I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 8 I mean everyone here is trash

Desperate to salvage his promising future, Sha Lixin clearly had no intention of letting the matter rest. He strode menacingly towards Ye Qingzhou, adopting a predatory stance: "So, you're the one who injured my student?"

Although he was mediocre in talent and had a terrible character, Sha Lixin was, after all, a genuine professional martial artist. His physique was so strong that he could be described as an upright humanoid rhinoceros. He could smash a cement wall with one punch and sweep a wooden stake as thick as a bowl with one kick. He didn't even need to bring tools to demolish houses; he could do it all with his hands.

Just by getting close, Ye Qingzhou could feel the surging blood and qi within Sha Lixin's body, as well as his muscles as hard as steel, and a powerful sense of strength rushed towards him.

Ye Qingzhou, relying on his keen intuition, instantly estimated the gap between himself and Sha Lixin: "Another professional-level martial artist. Although his strength is three points weaker than Xu Lan and Lei Ying, he is definitely much stronger than me now. If we were to face him head-on, my chances of winning would be less than 30%."

Zhu Hanwen wasn't a martial artist, but he still stepped forward, shielding Ye Qingzhou behind his student and saying, "Sha Lixin, don't do anything rash! This is a school!"

"Why are you so nervous? I just wanted to ask him a couple of questions, is that so wrong?"

Sha Lixin appeared aggressive, but he was actually quite tactful. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to scare Ye Qingzhou and help He Weifang get revenge.

He definitely wouldn't dare to actually make a move. Martial artists who attack non-martial artists, unless it's for self-defense or to stop a crime, will have their licenses revoked by the martial arts association or even be imprisoned.

"Tell me, did you injure my student?!"

Suddenly, Sha Lixin let out a loud shout, which was like a tiger roaring through a thousand mountains. He had secretly used a martial arts internal energy technique to vibrate his internal organs and resonate his dantian energy to make a sound attack, trying to break Ye Qingzhou's courage and defeat his spirit.

Lei Ying, listening from the side, frowned slightly, her contempt for Sha Lixin growing even stronger: 'To use Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound on a student, with such a mindset, no wonder he's been stuck at the first level of martial arts after ten years of exams.'

Just when she thought Ye Qingzhou had lost his composure after being yelled at by Sha Lixin and was about to step in to save the day, Ye Qingzhou spoke calmly.

"Teacher Sha, right? Speak properly, why are you yelling so loudly? Does it mean whoever shouts the loudest is right?"

Ye Qingzhou stood there expressionless, clearly unaffected by Sha Lixin's sonic attack: "I'll emphasize again, I didn't fight with He Weifang. He insisted on asking me for martial arts advice, and I only gave him some pointers out of consideration for our friendship. I didn't even ask him for any payment. Have some conscience! Taking advantage of someone else is one thing, but now you want to report me? Is that something a human being would do?"

"You're clearly making excuses and dithering!"

"What are you trying to argue about?"

"You keep saying you didn't hit He Weifang, so how did he get injured?"

"Teacher Sha, what you're saying makes no sense. How could a peerless genius like me lower myself to fight with trash? If you keep this up, I'm going to sue you for defamation."

Sha Lixin was furious when he heard this. He had taught hundreds or even thousands of students, and he had never seen anyone as arrogant as Ye Qingzhou.

"He Weifang is my student, how dare you call him trash!"

"Hey, Ms. Sha, don't misunderstand, I wasn't targeting him..."

Ye Qingzhou smiled, his gaze sweeping over the physical education students behind Sha Lixin, and said sincerely, "What I mean is, your students are all trash."

Hearing Ye Qingzhou's words, Sha Lixin was furious. His already muscular face became even more ferocious: "You're asking for death!"

Just as Sha Lixin was about to attack Ye Qingzhou, unable to contain his anger, Lei Ying shouted, "Enough!"

She flashed in front of Ye Qingzhou, her graceful figure radiating powerful energy like a surging river.

At this moment, Lei Ying's face was displeased, her beautiful eyes filled with reproach: "Teacher Sha, this is the infirmary, not a martial arts arena. And have you thought about the consequences of making a move? The rules of the Martial Arts Association are not just for show."

Blocked by Lei Ying, Sha Lixin finally regained his senses, but he still couldn't swallow his anger, his tiger eyes still holding a hint of rage: "Ye Qingzhou, is it? I'll remember you."

Seeing that Sha Lixin hadn't made a move, Ye Qingzhou secretly regretted it, thinking, "I thought I'd have a chance to test the mettle of Blue Star's professional martial artists."

From the very beginning, he was deliberately provoking Shalixin to provoke him into attacking him.

The skill level of professional martial artists on Blue Star is roughly equivalent to that of martial artists at the Transformation Realm on Earth, but their physical attributes are superior in every way. Their strength is probably several times greater than that of Earth's Gang Realm masters. They are essentially a scaled-down version of the Homelander. Even Ye Qingzhou is not confident of victory.

There's no way around it; even the most powerful expert in internal energy cultivation can't defeat an adult Asian elephant with the intelligence of a four-year-old human child with their bare hands. After all, the difference in strength between the two is too great. This is a case of overwhelming force.

After Sha Lixin left with He Weifang and the others, the homeroom teacher finally realized what had happened. He quickly thanked Lei Ying, and then on the way back, he glared fiercely at Ye Qingzhou: "You really know how to cause trouble for me. If it weren't for Teacher Lei stopping you just now, you would be dead, you know that? Although Sha Lixin's character isn't great, he is a genuine professional martial artist."

Ye Qingzhou agreed with Zhu Hanwen's assessment and nodded in deep agreement, saying, "Although Teacher Sha's talent is mediocre, he is indeed better than me right now. But don't worry, teacher, I had everything planned out."

"Hmm? What have you planned?"

"In my plan, at most I'd get a beating and some minor injuries from fighting with Teacher Sha. With Teacher Lei around, I'm definitely not in any danger, so the process and the outcome are both controllable, and everything is under my control."

Ye Qingzhou looked serious, as if he had everything under control.

After hearing this, Zhu Hanwen felt like he wanted to die.

What's going on with this student?

Could it be that the pressure of studying is too great, leading to mental health issues?

I'm just an ordinary high school homeroom teacher; I can't cure mental illness!

Forget it, we can't afford to offend this ancestor. We'll just have to treat him like royalty from now on.

Back in the classroom, Ye Qingzhou had barely sat down when Huang Liwen poked his head in and said, "You pig-headed Ye, didn't the teacher chop you into pieces?"

"No, Mr. Zhu's tone was indeed a bit harsh at first, but on the way back he understood the truth of the matter, so he spoke to me in a gentle and soft voice, and even asked me how I was doing. He is such a good teacher who cares about his students. I have the utmost respect for him."

"???"

Huang Liwen was completely bewildered, his confused eyes filled with doubt: "Our teacher spoke so softly? That's impossible. He's notoriously short-tempered at our school, nicknamed 'Zhu the Great Villain.' Any student who makes a mistake, regardless of gender, will be severely criticized by him. You even beat He Weifang so badly he ended up in the infirmary, and he didn't give you a thorough dressing-down?"

"You people just believe everything you hear. You must have formed a stereotype in your minds beforehand. I think Teacher Zhu is a very kind and approachable person. How could she be so vicious? Don't just spout nonsense..."

Just as Ye Qingzhou was standing up for their homeroom teacher Zhu Hanwen, two students who were chasing and playing around in the corridor were caught red-handed by Zhu Hanwen.

Then came a loud, forceful reprimand that echoed throughout the floor: "What's wrong with you two? Don't you know you can't fool around in the hallway? What if you bump into someone? Write me a 100-word self-criticism right now!"

Huang Liwen looked at Ye Qingzhou speechlessly: "Is this what you call kind, gentle, and soft-spoken?"

Ye Qingzhou: "..."
