My martial spirit leads me to Earth; I begin by submitting my skills to the Douluo Continent.

Chapter 64 When the Flames Are Ignited

"Bewitchment?"

Upon hearing those two words, the aristocratic boy smiled contemptuously.

He held up one finger and shook it.

"Principal, you're being too naive."

"My dad taught me a principle from a young age: when doing business, you should associate with rich people; when navigating society, you should associate with the strong."

"What kind of background does Boss Su have? What kind of future does he have?"

"And what about you?"

The boy mocked mercilessly, "A Soul Master stuck at level 42 for ten years who can't break through, and a coward who only knows how to bark at students."

"Even a fool knows which option to choose in this multiple-choice question."

After saying that, the boy ripped off his school badge and threw it into the nearby trash can.

"Brothers! Withdraw your investment! Let's get out!"

"Let's go!!!"

Notting College? Even a dog wouldn't go there!

Dozens of aristocratic students cheered and crowded around the work-study students, surging towards the school gate in a grand procession.

Only the balcony remains.

The principal's face turned ashen, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud.

It’s over.

It's all over.

At this moment, Su Yun stopped and slowly turned around.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on him, casting a long shadow.

He looked up, through his sunglasses, at the principal on the balcony, who was now slumped over like a limp rag doll.

"Principal, you just said that if we leave this door, we'll be nothing but wild spirit masters, the trash at the bottom of society?"

Su Yun's voice was very soft, yet it sounded like muffled thunder rolling across the silent square.

You're wrong.

"You've not only misjudged me, you've misjudged this era."

Su Yun took off his sunglasses, and in his eyes burned a fierce fire of ambition.

He looked around, at the academy that had imprisoned the thoughts of countless people, and at this continent bound by rules.

"There are too many educators like you and colleges like Notting on this continent."

Su Yun's voice suddenly rose, each word like a knife.

"You use birth to divide people into different classes, telling ordinary students that they are born lowly!"

"You're using student records to create a cage, telling students that without that letter of recommendation, they can't move an inch!"

"You have turned knowledge into the private property of the powerful and wealthy, and education into a whip to tame slaves!"

"In your eyes, obedient dogs are good students, and wolves that wag their tails and beg for mercy are good soul masters!"

At this point, Su Yun suddenly stretched out a finger and pointed to the golden signboard of Notting Junior Soul Master Academy hanging at the school gate.

"But this isn't education! This is castration!!"

"You have castrated the youth's spirit! Castrated their thirst for truth! Just to prune them into the kind of bonsai you like!"

Su Yun suddenly turned around, her fingers like sharp swords, pointing at the high-ranking school leaders.

"Tell them to be obedient, to conform, and not to stand out."

"You like to trim their edges, smooth out their wildness, until everyone is trimmed to look exactly the same!"

Why do this?

"Because potted plants are easy to care for!"

"Because potted plants never grow tall, they'll never prick the hands of those high and mighty gentlemen!"

"Admit it, Principal."

"It's not that the students are unruly, it's simply that you're incompetent!"

"Because you can't control wild beasts, you can only raise livestock!"

"Because your barren brains can't comprehend the thoughts of geniuses, you can only push them into the mud, forcing them to become as mediocre as you are!"

"Only when everyone becomes useless can you teachers who teach useless people sit comfortably in your positions, wasting your lives!"

The principal's face turned from deathly pale to liver-colored, and he pointed at Su Yun, his hand trembling.

"You—you—you're spreading heresy and misleading the public! You're ruining their futures!"

"Ruined your future?"

Su Yun felt as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Whether it ruined your future or destroyed the livelihoods of a bunch of people who only mislead students, you know the answer in your hearts!"

"What do you mean by 'future'?"

"Is it about taking a worthless diploma and spending your life as a groveling watchdog for the nobility?"

"That kind of lousy future, it's no big deal if it's ruined!"

Su Yun slowly raised a finger, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"ten years."

Su Yun shook his head, a confident smile curving his lips.

"No, perhaps only five years."

"When the real flames ignite, when those beasts you have suppressed break free of their cages—"

"Your proud ivory tower, along with you pedantic gravediggers, will be burned to ashes!"

The wind rises.

The wind blew, causing the boy's clothes to flutter.

"And I, Su Yun."

He abruptly turned around, refusing to look at the dilapidated academy again, and strode towards the school gate, leaving only his back view.

"It will be that one—"

"A person holding a torch!"

Snapped!

A crisp sound broke the sound of the wind.

It was a small, fair, soft, yet powerful hand that gripped Su Yun's raised hand tightly in mid-air.

Su Yun paused slightly and turned her head to the side.

What came into view was Xiao Wu's pretty face, which was filled with stubbornness and excitement.

"Boss Su, you looked fierce just now, but you were also incredibly cool!"

"But I'm warning you, since you smashed that broken cage that held the bunny, you're now responsible for the bunny's future homelessness. You'll have to take it everywhere you go and make sure it has an endless supply of carrots to eat!"

Immediately afterwards, Tang San also stood to Su Yun's left.

"Brother Su, do you know that the person who lights the fire is often in the most danger, because all the darkness will rush towards you immediately, trying to extinguish the only flame?"

"But that's okay. Just keep walking forward with your torch, even if you poke a hole in the sky, it doesn't matter."

"As for those malevolent winds trying to extinguish the flames, or those hidden arrows attempting to strike from behind—leave them all to me. I will clear away every shadow for you."

"Me too!! Me too!"

A loud shout, like a thunderclap from a clear sky.

With red eyes, Wang Sheng roared as if he were about to unleash all the strength he had in his life, leading the group of work-study students who were already filled with enthusiasm, and they followed.

The noble students were now jostling and pushing each other, afraid that if they were a step behind, they would fall behind Su Yun's pace.

"Wait for me!"

"Boss Su! Take me with you!"

The principal, Director Su, and the group of teachers who were stunned stood alone on the high platform.

They watched helplessly as the playground became empty.

He watched as the group of students, who were usually so obedient to him, now seemed like a herd of wild horses that had broken free of their reins, chasing after the boy with his hand raised, rushing towards the outside world without looking back.

At sunset.

Su Yun walked at the front, his right hand held tightly by Xiao Wu and raised high towards the sky.

Tang San stood guard beside him.

Behind him stood a vast army.
