Chapter 146: The Supreme Confrontation, Severe Punishment! (Please Follow)
The Principal of Kunpeng Academy, Yunxi, was the second highest-ranked Venerable in Devil City.
She had remained out of sight for many years, never appearing in worldly affairs. Most students had not seen her even once in their four years at the academy—and not even from a distance.
So when Principal Yunxi appeared before everyone, it caused a huge shock in their hearts.
But the Principal never handled academy matters herself—so why was she showing up now? *Could it really be to punish that scumbag Xiao Ye, to expel him?*
Once this thought appeared, it proved impossible to suppress.
In the crowd, a few prodigy students who refused to accept Xiao Ye became excited, ready to watch him make a fool of himself.
Yunxi's beautiful eyes swept the room, and she let out a cold humph before saying in a chilly voice,
"Students, we can't just let this matter pass."
Xiao Ye's heart skipped a beat, *Damn, this isn't good. He'd just been to Yunxi's villa yesterday—her disdainful look was still fresh in his memory, when she saw him as a scumbag, fickle and boundaryless, hitting on every woman.*
*What's this old woman up to now? Is she really going to humiliate me in front of everyone?*
Xiao Ye clenched his fists, thinking, *This old woman must be hitting menopause or something—she probably hasn't had a man in years. Not only is she cold, she never even cracks a smile.*
Maybe sensing Xiao Ye's anxiety, Liu Ya shot him a reassuring look.
Xiao Ye sneered, hoping this old hag Yunxi wouldn't go overboard.
If she did, once his Mythical-Level Five-Clawed Venerable Golden Dragon reached the Venerable Realm, he'd definitely rise in rebellion and pin her down beneath him, giving her a lesson she'd never forget.
Liu Ya rolled her eyes at him. She could tell from his expression that he was thinking all sorts of disgusting things.
With everyone at the scene watching, Yunxi waved her hand.
With a flash of white light—
Cloud Celestial Monarch and Ge Yao, who were still being resuscitated, suddenly appeared on the ground, their bodies still hooked up to all kinds of tubes and medical devices.
The prodigy students were stunned. *What is she planning now?*
Yunxi's next move answered everyone's questions.
She pulled out a bottle of pale blue, unidentified potion, unscrewed it, and sprinkled it over the two lying on the ground.
Ten seconds later, the pair slowly woke up, sore from head to toe, completely unable to stand. Even taking a breath felt like their Jill was about to explode.
"Principal!" "Ugh, Principal!"
Seeing their surroundings, Cloud Celestial Monarch and Ge Yao were shocked.
Yunxi's beautiful eyes fixed on them coldly, as she said in a frosty tone, "State your motives for smearing Xiao Ye, the full events from start to finish, and apologize to him on the spot."
In front of the top Venerable, both of them trembled all over.
Staring into those icy eyes, an endless terror rose inside Cloud Celestial Monarch. Stammering, he said, "I-I…"
"Hmph!" Yunxi let out a cold humph, "I don't like repeating myself."
"Waaah!" Ge Yao, mentally softer, burst into tears, sobbing as he recounted everything that had happened—including the incident with the black-clad man who gave them the Conception Crystal Stone.
After explaining everything in detail, Ge Yao wiped away his tears, ashamed, and said,
"It's all because we were too desperate to break through to the Grandmaster Realm. We let the allure of the Conception Crystal Stone cloud our minds, and led the charge in smearing Xiao Ye."
"Xiao Ye, I apologize."
Seeing the genuine remorse in Ge Yao's eyes, Xiao Ye was dumbfounded.
*So Principal Yunxi was here to get to the truth.*
*Sorry I blamed you, old woman.*
Waving his hand, Xiao Ye asked, "So everything was that black-clad guy's idea, and he provided the info? Do you know who he is?"
Ge Yao said, "He ordered us to do it, and gave us the info—but we don't know who he is."
Xiao Ye frowned deeply.
Liu Ya stroked her pale chin—maybe she had a clue who this guy was.
In front of a top Venerable, even the proud Cloud Celestial Monarch bowed his head and said, "Xiao Ye, it's true—we did it. However the academy chooses to punish us, we have no complaints. We'll accept whatever comes."
Now that the truth was out, the prodigy students in the crowd erupted in shock.
*So, the ones leading the charge to smear Xiao Ye… turned out to be the very Cloud Celestial Monarch who'd posted the challenge! And behind them, a mysterious black-clad mastermind?*
Xiao Ye looked at Yunxi with curiosity. *Yesterday, this old woman called him a scumbag, too. What kind of punishment would she hand out now?*
Catching his gaze, Yunxi remembered the scene from yesterday, licking his golden blood, and felt a sudden blush rise to her delicate face.
"Ahem!" Yunxi shot Cloud Celestial Monarch and Ge Yao a cold look, saying,
"Once your bodies recover, the both of you will serve at the combat front line for a year. Use the blood of the Alien Race to wash away your twisted thinking."
"Schemes and false accusations—use them on the Alien Race, not on excellent students like Xiao Ye in our academy!"
A year in battle at the front lines!
When they heard this, all the prodigy students at the scene shuddered, terror in their eyes.
The front lines were a place where people really died—a true, permanent death, not the kind in the Void God Tower where you could respawn infinitely!
Cloud Celestial Monarch and Ge Yao's bodies jolted violently, despair written all over their faces. "We—accept our punishment."
"Alright." Yunxi nodded, waving her hand to teleport the two of them back to the emergency room for further treatment.
The bottle of pale blue potion from before only temporarily woke them up; it hadn't really treated any of their injuries.
Just as the prodigy students thought it was all over, Yunxi spoke again,
"The main culprits are punished—now it's your turn."
"Every student who jumped on the bandwagon and followed those posts—your required credit quota is doubled."
"Anyone who came just to watch the fun—your credit quotas are doubled too, and you have to copy the academy rules one thousand times by hand."
"Teachers will follow up with everyone's punishment progress!" This сhаptеr is pаrt оf thе соllесtiоn оn МV2LЕМР2YR.
The prodigy students: ???
After a moment of stunned silence, the room erupted in wails and screams.
"No! Please, Principal, if my quota is doubled, I'll never graduate!"
"Ugh, I hate writing the most! Copying the academy rules a thousand times? I'd rather you just kill me!"
"Xiao Ye, I was wrong, I'll kneel and apologize!"
"Yeah, Xiao Ye, talk to the Principal for us! We're begging, we'll all kneel and apologize to you!"
Xiao Ye remained unmoved. *Keyboard warriors had to own up to their own words. When they jumped on the hate train, did they ever show mercy? Of course not—they just loved spouting their one-sided opinions.*
Yunxi coldly snorted and released the space freeze, restoring everyone's mobility. "Back to class, all of you. If you're still here in one second, punishments will double!"
At those words, all the prodigy students ran like hell, terrified of angering the Principal by being too slow.
Once the place quieted down, Xiao Ye grabbed Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi's hands, about to leave for class as well.
But just then, a pair of jade feet appeared in front of him. Looking up, he saw a plump white robe and an absolutely gorgeous, cool, expressionless face.
Xiao Ye paused, grinned, and said, "Old woma— uh, what can I do for you, Principal?"
*Damn, that was close. He almost called her "old woman" to her face just out of habit.*
Yunxi stared at him with an amused, inscrutable look, "Xiao Ye, are you satisfied with how this was handled?"
