Chapter 133: Challenge

  Wait! A loud and clear voice of a man echoed from afar, not far away. Turning back to look, I saw Mr. Wei walking towards me with a calm face.

  "Wow, it's Teacher Wei, what brings him to Feng?"

  "Hey, didn't you guys see Wei teacher's expression? He's pretending to be calm, I guarantee it! He must be jealous of Qin teacher!"

  "Right, hey, now this is going to be interesting!"

  "You guys said Qin teacher won't be his opponent, right? Wei teacher is a provincial level 8th rank expert after all!"

  "I don't think so, if Teacher Qin is mediocre, how could the Emperor possibly hold him in such high regard?"

  "Teacher Wei is getting shameless, he's already over thirty years old, and Teacher Qin will be thirty soon, they must have already reached the Heavenly level!" Wei Qiang listened to the whispers of these talented students in the crowd, his face gradually becoming uglier. However, he didn't care, he just couldn't stand this so-called youngest marquis of Qinglong Country, looking at his face made him angry! He wished he could go up and trample him a few times!

  Qin Liwang was about to get on the bus when he heard this and stopped in his tracks. Even Zhao Xuanxuan, who had already boarded the bus, couldn't help but open the door and look at Wei Qiang, a teacher from the Advanced Academy with some reputation and a title of Earl, wondering what he wanted to do.

  "Who are you?" Qin Li looked at the person who walked in front of him, scrutinizing him with a discerning gaze. A young man in his thirties, he couldn't recall where he had seen this person before or if he had offended him, but he could sense that this person was likely a high-ranking scholar's teacher. Was he here to cause trouble for him?

  "I am Earl Crazy Thunder Wei Qiang! Also a senior lecturer at the academy, I heard that your strength is not bad, I want to challenge you, how about it, Teacher Qin Li, do you dare to accept the challenge?"

  Wei Qiang's words came out, and the surroundings suddenly became very quiet. Many students looked at Wei Qiang in disbelief, although this teacher usually had a bad reputation on campus, his mouth was always poisonous when speaking, but it wasn't to the point of provoking someone who was nearly half his age and one level lower than him in strength?

  Is he crazy? The princess has clearly shown goodwill to Teacher Qin, what are you doing? You come to challenge, aren't you afraid of losing face?

  Qin Li was also speechless for a moment, to be honest, he had already anticipated that coming to this college as a teacher would not be without controversy, after all, he was too young.

  Originally, Qin Li thought that the most difficult ones would be the students, but unexpectedly, these students actually admired him so much. In fact, it's not hard to imagine, geniuses are always lonely, geniuses are always proud, and people who can make them sincerely convinced are really rare! And Qin Li's age, strength, as well as what he had done, happened to meet the hearts of these young people who were also teenagers. His strength was far beyond that of his peers, the gap was too big!

  So, the original jealousy directly turned into admiration!

  The one who was actually jealous of him and came to pick a fight, surprisingly, was a teacher with the same identity as his, Qin Li thought it was somewhat ridiculous. He glanced at Wei Qiang lightly and said: "Why should I accept your challenge? I don't know you, nor do I have any grudges against you. Don't you think that what you're doing is a bit inappropriate?"

  A burst of laughter suddenly spread through the crowd, and many students looked at Wei Qiang with ridicule, thinking that this vicious-mouthed guy had finally met his match.

  Wei Qiang's face turned red and white as he looked at Qin Li, saying: "In the Advanced Academy, there has always been an unwritten rule that martial artists challenging each other is something to be accepted! Only cowards wouldn't dare accept someone else's challenge! I don't want to say anything else, Duke Qin Li, I just ask you, do you accept or not?!

  Qin Li's face gradually turned cold, and he said indifferently: "Since it's an unwritten rule, then it's not a rule! Whether I'm a coward or not is not something that someone like you, who's stuck in a well, can evaluate. You're not even qualified to challenge me!"

  "Good!"

  In the crowd, a girl suddenly spoke out, her voice was very clear and crisp, and immediately another burst of loud laughter erupted.

  Wei Qiang finally couldn't bear the anger in his heart and rushed towards Qin Li, sneering: "I thought the Empire had produced another extraordinary genius, but it turned out to be a useless embroidered pillow! I'm not worthy? The strength I have is something I cultivated with my life on the line! The title of Earl on me was personally conferred by the Emperor! Am I a frog in a well? I've hunted countless high-level spiritual beasts! What are you, daring to speak so loudly in front of me?! Qin Li, I'm not afraid to tell you straight out, it's just that I don't like the look of you!"

  This can no longer be considered provocative, it should be considered a direct personal attack. Many students also looked at Wei Qiang's excited face with some incredulity. At this time, someone suddenly saw Teacher Yi Cong standing quietly on the side, and many people suddenly realized. Although these students spent most of their time cultivating, they almost all came from wealthy families, so how could they not know about Wei Qiang pursuing Teacher Yi Cong?

  Emotions are about showing off heroism in front of the woman you like!

  "Are you done?" Qin Li looked at Wei Qiang with a bland expression, as if looking at an idiot.

  Wei, that's it. He didn't expect such a thin-skinned remark to come out of his mouth, and yet he was met with tears, a string of connected dots, and an expression that was anything but the furious response he had imagined.

  "That's all, you can leave now, oh. No, it's me who can leave now?" Qin Li turned around and prepared to get on the horse carriage. In comparison, this little princess of the imperial family was much more lovely, quietly sitting in the carriage waiting for him.

  "You, you coward! You don't deserve the title of Marquis! You're even less deserving to be a mentor at this prestigious academy! What qualifications do you have?"

  Wei Qiang's words had not finished, when he saw Qin Li's body, which was seven or eight meters away from him and with his back to him, suddenly disappear on the spot. Instinctively feeling that something was wrong, before he could make a defensive move, he felt a burning sensation spreading across his face.

  Bright!

  Qin Li slapped Wei Qiang with a swift and fierce movement!

  Then he threw down a sentence: "Lose face in public!" and turned around and left!

  At this time, the students who were watching in a circle finally reacted and suddenly let out a shout of surprise. They thought they had benefited from Wei Qiang's good fortune and had witnessed the true abilities of this young marquis!

  "Too fast! It's really too fast! Unbelievable, Qin teacher, does he really only have the strength of a seventh-level Earth Realm cultivator?"

  "Teacher Wei didn't even have time to react, it's truly unbelievable!"

  "Hum, Teacher Qin is a sneak attacker." Finally, a different voice emerged from the crowd. It was a male student.

  "Sneak attack my ass! You go try to sneak attack someone and see if Teacher Wei won't kick you flying! Teacher Wei's strength is not weak, same as Teacher Liang Luo, both are eighth rank of the earth level! And Teacher Wei is only in his thirties!"

  "It's just that, it's clear that Teacher Wei didn't even have time to defend himself!"

  "Teacher Qin, I must go listen to your class!" A girl shouted loudly.

  Qin Li carried his body on his back, waved his hand and continued walking towards the horse cart.

  Wei Qiang's eyes blazed with a fierce anger, his chest heaving violently as he suddenly let out a thunderous roar: "Qin Li, you dare to launch a sneak attack on me! I'll kill you!"

  With a loud clang, Wei Qiang's sword flashed out of its scabbard, and his entire body erupted with an astonishing aura. The surrounding students, mostly at the Xuan level, couldn't withstand this pressure and retreated in droves. Stepping forward, standing by the window on the third floor, gazing down, a cold smile spread across his face as he thought to himself: things are going even smoother than I expected. This Qin Li's first day at school has already caused such a huge commotion. Wei Qiang, this arrogant person, has finally done something right for once. Next time, I'll have to reward him handsomely!

  "Master Wei, stop!" Liang Luo, also a level 8 cultivator, shouted from afar, without any intention of intervening. Instead, he added fuel to the fire, saying: "He's a marquis favored by the emperor, if you beat him up, you'll be in trouble!"

  Yi Ning gazed coldly at Liang Luo from the other side, silently cursing: Despicable person!

  At this time, the little princess Zhao Xiangxiang in the carriage said coldly: "Teacher Wei Qiang, I will report everything that happened today to my father honestly, and I believe he will make a fair decision. However, personally, I think you are no longer suitable to be a lecturer at the Advanced Academy."

  Wei Qiang was taken aback, not expecting the little princess to be so protective of Qin Li. His anger intensified, and he shouted loudly: "I am also a noble! And I challenged him! He dared to insult me, as a noble, I have the right to retaliate! Moreover, Your Highness, in this academy, your identity is just that of a student, you don't have the qualifications to teach me! Qin Li, you're going to die!" Wei Qiang's furious roar echoed through the air as he suddenly sprang up from his seat, towering over Qin Li.

  At this time, Wei Qiang had no way out. As a proud person to the extreme, he absolutely did not allow anyone to hurt his self-esteem, and coincidentally, Little Princess Zhao Yuyue's words severely hurt his self-esteem.

  For a person who has reached the 8th rank of martial arts at the age of thirty, it is absolutely considered a genius warrior. Wei Qiang was not afraid that his words would truly anger the emperor and even take revenge on him, because if that were the case, no one would dare to come and surrender to the Qinglong Imperial Family again!

  Wei Qiang's sword "had no mercy", fiercely chopping towards Qin Li who had already turned around, with a cold smile on his face.

  The sword energy is extremely cold!

  Obviously, Wei Qiang's combat skills are also attributed, and they are very rare ice-attribute combat skills!

  The cold smile at the corner of Qin's mouth drove Wei Qiang even crazier.

  "Die!"

  Wei Qiang let out a loud roar, and the air around him seemed to solidify, the power of a ground-level warrior was truly not to be underestimated.

  At this time, several ghostly figures quickly approached Qin Li's carriage and tightly guarded it. These were the princess's guards who were normally invisible to everyone.

  Bang!

  A loud and dull thud, and Wei Qiang's body was like a kite with its string cut off, violently thrown backwards.
