The female anchor turned into the dean of an ancient academy

The next morning, Wen Kuan and his sister, Aqin, arrived at Zhaoyin Academy, ready to embark on a new chapter in his life. When they reached the bluestone memorial archway at the academy's entrance, they were stunned by the sight. Cen Jiexiao, along with Xiaozhi, Yulan, Chen Zigui, and a group of teachers and students, had already been waiting by the screen wall. Cen Jiexiao, dressed in a bright red skirt, looked particularly energetic. A beaming smile spread across her face. As Wen Kuan and his sister approached, she stepped forward and greeted them warmly, "Teacher Wenkuan, Miss Aqin, you're finally here! I've been waiting for you for ages!"

Wen Kuan bowed awkwardly in return and said, "I'm sorry to have kept the dean and everyone waiting. It's my fault."

"No, no," Sister Cen Xiao smiled and waved her hands, her eyes fell on Aqin, and her tone was kind, "Miss Aqin, we meet again."

Ah Qin blushed, lowered her head, and said softly, "Hello, Dean."

"Okay, okay!" Cen Jiexiao smiled and nodded, then turned to Wen Kuan, "Teacher Wen Kuan, I've already arranged accommodations for you. Ah Qin's accommodation is in the women's dormitory area, so please move in later."

"Thank you, Dean." Wen Kuan replied.

"You're welcome," Cen Jiexiao smiled slightly and turned to the teachers and students, "Everyone, Teacher Wenkuan and Miss Aqin have come from afar, so please give them a warm welcome!"

Teachers and students shouted in unison: "Welcome Teacher Wenkuan, welcome Miss Aqin!"

Wenkuan and Aqin were a little overwhelmed by the enthusiastic scene, but their faces were filled with happy smiles.

It turned out that Sister Cen Xiao was afraid that Wen Kuan and his sister did not understand the situation of the academy, so she brought teachers and students from the academy to greet them to show her importance.

Aqin, who was standing aside, had already blushed with shame. She lowered her head and followed her brother closely, at a loss as to what to do.

Just as Sister Cen Xiao was about to take Wen Kuan and Aqin on a tour of the academy, Wen Kuan stopped them and said, "President Cen, wait a minute. I'm officially starting work at the academy today, and I'm delighted that everyone has come to welcome me, a teacher. But it would be wrong to come and welcome me without showing up. Friends behind the wall, friends in the trees, and those hiding in the water tanks, come out."

Wen Kuan's words sent the entire room into an uproar. Cen Jiexiao, Xiaozhi, and Yu Lan exchanged bewilderment; none of them had noticed someone hiding in the shadows. The teachers and students were even more confused, wondering what had happened.

Cen Jiexiao calmed herself down and asked, "Teacher Wenkuan, what's going on? How did you know there was someone in the dark?"

Wen Kuan smiled slightly and pointed at the top of the wall. "Please look, Dean. The bricks and tiles there are slightly darker than elsewhere, clearly showing signs of being trampled on. There's no wind today, and the branches of that tree are swaying slightly and continuously, indicating someone is hiding there as well. As for that water tank, ripples are forming on the surface, clearly someone is holding their breath inside."

Everyone followed Wen Kuan's instructions and saw that it was just as he said.

At this moment, three students in military uniforms jumped out from the high wall, between the branches, and from the water tank. They walked up to Wen Kuan, knelt on one knee, clasped their fists, and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Teacher Wen!"

These three students, each nimble and silent, were clearly promising martial artists. However, at this moment, they all wore a hint of embarrassment, clearly realizing their behavior had been somewhat disrespectful.

Wen Kuan helped them up one by one and said with a hint of doubt, "No need to be so polite, get up. Who are you three..."

Cen Jiexiao looked at the three students and quickly explained, "Teacher Wenkuan, these three are students selected by the Military Science Class to join the Intelligence Department. They will also be your direct subordinates in the future."

Wen Kuan said, "Dean, these three are my students. Not bad, not bad, very talented. What are your names and what are you good at? Tell me." They are Zhang Yong, who excels in Qinggong (light kung fu), Li Qiang, who is proficient in tracking, and Zhao Min, who is an excellent swimmer and can remain submerged for long periods. I've brought these three with me to teach at the academy this time, hoping they can join the Intelligence Department and serve the dean."

"Hello, Teacher Wen. My name is Zhang Buqu. I have good physical endurance and am good at Qinggong."

"Hello, Teacher Wen. My name is Li Renyuan. I'm proficient in tracking, skilled in bows and crossbows, and good at painting."

"Hello, Teacher Wen. My name is Zhao Chengmin. I'm proficient in disguise, understand the foreign language, am good at swimming, and am good at reconnaissance and close-quarters assassination."

After listening to the three students' reports, Wen Kuan looked at Cen Jiexiao.

"As expected of Dean Cen, the academy is able to have so many talented people today, and Dean Cen has made great contributions. Since we have so many outstanding students, Dean Cen can rest assured. I will take care of the Intelligence Department."

Cen Jiexiao was overjoyed when she heard this.

Wen Kuan turned to the three students from the Intelligence Department and said, "Dean, I think these three students are extremely talented. Given time, they will become great. However, they have some erratic personalities, so I need to give them more training to help them improve."

Cen Jiexiao smiled and nodded, saying, "Teacher Wenkuan, rest assured. I, the dean, have given you full authority to be responsible for all matters concerning the Intelligence Department. Dean Chen Zigui will cooperate with you in all your work."

Afterwards, Sister Cen Xiao led a few people into the academy.

Cen Jiexiao and Chen Zigui brought Wen Kuan to a very secret courtyard in the academy, where they saw seven or eight people in groups of two. Some were practicing close combat, some were practicing crossbow archery, and some were holding millstones to practice their arm strength.

"Stop!" Cen Jiexiao interrupted everyone's training with an order and called them together.

More than a dozen members of the "Qiming Group" all bowed in unison to Cen Jiexiao and said in unison, "Greetings, Dean!"

Cen Jiexiao nodded, then turned to Wen Kuan and said with a smile, "Teacher Wen Kuan, this is our academy's intelligence department, and it will also be your future workplace. They are all carefully selected from the academy. I believe that under your training and guidance, they will become true intelligence personnel!"

Wen Kuan looked around and saw that each of these students was full of energy, their eyes filled with desire and fighting spirit. He nodded involuntarily and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Dean, I will definitely train them with all my heart. As long as they don't quit, they will all be elites in the future!"

"Okay! Then I'll trouble Teacher Wenkuan." Cen Jiexiao patted Wenkuan's shoulder with a relieved smile on her face.

Afterwards, more than a dozen members of the "Qiming Group" all bowed to Wen Kuan in unison, "Hello, Teacher Wen, please give us your guidance."

Wen Kuan looked at the young faces and responded, "Seeing you reminds me of the Hawkeye Scout Team I led a few years ago. Okay, classmates, let's start class."

Before the students could react to what was going to be sent.

As soon as Wen Kuan finished speaking, he suddenly made a move, clasping Cen Jiexiao's neck with his left thumb and middle finger, and holding Cen Jiexiao's hands firmly behind her back with his right hand, preventing her from moving.

"Teacher Wen, what are you doing..." Cen Jiexiao was suddenly shocked, her eyes filled with fear and confusion.

"Don't be nervous, Dean. Please forgive my impoliteness." Wen Kuan lowered his voice and said, "This is their first test, a test of loyalty. Without loyalty, all subsequent training is meaningless. Besides, if they can't remain calm in a crisis, how can they survive behind enemy lines?"

"The first test?" Cen Jiexiao was a little confused at first, but after hearing Wen Kuan's explanation, she seemed to understand something and did not continue asking.

Wen Kuan looked at the dozen or so people from the "Qiming Group" and said in a deep voice, "Dean Cen has fallen into my hands. Now, who of you will save her?" After saying that, Wen Kuan deliberately exerted force, and Cen Jiexiao instantly put on an expression of pain. Obviously, this sudden cooperation was also going to cost her life.

More than a dozen members of the "Qiming Group" looked at each other, their eyes filled with tension and anxiety. After all, they had no experience in dealing with such emergencies, and no one dared to step forward, so they just remained in a stalemate.

Chen Zigui, who had seen through the situation from the beginning, could only suppress the urge to laugh and watch this wonderful performance.
