Guan Yue asked again, "Since each of you is extracting Peak Fire Essence, what tools are you using for the extraction? Please make sure to tell everyone, as this will be very helpful for future situations. I believe everyone would like to know, right?"
"Yes, we need to know," the crowd responded in unison, their voices echoing. All the students were eager to obtain Peak Fire Essence.
"Well, we used a battalion-level weapon to extract Peak Fire Essence," Wang Renwei said as he took out his prized possession. Indeed, they had relied on this weapon to extract Peak Fire Essence.
"What about the others? If they are all extracting Peak Fire Essence, then they should also have battalion-level weapons, right? Let's have them show their battalion-level weapons to everyone," Guan Yue shouted loudly, a hint of a smile appearing on his face. Teacher He inwardly cursed; Guan Yue was being cunning, and Wang Renwei might not be able to handle him.
The surrounding audience urged them to present their battalion-level weapons. They simply did not believe that Wang Renwei and his eleven companions all possessed battalion-level weapons; the scales of reason began to tip in favor of Guan Yue.
Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi's followers hesitated and said, "We don't have battalion-level weapons; all our sharp tools melted into Peak Fire Essence."
"Is that so?" Guan Yue became excited and asked Wang Renwei, "Do you know what Peak Fire King looks like?" This simple question left Wang Renwei dumbfounded.
"You keep claiming that you discovered Peak Fire King first; are you just making it up? You don't even know what Peak Fire King looks like, yet you can find it? Teacher He, did you hear that? If you haven't accepted any benefits from them, then your head must be filled with water. If you can't understand such an obvious truth, how can someone like this still be our teacher?"
A silence fell over the area; the observing students were shocked that Guan Yue was so bold as to directly point fingers at Teacher He, completely disregarding any subtlety! He truly wasn't afraid of trouble!
Teacher He immediately exploded in anger: "You brat, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Guan Yue retorted sharply: "I'm sorry, Teacher He. Forgive me if I misheard. Earlier when I was asked to hand over all my points and publicly apologize, it turns out it wasn't you speaking but a dog barking."
Everyone was astonished; it turned out that Guan Yue was not someone to be trifled with. He was fearless and audacious enough to insult a teacher!
Just as Wang Renwei and the others were left speechless and Teacher He was filled with rage and sorrow, Ruo Yi's voice came through: "Guan Yue, don't be arrogant. I know what Peak Fire King looks like; I was the one who discovered Peak Fire King."
The crowd quickly parted to let Ruo Yi move forward. Ruo Yi surprisingly stood beside Ouyang Shaohua, looking at him with curiosity. His Piggy Face tightened again as he frowned in disbelief. He couldn't understand how Ouyang Shaohua ended up next to Guan Yue. In his eyes, Ouyang Shaohua held a status akin to that of a master since he had always regarded Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian as his master.
Guan Yue smiled, his still youthful face full of mischief: "You've finally come to the rescue. Now please come up on stage so everyone can see your ugly face."
Teacher He let out a heavy sigh and called out to Guan Yue, "Guan Yue, stop showing off your eloquence here. Now that Ruo Yi is here, do you have any questions left? You can't deceive the public with your nonsense!"
"Guan Yue, stop shouting. Otherwise, you'll make a fool of yourself," Guan Yue coldly replied to Teacher He, then turned to Ruo Yi and said, "Ruo Yi, you said you discovered the Peak Fire King. So tell me, where exactly did you find the Peak Fire King? The books are very clear on this, so please be careful not to make a mistake."
Ruo Yi was momentarily stunned. "Of course, I found it inside the Peak Fire Essence."
Guan Yue smiled again, and at that moment, Ouyang Shaohua felt that Guan Yue's smile was quite sinister.
"I asked you where exactly in the Peak Fire Essence you saw the Peak Fire King. Everyone knows that there are detailed records in the academy library," Guan Yue deliberately added some words to satisfy the audience's vanity, prompting them to cheer, "That's right! We all know; you can't just make things up."
This really put Ruo Yi in a difficult position because it was obvious that the Peak Fire King was inside the Peak Fire Essence! However, he had no idea what the academy's books said about it!
Moreover, he truly didn't know how the Peak Fire King appeared.
Cold sweat began to form on his face.
This made Teacher He anxious, so he shouted loudly, "Guan Yue, don't confuse right and wrong. Regardless of anything else, it's wrong for you to steal someone else's Peak Fire King."
Guan Yue immediately shouted back, "Did everyone hear that? Is this really our Teacher He speaking? Are we even having a conversation here? We are trying to investigate who stole whose belongings together with everyone, yet there's one voice barking madly, accusing me of stealing from others. This is an insult to everyone's intelligence and completely disregards your existence. It's clear who is confusing right and wrong!"
"Exactly! Teacher He is a jerk!"
"Teacher He is unreasonable."
"He's not even human."
Many voices began to echo Guan Yue's sentiments, though they were hesitant and unclear; they didn't dare directly offend the teacher.
"Don't you know? Let me tell you: you have to keep stirring the Peak Fire Essence to see the Peak Fire King. Remember this, everyone! The next time you encounter Peak Fire Essence, make sure to stir it repeatedly. I spent several darts stirring the Peak Fire Essence before I could bring out the Peak Fire King. This is my personal experience. Don't forget it."
Ouyang Shaohua watched as the still small figure of Guan Yue spoke confidently and manipulated Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi effortlessly. She couldn't help but reassess him; Guan Yue had become a true man in her eyes once again!
Ruo Yi looked utterly dejected, not daring to glance at Guan Yue. However, Guan Yue turned to Teacher He and said, "Our esteemed Teacher He, I assume you must have given Ruo Yi and Wang Renwei some advice, right? Now I ask you, since you claim I stole their Peak Fire King, you must know how to wrap it up again, right?"
Guan Yue directly threw this question at Teacher He, leaving him speechless. His face turned pale, but he couldn't find any words to respond. All he could do was feel a mix of anger and frustration inside because he had never considered this question and didn't know the answer.
Guan Yue continued, "Everyone knows that the Peak Fire King has an extremely high temperature. If Teacher He believes I stole something from Wang Renwei and the others, then surely Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi must have a way to package the Peak Fire King. May I ask you, Teacher He, what method they were planning to use?"
This time it was Teacher He who turned pale; he truly didn't know how to safely package the Peak Fire King. The Peak Fire King was not something that young students could handle; packaging it required advanced treasures—at least royal-grade artifacts.
"Teacher He, are you so clever that you don't know the answer to this question? Then let me ask you, on what basis do you say I stole Wang Renwei's Peak Fire King? And how can you claim that the Peak Fire King belongs to them? They don't even know what the Peak Fire King is or how to discover it, let alone how to package it. Teacher He, are you deaf? Are you blind? Are you even human? Is your conscience still intact? I don't know if 'talking nonsense with open eyes' describes you. Or perhaps you're just blinded by greed. Everyone present understands the underlying transactions here, right?"
Sima Xiaosa watched Guan Yue at the table, listening to every word he said and feeling very pleased inside. Guan Yue was truly impressive; he vented all his pent-up frustration in one go, making Sima Xiaosa feel admiration for him for the first time. Indeed, from today onward, he would admire Guan Yue.
What Teacher He? Nonsense!
The scales of reason tipped in favor of Guan Yue in the minds of many students present. Guan Yue's words exposed Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi's greed completely under the glaring light of day.
Guan Yue looked at Teacher He with anger in his eyes and smiled, "Teacher He, I know you'll retaliate against me, but I want to tell everyone that justice lies in people's hearts. Who is right and who is wrong can be clearly seen as long as there is no bias. I'm not afraid of your retaliation because I will always hold the truth."
The crowd erupted into boos; however, the tone expressed a friendly sentiment. Guan Yue had already conquered everyone with his evident reasoning, including Ouyang Shaohua and Sima Xiaosa!
Guan Yue's arguments forced Wang Renwei, Ruo Yi, and even Teacher He into a corner; everyone present looked at them with mockery and disdain. Some fearless students even began to heckle.
Wang Renwei and his companions wore expressions filled with anger and humiliation but were unable to confront Guan Yue directly with reason.
Because Guan Yue's words were too sharp and well-founded; they simply couldn't compete with him.
Thus, Wang Renwei could only curse loudly, "What kind of nonsense is this? Just spouting rubbish! If you've got guts, let's settle this in the Arena."
Guan Yue immediately replied, "I've been wanting to deal with you for a long time; let's meet in the Arena during the mid-term assessment. But today's matter should be addressed first; don't try to fool everyone present."
"Let's see who wins when we face off on stage; whoever loses admits defeat," Ruo Yi shouted as well, giving himself an out before pushing through the crowd with his dozen or so brothers and quickly fleeing. He knew their plan had completely failed this time.
Teacher He also turned around with an angry expression and walked away.
Guan Yue shouted at their backs, "You bunch of frauds, trying to deceive us is completely out of the question. You have no chance, not even a sliver of one. Your pathetic performance only proves that you are the true despicable ones. We do not wish to associate with you. Our Qilin Academy does not need you. Get out of the academy."
"Get out of the academy!" A wave of voices rose up, as many were convinced by Guan Yue's words. The facts had already shown that Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi were envious of Guan Yue and his team's points, so they attempted to seize their victory in a frenzied and brazen provocation. They even invited a teacher to come along, which was truly outrageous.
As everyone passionately denounced Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi's group, the most excited among them was Ouyang Shaohua, whose face had turned slightly red. This fourteen-year-old girl, on the verge of womanhood, looked at Guan Yue before her and unexpectedly felt a hint of admiration for him. Indeed, Ouyang Shaohua found herself somewhat in awe of Guan Yue. There was something within his small stature that moved her. Although she couldn't fully grasp it yet, the seed of admiration had already been planted.
Sima Xiaosa kept waving Guan Yue's hand and jumping around in excitement; he was incredibly thrilled and felt immensely proud of their complete victory today.
Guan Yue himself had not anticipated that Wang Renwei, Ruo Yi, and Teacher He would be so easily defeated. Their eyes were only on points and benefits, completely devoid of any sense of morality! Such scum needed to be dealt with through force to truly resolve the issue.
Guan Yue turned back to Ouyang Shaohua, who was still standing beside him, and said, "Senior Sister, thank you for your trust!"
Ouyang Shaohua's face flushed slightly as she became a bit flustered. "No need for that. What are you saying? I trust that you wouldn't do anything bad."
Guan Yue replied earnestly, "I, Guan Yue, would never stoop to those underhanded tactics or engage in any deceitful acts." As he spoke, he tiptoed closer to Ouyang Shaohua's ear and whispered softly, "You really understand me, Senior Sister."
Guan Yue's gentle whisper made Ouyang Shaohua's heart race. She unexpectedly felt a strange sensation within her. This little guy really knew how to charm people.
Ouyang Shaohua looked at Guan Yue with a dreamy gaze. He truly was a captivating young man!
