Chapter 204 - 204 93 Escalating Conflict, Flipping the Table_2



Chapter 204: Chapter 93 Escalating Conflict, Flipping the Table_2 Chapter 204: Chapter 93 Escalating Conflict, Flipping the Table_2 Just as Shen Qianzhong said, the Extraordinary Academy wasn’t an ordinary school.

From its inception, the Extraordinary Academy aimed to cultivate Heroes.

In the initial stages of the great disaster, the Extraordinary Academy took on an extremely important responsibility, directly participating in combat.

But as time went on and the city’s safety improved, the Extraordinary Academy seemed to have lost its way.

Complacency breeds corruption, and the students began to indulge in pleasure-seeking.

These were indeed facts.

Did the Extraordinary Academy really need to be managed by the military?

...

The Academy Faction fell into dead silence.

Once the Extraordinary Academy implemented military control and reform, it would shake the foundation of the Academy Faction.

The corruption incident, along with this defeat, indeed provided the other side with an excellent excuse.

If such was the public will, then the people on the other side could carry out reform in the name of public opinion.

This was an overt scheme.

The scene switched to the Extraordinary Academy’s location, where reporters approached, but the leaders of the Academy purposely avoided them.

What to say at this point, and how to say it?

Stepping forward required courage and the willingness to take responsibility.

At that moment, a figure stepped forward.

It was Lin Qingze, leading the students from Noah Academy this time.

The dead Jiang Ze was an outstanding student from his Noah Academy.

“Dean Lin, do you have anything to say regarding this battle?” a reporter asked formally.

Lin Qingze at that moment seemed like a changed man, solemn in demeanor, with a frosty look in his eyes.

During this period, Noah Academy had been at the center of the storm.

Attacks targeted at Xu Mo and the Old Dean.

The Old Dean retired from his position, Xu Mo withdrew from school.

People from above entered Noah Academy, wanting to seize power, to take control of Noah Academy.

He had endured all of this.

Now, they had blatantly started to kill, taking the life of a student from his Noah Academy.

“Jiang Ze was a very outstanding student of Noah Academy.

His death is my responsibility; it was I who brought him here to fight,” Lin Qingze began, as gazes fell upon him.

The acting Dean of Noah Academy seemed to have been provoked.

“I never expected that Shen Qianzhong, the leader of the Southern Military District, would be so despicable,” Lin Qingze continued, and suddenly, the surroundings fell silent.

Steel Dome City also became silent.

Across from him, Shen Qianzhong narrowed his eyes.

What was Lin Qingze trying to do?

“It’s true that the Academy is corrupt, and I admit there has been a dereliction of duty.

What about the Southern Military District?” Lin Qingze said coldly: “With the same funding and the shortest time since establishment, the Southern Military District has superior equipment.

Where did the money for that come from?”
“Let’s not delve into that matter for now.

What’s more shameless is, the Military District’s duty is to guard.

Since when is it the Military District’s place to meddle in Academy affairs?

Shen Qianzhong is exploiting the corruption scandal, using it as a pretext.

What is he really after?”
“Ease and pleasure?” Lin Qingze said angrily, “Does the Southern Military District also want to indulge in comfort and enjoyment?

Why didn’t you choose to join the Academy then?

As long as you meet the requirements, the Academy welcomes you.

Why did you join the military?

Since you chose to be soldiers, do you still remember your original purpose, have you forgotten your sacred mission?”
“You are soldiers.

If you want ease, then discharge yourselves!”
Lin Qingze’s gaze was frosty, and after a pause, he continued, “The Academy has its own significance, inclusion, providing talents to the city.

They may not all meet the expectations of the public, but should the day of danger come, I believe that most graduates from the Extraordinary Academy would stand up and fight.

The military also has its importance, guarding at the frontline of combat.

They are all true Heroes, unsung Heroes, and both sides make their contributions from different positions.

So, what is the intention of imposing military demands on the Academy?”
“Shen Qianzhong, you have instigated hatred between the Academy Faction and the Southern Military District, informing the soldiers that the Academy students are indulging in enjoyment.

Shen Qianzhong, is this how you teach your soldiers?

Do you want to train them to be heroes who protect the city, or tools for your own struggle?

Are they the soldiers of Steel Dome City, or your personal soldiers, Shen Qianzhong?”
Steel Dome City fell into a deathly silence, with countless people watching Lin Qingze’s angry accusations, as if they were voices coming straight from the heart.

It seemed to make sense.

After all, who was right and who was wrong?

The public was somewhat unclear.

Members of the Academy Faction, too, watched Lin Qingze’s speech.

This Executive Dean of Noah Academy had just flipped the table.

Good, since Shen Qianzhong dared to order his troops to kill, then let him flip it.

The scene switched back to the military district’s station, where Shen Qianzhong stood silently watching everything, expressionless.

The reporter approached, but dared not speak, simply placing the microphone in front of him.

The atmosphere was exceedingly tense.

However, Shen Qianzhong acted as if nothing had happened, and said with a nonchalant air, “I can understand Dean Lin’s anger, having just experienced a failure, but…”
Suddenly, Shen Qianzhong’s gaze became extremely sharp, staring into the camera, “I don’t accept any of Dean Lin’s accusations against the Southern Military District.

The Southern Military District defends the south of Steel Dome City.

Casualties are a daily occurrence.

The Military District does not complain or cry to the public.

Every soldier in the Southern Military District forges defenses with their blood, without regrets.

Yet, those soldiers who defended the city with their blood are humiliated today.

Lin Qingze, if you can find any evidence of any soldier in the Southern Military District indulging in pleasures, I will immediately resign as Commander of the Military District.

If not…

I expect you to give an explanation to all the soldiers of the Southern Military District.”
Shen Qianzhong’s voice was extremely sharp, and the people of Steel Dome City convulsed inside as they watched the iron-blooded general’s roar.

His soldiers stood behind him, straight and tall, staring angrily ahead.

So, who was actually in the right?

Why should those soldiers who guarded the city be humiliated?

The camera turned to Lin Qingze.

Lin Qingze stared ahead; Shen Qianzhong had engaged in concept-switching, not responding directly but instead focusing on the shame brought to soldiers to make his point.

But one had to admit, Shen Qianzhong was quite skilled at this.

Behind Lin Qingze, a flying device descended.

Elder Tantai and Xu Mo watched the live broadcast from the flying device, hearing the dialogue between the two men.

Elder Tantai stepped out of the flying device, and instantly many eyes turned towards him.

The Old Dean had arrived.

Elder Tantai stood straight and walked to Lin Qingze’s side, looking into the camera.

Elder Tantai stared at the screen, “Lin Qingze was quite reserved in what he said.

If it were up to me, I’d say the soldiers on the battlefield before were nothing but waste.”
“A group of soldiers who trained for years amidst ruins faced students who were younger on average and lacked the courage for a direct confrontation, but resorted to military district tactics against them.

Their actions were cruel; they killed the Academy’s students without giving an explanation.

Instead, they demand an explanation from Lin Qingze, Commander Shen is quite imperious,”
Another bolt from the blue.

Steel Dome City was in an uproar, as was the Military District.

The soldiers of the Southern Military District displayed their murderous anger.

This time, the one who stood up was Old Dean Tantai.

“Old Dean,” Shen Qianzhong began, “I admire your contributions to Steel Dome City, but today, I am deeply disappointed by your behavior.

ƝονǤο.ᴄօ

Since you have retired, you should be enjoying your later years, lest you tarnish your final record.

This kind of behavior is more like the fury of the defeated.

Can’t Extraordinary Academy admit defeat?”
They were at loggerheads.

A God of War Tantai, a rising star, the leader of the Southern Military District.

Once more, Steel Dome City fell silent, time seeming to stand still.

Can’t admit defeat?

“Do you think your soldiers are strong?” Old Dean Tantai replied, “My students tell me that if they could use any means like the Military District, with just two people, they could take down all the soldiers from the previous battlefield.”
