Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 30 - The Song Family’s Counterattack

Chapter 30: Chapter 30 The Song Family’s Counterattack

Shi Hao left the city and quickly arrived at the academy.

After entering, he noticed many people, upon seeing him, showed a look of avoidance, as if he were a great trouble.

Could it be that the incident of him striking down Yang Chao and his son yesterday had already spread?

Shi Hao didn’t care and continued on his way.

“Shi Hao!” He hadn’t walked far when he was called by a senior brother from the Earth Institute, nearly twenty years old.

“Hmm?” Shi Hao looked over.

What a good-looking face!

The senior brother couldn’t help but sigh in his heart, then hurriedly said, “Principal Yu is looking for you!”

Starwind Academy had a total of four principals, one main principal who usually didn’t do much, and then three vice principals in charge of the Heaven, Earth, and People Character Courtyards, with the vice principal of the People Character Courtyard being Yu Xi.

Having the title of “vice” didn’t sound good, so aside from the main principal who was still called “principal,” the titles of the three vice principals were prefixed with their surnames, omitting the “vice.” This way, it wouldn’t cause confusion and could make the three vice principals happy.

Shi Hao thought for a moment; he had to register anyway, it was on the way.

In the academy, each teacher had their own independent residence, and for a “bigwig” like Yu Xi, the residence was naturally even larger and more luxurious, complete with a pond and a rockery, very serene and quiet.

However, now was working hours, and Yu Xi wasn’t at his residence but in the academy’s office building.

As Shi Hao approached the building, two guards at the door immediately sneered as if to say, you’re in for it now.

“Come in!” one of them said.

Shi Hao didn’t mind and walked in with long strides.

Oh, is this a tribunal?

Shi Hao saw that it wasn’t just Yu Xi sitting there; there was also Ni Wenxing, the vice principal of the Heaven Character Courtyard, and Sheng Ze Xue, the vice principal of the Earth Character Courtyard, along with two middle-aged men with strong presences, also sitting in high chairs.

Besides them, there were quite a few students present, but they didn’t have the privilege to sit, instead standing in a uniform manner.

“Monstrous child, kneel now!” Yu Xi immediately shouted loudly.

Shi Hao looked over, “What crime have I committed that warrants kneeling?

“Impudent!” Yu Xi was furious. He was the head of the People Character Courtyard, and his words were commands not to be defied. Now, a mere student was questioning his authority in front of so many people, how could he not be angry?

Shi Hao picked at his ears, “I’m here to register for the selection competition for the martial contest in the Imperial Capital.”

For a moment, the whole room was silent.

Are you out of your mind?

Thinking they set up such a grand stage for you to come here just for mere fun?

“You!” Yu Xi felt like he was about to explode, thinking that although Shi Hao used to be somewhat arrogant due to his talent, talented individuals always are, but now, that was just blatant insolence.

“You publicly assaulted a fellow student, even breaking Song Tianming’s legs. Do you really think the academy would stand by, letting you commit violence unchecked?”

Shi Hao suddenly realized, his gaze sweeping over the two unfamiliar middle-aged men sitting there, “These two are from the Song Family, right? Haha, since when can the Song Family interfere with the academy’s affairs?”

“Nonsense, you’ve hurt Tianming, as the aggrieved party, can’t we come over?” said one of the Song Family men. His name was Song Yang, and the other was Song Changtai, both high-level martial disciples.

“Alright, what do you want?” Shi Hao asked languidly, not minding hearing them out.

“What we want is not for you to decide!” Song Changtai said indifferently, then looked towards Yu Xi, “Principal Yu?”

Yu Xi nodded, “For fostering evil and committing violence, according to the academy’s rules, you should be whipped two hundred times, then expelled and cut from any further relations with this academy!”

Song Yang smiled, then added, “Since you’re no longer a disciple of the academy, a mere commoner daring to harm someone from the Song Family should be executed by dismemberment, and hanged at the city gates as a warning to others!”

How vicious!

Although Song Tianming’s legs were indeed broken, to kill a man and then to humiliate his corpse is truly excessive.

But who made this the Song Family?

A true noble family, if they do not make an example out of someone, wouldn’t that make others think the Song Family is easy to bully?

Why are there so many students here?

It is to let everyone see that this is the consequence of offending the Song Family.

-Mengyang City belongs to the Five Great Noble Families, nobody can affront such authority!

“Furthermore, Tianming insists on killing you with his own hands,” Song Changtai said with a smile, “You, a mere lowlife, to be killed by a direct descendant of the Song Family, you should die without any regrets.”

In his eyes, having Song Tianming personally kill a lowlife was an act that actually lowered his status.

Just like a young master personally going to the kitchen to kill a chicken, it’s disgraceful.

Shi Hao listened, nodding his head. “Out of consideration for our past as schoolmates, I originally intended to spare Song Tianming’s life, but since he insists on seeking death, I will have no choice but to oblige him.”

“Haha!” Both Song Yang and Song Changtai laughed heartily. This kid is really naïve, and still unrepentant in the face of death. Even now, he’s still thinking about killing Tianming?

“Pay no attention to such an insignificant person.”

“Just pronounce the sentence. We still need to take him back to the Song Family.”

The two urged, what was their status, after all, to bother arguing with a nobody?

Yu Xi nodded his head, “Shi Hao, I now pronounce that you are expelled!”

“Guards, carry out the punishment with rods!”

Immediately, a tall and burly middle-aged man stepped forward, holding a seven-foot-long iron rod in his hand, with grooved patterns on it. To be hit by this thing, the skin would surely burst and flesh would split.

“Kneel down!” Yu Xi commanded, seeing that Shi Hao remained unmoved, he gave a signal to the middle-aged man with his eyes.

Understanding the cue, the man immediately swung the iron rod towards Shi Hao’s back.

The strength of the man combined with the weight of the iron rod and the speed of the swing meant that with a solid hit, it would be normal for Shi Hao to break a few bones.

Strangely, though, it seemed like Shi Hao had not noticed the rod approaching.

After all, he’s just a youth, lacking experience.

That’s what everyone thought to themselves, not finding it odd in the least.

Bang!

The rod struck Shi Hao’s body, emitting a muffled sound, yet Shi Hao’s body was like an iron pillar, firmly grounded, not moving an inch.

On the contrary, under the recoil of the force, the middle-aged man’s palms split open, gushing blood.

What!

Everyone’s eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets, are you a monster or what?

That rod’s strike was so terrifying, even a high-level martial disciple would have coughed up blood.

The middle-aged man was stunned, subconsciously lifting the iron rod again, intending to take another swing.

Shi Hao turned his head sharply and looked over, “Seeking death?”

That gaze was fierce, like a ferocious beast!

The middle-aged man was alarmed, the rod in his hand dropping down, landing heavily on his foot, and he screamed out in pain.

Shi Hao reached out and caught the iron rod, now in his hand.

He weighed it in his hand, while his eyes swept toward Yu Xi and the others. “It seems some people need a good lesson.”
