The token hung in mid-air.
The vast and terrifying fluctuations emanating from it were chilling.
It showed how powerful the person behind this token was.
The phantom in the golden light remained silent.
It just floated in mid-air as if it had gone AFK.
The air itself seemed to become still at this moment.
The several auras that had previously emanated from Sky Shield Academy now enveloped this area.
The reason they didn't act when the Church arrested someone was that their superiors hadn't given the order.
Now that the one behind the Ninth Division had spoken, they no longer had any need for scruples.
These people from the Church were truly going too far.
Auras, one after another, wished they could crush these few people from the Church into meat paste.
Time seemed to stand still.
After dozens of seconds.
A voice came from within the golden light.
"Then we'll listen to Elder Ye!"
Unexpectedly, Zhuge Heng continued, "There's one more thing. Today, your Church disregarded Sky Shield Academy's regulations, broke the convention signed by our various organizations, and even hit a new student from our Sky Shield Bureau in front of so many new students. Shouldn't you show some indication of this?"
"What do you want?"
"Donate about ten cultivation techniques above the tenth rank from your Holy Light Church to our Sky Shield Academy!"
A sneer came from within the golden light, "About ten? You dare to ask for so much!"
"Then you can haggle!"
"One cultivation technique!"
Zhuge Heng shook his head, "Ten cultivation techniques above the tenth rank!"
An angry voice came from the golden light, "Bai Mao Zai, don't go too far. Our personal feud hasn't been settled yet!"
Bai Mao Zai showed no sign of fear, still grinning with his small white teeth and saying, "Bishop Wu, it's working hours now. During work hours, please address me by my title. I am the Chief Instructor of Sky Shield Academy, please call me Instructor Zhuge!"
The figure in the golden light trembled slightly, seemingly very angry. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Three techniques! If that works, fine. If not, hmph, then we'll just have to waste time with a lawsuit!"
"No problem, the techniques!" Zhuge Heng readily agreed.
"But I still have two conditions!"
"Tell me!"
"The cultivation techniques must not be circulated externally! That's the first point. The second point, Sky Shield Academy must not make things difficult for him afterward!"
The figure in the golden light pointed in Yang Haosi's direction.
"No problem!"
Three light clusters flew out from the golden light. After Zhuge Heng inspected them, he said, "The interview room is ready. Let's go now!"
Clap!
Instructor Zhuge snapped his fingers.
The few people disappeared into thin air.
This move left many of the new students present dumbfounded.
Many new students had heard that the Ninth Division had a very strong Bai Mao Jie Liu Zi, but how strong he was remained unknown.
That super cool finger snap just now stunned them.
Many female students gasped with 'wow's, their eyes sparkling with admiration.
Cheng Bingqing looked in the direction where Zhuge Heng disappeared, like a fangirl, her large, watery eyes also filled with admiration.
Fang Xin looked around and found himself in a very spacious and bright office.
After they appeared, they all sat on leather sofas.
Zhuge Heng crossed his legs and said, "Everyone, ask whatever you need to ask!"
Jiang Weiqi looked around, then his gaze sought permission from the golden light. After receiving a signal.
He took out an eyeball-shaped treasure from his spatial ring.
With a gentle toss, the eyeball-shaped treasure floated in mid-air.
A ray of light shot out from it, enveloping Fang Xin.
Jiang Weiqi looked at Fang Xin coldly, "I'll ask, and you answer! Did you hear me?"
Instructor Zhuge nodded at Fang Xin.
Fang Xin responded with a sound, "Mm!"
"Where were you when your parents had the car accident?"
"At school!"
"After your parents' car accident, did anyone strange look for you, or give you anything?"
Fang Xin shook his head, "No!"
"Never?"
Fang Xin nodded affirmatively, "Never!"
"Did your parents ever send you anything strange?"
"No!"
"Did they ever secretly take you to get any vaccinations?"
"No!"
Jiang Weiqi glanced at the eyeball suspended in mid-air. The eyeball showed no abnormalities. "Then let me ask you again, before your parents had the car accident, did you observe anything unusual about them?"
Fang Xin thought carefully for a moment, "No!"
Unexpectedly, that eyeball suddenly burst into dazzling light, flickering like a kaleidoscope.
The golden light sitting on the sofa suddenly surged, and brilliant, blinding golden light filled the entire room.
Jiang Weiqi's pupils suddenly turned golden, "Tell the truth!"
Fang Xin was silent for a moment.
"My father never touched tobacco or alcohol. Before the accident, one night he came home having drunk a lot of alcohol!"
"Continue!"
"He fainted as soon as he entered the door!"
The voice from within the golden light urgently pressed, "That's it?"
Fang Xin shook his head, "That's it!"
"Then what about after he woke up the next day?"
"He had already left when I woke up. There was a sticky note on the table saying that he and my mother had a very important seminar that morning and told me to eat out by myself. After that, there was no more contact until the police notified me to go to the morgue."
After a moment of silence in the interrogation.
Jiang Weiqi spoke again, "Then after your parents left, did any strangers come to you and say anything to you, or did any strangers intentionally pick a fight with you, wanting to harm you?"
"Yes!"
This made the few people from the Church stare intently at Fang Xin again.
"Who? What did they look like? Do you remember their name?"
As he spoke, a paintbrush and a drawing board flew out from Jiang Weiqi's spatial ring.
Fang Xin described, "Blonde hair, long hair, to here. His face was a bit squarish and large, his eyebrows were a bit light brown, his eyes were quite big, his nose bridge was very high, his nostrils were a bit fleshy, his lips were a bit thick. Overall, he was ugly-handsome, leaning towards ugly."
As Fang Xin described, the paintbrush swiftly sketched, and the portrait gradually took shape, remarkably lifelike.
Looking at the portrait, Jiang Weiqi frowned slightly and couldn't help but turn his head to the side.
As the portrait took shape, Fang Xin added, "His name is Huo Shi! The one sitting next to you!"
Huo Shi's face was grim, and he stared fiercely at Fang Xin, wishing he could tear Fang Xin into a thousand pieces.
Bang!
Jiang Weiqi slammed his fist on the table.
"Are you f*cking with me?"
Fang Xin said honestly, "Didn't you ask me?"
Jiang Weiqi choked for a moment, suppressing his anger, and said, "Is there anyone else?"
"There's one more!"
"What's their name? What do they look like!"
"Yang Haosi!"
Jiang Weiqi was speechless again. He put away the paintbrush and drawing board, his eyes burning with anger. If Instructor Zhuge hadn't been there, he would have already started torturing him.
"Everyone, are you done asking? If you're done, can we leave?" Zhuge Heng interjected.
Jiang Weiqi stared at Fang Xin, then glanced at the figure in the golden light. The golden light shrank and instantly disappeared into Jiang Weiqi's badge.
As he left, he left a sentence, "Let's go, it seems he knows nothing!"
Jiang Weiqi stood up, and Zhuge Heng leisurely stood up, "I'll see you out!"
Before Jiang Weiqi could say anything.
Clap!
After the snap of fingers.
Jiang Weiqi, Huo Shi, and many people from the Church disappeared.
Zhuge Heng put his arm around Fang Xin's shoulder, "Today's lesson was truly educational! Did you feel how insignificant you are?"
"I did!"
"Since you've felt it, then find ways to improve your strength. This world is like this; from the day humanity was born, the law of the jungle has been ingrained in our bones. No matter how civilization updates and iterates, the law of the jungle merely takes on different forms."
At this point, Zhuge Heng changed the subject, "Do you want to get rid of that Huo Shi?"
Fang Xin grinned and said, "Yes!"
Zhuge Heng put his arm around Fang Xin, "Did you see the punch Hua Lao Liu threw at Huo Shi today?"
Fang Xin recalled the punch Hua Cheng threw at Huo Shi. Huo Shi couldn't avoid it at all and had all his golden light shields shattered by Hua Cheng's punch.
Although there was a realm suppression involved, Hua Cheng's punch left Huo Shi utterly defenseless.
"I saw it!"
"That cultivation technique is called Taiyi Ascending Dragon Art. It specifically counters Huo Shi, and when mastered, it even specifically counters the Light Element. You were humiliated by the Church today, and with Hua Lao Liu's temper, he will definitely teach you the Taiyi Ascending Dragon Art to take on the Church!
The midterm exam will be in the God and Demon Ruins. The Church will also go, but anyone entering the God and Demon Ruins with a battle power above level five will be suppressed. Huo Shi will also go to the God and Demon Ruins; he can only exert level five battle power there. Whether you can kill him depends on your ability!"
