Gu Tianxing arrived at the academy and immediately secluded himself in his residence, much to the relief of everyone there.

"This Gu Tianxing, it seems his temperament has really changed. Five years ago, relying on his powerful influence, he drove many academy disciples away, and some were even tormented by him to the point of being utterly destroyed," sighed a former classmate when recalling past events.

"Well, he is the young master of the Gu Family, after all. His father, Gu Changge, indulged him too much. The academy had to persuade the Gu Family for a long time before they agreed to take him away, or else the academy would have been completely ruined by him."

"But isn't the academy supposed to be the most authoritative and fair place in the Dao Prefecture? Why would they fear just one Gu Family? Don't other forces intervene?"
