Chapter 146

Just as An Zhan was about to leave to participate in the selection, Chang Huan called him over, “”An Zhan, you stay here for a moment.””

“”Huh?””

An Xuan stopped and turned around to look at Chang Huan, “”Mister, is something the matter?””

Chang Huan said, “”You don’t have to go.””

An Xuan frowned slightly. “”Reason?””

Chang Huan said, “”I am the teacher of this class, the Vice Principal of the Martial Arts Academy, and you are my student. Therefore, I don’t need to give you any reasons for my decision.””

“”Just me?””

Chang Huan nodded, “”It’s just you.””

“”You guys go first. Don’t disappoint your many years of cultivation.””

Don’t forget how much you’ve paid more than others.

Before doing so, do not disappoint yourself.

“”Let’s go … let’s have a good fight. Four people have come from the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect. Besides me, all three of you must win. You can’t be reasonable and you can’t give others a chance to win.””

Upon hearing these words, Chang Huan’s heart trembled slightly. He couldn’t understand how someone like An Zhe would say such words without being reasonable or giving others a chance to win.

But thinking about it, since it was a competition, of course it should be so.

Seeing that An Xin was in no mood to argue, Qu Liuxi didn’t seem to be angry. She pulled the fuming Gu Qianye and left. As Gu Qianye walked, she turned her head to glare at him, but he completely ignored her.

Skinny Du was the last one to leave. His eyes made it seem as if he wanted to beat up Chang Huan.

Chang Huan found a place to sit down and took out a pipe from her bag. She knocked on it skillfully before stuffing the tobacco into the pipe and lighting it with a fire piston.

At his age, when he did this series of actions, he was like an old man who was already seventy years old.

An Zhe looked at Chang Huan with interest, feeling that this person had something to say to him.

But after taking a long drag on her pipe, Chang Huan got up and left.

When he left, he didn’t even look at An Zhe once, much less give any explanation.

To think that An Zhe wasn’t angry, he was even in the mood to smile.

He walked into the bamboo forest, found a rock garden and jumped onto it. Standing there, he could see the distant selection grounds.

He had confidence in Du Liuxi and Gu Qianye. Even the weakest of them all, Du Liansheng, wouldn’t have a hard time obtaining a spot.

As for Qu Liuxi, she wouldn’t worry even more.

The least worried Gu Qianye, that little lass only needs to stop exerting her full strength …

“”Ouch.””

A few new students walked over from afar, clearly the fastest to be eliminated. “”Isn’t that a well-known war of safety? How come they don’t even have the qualifications to participate in the selection?””

Another person could not help but laugh, “”This is the price for being self-righteous. You don’t want the consequences, but you’re just a boorish man.””

In my opinion, we’re inferior to them. Even though we’ve been eliminated, we can still go up and fight.

But this person is already out of the game before he even started, hahahaha... “”

There is always such a person, with an unfathomable mentality at the bottom of the laughing at the people standing on high.

An Zhe felt that if he ignored them, he would really lose his identity.

One of them said as he walked, “”Some people are just too lucky.””

But if he was still useless at a critical juncture, why not let him participate in the selection?

Wasn’t it because he couldn’t do it? When he got serious, he would be found out.

He was just an old man who was accepted into the academy, yet he became a hero in such a short time. What a joke.

“”Since when did bullying the elderly become a hero?””

The few of them laughed out loud. “”How boring! If we knew earlier, we would have gone to fight the old man as well.””

An Xuan couldn’t help but laugh. These people were truly annoying. If he ignored them, he would indeed lose his identity.

Thus, he descended from the fake mountain and straightforwardly beat up those few people. He was very direct and violent. He didn’t even have the chance to start the conversation before he went up to beat them up.

At first, those few people wanted to resist, but An Zhe didn’t even use the power of his cultivation. He only relied on his body technique to make those four or five people fall to the ground.

Then he whipped out the belts of these people and tied their ankles and hung them upside down in the bamboo forest.

The bamboo was very thick and the bamboo joints were very large, so hanging people was not a problem.

After that, he jumped up the fake mountain and continued to watch the competition over there.

Chang Huan, accompanied by a few other lecturers, walked towards the selection and happened to see An Zeng hanging someone from the bamboo. One of the lecturers’ faces turned green because he was the one who picked out the people to participate in the selection.

He was already feeling stifled from being eliminated so quickly, but in the end, he was beaten up by An Zhe.

He felt that it wasn’t just the people who had hung up on him, but his face as well.

As he expected, Chang Huan walked away expressionlessly, not even saying a word.

The teachers did not say anything and followed Chang Huan.

After walking a distance away, one of the instructors could not help but say, “”This dispute is a bit too much. If we don’t discipline him, there might be some trouble.””

“”Although he is a student highly regarded by Mr. Chen from the Military Department, but if he were to show his temper like this, I’m afraid our Martial Arts Academy will lose all face.””

Chang Huan asked as she walked, “”Was it your student who got beaten up just now?””

The instructor nodded, “”Yes …””

Chang Huan remained expressionless as she said, “”Oh … the one whose face has been swept away is not the Martial Arts Academy, it’s you.””

The instructor’s face paled, he wanted nothing more than to beat Chang Huan up. However, he knew that he couldn’t beat Chang Huan, and she was already the Vice Principal.

An Zhe had been watching the entire time, but the initial selection was actually rather boring. The students’ aptitude was uneven, and there weren’t many interesting competitions.

This was especially so for the students of Chang Huan.

The best students had all been chosen by him, and he could rely on his position as Vice Principal to be so unreasonable. Of course, he could also obtain the unreasonable victory that An Zhe had described.

An Xuan waited for a while before he saw Du skinny on the stage. Originally, he thought he would be able to see him show his might once, but in the end, the other side directly admitted defeat. This made An Xuan feel bored.

What happened next was even more boring. When Chang Huan’s students went up, almost all of the opponents admitted defeat, so much so that the audience booed incessantly.

Because of this booing, An Zhe found it amusing. Therefore, he left the bamboo forest and ran over to the selection site to take a look.

He stood on the hill behind the crowd and watched the people who had been there all day go up one after the other and then come down sulkily one after the other.

In the distance, the dean of the Martial Arts Academy spoke with an unsightly expression. He turned his head to Chang Huan and said, “”Isn’t this a little too much?””

“”Since you have selected all of the good students, the students of the other teachers aren’t willing to compete with your students at all. If so, how can they possibly have any intentions to forge ahead?””

Chang Huan remained expressionless even in front of her teacher, “”Why would a person who doesn’t have a chance enter?””

Even if they were to fight with all their might, they would still lose. They would not have any chance at all. Rather than that, they might as well admit defeat. The students, on the other hand, feel that these people are not stupid but smart. “”

He said in a low voice, “”You should at least consider the face of the other teachers.””

Chang Huan’s reply was still as cold and indifferent as before, “”Why are you considering their faces?””

If they are inferior to me, I will naturally choose the best.

“”They are stronger than me, so of course they can also pick the best ones.””

He opened his mouth and sighed, “”You …””

Chang Huan said, “”This student originally wanted to enter the battlefield. Teacher left me here, so I should know that I will only follow my own personality. If I had so much misgivings, then I wouldn’t be the one.””

He continued: “”That’s why I didn’t let you take on the position. I forced you to stay in the Martial Arts Academy.””

With your personality, if you were to become an official, you might already be a skeleton underneath the dirt.

With your talent and ability, you had great achievements, but your personality made it impossible for you to adapt to the people in the imperial court.

“”Therefore, rather than sending you to your death, I might as well leave you behind to teach my students.””

Chang Huan said, “”If it wasn’t for the fact that this student has such a character, I wouldn’t have achieved what Teacher said I would.””

“”If you continue to talk back, I will let you deal with the logistics.””

Chang Huan said, “”Teacher, you’re being a little unreasonable like this.””

Yan Jiantao shook his head and said, “”When did you ever say anything reasonable?””

Chang Huan stopped speaking and expressed her protest.

He asked in a reserved tone, “”You didn’t let that person participate in the selection, so he didn’t cause a ruckus?””

“”With his character, he probably won’t leave you any face. It’s just like how you didn’t give me much face back then.””

Chang Huan actually laughed, “”Mister is wrong, he did not cause a ruckus, he gave me enough face.””

Yan Gui said unhappily, “”I suddenly feel bored.””

Chang Huan turned her head to take a look, only to discover that An Zeng was standing far away on the other side of the hill, smiling as he watched the competition. She also felt bored, “”This guy, why didn’t he cause a ruckus?””

“”If he does, I can beat him up.””

The entire day of competition was boring. The strong outclassed the weak to be eliminated, and not a single ripple could be seen.

Because Chang Huan had selected all of his good students, there were almost no confrontations between the strong and the weak.

Behind the crowd, An Zeng saw a few people from the casino leave dejectedly. As they walked, he muttered, “”What kind of f * cking competition is this? There’s no meaning to it at all. We can’t even open a gambling house!””

“”That’s right. This is the first time I’ve seen such a perfunctory competition. In the past, the Martial Arts Academy’s selection was able to see some exciting duels. Now, it all depends on who the students are.””

The more the casinos talked, the angrier they got. They ended up targeting Chang Huan.

“”I heard that it was because that Vice Principal Chang Huan had shamelessly snatched away all the good students.

However, the other teachers didn’t have any good students, so how could they compete?

“”I just casually picked a few people to go on stage. If we were to open a gambling house, we would have lost all our pants.””

Another said, “”Pants?””

“”I want to put my pants on that Chang Huan’s head right now.””

The few of them laughed. “”Damn it, how did such a guy manage to get the position of vice principal?””

“”I can’t even get the pants out of my heart. If I do, not only will I put on my three days’ worth of unwashed pants on his head, I’ll also strip him and hang him in front of the Martial Arts Academy.””

The few of them cursed as they left. An Zhan subconsciously looked towards the high platform and found that Chang Huan had left some time ago.

After waiting for a while, the three of them came back feeling bored.

“”It’s boring. My opponent has admitted defeat. It makes me feel like holding my breath but I don’t have a place to vent it.””

Gu Qianye hooked his arm with Qu Liuxi’s as he walked: “”Be content with this. I thought that since my opponent saw that I was a girl, I would fight him no matter what.””

In the end, he agreed that the man would not fight the woman, and he admitted defeat.

“”Admit defeat then, what do you mean by a man doesn’t fight with a woman … You made me lose face by winning so much.””

Qu Liuxi said, “”So after you left the stage, you beat him up again?””

Gu Qianye smiled embarrassedly. “”You know how I beat him up so well.””

As they spoke, the three of them saw An Zaiyue waiting for them. When they realized that An Zaiyue wasn’t able to fight, they felt even more bored.

“”Why aren’t you angry?””

“”I thought you were going to fall out with me,”” he said. “”I was afraid you’d start arguing with that guy.””

An Zhan shrugged his shoulders. “”Why would I be angry?””

“”He won’t let you compete.””

An Xuan said, “”He just didn’t want me to compete. He didn’t say that he wouldn’t allow me to participate in the Autumn Ceremony.””

Qu Liuxi laughed and said, “”I told you just now, you two didn’t listen to me either.””

“”Since Mister Chang doesn’t want the competition to end peacefully, perhaps it’s just that he doesn’t want the other lecturers to feel even more bored …””

The four of them walked out of the gate of the Martial Arts Academy to find a place to eat. Then, they saw a row of bare-backers hanging on a big tree in front of the gate.

Each of them wore a pair of pants on their heads, and their clothes were all stripped off. On their buttocks were bloodstains from the tree branch they had used to cut their buttocks.

Not far away, Chang Huan walked away expressionlessly with her hands behind her back.
