Chapter 476 – The Storm of Enrolling Students (V) (2/2)

These words were naturally yelled out for Bie Tianxin to hear.

By a table in that tea house, those two individuals were still seated.

”Ah, truly childish.” Mao Qiuyu gazed at the distant activity occurring in front of the Orthodox Academy, but it was up in the air whether he was talking about Tang Thirty-Six or Bie Tianxin.

He was keenly aware that Bie Tianxin's parents had extremely good relations with Daoist Siyuan and Linghai Zhiwang, similar to the relationship Zhu Luo and Guan Xingke had with the late Archbishop Mei Lisha. He was also keenly aware that though Bie Tianxin was praised by the common people as being able to calculate the hearts of men, he was ultimately just a noble son spoiled by his parents. Or else how could he have not realized before he appeared on the scene that these youths of the Orthodox Academy were not people he could offend?

”Ah, just take him away,” Mao Qiuyu said to Daoist Siyuan across from him. ”His parents originally placed him in your care. You can't just let him get into trouble in front of you.”

Daoist Siyuan's face was rather unsightly, but he remained silent. Standing up, he walked out of the tea house.

Mao Qiuyu turned once more to the Orthodox Academy, commenting, ”After so many years, his temper hasn't changed one bit. No wonder he's never been able to match up to Guan Bai.”

Bie Tianxin departed.

The Orthodox Academy obtained victory in this struggle.

In the view of many, this struggle was exceptionally childish and ridiculous, more mischievous than the mischief of children. However, to those who knew of Bie Tianxin's true identity, this childish and ridiculous struggle was an indication of many things.

The Orthodox Academy had once more proved to the capital its powerful backing and hidden strength, and that its power was fully mature. Yes, even if the power of White Emperor City represented by Princess Luoluo was set aside, with the attention of the Pope and the relationship between Chen Changsheng and Su Li, outside of a proper method like the All-School Martial Exhibition, would there be anyone that dared to suppress the Orthodox Academy through nonlegal means?

Those students who came from the provinces and counties did not know Bie Tianxin's identity at the very beginning. Upon learning of it, they couldn't help but admire Tang Thirty-Six's unyielding attitude, so much so that they almost wanted to grovel on the ground before his feet. They also had a completely new impression of the Orthodox Academy. As a result, the work of processing applications, which had momentarily slowed, became all the more intense. Those young students that had withdrawn their application attempted to take advantage of moments of inattentiveness to re-apply again, but how could they conceal themselves from Tang Thirty-Six's eyes? He drove them away without the slightest courtesy.

Chen Changsheng commented, ”Too severe.”

Tang Thirty-Six replied, ”I've never been one to rub sand into my eyes. I'm not even willing to tolerate Bie Tianxin, so why should I tolerate these guys?”

Chen Changsheng was very curious about this friend of his, inquiring, ”Have you been like this since you were small?”

Tang Thirty-Six responded very matter-of-factly, ”If the only thing behind me was the Wenshui Tang clan and I had to face these two Storms, I would naturally have to consider it. I might have even been the first to concede, but don't I have you now?”

Chen Changsheng was made speechless by this matter-of-factness. After a long period of silence, he said, ”As I said before, rudeness and cursing is bad. You must restrain it a little.”

Tang Thirty-Six arched his brows. ”What's bad about it? Isn't being straightforward good?”

Chen Changsheng replied, ”Getting angry injures the liver, and in addition, it's not good for children to hear such profanity. Quite a few people have already come to complain.”
