"Young Master Xu, please this way."
Ji Feng and a group of teachers from the academy had been standing at the entrance waiting for Xu Hao.
Today was the day that Chen Hai and other big shots were attending the public lecture, the most important part of today's inspection.
Many teachers and professors were seeing Xu Hao for the first time. When they saw how young Xu Hao was, and that he had an even younger girl following him, expressions of astonishment appeared on their faces.
Was this the honorary professor Ji Feng had talked about hiring, the protagonist of today's public lecture at the medical school?
This was, perhaps, too young!
Li Feiyu was also in the crowd, looking at Xu Hao with eyes full of resentment. It was because of him that his own efforts had been wasted.
It was because of him that Ji Feng had changed his mind!
And it was because of him that his once guaranteed opportunity to teach the public lecture was completely lost! ThisversionissourcedfromMV3L3MPYR.
Li Feiyu snorted coldly, "Hmph! He's so young, even younger than me by so many years, how could he possibly take on such a responsibility? This public lecture is very important. Once Mr. Chen and the others feel dissatisfied, I'd like to see how you handle it! Hmph!"
Ji Feng's expression immediately turned gloomy, as he hadn't expected Liu Feiyu to publicly mock the candidate he had chosen!
Wasn't this making things difficult for him?
He said with an unfriendly tone, "Teacher Liu, are you questioning Professor Xu's capabilities?"
Liu Feiyu snorted, "If Director Ji thinks so, then I admit it. I am questioning his abilities. He has never taught at Huadu University before; I even doubt he has a teaching certificate!"
Ji Feng looked stunned; indeed, he had forgotten to consider that Xu Hao didn't have a teacher's certificate!
If Liu Feiyu brought this up, it would be tough for him to deal with.
Xu Hao frowned slightly. Had he ever offended this Liu Feiyu?
Why did he harbor such great resentment towards him?
Could it be because he had taken the opportunity to teach this public lecture from him?
Just as Xu Hao thought this and was about to speak up, he heard someone calling from a distance, "Young Master Xu, Director Ji, I'm sorry for being late."
Everyone turned to look and saw Director You Yaozong!
You Yaozong was a visiting professor at the medical department and the head of dermatology at Hua Du First Hospital. He was a prestigious figure in the medical community of Huadu. Seeing him arrive delighted the lecturers, as they might need to connect with You Yaozong for research projects in the future.
Xu Hao nodded slightly, and Ji Feng smiled, "Director You is here, excellent. Just now, Teacher Liu had some doubts about Professor Xu's ability…"
You Yaozong immediately snorted coldly, "Which Teacher Liu? Professor Xu's ability in the medical field is top-notch in Huadu. He would most certainly be ranked among the best nationwide. Who dares to question his capability?"
Liu Feiyu was surprised to see You Yaozong support Xu Hao so staunchly. What kind of background did Xu Hao have for even You Yaozong to treat him so politely?
However, even so, Liu Feiyu wasn't convinced that he should fear them. He believed in his strength and was certain he could astonish everyone, showing who the real good teacher was!
Seeing some anger in You Yaozong, Ji Feng patted his shoulder, laughing, "It's nobody, I was just speaking off the cuff. Let's head over to classroom 31101."
Classroom 31101 was the room where Xu Hao would be teaching. This classroom was large enough to accommodate five hundred people at the same time. Each department had such a spacious classroom because, during normal times, some popular elective courses required such spaces due to the high enrollment. Hence, it didn't seem wasteful.
Building 31 was the office and teaching building of the medical department.
But to everyone's surprise, You Yaozong didn't just laugh off the matter. Instead, he said coldly, "Director Ji, who dares to question Professor Xu's ability?"
Ji Feng immediately felt troubled, while the other teachers began to glance simultaneously at Liu Feiyu.
Not wanting to cause conflict at this moment, and sensing his disadvantage, Liu Feiyu didn't admit that it was him who had spoken. But now, with so many people looking at him, if he continued to deny it, it would seem cowardly.
With this in mind, Liu Feiyu stepped forward and snorted, "What if it was me? Director You, are you really going to side with someone who has never even taught a course? Does he have a teacher's certificate?"
You Yaozong said coldly, "Yes, Professor Xu does not have a teaching certificate, but that doesn't mean he can't teach! When you have students present in class, do you also require them to have a teaching certificate?"
"Hahaha!" Many people burst out laughing. Of course, that was impossible!
Liu Feiyu said, indignant, "That's not the same thing at all; you can't conflate the two issues!"
You Yaozong continued, "What is a university? A university is about freedom, equality, and openness. Ideas should be free! The great educator Cai Yuanpei once said, 'The university should be a repository for great learning, an institution that gathers knowledge from various schools of thought!'"
