"Old Fifth, shut it!"
Qi Yan roared, his temper flaring. Silver Eyebrows immediately fell silent.
The entire room sank back into dead silence.
After a long while, Chen Xingjia said, "I'll have someone look into Xu Yi."
Qi Yan said, "No need, Chief Chen. We've already investigated him thoroughly. He's been at Biyou Academy for three years, and everything he's done is in our grasp."

The so-called Blue Wall was a famous notice board in the world of Biyou Academy.
Whenever a duel was arranged, the names of the combatants would be posted on the Blue Wall for all to see.
The world of Biyou Academy had a unique set of rules and order.
These rules could be summed up in three main principles.
First: maintaining balance and stability in the world of Biyou Academy. This was mainly achieved by forbidding private brawls while permitting duels.
Second: the strong ruled. Duels themselves were a privilege granted to the strong.
Third: the weak had room to maneuver. "Room" meant space. Reasonable rules would not leave the weak without any room to survive. In the world of Biyou Academy, beyond specifying the grounds for a duel, the rules also stipulated the relative strength of the two sides. The general principle was that duels took place between opponents of the same realm, and those of a lower realm had the absolute right to issue a challenge.
The so-called absolute right to challenge meant that those of a higher realm could not refuse a challenge unless they chose to concede.
