Zhang Lexuan Questions Zhou Yi

Having figured this out, his gaze towards Huo Yuhao became more serious.

Is this what they Protagonist Halo?

This was a forced pull back Huo Yuhao had just stepped out of Shrek Academy.

Given the current plot development, how could Zhou Yi possibly be allowed to expel these students so easily?

Did it finally come to investigate only after an expelled student reported it up through the ranks, all the way to the Inner Court and to her, the Senior Sister?

The situation is probably similar to what I thought. You know, among those students who were expelled, there were also a few from truly wealthy and powerful families.

Their family also has members who are Titled Douluo or even Super Douluo.

Even Shrek Academy wouldn't dismiss a Super Douluo so easily, like swatting a fly. That's probably why Zhang Lexuan came to investigate Zhou Yi.

After finishing this entry in the diary, Ma Xiaotao raised an eyebrow. She hadn't thought that much about it; she just felt that Lin Ye was right— Zhang Lexuan would only investigate if someone reported it.

She never imagined that Zhang Lexuan also had Diary, after all, Ma Xiaotao's way of thinking was indeed quite simplistic.

She was still somewhat pleased. "I knew it! Zhou Yi's actions should have been addressed a long time ago. Only Fan Yu is protecting her. Does she really think Shrek is her private property?"

Those expelled students had families with Titled Douluo experts backing them up. Even if the academy was arrogant, it couldn't really refuse to give them any face. Zhang Lexuan's arrival at this time provided a way out for both sides.

On the other side, Xiao Xiao, amidst the crowd, watched the scene in the center of the Playground while simultaneously processing the contents of her diary in her mind, muttering to herself.

"Oh, I see. I was wondering why Teacher Zhou Yi was suddenly being investigated. Turns out, a student's parent complained to the Inner Court... But Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan is amazing. She just stood there quietly, and Teacher Zhou didn't even dare to say a word."

Xiao Xiao's brain isn't quite up to par; her way of thinking is still a bit primitive.

After finishing writing this, Lin Ye's gaze returned to Zhang Lexuan, admiring her aloof and ethereal demeanor, as well as her perfect figure.

To be honest, Zhang Lexuan's temperament and figure are undeniably worthy of being one of the most popular characters.

When it comes to female protagonists, Douluo Continent never disappoints. No matter how dark their hearts may be, at least on the surface, their looks and figures are absolutely top-tier.

As soon as those words were written, Zhang Lexuan, standing in the center of the Playground, felt a tremor in her heart, and a faint blush involuntarily rose to her ears.

Even though she was used to all sorts of things, she still felt a little uncomfortable having her figure and appearance commented on so bluntly in her diary, let alone the fact that the person who wrote these words was Lin Ye, a boy who was only twelve years old.

A mix of helplessness and unspoken emotions lingered in her mind as she murmured, "This kid, so young, yet so discerning. He even said I have a dark side..."

She took a deep breath, suppressing the surging emotions within her, and maintained a cold expression on her face.

When his gaze fell on Zhou Yi again, the fleeting unease vanished instantly, replaced by an even colder, more piercing chill.

A hotel room in Shrek City.

The words in Tang Ya's mind made her stop what she was doing, and a mocking smile curled at the corner of her lips, "The most popular character? Ha, in Tang San's script, no matter how popular someone is, they're just a stepping stone to highlight the protagonist."

Zhang Lexuan, standing in the center of the Playground, finally spoke again. Her clear, cold voice, imbued with Soul Power, spread throughout the entire Playground, reaching even the students hiding in the corners.

"Zhou Yi, let me ask you, as the class teacher of the First-Year Class One, what criteria did you use to select students?"

"Are you looking at their Martial Soul talent, their cultivation potential, or whether they can withstand your unreasonable weighted running, and whether their physical strength is good enough?"

Zhang Lexuan's voice wasn't loud, but every word struck Zhou Yi's heart like a heavy hammer.

Zhou Yi's body trembled violently, her head drooped even lower, and she stammered, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

How dare she say that? How could she possibly say that?

She couldn't very well admit in front of so many students, teachers, and Teaching Department leaders that she had already investigated the talents and backgrounds of all the new students in advance.

The goal is to use this extreme method to kick out all the students who are not talented enough, leaving only the most talented students in their classes, in order to maintain their college entrance rate and their ranking and status in the college.

Once those words are spoken, the nature of the statement changes completely.

She can still stubbornly insist that it's a problem with the teaching style, and with her husband Fan Yu, the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, helping her out, there's still room for maneuver.

But if she admits to deliberately targeting students with poor talent and maliciously eliminating freshmen, then even if Fan Yu intervenes, she absolutely cannot protect her.

Shrek Academy has stood strong on the continent for so many years because it values fairness above all else, even superficial fairness, and it will never allow anyone to so blatantly undermine it.

Zhou Yi gritted her teeth, suddenly raised her head, forced a tough look onto her face, and said with a stiff neck, "Senior Sister Zhang, this is my teaching style! Every teacher has their own teaching method; some teachers are lenient, and some are strict."

Just because my teaching style is somewhat radical and I have high expectations for my students, does that mean I'm unfit to be a teacher? What kind of logic is that?

She has used this argument countless times. Whenever someone questions her teaching methods, she uses this fallacy of "strict teachers produce outstanding students" to deflect criticism, and it always works.

After all, no one can say that it is wrong for teachers to be strict with students. The saying "strict teachers produce outstanding students" has always been an irrefutable truth in the Douluo Continent.

But this time, she was facing Zhang Lexuan.

After hearing her words, Zhang Lexuan was not angry at all. Instead, she let out a very soft, cold laugh, the sarcasm in her laugh almost overflowing.

She completely ignored Zhou Yi's comments about teaching style, instead taking a step forward, her gaze like an icy knife, fixed directly on Zhou Yi's face.

Zhang Lexuan asked, word by word, "Okay, even if you say that, this is your teaching style."

"Then let me ask you again, why did you use your Soul Emperor level cultivation to release your pressure and suppress these freshmen who haven't even reached the Soul Grandmaster? Is this what you call your teaching method?"

The moment she finished speaking, Zhang Lexuan stood there quietly, without releasing her Martial Soul or even the slightest bit of Soul Power pressure.

But those cold, clear eyes stared straight at Zhou Yi, making Zhou Yi feel as if she were being watched by a sleeping ancient Ferocious Beast, and her breath caught in her throat.

It felt like a huge boulder weighing a thousand pounds was pressing on my chest, making it hard to even breathe.

His face turned deathly pale instantly, and the little bit of toughness he had just forced onto vanished in an instant.
