Chapter 28 The Flood Washed Away the Dragon King Temple
Du Weiren had finally managed to steal a moment of leisure from his busy schedule. He was sitting in his temporary office, drinking tea and leisurely playing with his prayer beads, when suddenly he heard a deafening burst of laughter that pierced through the ceiling from the first floor and reached his office.
The soundproofing of teaching buildings is generally not very good, in case of an accident involving a student or a serious incident, the college's higher-ups can take swift action to nip the chaos in the bud.
Du Weilin never expected that when he rushed over, he would see Zhou Yi, the top performer and the king of recruits, inexplicably and furiously trying to kill a freshman!
He expressed his incomprehension! He felt that if the students had the ability, they would definitely want to tear her to pieces, so it was incomprehensible that this old hag was behaving so erratically. However, just in case the situation escalated, he immediately took action.
"Zhou Yi, what's wrong with you?"
The infamous Teacher Zhou, whose reputation was so widespread that it could be described as notorious, finally regained her senses under the pressure of a Soul Douluo powerhouse. However, her eyes remained fixed on Huo Yuhao like knives, and there was no doubt that she would try to kill Huo Yuhao again if given the chance.
But it is obvious that Zhou Yi's most important task now is to explain her situation to Du Weilun.
"Director Du! This student disobeyed his teachers and spoke arrogantly; he is far from being a good person! His moral character is extremely problematic! I must expel him immediately!"
Du Weilun looked at Zhou Yi with astonishment. How could you say such a thing? You're a Soul Emperor, while the students are at most Soul Venerables. No matter how arrogant he is, he can't possibly insult your parents, can he? How could you judge his character on the first day of class? Are you not even going to put on an act anymore?
"This classroom isn't your personal fiefdom! Zhou Yi! Shouldn't we stipulate that students shouldn't only listen to your opinions? If you dare to be so insolent again, I'll risk offending your partner to petition Dean Yan to suspend you!"
"You! What did I do wrong? This kid almost attacked me! And I can't even fire him? Is there any justice in this world?!"
Du Weiren was at his wits' end listening to Zhou Yi start throwing a tantrum. He looked at Huo Yuhao, his eyes clearly demanding that the person in question explain himself.
Huo Yuhao immediately understood, bowed slightly to Du Weilun, and then said, "Director Du, my name is Huo Yuhao. On the first day of school, Teacher Zhou demanded that the whole class run 100 laps around the square because we hadn't fought. If we didn't finish, we would all be expelled. Wang Dong and I weren't punished because we had a fight before, but I don't agree with Teacher Zhou's teaching methods."
"So I confronted him directly with my question, but Mr. Zhou seemed unwilling to answer me. He even made some rude remarks and asked me to rephrase my question. I was furious, so I said some provocative things. After that, Mr. Zhou became enraged and insulted my mother. He even tried to hit me without any regard for the consequences."
"Fortunately, my martial soul is mental type, and my second soul skill helped cover up and prevent Teacher Zhou from succeeding. As for the red mark on her head, it was from when she hit me but missed and bumped into the door frame. From beginning to end, apart from some provocative words, I did not fight with Teacher Zhou at all. I believe that my classmates can all testify for me."
At this moment, Wang Dong led the way, followed by a large group of students from Class One, who all nodded in agreement with Huo Yuhao, angrily saying, "That's exactly right! Zhou Yi is going to fire us all!"
"If it weren't for Huo Yuhao standing up for us, we would all be expelled today!"
"Not fighting is considered a mistake?! Is there no law anymore? Is this how Shrek's teachers educate their students?"
"Waaaaah! I want to go home! I can't stay here anymore!"
Du Weiren was now perfectly clear about the facts. Could Huo Yuhao really have bribed the entire class on the spot? He knew Zhou Yi's character all too well; as the saying goes, "He who walks by the river will eventually get wet." Today, Zhou Yi had met her match, and what happened? She lost her temper, made the first move, and hadn't even caught anyone yet.
This is so embarrassing! It's not Zhou Yi who's embarrassed; it's Shrek Academy that's being humiliated!
At this moment, Zhou Yi's pretty face, now stripped of its mask, was contorted with rage by the students' words, making her look no less grotesque than the human skin mask she used to disguise herself.
She etched the faces of the students who had spoken out against her into her mind with a burning hatred, vowing to expel them!
To her disappointment, Du Weilun had already set his sights on a teacher in his thirties or forties with an ordinary appearance. He said somewhat helplessly, "Teacher Wang, I remember you haven't taken charge of a class yet. Why don't you temporarily fill in? Zhou Yi is no longer suitable to take charge of a class."
The middle-aged man nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll take care of it."
Zhou Yi's face immediately changed upon hearing this. She screamed like a madwoman, "You can't dismiss me! Du Weilun, you don't have that authority!"
Du Weilen glanced at her coldly, snorted, and said, "How long are you going to embarrass yourself here? You've completely disgraced Shrek Academy! If you dare to be insolent again, I'll take you to see the Dean immediately!"
Upon hearing the word "dean," Zhou Yi's attitude softened instantly. She fell silent, lowered her head, and bit her lower lip, seemingly lost in thought.
When the students in Class One saw that Director Du was going to change their teacher, they immediately jumped for joy, shouting, "Director Du is wise! Long live Director Du!"
Du Weilen sighed softly and transmitted his voice to Zhou Yi through his soul power, "Look at what you've done! Do you think any student would speak up for you? How many times have I told you! You can't just expel students arbitrarily! You always rely on Fan Yu to back you up and do whatever you want. Even if you're not punished this time, which freshman class do you think you can still teach? Openly trying to hit a student in the corridor, which class of kids would cooperate with your teaching? Think about it carefully!"
Just then, Huo Yuhao quietly walked to the middle-aged man who had replaced Zhou Yi and said respectfully, "Teacher Wang, I would like to ask for leave this afternoon. I need to go to the Soul Guidance Department to see my teacher."
The middle-aged man was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected that the key figure in this incident would come to him for leave so soon after he took over the class, and to go to the Soul Guidance Department? He asked curiously, "Going to the Soul Guidance Department to see a teacher? Have you become an apprentice?"
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, then uttered the name that struck Zhou Yi like a thunderbolt, "Dean Xian Lin'er of the Soul Guidance Department is my teacher. I just became her disciple a few days ago. These past few days have been..."
Zhou Yi couldn't listen to anything more. Huo Yuhao couldn't possibly be trying to trick her by using the dean of the Soul Guidance Department. Such things would be clear with a little verification. She was finished; her suspension was a done deal.
As for Du Weilun and the others, they were slightly taken aback. Only then did they realize where Huo Yuhao got the confidence to talk back to Zhou Yi. It turned out that he had a powerful backer, who happened to be Zhou Yi's husband's boss.
Huo Yuhao probably doesn't realize that he's really messed things up this time, accidentally taking care of the people from the Soul Guidance Department as well.
Du Weiren's expression was particularly strange at this moment, but he knew in his heart that Fan Yu would not be able to ask him for help this time. Huo Yuhao would have to complain to him in a moment, so he should ask his boss for help first.
