Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

In the office of the Minister of Law Enforcement, Xiao Ziru was entertaining a guest, Hu Yin, the principal of Shanghai Magic High School and a transcendent mage.

Although the conflict between Wang Yi and Xiao Kunze only occurred in a secluded place like Tianfu Orphanage, it received quite a bit of attention afterward, especially from Xiao Kunze, the principal and father of the person involved.

"Old Xiao, why did things have to come to this?" Hu Yin sighed and said to Xiao Ziru.

Yesterday afternoon, Hu Yin had just spoken with Bai Jingting on the phone. The gist of the conversation was that there had been a minor friction between students from the two schools, but it was just a small conflict between young people and would not affect the relationship between the two universities.

Bai Jingting was also very surprised to receive this news. After all, in his memory, Wang Yi had gone to support the Candlelight Army and had not returned yet. Suddenly, the principal of Shanghai Magic High School called to say that Wang Yi and Xiao Kunze had a conflict. It would be strange if he wasn't confused.

However, Bai Jingting understood Hu Yin's implied meaning, expressed his agreement, and revealed that Wang Yi would be leaving Shanghai today.

After that, Bai Jingting made that phone call to Bai Yu, asking Wang Yi to return to school immediately.

However, to Hu Yin's surprise, before Wang Yi could leave, Xiao Ziru finally couldn't hold back and went to find Wang Yi last night.

Hu Yin was unclear about the specifics of what happened between the two parties, but the result was that Wang Yi was temporarily detained on charges of violating the rules of magic by releasing magic at will and suspected of intentional injury.

Hu Yin was stunned when he received the news this morning.

Hu Yin had a fairly comprehensive understanding of Wang Yi's situation and strength. First of all, as the head of a school, he would definitely pay attention to the geniuses in various magic schools in China. In addition, Hu Yin also knew about Hu Jin's challenge to Wang Yi.

Unlike the father-son relationship between Xiao Ziru and Xiao Kunze, Hu Yin and Hu Jin have a pretty good relationship. Hu Jin had told Hu Yin about his challenge to Wang Yi before, and Hu Yin did not object.

In Hu Yin's opinion, it's always good for Hu Jin to broaden his horizons, lest Hu Jin think he can dominate among mid-level mages.

Then, as expected, Hu Jin was defeated.

Although Hu Jin was very upset, Hu Yin secretly smiled for a long time.

Moreover, when Hu Jin went to support the Candlelight Army this time, he encountered Wang Yi again, and was undoubtedly outmaneuvered once more.

Hu Yin later deduced from some of Hu Jin's descriptions that the Candlelight Army clearly valued Wang Yi much more than others.

Therefore, in Hu Yin's view, Xiao Ziru's approach was clearly unwise.

Seeing that Xiao Ziru did not answer, Hu Yin continued, "Go and release him. I will handle the rest and communicate with Wang Yi to resolve it. It's just a small problem; there's no need to make things so tense."

"Communicate? What are you communicating about?" Xiao Ziru looked up, somewhat annoyed, and met Hu Yin's gaze, saying, "Old Hu, haven't you been the principal for so many years without really taking action, so you've almost forgotten that you're actually a transcendent mage?"

"We are extraordinary mages, extraordinary! If this were in any other small country, we would be kings above tens of thousands of people, able to take whatever we want. Even in a large country, we should be respected. It's not up to some young punk to jump out and mock us."

"It's only in China that you feel so frustrated, a mere mid-level mage..."

"Shut up!" Hu Yin's smile vanished completely. He slammed his hand on the table, interrupting Xiao Ziru, and said sternly, "I'm taking this as you being blinded by anger and speaking recklessly. You'd better not let it happen again."

Xiao Ziru clenched his fists and said no more.

After a few seconds, Hu Yin took out a piece of paper from his pocket: "Look, this is a letter from the Lanling City Education Bureau. It was handed to me by the Ministry of Education early this morning. It has the handwritten signature of Wu Jie, the director of the Lanling City Education Bureau. They want to know more about the details between Wang Yi, an outstanding student in Lanling City, and Xiao Kunze, a student at Shanghai Magic High School."

"This is a letter from Meng Fanjin, the mayor of Lanling City, to the mayor of Shanghai, questioning whether Wang Yi, a hero of Lanling City, has been treated unfairly in Shanghai."

Hu Yin slammed the two sheets of paper onto the table: "These are just private letters for now. If you want to continue detaining Wang Yi, the next one will be a formal interrogation document."

Xiao Ziru looked at the two letters and sneered: "Not only is there a supernatural force behind him, but the connection is quite significant. However, Wang Yi's intentional injury is a fact. There is a confession signed by him, the process is formal, and I am not afraid of investigation."

Hu Yin raised his hand and tapped the table twice: "Don't bring up intentional injury. Xiao Kunze is alive and kicking right now. The nature of their conflict is nothing more than a fight. Countless such incidents happen every day. It's a minor matter that the authorities won't investigate unless the people complain. If you lock up all these people, even the detention centers in Shanghai might not be enough."

Xiao Ziru retorted, "Okay, let's not talk about intentional injury, but he released a divine-grade magic at Tianfu Orphanage that day, which was recorded in the magic monitoring network. Even if it didn't cause any harm, it's enough to lock him up for fifteen days."

"Xiao Kunze said that Wang Yi released a 'Life Cry' for him," Hu Yin said, growing increasingly impatient. "Xiao Ziru, are you determined to lock Wang Yi up for fifteen days?"

Before Xiao Ziru could answer, the office door was suddenly kicked open forcefully.

The two people in the room frowned slightly, looking over to see who dared to be so bold. They were met with Xiao Kunze storming into the office, shouting, "Release Wang Yi!"

Xiao Ziru frowned even more deeply and said angrily, "You have no manners at all, what kind of behavior is this?"

Xiao Kunze then noticed Hu Yin was still sitting in the office. He briefly greeted the principal, then continued yelling at Xiao Ziru, "Release Wang Yi! You're not ashamed, but I am!"

Xiao Ziru slammed his hand on the table: "You bastard, it's none of your business what I do."

"Fine, you won't release me, huh? Then arrest me too. I fought with Wang Yi, and I also beat up Qi Xiaohao and a few others before. I'm turning myself in," Xiao Kunze said, sticking out his neck.

Snapped!

Xiao Ziru stepped forward and slapped Xiao Kunze across the face, causing the latter to stagger and fall to the ground.

Xiao Ziru tried to step forward, but Hu Yin grabbed his shoulder and said, "Old Xiao!"

At this moment, Xiao Ziru's secretary arrived and hesitated before stopping when she saw the mess in the office.

Xiao Ziru took a deep breath and then asked, "Speak, what is it?"

The secretary then spoke up, "Minister, Feng Manman, the director of the Lanling City Law Enforcement Bureau, just sent a document. First, he wants to verify the criminal evidence against suspect Wang Yi; second, he proposes to send suspect Wang Yi back to his place of residence for processing; and third, he requests the Shanghai Law Enforcement Department to cooperate in apprehending suspects of intentional assault and violations of the Mage Code..."

At this point, the secretary couldn't help but glance at Xiao Kunze, whose mouth was bleeding, lying on the ground.

Even the secretary couldn't help but marvel at how bold Feng Manman was, directly proposing to arrest Xiao Ziru's son and even requesting the cooperation of law enforcement agencies in Shanghai.

Tell me, which law enforcement officer in Shanghai would dare to arrest their superior's son?

Moreover, the charges against Wang Yi were clearly based on intentionally injuring someone and violating the rules of the mage.

Xiao Kunze propped himself up and got to his feet, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth and laughing loudly: "Fine, if you don't arrest me, plenty of others will. I'll go to Lanling City and turn myself in."

After saying that, Xiao Kunze took a step to leave.

"You bastard!" Xiao Ziru grabbed Xiao Kunze by the back of the neck, flung him backward, and yelled at his secretary, "Tell Feng to get lost!"
