Chapter 46 Don't Surrender, I'll Support You (Middle)

  At this moment, Ye Lou was completely stunned. A Shaper Master? This kid is actually a Shaper Master? No matter how arrogant and domineering he is, he deeply understands the significance of being a Shaper Master. Among the students of the three most famous academies in Fei Li City, it's unlikely to find even one other Shaper Master. And yet, Zhou Weiqing claimed to be an intermediate-level Shaper Master.

  Ye Lou's abilities were not up to par... but his eyesight was still good, he knew that Zhou Weiqing wasn't exaggerating.

  Previously, the condensed paper was suspended in mid-air without being placed on a table... and it was completed with ease without going through any design drafts. An ordinary intermediate condenser may not be able to do so.

  It wasn't easy to catch his breath, and in the midst of those enthusiastic "willing" voices, this little guy quietly slipped away. He knew he had messed up today's task... Going back would be a miserable day. But even so... he had to inform the boss about this matter as soon as possible, otherwise... it would only lead to more dire consequences.

  "Clap, clap, clap..." The applause erupted, and Zhou Weiqing turned around to see... a group of teachers wearing black robes, led by Ye Lou. The one applauding was the leader, a teacher in his fifties. He didn't hide the admiration in his eyes.

  "What's your name?" the teacher asked with a smile... although he was smiling... but Zhou Weiqing felt an inexplicable pressure from him... with his keen senses... he immediately judged that this person would be difficult for him to handle.

  "Teacher, I'm Zhou Weiqing." Zhou Weiqing said honestly, his face which was previously full of vigor and enthusiasm had vanished in an instant, replaced by a silly and honest look that made it impossible for anyone to associate him with the arrogant kid who had heavily injured Ding Chen just moments before. His facial expression changed faster than flipping through a book.

  Zhou Weiqing is very clever... He naturally knows what to do when facing certain people. Confronting the academy teachers... Isn't that just asking for trouble? Not to mention whether he has the ability or not... He still needs to study in this academy in the future... For Shangguan Xue'er and himself, it's also impossible to offend the teachers. Fighting with a student is one thing, but if he acts arrogant towards the teachers as well... That's just courting disaster! Even if he has great abilities, the academy probably won't tolerate that.

  The fifty-year-old teacher smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect this year's commoner freshmen to have so many talents... Intermediate Shaper... Good, you're good, but..."

  He had just said these two words, but saw Zhou Weiqing's face change... becoming extremely sorrowful and indignant, almost using a choked voice to say: "Teacher, you've come at the right time. I was just about to report to the teachers... You must stand up for us weak new students! We new students have just entered school... but encountered the difficulties of senior students... They were just going to beat me up, one against many. And those noble students... said that if I didn't submit to them, there would be no place for me in this academy... making it impossible for me to survive or die. In just a short while, they would have driven me out of the academy. For self-defense... I accidentally hit a senior student, I was wrong on this point, but... if I hadn't taken action, perhaps the one lying on the ground now would be me. Teacher, I only want to study in the academy, contribute my own strength for the glory of the academy... our Imperial Academy is still under the control of the teachers... you must protect us weak commoner new students! Otherwise, which commoner student will dare to join our Imperial Academy in the future?"

  Zhou Weiqing's words were spoken with a voice choked with sobs... Of course, there were no real tears... He was just constantly wiping his eyes with his sleeve... Who could tell if he was really crying?

  What is called two-faced and three-bladed? What is called turning over a new leaf? Zhou Weiqing performed a magnificent display of his skills in front of many students.

  At least hundreds of people around witnessed the whole process, but even they couldn't associate the arrogant guy from before with this "weak" civilian student who was now crying like a weak little lamb. It's not easy to change one's face in an instant and call a deer a horse like that. Isn't it necessary for someone's skin to be thick enough to say such things?

  Shangguan Bing'er's face turned red, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at Zhou Weiqing... It was just that she had a kind heart... so she wouldn't say something like "I don't know this guy".

  The students around were stunned... and almost simultaneously produced four words in their minds: Is this okay?

  Unfortunately, the students knew... but the teachers didn't necessarily know. All they saw was Zhou Weiqing creating a Condensing Scroll... and his bold words to the new commoner students: "I'll take care of you, no one will bully us." To be honest... most of the teachers were from commoner backgrounds, only the higher-ups in the academy were mostly nobles. Adding to that, Zhou Weiqing's incredible talent in creating Condensing Scrolls and Ye Lou's past reputation, for a time, these teachers believed about 80% of what Zhou Weiqing said.

  Wu Wei Qing's previous words were not just spoken casually... His words were very severe, not only did he accuse the noble students and senior students of their "evil deeds", but also actively admitted his mistakes... The attitude was still so sincere. When teachers teach students, they often say... making mistakes is not terrible, knowing wrongs can be corrected, actively admitting mistakes is a student. Wu Wei Qing's current performance, isn't he just a student who knows how to correct his mistakes? Moreover, in the eyes of the teachers... he was even more justified in self-defense. Finally, he even requested the academy to protect himself as a weak person.

  The most crucial thing is that Zhou Weiqing didn't entirely lie, previously Ye Lou did indeed provoke him and asked someone to beat him up, if he wasn't extremely powerful, he would have been the one getting beaten. Therefore... the most brilliant part of his words was that no one could refute them. Having followed Mu En in Tian Bow Camp for two years, it wasn't a waste after all. Compared to more than two years ago, Zhou Xioabai has matured a lot now... using Mu En's words, this kid has transformed from an ordinary rascal into a high-level rascal.

  Listening to Zhou Weiqing's words... the first teacher, who was about fifty years old, suddenly sank his face... his gaze shot out from the surrounding students' faces... especially on those high-grade civilian students who had just come out with Ding Chen.

  "The problem is very serious! The noble students' oppression of commoner students has reached such an extent. Not even the new students who have just entered the academy are spared. Do you still have the awareness of being seniors? You few, immediately go back and reflect, each person submit a deep self-criticism. Then stand in the middle of the academy's courtyard and be punished... Without my permission... You must not leave."

  Those ordinary students who came out with Ding Chen were so stifled in their hearts! But they didn't dare to refute the teacher's words, and one by one they walked away dejectedly.

  The middle-aged teacher said in a low voice: "This wind cannot be long... It seems that the college will have to carry out a rectification movement. Otherwise, who will be willing to come to our college to study in the future? Everyone go back to their original positions, this matter will be handled by the college after the opening ceremony."

  The middle-aged man's serious look... made many students, especially those familiar with him in the higher grades, one by one become silent and return to their seats without daring to make a sound.

  When Zhou Weiqing was about to leave... he was stopped by him, and unlike the previous severity, at this time, a smile flowed out on the face of this calm and composed teacher... He took a few steps forward... patted Zhou Weiqing's shoulder, saying: "Young people must have courage, they cannot be discouraged because of temporary setbacks. They must be more courageous in the face of adversity. Don't worry, I will remember your matter... This is the Fairy Royal Military Academy, not anyone's backyard. The academy will protect the safety of every student. However, fighting is not allowed in the academy, and you must bear the medical expenses of that student who was accidentally injured by you earlier."

  This remark from the teacher almost made everyone's eyes fall out, what? Heartbroken and discouraged, yet still dare to be more courageous? This violent guy who almost kicked a senior master to death with one kick still dares to be more courageous? And... how did this become an accidental injury? That was nearly a crippling serious injury... Is it just going to be settled with some compensation for medical expenses? Not even a punishment, and yet this shameless guy Zhou Weiqing is acting like he's the one who suffered greatly. For a moment, the faces of the surrounding students all turned strange.

  Zhou Wei Qing, however, looked like he was about to cry with gratitude... "Thank you, teacher... your handling of this matter is truly too fair. The responsibilities that I should bear... I will definitely take on all of them. Ding Chen was also manipulated by others, the mistake doesn't lie with him, let me pay for the medical expenses and living expenses instead. Teacher, may I ask for your name? After coming to the academy, only after seeing you today did I feel like a student here... it feels like going home.

  That middle-aged teacher heard Zhou Weiqing's words... the smile on his face involuntarily expanded a few points... smiled and nodded to him. "My name is Xiao Shuai, I am the Dean of Studies at the Academy. If you encounter any grievances in the future, feel free to come find me, my office is on the third floor west side of the main teaching building."

  "Thank you, Teacher Xiao. With a fair and just teacher like you to protect me, I can finally study in peace at the academy. From now on, I will definitely strive for excellence and become an outstanding student."

  Xiao Zhan smiled and said, "Alright, go back to your seat. The opening ceremony is about to begin." Zhou Weiqing didn't say a single word of flattery... but every sentence subtly praised him... Such an excellent and well-behaved student... which teacher wouldn't like?

  Another new day, Beijing still hasn't snowed... really depressing. Everyone's monthly votes are also very supportive. Give me some motivation. At the same time, don't forget to vote for recommendations too. Asking for double votes.
