The other side's Zhu Yiji showed a look of astonishment in his eyes!
Due to his identity, he had never taken action to interfere, only setting the Square and Round Rules under everyone's feet to prevent them from intervening!
This naturally included Professor Guo and Sun Heshun!
Zhu Yiji could not let these two help Ye Changfeng and Xiang Beifei, for once Sun Heshun and Professor Guo intervened, the situation would certainly change! Thus, he tightly bound these two men, relying not only on the system but also on Spiritual Power!
However, for some reason, Professor Guo had broken free from his Square and Round Rules, escaping the blockade of Spiritual Power!
This greatly shocked Zhu Yiji! His cultivation was stronger than Professor Guo's, and his system level was also higher than Professor Guo's!
Logically, Professor Guo should not have been able to break free, yet why had Professor Guo suddenly become so powerful?
He could not understand!
Professor Guo's expression was cold as he faced He Caiwei!
An intense aura enveloped him, robust and unbreakable!
The Square and Round Rules were broken by Xiaohei, but the Spiritual Power bond was forcibly shattered by Professor Guo himself!
Though Professor Guo looked very tired, his fatigue was mixed with an uncontainable rage!
His own SSR-ranked student, Wu Shixuan, brought outsiders to slander him, and the Alliance treated him as a criminal. Even after the truth was revealed, Cao Pei decided to deal with it without inquiring him, intending to just let the matter slip away.
Professor Guo had never been one to recklessly engage in conflicts or to enjoy manipulative games; he did not like to speculate about the thoughts of others.
His abilities were meant for the desolate beasts; he always believed that the true purpose of a martial artist was to guard the borders and fight against the desolate beasts!
So he had endured many things, even if Wu Shixuan had previously issued some unreasonable border regulations surreptitiously, he would not comment.
For him, teaching and guarding the borders were the two most important things in his life. As long as he could do these two things, he would not care about the rest.
Yet everything today seemed like a joke in his eyes, provoking him and making him feel unbearably oppressed!
Ye Changfeng and Xiang Beifei both stood up for him, seeking to get justice for him, confronting those who were framing him unjustly, and standing against Cao Pei, who only cared about his own reputation and not the students' futures.
Even though they knew they were no match, they still stood up to speak for him, to do something for him.
How could he remain silent any longer?
Professor Guo's anger had been building up and upon seeing He Caiwei move against Xiang Beifei and Ye Changfeng, he finally broke through Zhu Yiji's bindings!
It was as if a slumbering dragon had opened its eyes, striving to break free from the shackles that bound it!
Zhu Yiji's Spiritual Power bondage was indeed powerful, but Zhu Yiji would never have imagined that the fire of conviction could be even more terrifying!
Professor Guo's whole demeanor turned fiery, causing even Zhu Yiji a bit of trepidation!
"Guo Zhenghong! Being a subordinate, how dare you defy me?"
He Caiwei was pushed back, his heart unable to contain his anger!
After all, he was the commander of the Alliance Beast Tide Defense Department, Guo Zhenghong's direct superior, a UR-ranked Awakener! How could he allow himself to be repulsed by an SR-ranked subordinate in front of everyone?
However, Professor Guo merely looked at He Caiwei indifferently and said slowly,
"You—what are you worth?"
He had long understood that blindly giving way only allowed others to become more aggressive!
He had always believed that cultivation was not the key determinant of one's position, that a person in a high position must have his reasons, his capabilities, and not just because of high cultivation.
So when Wu Shixuan rose above him, becoming his superior, he was genuinely happy for Wu Shixuan, believing his talents were recognized by the Alliance, and even if his cultivation was only at the early stages of God Refining, occupying that position was fine because he could support Wu Shixuan to be a good leader.
When He Caiwei became the commander of the Alliance Beast Tide Defense Department, he had no objections, believing that He Caiwei was seated there through his own capabilities, that the Alliance appointed He Caiwei because of his ability to manage and coordinate the overall situation.
But Professor Guo now saw through it all!
This group had no bottom line, they were not seated there by their talents and virtues but by various means, acting unscrupulously, and exploiting opportunities!
They abused their power, removed dissenters and framed others.
Such people were utterly unworthy of their high positions!
"In my eyes, there is only one true commander of the Alliance Beast Tide Defense Department."
Professor Guo looked at He Caiwei, his voice steady and strong.
"And that person is not you!"
Able ones are like hidden gems in the ocean, obscured by the world. The inept, however, are in cahoots, squandering their responsibilities!
The one truly capable of leading all martial artists to resist the tide of beasts, upright and able to single-handedly repel the tide of beasts, saving the entirety of Jiuzhou!
But he was sidelined by the Alliance leadership for slaying a disobedient SSR-ranked military officer!
If he had not chosen to retire, how could He Caiwei, a lowly person, climb to such a high rank?
The golden age is discarded; mediocrity thunders like pots and tiles!
This is the current state of the Jiuzhou Alliance!
"Guo Zhenghong, you are courting death!"
He Caiwei was furiously embarrassed!
How could he not realize who the 'someone' Professor Guo was referring to?
Luo Yunxian, a legendary figure! Like a dazzling star, commanding the reverence of everyone in the Alliance!
And he, as Luo Yunxian's successor, was always living in Luo Yunxian's shadow.
