Peerless Martial Expert in the City-Chapter 216 - 215 Beichen Feng
He had thought that this step, the workload, would be fairly hefty, and he had already prepared himself for a grueling criminal investigation battle. However, when he took action, he found that things were much easier than he had imagined.
At the same time, he truly regretted his previous leniency towards the Four Young Evil Masters. Just as the teacher had said, he also hadn’t expected that Gao Junjie and the Four Young Evil Masters, all under twenty, still youths, could be so damn impressive!!!
To describe their actions ’as too numerous to record’ wouldn’t be an overstatement at all; even lengthy lists wouldn’t suffice to describe their behavior!
Things he had never even considered were completely recorded in Gao Junjie’s notebook!
He also had the common sense not to use a computer, a very risky tool, but instead used a notebook and added layers of locks to it!
Unfortunately, the person he was facing was Xiao Yi, who easily took care of his obsolete locks with minimal effort, opening them directly!
Thus, in just one night, his gains had far surpassed his expectations...
So, on the vice principal’s desk at school, and on the internet, there appeared a piece of content that made everyone who saw it involuntarily feel a surge of anger and a rush of passion!
Boom!
The teacher’s words, like another heavenly thunderclap, struck the foreheads of Gao Junjie and the Four Young Evil Masters, their faces already turning ashen.
News?
Exposure?
All four were completely dumbfounded. How could this be possible?
Could it be...
Gao Junjie’s face turned deathly pale as he considered a possibility. His heart seemed to be frozen by the coldest north wind of December, his whole body chilled to the bone.
"Thud thud..."
Almost reflexively, Gao Junjie turned sharply and dashed towards the corridor, forgetting even to signal to his three companions.
"Young Master Gao..."
"Wait for us!"
"..." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
The three had no idea what had gotten into Gao Junjie. After a moment of stunned silence, they quickly reacted, shouting after him while hurriedly following in his footsteps.
The teacher seemed completely oblivious to the reactions of the students inside the classroom, nor did he notice the departure and shouting of Gao Junjie and his group outside. He swept his gaze across the students with a trace of coldness, speaking in a tone completely different from his teaching style, chillingly saying, "Here, there’s something I want to say to all of you, and I hope you remember it well. No matter who you are, what kind of background you have, the moment you step into Z University and receive your Z University student ID, you are nothing more than a student of Z University, that’s all! If you think you can play around with privileges and flaunt your background here, you’d better consider whether you’re truly qualified!"
"As students of Z University, the only thing you should do is be proud to study at Z University. Then, with that pride, you should earnestly strive to learn here and extract even a little bit more of what could support you in the future, such as knowledge, connections, the ability to think, the ability to learn. I will not tell you that Z University will take pride in you, because even without you, Z University has always been proud and will continue to be so!"
When he said that last sentence, the teacher, who usually looked average, of medium height, never ran over the allotted time, was never late or left early, rarely engaging in idle talk, and seemed nothing special in his lectures—except that a few students thought he was particularly attentive—suddenly radiated a staggering aura. He seemed like a sword long shrouded in dust that had suddenly shaken off its heavy coat, revealing a sharp and fierce gleam.
That ordinary face seemed to shine with brilliance at that instant, and his not-so-tall figure, in the eyes of the students, seemed to suddenly become as unattainable as Mount Tai.
In this moment, every student felt a sense of dread, felt an oppressive atmosphere, and even those sitting at the front felt like breathing had become difficult.
At this moment, every word he said seemed to be imprinted on the bodies and minds of all the students in the classroom, echoing in their ears and hearts incessantly.
Z University was truly extraordinary!
Xiao Yi was not overwhelmed by the teacher’s aura, but the shock in his heart was no less intense than any other student in the classroom, perhaps even more so!
This teacher, whose class Xiao Yi had attended many times, always seemed nothing out of the ordinary. Yet this very average-looking man in his forties turned out to be a powerhouse at the Bone Refining Peak!
But what shook him even more was not the strength the teacher had always concealed, but the sheer charisma he exuded at that moment!
Pride!
Yes, it was pride!
It was a kind of pride that stemmed from the heart and from the bones!
Looking at his eyes, which had always been ordinary, unremarkable, and even somewhat dull, Xiao Yi seemed to understand in an instant why he had always behaved so low-key and so ordinary!
Because he disdained!
Yes, he disdained these so-called top students of Z University, who were perhaps revered and admired by countless people outside, he simply didn’t care about them at all!
If it hadn’t been for today’s incident involving Gao Junjie and the others that clearly infuriated him, or rather, touched on some of his principles, he probably wouldn’t have looked them in the eyes at all today. He would have just quietly continued with his lecture, not exchanging even a word of superfluous conversation with them!
Without you, Z University has always been proud and will continue to be proud!
His disdain was aimed at everyone in the classroom, including Xiao Yi himself. However, this was the first time that being disdained didn’t make him uncomfortable; on the contrary, he felt a faint but deep respect for this teacher!
Xiao Yi’s life wasn’t very long yet; not even twenty years could be considered long. Yet, he had truly seen quite a few proud people.
Of course, this did not include people like Young Master Liu, who should still be looking into his background, or Gao Junjie, the leader of the Four Young Evil Masters, Jin Xiaohan, and Li Ziming, etc. In Xiao Yi’s eyes, rather than pride, their attitude could be better described as idiocy. To use the word "pride" to describe them was an insult to the word!
The proud people he referred to were like the teacher before him, truly proud people. Like the old man, like Elder An, Divine Doctor An, who spent his entire life and all his energy on the practice and research of traditional Chinese medicine out of sheer commitment!
......
And this teacher was undoubtedly the proudest person he had ever seen!
Although he did not yet know why he was proud or what he was proud of.
A long time ago, the old man once told him seriously that any truly proud person is worthy of respect.
At that time, he did not understand, he was puzzled. Isn’t pride always considered a negative emotion that people think is bad? Don’t books always say that you must never be prideful?
But as he grew up, he gradually understood.
True pride is not about scoring a hundred on an exam and being praised by the teacher as the smartest person, then getting cocky, forsaking learning, and becoming an idiot, a complete fool. True pride is when you simply disdain their praise. Why should he praise me? Why should I care about what he says? I am the greatest, I am now, I will be in the future, and I will always be!
There are not many truly proud people in this world!
Zhao Yuhua obviously didn’t know this teacher before, and she knew very little about him. Her face, for the first time, showed a hint of shock. The icy layer that usually covered her face as if it were frost seemed to shatter completely for the first time. Her eyes expressed an inexplicable shock. It was unclear whether she was shocked by the Bone Tempering High Tier strength displayed by the teacher or, like Xiao Yi, shocked by his pride.
The teacher, who was lecturing, did not pay heed to their astonishment, contemplation, respect, or fervent emotions. After saying those words, he picked up his teaching plan, held his head high, and with a steady and rhythmic pace, walked out of the classroom as he had done every time class ended before.
Beichen Feng!
Watching the straight figure walking out of the classroom with firm and rhythmic steps, Xiao Yi finally remembered the teacher’s name in his mind.
It was a very rare name, especially the surname Beichen, which was very uncommon.
When he first saw the schedule, Xiao Yi was slightly startled and curious about the name. Later, when he saw the teacher’s plain performance in class, he gradually forgot about it.
In fact, among those lecturing teachers, excluding a few distinctive ones like the English teacher Zhao Hong, he almost completely forgot the names of the other teachers, nor did he ever intend to learn them.
Because he might not be as proud as Beichen Feng, but deep in his bones, he was a proud person too!
Beichen Feng, Beichen Feng!
Xiao Yi silently repeated the name twice before slowly standing up, packing up his things, and preparing to leave the classroom. He no longer intended to attend the rest of the day’s classes.
