Chapter 203: Chapter 6 Cunning as a Demon
“Are you Lin Feng?” Elder Zhao Wuming of the Task Hall looked at Lin Feng with a chilling gaze in his eyes.
However, he did not attack again.
This Zhao Wuming possessed the Cultivation of the Martial General Realm, First Layer Heaven, with the Power of One Dragon!
Yet, he had just been repelled by Lin Feng!
Zhao Wuming knew then that Lin Feng’s strength absolutely surpassed his own.
Lin Feng nodded and said, “What? Do you still want to try my methods?”
“You…” Zhao Wuming’s eyes flashed with a cold light.
For someone like Zhao Wuming, Lin Feng would not show any respect.
Respect is mutual, and since Zhao Wuming was deeply involved with the Blood Dragon Association and had just tried to trap him, why should Lin Feng give Zhao Wuming any respect?
“What has happened here?”
At that moment, a commanding voice was heard.
Then, an Elder dressed in a white robe with a burly figure walked out from the Task Hall.
“Elder Wenren Canglan from the Task Hall!”
A student exclaimed, clearly recognizing the identity of this elderly figure.
The Great Elder of the Task Hall, undoubtedly a high-ranking figure in the Azure Dragon Academy.
“Elder!” Zhao Wuming hurriedly paid his respects to Wenren Canglan.
“Disciples pay respects to the Great Elder!” Many students also paid their respects to Wenren Canglan.
“Mm, dispense with the formalities.”
Wenren Canglan nodded, he looked around and slightly furrowed his brow.
“Zhao Wuming, what has happened here?” Wenren Canglan asked.
“Reporting to the Great Elder, it is Lin Feng here who, relying on his superior cultivation, spoke rudely and severely injured another. Please look, Great Elder, these students are all injured by Lin Feng.”
Zhao Wuming accused Lin Feng before anyone else could.
“Hush hush…” Many students around started to boo Zhao Wuming.
Clearly, there was no need for Lin Feng to explain anything.
These students had already explained everything for him.
“Are you Lin Feng?” Wenren Canglan asked.
“Your disciple is,” Lin Feng bowed respectfully.
Wenren Canglan nodded and said, “Do you have anything to say?”
Lin Feng replied, “Justice resides in the hearts of people, my heart can reflect the bright moon.”
“Good, good! ‘Justice resides in the hearts of people, my heart can reflect the bright moon.'”
Wenren Canglan’s aged eyes suddenly brightened, he turned to Zhao Wuming, his expression turned cold, and he said coldly, “Zhao Wuming, do you really think I am senile?”
Zhao Wuming was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a thud, constantly kowtowing, “Great Elder, Wuming admits his guilt, Wuming will not dare anymore, please, Great Elder, show mercy.”
Wenren Canglan sneered, “Our Task Hall has extremely strict requirements for the conduct of elders, your conduct is improper, pack your things, and leave the Azure Dragon Academy.”
“Good, Great Elder truly is wise”!!
Many students clapped and cheered.
“You, come with me.” Wenren Canglan looked at Lin Feng.
“Yes.” Lin Feng nodded and followed the Great Elder into the Task Hall.
That Zhao Wuming was expelled from the Azure Dragon Academy by Wenren Canglan, and he thoroughly hated Wenren Canglan, of course, he was even more jealous of Lin Feng, his eyes filled with resentment staring at Lin Feng.
The Task Hall was divided into three levels, the first level being the place where various tasks were issued by the Azure Dragon Academy. Huge crystal screens hung on the walls, scrolling through various tasks.
These crystal screens were called “Memory Crystals”, which after being blessed by a Spirit Array Master, could imprint various information and scroll it for display, which was very convenient.
The second level was where various scrolls were stored in the Task Hall, and the third level was a resting area, where Wenren Canglan took Lin Feng to a lounge.
“You may sit,” said Wenren Canglan.
“There is no reason for a junior to sit in the presence of an elder,” Lin Feng said smilingly.
Wenren Canglan smiled and said, “I actually have always wanted to meet you, but because I was out handling a matter recently, I had just returned. I am very good friends with your teacher, Sun Tiantu; I have heard of you from Old Man Sun more than once.”
Lin Feng had not expected that there was such a relationship between Wenren Canglan and Teacher Sun Tiantu. He said, “If the junior had known of elder and teacher’s relationship sooner, I would have visited the elder earlier. I hope the elder won’t blame the junior for impoliteness.”
“Haha, Old Man Sun has indeed taught a humble and courteous disciple well.”
Wenren Canglan said with a laugh.
“It is my duty,” said Lin Feng with a smile.
Wenren Canglan looked at Lin Feng with an appreciative gaze and said, “Many young people nowadays are too impetuous. Do you think that my punishment of Zhao Wuming was because you are my friend’s disciple and thus biased towards you?”
Lin Feng pondered a little before saying, “Disciple does not think so.”
“Oh?” Wenren Canglan looked at Lin Feng with interest.
“The people who fought with me were from the Blood Dragon Association. The Blood Dragon Association has enormous power within the Azure Dragon Academy, and behind the Blood Dragon Association stands a huge interest group, comprising many major families and powerful clans from True Martial Country, and I have heard that behind the Blood Dragon Association stand the Eighth Prince and a few other princes. I think this group serves the Eighth Prince. Personally, I believe the Azure Dragon Academy should serve True Martial Country, not some princes. The Blood Dragon Association has overstepped its bounds.”
Pausing, Lin Feng continued, “And Zhao Wuming, this man is involved with the Blood Dragon Association, which also violates the principles of the foundation of the Azure Dragon Academy. The Azure Dragon Academy does not get involved in the fights of True Martial Country. Zhao Wuming holds an important position within the Task Hall, obviously, there are people behind him. It is not easy for the elder to kick him out of the Task Hall, but today’s incident, where Zhao Wuming showed misconduct, and openly colluding with members of the Blood Dragon Association, gave the elder a good reason to expel Zhao Wuming, even if the people behind Zhao Wuming get involved, it will be too late to affect the matter.”
Hearing Lin Feng’s explanation, a sharp light burst from Wenren Canglan’s eyes.
What Lin Feng had said was exactly what he had been thinking. Wenren Canglan had not expected Lin Feng to be so clever as to see through the root of the matter at a glance.
Exceptional cultivation talent, outstanding Spirit Array Talent, clever like a demon, modest and low-key…
Such a person, who knew to what extent he would grow in the future?
Wenren Canglan thought in shock.
“I wonder if what the junior said is correct?” Lin Feng looked at Wenren Canglan.
Coming back to his senses, Wenren Canglan nodded and said with a smile, “What you said is very correct, this Zhao Wuming was a big figure planted here, and this conflict has indeed resolved Zhao Wuming.”
Lin Feng said, “The Blood Dragon Association is a towering tree that attracts the wind, not knowing restraint and will soon bring about disaster.”
Wenren Canglan said with a laugh, “This relates to the struggle for the crown, but it has nothing to do with us; the Azure Dragon Academy does not get involved in these matters.”
Lin Feng nodded. His heart was set on martial arts, hoping to join ancient forces in the future to continue his cultivation and strive to become a peerless powerhouse, without the slightest interest in mundane royal authority.
