After hearing the iron-headed girl’s words, Xue Tianlei’s expression changed.
Young men would always want their faces. Now that he was being verbally shot down in public, he would surely feel extremely unhappy. Hence, Xue Tianlei turned his head and wanted to blast at the person. But after seeing Ying Baiwu, he decided to control himself.
There was no solution to this. Xue Tianlei was a fifth-year student, and he would surely not be afraid of Ying Baiwu. However, since her personal teacher was Sun Mo, Xue Tianlei didn’t dare to retort back.
It wasn’t as if he couldn’t afford to offend Sun Mo. Xue Tianlei’s personal teacher was a 2-star great teacher and he was the descendant of a wealthy clan. His father had an impressive background as well.
However, Sun Mo’s fame was too great. This was especially so for God’s Hands. Its reputation had spread through the entire school and Xue Tianlei also wanted to experience it. Hence, unless there was a need to, he absolutely didn’t wish to offend Sun Mo.
Xue Tianlei had thought to simply endure it. However, when he heard the laughter from a few girls and saw people pointing fingers at him, his face started to burn with shame.
Being verbally shot at by a first-year yet not daring to retaliate? Xue Tianlei’s reputation in school would surely decline.
“Hmph, ignorant. I’m considering things for the sake of the group. Since we wear the name of the province on our uniform, we would surely be the target of a multitude of arrows. The other famous schools in the Central Province would surely aim for us.”
Xue Tianlei coldly snorted, his face had the cold look of a senior lecturing a junior. His heart exploded with joy when he said this. (This explanation is so awesome, I’m truly too intelligent!)
In truth, Xue Tianlei didn’t say anything wrong. There had been an incident like this in the past. If everyone was from the famous schools of the Central Province, why were you the only ones wearing the name of the province on your chest? Hence, if there was a chance to, the other schools would surely stir trouble and make such an arrogant group feel shame.
“So what? Whoever dares to come and find trouble, we will crush them!”
Ying Baiwu was unyielding. Her personality was always like this. In the past when she was on the streets, she learned that if you didn’t want to be bullied, you would have to be fiercer than others.
Those high-year students in the representative group looked at Ying Baiwu. Some were curious, but some also agreed with her.
“Do you think you can win every battle?”
Xue Tianlei mocked. “We don’t have to win all battles. We just have to rough up a few student groups, and I believe the others will wise up.”
Li Ziqi stepped out. She mustn’t allow Ying Baiwu to continue, or both parties may come to blows.
Xue Tianlei felt a little speechless because this was indeed logical.
For example, if those schools ranked within the top five were arrogant, none of the other groups would dare to stir trouble.
Hence, for every participating school, the first thing they must do was maintain their rankings. They couldn’t decline. After that, they would do their utmost for the league tournament.
So, most people would choose to avoid a strong enemy. “What if they are not rational?”
Zhang Hanfu whose figure was like a potato came over. When he saw the clothes of the representative group, he immediately grew unhappy. “What the hell are these clothes?”
The students lowered their head and didn’t say anything
“They are designed by my teacher. They are
not hell!”
Although Lu Zhiruo was a little afraid, she had to uphold her teacher’s face.
“Shut up!”
Zhang Hanfu raged. “Does your teacher want the Central Province Academy to become a joke?”
A freshman actually dared to rebut him? How outrageous!”
Just when Li Ziqi wanted to speak, Sun Mo’s voice rang out.
“Only by having bad results would one become a joke!”
Sun Mo walked over and stood before the papaya girl. “Also, is it worth it to bellow so loudly at a student for such a minor thing? Vice Headmaster Zhang, your heart is not magnanimous and you are narrow-minded!”
Zhang Hanfu almost choked to death from anger. He really wanted to roar, ‘You are the narrow-minded one. Your whole family is narrow-minded!’ However, if he really said this, it would prove that he was indeed not magnanimous enough.
Pu!
The girls started laughing. They didn’t really care who was right or wrong. They would simply support Teacher Sun because he was good-looking. Even for girls with bad judgment, they wouldn’t choose a potato to side with.
Speaking of which, Teacher Sun’s verbal toxicity was truly impressive. As expected of Black Doggy Sun, his bite was extremely deep.
Zhang Hanfu quickly swept his eyes around and discovered that there wasn’t a single teacher speaking up for him. This caused him to feel depressed. However, he didn’t say anything out loud.
When a vice headmaster argued with a teacher, no matter who was the victor, both would lose face.
“Hmph, a person of great moral status doesn’t remember the offenses committed by one of low moral stature!”
Zhang Hanfu started to console himself.
Very soon, An Xinhui and Wang Su arrived. Jin Mujie, Liu Mubai, and a few others were behind them. When they saw the clothes the students were wearing, their eyes all brightened.
“These clothes…”
For a time, Wang Su didn’t know how to describe them because these clothes had broken his perception and knowledge.
“They are quite beautiful. No, it would be better to say that they have a unique charm.”
An Xinhui was a little surprised.
Honestly speaking, when Sun Mo suggested changing the team uniform for the competition and took out a sample then, An Xinhui felt trepidation.
Leaving aside the fact that these clothes were bright orange, the style looked bizarre too. There were no sleeves and there was another sleeveless garment within. Also, there was a broad blue-colored belt that hung casually at the waist.
The Middle-Earth Nine Provinces were at the peak of feudal society. Thus, their style of attire was ancient in Sun Mo’s eyes, emphasizing elegance and charm.
The colors were either purple or bright yellow, and only nobles were allowed to wear red. Low-class people could only wear colors like grey and black. If one wore colors that didn’t match their class, that would be considered overstepping one’s bound and it was illegal. The offenders would be whipped and fined.
This was the first time Sun Mo made a request to An Xinhui, and she wasn’t in a good position to reject. Also, An Xinhui knew that Sun Mo wasn’t a reckless person through this half a year.
The truth proved that she hadn’t judged him wrongly.
This clothing ‘designed’ by Sun Mo didn’t look impressive at first glance. But when so many people were wearing them, the clothes exuded strength, and a natural sense of beauty was overflowing from them.
Because of feudal ethics, the martial attires for females had sleeves, but the males didn’t have them. Hence, one could see their muscled arms and sturdy shoulders.
This was especially so for the number one ranker of the Battle Hall, Fang Yan. By standing there, he resembled an iron tower, exuding an immense sense of pressure. It was like his muscles alone could crush a human to death. His aura had a hint of unbridled wildness.
“Very beautiful!”
Liu Mubai nodded. “I still love the two words ‘Central Province’ in front of their chests the most. It feels very tyrannical!”
Many young teachers nodded in agreement. After hearing this, the students subconsciously glanced at Zhang Hanfu. Zhang Hanfu’s expression had already turned awkward.
Sun Mo’s lips curled. He designed this attire based on Sun Goku’s attire from Dragon Ball. It could be considered an interesting type of taste.
At the same time, it was an eye-grabbing mark.
The scale of the ‘D’ grade tournament was very large and there would be many spectators. If there were people who came here from the same world as him, they would immediately understand after seeing this uniform.
“Sadly, you guys can’t transform into super saiyans!”
Sun Mo sighed ruefully, but he soon started after that.
(Wait a minute, I can design a spirit rune that mimics the transformation effect of a super saiyan! Although their combat strength cannot be raised, so what?)
Looking good was the most important factor!
Zhang Hanfu wasn’t intentionally stirring up trouble. Rather, as an old man, his views were more conservative and he was resistant to change. This was like how humans first saw mini-skirts. They felt that mini-skirts were a piece of clothing that would offend public morals. But now, it had already become an article of clothing that women didn’t mind wearing every day. The impact of these clothes was very great on the students. So, uniforms could look like this?
“Headmaster, it’s time to gather. We should do a roll call!”
An Xinhui nodded. She pulled out a pocket watch and glanced at it before instructing, “You guys can start the roll call.”
Five minutes later, the roll call was over.
Everyone in the representative group was present, but two people were missing from the new student group. “What’s going on?”
Wang Su frowned. He had the least tolerance for things like these.
“Vice Headmaster Wang!”
Tantai Yutang lifted his hand up. “Student Zhang Qian won’t be able to come. We made a bet using the name slot as the stake, and he lost to me in a duel.”
Swish
Everyone turned and stared at this sickly invalid.
“What did you say?”
Zhang Hanfu frowned and roared.
Tantai Yutang repeated his words.
“Simply nonsense, why are you going there? To drag the team down?”
Zhang Hanfu was almost angered to death.
Because Tantai Yutang was Sun Mo’s personal student, Gu Xiuxun didn’t say anything. However, she felt some resentment in her heart.
When the school chose a student, they would consider everything thoroughly. By doing this, Tantai Yutang was basically not showing any respect to the school’s honor!
The crucial point was that he was a sickly person. Even if he represented the school to join the competition, what could he do?
“Don’t focus on my weak body. I depend on my brain for a living!”
Tantai Yutang stretched out his finger and tapped his head.
The teachers glanced at Sun Mo. All of them gave him face and didn’t say anything. If Tantai Yutang was a student of another teacher, all of them would have shot forth with their criticisms.
“By doing this, it proves that you have a pig brain!”
After Zhang Hanfu scolded him, he turned to An Xinhui and Wang Su. “Substitute him, we mustn’t let him participate!”
The league tournament would last for half a month, and the competition would be extremely cruel. There would surely be accidents. Hence, all the schools would prepare for one reserve team.
At this moment, there was a look of excitement on the faces of those in the reserve team.
“Where’s Jiang Xian? He wouldn’t have bet on this and lost his name slot to another student, right?”
Wang Su’s voice was cold.
The students glanced to the left and right. After that, they saw the flat-chested girl beside Sun Mo raising her right hand.
Si
Everyone drew in a breathful of cold air.
(The two of you better not assume that you can do whatever you want just because you two are Sun Mo’s personal students, alright?)
“Teacher Sun, you have really taught your disciples well!”
Zhang Hanfu ridiculed, “This is a major tournament that will affect whether the school gets delisted or not. In the end, our morale has already declined so much even before the competition started!”
“My disciples are naturally the best!”
Sun Mo directly rebutted.
After hearing this, Li Ziqi who was originally filled with trepidation immediately relaxed. Her teacher still doted on her very much.
When the other students saw that Sun Mo did not scold the two of them and spoke up for them instead, their lips couldn’t help but twitch. There weren’t many teachers who would shield their disciples so much!
“I believe they would surely have their own reasons for doing this. Why don’t we listen to them?”
Sun Mo then glanced at Tantai Yutang. “You should speak first!”
“I’m the eldest martial sister, let me speak first!”
Li Ziqi stepped out, wanting to give Tantai Yutang some time for him to think about how he wanted to explain this.
