Watching this scene, everyone was stunned in place. Among them, Zhou Sichen had the most unsightly expression.
Not to mention anything else, just Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao's 1,000 gold soul coins meant he had to pay twenty thousand. Add to that the Lan Susu sisters, Huo Yuxi, and Cao Jinxuan, and he was truly going bankrupt this time!
Cao Jinxuan patted his shoulder from behind, "Impulse is the devil!"
The match was over, but things on the field were not. Wu Feng stood up in anger, "Bastard, I'll kill you."
"First Soul Skill, Dragon Fire."
"Enough."
Zhou Yi's Soul Power erupted, and all the students were frozen in place. Wu Feng's Soul Skill was halted by a force and gradually dissipated.
"I said just now, anyone who intentionally injures another will get out of my class. I will apply to the academy later to transfer you out of New Student Class One."
"Teacher Wang, please escort her to the infirmary. After her treatment, she doesn't need to come back."
Zhou Yi's gaze was cold as she looked at the other students, "I'll say it again, if anyone questions my decisions or actions in the future, you will all be expelled."
"Don't think that just because you're a core disciple, I can't do anything to you. Just like before, get out of my class."
"Teacher Zhou, aren't you being too arbitrary?" Dai Huabin was very unhappy with Zhou Yi's protectiveness.
Huang Chutian behind him also said with a smirk, "Yeah, Teacher Zhou, there's no need for that."
"Dai Huabin, Huang Chutian, you two also go back and get ready to get out of New Student Class One."
Zhou Yi's tone remained unchanged, but Dai Huabin and Huang Chutian were stunned when they heard this. They hadn't expected Zhou Yi to be so resolute.
"Teacher Zhou, I'm not convinced," Zhu Lu said indignantly.
"You get out too."
Zhou Yi couldn't be bothered to give these people another look. Once she made up her mind, she directly told Wang Yan, "Teacher Wang, you are the head teacher, please go and inform the academy."
Wang Yan was completely shocked by Zhou Yi's actions. He knew that her temper was the reason she couldn't get promoted to a senior teacher, but he never imagined it would exceed his expectations.
In the classroom, apart from the students from the original Class One who understood Zhou Yi's temper, everyone else reacted the same way as Wang Yan, their eyes wide open.
Fortunately, they hadn't caused any trouble. Otherwise, given the current situation, without their core disciple status, they would truly have been expelled.
Wang Yan still wanted to try and argue, but seeing Zhou Yi's expression, he ultimately gave up.
Huo Yuxi sat beside Xiao Xiao, "Teacher Zhou was sticking up for brother just now, right? So cool!"
"Yeah, I like how she's so protective," Xiao Xiao's eyes sparkled.
"She's radiating dominance, absolutely awesome!" Wang Dong was no less impressed. He used to dislike how meddlesome the old lady Zhou was, but now he only found her incredibly cool.
It wasn't just them who felt this way. The students from the original Class One also found her domineering attitude to be incredibly endearing. After all, they had been in the same class as Huo Yuhao before and had automatically categorized themselves as "their people."
Facing the oppression from other classes, Zhou Yi stepping forward was no different than a deity descending.
Even her face looked kind.
After it was over, it was time for school to end, and Zhou Yi directly dismissed them. Huo Yuhao wanted to rush back to cultivate, but Huo Yuxi stopped him.
"What's wrong, Xixi? I'm not injured, I just want to go back and cultivate."
"I know, I watched the match carefully." Huo Yuxi pulled him along, hiding behind the crowd sneakily.
Huo Yuhao became nervous at her actions and whispered, "What's wrong?"
"Heh, gotcha, don't think about running." Huo Yuxi grabbed Zhou Sichen, who was hiding in the crowd, "The odds are ten to one. Fifty gold soul coins is five hundred, pay up."
"What money?" Huo Yuhao looked at her strangely, as did Xiao Xiao, Wang Dong, and the Lan Susu sisters and Cao Jinxuan, who were slowly gathering around.
Zhou Sichen felt like hitting a wall. Why had he been so foolish back then?
"Hey, hey, hey, don't rush me, don't rush me." He raised his hands, "You guys have to give me some time, right? Who carries over twenty thousand gold soul coins with them?"
"No need to say more, it's in your storage Soul Tool, hurry up and pay!" Cao Jinxuan was having fun teasing him, knowing that the kid was just reluctant to part with it.
Since he had to pay anyway, he might as well help his good brother out!
Zhou Sichen was furious, but he did end up clearing his 'debt.'
Huo Yuxi originally wanted to give all the money to Xiao Xiao because it was her initial investment. Xiao Xiao adamantly refused, insisting that returning the principal was enough.
Moreover, she had bet a thousand gold soul coins and earned ten thousand back, so she wasn't willing to take Huo Yuxi's small amount.
In the end, Huo Yuxi pocketed 450 gold soul coins, becoming a 'little rich woman.'
Meanwhile, after Wang Yan reported the incident, as expected, Zhou Yi was once again treated to a cup of tea from the director's office.
While she was fine, Du Weilun was thoroughly angered.
The next day, with Zhou Yi's deterrence from the previous day, Wang Yan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, realizing how enjoyable it was when students paid attention in class.
By the afternoon, Zhou Yi found fault with the students who had been transferred in and took about thirty of them out for a run.
The students from the original Class One watched with great satisfaction, as the hardships they had endured before were finally being shared by others.
Wang Yan once again witnessed Zhou Yi's fiery temper and was still unable to snap out of it for a long time.
Today was the day Huo Yuhao officially began his studies in the Soul Tool Department. After enduring until evening dismissal, he prepared to leave early.
"Brother, are we not selling grilled fish anymore?" Huo Yuxi's disappointment was evident on her face.
Huo Yuhao chuckled, "Although I'm not selling them anymore, I'll still find opportunities to give you special tutoring."
Today, the four of them had arranged to eat together. Due to their status as core disciples, the food and drinks they consumed were top-tier ingredients provided for free by the academy.
They had left feeling happy, but now Huo Yuhao only felt like his hands were ruined. Just holding chopsticks, they were trembling uncontrollably.
Huo Yuxi buried her head in her food, while Wang Dong bit down on his chopsticks and stared intently at him, "What did you do? Your hands are shaking like this?"
"Teacher Fan Yu had me swinging a hammer and smashing iron blocks for over an hour today. If I hadn't used my Mystic Jade Hand to protect myself, my hands would probably be covered in blisters by now, and you'd have to feed me," he explained.
"That's a good idea. Xi Xi and I will definitely eat quickly and leave, giving you two some private time," Xiao Xiao said playfully, looking at them suggestively.
This comment seemed to strike a nerve with Wang Dong. His face turned bright red as he exclaimed, "Who's going to feed him! Isn't his sister right here? Why should I be the one to feed him!"
Huo Yuxi slowly looked up, gazing at Wang Dong in confusion. It was just a metaphor, a joke, so why was he getting so worked up and turning red?
"Wang Dong, it's just a joke, are you getting flustered?" Xiao Xiao immediately burst into even more unrestrained laughter.
After hearing this, Wang Dong quickly calmed down, snorted, and said proudly, "Only others have the privilege of feeding this young master; he actually expects me to feed him personally?"
