Chapter 241.1 – Granddaughter’s Husband? (2/2)

He was interrupted by Old Potter before he could complete his excuse. “Tianjing Academy? Isn’t Greene your Tianjing Academy’s headmaster? I’ll give him a skylink call later; I feel you don’t need to return to Tianjing. Regardless of whichever condition you bring up, our Copperfield Academy is much better than Tianjing in every way. If you feel you’re letting Tianjing Academy down, just state it clearly. Alright, I’ll just get that la.s.s, Laura, to transfer over to Tianjing and let her help your academy win that whatever compet.i.tion. This la.s.s’s mind is a bit weaker than your’s, but her fighting and killing skills will be more than enough…”

Pffft~

The only person at this moment who would dare show any signs of a headache would be Laura. Hearing Old Potter’s reb.u.t.tal here, Laura almost bit off her tongue. Really, what bewitching drug did this fellow give to grandfather!? He actually wants me to transfer!?

The most important point, however, was that… What did he mean by my mind being slightly weaker other than for fighting and killing!?

Was this really her grandpa?

Since no one dared to disturb the elder and youngster within the building, after leading the group out Calderon and the rest found some reason or another to depart early. Earlier, none of them had treated w.a.n.g Zhong with any regard, but the att.i.tude Old Potter showed was clear for all to see. It seemed they had all misjudged him. Forcibly staying would have just meant them finding fault in themselves. Most importantly, they were all very clear about the mannerisms and style of Old Potter and in the end that was all they needed in order to understand the situation.

The leftover large group of students also weren’t in the mood to fool around. In fact, most weren’t clear as to what exactly had happened. The only thing they knew was that Headmaster Schoffel had arrived, before the large crowd of ‘refined figures’ walked out with dejected and depressed expressions. This group included all of the captains and vice-captains of the various squadrons. Currently, other than Old Potter and Laura, the only one who remained inside was Tianjing Academy’s w.a.n.g Zhong.

Everyone was now grouping together in twos and threes, whispering to one another as they guessed what was happening inside. The majority of them were curious and interested, while the most excited one was Arnold Teuton.

One could say he was the only one present who understood the temper and shortcomings of Old Potter. The old man had a short fuse, and little figures wouldn’t even enter his gaze. Seemingly all members of the Potter Clan had such a temperament.

Because he stood outside, greeting guests, Arnold hadn’t been there to witness the scene. But to him there wasn’t any need to guess. The matter of w.a.n.g Zhong having peeped on Laura had definitely entered Old Potter’s ears. With the old headmaster’s temper, there was even the possibility of him devouring w.a.n.g Zhong alive! In this case, Old Potter actually possessed the ability to do so!

But such thoughts were quickly dispelled in a short period of time. If Old Potter did look for w.a.n.g Zhong because of that matter, then why did that Saxon vice-captain–the one who clearly disliked w.a.n.g Zhong–have such a black face when he walked out? Not just he, even Saxon Squadron’s captain, Paul, seemed dest.i.tute. The other squadron leaders even looked embarra.s.sed over this.

“Hey.” Arnold greeted Paul and handed him a gla.s.s of red wine. Twitching his mouth toward the large hall, he asked with a grin, “What happened in there?”

Noticing Arnold, Paul accepted the gla.s.s from him. The man was still someone he had to give face to.

It was just so close. He only had to take a step successfully into the sanctuary division and, upon getting recognition from Calderon and the others, he could establish his bloodline and expand his future paths. This was Paul’s most important goal in coming to this Copperfield special training. But now, after Headmaster Schoffel’s arrival, that Surnamed w.a.n.g stole all of the spotlight from under him, Captain Paul!

Truthfully speaking, he didn’t mind others being in the spotlight and didn’t even mind that w.a.n.g Zhong got recognized by Old Potter. ‘You walk your path, I walk mine.’ It was just that this situation made it so that all of his chances with the others disappeared.
