The strongest warrior of the Great Qian Dynasty

Li Qingshan slowly withdrew his gaze. He could clearly sense the malice in that gaze, but there was nothing he could do about it.

The book "Tian Tong Academy Rules" in his hand illustrates the responsibilities and rules that everyone should fulfill.

Under the constraints of the rules, Li Qingshan really couldn't deal with a few people in a short period of time.

However, based on the clause about respecting teachers and elders, Li Qingshan came up with a few ways to deal with the people.

As for "I will not attack unless attacked"?

Li Qingshan had never followed this principle in his previous life, so how could he possibly act on it now?!

There are many people in this world who are completely unreasonable, and there is no such thing as "I will offend others if they don't offend me".

Some people only know how to trample on others, exhibiting a robber mentality.

……

Around noon.

When Liu Ziming saw Li Qingshan, who was still reading those miscellaneous books, he was immediately amazed.

"Brother Li, I thought you were just quite interested, I didn't expect you to love these books so much."

However, the most important thing is eating. Most of life's events revolve around food. Come on, I'll treat you to a good meal in the cafeteria!

Liu Ziming patted his chest and said with considerable pride.

Li Qingshan smiled without saying a word, looking at the friend he had just made.

He had already seen it and knew all the rules of the academy. Teachers like him could eat in the dining hall without spending any money.

His friend was clearly teasing him about this.

Seeing Li Qingshan's expression, Liu Ziming chuckled again, clearly understanding that the other party already knew.

The two of them had another good meal in the cafeteria, and only then were they satisfied, before returning to the library to continue reading books.

Liu Ziming's position was essentially a sinecure, so he didn't need to worry about his teaching duties. Li Qingshan hadn't received any notification yet, so he wasn't in a hurry either.

He desperately needed to find all sorts of knowledge from a large number of miscellaneous books to understand the so-called Eternal Mother and everything about the White Lotus Pure Land Sect.

just.

When Li Qingshan arrived at the library, he was shocked to find that the copy of "The Three Annals of Yuewei Caotang" that he had just read halfway through had been taken away.

After a moment's thought, Li Qingshan picked up another book, letting his fingertips trace the slightly yellowed pages as he began searching for what he needed.

In the corner, three men dressed in light green robes were indeed scrutinizing Li Qingshan with unpleasant expressions.

One of them said in a low, cold voice:

"I never expected that this person could be so patient. If it were an ordinary teacher, he would be furious to see his books taken away, but he remained so calm."

"No rush. I'll take his other book later. I bet he'll be furious then. Scholars always cherish all kinds of books, especially when they see their beloved possessions!"

Sitting at the very back, the man said coldly:

"If that still doesn't work, I, Wei Liji, will gladly give up my lifelong scholar's robes and drive this peasant out of the academy."

"What kind of person is qualified to teach at an academy? Does he really think he has such abilities just because he's read a few collections of unpopular poetry?!"

……

Li Qingshan subtly flipped through the slightly yellowed pages, while his senses instantly detected the four people who harbored deep ill intentions towards him.

"The Purification Cult? The Marquis's residence, or someone within the Tiantong Academy who wants to expel me?"

Numerous questions began to race through Li Qingshan's mind, and at that moment he stepped toward the four people.

Before the four could speak, Li Qingshan had already come to the table and waved his hand, as if shooing away flies.

"Get out of the way!"

The four men were stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage, all glaring at Li Qingshan as if they had suffered some great humiliation.

Wei Liji suddenly stood up, and fueled by his burning passion, roared at Li Qingshan:

"How dare you! You're just a peasant, what right do you have to tell us to leave?"

The others glared at him angrily, seemingly wanting to tear Li Qingshan apart.

"That's right, how dare you, a peasant, let us leave? You have an audacity!"

"Aren't you going to go out and find out who we are? How dare a mere teacher speak to us like that!"

Before the remaining man could finish speaking, he, along with the three in front of him, felt a tremendous force strike him.

Pfft!

Wei Liji, who was leading the group, felt as if he had been hit by a moving carriage. He instantly felt like a boiled shrimp, and he knelt down on the ground, clutching his stomach.

The others weren't much better off; they all looked pained and knelt on the ground.

"According to the rules of Tiantong Academy, students must respect their teachers and elders. Today's punishment is merely a reprimand. If this happens again, I will appeal to the academy and have you expelled!"

Li Qingshan waved his sleeve, sweeping the books aside, and sat down at the desk to continue reading the book in his hand.

It was as if everything that had just happened was nothing more than a little storm to him.

However, this scene instantly attracted the attention of all the students and teachers in the library.

Even Liu Ziming, the unassuming teacher, stood among the crowd, scrutinizing his newly made friend with a profound gaze.

As the crowd mingled, a man with dozens of followers strode out, his gaze icy as he looked at Li Qingshan and said coldly:

"Li Qingshan, no, Master Li, you have quite the temper! You actually hit someone in public. Do you not take us noble families seriously?"

"If one day, a student in my academy makes a slip of the tongue, wouldn't you beat them to death with sticks?"

The remaining few were also indignant, wishing they could just grab Li Qingshan and drag him out of the Sutra Pavilion.

As things escalated, they even alarmed everyone in the library.

The group sitting in the corner exchanged glances, all seeing the mockery in each other's eyes.

"How could a mere peasant possibly be on equal footing with us, let alone become our father?"

"Exactly! They haven't come to pay their respects to us yet. How dare this peasant be so arrogant? Who else should we beat up if not him?"

"Hahaha, I'd like to see how this peasant will handle things!"

……

Li Qingshan glanced coldly at the leader, without even bothering to ask his name.

Because, within the rules, this so-called leader has no grounds for argument.

"According to the academy's rules, when students seek guidance from the teacher, they must bow, be respectful, and perform all the proper etiquette."

"By questioning me like this, are you showing no respect for our teachers or the academy?"

"Or is it that in your eyes, your so-called principles have transcended etiquette and law, allowing you to disregard the regulations of the imperial court?"

Li Qingshan's words were like the cold light of the dead of winter, striking the leader directly.

Having been a top soldier in his previous life, Li Qingshan naturally received a lot of instruction and understood how to deal with moral blackmail.

They also understand how to counter-kidnapping based on the other party's identity.
