Utterly Humiliated

After debating for a long time, the scholars finally unanimously agreed that Han Yu's theory had practical value.

"Director Han, you truly are young and promising," Lord Alto congratulated him.

Han Yu chuckled. "Lord Alto, you flatter me. These theories would never have come about without the books you provided."

"Haha, being able to develop new theories from books is Director Han's own ability. Oh, right. According to Spirit Hall's traditions, I can recommend you to Spirit Hall Academy as an instructor."

"Alto, you're poaching my people right in front of me." Pei Feng huffed angrily.

At the same time, a different idea seemed to form in his mind.

After returning to the academy.

Inside the Dean's Office, Pei Feng took the initiative and said, "Director Han, when you returned a few days ago, I noticed that your aura had grown much stronger. It seems you've encountered a great opportunity. Ah... this little temple of mine is ultimately too small for you."

Han Yu stood to one side without saying anything.

Pei Feng looked out the window, his eyes filled with longing. "The sky is high enough for birds to fly, and the sea wide enough for fish to leap. Director Han, Douluo Continent is far too vast. You're still young and need to go out and see the world. I'm not so old that I can't move yet. Old Su and I can still hold down the fort here at the academy. When the day comes that you want to leave, just let me know in advance."

"Dean, thank you for taking care of me all these years." Han Yu bowed slightly.

"You don't need to thank me. You earned all of this. When you have time, go see Old Su. That fellow has been idle for so long—have him get ready. Once you leave, the academy will still need him to work."

"I will."

With that, Han Yu was just about to leave.

But at that moment, Teacher Huang stormed in furiously.

"Dean, Director Han, Yu Xiaogang has simply gone too far. Teacher Ye was in the middle of class when he forcibly interrupted the lesson. He even tried to drag Teacher Ye away to treat his disciple."

Pei Feng looked somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this.

He had seen everything Yu Xiaogang had done over the years, but for the sake of appearances, he had not driven him away.

"Is Teacher Ye alright?" Han Yu asked.

Teacher Huang shook her head. "She's fine. Luckily, several other teachers and I discovered it early and drove Yu Xiaogang away. Otherwise, who knows what outrageous thing he might have done."

"Ah... Xiaogang told me that he'll leave once this semester ends. Director Han, you go take care of your business. I'll go talk to Xiaogang."

Yu Xiaogang really had been living too comfortably.

After thinking it over, Han Yu decided to teach him a lesson.

When he returned to the dormitory area and saw that Ye Lingling was unharmed, he finally relaxed.

Still, there were some matters he needed to think about.

After he left the academy, he could not keep idling around with Ye Lingling forever.

Ye Lingling would eventually be old enough to compete in the Soul Master Grand Competition. Either he formed a team himself, or they went to an academy that already had one.

He could not possibly let Shrek's bunch of rotten fish and shrimp win the Soul Master Grand Competition.

Compared to joining another academy, Han Yu felt it would be better to form a team of his own.

If he joined another academy, he would inevitably be constrained by others. But if he established an academy himself, he was still far too lacking in manpower and funds.

After turning it over and over in his mind, Han Yu still could not make up his mind.

As night gradually fell, Yu Xiaogang's good days were about to come to an end.

Inside his dorm room, Yu Xiaogang clenched his right hand into a fist and slammed it heavily onto the desk.

"I'm furious! Those damn bastards actually had the nerve to accuse me first!"

He was extremely dissatisfied that Pei Feng had come to reprimand him, and he had even gotten into a heated argument with him over it.

Suddenly, the lights in the dormitory flickered for a moment before going completely dark.

Before Yu Xiaogang could figure out what was happening, his vision abruptly went black, and he fainted.

The next morning.

In Nuoding City's central square, a completely naked Yu Xiaogang was tightly bound to a stone pillar at the side.

"Ah! A pervert!"

As the young girl's cry rang out, many people in the square turned to look.

Yu Xiaogang also woke amid the clamor of the crowd.

"Who's this old bastard? He has no shame at all, playing around so wildly in public?" quite a few elderly women said with snickers.

However, when their eyes swept over Yu Xiaogang's body, their expressions turned disdainful.

It happened to be Nuoding Academy's weekend break. Many students had left the academy early that morning, intending to enjoy a pleasant weekend in the city.

The large crowd gathered in the square quickly caught their attention.

"Isn't that the infamous Grandmaster from the academy? What's gotten into him today, running naked in public?"

The insults that occasionally came from the crowd made Yu Xiaogang furious. "Bastards, let me down! I'm not running naked—I've been framed! Let me go!"

His voice was completely insignificant against the crowd's noise.

Quite a few Nuoding Academy students even publicly listed Yu Xiaogang's misdeeds, declaring that he deserved what he got.

"You little bastards, don't let me get my hands on you, or I'll kill you!" Yu Xiaogang's eyes blazed with fury.

Unfortunately, the ropes around him were far too sturdy. He could not break free at all.

"Heh, judging by his behavior, it only confirms his crimes. Hehe, he really is an utterly heinous man."

News of what had happened in the city quickly reached the academy.

As soon as Han Yu entered his office, a teacher cheerfully told him the news.

He had done this himself—how could he not know? But that was not all he had done.

Last night, he had made Yu Xiaogang drink plenty of water. Heh, he wondered how long the man could hold out.

"Oh my god."

"At his age, and he still has no shame at all."

Yu Xiaogang desperately tried to turn away, but people surrounded him from every direction. There was nowhere for him to hide.

"Little San, come save me!" Yu Xiaogang screamed frantically in his heart.

Unfortunately, because it was a holiday, Tang San and Xiao Wu had not cultivated that night. Instead, they had shared a blanket.

By the time they learned what had happened to Yu Xiaogang, it was already too late. When they rushed to the square, Yu Xiaogang had already been arrested by the city guards.

"Little San, save me! Little San!" Seeing a familiar face, Yu Xiaogang hurriedly shouted.

Xiao Wu hid behind Tang San, afraid that Yu Xiaogang would call her name.

Tang San clenched his fists and shouted angrily, "Who? Who did this to Teacher?"

"Third Brother, don't be impulsive. Let's return to the academy and find the dean first. With the dean stepping in, Grandmaster will be fine."

"Teacher, wait for me!" With that, Tang San quickly ran back to the academy.

A few years ago, Nuoding City's lord's son, Xiao Chenyu, had studied at Nuoding Academy. The moment Yu Xiaogang was arrested, the City Lord's Mansion sent someone to notify Pei Feng.

City Lord Xiao Zhan patted Pei Feng's shoulder and laughed. "Dean Pei, your academy has really made quite a name for itself this time."

Pei Feng wore a bitter expression. "Stop teasing me. Yu Xiaogang truly has no shame. He's utterly disgraced this old face of mine. Ah... from now on, he has nothing to do with our academy."
