Lilia nodded slightly, then her gaze fell on the surrounding tier-5 mages.
At this time, these tier-5 mages also noticed Lilia and hurriedly greeted her.
After greeting her, one of the tier-5 mages looked at the scene in the library and was immediately shocked. He could not help but ask, “Your Highness, what... What happened?”
Lilia did not say anything. Instead, she sat on the chair, flipped open the book, and continued to read.
Su Han shrugged. He returned to his seat and continued reading.
Beside him, the teacher who was originally speaking for Ron had no choice but to step forward.
He recounted everything that had happened.
“What did you say?”
The few tier-5 mages were shocked. They had not expected this.
Ever since Ron had entered the academy, he had been very talented and had attracted the attention of many teachers. Even tier-5 mages had heard of him.
But now, what did they hear?
Ron had the guts to go against Princess Lilia!
This...
“Your Highness, this is probably just a misunderstanding...”
A tier-5 mage hesitated for a moment, but still decided to speak up and plead on Ron’s behalf.
After all...
Ron’s talent was very good, and he had a chance of becoming a tier-7 mage in the future. He really did not want him to die here today.
However, when he said these words, Batra instantly became angry.
“Misunderstanding?”
“What is Her Highness’ identity? As the Princess of the Empire, the disciple of the Dean Shen Fa, if not for the Dean’s personal invitation, how could we have come here?”
“Now that Ron has repeatedly offended Her Highness, it means that he has malicious intentions toward Her Highness. Instead of arresting this criminal, you are saying that this is a misunderstanding?!”
Batra’s aura was unreserved, and his voice was as loud as thunder. “Is it because you old geezers have been teaching for too long that your brains have been damaged?!”
“Her Highness came to Saint Laurent because of the Dean Shen Fa, and not because of a mere Saint Laurent Magic Academy!”
“Let me tell you, if the Saint Roland Magic Academy does not give an explanation today, the Empire will definitely not let you off easily!”
The expressions of the few tier-5 mages were very ugly.
Batra’s shameless words were really too unpleasant to hear.
Even though in reality, everything he said was true, after all, although the Saint Laurent Magic Academy was a magic academy with a relatively long history on the continent, with Lilia’s background and talent, there were many powerful mages who were willing to be her teachers.
Not to mention, the Empire’s imperial family had their own Royal Magic Academy.
In reality, if not for the fact that Shen Fa was the principal of the Saint Laurent Magic Academy, with Lilia’s status, it would be impossible for her to come here to study.
However, even though they knew, these words were too blunt, and it made them look very ugly.
A few tier-5 mages looked at Lilia and found that she was only flipping through the books, not even looking at them.
It was as if she did not care about anything that happened in the outside world.
They understood...
This matter could not be simply ended.
The tier-5 mage who had spoken earlier took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, “How does Her Highness intend to deal with this?”
“How?”
Batra laughed coldly. “Ron has made many connections with Her Highness. He is vicious and malicious. According to the laws of the Empire, he will be killed on the spot!”
What!
Hearing Batra’s words, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
The tier-5 mages exclaimed, “This... Isn’t this too much...”
They really wanted to say that there was no need to go so far!
It was just that Ron wanted to challenge Princess Lilia, and he didn’t cause any substantial damage, so there was no need to make such a big fuss.
They wanted to ask for mercy, but looking at the calm Princess Lilia, and then looking at the flamboyant Batra, they couldn’t bring themselves to ask for mercy!
It was as if a fish bone was stuck in their throat.
Compared to the few tier-5 magicians...
The one who was the most panicked was Ron.
He had never thought that things would turn out this way!
He clearly only wanted to challenge Lilia and trample her under his feet. Why...
Why did it become so vicious!
And he had to be killed!
Didn’t this mean that he was going to die this time!?
No!
He couldn’t!
His will to live made him want to beg for mercy, but when he raised his head and looked at Lilia’s indifferent side profile, it was as if she didn’t care about anything at all.
He couldn’t bring himself to beg for mercy.
‘I, the son of fortune, have top-notch talent and the help of the necklace. How can I beg for mercy from them!?’
‘But if I don’t beg for mercy, I will die...’
Ron’s heart was struggling painfully.
He wanted to ask for mercy, but the pride in his heart prevented him from doing so!
More importantly, the indifferent attitude of Su Han and Lilia deeply hurt the self-abasement that he had hidden deep inside.
It was precisely because of the self-abasement that made him fear nobility, but at the same time, he also deeply loathed it!
Just as Ron was in a dilemma, the few tier-5 mages discovered the existence of Junior Martial Uncle Su Han.
One of the tier-5 mages looked at Su Han in the library and said, “Junior Martial Uncle, Ron’s talent is very outstanding. Please, for the sake of the academy, for teacher’s sake... We beg for mercy...”
From their point of view, Lilia was teacher’s disciple, and Su Han was also Lilia’s martial uncle in terms of seniority. If they could get Junior Martial Uncle to persuade Princess Lilia, perhaps Ron’s life could still be spared.
Once these words were said, even Batra did not speak anymore, waiting for Su Han’s reaction.
He knew Su Han’s identity. The Great Mage Shen Fa’s junior brother. If he really opened his mouth to plead for mercy, perhaps the Princess would consider his opinion.
However, Su Han did not turn his head as he read the book. He said indifferently, “Abolish his cultivation and expel him.”
Hearing her youngest martial uncle’s words, Lilia did not speak either. It was clear that she had tacitly agreed. Seeing this scene, the few tier-5 mages fell silent.
Although this punishment was still a little severe, it was much better than the direct execution from before.
At the very least, there was no need to kill him.
Moreover, they also understood that the Princess was able to make such a decision, it was indeed already conceding a lot.
It wasn’t good for them to say anything more.
Therefore, at this moment, there was only one choice in front of the Saint Laurent Academy —
Settle this matter as soon as possible and give Her Highness an explanation!
Thinking of this, the tier-5 mage took a deep breath and said, “On behalf of the Saint Laurent Magic Academy, I thank Your Highness!”
“Please rest assured, Your Highness. The Saint Laurent Magic Academy will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!”
After saying this, although the final verdict had not been announced, everyone present understood.
Ron was finished.
