226 Didn’t You Want to Bark?
You Qisheng was making a huge commotion at Qinghe Academy. Soon, he attracted the people from the academy.
Yang Quanzi frowned and looked at Mr. Liu. “Why is he making so much noise here?”
You Qisheng saw that the man had white beard and seemed to be the oldest. He was even surrounded by a group of people. He guessed that he was the great scholar Yang Quanzi that You Huaijie mentioned.
Before Mr. Liu could answer, You Qisheng interrupted, “My father is the magistrate of Luochuan Prefecture. My name is You Qisheng. I heard that you’re the most knowledgeable here, so I respect you as my teacher. I won’t stoop to the same level as him.” After saying that, he deliberately glared at Mr. Liu.
You Qisheng was still very willing to bear the title of a Great Confucian disciple.
But it was ridiculous for such a rude person to be taken in as Yang Quanzi’s personal disciple.
Yang Quanzi stroked his beard and said with a smile, “The magistrate of Luochuan Prefecture is a good official title. I’ve really never seen such a highly ranked official in my life.”
You Qisheng was not a fool. How could he not understand Yang Quanzi’s sarcasm?
You Qisheng said angrily, “Don’t push your luck. I came to this lousy place to study because I am showing you face!”
Yang Quanzi waved his hand. “Our Qinghe Academy is small and can’t accommodate a great Buddha like you. Jingbai, send the guest out!”
As long as they did not commit any crime, Yang Quanzi was not afraid of what You Qisheng could do to them.
Lan Jingbai led his men to surround the entrance of Qinghe Academy. Yang Quanzi, who had just appeared, left with everyone. He did not take him seriously at all.
You Qisheng had lived for more than ten years, and this was the first time he was completely ignored.
He instructed his servant, “Smash the Qinghe Academy! A group of refugees does not have the right to build an academy!”
Before the servant could fight with Lan Jingbai and the others, there was the sound of horse hooves behind him.
You Qisheng turned around and saw that the person who came down immediately was Yang Gongbing, who was wearing an official robe.
You Qisheng walked over arrogantly and pointed his fan at Yang Gongbing. “You came at the right time. Arrest all these fellows who opened the academy without permission.”
You Qisheng was only You Huaijie’s son and did not have an official status. Yang Gongbing would not listen to a word he said.
Yang Gongbing and You Qisheng brushed past each other and stood at the entrance of Qinghe Academy. “I gave permission to build the academy. Let’s see who dares to smash it!”
Yang Gongbing was just a small official. Just because he was Yang Quanzi’s disciple, he could be charged with abusing his power for personal gain.
“So what if it’s approved? They’re not qualified to teach now!” You Qisheng fumed.
Yang Gongbing frowned. “I’ve long reported this matter to Lord Qu. Lord Qu has given special permission for them to teach at Qinghe Academy. What else do you have to say?”
You Qisheng said angrily, “What bullsh*t special permission!”
Yang Gongbing’s expression darkened. “Young Master You, Lord Qu’s decision is not something a nobody like you can slander!”
You Qisheng clenched his fists and roared, “My father is the magistrate! If you dare to speak to me like that, believe it or not, I’ll write a letter and remove you from your position right now!”
Yang Gongbing looked at him indifferently and said fearlessly, “As long as Magistrate You can sentence me to a crime and dismiss me from my position, I have nothing to say. However, if I’m innocent and am dismissed from my position, I’ll definitely report Young Master You’s words to the Emperor personally!”
You Qisheng said fiercely, “Do you think I’m afraid of you?!” His eyes were filled with killing intent.
Yang Gongbing did not back down. “Young Master You can write the letter now.” After saying that, he really instructed someone to get the paper and ink, as if he was afraid that You Qisheng would not fulfill his promise.
Seeing this, You Qisheng knew that he had encountered a tough opponent.
If he really wrote a letter back, his father might come personally with a stick.
He was supposed to find his teacher, yet he even wanted to destroy the Great Confucian Academy.
You Qisheng said stubbornly, “I don’t want to go to such a lousy academy!”
Yang Gongbing looked at him coldly. He was clearly expressionless, but You Qisheng felt that he looked down on him.
Although You Qisheng was a profligate son, he thought that his knowledge was not bad.
At least in the previous academy, he could be ranked at the top.
That was why You Huaijie placed his hopes on You Qisheng to revive the You family.
At this moment, Chu Tianbao appeared in You Qisheng’s line of sight.
He was wearing a student uniform. It was obvious that he was a student of the Qinghe Academy.
You Qisheng wanted to regain his face and walked forward to block Chu Tianbao’s path. “I want to challenge you! I want everyone to know that you Qinghe Academy students are just a bunch of trash!”
Chu Tianbao was blocked by him. He turned around and his handsome face exuded a dignified aura. His height of nearly 1.9 meters was extremely oppressive.
You Qisheng trembled in his heart and encouraged himself nervously. This person just had superficial looks.
Chu Tianbao couldn’t be bothered with him and headed straight for Qinghe Academy.
You Qisheng spread his arms to stop him again.
Since he had already said it, he had to let these people open their eyes and see clearly how they had rejected a peerless genius.
You Qisheng pointed his fan at Chu Tianbao and said arrogantly, “I won’t take advantage of you. Choose the area that you’re best at! If you lose, kneel down in front of me and bark twice.”
Chu Tianbao felt that he was as annoying as a fly, but unexpectedly, he nodded.
“Let’s compete in martial arts.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Tianbao punched You Qisheng in the stomach.
“Pfft—”
With a heavy strike, You Qisheng was directly knocked down.
Everything in You Qisheng’s stomach spilled out after he was hit by Chu Tianbao’s punch.
You Qisheng held his stomach and curled up, his expression extremely twisted.
Chu Tianbao said, “The competition is over.”
You Qisheng did not expect Chu Tianbao to ambush him while he was unprepared.
He pointed at Chu Tianbao and said with difficulty, “Attack.”
In addition to letting the servants teach him a lesson, You Qisheng also wanted to arrest him and throw him into jail for the rest of his life.
Yang Gongbing ran out and stood in front of Chu Tianbao. “You were the one who wanted to compete.”
You Qisheng was in so much pain now that he only wanted Chu Tianbao to pay back double. What he had said no longer counted. “Get lost!”
Dozens of servants swarmed towards Chu Tianbao.
Yang Gongbing stood in front of him. “Stop! You are deliberately hurting someone. You’re the young master of the You Prefecture. You still have to be punished according to Ling Country’s rules.”
You Qisheng roared at him, “Bullsh*t. He started it. I’m going to hit him back.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the servant near Chu Tianbao was sent flying by his powerful internal energy.
Chu Tianbao stood where he was, not even moving a finger.
All that was left were the pained wails of the servants.
You Qisheng’s eyes widened in fear as he saw Chu Tianbao walking towards him.
His cold gaze was like a devouring vortex.
He sensed danger and retreated in panic. “I’m the son of the magistrate. If you dare touch me, my father will kill you!”
Chu Tianbao walked up to You Qisheng and loomed over him.
You Qisheng panicked. His intuition told him that this was a man he could not afford to offend.
His status and power might be even greater than his. That was why the Qinghe Academy dared to rely on his power and do as they wished.
You Qisheng trembled and said, “I won’t pursue the matter of you hitting me. I said it on impulse just now.”
His cowardly appearance was worlds apart from when he first arrived.
An inexplicable memory suddenly flashed across Chu Tianbao’s mind. In his surprise, his eyes lowered, and he said in a low voice, “Didn’t you want to bark?”
