Chapter 159: Chapter 159: Facing the Fine Compound

Translator: Misty Cloud Editor: Misty Cloud

The sound of his voice barely stopped when suddenly a gale directly whirled around him, stuffing his mouth full of dust.

Baili Jia Jue calmly walked away from his side.

“What’s going on!” That person from the Fine Compound violently howled. “How’s it only windy where I am! Pah pah!”

Nangong Lie wickedly smiled, also walking over.

That person from the Fine Compound was enraged. What’s the meaning of that? Were they ignoring him?

“Quiet!” The teacher on the stage noticed the commotion and was totally pissed as he turned this way and looked.

That person from the Fine Compound could only put away his fists. As before, the gaze he directed at Wei Wei and company was daggers!

“I will now announce the results of the two competitions.” The teacher opened the roll of fine paper presented to him, recognizing the writing. “Superior Compound versus Fine Compound, Superior Compound clean sweep.”

“Good Compound versus Inferior Compound...”

That teacher thought his eyes were deceiving him. When he read to this part, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

In the audience, Helian Jiao Er and Yuan Ling Xuan wasn’t paying much heed. Did they still need to announce it, the Good Compound won for sure!

The gray-haired teacher removed his glasses to wipe it clean. After he put it on again, he then repeated some of what he’s said. “Good Compound versus Inferior Compound, Inferior Compound clean sweep.”

What? !

Everybody’s mouth gaped open, turned their heads in disbelief, wondering if there’s some problem with this announcement!

How could those people from the Inferior Compound defeat the Good Compound.

Even if one of them got lucky, it’s still impossible to make a clean sweep!

Could it be something’s happened to the people from the Good Compound, that’s why they lost twice in a row?

Murong Cheng Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, took a glance at Wei Wei and company.

Helian Jiao Er noticed his gaze and gently spoke. “I previously heard Third Sister say that there’s a divination student from the Inferior Compound whose grades were pretty good. They probably benefited from that person’s influence.”

“What can one round possibly amount to.” Yuan Ling Xuan mockingly smiled. “Look at their appearances. They’ve won the Good Compound, yet looks as if they’ve won the championship. Everyone of them looking like country bumpkins. We simply need not mind them.”

Murong Chang Feng then retracted his gaze and responded. “Mm hm. Go rest a bit. Prepare for the second round of competition.”

However.

The Superior Compound’s Master Bai looked at what’s written on that fine writing paper and faintly knitted his brows.

Such a short amount of time and they’d already won?

However, there’s also nothing to be that surprised about. After all, their opponents were people from the Good Compound. Compared to the Inferior Compound, they’re not that much better.

Master Bai leaned back and said to Tusu Feng. “The principal ought to be happy this time. I didn’t expect these three young people’s luck to be so good. They could be considered to have beaten the odds.”

“Good luck?” Tusu Feng smiled warmly while his brows rose, not saying anything more to Master Bai. The longer a person’s been superior, the more he’d feel others can’t compare to him and even forget how big the world is. Inevitably, he’d encounter a skilled adversary.

Actually those three people really gave him a headache...they’d only competed in one round and he’d already received three complaints. The first two people, he could still understand.

What he didn’t get was that icy youngster. He didn’t even compete, why’d there be a complaint against him?

Tusu Feng’s fingers kneaded his temples. It appears that before the second round of competition, he’d need to properly have a chat with those three.

“Principal, you asked for us?” Wei Wei smiled slightly as she pushed open Tusu Feng’s study.

Tusu Feng took those complaints and placed them on the table. Within his gentle and refined voice there’s an outwardly kind, but inwardly evil kind of pressure. “Sit.”

Upon seeing this, Wei Wei turned around to glance at Nangong Lie, who shrugged his shoulders. She then looked at Baili Jia Jue, but he already beautifully sat down, a hand indolently supported his jaw, the other hand pouring himself some tea without a care.

Wei Wei and Nangong Lie glanced at each other and sat down in a row, preparing to freeload some food and drink from the principal’s office.

The corners of Tusu Feng’s mouth twitched, his face turning colder. “I’ve received three complaints here.”

“That shouldn’t have anything to do with us.” Nangong Lie very confidently smiled. “We recently haven’t gotten into any fights, also didn’t climb the walls to play hooky.”

Tusu Feng glanced at him and proceeded to say. “Each of these are complaints against you guys”

Nangong Lie stiffened, then lowered his head, started to drink some tea.

“The teacher reported that during the competition, you were undisciplined, disruptive, and disrespected the teachers.”

Tusu Feng’s hands moved to the tabletop, the light in his eyes indistinct. “It’s merely been one round of competition, and you already broke three rules, how the heck did you manage this?”

Wei Wei defended her innocence. “I only took an afternoon nap before going onstage.”

Tusu Feng:...Hehe, indeed not a bit of discipline present in her character!

“How about you?” Tusu Feng decided to directly ask each of them.

“Me? I did even less.” Nangong Lie’s finger pointed to himself and smiled villainously. “I chatted cheerfully with the ladies in the audience the whole time, and simply didn’t have a chance to do anything bad.”

Tusu Feng again wanted to massage his forehead. “Competitors can’t speak to people in the audience, don’t you know this?” Had discipline been eaten by the dogs?

Wei Wei and Nangong Lie signalled to each other at the same time, their gazes fell on Baili Jia Jue in tandem. The two of them wanted to know why a complaint was filed against him.

“Speak. What did you finally do that’s the last straw for the teacher.” When Tusu Feng faced Baili Jia Jue, he already did it for lack of a better option.

Baili Jia Jue pinched his thick eyebrows. “The chairs we’re sitting in were too dirty.”

“So?”

Baili Jia Jue manner of speaking was indifferent, meaning he’s completely guiltless. “That’s why I just switched chairs with the teacher nearest to me.”

Tusu Feng:...

This was something they didn’t even know about! Wei Wei and Nangong Lie thought as they silently drank tea. No wonder they received three letters of complaint. The main culprit was finally found!

“Simply shameless! Found better chairs without even telling us!”

Was this the main problem! ! !

The always gentle and refined Tusu Feng’s handsome face started showing cracks. He inhaled deeply, his voice also regained its refinement, while his eyes became bright: “Each complaint costs ten thousand taels of silver.”

Wei Wei’s unkind smiling expression stiffened. “There’s a total of a hundred thousand taels.”

“Now it’s seventy thousand taels.” Tusu Feng drank a mouthful of tea. “I believe that in the next two rounds, when you guys compete, you guys will have learned how to respect your opponents and teachers.”

Consequently, during the second round when the Inferior Compound faced the Fine Compound.

Wei Wei and Nangong Lie didn’t dare to nap, also didn’t dare to fool around with girls, transformed their previously rampant and unruly behaviors, totally respected the teacher in their speech, even their movements slowed down.

The teachers were very satisfied with this situation. The instructions and explanations they always prepared were put to good use!

Mm hm, that’s right.

It appeared that the Fine Compound’s very strong.

These three people from the Inferior Compound were clearly utterly suppressed by their opponents....
