X-Dragon Era

After hearing the report, the dean fell silent for a long time. As a master of the diamond rank, he had long been accustomed to life and death and could easily send millions of people to hell with a flick of his hand, yet this did not mean he would allow anyone to cause trouble on his turf!

Staring coldly at Xin Yun, the dean knew that all of this was because of this guy. As he pondered... the dean said in a deep voice, "Regarding this incident, do you have anything to say?"

"Well..." Faced with the dean's question, Xin Yun furrowed his brows, then resolutely said, "Yes, I think... Although the college's rules and regulations are generally quite good, there are still significant shortcomings. For example, in this incident, it was clearly unreasonable!"

"Oh!" A sharp glint in his eye, the dean said icily, "Unreasonable, you say? Tell me, exactly where is it unreasonable?"

In response to the dean's question, Xin Yun curled his lip and said, "I don't understand why, when someone pursues my woman right in front of me, I'm only allowed to stand by foolishly and watch, letting others push me aside. I agree with the rule that might makes right, but I don't agree with this rule of bullying men and domineering over women!"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, the dean narrowed his eyes dangerously and said, "If there are unreasonable aspects, you can go to the General Education Department to raise them, and we will deal with them accordingly, but... what you're doing now is obviously in conflict with the academy's rules."

"Oh?" Looking puzzled at the dean, Xin Yun shrugged his shoulders and said, "In conflict? I thought everything I did was within the rules."

"Hmph!" With a cold snort, the dean said gravely, "Within the rules? The rules are clearly written, within the academy, intentional killing is absolutely forbidden, but what did you do? Even if what they did was wrong, you can't just kill them, can you?"

Facing the dean's argument, Xin Yun curled his lip disdainfully and said lazily, "The issue now is, are they dead?"

"Uh..." Hearing Xin Yun's words, the dean was taken aback, and then firmly said, "Didn't that last Fire Dragon knight die? Are you trying to quibble?"

Facing the dean's pressure, Xin Yun remained indifferent and said, "Indeed he's dead, but was it me who killed him?"

"You!" At Xin Yun's words, the dean shouted angrily but couldn't utter another word. Yes... the first three guys hadn't died, so Xin Yun hadn't broken any rules. The last guy did die but not by his hand; this tricky account was really hard to settle.

As he pondered, the dean still refused to give in and said angrily, "Quibbling is useless, it will only deepen your sins. Let's not mention anything else, didn't you repeatedly threaten to kill them in the arena? Are you going to deny that now?"

Confronted with the dean's argument, Xin Yun laughed and said, "Please, I did say I was going to kill them, but the academy has no rule against saying so, right? Can't I just be talking big if I want to?"

"You! I..." Hearing Xin Yun's words, the dean felt a vein on his forehead ready to pop. This guy was too difficult to deal with, even bringing talking big into it—this...

Though the academy had rules for Thousands of Categories, not a single one prohibited bragging. Nor could there be such a rule; as long as humanity exists, such a regulation would never exist.

Now here's the problem, Xin Yun indeed shouted about fighting and killing, but in the end, he didn't kill anyone. When finally someone did die, it wasn't by his hand. Holding onto the verbal threats, when confronted, he claimed he was just talking big—so, it turns out, he really didn't violate any regulations!

Having been repeatedly defied by Xin Yun without being able to get a word in, the dean was really infuriated, his cheeks flushing as he said, "Even if we don't bring those up, you dared to attack a Guardian Instructor in the arena; you've got some nerve!"

"Hehe..." Hearing the dean's words, Xin Yun chuckled and said, "Well, I don't have many strengths, but I do have a big nerve. However, there's no need for your compliments, Dean. I could get cocky."

"Dammit! Am I complimenting you?" Hearing Xin Yun's words, the dean's mouth opened and closed unable to say anything. He had the intention to suppress the other with words, but upon reflection, the academy had no rule against attacking instructors in the arena. The absence of such a rule was because it was practically inconceivable for anyone to dare to do so—the power gap was just too vast. But now there was this exceptional case!

People must be reasonable. Although the dean could insist on making a baseless charge that Xin Yun was guilty, if he really did that, could the academy continue to operate? Without commanding respect through virtue, a team cannot last long. Once an exception like this was made, all rules and regulations would become empty words.

Seated awkwardly in silence, the whole auditorium was quiet. Although the dean's mind was racing, he still couldn't find a way to convict Xin Yun. According to Xin Yun's argument, he was really quite innocent, as ridiculous as his reasoning was; it was nonetheless unassailable.

Finally, the dean stood up in dismay and said loudly, "Alright, although I don't believe your explanation, you've at least given one, and I can't refute it. So... let's put an end to this matter, meeting adjourned!" Having said that, the dean turned and walked away. He didn't want to stay here for another moment.

Just as the dean turned around, Xin Yun also turned, with an overbearing and arrogant tone, he said, "Today, with everyone here, and such opportunities being rare, I want to give you all a heads up: You've all seen my girlfriend. You're welcome to pursue her, but let me say this upfront: if you pursue her, I'll start a feud right away. Today's dead man is your best example!"
