Mu Bai felt like the protagonist of a Minotaur comic: handsome, diligent, and hardworking in his cultivation, yet he couldn't prevent an ugly, fat, blond-haired man from stealing his home.
His intense resentment distorted his expression, and he abruptly turned to look at the examiner.
Get those two out of here right now, right now!
the other side.
"You mean, the examiner would tamper with the Star Sensing Stone? Just because you offended Mu Bai, and the examiner is from the Mu family?" Tang Yue chuckled, "It's just a conflict between students, how could a big family be so petty... uh."
She recalled the scions of prominent families she had come into contact with.
It seems she's not very petty.
Xu Fang sighed, "Kindness is often taken advantage of. Mo Fan and I are both soft-hearted. If we're really bullied by the Mu family, we'll probably just hide under the covers and cry..."
"Alright, alright, stop reading. I'll keep an eye out for you guys later, okay?" After a semester of getting to know Xu Fang, Tang Yue knew him very well. He was audacious and reckless; it was good enough if he didn't bully others.
Soft?
I think it's shamelessness that's the real issue!
······
"Next, Mo Fan!"
Mo Fan went on stage with his hands in his pockets, and he also sensed that something was amiss.
The blond guy was suddenly kicked off the stage and replaced by the green tea guy. The green tea guy had just finished his test and it was his turn right away. What a coincidence... My head is so itchy, I need to use my brain!
Mo Fan decisively chose to give up thinking, eat and drink as usual, and deal with whatever came his way. If you don't act, then it's a sunny day.
The examiner looked at him, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
You little punk, you think you're so talented? What good is talent if you can't survive in this world? Power is everything, and the Mu family is the number one power in Bo City!
Having offended the Mu family, these two brats' futures are destined to be tied to the bottom of society...
"Like me, place your hand on the Star-Sensing Stone."
While demonstrating, the examiner placed his hand on the star-sensing stone and took the opportunity to stick a dark stone on it.
The Dark Stone is a very small stone, and its color is very similar to that of the Star Stone. Without the aid of the Shadow element, it is difficult to spot with the naked eye.
As for special magical artifacts?
Mo Fan is just a student, dirt poor, wearing a tattered plastic pendant to put on a show. How could he have so much money?
As for Xu Fang, who will be the next to take the stage, perhaps he has some means to detect the hidden stone, but so what?
The Mu family could easily pin the blame on Mo Fan, saying that the boy failed the exam, lost his composure, and tried to frame his classmates and drag others down with him.
It would be even better if Xu Fang didn't notice either.
They could easily take this opportunity to attack the military, accusing them of attempting to interfere with the pure education system and disrupt the long-standing balance and stability of Bocheng.
Of course, reconciliation is not impossible, as long as you can show enough sincerity—for example, opening up more places at the Holy Spring to the Mu family members would be a good apology.
It's okay if you disagree; business deals involve haggling. The point is, stir things up!
And he, who pioneered this new situation, will undoubtedly receive the greatest reward from the Mu family, and might even become a retainer during his lifetime...
Thinking of that wonderful scene, the bald examiner couldn't help but laugh out loud, making Mo Fan across from him feel a chill.
Wait, could this guy be gay...?
"Ahem, test it now!" the examiner said.
Mo Fan stepped forward, about to place his hand on the Star Sensing Stone, when he heard an unfriendly voice.
"Stop!" Tang Yue said coldly, "There's something wrong with this Star Sensing Stone!"
Everyone's expression changed, especially the examiner and Mu Bai, whose faces turned pale instantly.
Mu He remained calm and tried to stop her, attempting to use his position as a school board member to suppress Tang Yue, but Tang Yue completely ignored him.
"Teacher Tang Yue, is there any problem?" Principal Zhu asked politely.
He didn't know Tang Yue's background. All he knew was that this woman had been transferred from a higher-level department, and her former boss had specifically instructed her to give him whatever he wanted and to cooperate in whatever way was required.
With a cold face, Tang Yue strode onto the stage, ignoring the bald examiner who was jumping up and down in a panic, and reached under the Star Sensing Stone to pull out the hidden stone.
The bald examiner peed.
Framing someone during a magic exam is a serious crime, the kind that gets recorded in your file and leads to dismissal from public office!
The students didn't recognize An Shi and whispered amongst themselves, completely bewildered. The examiners exchanged glances, none daring to be the first to speak.
Mu He spoke first: "So it was the Star Sensing Stone that broke. This thing is useful, but it's too delicate... It's thanks to Teacher Tang Yue for discovering it in time and making up for our mistake. Hey you, why don't you hurry up and replace it?"
The examiner was as if he had been granted a pardon.
Tang Yue frowned. She knew that this matter was inextricably linked to the Mu family.
If I were to make this public, it would put the school leadership in a difficult position, and the students wouldn't receive any compensation. Offending the Mu family, a local power, would also affect my investigation into the Black Vatican.
This is the only temporary solution...
"This is a dark stone, capable of absorbing the light of star-sensing stones, turning an S into a B!" A grief-stricken voice suddenly erupted.
Chapter 15 My brother is Zhan Kong!
Xu Fang's shout was so sudden that everyone was stunned for a moment.
Immediately, an uproar erupted!
Holy crap, is that even possible?!
"I knew I couldn't possibly only get a D! It must be because of this hidden stone. I demand a re-evaluation!"
"Me too!"
"And me, the rising star of the magical world cannot be stifled!"
The entire stadium erupted in chaos!!!
This is the only way for people to get ahead in this society. Blocking someone's future is like killing their parents. This is intolerable, even for an uncle!
Students, taken out of context, are like a firecracker; if you light it, you might hear a bang, but it's not a big deal.
But too many firecrackers can still kill people!
As the riot was about to spread from Class 8 to other classes, the Mu family's board members found the situation extremely difficult.
Principal Zhu and several other school leaders stood by and watched the show, making no attempt to smooth things over.
With a grim face, Mu He was the first to confront the bald examiner: "Who instructed you to do this? Throwing stones and undermining the fairness of the exam, you are incredibly audacious!"
He spoke while giving a threatening look.
That bald guy's whole family is in Bocheng; it would be easy for them to control him.
But then, another damned voice rang out.
"Hey, are you out of your mind? Why are you blinking like that?" After a brief moment of confusion, Mo Fan finally realized what was going on: "The examiner is from your Mu family, so you're the one who orchestrated this!"
"Mo Fan, you need to be responsible for your words!" Mu He said coldly, "I am a member of the board of directors of Tianlan Magic High School. What do you have that makes me want to target you?"
Mo Fan was equally stubborn and not intimidated at all: "Of course it's because of Mu Bai! Who doesn't know you're his uncle?"
"Bullshit!" Mu Bai, caught off guard by the revelation, instinctively cursed, a stark contrast to his usual aristocratic demeanor.
The students' gazes turned strange.
This reaction... is tantamount to admitting guilt without being asked.
"You framed me, and you still dare to curse me?" Mo Fan was furious and opened his mouth to curse the Mu family's ancestors for eighteen generations.
Xu Fang feigned concern and advised, "Forget it, Mo Fan. Maybe it really was just that bald monk's personal act. We can't let one rotten fish wrongly accuse an entire pot of shit."
That was incredibly hurtful. Not only Mu Bai, but even Mu Zhuoyun couldn't stand it anymore. He coldly looked at Xu Fang and said, "Young man, watch your words. Insulting the Mu family will get you into trouble!"
How do you know my brother is Zhan Kong?
"...Even the military shouldn't humiliate the Mu family for no reason!"
"My brother is Zhan Kong!"
"you!"
"My brother is Zhan Kong!"
Mu Zhuoyun also wanted to curse.
How dare they bully others by abusing their power? Is there no justice left?! Is there no law left?!
To save face, he couldn't back down, so he stubbornly retorted, "So what if I've cut off the void? Do you dare to insult my Mu family?"
Xu Fang nodded, his face full of honesty: "He really dares to do that."
Mu Zhuoyun: "..."
Deng Kai, a school board member from the Hunter Alliance, almost couldn't hold back his laughter, while the other non-Mu family executives also had constipated expressions as if they wanted to laugh but couldn't.
Mo Fan didn't have such concerns. He laughed until his stomach hurt, and gave a thumbs up: "Yellow Hair, I'm impressed. You're really more sarcastic!"
"How can you call that insulting? I was just repeating what the Mu family often does. How is that insulting?" Xu Fang corrected him, "This should be called the code of conduct of a great family, the domineering CEO style. You know what, it's actually quite cool."
"Haha, you're right."
The two of them sang in harmony, just like a crosstalk performance.
They're both time travelers, both have a reckless personality, one has a cheat-like artifact, and the other is going to the ancient capital next semester, what's there to be afraid of?
"Enough!" Mu Bai shouted through gritted teeth, "You were all scum who were kicked out anyway, it doesn't matter whether you have Dark Stone or not!"
When he shouted that, everyone else who wanted to be a lackey of the Mu family started yelling along.
Phrases like "The examiner's personal behavior, please don't generalize to the Mu family," "Although you are the victim, it's wrong of you to keep harping on it," and "You only made a big deal out of compensation," and even "Why were you the only one framed and not others? You should reflect on your actions"...
"So annoying." Xu Fang picked at his ear and looked at Mo Fan: "You go first, me first?"
"I'll go first!"
The new Star Sensing Stones have arrived. Mo Fan strode over to them and entered a meditative state.
Great work of light!
