Chapter 152 The Divided Kassel Academy
Chu Zihang, who obtained the power of Norton, returned to the city and was anxious to find clues of Odin, but unfortunately the gate of Nibelung was not so easy to open.

"Is everything okay at the college?" he asked Zhang Baiqing.

"There is nothing wrong at the moment, and they haven't noticed that Norton has been dealt with by us."

"Could Odin be the one behind Kassel Academy?" Chu Zihang asked Zhang Baiqing thoughtfully.

Zhang Baiqing: "No, brother, you are obsessed. Everyone looks like Odin to you."

Chu Zihang didn't say anything, didn't look at him, but stared at the ground, still thinking.

His hatred for Odin was the hatred for his father's murder, which in ancient times would be a feud that would not end until one of his life is dead.

If he doesn't take revenge, he won't be a good son.

Now that he has the power to take revenge, he is of course eager to find Odin and fight him.

Zhang Baiqing said: "Odin will not be found for a while, and the real problem now is how to deal with the dragon bone cross of Constantine?"

They took the problems that occurred after Chu Zihang absorbed Norton's royal bloodline very seriously. Without the precedent of Dragon Kings devouring each other, there were certain risks involved, and Xia Mi did not dare to be careless about this matter.

"Let's get the Dragon Bone Cross of Constantin first." Chu Zihang said without hesitation, "Whether to swallow it or not is up to Xia Mi and Fenrir. Let's get it first. If we can't strengthen ourselves, we can't strengthen others. No matter what trap there is, it will definitely bring a huge improvement in strength. If we don't get this Dragon Bone Cross, it may become a factor in others' success in defeating us. Such an important item must not be handed over to others."

After he finished speaking, he was also stunned for a moment.

He used to be a courageous man, but his words just now contained a hint of the enemy's planning.

This is not the way Chu Zihang should think...

Zhang Baiqing looked at him, sized him up for a while, and said, "This Dragon King bloodline trap has a more serious impact on you than you imagined."

What Chu Zihang just said should be considered by the top management. Obviously, although Chu Zihang has a good brain, he will definitely not be so decisive.

Well, Norton is a king and has been a leader of a force, so it is normal for him to have such thoughts.

After Chu Zihang thought for a moment, he said, "But this is right."

"Indeed." Zhang Baiqing nodded. He also felt that it was correct, but his gaze always stayed on Chu Zihang.

With a stern face and cold eyes, he still looked like the same Chu Zihang, but Zhang Baiqing thought of the Ship of Theis in his heart.

A century-old ship has had its parts replaced time and again during repair and maintenance. After all the parts have been replaced, is it still the original ship?

This philosophical question still has no standard answer. Everyone has his or her own opinion, but most people believe that this ship is no longer the original ship.

Zhang Baiqing shook his head and shook the thought out of his mind.

You can't think too much about this kind of thing, as it's easy to get stuck in a dead end. From the current perspective, Chu Zihang is still Chu Zihang, and there hasn't been any outrageous change.

The parts of the ship have not been replaced yet, and most people will think that the ship is still the same ship.

The extra vacation Zhang Baiqing applied for was very long, directly covering the school's winter vacation.

Winter and summer vacations abroad vary depending on the country where the school is located, and are generally two to three months. But correspondingly, the longer the summer vacation, the shorter the winter vacation.

The winter and summer vacations in the United States are similar to those in China, but the difference in Europe is greater.

It's almost a month's winter vacation again. Universities in China generally haven't started their vacation yet, but Lu Mingfei and other Chinese students have already returned to China.

But when Lu Mingfei returned to China, Zhang Baiqing and the others had already run away again.

They did not take advantage of the lack of staff at Kassel Academy to rob directly, but went to Tokyo, Japan first.

They came here to find the Eight Clans of Sheqi.

The "living antique" Uesugi Yue has read the historical records of the Eight Snake Families and knows a lot. They can come to him first to ask about these things.

"You came!"

The people who came to pick her up at the airport were Gen Chisei and Eri. She was happy as she hadn't seen Zhang Baiqing for a long time.

"Yeah." Zhang Baiqing nodded to her with a smile, then looked at Yuan Zhisheng, who had a serious face and had become aloof after becoming completely accustomed to the position of the patriarch.

"Yuan Zhisheng, did your brother fight with you after he woke up? Who won?"

Zhang Baiqing didn't pay attention to what happened to Gen Chinu after that, and he forgot to ask about Gen Chinu at school. He only remembered it when he came to Tokyo and saw Gen Chisheng.

Yuan Zhisheng was very good at cultivating his Qi, so he didn't draw his sword to chop him. He wanted to see if his sword was still sharp after he had been the head of the family for almost a year.

This guy really keeps bringing up things that are not relevant. Although his brother didn't get the chance to fight with him after waking up, who doesn't know about the hatred between them?

Let’s not talk about the girls who were killed by Gen Chinuo. Putting aside the facts, there is absolutely no problem for Gen Chinuo to beat up her brother Gen Chisheng when they meet!

Yuan Zhisheng's expression became even more expressionless: "The relationship between us brothers is not as fragile as Zhang Jun imagined. You don't need to worry about this matter."

Then he asked, "I wonder what business Mr. Zhang has in Japan? If you are just transiting, our Sheqi Eight Clan can provide a private jet for Mr. Zhang to take at any time, so that Mr. Zhang can go wherever he wants conveniently."

Hui Liyi opened the car door, Zhang Baiqing got in and said, "Now that we are here, there is no need to leave in a hurry. Let's go to your house and have a meal first."

Yuan Zhisheng had a blank expression on his face, and replied in a formulaic manner: "Of course, the Sheqi Eight Clan always welcomes Mr. Zhang's visit."

The door of the car was opened by the Tsukuyomi Nobuki of the Snake Eight Clan, and the head of the family, Amaterasu Nobuki, drove the car to pick them up personally. At least the appearance was full. The meal was a bit shabby, but it was full of sincerity. The ramen was made by the former Kage Emperor of the Snake Eight Clan, and Amaterasu Nobuki, Susanoo Nobuki, Tsukuyomi Nobuki, and the former Kage Emperor accompanied them.

"Why did you come to see me?" Uesugi Yue asked him.

Zhang Baiqing looked at Chu Zihang, and Chu Zihang asked, "I wonder if you have ever heard of Odin?"

Uesugi Yue nodded: "Odin, the king of gods in Norse mythology? Of course I know about this. After all, I was in Europe until I was 18 years old and studied European culture, so I know about these things."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "If you're talking about the Dragon King Odin, then unfortunately, I don't know much. In the ancient books of the Eight Snakes, there aren't many records about this mysterious Nordic God King. It's just that it's suspected to be a certain Dragon King, but it's unclear which one it is."

When Chu Zihang heard that there was a record, he immediately asked, "Where is the record? Has he appeared anywhere?"

"Let me think about it." Uesugi Yueya couldn't remember it clearly. He had a hard time reading ancient Japanese. He would only look through those ancient books when he was bored. If he hadn't been the movie king for 10 years, with more than 3000 days of accumulation, he wouldn't know much.

However, he only flipped through most of the ancient books casually, leaving a superficial impression in his mind. He would naturally forget about them when he didn't need them, but he could still remember some of them when he needed them.

He closed his eyes and thought for a long time before opening them and saying, "You are lucky, because I know the Norse God King Odin, so I have some impression of him. Odin's miracles appear on all continents, but the most concentrated area is still in Northern Europe, especially the Arctic Circle."

Even if it appears once every hundred years, it has appeared at least fifty or sixty times over several thousand years. Excluding those that are not recorded, even if the remaining ones are only 30%, there are records of more than a dozen appearances.

The records of these dozen or so occurrences span thousands of years, and only Japan, which was relatively closed in the past, could have preserved these records over thousands of years. Otherwise, they would have been completely lost after a few turmoils and fires.

"Arctic Circle? I see. Thank you." Chu Zihang thanked him solemnly.

"Are you going to deal with Odin again?" Uesugi Yue looked at Chu Zihang's posture, as if Odin was very important to him.

And Chu Zihang couldn't possibly be going to Odin to repay his gratitude, right?

"What's the point of making it sound so serious? It's just a little friction with Odin." Zhang Baiqing said.

"A small friction with the Dragon King's enemy. Haha, I hope your strength can be as high as your style." Uesugi Yue glanced at his worried daughter casually and said, "Do you need me to prepare a coffin for you? I can also prepare the most grand funeral for you."

"Forget about that. You are not a child anymore. How can an elder prepare a coffin for us, the younger generation, first? We should be the ones preparing the coffin and funeral for you." Zhang Baiqing immediately responded in a veiled manner.

Uesugi Yue was not angry. This kid was just like that. He said, "Haha, although I am old, I don't walk on a tightrope."

“Although I walk on a tightrope, I am very skilled.”

After a friendly exchange during dinner time, the atmosphere between Zhang Baiqing and Uesugi Yue returned to what it was before. Under the moonlight, the two of them drank wine and ate barbecue, while Eri was busy pouring wine for them.

"I heard that Kassel Academy has already dealt with the Bronze and Fire Kings in the eggs?" Uesugi Yue asked him.

Kassel College once again demonstrated its leaky nature. Because it recruits mixed-race people from all over the world, it is really infiltrated like a sieve. Unless it is something that only the board of directors and a very small number of people like Angers know about, if more people know about it, everyone will know it at once.

Zhang Baiqing said: "It has been dealt with, but not resolved. The school board and the principal are arguing again over how to deal with the Dragon Bone Cross of the King of Bronze and Fire. There is no decision yet."

"I understand this. It's annoying to be involved in intrigues with those old guys."

Speaking of this, Uesugi Yue gets angry. Those old guys rely on their age, they have seen more things, read more books, and they talk in a lot of different ways. They are old and stubborn.

What era is this now? Those old guys who can’t keep up with the times should step down and make room for the young people!
Zhang Baiqing said, "Well... the principal's situation is not that bad. At least it is much better than when you were the movie king. He has a lot of prestige. He has a lot of supporters when he sits on the school board. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to hold on to this position. But, the principal seems to be a very old man, right?"

Ange lived to be over a hundred years old and still looked strong. After becoming the principal of Kassel College, he could be said to have outlasted many young people.

Uesugi Yue thought for a moment and said, "That's right. Ange has occupied the position of principal of Kassel College for too long, and has not given young people a chance to come forward. With your current strength and record, why don't you try to impact the position of principal of Kassel College? We, the Eight Snake Families, will definitely support you."

"But I think you might as well do it." Zhang Baiqing said.

"I am nothing. I am not from Kassel Academy, so I cannot become their core. And it does not mean that you can become the president of Kassel Academy just because you have strong individual combat power. What era is it now? In World War II, infantry and tanks were all about coordination. Now we must pay attention to coordination and cooperation."

Uesugi Yue scratched his nose and said, "You think S-level is very precious in a global environment. In terms of regions, there are indeed very few S-level. There are extremely rare S-level in each region. But if we count globally, there are still some, some in the open and some in the dark, some alive and some half-dead. If Kassel Academy had not split, even if our Sheqi Eight Clan relied on the White King's bloodline and the four emperors were in a three-way tie, and the personnel were restored to the level of a year ago, we would not be able to defeat Kassel Academy. Of course, if they forcefully defeated us, our strength would definitely be damaged."

"The split at Kassel College?" Zhang Baiqing looked gossipy. "Tell me more."

Uesugi Yue didn't pay much attention to this. Seeing that he was interested, he casually said, "There's nothing much to say about this. It's just a normal disagreement and internal division. The goal of Kassel Academy to slay dragons is to save humanity, right? The faction led by Ange will of course lead the hybrids and the dragons to fight to the death. The other faction standing opposite Ange believes that humans cannot deal with dragons in this era, so it is better to preserve the human flame and lead humans out in the next era."

"The separatist behavior of this other faction would be considered heresy in any organization, right? As the saying goes, foreign enemies can live, but heretics must die. But they were not dealt with by Angers, who was used to being strong. You can imagine how strong they are. At the very least, if they forcibly take down these traitors, the faction headed by Angers would also suffer great losses, so they did not take action."

Uesugi Yue drank his wine and said, "Of course, I only heard about this from Ah He. This happened 20 or 30 years ago. At that time, I was still selling ramen in the back street of Tokyo University. I don't know the details of these things."

"So that's it!"

Zhang Baiqing understood the identity of Chu Zihang's father. He was from another faction that split from Kassel Academy.

No wonder Kassel Academy doesn’t have Chu Tianjiao, an S-level legend, but Chu Tianjiao knows Kassel Academy and has the box with the Half-Decayed World Tree Badge.

He was originally from Kassel College, just a heretic.

"But boy, why do you want to slay a dragon for no reason? Isn't it better to live a peaceful life?"

Uesugi Yue looked at his daughter who had been quietly pouring wine for them and sighed.

This daughter doesn't like to talk, but when she meets Zhang Baiqing, she has a clear desire to communicate, but she doesn't know what to say.

Before awakening his Word Spirit, he was also a young boy and understood this feeling.

　I've been busy these days. I'll make up for what I owed yesterday when I'm free in the next few days. I've prepared a new book, and now I have 8,000 words updated per day for the two books combined. I'm a bit overwhelmed.
