Helian Buji listened and immediately shifted his gaze to Lu Xingzhe.
On the first day of enrollment, during the academy’s new student assembly, Lu Xingzhe had seen Helian Buji.
However, at that time he saw Helian Buji from the stage and never thought he would be this close to him now, making Lu Xingzhe feel a bit pressured.
Nevertheless, he managed to recount the situation truthfully despite the pressure.
The more Lu Xingzhe spoke, the more displeased Helian Buji’s expression became, until finally, his face turned completely dark.
A powerful oppression emanated from Helian Buji.
It was almost indiscriminate.
The surrounding students watching quickly backed away, even though they had retreated quite far, some still found it hard to breathe.
Dongfang Tianqing naturally felt the oppression emanating from Helian Buji as well, he wanted to retreat but dared not.
However, Tang Yichen, Lu Xingzhe, and Qiao Qingshu were not high-order Ancient Martial Artists, logically, they should have been overwhelmed, but with Gu Zhiqi and Su Yunling there, the oppression was deflected.
As for Mo Weiran, being a Ninth-order ancient martial artist, was certainly not afraid of this Eighth-order oppression, but boldly took cover behind Gu Zhiqi and Su Yunling.
"So, you’re Teacher Dongfang? Could you please explain on what basis you handled this matter?" Helian Buji, who was intimidatingly stern, looked somewhat ferocious now with his darkened face.
Dongfang Tianqing wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, "Dean, it’s all a misunderstanding, I didn’t know this student was acquainted with you."
Upon hearing that, Gu Zhiqi replied, "So if I were not acquainted with the dean, you would arbitrarily deal with us?"
Having said that, Gu Zhiqi looked at Helian Buji, "Your academy’s students and teachers are quite impressive; students forcibly taking others as brides, and teachers threatening and extorting students."
"Dean Helian, you’re managing well."
Helian Buji: "..."
Don’t think I didn’t catch your insinuations.
Helian Buji felt a bit uneasy at Gu Zhiqi’s words.
He immediately got angry and turned to look at Dongfang Tianqing, "Who hired you into the academy?"
Dongfang Tianqing’s face stiffened, "Dean, you forgot, you recruited me."
Helian Buji: ?
Are you sure?
Helian Buji’s expression slightly stiffened, and Gu Zhiqi gave Helian Buji a meaningful glance.
"You’re lying. When did I ever recruit you?"
Dongfang Tianqing: "Your wife is my grandaunt."
Helian Buji: "..."
It seems, it does seem I promised my wife a recommendation slot for a mentor.
His wife is from the Dongfang Family and also serves as a vice dean at the Martial Arts Academy, named Dongfang Fuxue.
As his wife, Dongfang Fuxue has a character he naturally trusts.
Back then, Dongfang Fuxue said there was a talented junior in the Dongfang Family who had reached the late stage of the Sixth Order cultivation, fitting to be a mentor at the Martial Arts Academy.
Since Dongfang Fuxue recommended him, Helian Buji agreed without much thought.
He even entrusted the assessment process to Dongfang Fuxue.
Thought that with Dongfang Fuxue overseeing, nothing would go wrong, but didn’t anticipate...
This is bad, it’s hard to explain now.
Though it was indeed his oversight, Helian Buji truthfully recounted the matter to Gu Zhiqi, hoping for lenient treatment.
After listening, Gu Zhiqi asked, "And Feng Bolang? He just asked me to be his young mistress."
