Douluo: Twin Origins, Suppressing the World

Chapter 115 Could it be that Dean Xian is a person who likes "rationality"?!

As Tang Ya said, this time the academy did not choose to continue to turn a blind eye.

The impact of the complete replacement of those who advanced in the selection competition had not yet subsided when another incident occurred: students assaulting a college teacher.

If the Shrek Academy leadership continues to sit idly by and turn a blind eye to this, they will truly lose all credibility.

"Ling Shuang, do you have anything to explain about your relationship with Teacher Zhou?"

It's unclear whether it's some kind of special fate, but the referee who was beaten up actually shares the same surname as Zhou Yi.

As expected, Ling Shuang was summoned to the dean's office the next day.

But it wasn't just Dean Yan Shaozhe; many other high-ranking members of the college also came.

They sat opposite Ling Shuang, watching him silently with scrutinizing eyes.

Even for ordinary students, this intimidating stance would make them incredibly nervous.

But Ling Shuang was never ordinary.

His expression was calm and composed, his arms crossed in front of him: "I don't think there's any need for explanation."

"With the abilities of everyone in the academy, they should be very clear about the ins and outs of the whole matter, and they should have already made their decisions."

"Explaining is just a waste of breath, and I don't want to do something so pointless."

Seeing Ling Shuang's behavior, Yan Shaozhe was anxious.

Because Ma Xiaotao and he himself had a good impression of Ling Shuang, he was the one among the Shrek Academy's higher-ups who least wanted Ling Shuang to get into trouble, and therefore the one who most wanted to maintain a good relationship with her.

In his view, if it weren't for the fact that other people in the college felt that this matter was very serious, he wouldn't have even considered pursuing the matter.

Yan Shaozhe initially thought that as long as Ling Shuang apologized slightly and gave these people some face, and he, as the dean of the Martial Soul Department, said a few words on their behalf, this matter should be resolved.

But judging from Ling Shuang's appearance, she had no intention of admitting her mistake.

"presumptuous!"

"What kind of attitude is this? You assaulted a faculty member and you think you're not in the wrong?!"

Qian Duoduo slammed his fist on the table and stood up, pointing at Ling Shuang and angrily rebuking her.

This matter should logically be an internal affair of the Martial Soul Department and has nothing to do with him, a high-ranking member of the Soul Guidance Department.

However, when Qian Duoduo heard that the trouble was caused by the person Yan Shaozhe favored, she immediately brought up the fact that the whole academy was involved and that this matter had affected the entire academy, which led to the conversation where Ling Shuang was summoned.

He didn't have much interaction with Ling Shuang, and he didn't harbor much ill will towards her.

Qian Duoduo only wanted to disgust Yan Shaozhe.

In his view, rebuking the person Yan Shaozhe had his eye on was also a form of rebuking Yan Shaozhe.

Yan Shaozhe had actually seen through Qian Duoduo's thoughts.

His face was slightly gloomy, and a shadow of malice flashed in his eyes.

"Dean Qian," Yan Shaozhe said in a deep voice, reminding Qian Duoduo not to go too far.

This is still Yan Shaozhe's office!

Faced with Qian Duoduo's angry rebuke, Ling Shuang sneered: "Dean Qian, if you make such remarks without understanding the ins and outs of the matter, then I think that as a vice dean, you should not be so rash."

"If you're expressing your true thoughts after fully understanding the whole story, then..."

Ling Shuang didn't say anything more, but just chuckled before continuing.

"If your girlfriend is being bullied and you can still calmly reason with people, then Dean Qian, you are something else."

Ling Shuang gave Qian Duoduo a thumbs up.

But this gesture of praise was, at this moment, as sarcastic as could be.

Then, as if she had just realized something, Ling Shuang had a look of sudden realization: "Could it be that Dean Xianlin'er likes Dean Qian's 'rational' personality?!"

As soon as Ling Shuang said this, the temperature in the office noticeably dropped by a degree.

Qian Duoduo's rugged face, which was by no means handsome, was now flushed.

Of course, it wasn't shyness, but rather a warm blush.

Does Xianlin'er like rational people?

That's true. Xian Lin'er not only likes rational people, but also good-looking people. That's why she likes Yan Shaozhe.

After all, compared to Qian Duoduo, Yan Shaozhe is clearly the more rational one.

Ling Shuang's words were undoubtedly reopening Qian Duoduo's wounds.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Qian Duoduo is now married to Xian Lin'er and seems to have won the heart of a beauty.

But in reality, it was just a fake marriage, a fake couple.

Qian Duoduo is indeed one of the most devoted admirers in mainland China.

But even a simp, how could he not care that the woman he loves has always liked another man, and that she only married him to spite that other man?

Ling Shuang's blatant sarcasm laid bare Qian Duoduo's deepest pain.

The intense sunlight made the wound sting.

"Bastard!" Qian Duoduo suddenly raised his hand to strike Ling Shuang.

The pendant around Ling Shuang's neck shimmered faintly.

"Lots of money!"

Yan Shaozhe grabbed Qian Duoduo's raised arm.

The clash of two Title Douluo-level soul powers instantly ground everything on the table into dust.

With her hair flying in the wind, Ling Shuang sat in the chair, her expression still calm and composed.

"Dean Qian!" The other senior members of the academy also frowned and reprimanded him in a deep voice.

They came to demand a public apology from Ling Shuang to uphold the academy's dignity, not to physically assault him.

This is something that Elder Mu specifically emphasized.

After all, forcing someone to apologize and resorting to violence have completely different effects.

Qian Duoduo then realized that she had overreacted.

He snorted coldly, pried Yan Shaozhe's hand off his, withdrew his soul power, and sat down.

Qian Duoduo turned her head away, not wanting to look at Ling Shuang anymore.

He was genuinely worried that he might lose control of his anger and do something excessive.

Ling Shuang guessed the reason for their reaction.

He raised his eyebrows slightly.

Unexpectedly, the mysterious divine family background that Moon imagined turned out to be quite useful.

Yan Shaozhe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the scene return to calm.

He looked at Ling Shuang again, feeling a bit of a headache.

How can this child have such a sharp tongue?

This made things a little more complicated.

Fortunately, no other trainees were present, otherwise Yan Shaozhe would not have known how to handle the situation.

He was also somewhat frustrated.

How did Ling Shuang know about these old, trivial matters?
Yan Shaozhe did not believe that Ling Shuang had just casually touched on Qian Duoduo's wound.

His intuition told him that Ling Shuang was intentionally mocking Qian Duoduo.

However, Yan Shaozhe, who was unaware of the fake marriage, also couldn't understand why Qian Duoduo was so agitated.

Setting aside his doubts for the time being, Yan Shaozhe gently persuaded Ling Shuang:
"Ling Shuang, let's not dwell on who's right or wrong. Just apologize publicly to Teacher Zhou, and we'll call it even, okay?"

"As a student, there won't be any problem if you apologize to the academy's teachers; it's better for everyone."

“…” Ling Shuang sighed and rubbed her forehead.

What a convenient way to ignore the facts.

　Is it really necessary to make team building activities mandatory...?
