“Mr. Dean, I can be the witness. They had a fair duel!”
Once again, the door opened as Hu Ziyan jumped out and snarled, he could not suppress his anger any longer.
Fang Xiaozhong also followed him, and yelled: “I can also be the witness!”
Jin Buyi gave a cold sneer and said: “You two are accomplices. I still haven’t considered your crimes! What makes you two qualified to be his witnesses?”
Xu Ting walked over angrily and yelled: "Mr. Dean, there was no such thing as a duel. Apparently, Qin Wushuang harbored a grudge towards Zhang Xian and deliberately took revenge on him!”
While he was speaking, there was another wave of noise outside. Zhang Xian"s father, Zhang Maorui, also known as the patriarch of the Prominent Cla.s.s Zhang family, had rushed over with a large group of Zhang family members.
“Where is the murderer who killed my son?”
Qin Wushuang stared at Zhang Maorui coldly. He wanted to see how this show would play out.
"Kid, get out here. I am going to have a duel with you and avenge my little brother!"
Behind Zhang Maorui, a twenty-ish young man roared. He was Zhang Xian"s big brother, Zhang Yao. Among the younger generation, he was one of the most powerful young men at Stage Seven of the Power Force.
"Mr. Dean, we have clear evidence. Give the order, and we will take them!" Xu Ting yelled.
Jin Buyi nodded: “Yes. Qin Wushuang, you have no witnesses to prove that it was a fair duel between you guys. Then, without a doubt, it had to have been a personal vendetta! Come, let"s take them!"
Like swords, Qin Wushuang’s eyes pierced through these people coldly. Those martial art students who had falsified the evidence all felt a cold s.h.i.+ver run down their spines when Qin Wushuang’s eyes flashed across them.
Suddenly, Qin Wushuang laughed and exaggeratedly clapped his hands: “Good, good, good! No one in River County has the courage to speak the truth. I, Qin Wushuang have gained an important understanding!"
Jin Buyi called out: “Stop with the nonsense, take him!”
“Hold up!”
Just as they were about to take him, a carefree voice came from behind.
A martial art boy, dressed in blue, lightly walked over. He glanced at Xu Ting and gave a cold sneer: "Xu Ting, is this how you act as an officiator? You dared to falsify evidence at such crucial moment! Do you think that in River County, you guys can do whatever you want?"
“Da Xi Yang?”
“Why is he here?”
"This is becoming fascinating. Someone from the Venerable Da Xi family actually came out."
"That"s right. From his tone, he seems to be on bad terms with Xu Ting."
In the surrounding area, the discussion never stopped. Before this blue-clothed martial art student, Da Xi Yang, no one dared to talk too loud. Jin Buyi smiled ingratiatingly at him: "Da Xi Yang, do you have something to say?”
Da Xi Yang’s face was not happy; he said with a cold tone: "I am simply worried that other people will laugh at our River County for not having a single decent person! Mr. Dean, I shall be his witness. Qin Wushuang and Zhang Xian did indeed have a fair duel, and Xu Ting was the officiator. These words of mine are all the the evidence you need. Whoever wants to dispute this, you can come forward and take it up with me!"
Jin Buyi was shocked when he heard these words. He was left speechless for a while.
To the side, Zhang Xian"s father and older brother were also shocked by Da Xi Yang’s words. The child of the Venerable Da Xi family was defending the child of the Humble Qin family?
Why did this sound like a story from a storyteller?
One must know that the Venerable Da Xi family was the only Venerable family in the entire River County. They were the only upper-cla.s.s aristocrats. In River County, they held a supreme status that was higher than the feudal authorities!
And yet, Da Xi Yang was defending this child of the Qin family!
It was not Jin Buyi and his people"s fault that they found it hard to believe, all the other martial art students were also dumbfounded.
Jin Buyi’s throat became dry. He forcibly swallowed some saliva and said: “Da Xi Yang, is…this really what you saw?"
“Yes, Young Master Da Xi. This matter is related to my son"s death; please speak with justice." Although Zhang Maorui was the patriarch of a Prominent Cla.s.s family, he did not dare to act with impudence before the child of the ancient Da Xi family. Thus, he spoke with an almost begging tone.
Da Xi Yang laughed grimly. He did not say anything as he walked through the crowd.
Just when his figure was about to disappear, he suddenly stopped and spoke in a clear voice: "When have you ever seen the people from the Da Xi family not keep their promises?"
In River County, the Da Xi family had absolute power. They rarely got involved with other matters.
However, once they spoke, their words were like a spit of saliva because they never took back their words.
Hu Ziyan yelled: "Mr. Dean, you heard it, right? Young Master Da Xi has already said that they had a fair duel!"
“Yes, how should we deal with those martial art students that forged evidence. Please say something, Mr. Dean.” Fang Xiaozhong also followed up.
It seems that the one sentence from Da Xi Yang had given them endless courage. They appeared to have received a supernatural power.
Those martial art students who feared trouble had already scattered away. Xu Ting"s face swelled like the liver of a pig. He stared at Qin Wushuang angrily, as if flames were spewing from his eyes.
“Humph!” Although Jin Buyi had been shocked by Da Xi Yang’s actions and had momentarily lost his balance, he did not panic and said: "This matter still needs careful investigation. However, Qin Wushuang has repeatedly caused trouble. Even if it was a fair duel, he is at fault for breaking the harmony of the academy. I have warned you earlier…"
“You want to kick me out, right?” As if he had already predicted the answer, Qin Wushuang asked him leisurely.
"You think I don"t have the power?" Jin Buyi straightened his chest and flaunted a dean"s att.i.tude. He could not apprehend him, but since Zhang Xian"s father and brother were here, he had to seek redress on their behalf.
"I know that you have the power. An idiot like you that uses the chicken’s feathers as arrows only has limited abilities. You think that I want to stay at the Martial arts Academy?" Qin Wushuang laughed mockingly and continued to speak: "I only stayed here for a few more months because I wanted to wait for an opportunity for Zhang Xian, that idiot, to come looking for his death!"
Jin Buyi was so furious that his whole body shook. He pointed his finger at Qin Wushuang: “You…You!”
"What ‘you’? I am not going to stay at the academy anymore! From now on, I have no business with the academy! A man with a kind heart, hehe. Jin Buyi, I am sure a silver plated and gilded face would not be as thick as yours.”
After he had finished, he s.n.a.t.c.hed the academy’s insignia from his chest and threw it toward Jin Buyi with disdain. Then, he left.
“Humph, we are leaving, too!”
"No more staying!"
Apparently, both Hu Ziyan and Fang Xiaozhong had been bullied a lot in the academy. They also took down the insignia from their chest and threw it to the ground. At the same time, they also spat on it, and then left with Qin Wushuang.
Originally, Jin Buyi had wanted to threaten and suppress these martial art students after expelling Qin Wushuang. However, he did not think that this method would no longer be an option as Qin Wushuang did not seem care. Even the usually cowardly Fang Xiaozhong had raised his temper at him!
Had the world changed, or was it because I grew old?
With Qin Wushuang’s current capabilities, he was not interested with the little Martial Arts Academy. Plus, he had already killed Zhang Xian and had concluded this matter for his body’s predecessor. Why would he still want to stay here?
Killing Zhang Xian was just something along his journey to reestablis.h.i.+ng the pride of the Qin family. It was also to save some face for them. However, Qin Wushuang’s real intentions were to send a warning to the many evil powerhouses.
“Qin Wushuang, I am looking forward to seeing how you will pa.s.s the martial arts exam in three and half years if you leave!"
Jin Buyi flew into a rage and no longer cared about maintaining his grace as a dean.
Qin Wushuang casually turned around and spoke slowly: “Jin Buyi, there has to be a limit to bragging, ok? The Zhen Wu Holy Place a.s.signs people to be in charge of the Martial Arts Student Exam. You think that I don"t understand this? As for you, to put it in a nicer way, you are the dean a.s.signed by the feudal authority. To put it bluntly, you are just a lackey for the aristocrats. Can you influence the Martial Arts Student Exam? What makes you qualified to change it?"
With a cold sneer, he glanced at Zhang Maorui who was standing to the side: "You had to lower your head before a small patriarch of the Prominent Cla.s.s. You have shamed all of your family"s ancestors!"
Right now, Zhang Maorui could no longer hold his anger and yelled: "Qin Wushuang, you killed my son. You think you are you going to be able to walk away from that this easily?"
"It was a fair duel and our lives were in the hands of G.o.ds! Is Patriarch Zhang going to kill me on the streets? Should I pick up two stones for you to find the courage?"
Although Qin Wushuang spoke these words, he was not scared of this Zhang Maorui if he had to fight.
Zhang Maorui was stunned. He did not have the courage to kill a martial arts student in broad daylight. Bai Yue Country had strict rules. He could abuse the loopholes in the laws, but he was not strong enough to simply ignore the entirety of it.
The group of people stared at each other and could not find words to say.
At this critical moment, Xu Ting stood up and cursed: “Qin Wushuang, just stay proud. I want to see just how long your Humble Cla.s.s Qin family can stay proud!”
Qin Wushuang stared at Xu Ting; eyes gazing at him deeply as if he wanted to see through him.
When Xu Ting received Qin Wushuang’s gaze, he felt that his clothing had been stripped away. He felt as if countless needles were p.r.i.c.king his skin and it made him feel very uncomfortable. His heart faltered and cold sweat emerged from his back.
However, he was the child from the Wealthy Cla.s.s Xu family. Although he was inwardly panicking, he still forced himself not to show it in his expression.
Suddenly, Qin Wushuang smiled mysteriously: "Xu Ting, you are scared. Ha ha ha.”
After that, he left with ease. Only when Qin Wushuang’s figure had disappeared behind the gate, did Xu Ting feel a wave relief and comfort coming back to his whole body.
“Everyone, everything that happened today was because someone wanted my family’s foundation. Only mountains never meet, we will meet again in three years!”
Qin Wushuang’s voice penetrated each person’s eardrum like a sharp sword from afar. As if shocked by electricity, they all stood there motionlessly.
If the Qin family wanted to rise, they must attack with a powerful force!
If someone climbed over your head to abuse you, what do you do to him? You use your fist!
The Qin family had wise words from their ancestors—
Whoever seeks to steal from the Qin family, we shall repay them five times more.
Whoever seeks to harm the status of Qin family, we shall repay them ten times more.
Whoever seeks to destroy the Qin family, we will destroy them with everything we have, regardless of the cost!
Right now, with the Wealthy Cla.s.s Xu family as the lead, these powerhouses wanted to destroy the heart of the Qin Family. Of course, we will use all of our strength!
