu walked over with a wry smile. "Second Brother, bear with it. She's an old lady!"
