Guan Yue was pondering how to deal with the situation at hand, ignoring Teacher He's calls. He knew that Teacher He might act first and kill him to silence him, so he needed to send word back to the academy. He looked around and suddenly saw Huangfu Jiayin standing in the distance, looking at him with a conflicted expression. Guan Yue smiled at her, signaling her to come over. Huangfu Jiayin hesitated but slowly approached, her eyes fixed on Guan Yue, eager to hear what he had to say. 0
 
Guan Yue noticed that Teacher He was watching him out of the corner of his eye, so he suddenly called out loudly, "You need to go tell Vice Dean Tai Shi Xiao Xiao that I've returned to the academy and have been captured by Teacher He. Tell her to come save me immediately. Teacher He is likely planning to kill me." 0
 
Guan Yue deliberately looked in another direction, making Teacher He confusedly search for the person Guan Yue had entrusted with the message, while he quietly urged Huangfu Jiayin, "Hurry up, please." 0
 
Huangfu Jiayin was not foolish; she understood what Guan Yue wanted her to do. She thought it made sense—delivering a message to the vice dean would not get her expelled—so she turned and ran off. She felt indebted to Guan Yue and saw this as an opportunity to repay him. 0
 
At that moment, Yin Jingjing also heard Guan Yue's instructions to Huangfu Jiayin but did not react or report it to Teacher He. Over the past year, she had realized that when Guan Yue changed her body color, it was merely a change in color without any poison involved; her cultivation had not been affected at all. Thus, her suspicions about Guan Yue were fading. However, she still blamed all the humiliation she suffered at Teacher He's hands over the past year on Guan Yue. This ongoing resentment made her think only of avenging herself in the Arena, where she could vent her endless frustration and humiliation. 0
 
Teacher He noticed Huangfu Jiayin leaving but recalled that the Huangfu Sisters had indeed severed ties with Guan Yue according to his information. Therefore, he continued searching for others hiding nearby. Knowing how cunning Guan Yue was, he suspected there must be a backup plan in place. Teacher He remained highly vigilant and cautious regarding Guan Yue; this kid was just too clever. 0
 
Subsequently, Teacher He moved Guan Yue and Sima Xiaosa to a very secluded location and locked them up while notifying Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian. He knew that Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had been troubled ever since his defeat by Guan Yue and thought that having Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian confront Guan Yue might help alleviate his frustration. 0
 
In Teacher He's mind, he considered that since everyone knew he had captured Guan Yue, he couldn't simply eliminate him outright. However, if Guan Yue were to get into a conflict with someone else, the consequences would be uncontrollable. Moreover, he could frame him with a crime afterward that would leave him unable to defend himself—then everything would be over. 0
 
The place where Teacher He imprisoned Guan Yue was somewhere Guan Yue had been before; it was very secluded and not far from where He Bi and Jiang Tianlan's Inner Courtyard disciples usually practiced. Suddenly, a shadow of Xiahou Xiong flashed through Guan Yue's mind—was this place provided by Xiahou Xiong? After all, it wasn't within the Academy Guard Team's territory. 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had suffered greatly from his match against Guan Yue in the Arena; both his spirit and internal organs had sustained significant damage. Therefore, during the half-year assessment, he found himself unable to fight again. He could only watch as Yin Jingjing, Ouyang Shaohua, and Helian Jiaolan took the top three spots in the Tiger Lion Ranking while he seethed with anger at being overshadowed! Of course, the root cause of his frustration was none other than Guan Yue! 0
 
Over the past year, he had nearly recovered and successfully broken through to a high-quality realm, becoming the highest cultivator among the new students. With his exceptionally strong cultivation talent, he once again proved himself irreplaceable! 0
 
 
The second grade Midterm Assessment is about to take place, and he wants everyone to know that I, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian, am the true strong one, the undisputed first among the newcomers. 0
 
Last time I faced Guan Yue, I lost in terms of Mental Strength. This is my Humiliation, so for a year I have been diligently training my Mental Strength. If I encounter Guan Yue again, I must make him lose to my Mental Strength and avenge my previous shame! When I received the message from Teacher He that they had captured Guan Yue, I was overjoyed. Who would have thought that Guan Yue would end up like this! 0
 
So, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian brought his followers, including Ruo Yi, to the place where Guan Yue was held. Sure enough, at the entrance, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian saw Xiahou Xiong. The two shook hands tightly, both smiling. As the Wise Star, Xiahou Xiong said to Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian: "This is a great opportunity; we must make sure that Guan Yue stays silent. Moreover, we must cripple his abilities. We cannot leave any future troubles; otherwise, it will be very dangerous." 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian nodded proudly and confidently replied: "Leave it to me; you can rest assured. I came here to settle the score with him." 0
 
At this moment, Guan Yue felt an extreme sense of danger. Based on his understanding of Teacher He, he knew that Teacher He would definitely take action against him first without considering the face of the Grand Historian Vice Dean. He might cripple his martial arts permanently and then frame him with a false charge to cover it up. Then, the Grand Historian Vice Dean would have no evidence to seek revenge for him. It was very likely that Teacher He was already arranging for people right now. 0
 
Guan Yue realized he had been too impulsive; his rashness resulted in not being able to save Huangfu Qingkong, and now he had put himself in danger as well. Moreover, he had also dragged his kind-hearted roommates like Sima Xiaosa into trouble. Fortunately, Sima Xiaosa, Lei Dazhuang, and Marco were not locked up with him; perhaps he still had a chance of survival. 0
 
Without a good plan, he must not act impulsively. This was a lesson learned through blood; isn't it too late to realize now? 0
 
What should he do? Guan Yue's mind raced as he searched for a strategy. He knew that waiting for the arrival of the Grand Historian Vice Dean was extremely unlikely. He could only rely on himself! 0
 
When he overheard the conversation between Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian and Xiahou Xiong outside, his anger towards Xiahou Xiong ran deep into his bones. That scoundrel! If I can survive this, I will make you wish you were dead! 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian and Xiahou Xiong spoke loudly without fear of being overheard by Guan Yue, believing that he was already doomed and not worth worrying about anymore. Now it was their world; finding this place was also part of Xiahou Xiong's plan. This Wise Star indeed had schemes! 0
 
With a chuckle, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian stepped into the room. Behind him, besides Ruo Yi and other boys, there was also someone familiar to Guan Yue, a girl from the same dormitory as Ouyang Shaohua. Seeing that Guan Yue was bound with ropes used by the guard team, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was very pleased: "Haha, Guan Yue, if I had known it would come to this, why did we bother in the first place? Opposing me always brings retribution. Now what do you say? Will you admit your mistakes? Bow down to me? Beg for mercy? No, I won't give you that chance. I will cripple you and destroy your Dantian, making your life worse than death. How about that? Am I merciful? I'll spare your life but render you unable to speak, see, or hear—you will be a living corpse. I want you to accompany me as I reach the pinnacle of being a Disciple, leading me toward my glorious life. At that time, I will use you as a sacrifice; your blood will be my finest offering." 0
 
Feeling the flickering red light on Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian's forehead, which indicated he had broken through to another realm, Guan Yue realized this guy indeed had talent for cultivation. However, his tyranny and unjust behavior made him unreasonable and self-righteous. If he were to achieve great power, many would surely suffer misfortune. 0
 
 
Guan Yue coldly laughed and said, "It was your Teacher He who sent you here, wasn't it? Xiahou Xiong gave you this idea, right? To deal with a mere ten-year-old child like me, you really have gone to great lengths. However, today may not be your moment of triumph; I will make sure you feel regret." 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian laughed again, feeling very pleased. Seeing Guan Yue bound so helplessly in front of him made him feel liberated from his previous frustrations. All past grievances had faded away; now was the time for him to utterly defeat Guan Yue, and he was particularly happy that his subordinates were watching. 0
 
At this moment, Ruo Yi stepped forward to speak: "Aren't you so impressive? Didn't you endure One Hundred Times Gravity? Didn't you set up an Illusory Array that summoned a spirit? Aren't you about to head to the Inner Courtyard? Yet today, you are still tied to the Pillar of Shame. You are destined to be a fleeting clown; you don't deserve to stand alongside Xuanyuan because you are just a lowly commoner. Your days of showing off are over. Now it's time for us to deal with you. From now on, it will be the era of our Xuanyuan's resurgence." 0
 
Ruo Yi's tone was filled with mocking pride. He truly felt that Guan Yue's nightmare for him had finally ended; Guan Yue had become a thing of the past. Following Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian would also bring him glory. Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had broken through to become a Disciple of the Attainment Realm, a level only achievable by the top two in the Tiger Lion Ranking, Yin Jingjing and Ouyang Shaohua. This made Ruo Yi admire Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian even more, and he firmly believed that Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian would reclaim the top spot in the Tiger Lion Ranking and look down upon the world once again. Ruo Yi's piggy face resembled a blooming flower at that moment, blossoming solely for Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian, though it was not beautiful and even somewhat repulsive. 0
 
Hearing Ruo Yi's praise, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was very satisfied. He nodded at Ruo Yi and gave him a thumbs-up as a reward before turning to Guan Yue and saying, "Do you have anything else to say? From today onward, you will no longer have the chance to speak. Your eyes will no longer see anything, and your ears will no longer hear any sounds—how tragic. Go ahead and say what you want now; however, don’t expect me to spare you—I definitely won’t let you off." 0
