Chapter 24 Don’t Tell Me You’re After His Money?

“Hey, what are you doing over there?!” The leader of the group of five muscular men shouted.

When these five fierce-looking people walked over, the principal and teachers stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do.

Some were even thinking, “Should we fight them now?”

Should they just take care of these people, then charge in to save the student?

When the five muscular men approached, the leader was a head taller than the principal and the others, and the pressure they gave off was immediately maxed out.

Therefore, the principal and the others subconsciously gulped and another thought came to their minds, “We are, after all, teachers. What damage would it do to our image if we fight? We should reason with them! Yes, we should reason and not fight.”

The principal took a deep breath and took a step forward. He said to the guy who was a head taller than him, “I’m here to ask my student to go back! He… He still has class today!”

“Oh? A student? He still has class?” The muscular man’s expression suddenly became extremely serious. He even nodded with a straight face when the principal spoke.

Even the principal and the others seemed to have started to believe that the other party only looked scary but was actually a reasonable person.

After all, he was listening to them very seriously!

Yes, that must be the case. He was even nodding his head!

It was not until the principal finished speaking that the muscular man’s eyes moved away from the principal and sized up the others. Then, he suddenly burst into laughter!

“Pfft, hahaha … Is there something wrong with your brains or do you think we have a problem with our brains? Your student came to participate in the duel of his own will. We didn’t force him! Moreover, the match has already begun. If you want to ask him to go back, please wait until the match is over!” The tall and strong man’s laughter even had a hint of terror, instantly pulling back the teachers who were still fantasizing that he was a good person back to reality.

“Oh, that’s right. The prerequisite is that your student can walk out of the arena alive.”

Just as the muscular man finished speaking, a thunderous roar suddenly came from the ring!

It seemed that the audience in the stands had seen an unbelievable scene and thus let out gasps of surprise.

The sound was so penetrating that even though they were separated by a thick wall, the principal and others who were by the gate could still hear the audience.

From the shouts, they could even vaguely hear words like “kill him”, “he’s too powerful!”, “this attack is simply too powerful”, and such.

Thus, the principal, Mr. Yang, and the others were anxious again.

“We’re the teachers of Binhai First High!” Mr. Yang gathered his courage and raised his head to look at the muscular man. He tried his best to keep a straight face and make himself look serious, “Su Chen is one of the Awakened in our high school. If anything happens to him, all of you will be in serious trouble! So you’d better hand him over now!”

However, what Mr. Yang didn’t expect was that after he finished speaking, not only did the other party not seem the slightest bit worried, but he even laughed even louder. Even the four people behind him laughed at the same time.

The five muscular men roared with laughter, which made Mr. Yang feel pressured. His serious face gradually turned into one of fear.

At the same time, he was worried about Su Chen. Judging from the roars just now, could it be that something had happened to Su Chen?

If Su Chen could be rescued earlier and treated in time, there should still be a chance of survival for the boy, right?

Thinking of this, Mr. Yang became more and more worried. His brain twitched, and he directly took a step forward, wanting to force his way through.

However, he had overestimated his strength and underestimated the other party’s temper.

Mr. Yang had not even walked three meters when someone yelled at him to stop. Immediately after, he felt a sharp pain in his leg, and the next moment, he fell to the ground.

“Ah!” A few terrified screams came from behind Mr. Yang. When the female teachers saw their colleague being beaten up, they were so frightened that their bodies trembled, and fear instantly crept up their faces.

Fortunately, the other party’s purpose was only to stop Mr. Yang. After knocking him down, they didn’t do anything more excessive.

Thus, the few female teachers who were frightened no longer had to worry about being implicated. They took two steps back and sighed in relief.

“Geez, that really scared me to death. Why did they hit him?”

“These few guys are not joking when they fight. It’s better if we don’t get into a conflict with them.”

“Yes, we should still try to reason with them. After all, as teachers, we can’t use violence!”

The few of them complained, but none came forward to help Mr. Yang. They were even worried that the muscular men would hit them, so they subconsciously stayed away.

“Mr. Yang, are you alright?” The principal called out worriedly and went forward to help Mr. Yang up. At the same time, he turned his head and said to the few muscular men, “Why are you beating us? Aren’t we just not allowed to enter because we don’t have tickets? Can’t you just go and make a few more tickets?”

The principal’s words made the five muscular men think for a moment. Then they whispered to each other for some time before replying, “You’re right. Wait, we’ll go talk to the boss now.”

After saying that, the five of them turned around and left, laughing from time to time.

“Mr. Yang, are you alright? We’re all worried about Su Chen, but you have to take care of your own safety too!” The principal helped Mr. Yang up and said earnestly. At the same time, he thought to himself that the tickets that those people would bring later would definitely be much more expensive than ordinary tickets.

However, as long as the price was not too outrageous, he could accept it!

The most important thing now was to save Su Chen. There were very few Awakened this year. If something happened to even one of them, the entire school would be in trouble!

The principal looked into the arena anxiously, and Mr. Yang did the same.

Behind Mr. Yang, the female teachers who had nothing to do started to complain worriedly as they wiped the sweat off their foreheads.

“The student is messing around, and so is the teacher! Like teacher, like student, huh!”

“A crooked stick will have a crooked shadow. Su Chen isn’t even our student, yet he almost caused us to suffer.”

“Do you think it’s necessary to put us in danger for a useless D-grade talent student? Right, principal?”

“Yes, principal. There might be some rude people in the arena. I think it’s better for us to wait at the entrance for the garrison.”

Mr. Yang held back his anger and pretended not to hear the discussion behind him. However, the more he pretended not to hear, the more arrogant the discussion became.

In the end, Mr. Yang couldn’t bear it anymore. He turned his head and shouted “So what if the talent awakened is useless? Can’t people with weak combat ability survive? If your class is so strong, why don’t you have a few more Awakened?”

There were more than 400 students from Binhai First High who participated in the awakening this semester.

Only 19 had successfully awakened their talents.

In class E03 Mr. Yang was in charge of, two students who had awakened their talents, one A-grade and one D-grade talent.

This was something that none of the other classes could achieve.

In an instant, the entire place fell silent.

The next moment, the female teachers started to curse angrily again.

“Yang Qi ‘an, what do you mean by this? You’re just teaching a new class. What does the awakening of their talents have to do with

you?”

“That’s right. To think some people think that it’s the form teacher’s credit for their student to awaken an A-grade talent. Yet, the student doesn’t even contact you, the form teacher!”

“I remember that Su Chen awakened a money-making talent, right? Since you’re so protective of him, don’t tell me it’s because you’re after his money?”
