"Yes."
The teachers of Shenzhao University immediately nodded in agreement.
Having followed Nohara Hikofu for so many years, they knew very well what kind of person he was, someone who kept his word and always followed through.
Since he said so...
It definitely meant they could move to the designated location within the limited time!
There was certainly nothing to worry about!
Seeing that the emotions of the teachers in his school were under control, Nohara Hikofu also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
At such a critical moment, he was genuinely worried that his words wouldn’t have an effect on them.
After all...
In the face of disaster, everyone is equal!
How much deterrence he, as a principal, could have was hard to say.
Knowing the urgency of time, Nohara Hikofu didn’t waste any time and immediately began to arrange work: "Mr. Kojima, quickly notify all freshman students to gather at the first teaching building. Mr. Yoshino, go notify all sophomore students to gather at the second teaching building. Mr. Shinkyo and Mr. Kitahara, you are responsible for notifying the junior and senior students to gather at the third and fourth teaching buildings. Mr. Mato, you must contact the emergency bus fleet at the school immediately and have them divide the buses into four groups, respectively..."
Although he was flustered inside, his instructions were orderly, without any signs of panic.
Soon, under Nohara Hikofu’s directives, the teachers of Shenzhao University left the lecture hall one after another to handle their assigned tasks.
In no time, only Nohara Hikofu and the group from Imperial Capital University remained in the lecture hall.
At this moment, Nohara Hikofu looked at Hao Jianhua and said, "Principal Hao, you and your delegation should follow me to the designated location to board the buses first. Given that you have come from afar and now encounter such an incident here, it is my responsibility and duty as the host to ensure your safety."
"Alright."
Hao Jianhua nodded without any hesitation, showing no sign of modesty or politeness.
In the current situation, it was not the time to uphold the traditional virtues of Great Xia.
It was a matter of life and death!
Being able to move to the designated location first was undoubtedly better.
He did not want to give up such an opportunity to others.
The teachers of Imperial Capital University, upon hearing this, also breathed a sigh of relief. Just a moment ago, they were genuinely worried that their principal might refuse.
Seeing this, Nohara Hikofu did not waste any time and immediately got up to lead the way: "In that case, please follow me."
Hao Jianhua and his delegation followed him out of the lecture hall, moving quickly towards the buses.
As they passed through the buildings, whether it was the teaching buildings or the dormitories, they could hear the rumbling sound of mixed footsteps coming from inside.
In the face of disaster...
Even the people of Divine Light Country, who were accustomed to restraint and stoicism, could no longer maintain their usual composure.
"Run quickly, run quickly, strive to catch the first bus!"
"How could it erupt so suddenly?! It’s so outrageous!"
"When I first came to Shenzhao University, I was worried about this, but thinking that nothing had happened for so many years, I put my mind at ease. I never expected it would actually happen!"
"Hey, hey, hey, what’s wrong with you? Why are you pushing me?!"
"Be careful, can you all be more careful?!"
"..."
Shouts rose and fell continuously.
The campus was crowded with people, extremely chaotic.
Fortunately, Hao Jianhua had Nohara Hikofu leading the way.
Nohara Hikofu was quite renowned at Shenzhao University. Even in such a chaotic situation, the students did not dare to approach this cold-faced principal.
Although it was crowded around, the area around Hao Jianhua’s group was quite open.
This also gave Hao Jianhua and his group space to do other things.
Hao Jianhua had been on the phone continuously. He hadn’t stopped making calls during this whole journey.
It wasn’t that he was receiving calls, but he was making them.
Not only on the way, but he had also started making calls as soon as he heard the news about the eruption of Jingli Mountain while still in the lecture hall.
And the person he was calling wasn’t someone else...
It was precisely Lin Beichen, who had headed to Jingli Mountain for a stroll.
"Why can’t I get through this call!"
Hao Jianhua was extremely anxious. From the lecture hall up to now, no matter how many times he called, he would always hear the beeping sound of a connected signal, beeping until the voice prompt said the other person was temporarily unavailable.
At this moment, the teachers of Imperial Capital University looked at Hao Jianhua with grave expressions.
One of the more senior teachers asked worriedly, "Principal, you still can’t get in touch with Lin Beichen?"
"No, I can’t reach him."

Hao Jianhua shook his head helplessly and then looked at the other teachers, asking, "How are the tasks I assigned to you all?"
Upon hearing his question, the other teachers immediately reported back.
"I got in touch with Zhao Tian."
"I also contacted the students I needed to."
"I asked other students, and no one at the hotel saw Lin Beichen. I also checked his room, but he wasn’t there."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Hao Jianhua was filled with mixed emotions.
He was relieved that they managed to contact the other students who came to Divine Light Country for academic exchange with them, indicating their safety could likely be ensured.
As for his worry...
It was naturally about losing contact with Lin Beichen completely!
His fate was unpredictable!
"There’s clearly a signal..."
"But I just can’t get through!"
"What on earth is he doing?!"
Hao Jianhua couldn’t be more frustrated.
