Thinking of this, You Xian's eyes became more determined as he looked at the students below. He already had a complete plan in his mind.

"In order to prevent those who have colluded with the Dark Duelists from escaping, we must act immediately."

"But I also hope that everyone can promise me one thing, something that will live up to the cause of justice."

"It's impossible for all of Byron Kinworth to be in collusion with the Dark Duelists, because they are completely different from the highly centralized Kate family."

"So we must speak according to the evidence. Justice can only judge those who are truly guilty, and we must not let the innocent suffer unjust accusations."

You Xian lowered his head, looking serious as if he was praying for the 'innocent people' implicated.

About a minute later, he raised his head again, raised his hands under the light of the night sky, and continued passionately:

"But please rest assured that I, Aleister, will never give up my plan just because the person colluding with the Dark Duelist is some big shot who you cannot afford to offend, even if that person is the chairman of the academy."

"Because justice will never escape from the battlefield!"

You Xian's speech was not fancy nor lengthy, but the students present were moved by his simple words.

"We believe you, Mr. Aleister!"

"Come on! Mr. Aleister! Our justice will surely come!"

"Under the leadership of Mr. Aleister, we will surely destroy all the dark duelists who want to harm us!"

"If those old rotten guys in high positions are unable to protect us and the safety of Synchronicity Academy, then let us act on our own!"

These passionate young people shouted various slogans one after another downstairs, making the area as lively as daytime.

Although the voices were a bit chaotic because no one was organizing them, everyone's words were sincere and without any falsehood.

However, as these words were shouted, they began to change in a strange direction.

They began to shift from "declaring justice" to condemning those in power, and finally began to lean towards the direction of "plotting to usurp the throne."

"Those old guys no longer have any meaning to exist. It's better to let capable people take those positions."

"I support Mr. Aleister or Ms. Sophia to take the position of chairman! They are the ones who truly care about the Synchronicity Academy."

"Get rid of those guys who are just sitting there doing nothing! Synchronicity Academy needs a leader who truly cares about the students!"

You Xian didn't know whether there was anyone guiding them, but it was clear that these students' thoughts were inevitably developing in that direction.

The resentment and anger towards the faculty and staff is now rapidly expanding, and the dark duelists standing behind the investigation team and surrounding them have also made these students lack trust in those in high positions.

This is not just the result of an abnormal accidental death, but more of a long-term accumulated contradiction. This incident is at most just a fuse.

Unfortunately, You Xian couldn't possibly follow the students' impulse to get gold coins from the old guy in the Synchrony Academy.

He might be able to do this with his ability, but what about after he gets that position? Revealing his true identity?

Or would he wear Aleister's mask forever, completely entangle it with his own face, kill 'Youxian', and spend his whole life in the Synchronicity Academy?

No matter which one it is, You Xian cannot choose. After all, he is just a passer-by in the Synchronic Academy.

To die 'gloriously' in front of the people of the Synchronicity Academy, perhaps this is the best ending for 'Aleister'.

So You Xian could only speak again in front of the enthusiastic students:

"Everyone please calm down. Our top priority is to deal with the Dark Duelist. The rest can wait until later."

"I have discovered part of the plan of these dark duelists in the academy. It is very likely to lead to a huge disaster. We must stop them!"

"Besides, the commotion we caused today was quite big. If we delay any further, those people will most likely be on their guard."

"So... let's go, everyone! It's time to take back the justice and fairness that belongs to us from these people!"

Having said that, You Xian turned his head and glanced at the investigators waiting not far away, and nodded to them:

"set off!"

"Yes, Master Aleister!"

For some reason, the investigation team seemed a little moved and gave You Xian a very standard salute.

==================Dividing line==================

The shadow of the tall building covered the ground, and the street below was illuminated by dim street lights. The quiet and slightly cool night breeze blew gently, carrying the faint noise of the street, as if a layer of subtle melancholy permeated the quietness of the night.

The glass curtain wall reflects the starlight, like a giant twinkling gem. On the street downstairs, pedestrians hurried by, leaving behind a series of faint footsteps that blend into the silence of the night.

Just then, a chaotic but powerful sound of footsteps came from afar, breaking the tranquility of the night.

At the same time, the originally scattered lights on the high-rise buildings began to spread rapidly as if in response to the footsteps, and soon the entire building was lit up, looking like an unscrupulous unit that was still crowded with overtime workers in the middle of the night.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, even causing the entire ground to tremble slightly, as if it was about to succumb to their power.

Soon, this 'troop' consisting of students and dark duelists stopped in front of the building.

As if to welcome them, the real leader of this academy also appeared on the rooftop.

"Welcome, but what do you want to do by coming to me so late at night?"

However, before he could say anything more, the more radical students in the crowd pointed at him and yelled, "Old man, are you worthy enough to speak over Mr. Aleister's head?"

"That's right, get off now."

"I advise you to hand over your bunch of heartless and rubbish relatives as soon as possible. It's ridiculous for a chairman to be surrounded by dark duelists."

"I advise you to just get out of your position. Aren't Mr. Aleister and Ms. Sophia more competent than you? What else can you do except to smooth things over and waste resources?"

"..."

The chairman of the Synchronicity Academy was silent.

Chapter 155: Doubts about You Xian and a Head-on Conflict

In the silence of this snowy night, everything is shrouded in the cold wind and snow. The cold wind blows fiercely, and snowflakes fall all over the sky, like sad memories, slowly unfolding in the dark night.

The lights of the high-rise buildings flickered alone in the night like a lonely beacon. The pedestrians on the street hurried by, tightly wrapped in thick winter clothes, and their lonely figures disappeared in the snow, leaving behind only a faint loneliness and desolation.

The decorations on the shop windows seemed a little powerless, intertwined with the snowflakes, like lost hope, vague and distant.

On this snowy night, students continued to denounce the chairman of the Synchronicity Academy.

Their voices merged into the cold wind of the night sky, echoing around and constantly scolding the short old man on the rooftop.

As for the students' questioning, You Xian did not interfere too much. He just hid calmly in the crowd and watched the scene coldly.

He didn't want to stop it, nor did he have the ability to stop it.

Because this was resentment accumulated by the students of Synchronicity Academy over the years, You Xian had no reason to interfere with them.

If he tried to intervene in the matter forcefully, it would only make it more complicated and might even cause the students to doubt his position, which was obviously unacceptable to You Xian.

After gaining the power of the masses, one naturally cannot betray the masses, otherwise it will only bring backlash.

He actually didn't care much about how the chairman of the Synchrony Academy was treated. After all, his goal was to strengthen the seal of the dragon, not to help the Synchrony Academy carry out a purge.

It doesn’t matter whether this old guy who slacks off every day will fall down from his position.

However, as the chairman of the academy, this old man would probably be furious if he was forced to step down by the students of the academy.

Just like a tyrant whose palace is besieged, they will not reflect on their mistakes at the first moment.

Just like the joke from the para club:

"I have raised taxes to 95%, and you are still able to organize a rebellious army. This means you must have stolen my taxes, you shameless thieves!"

However, contrary to You Xian's expectations, the chairman did not show any anger in the face of the students' insults. He still looked so calm, as if the insults from the students below were just ordinary noise.

"..."

There was silence for a long time. The man standing in the snowy night waited until the noise below became much quieter before he gently exhaled a puff of mist.

Then he bowed deeply to all the students present.

"I'm so sorry, guys."

"Although it is not my direct fault that the Synchronicity Academy has become what it is now, my inaction is indeed one of the important factors."

Oh? What's going on here?

Since it was night and the chairman was at a sufficient distance from the students, it was impossible for anyone except an outlier like You Xian to see the man's expression clearly. So if this was an act, the chairman would not have needed to control his expression at all.

Unless he has enough "professionalism" like You Xian, he has to perform the whole set every time he acts.

So, this guy is serious?

You Xian, holding a blue book in his arms, raised his eyebrows and looked at the man on the rooftop with a guilty look on his face.

Except for You Xian himself, all the students present were confused by this sudden development.

What's going on? I thought he was the big boss, but he surrendered right after I attacked him, right?

Isn't this just like participating in a store tournament for a limited prize, thinking that you have to go through a lot of difficulties to get the prize, but when you get to the scene, you find that everyone has gone to play ptcg, so it's almost like you have won the prize.

Byron Kinworth did not stop talking because of the silence of the students. He continued to tell his "crimes" in that low voice.

"Byron Kingworth has become corrupted. It has completely transformed into something else without my noticing. My neglect and inaction have further accelerated its deterioration."

"I am an incompetent chairman, and I am not a qualified teacher. Perhaps even Shenghua's chairman is more suitable for the position than me. At least he did not abandon Shenghua when he encountered it."

But it’s okay, this can be named, right?

Relying on the ice resistance buff brought to him by the mermaid girls, Youxian comfortably stroked the snowflakes falling on his palm while continuing to listen to the man's monologue.

"Unfortunately, now everything can't be repeated. What lies before us is this devastated Synchronicity Academy."

"As punishment and atonement, I am willing to resign from the position of chairman and hand it over to someone who is truly suitable. The Synchronicity Academy has been in chaos for too long, and someone must step up to take charge of the situation."

"I think everyone has already got the answer as to who should be selected."

"But... before that there's one more thing I need to do."

When the man said this, he paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something or hesitating about something.

"I am responsible for Byron Kingworth's corruption, and even I didn't expect them to be in league with the Dark Duelists."

"So, I have to complete my last job as the chairman, which is to clean out the people in Byron Kingworth, eliminate the innocent ones among them, and then execute the rest."

"Only by completely eliminating the Dark Duelists in the academy can we ensure everyone's safety, and only then can the Synchro Academy continue to move forward."

"In order to do that, I need the power of the chairman."

"Once this matter is over, I will step down from this position and become an ordinary duelist."

"..."

You Xian, hiding in the crowd, watched the scene with narrowed eyes.

Judging from the existing intelligence, there is indeed no evidence or signs that this old guy is colluding with the Shining Assembly, but You Xian is still a little concerned about his actions.

Judging from what he said, he is determined to clean up the mess.

But after clearing the door, wouldn't it be his own death if he stepped down from the position of chairman?

Grudges will not be wiped out simply by abdication. After losing power and status, there will be more and more enemies coming to cause trouble.

So could this so-called house cleaning be a cover-up to allow him to shield Byron Kinworth's people in disguise?

Or maybe he has already found a way out for himself, to make himself disappear?

And would those Byron Kinworths who colluded with the Dark Duelists really be willing to be eliminated so easily?

Looking at the old man lying in the snow high up, You Xian fell into deep thought.

At this time, the old but firm voice came from the rooftop again.

"However, before I became the chairman, I was still a duelist. Although you have recognized the identities and status of certain people, as a duelist, I cannot easily hand over this position to others."

"Aleister, I believe you are here in person. If you want it, come and get it yourself. You already know the rules."

"So, come out and fight me now."

Emmm, but I don’t want it.

You Xian's expression became more and more subtle. This development seemed more and more strange.

If we look at it from a conspiracy perspective, it seems like he is the mastermind behind all this, first causing chaos in the academy and then coming out to act as a good guy, and now he is deliberately instigating those students behind the scenes to go with him to the chairman to force him out.

And now it’s halfway done?

This time, not only You Xian himself was involved, but even Sophia who was still in a coma was also involved. If Sophia was awake at this time, the chairman might have invited Sophia as well.

An invitation has been sent to the leader of the Dark Duelists.
