"Why did you help Zhang Wenbo?" Zhou Hong asked furiously.
"What business is it of yours, and do I need to report to you? Zhou Hong, how dare you be so insolent towards me? Then I shall have to punish you. I will confine you here for three days and three nights. After three days and three nights, my confinement of you will automatically disappear."
"You...!" Zhou Hong was filled with immense anger. Interfering with the life-and-death duel was one thing, but now he was to be confined here for three days and three nights.
Zhou Hong could not move at all in the air. Only those who had experienced it could understand how unbearable this feeling was.
Although Zhou Hong's heart was about to explode with rage, he was helpless at this moment.
"Zhang Wenbo, in the future, do not act so rashly. If I hadn't discovered it just now, you would have been killed," the old man said, no longer paying attention to Zhou Hong, his eyes fixed on Zhang Wenbo as he lectured him.
"Guardian Wan Yan, you are right. I will never dare to do so again."
"It's good that you know. Your grandfather asked me to take good care of you. If you had really died here today, I wouldn't know how to explain it to your grandfather."
"Mmm, thank you for your concern, Uncle Wan Yan." Su Dan Novel Net
"Your life-and-death duel today is canceled. You should also hurry back and repair your body. Your cultivation has dropped so much now, and it's unknown how many years it will take to cultivate back to the Golden Core mid-stage."
Zhang Wenbo was instantly furious, his eyes filled with hatred as he looked at Zhou Hong. His cultivation had now dropped to the Fusion stage, equivalent to a freshman. Although the speed of re-cultivation would be faster, it would take at least eight to ten years to cultivate back to the Golden Core. By then, he would be facing graduation. In short, he could no longer become an outstanding graduate.
Thinking of this, Zhang Wenbo clenched his fists in anger. Although he had saved his life, he had lost terribly.
"Then I'll be leaving." The old man did not linger. As he left, he did not glance at Zhou Hong again. He flew away instantly. It was unknown what level of existence he held in Taigu Academy, but he could ignore the rules of Taigu Academy, which showed he had a certain status and position within it.
After the old man left, Zhang Wenbo walked up to Zhou Hong and sneered, "Zhou Hong, you're so impressive. Show me how impressive you are again."
"Hmph, Zhang Wenbo, I'm immobilized now. Otherwise, you'll see how I deal with you. You, a weakling at the Fusion stage, even if you recover your strength, you are no match for me. Just you wait." Zhou Hong threatened.
"Alright, I'll wait. What can you do even if you wait? You still don't know who that Guardian was, do you? He's a good friend of my grandfather. You, a cultivator from the boondocks, wouldn't understand how many connections people like us from powerful families have. How dare you compete with me."
"Hahaha." Zhou Hong laughed in rage.
"Keep laughing. I want to see how long you can laugh. Look at yourself, and you dare to fight me for a woman."
Zhou Hong no longer bothered to hide it and said directly, "Do you think that Ye Ziran gave her first time to me, and her second time can be yours?"
"Why not? I believe Ziran. From now on, she will be mine. I will take her when I go back later, and that will make you furious."
"Zhang Wenbo, just yesterday, after you challenged me to a life-and-death duel, Ye Ziran came to see me. She went to my dormitory, and we stayed in the dormitory for an hour."
"What do you mean?"
"Don't you understand? The second time Ye Ziran promised you is gone."
"Impossible. You're trying to anger me, no way."
"Hahaha, I knew you might not believe me, so yesterday, I secretly recorded a memory scroll." Zhou Hong's mind moved, and a scroll fell from him.
Zhang Wenbo quickly opened the scroll. On the scroll, a picture immediately appeared, which was the video Zhou Hong had secretly recorded yesterday. The video contained embarrassing scenes, and there was also sound.
"Ah." Zhang Wenbo sat down on the ground.
This memory scroll was a magical artifact, somewhat like a camera, used specifically to record images. However, these things had an expiration date. Low-grade scrolls could only be preserved for 10 to 20 years.
"See? It was recorded for a full hour. I'll give it to you."
"Zhou Hong, you scoundrel."
"Haha, Ye Ziran came to me herself. It's not like I did anything for nothing."
"Pfft...!" The next second, Zhang Wenbo spat out a mouthful of blood.
Immediately after, Zhang Wenbo's cultivation realm dropped again, directly to the late stage of Enlightenment.
"Hahaha, Zhang Wenbo, with your cultivation so low, you're not qualified to enter Taigu Academy anymore. If I were you, I'd scram. You're the weakest student in the entire Taigu Academy." Zhou Hong laughed heartily. The lowest admission requirement for Taigu Academy was early Fusion. Now Zhang Wenbo had dropped below even the weakest student's realm.
At this moment, on the viewing platform, Ye Ziran closed her eyes in despair. She never expected that Zhou Hong had secretly recorded it with a memory scroll yesterday. Even less did she expect that Zhou Hong would use it to stimulate Zhang Wenbo. Now, it was hopeless for her and Zhang Wenbo.
Originally, Ye Ziran chose Zhang Wenbo because of his family background, which would also be beneficial to her future cultivation.
"Zhou Hong, you wait and see." Zhang Wenbo walked away, his body weak.
The people present also dispersed one after another.
Only Zhou Hong was fixed in the air, unable to move, only his eyeballs could move.
Zhou Hong wanted to wait until everyone had left to see if he could enter the sub-world.
The crowd gradually dispersed, but it would take some time for everyone to leave.
At this moment, Lu Qianqian walked over.
"Zhou Hong, you can just wait here for three days," Lu Qianqian said helplessly, looking at Zhou Hong fixed in the air and unable to move. She felt a bit sorry for him. However, she thought that this outcome was the best. Zhang Wenbo was not killed, and she would not be sought for revenge by his family later.
"Instructor Lu, can't you think of a way to rescue me? Do I really have to stay here for three days and three nights unable to move?" Zhou Hong asked grumpily.
Lu Qianqian rolled her eyes at Zhou Hong and said, "If I had a way, I would have rescued you long ago. The one who confined you here just now was a Guardian of Taigu Academy. Unless someone of the same Guardian level comes, it's impossible to rescue you."
"What level is a Guardian?"
"One level higher than a Vice Principal. In terms of title, they are at the same level as the Principal. Zhou Hong, although you are unwilling, not killing Zhang Wenbo is also good for you, otherwise, his family would definitely not let you go."
"Hmph, it's unknown who won't let whom go now. That so-called Guardian, just you wait." Zhou Hong vowed that one day, he would twist off the head of that so-called Guardian.
