Chapter 51: Tit for Tat, Withdraw from Shilaike?

Tang San's mood was very heavy.

He had a Premonition that he seemed to be drifting further and further away from Xiao Wu.

Originally in Tang San's heart, he wanted to accompany Xiao Wu for life, but now she is mingling with Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, and at the same time getting closer and closer to Luo Ye.

But it's this brother of his, between him and Xiao Wu, there seems to be some estrangement.

As Tang San was about to say something, Dai Mubai behind him said coldly.

"Alright, Xiao San, since they look down on us, why do you have to humble yourself and beg them?"

Ma Hongjun also curled his lip and said.

"Exactly, hurry up; if we don't go out, those guys from Canghui Academy might think we're scared."

Tang San thought about it and indeed it was true; he said to Xiao Wu.

"After this matter is over, let's have a good talk; I'll leave first."

After saying that, Tang San followed Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun out of the restaurant.

Xiao Wu watched Tang San's back, her gaze becoming quite complex.

Zhu Zhuqing patted her hand to comfort her, while Ning Rongrong looked at Luo Ye and asked.

"Luo Ye, if we just watch them clash with Canghui Academy people and not help, Teacher Zhao Wuji will probably be very dissatisfied with us, right?"

In Ning Rongrong's view, the incident in the restaurant could hardly be hidden from the absent Zhao Wuji; he might even be hiding somewhere, secretly watching.

Given the conduct of those Shilaike Academy folks, this behavior will definitely make Zhao Wuji very dissatisfied, and likely he will use this matter to find fault with the four of them.

Luo Ye could sense that Zhao Wuji was indeed hiding in the dark, watching him, but facing Ning Rongrong's question, Luo Ye remained very calm, shaking his head slightly and said.

"Wrong is wrong; I won't, just because they're my classmates, blur right and wrong and bully others together with them."

"You all saw the whole incident from start to finish; right and wrong are clear as day."

"And if you didn't think they were wrong, why would you all just stand here doing nothing?"

Ning Rongrong gave an awkward laugh and nodded.

"You're right; I also think their approach is very improper."

That's what she said, but Ning Rongrong actually didn't take Dai Mubai et al.'s behavior to heart.

As a famous little witch of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, Ning Rongrong doesn't care about right or wrong; even if there's excitement to watch, she might even clap and cheer.

Luo Ye was well aware of this; he clearly knew Ning Rongrong's current personality was equally nasty.

But by using the Diary as a behind-the-scenes manipulator to gradually train her, sooner or later Ning Rongrong will become extremely obedient in his presence.

The conflict between Dai Mubai, Tang San, and the four others with the Canghui Academy teachers didn't last long; after Zhao Wuji stepped in, it was declared over.

What the Canghui Academy teachers and students didn't expect was that Zhao Wuji not only didn't apologize to them, but instead used his power to suppress them, directly slapping their teacher away.

And he bluntly said that Canghui Academy was exactly as Dai Mubai said, completely a trash academy, his words full of humiliation toward them.

Afterward, he didn't bother with their reactions, directly taking Dai Mubai, Tang San and the others back to the restaurant, then strode aggressively toward Luo Ye.

Seeing Luo Ye still laughing and chatting with the Shilaike Three Beauties while enjoying food, Zhao Wuji instantly flared up, snorted coldly, and questioned.

"Luo Ye, you clearly know that Dai Mubai, Tang San and the others got into a conflict with others, why are you still sitting here doing nothing?"

Luo Ye met his gaze with a calm face, as if unaware of his anger, and said lightly.

"Because my eyes are fine; I can see who is right and who is wrong in this matter."

"You!"

Zhao Wuji, hearing this, became even more furious.

Luo Ye's meaning was very clear: he was outright blaming this teacher for not distinguishing right from wrong, even saying his eyes were faulty.

Because during the previous assessment, Luo Ye made him suffer a big loss, causing this Immovable Wisdom King to lose all face, Zhao Wuji already disliked Luo Ye greatly.

After hearing this, he found Luo Ye even more displeasing to the eye.

Zhao Wuji glared at Luo Ye with a cold gaze, rebuking him in a voice full of anger.

"Since you've all entered Shilaike Academy, you are a whole; no matter what happens, you must help each other."

"Before the team, there is no distinction of right and wrong!"

Dai Mubai crossed his arms over his chest, wearing a teasing look at Luo Ye, thinking Zhao Wuji's approach was still too conservative; he should just give that guy a good beating.

Ma Hongjun and Oscar also had the look of watching the spectacle.

Even Tang San was frowning, sizing up Luo Ye, with no intention of speaking up for him.

However, what they never expected was that even facing the reprimand of Zhao Wuji, a Soul Sage teacher, Luo Ye had no intention of backing down, but instead spoke confrontational.

"I am merely a student of Shilaike Academy, not your subordinate; in my view, right and wrong are important, and you have no right to force me to do something for others."

"Not to mention not helping them bully others; if I truly feel that Shilaike Academy's philosophy clashes with mine, I will unhesitatingly withdraw from Shilaike."

"You should know, Shilaike Academy is just an academy, not a family or sect."

Zhao Wuji became angry.

Originally he intended to use this opportunity to reprimand Luo Ye thoroughly, making him lower his head and admit fault.

But now Luo Ye not only didn't lower his head, but also threatened to withdraw from Shilaike; how could the overbearing Zhao Wuji accept a student speaking to him in such an attitude?

Just as he was about to strike to teach Luo Ye a lesson, seeing Luo Ye's fearless demeanor, he quickly dismissed that dangerous idea.

Even Tang San has Tang Hao as his background; who can guarantee that Luo Ye, whose talent surpasses Tang San's, has no one backing him?

If there really is, then if he now makes a move against Luo Ye, the consequences will surely be dire.

Thinking this, the stifled Zhao Wuji could only snort coldly.

"Alright, this time I'll let you off; if you choose to stay at Shilaike Academy in the future, next time you encounter such a situation, you must not remain indifferent!"

Feeling embarrassed again in front of everyone, Zhao Wuji, after saying that, didn't linger, turned and left directly.

Dai Mubai and the others were puzzled by his half-hearted scolding.

They could all see that Zhao Wuji originally intended to strike and teach Luo Ye a lesson, so why did he suddenly change his mind?

Although they couldn't understand the reason, since they couldn't watch the good show, they naturally wouldn't stay here to bore themselves.

After Dai Mubai and the others left, Tang San glanced at Luo Ye, then immediately said to Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Wu, come out with me for a moment; I have something to tell you."
