Chapter 221

The air was thick with the roar of voices and a bustling, festive energy that echoed far and wide. The massive trading bazaar consisted of six wide streets stretching from left to right, flanking the main thoroughfare of Qiubai Academy and extending all the way to the high wall on its eastern side. The entire bazaar was further divided into various zones by streets running north to south, creating a scene of vibrant activity. This was the students' favorite place to gather after class. One particular main street had been converted by the academy into rows of tiny storefronts available for rent to students in need, filled with a dizzying array of goods. The students affectionately dubbed this street "Department Store Alley." At this moment, the group wandered through Department Store Alley, snacking on a variety of treats. Qiubai Academy was encircled by high walls, with guards patrolling in shifts around the clock. The group’s academy uniforms were quite conspicuous, and after their battle earlier that day, they had made quite a name for themselves in Qiubai Academy. As they walked down the street, they drew constant attention. However, having spent so much time by Murong Yunsheng’s side, this sort of spectacle occurred often enough that the group had grown accustomed to it. Being looked at wouldn't cost them a piece of flesh, after all.
