"Indeed, that is the last ditch plan for the worst-case scenario." Teacher Song smiled weakly, "We have to prepare for the worst. After all, we aren't confident that we will win this ti."
Jin Rou could hear and feel the despair and helplessness this teacher and the academy was feeling. But still, they acted normal and even held an everyday enrollnt for new students. Perhaps, if the prediction really happened, the first to be evacuated were the newly accepted students.
But Jin Rou couldn't stand still with this. Though the academy was powerful, the enemy was stronger. Who knew what plans the enemy had in their store?
"So, what is the academy's plan during the storm?" Jin Rou asked. He wanted to know what was in their arsenal to counter this situation as much as possible.
Teacher Song could see that Jin Rou wasn't a bad person. Thus, he answered with all honesty, "We will try to fend off the enemies and hold the fort as much as possible. We will also activate many defensive treasures and formations all around the academy to hold them for a while. And we will gather all the students to evacuate as many as we can."
"So your plan is all put into defense." Jin Rou comnted, "How about the offense plan?"
"If so of the graduate students co, then they'll be our offense. We are short on teachers and not everyone is battle-ready cultivators." Teacher Song said.
Jin Rou contemplated. This plan was definitely feasible. In fact, it was comndable. After all, they were focusing on defense which was natural and normal since they were the one being attacked right in their turf.
Though the defensive plan was feasible, it didn't guarantee that it would work. After all, they were facing peak existences in this upcoming fight. Who knew how long their defenses would last? Take note, immortal progenitors and top-level true gods would be present!
"That's going to be tough." Jin Rou shook his head, "Unless your top alumni make their appearance, the survival chance of the academy is almost zero."
"Indeed. But we have prepared for this for a long ti now." Teacher Song smiled, "Be it death or life, we will never concede!"
"Admirable." Jin Rou praised and said, "I was thinking about asking for a compensation for your student but since you are in a tight situation, I will just ask sothing."
"Please ask away." Teacher Song said.
"Do you know where would be the next coordinates of the Templar Clan?" Jin Rou asked.
"The Templar Clan?" The teacher was surprised when he heard the question and wanted to ask what did the clan have to do with him. But, he just answered, "If I will start with the calculation from their past 1,000 records of coordinates, I might be able to guess the next location they would be in 36 hours."
"You are able to do that?" Jin Rou's eyes glowed.
"Well, yes. I have mastered the Coordinates Calculus way back when I was younger and I'm teaching my students that. Though it will be tough job to trace coordinates of the Templar Clan, it's possible. Just give 24 hours of calculation and I'll reach a conclusion." Teacher Song smiled and answered.
Jin Rou was overjoyed. To think that a person who was capable of tracing coordinates could be found here in the academy. Wasn't it a good thing? His struggle would end at last. Now, since the teacher would be busy for a while, he was thinking of ways to give assistance to the school.
"Don't worry about anything else, Teacher." Jin Rou smiled and said, "Just focus on tracing them and I'll be taking care of the rest."
"Alright, Daoist Friend. I'll see you after a day, then." Teacher Song cupped his fists and excused himself to imdiately start the work and leaving the enrollnt matters to his assistant.

"That young man, he is very powerful, Song." The old woman that Teacher Song usually with, appeared out of nowhere after the teacher excusing himself from Jin Rou, "His strength is very unfathomable. Even I can't see through him."
"I know." Teacher Song said, "That's why I'm doing my best to let him stay for a while. He will be a great help to us during the storm."
"But you only gave yourself a day before eting him. That's very short." The old woman said, "After you give him the coordinates, he will leave for sure. After all, he doesn't need your help anymore and your karmic ties with him have been severed."
"While it's true that it's very short. It's enough." Teacher Song smiled and looked at the old woman.
"What do you an..." The old woman was about to say sothing when she was suddenly struck with realization, "Do you an that the enemy is coming in 24 hours?"
"According to my calculations, yes." The teacher gravely said, "I just finished the calculations of the academy's fate yesterday night and found about it. The attack would be in 24 hours."
"Then this is a matter to be reported imdiately!" The old woman panicked, but imdiately relaxed after thinking sothing, "Or have you already reported this?"
"Of course, who do you think I am?" Teacher Song smirked, "Thus, keeping that young man here for 24 hours is the only thing I can do. Whether he helps or not, it depends on him."
"So it turned out that you have already planned everything from the start, even before your student and that man fought." The old woman laughed, "You sly old fox. You never changed, you're still adept in sches."
"You can't call this a sche, after all I just rely made him wait for a day. And just like I said, it's up to him whether he will help us or not." The teacher sighed and said, "But hopefully he will. Since we don't know if the alumni will co and save our academy."
