Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: Starting with a Bond to God King Tang San

Chapter 53: Is someone who doesn't dare to cause trouble mediocre?

Immediately afterwards, Deng Mu quietly told Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao about Zhou Yi's situation, so that they could prepare themselves mentally.

Upon learning about Zhou Yi's situation, Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong had an "aha!" moment, finally understanding why Zhou Yi had said those things.

The two then became obedient and listened to Zhou Yi.

As Zhou Yi spoke, she secretly observed Deng Mu, as she knew something about him.

It is said that Deng Mu is very talented, but she is not sure just how talented he is.

According to those people, Deng Mu will be promoted to the inner court in a while and will receive special training. During this period, she will be in charge of teaching Deng Mu.

Noticing that Zhou Yi was looking at him, Deng Mu felt goosebumps rise on his skin, and he had a feeling that the other person was up to no good.

Just as Deng Mu had expected, Zhou Yi asked if anyone had been fighting, but no one had.

Zhou Yi punished the entire class by making them run 100 laps, deeming them incompetent for not daring to cause trouble.

In response, Deng Mu stated that Zhou Yi was mentally ill.

The saying "A person who is afraid to cause trouble is a mediocre person" is a huge joke.

Is someone who's afraid to cause trouble incompetent?

Why didn't Zhao Wuji directly confront Tang Hao back then, but instead obediently let Tang Hao beat him up?

To put it bluntly, it's just a case of bullying the weak and fearing the strong; they're afraid to provoke those stronger than themselves.

Isn't the incident at Canghui Academy a typical example?

If they had encountered the Spirit Hall back then, especially since the leader was a Title Douluo, Ma Hongjun and his men wouldn't have dared to utter a single word.

If they had dared to cause trouble for the Spirit Hall back then, then he would have respected Ma Hongjun and his men as true heroes.

It's possible that this matter wasn't passed down, or it might have, but they don't care about it.

After all, in the Douluo Continent, strength is paramount, and being weak is a mistake.

"What kind of logic is this? We're being punished for not fighting?"

Speechless.

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao couldn't help but complain about Zhou Yi's behavior together.

Even though I already knew about Zhou Yi's situation, I still couldn't help but criticize her.

As Deng Mu passed by Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi suddenly said, "Deng Mu, you don't need to run."

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Deng Mu was somewhat puzzled and didn't quite understand Zhou Yi's behavior.

Deng Mu stood there blankly, staring at Zhou Yi, wondering to himself, "What's Zhou Yi up to? Why is she the only one who doesn't have to run?"

I couldn't figure it out no matter how much I thought about it. Could it be that Yan Shaozhe said something?

Deng Mu scratched his head, but couldn't help asking, "Teacher, why? Everyone else is running, but I'm not. That's not right. I don't want to be treated specially."

Zhou Yi frowned upon hearing this and said, "You want to run away?"

Deng Mu thought for a moment and nodded. It was only 100 laps, which would be a piece of cake for him.

You know, Wang Dong can run 100 laps with ease, and it would be even easier for him. Besides, he also wanted to help Huo Yutong, who was in a somewhat weak constitution.

Many students had a good impression of Deng Mu when they saw him running, and they obediently started running laps.

In the end, Zhou Yi agreed and respected Deng Mu's choice.

"Deng Mu, you're a true friend."

"Of course, I did it all for you."

Deng Mu chuckled and joked with Wang Dong, wanting to see how Wang Dong would react.

Upon hearing Deng Mu's words, Wang Dong's face immediately turned red, and he didn't even think about moving away from Deng Mu.

Xiao Xiao and Huo Yutong ran over, and Xiao Xiao asked Deng Mu with some confusion, "Deng Mu, what's wrong with Wang Dong?"

Deng Mu thought for a moment and replied, "I guess she needed to use the restroom, that's why she ran so fast."

He definitely wouldn't reveal what he had just joked with Wang Dong about.

If Xiao Xiao and Huo Yutong heard this, they would definitely think he was gay.

Round and round they ran, many people were panting heavily, but Zhou Yi stood aside with a stern face, showing no intention of giving in.

As Xiao Xiao ran, she whispered to Deng Mu, "Hmph, when I become powerful, let's see if she dares to punish us like this again."

Deng Mu smiled and nodded, knowing that it was just something he said in anger.

However, he was more worried about Huo Yutong, whose physical condition was poor and who could not keep up with running so many laps.

Although Huo Yutong has received a lot of nourishment during this period, she is still not fully recovered.

As Deng Mu ran, he kept an eye on Huo Yutong. Huo Yutong was in good condition and could still keep running for a while.

After running a few more laps, Huo Yutong's steps became increasingly heavy, her face turned ashen, and she swayed precariously.

Seeing this, Deng Mu quickly approached her and whispered, "Yu Tong, don't push yourself. I'll help you run slowly."

Huo Yutong shook her head stubbornly, "I...I can do it, I don't want to hold everyone back."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Even so, not long after, she still stumbled and fell forward.

Deng Mu reacted quickly and caught her.

"Thanks."

"fine."

Seeing Huo Yutong thank him, Deng Mu waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing.

After helping Huo Yutong steady, Deng Mu said seriously, "Yutong, you can't just run blindly. You have to pay attention to the rhythm. Don't take big steps. Breathe in and out with your steps. Take deep breaths and exhale slowly. Count the beats in your mind. This will save a lot of energy and allow you to last longer."

Huo Yutong listened and nodded weakly, trying to adjust herself according to Deng Mu's method.

At first, she was still struggling and her steps were still unsteady, but after a few laps, her condition actually improved a little. Although her face was still pale, she was no longer swaying precariously.

Zhou Yi, who was watching from the side, had a slight glint in her eyes. She secretly admired Deng Mu's quick thinking and helpfulness, but her face remained cold and stern, showing no sign of it.

As the students finished running, they collapsed in disarray, their complaints rising and falling.

Wang Dong leaned closer to Deng Mu and said, "You're really something, managing to look after Huo Yutong."

Deng Mu smiled and said, "We're all friends, we help each other out."

After speaking, he glanced around and saw Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu.

Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu were chatting and laughing, and did not notice Huo Yutong.

Looking at Zhu Lu, Deng Mu sighed inwardly, "The Zhu family genes are really good; none of them have bad figures."

Zhou Yi dismissed some of the students who were cheating and then led the remaining students back to the classroom for lessons.

"Deng Mu, Teacher Zhou is so strict."

Wang Dong leaned close to Deng Mu and whispered something to him.

Hearing Wang Dong's words, Deng Mu just smiled and didn't say anything.

Back in the classroom, the students were exhausted, but they dared not slack off, as Zhou Yi's stern gaze was constantly sweeping over them.

After entering the classroom, Zhou Yi began to explain some basic knowledge about martial spirit cultivation. She explained things in a simple and easy-to-understand way, and the students, who were originally a little tired, were gradually attracted and listened attentively.

At first, Wang Dong was able to stay focused and listen to the lecture, but before long, he started to doze off.

Seeing this, Deng Mu smiled helplessly.

Xiao Xiao and Huo Yutong listened attentively to Zhou Yi's lecture, taking notes from time to time.
