Chapter 897: The Master Teacher Academy's Shock (1)
Translator: StarveCleric Editor: Millman97
After sending Hong Lin flying, School Head Jiang put away his zither and scanned the crowd from the stage above with a gaze that sent shivers down one's spine . "Is there anyone else who doubts my teacher's capability? I am more than willing to entertain you with a fight!"
The crowd fell completely silent . Those who had harbored such thoughts previously had been hushed by School Head Jiang's menacing words .
Against a member of the Ten Great Master Teachers, a 7-star demonic tunist at that, how could any of them possibly fight him?
Seeing that there was no response from the crowd, School Head Jiang turned his gaze back to Pavilion Master Xue Cangyun and smirked . "Pavilion Master Xue, don't you still have other students? I don't mind facing them all at once!"
Feeling School Head Jiang's gaze falling on them, Pavilion Master Xue Cangyun's students hurriedly cowered away and lowered their gazes, not daring to meet the other party's eyes .
Given that even the strongest of them, Hong Lin, had been defeated in a single blow, who else would dare face School Head Jiang in a duel?
Sighing deeply, Pavilion Master Xue Cangyun clasped his fist and declared, "Our Baituo Empire Master Teacher Pavilion has no objections to Zhang shi becoming the principal of the Master Teacher Academy!"
Even he wasn't a match for School Head Jiang, needless to say, his students .
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had managed to overcome this ordeal as well, Zhao Bingxu heaved a sigh of relief . "Of the five representatives of the regional Master Teacher Pavilions, three have already recognized Principal Zhang . Vice Pavilion Master Bai of Chiyao Empire and Pavilion Master Mo of Hongyuan Empire, what about you?"
As the inauguration ceremony had been organized in a rush, only four representatives from the Master Teacher Pavilions of the nearby empires had managed to make it in time . Counting in the Hongyuan Empire Master Teacher Pavilion as well, there were a total of five representatives in total .
"Our Chiyao Empire Master Teacher Pavilion has no objections!" Given that the three heads of the other Master Teacher Pavilion were no match for Zhang Xuan, Vice Pavilion Master Bai, as a mere vice head, was less likely to be a match . Thus, he hurriedly stood up and clasped his fist .
"Our Hongyuan Empire Master Teacher Pavilion has always supported Zhang shi as the next principal!" Mo Gaoyuan stood up and clasped his fist as well .
He had witnessed how Zhang shi had risen step by step in Hongyuan City, and he was also the first ones to agree to the latter's succession as the next principal of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy . Naturally, he wouldn't voice any objections during the inauguration ceremony either .
"Good . Since there are no objections, we shall proceed on to the next formality!" Zhao Bingxu nodded .
The greatest obstacle the succeeding principal would face in the Question Symposium was mainly the representatives from the other Master Teacher Pavilions . Since even the representatives had no objections to the matter, Principal Zhang could be considered to have overcome this formality safely .
At this moment, however, a huge group of students consisting of several hundred people suddenly stood up together, and a representative among them said, "School Head Zhao, we have a question that we would like to ask Principal Zhang!"
The representative was the student who had killed the most spirit beasts in the battle against the Cloudmist Ridge earlier .
Grade-4 student, Zhu Chenqing!
His family had been killed by the spirit beasts of the Cloudmist Ridge, so he harbored great hostility toward them . From the moment he enrolled into the Master Teacher Academy, he had already vowed to eradicate those scourges who had brought great suffering to mankind .
However, it was a pity that, due to several considerations, the Master Teacher Academy had never made a move against the Cloudmist Ridge . At the same time, his influence as a single student was limited, so there was nothing he could do about the matter either .
He had thought that the beast stampede this time around could change the Master Teacher Academy's nonchalant attitude toward the Cloudmist Ridge, forcing them to steel their resolve and eradicate the Cloudmist Ridge once and for all . However, he had never expected that the succeeding principal would actually propose a negotiation with the Cloudmist Ridge… and even come to an agreement with them at that!
It wasn't hard to imagine how furious he had been when he heard the news .
Thus, he rallied all of these students to rise with him for a single reason—to demand an explanation!
In truth, he had managed to rally tens of thousands of people to stand up together with him before the inauguration ceremony, but many of them were from the Xuanxuan Faction . After seeing that the new principal was their faction leader, they changed their mind and decided not to participate, thus resulting in the number of protesters falling to a mere few hundred .
"Speak!" Zhao Bingxu frowned in displeasure, but he gestured for Zhu Chenqing to continue .
"I wish to ask Principal Zhang, when will the Master Teacher Academy clash with the beasts of the Cloudmist Ridge once more!" Zhu Chenqing said .
Demanding the principal to reveal the results of the negotiation was extremely disrespectful, and it could be viewed as challenging the authority of the principal . As such, Zhu Chenqing chose to frame the question in another manner that would be slightly less insolent .
"Finally, someone dropped the bomb!"
"It seems like we aren't the only ones concerned about the matter regarding the Cloudmist Ridge . It seems like the students also want an explanation as well!"
"Let's see how the new principal answers that question!"
…
Hearing Zhu Chenqing's question, Zhu Yi and the others glanced at one another and nodded in agreement .
As emperors of Tier-1 Empires in the region, it didn't really matter to them who became the emperor… What was more important to them was whether or not the new principal had the ability to protect them!
Considering what they had heard about the Cloudmist Ridge, it was inevitable that they would doubt the succeeding principal's capability .
If the other party couldn't even deal with mere beasts, could they really expect him to stand up for their empires in times of crisis?
"Clash with the beasts of the Cloudmist Ridge?"
Zhang Xuan and Zhao Bingxu traded glances upon hearing the question, and they couldn't help but chuckle softly . The latter shook his head, stepped forward, and replied, "There's no need to battle anymore . The problem regarding the Cloudmist Ridge has been thoroughly resolved . No more will we have to worry about facing beast stampedes from them anymore!"
"Thoroughly resolved?" Zhu Chenqing and the other students looked at one another and frowned .
What did those words mean?
No more would they have to worry… Was the other party talking about the promises made by the kings of the Cloudmist Ridge?
But how could the words of the enemy be accepted so simply? That was taking this matter far too lightly!
If this matter could be resolved that easily, the Master Teacher Academy wouldn't have been so helpless before this matter despite the emergence of numerous outstanding principals in history .
"Pardon me, but since School Head Zhao is so certain of this matter, we would like to know what kind of terms the Master Teacher Academy promised the Cloudmist Ridge that could resolve the problem of beast stampedes once and for all!" Gritting his teeth, Zhu Chenqing dove straight into the main point .
"Principal Zhang, allow me…"
Noticing the nuances behind Zhu Chenqing's words, Zhao Bingxu took a look at Zhang Xuan and nodded . However, at that instant, an elder abruptly flew in hurriedly from the perimeter of the training grounds .
