Chapter 108 · Volume 1

I Said You Were Weak. Did You Think I Was Joking?

Hearing her words, Wang Chunyang’s eyes widened, and he looked at her in disbelief.
He never expected that a young instructor at the academy would actually dare to speak to him like that.
To say nothing of him, even the elites—who had been shocked by how young “Bai Feifei” was—stood to the side in a daze.
“What... did you say?!”
“Are you deaf?” Xu Mo scanned the crowd with a look of pure disdain.
“I said your rank is too low, which is why you don't know who I am. And yet, you still have the balls to bare your teeth at me.”
“It’s not just you. None of you people amount to a hill of beans.”
“Either you’re trash, or your families are using you as pawns, sending out a few flies like you just to annoy me.”
He opened with a volley of broad-brush insults. Before anyone could even question him, Xu Mo gave them a verbal lashing that left them reeling.
His words stunned every parent and student present. Ye Yu, standing in the crowd, couldn't help but cover her face with her hand.
She was right—when this god-like figure was in a foul mood, he really didn't give a damn about anyone’s face.
Since no one usually spoke to them like this, the group didn't even know how to react after Xu Mo finished his tirade.
Who exactly was this person to be so arrogant?
Had a major family named Bai appeared in the Inner City recently?
But while they were silent, Xu Mo wasn't satisfied yet. He checked Wang Chunyang’s level and saw it was only Level 43.
What the hell? This was even lower than Bai Feifei’s level!
“How are you so trash, huh?” Xu Mo asked with a frown. “How is a piece of work like you the Combat Department Director? You must have gotten in through the back door. Which female leader did you have to serve?”
Hearing this, Wang Chunyang’s face instantly flushed a deep red.
Nonsense! Who hadn't used connections to get in?
He was the director; he was responsible for leadership and administrative tasks. He didn't need to be a specialist in combat, so what of it?
However, Xu Mo was fair; he didn't just single out the director. He turned his gaze toward the bodyguards and hired thugs accompanying the elites.
Every single one of them was in the level forty to fifty range. Not a single Edgerunner among them. He shook his head.
“Heh... you guys really lack quality.”
“Bringing in some bottom-feeders just to fill out the ranks. Not a single person here is even remotely decent.”
After his razor-sharp insults, the entire area fell silent. No one even stepped forward to argue back.
The Elite Class students standing in the room looked at their teacher as if they were looking at a towering mountain with absolute reverence.
Holy shit, this was brutal.
Yesterday, they thought the instructor’s madness and ferocity were only directed at them as students.
They never imagined she would treat the academy’s high-ranking officials and the powerful elites who came knocking at the door exactly the same way!
Well, that made it consistent!
Immediately, the students took a few steps back, watching the unfolding events with expressions of pure curiosity.
Only Ye Yu was completely bewildered. She didn't understand what “Bai Feifei” was trying to achieve, and there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
“Little girl, is there something wrong with your head? Who gave you the nerve to say such things!”
Finally, someone snapped out of the shock induced by Xu Mo’s arrogance. A noblewoman spoke up viciously.
“You’re young, but you certainly have a big mouth!”
“What, do you think it takes an Edgerunner to deal with a rule-breaking teacher like you?”
Hearing this, Xu Mo shook his head. He sauntered through the crowd and stopped at the entrance of the training hall. He turned around, hands behind his back, and looked at everyone.
“Far from it... how could an Edgerunner possibly be enough to deal with me?”
“My point was that Edgerunners are relatively well-informed. They might actually be qualified to know who I am, so they wouldn't dare provoke me.”
Everyone: ?
These words left everyone present completely speechless.
The high-ranking parents looked at each other, and they all saw the same thought in each other’s eyes.
—There’s no talking to her. This woman is probably insane.
The thugs and bodyguards behind them all had unfriendly expressions. Even though the person in front of them was a beautiful woman, they were starting to want to get violent.
As for Wang Chunyang, he was now gritting his teeth in fury.
He had brought these elite parents here intending to use his status as a leader to lecture this teacher, force her to apologize to the students, and then discipline her severely.
He wanted to use this incident to gain favor with the elites.
Who would have thought this person was a complete lunatic!
It didn't matter if she was crazy, but if this continued and he couldn't let these parents vent their anger, his plan to climb the social ladder would fall through.
Damn it!
What was he here for? No, he couldn't waste any more words on her!
Thinking of this, Wang Chunyang’s eyes sharpened, and he shouted loudly:
“Get out of the way! This has nothing to do with you anymore!”
“From this moment on, you have no further connection with Qingping Academy.”
In truth, he didn't have the authority to hire or fire personnel, but to save face in front of the parents, he had to say it.
“Students, your status as members of the Elite Class remains unchanged. You may return now.”
“Furthermore, the academy will provide appropriate compensation for this incident.”
As he spoke, he turned to the expelled students. Then, he took a large step forward and reached out to grab “Bai Feifei’s” shoulder, intending to shove her away from the door.
But the moment he made his move, things went south.
Xu Mo’s eyes looked as if they were about to glow red. He lashed out with a kick like a lightning strike, landing it squarely on Wang Chunyang’s stomach!
With a loud thud, the fatty belly caved in deeply. The man was sent flying backward, slamming onto the ground. He coughed up some bile and immediately passed out cold!
Xu Mo knew that even based on raw levels, Bai Feifei was higher than this fat pig, not to mention her physical stats were far superior to others at her level.
Xu Mo looked at the unconscious Wang Chunyang and sneered.
“I said you were weak. Did you think I was joking?”
This single kick shocked everyone.
The Elite Class students felt a phantom pain in their own teeth, instinctively remembering the state Teacher Bai was in when she attacked them during yesterday’s lesson.
However, seeing this scene, they finally realized just how gentle Teacher Bai had been yesterday.
The elites were also incredibly surprised. They hadn't expected such terrifying power to be hidden within this girl’s slender frame.
Such formidable strength... just how old was this young teacher?
Was she just young-looking?
Moreover, the children had said yesterday that she was only a Rank 4 Scavenger. Was Wang Chunyang just that weak?
But since the fighting had started, there was no need for further talk. The thugs by the elites' sides were already prepared.
“Very well. Let me spar with this arrogant new teacher and see what gives you the right to act so outside the rules!”
