Chapter 45: Chen Hao



Since yesterday, he had been doing everything low-key, avoiding any flamboyance or exposure, treating everyone gently and sincerely. But what was happening today? Why did everyone want to apprentice under him? Could it be that his identity as a revered teacher had been exposed?

He carefully glanced at Yu Longqing and Lu Mingrong and was relieved to see that their eyes held only admiration, nothing more.

"This guy must be crazy, refusing the City Lord\'s personal request to take Miss Yu as his student?"

"What\'s going on? Why would the City Lord want to send his daughter to be a student of an auxiliary teacher?"

Zhang Xuan\'s refusal caused an uproar. The students were all wide-eyed, especially those who had mocked him earlier. They felt their faces burning with embarrassment.

They had just said he was crazy for not accepting Liu Mingyue, and the next moment, the City Lord was trying to send his daughter to him. What was going on?

"Don\'t worry, refusing the City Lord is bound to bring trouble!" a student speculated.

"Yeah! The City Lord\'s word is law. Daring to refuse him is asking for trouble!" another agreed.

Just when everyone thought the City Lord would erupt in anger, he instead spoke cautiously, his face full of apology. "I\'m sorry, I was being rash... If you really won\'t accept her, at least let Xiaoyu assist you. When you feel she\'s suitable, you can accept her as your student."

Geniuses indeed had their temperaments, better not push too hard...

"???" Everyone was dumbfounded again.

‘You\'re the City Lord…’

‘Shouldn\'t you be angry, or at least upset about being refused?’

‘The most surprising part was asking his daughter to assist... Isn\'t that like making her a servant?’

Their throats dry, the crowd couldn\'t speak, turning to Yu Xiaoyu to see her reaction.

"Dad... what are you doing?" Yu Xiaoyu was genuinely angry.

She had worked hard and trained diligently to become the dean\'s student. Now that she had been accepted, her father wanted her to quit and apprentice under an auxiliary teacher... and he didn\'t even want to accept her!

"Shut up! Just do as I say!" Yu Longqing said, waving his hand in annoyance.

Yu Xiaoyu\'s face turned red with anger.

Seeing her friend being forced to become the student of a former servant, Mo Yanxue couldn\'t stand it either. She bowed and said, "City Lord, Xiaoyu is extremely talented. Isn\'t it inappropriate to make her apprentice under Zhang Xuan?"

"I know what I\'m doing!" Yu Longqing interrupted her. "I know you and Xiaoyu are close friends, so please help me persuade her. I am her father; I wouldn\'t harm her!"

Seeing that the City Lord was serious, Mo Yanxue didn\'t know how to dissuade him and looked at her friend again.

"Dad..." Yu Xiaoyu\'s lips pursed in anger, but she understood that her father must have his reasons. After a brief hesitation, she finally nodded. "Alright, Dad! But if he doesn\'t teach me well, you have to compensate me!"

"Of course!"

Seeing his daughter agree, Yu Longqing smiled and looked cautiously at Zhang Xuan again. "Teacher Zhang..."

Seeing his sincerity, Zhang Xuan knew he couldn\'t refuse any longer. The most crucial point was that being surrounded by so many people contradicted his desire to keep a low profile. He reluctantly nodded. "Just to be clear, she is only here to help for now. How and what I teach her will be decided later."

Since he hadn\'t learned any techniques yet, he wouldn\'t be able to teach even if he wanted to. To avoid exposing himself, it was best to set expectations early.

"Of course..."

Yu Longqing finally relaxed, his face full of joy.

"Now that everything is settled, Teacher Zhang, let me show you to your quarters and arrange your duties..."

Seeing that Zhang Xuan was drawing too much attention, Lu Mingrong, fearing his genius identity might be guessed, quickly offered with an awkward smile.

"Alright."

Just as Zhang Xuan was about to leave the crowd, Liu Mingyue blocked his way. "Hold on!"

"What now?" Zhang Xuan frowned.

"If you can accept Yu Xiaoyu, why not me?" Liu Mingyue gritted her teeth.

Since this guy had caused no one to accept her, she decided to make things difficult for him. If he didn\'t want to take her as a student, she would force her way in. Once accepted, she planned to do the opposite of whatever he instructed, causing trouble and embarrassing him in front of the entire academy.

Let him know that Liu Mingyue was not someone to be trifled with!

"Accept you?" Zhang Xuan frowned.

"That\'s right! If you agree, I will gift you Dao Li directly, not just sell it to you."

"Fine! Today, you both follow the academy\'s arrangements. Come find me tomorrow..."

Seeing more and more people gathering, Zhang Xuan nodded, unwilling to continue the dispute. Most importantly, he didn\'t have the money to buy Dao Li anyway.

"Alright!" Liu Mingyue snorted coldly and turned away.

‘Accept me as your student? Fine, I\'ll become your nightmare!’

Afraid that more people would ask to be his disciples, Zhang Xuan quickly followed Dean Lu, leaving. Yu Longqing, knowing it wasn\'t appropriate to press further, also turned to leave. His daughter was already under Zhang Xuan\'s care, so the connection was made.

"Dad..." Yu Xiaoyu hurried to catch up.

"You are now a student of White Rock Academy. You can\'t leave the school at will. Go back quickly!" Yu Longqing waved her off.

Yu Xiaoyu frowned, "But Dad..."

"You\'ll understand in time!" Knowing he couldn\'t explain now, Yu Longqing left the campus swiftly.

Once they were gone, the students gathered together, exploding with chatter.

"This Zhang Xuan... is his name Zhang Xuan? What\'s going on?"

"I heard he used to be a groom at the Mo family. Somehow, the dean noticed him and made him an auxiliary teacher!"

"Even if he\'s favored, he\'s still just a servant. For Miss Yu and Miss Liu to be his students, he must be putting on airs, thinking he\'s some great master!"

"He needs a good lesson. We\'ll deal with him later..."

Watching Zhang Xuan\'s departing figure, many students were filled with anger.

Both Yu Xiaoyu and Liu Mingyue were among the most popular beauties in the academy. Now they were students of a mere servant, which left everyone discontented.

"Actually, we don\'t need to do anything. Didn\'t he just accept Miss Liu as a student and even demand her to gift Dao Li?" a boy in the crowd laughed. "We just need to inform the Liu family about this. The Liu family head will surely deal with him..."

The eldest daughter of one of the three major families, unable to apprentice under the dean, would cause no issue. But apprenticing under an auxiliary teacher... it would definitely cause an uproar.

"Exactly! Young Master Chen is indeed smart!"

Everyone\'s eyes lit up.

Young Master Chen was Chen Hao, the young master of the Chen family, one of the three major families in White Roc City and one of Liu Mingyue\'s ardent admirers.

Seeing his goddess being forced to apprentice under an auxiliary teacher was such a humiliation that it made him furious. No matter what, he needed to teach Zhang Xuan a lesson to defend Liu Mingyue\'s honor and make her see him in a new light.

Unlike the others\' mocking, Mo Yanxue furrowed her brows, thinking hard but unable to understand.

‘Forget it,’ she decided. ‘I\'ll just follow the dean closely and take more notes. If necessary, I\'ll explain everything to Xiaoyu again. I can\'t let her fall behind in her cultivation…’
