Chapter 47 - Stripped Of His Echelon Title
Chapter 47: Stripped Of His Echelon Title
Shen Fei frowned.
Luo Jin was really despicable. According to the rules of duels between Beastmasters, a fight between spirit beasts could not directly affect the Beastmasters.
If someone died, it would be judged by the judicial court in the city. Not only that, Shen Fei would be stripped of his Beastmaster qualifications.
However, Beastmasters who dared to do what Luo Jin was doing would generally be looked down upon by others.
Luo Jin licked his dry lips. The waves of heat in front of him were becoming stronger and stronger, and it seemed that the Flame Owl would be in front of him soon.
But he could not back down! In order to protect his spirit beast, even if he were spurned for the rest of his life, this was his only option left.
Shen Fei’s mouth twitched.
Luo Jin would actually resort to using such a detestable move. However, this could be counted as admitting defeat before him. Either way, it was just a ranking, and there was no need to kill anyone. It was enough to let the Flame Owl scare him.
Since this match was being broadcast live, the Luo family would most probably never be able to lift their heads in front of the other families for the rest of their lives.
…
The principal’s face was completely black at this moment. He gripped the armrest, and with a little force, it was crushed to pieces.
The teachers in their academy had always been cautious and conscientious. Although some of the students he taught were unruly, they definitely would not take the honor of a Beastmaster lightly!
One had to know that Luo Jin’s actions had been witnessed by the entire city, and perhaps even more! If those from other academies saw their Second Echelon student doing such a thing, they would probably laugh their heads off!
‘He sure thinks highly of himself…’
As the principal, he could not escape the blame, either. The principal suddenly stood up from his seat and glared at Luo Jin.
“Enough, are you done yet? Hurry up and get out of the way! Let the match continue!”
However, Luo Jin shook his head vigorously and stood firm. No matter what, he did not dare move away from his Ocean Mirage.
“You’re not going to move? Fine!” The principal’s eyes flashed with ferocity. “I declare Shen Fei the winner of this match! Shen Fei, have your spirit beast retreat first. I have something to tell you later.”
Shen Fei silently nodded his head. He waved his hand and the Flame Owl, after dispersing the heat from its body, obediently landed on his shoulder, rubbing against him obediently.
Shen Fei stroked the Flame Owl’s feathers and felt a burst of joy in his heart. Looking at the principal’s angry face, Luo Jin might not be able to escape a scolding today.
“The camera over there can stop.”
After turning off the camera, the principal walked to Luo Jin in quick strides.
“Do you have anything to say for yourself?”
Luo Jin lowered his eyes. “Principal! I was forced to do this. Please be lenient on me.”
“What do you mean by ‘be lenient’ on you?”
The principal’s anger rose as he recalled Luo Jon’s actions. He had essentially slapped the principal in the face in front of the whole city.
“You’ve got some gall…”
The principal was so angry that he was trembling. After all, he had been a principal for more than ten years. Luo Jin was the first one who could make him this angry.
“Principal, principal, sob!” Luo Jin also noticed that the principal’s mood was not quite favorable. He immediately lowered his head in respect, and did not dare to look at the principal anymore.
“…I’m willing to bear any losses and punishment. Please just spare me.”
The principal looked at him coldly. “Losses and punishments… You make it sound so easy.”
That’s right, the thing that Luo Jin had lost was only that little bit of dignity. Compared to ruining the reputation of their school, which had taken decades to build, there was also the health of the students.
Even if he asked Luo Jin to pay for the damages, there was not enough money in the world to repair the academy’s reputation.
“Alright, from today onwards, I will permanently strip you of your right to be an Echelon student in our school!”
“Principal, please change the punishment. As long as you don’t strip me of my status as an Echelon, I’ll do anything you want!” Luo Jin became distressed at once. He knelt down beside the principal and gripped his pants leg tightly.
He had finally become an Echelon student! The entire family had placed their hopes on him. How was he going to tell his parents about this?
“Then let me ask you: what were you doing from the beginning?” The principal did not even bother to look at him. “Your initial ranking wasn’t low either, right? Out of the ten Echelons, you’re ranked Second. How are you still not satisfied?
“I was patient with you before because you were a student of the academy. You’re the Second Echelon. Our Academy has a policy to focus on nurturing the top three Echelons. If you wanted any cultivation resources, you only had to let us know.
“But now?” The principal sneered. “You can’t blame anyone but yourself for falling into such a situation! Our academy will not tolerate an Echelon student like you. If you still want to be an Echelon, hurry up and transfer to another school. Don’t waste my time here!”
After saying this, the principal walked down the stage.
Luo Jin’s entire body suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, powerlessly falling to the bottom.
“How did this happen?”
Everyone in the audience changed their attitude towards Luo Jin and looked at him with disgust. They whispered to each other.
“I didn’t think that the young master of the Luo family would actually use such a despicable method.”
“How disgusting. He actually used such a dirty trick in the arena.”
“Ah, this kind of person is even worse than that goddess-stealing Shen Fei.”
“That means Shen Fei is still open for duelling aboveboard.”
“Damn it, my tongue hurts so much. It’s all because of that stupid spirit beast of his.”
“It’s fine. We’ll just ask the Luo family to foot our medical expenses.”
“Hahahahahahaha!” Luo Jin laughed desolately. The glasses on his face fell to the ground and broke into two pieces. “I’m an idiot… How could I have been so stupid?”
The Ocean Mirage also slumped on the ground, looking as if it had lost its will to fight. Both man and spirit beast looked so dejected. It would be difficult to reignite his fighting spirit in the short-term.
Shen Fei glanced at Luo Jin, and then returned the Flame Owl to his pocket realm.
It was completely Luo Jin’s own fault for his current state. Shen Fei could not be bothered with what Luo Jin would become in the future.
“It’s you! It’s all your fault!” Luo Jin looked at Shen Fei viciously. “You despicable and shameless b*stard! If you hadn’t purposely deceived me, I wouldn’t have ended up like this! If you had the guts, you wouldn’t have used that kind of move. I want a rematch!”
Shen Fei raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Luo Jin with pity, shaking his head.
“Come on, you want to defeat me? It’s better to go to the special cultivation room and cultivate for another five or ten years before coming back. Oh, that’s right,” Shen Fei revealed an expression of sudden realization, the smile on his face also grew wide, “You’ve been stripped of your status as an Echelon. The special cultivation room will never be yours.”
