282 Criticism

“Wang Qiaochu! Wang Yuanqiao!” the principal of Yanjing Hunter University shouted coldly.

“Apologize to the people of Zhejiang Hunter University!”

“Wang Qiaochu’s expression turned incredulous, and he pointed his right index finger at himself. “Me? Apologize to them?”

“Cut the crap!” The principal of Yanjing Hunter University raised his voice.

At this moment, Wang Yuanqiao was stomping on Wang Qiaochu’s feet frantically, his eyes signaling to him. Wang Qiaochu was surprised and confused.

Seeing this, Chen Yuan suddenly laughed silently.

“Old Chu, you don’t have to protect your student like this, do you?”

Before the principal of Yanjing Hunter University could say anything, Chen Yuan waved his hand and said, “Forget it. I’ve already taught him a lesson on behalf of my students. It doesn’t matter if he apologizes or not.”

After a pause, Chen Yuan said to Lu Benwei, “For this kind of person, even if he apologizes, it’s against his will. There’s no need to be conflicted.”

“I heard that Wang Qiaochu and Li Tiancheng are a couple. You can just teach him a lesson when the time comes. Let’s go.”

Then, he led Lu Benwei and the others out of the room.

After Lu Benwei and the others left, Wang Qiaochu let out a long breath. “Lu Benwei, you motherf*cker, just you wait. In two days, I’ll make you beg for death.”

“Shut up!” the principal of Yanjing Hunter University shouted coldly.

“Wang Qiaochu, I’ve already done my best to protect you. If you’re still looking for death, please go ahead!”

Then, the principal of Yanjing Hunter University left the room.

Wang Qiaochu watched the principal leave with a sinister look in his eyes.

“Old thing, why are you still not dead?”

“Shut up! The principal just protected you,” Wang Yuanqiao said coldly.

“Him? Protecting me by asking me to apologize?” Wang Qiaochu smiled noncommittally.

Wang Yuanqiao rolled his eyes at Wang Qiaochu. “Of course! Kidnapping is a serious crime in the Dragon Kingdom! I really don’t know what’s going on in your head, to even do such a thing.”

Wang Qiaochu’s face and neck reddened as he said, “It’s because of that Lu Benwei who beat me up on the street last time. And that sister of his, Lu Ziling. I’ll settle this score with the two of them sooner or later!”

Wang Yuanqiao’s face turned even gloomier as Wang Qiaochu spoke.

“Enough, you’re still thinking of causing trouble with Lu Ziling. This time, the principal helped you. If you attack Lu Ziling, I’ll see who will still dare to speak up for you. Things are different now. The family isn’t something you can rely on to do evil.”

With that, Wang Yuanqiao flicked his sleeves and left Wang Qiaochu’s room. As he watched Wang Yuanqiao leave, a malicious light flashed across Wang Qiaochu’s eyes.

“Lu Benwei, Chen Yuan, just you wait. This isn’t over!”

Suddenly, Wang Qiaochu’s eyes darted around.

“Aren’t you the top student at Zhejiang Hunter University? I’ll let you know that it’s not easy to be the top student. I’m going to make you lose all your reputation!”

…

The next day, the tournament went on as usual.

Lu Ziling exploded with terrifying strength and easily defeated Fan Peng, advancing to the top eight.

After that, they drew lots for the top eight. As Li Tiancheng said, Lu Benwei’s next opponent was indeed Li Tiancheng’s team.

When Lin Feng found out about this, he was indignant and threatened to report Wang Qiaochu’s unusual dealings with the tournament organizing committee. He was so excited that even Lu Benwei and Chu Yan could not stop him.

Lin Feng, calm down. Do you have any concrete evidence?” Chen Yuan came in time.

Lin Feng immediately became listless and shook his head. “No, I didn’t.”

“If you don’t, then something like yesterday will happen, you know?”

Lin Feng nodded his head vigorously and then asked, “Then, Principal, what should we do now?”

“Then tell me, are you afraid of Li Tiancheng? Are you afraid of Wang Qiaochu?”

“I’m not afraid. I can’t wait to teach Wang Qiaochu a lesson.” Lu Benwei denied it.

“Isn’t this just what you want? You can teach him a good lesson in the match the day after tomorrow,” said Chen Yuan, “You must win the top eight!”

“Understood!” everyone responded in unison.

…

However, on the same night, a shocking piece of news broke out on the Dragon Kingdom’s internet.

“Big news! The relationship between Lu Benwei and Chen Yuan, the principal of Zhejiang Hunter University, isn’t to be seen.”

Once the news was released, it immediately ignited the entire internet.

It turned out that according to the so-called messenger of justice of Zhejiang Hunter University, Lu Benwei was Chen Yuan’s illegitimate son. To make Lu Benwei famous, he deliberately bribed the tournament committee and arranged for a civil war between Zhejiang Hunter University and Jiangsu Hunter University.

In the end, Zhou Qingfeng, the number one genius of Zhejiang Hunter University, was threatened by the principal, Chen Yuan, and lost the tournament.

For a moment, the people of the Dragon Kingdom were filled with righteous indignation and stood up for Zhou Qingfeng.

“I was wondering, it’s already ridiculous for a first-year magician to appear in the National Class Tournament. So, it turns out that there’s a conspiracy behind this.”

“Don’t say anymore. Zhou Qingfeng is the unlucky one. He’s the world’s number one hidden class, and he lost to the main world.”

“I can’t do this. We must get justice for Zhou Qingfeng. Otherwise, we’ll be the ones being sabotaged the next time.”

…

That night, there was a huge commotion on the Internet. The account of Zhejiang Hunter University was filled with unsightly comments.

“Chen Yuan, get off the stage and give Zhou Qingfeng an explanation.”

“Lu Benwei, withdraw from the competition and return Zhou Qingfeng a spot in the top eight.”

The commotion on the Internet immediately attracted the attention of the tournament committee. Due to the pressure, they had no choice but to start an investigation.

On the other hand, Chen Yuan was also being investigated by the higher-ups.

“Principal Chen Yuan, I have a few questions for you. I hope you can answer them truthfully,” the formally dressed investigator asked politely.

“Is it true that you made a deal with Lu Benwei?”

Chen Yuan nodded lazily and stretched. “It’s true.”

All the higher-ups who were watching the investigation were dumbfounded.

“What exactly did you guys trade?” the investigator asked.

“Ah, yes, yes, yes. To make Lu Benwei famous, I threatened Zhou Qingfeng and bribed Li Tiancheng to lose to Lu Benwei in the tournament. I’ve also talked to the other favorites and told them to meet Lu Benwei. I’ll make them lose to him.”

Hearing this, everyone sucked in a cold breath.

The investigator could not believe it. How is that possible? Li Tiancheng aside, the rest of the people are all very powerful. They have countless resources supporting them. How could they give up the tournament for some resources?”

“Yeah, how’s that possible?” Chen Yuan rolled his eyes at the investigator. “Even your pig brain knows that it’s impossible. How could I do it? Am I God?”
