“Ye Wushuang, did you shatter Shang Tianque’s arm?”
Mentor Chu turned to Ye Wushuang and demanded an answer.
Ye Wushuang glanced at Mentor Chu but remained silent.
Mentor Chu spoke again, “I am Chu Jian, an inner court mentor of Qingyun Academy. I am asking you a question. Did you hear me, Ye Wushuang?”
After another look at Chu Jian, Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “It was me, but…”
“Enough!”
Chu Jian immediately waved his hand and declared, “You haven’t even entered Qingyun Academy, and you dare to harm a fellow student right in front of the academy gates. How dare you! We Qingyun Academy will not tolerate such a reckless and arrogant person. Leave now!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang’s eyebrows shot up in surprise.
Shang Tianque, standing nearby, sneered at Ye Wushuang. How dare he shatter his arm? Ye Wushuang deserved to die a hundred times over! If he couldn’t enter Qingyun Academy, Shang Tianque had a thousand ways to make sure Ye Wushuang would never find a proper grave in the capital.
Qing Chengtian hurried forward and said, “Mentor Chu, Shang Tianque was the one who bullied first. You should punish him instead.”
“Are you teaching me how to do my job?”
Chu Jian coldly smiled and warned, “Young man, if you speak another word, I will strip you of your qualification to enter Qingyun Academy as well.”
“How can you, as a mentor of the academy, be so unfair and not distinguish right from wrong?” Qing Chengtian protested. “You haven’t even asked any questions and you’ve already made your decision?”
Chu Jian sneered, “So what? What of it?”
Qing Chengtian wanted to say more, but Ye Wushuang pulled him back. Ye Wushuang looked at Chu Jian with a smile and said, “I’ve long heard that the Chu Clan, Shang Clan, and other powerful families have their way in Qingyun Academy. I didn’t expect it to be true.”
“Since Qingyun Academy doesn’t welcome me, I shall take my leave.”
He had originally participated in the Qingyun Academy examination in Liuyue City to gain a foothold in the capital. But now that he had reunited with Wang Pengyuan, Xu Wenyuan, Lei Chengtian, and others, and was living in the Ye Mansion, this identity was no longer necessary.
“Ye Wushuang!”
At that moment, a voice of surprise rang out from the crowd.
Two figures were seen approaching together from within the academy.
When the disciples of Qingyun Academy saw these two, their expressions changed, and they all bowed respectfully.
One of them appeared old but was full of energy and vigor. It was none other than Elder Tang Chuyi, whom they hadn’t seen for a month.
The other was a man in his thirties or early forties, wearing a green robe, with a gentle demeanor and a smile that made people feel at ease, as if basking in a spring breeze.
Chu Jian quickly bowed to the two men.
“Elder Tang.”
“Dean Li.”
Chu Jian’s eyebrows furrowed in surprise. Today was the day for new students to register, but these two were powerful figures. Why were they here?
However, Tang Chuyi didn’t even glance at Mentor Chu Jian. He walked straight to Ye Wushuang and laughed heartily, “Young man, I’ve been wanting to find you for a few days. You’ve finally arrived.”
“Elder Tang,” Ye Wushuang greeted politely with a smile, “I have some matters to attend to, so I must take my leave.”
“Huh?”
Tang Chuyi was taken aback for a moment, then he said, “Aren’t you here to register today? After the registration, you’re supposed to join the Lingyun Mountain trial. Where do you think you’re going?”
Ye Wushuang glanced at Chu Jian and the others, and said helplessly, “I would like to register, but this Mentor Chu here claims that I injured someone and is too reckless to enter Qingyun Academy. He has stripped me of my qualification!”
What?
Was this true?
Tang Chuyi’s expression changed.
Damn it, Ye Wushuang was definitely supposed to become a student of Qingyun Academy. Whoever dared to stop him would pay the price!
At that moment, Chu Jian hurried forward and said with a bow, “Elder Tang, this fellow had a quarrel with Shang Tianque and directly shattered his arm. Such a ruthless and heartless person, how could he be allowed into our Qingyun Academy?”
