July 30.
The first day of Far Moon's summer break was also the night of the Sumida River Fireworks Festival.
Meanwhile, in Far Moon Academy,
At the Tiqie Mansion, the almost once-a-year gathering of Far Moon Board members was taking place.
Tiqie Xianzuowen sat with arms crossed at the head of the table, flanked on either side by two elderly men with similar white hair.
These were the General's deputies, the Majors.
Having gained top Super Chef status through their accumulated years, they had, however, due to age, lost their edge and ambition, making it impossible for them to reach the Qilin Realm in their lifetime.
Further down the line, the board members were increasingly younger.
With one row on the left and one on the right, each with five seats, plus Tiqie Xianzuowen, Far Moon's most mysterious board had a total of eleven members.
