Chapter 1: Choices
Han Feng's expression was blank, but his heart had already become a mess. All along, he has always taken the eight colleges as his goal. If the talent is not strong, make up for it with extra efforts, and if the conditions are not good, try your best to seize every opportunity to improve your magic level.
All the efforts are to be able to enter the Eight Compounds one day in the future. As a result, just when he was close to the Eight Compounds, he was told that the Eight Compounds were not suitable for his development. This is tantamount to a slap in the face for Han Feng, and the goal he has been working for is meaningless.
Han Feng was unable to make a decision for a long time! He was vacillating, not knowing whether he should stick to his long-standing goal or follow the advice of the Stormy Waves? Intellectually speaking, it was impossible for him to have no purpose in his status as the Stormy Waves. Since he opened his mouth, it must be as he said, Deep Blue Academy is his best choice. However, the past dream is within reach, and he is really unwilling to give up like this.
Seeing Han Feng's dilemma, Feng Futao knew that he would definitely not be able to make a decision in a short period of time. He just didn't want to see Han Feng waste his talent, so he would mention one or two out of good intentions. As for how Han Feng would choose, it was not up to him to decide, and he didn't want to interfere too much.
"It's up to you to choose how to go in the future. In life, there is never a good or bad, only whether you want to or not. The road is just a human being! Those words just now are just my own opinion of an old man, and they may or may not be biased. If you want to listen, you can listen, if you don't want to listen, just think of me as an old man. General Feng Futao smiled heartily. "Other people's opinions can only be regarded as references, only your own ideas are the most important. You must carefully choose your own path! Once you have made a choice, no matter what kind of difficulties you face, no matter how hard and tired you are, you must persevere! Because this is your own choice, you cannot complain about others. โ
Han Feng's expression was solemn and he nodded seriously. "I know. No one has the right to regret the decision he has made! This is not only cowardice, but also an insult to himself and an insult to his own efforts! Please rest assured that I will make a prudent decision. Even if it's not the best option, I'll stick with it!"
"Good!" said Storm with an approving smile. He picked up the letter of recommendation on the table and said, "It seems that you have come to your senses. In that case, I don't think I need to say anything more. If you change your mind, feel free to come to me at the Raging Waves Legion's headquarters. You should know where the Raging Legion is located, right?"
"Thank you!" Han Feng stood up from his seat, nodded, and said with a wry smile: "My mind is very messy now, I don't have any ideas, let alone change my mind." That's right, General Wind. If nothing else, I'd like to take my leave. โ
Feng Fury waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go." Go back and think about it, there will never be only one path to success. Whatever your choice, it's all the same. The only difference is that some roads will make you a little less detoured and a little closer to success. โ
When Han Feng heard this, he was thoughtful. However, he did not say anything, but after saying goodbye to the generals present, he turned and left the dean's room, leaving the place that might have changed the course of his life.
After Han Feng left, one of the young generals present couldn't help but ask, "General, what do you say this Han Feng will choose in the end?"
Feng Fury glanced at him and said nonchalantly, "Who knows? I'm not him, how do I know what he will doยทยทยทยทยทยท?" The sound of the wind and waves became quieter and quieter, and by the end, no one heard him say anything at all.
"I'm afraid that the general's kindness is destined to have no effect. "One of the older generals was a little indignant. "Looking at that Han Feng, you know that he is very stubborn, not like a person who can listen to other people's opinions. You didn't see it, he didn't even want to accept the general's letter of recommendation. I find it strange that although this Han Feng has a good talent, he can also be regarded as a genius. However, there are so many geniuses in this world, why does the general have a blue eye for him?"
"Do you think I fancy his talent?" said Storm Fury, placing the teacup back on the table. "Talent is such a thing, it's really not good to be too bad, but it can't decide everything. Talent can only determine a person's starting point, but not the end. Although he is very immature, I can indeed see in Han Feng the qualities that a strong man must have: never give up, as long as there is a slight possibility, he will not give up, and be able to judge the situation rationally and not be confused by the false name of foreign things. These are the qualities that a strong person must have. Last but not least, he stayed true to his principles throughout, even in the face of temptations that he couldn't refuse. Only this kind of persistence can make it possible to create a truly strong person. โ
"There are countless reasons to be weak, but the reasons for being strong are surprisingly similar! I want you to remember that, especially the young among you. I don't expect you all to be a strong man, because it's impossible. Everyone knows how to be a strong person, but the real strong people are very few. But being able to keep it in mind is enough for you to be of great use. That's why I'm here with you. โ
While General Feng Futao was educating his subordinates, Han Feng was also thinking about his future. If it weren't for this conversation, then he would have chosen Xianglong Academy, the most prestigious higher magic academy. However, after learning about the existence of the Deep Blue Academy, he had to think about it.
"Smack!"
Suddenly, he was tapped the shoulder. Surprised, Han Feng turned around and looked back, but unexpectedly, the movement was too big, pulling on the wound, and he gasped in pain.
"Hey, are you okay?" Seeing this, the visitor was also taken aback, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him. I didn't think about it, but this help just held the wound.
"Whew!!" Han Feng kicked this reckless guy away: "Stop, don't come here! I'm a wounded now, and I can't stand your old toss." You'd better stay away from me. โ
"I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!" the person who came apologized again and again, but he didn't dare to touch Han Feng casually.
"Forget it. I didn't know you when I was a kid, I was always so reckless. After Han Feng breathed a sigh of relief, he said angrily.
This reckless guy is none other than Han Feng's friend, Zeng Cong, who has played together since childhood. The parents of the two already knew each other, and the two of them knew each other at a very young age as peers. Zeng Cong's magical talent is not high, so he can only stay in the D-level class. Although there is a lot less communication between each other because they are not in the same class, the relationship between the two has always been very good.
"What were you thinking? Why do you look absent-minded? I called you several times and there was no response. Zeng Cong asked with concern.
"Nothing. Han Feng didn't want to say more about this matter, so he changed the topic: "By the way, did you come to me for something?"
"Hey, hey. Zeng Cong laughed and gently stabbed Han Feng with his elbow: "You are very brave today! I heard that Zhou Jin in Class 1 has been psychologically shadowed by you." โ
"Hey, hey, hey, be reasonable. Han Feng pointed to the bandages on his body: "Now I am beaten all over my body by him." I didn't have a psychological shadow, how did he come to the psychological shadow? Also, can you stop laughing so cheaply in the future? Otherwise, I can't help but beat you. โ
"Hit me?" Zeng Cong looked at Han Feng with ill will: "It's up to you, seeing that you are like a bird now, it's good to be able to go." How's it going? Ready to go home?"
"Okay. Han Feng put his hand on Zeng Cong's shoulder: "Anyway, there is nothing to do, go home." Help me, it's not bad, it's just a little weak. โ
"It's not heavy, I think half your life is gone. Zeng Cong muttered and held Han Feng with his backhand.
"What so much nonsense?" Han Feng thought for a moment, "By the way, we're about to graduate too." What are your plans for graduation after graduation?"
"Me?" Zeng Cong paused: "I don't have the ability to go to any higher magic academy." Maybe, I'll get a job, maybe I'll start a small business. I can't tell you now, but let's take it one step at a time. What are your plans? You should continue your studies, and which college are you going to apply for?"
"Hmm. Han Feng nodded, "I'm going to continue to study magic at the Higher Academy of Magic." However, I haven't decided which college to apply to. Are you going to go into business? It's very hard, and it should be a little more comfortable to work part-time. โ
"It's hard work, it's hard work. Zeng Cong shrugged, "To be honest, I prefer to do business." It's nice to have a part-time job, but it's not happy! It's different if it's a business, and even if it's hard, I'm willing. I don't know much about it, but isn't that what it is like to be a human being? Since it's all the same, why do you force yourself to do something you don't want to do instead of what you want to do?"
Yes, why should I struggle with which choice is the right one? Is it really that important whether it is right or not? In the end, it is just two different paths. Life is not a test, and there is always only one standard answer. The beauty of struggle is that you never know what the future holds. Gain and loss, right and wrong, who can say? In that case, why can't we do what I like? That way, even if I am wrong, I will not have regrets.
"Eh, why didn't you leave all of a sudden?" Zeng Cong turned his head and looked at Han Feng who stopped in confusion. "It can't be a recurrence of the injury, do you want me to help you go to the school doctor's office?"
"It's okay, it's just that something suddenly comes to mind. Solving the confusion in his heart, Han Feng smiled slightly, showing a confident smile. Although this smile is not as exaggerated as laughter, the smile from the heart is as pure as the ice and snow in the depths of winter, and it is very infectious.
"What's the matter? I don't know how to confess my crush?" Zeng Cong suddenly became excited. "I can teach you, don't worry, go up boldly. I reckon that after this competition, you're about to become an idol in the academy. The super genius of the C-level class, how shocking! As long as you confess, you still have a great chance of success. โ
"Can't you think of something serious in your head?" Han Feng glanced at Zeng Cong with disdain, "With your IQ, it's hard for me to communicate with you!"
At sunset, the two slowly walked away while hurting each other.
