第49章 林凡高大神圣的老师形象深入人心。

Chapter 49 Lin Fan's image as a lofty and sacred teacher was deeply ingrained in people's minds.

"Don't you think that teacher from Class D, Grade 1 is an idiot? He dares to challenge four teachers from Class B, one against four. I really wonder how he'll die later." A student from Class B, dressed in a silver robe, shook his head disdainfully.

"The world is vast and full of wonders. Teacher Liu Qingfeng, Teacher Hu Ben, Teacher Jun Wuchang, and Teacher Li Xiaojun are all veteran innate fifth-rank experts. Even an innate sixth-rank might not gain an advantage against the four of them working together. I don't know what gives that Class D teacher such confidence."

"You know what's strange? Today when I passed by Class C, some trash from Class D actually came to provoke me, saying 'Don't bully the young and poor.' I found it amusing at the time."

"They'll try anything. But proving oneself isn't done this way. This kind of match isn't worth watching. Better to go to the library and pick a technique to study carefully."

"Senior Brother Liu, I heard you chose a Yellow-grade upper-rank 'Boundless Ocean' last time. Have you mastered it? It seems Senior Brother Liu is truly gifted, even mastering 'Boundless Ocean.'"

"Not at all, not at all. 'Boundless Ocean' has six layers; I've only barely reached the third. I'm still far from the Great Perfection. Since I've hit a plateau, I thought I'd pick another technique to practice. As they say, more skills don't weigh you down—it's good to know a few more." Senior Brother Liu felt proud inside but waved his hand modestly.

"Eh, Senior Brother Liu, look, someone's coming. Seems like people from Class D."

…

At this moment, Lin Fan strolled over leisurely, not taking the upcoming match to heart at all.

"Teacher, what are we doing here?" Cao Fushu asked doubtfully.

"Tianjiao, the teacher is here to give you your second lesson." Lin Fan replied calmly.

Cao Fushu was stunned. The second lesson here? Although they were Class D students, they knew this was the arena. And why were there so many people at the arena today? Was someone having a match?

Could the teacher be bringing them here to explain the scene?

"The teacher must be showing us a duel between experts, to make us understand that if we become experts, we can be like them." Liu Shuishui, being a girl, tended to think more.

But even with a good mind, it couldn't change their innate mediocrity.

Liu Shuishui deeply respected Teacher Lin. Since Teacher Lin said her name was Liu Shuishui, she was ready to change her name and keep it for life, because it was given by her beloved teacher.

"Shuishui, you're really smart. We didn't think of that." Zhu You said honestly.

Liu Shuishui raised her head cheerfully, but when she glanced at the teacher, she saw him walking toward the stage. Startled, she cried, "Teacher, what are you doing?"

"Kneading people." Lin Fan replied without looking back.

The thirteen students were stunned, not understanding what the teacher meant.

"I suggest you call a doctor for your teacher now, or else when he gets beaten and spits blood, it'll be too late to save him." A Class B student said smugly.

Cao Tianjiao and the others were dumbfounded. The teacher was going on stage? Why hadn't he mentioned it?

Besides, the teacher had only been a teacher for a day. How could he have a conflict with other teachers?

"Your Class D really produces talents—not only trash but also a teacher with no brains. Daring to take on four alone, truly asking for death." A Class B student taunted.

"Don't you dare insult our teacher!" Cao Tianjiao glared at the Class B student, face red with anger.

"Heh." The Class B student shook his head disdainfully.

…

Now Lin Fan stepped onto the arena one step at a time, looked at the four teachers standing there, smiled slightly, then turned to look at his thirteen students.

Cao Tianjiao and the others saw the teacher stop and focused their attention on him.

Lin Fan felt that the time, place, and people were all right—it was the perfect moment to give these students their second lesson.

As a guide for students, a teacher naturally had to imprint his image deeply in their hearts.

Lofty, majestic, sacred, great.

Lin Fan clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze seeming to pierce through the heavens as he looked at them. His voice was deep yet dignified: "In others' eyes, you are trash, mediocrities. But in the teacher's eyes, you are the smartest people in the world. These four fellows call you trash, ineducable fools. The teacher will now prove that in my eyes, they are worse than fools."

"Teacher…" At that moment, the thirteen students' eyes suddenly brimmed with tears as they looked at their dear and beloved teacher.

They hadn't expected that the reason the teacher went on stage was for them.

At Tianfu Academy, they were used to being called trash and fools, used to being bullied without fighting back. But now, the teacher's words touched the most fragile depths of their hearts.

Once touched, it broke. Tears gushed out like a flood, endlessly flowing.

"Well said, but I wonder if you have the substance to back up those words to your students." Liu Qingfeng said sarcastically.

Since the man had torn off all pretense, there was no need to be hypocritical.

Lin Fan looked at the four. Innate fifth-rank. With his own cultivation, one against four might be tricky, but only if he wasn't serious.

So this time, he would take it seriously.

"Today, I'll use my double axes to chop you into pieces!" The hot-tempered Hu Ben roared furiously.

Lin Fan stood on the stage, his aura unchanged, and said calmly, "My students, just watch carefully. In the future, you will become just as strong."

"Yes, teacher!" The thirteen students nodded heavily, tears still flowing uncontrollably. This was the first time, aside from their families, that someone valued them.

Some of the students watching the match suddenly felt that this Class D teacher was different from other teachers.

They had never heard a teacher say such things before.

But then they shook their heads. Here, strength reigned supreme. If you wanted respect, you needed corresponding strength and talent; otherwise, nothing else mattered.

These Class D students had fixed aptitudes. No matter how good the teacher was, it was useless unless he could defy fate.

"Come on, all four of you. I'll make you understand that underestimating anyone comes with a heavy price." At that moment, a breeze blew, lifting the hem of Lin Fan's robe. Standing on the stage with his hands behind his back, his image suddenly seemed towering and majestic in his students' eyes, like a transcendent master, dazzlingly bright.

"Ah! Triple Axe!" Hu Ben could no longer hold back. He leaped up, his true energy erupting, and his double axes came crashing down toward Lin Fan's shoulders with immense force.

Triple Axe was Hu Ben's signature move. One axe strike carried three layers of force, each overlapping the next. Few of the same rank could withstand it head-on.

Lin Fan stood there unflustered, a faint smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

…

"Teacher…" The thirteen students watched the scene, their faces turning pale with shock. Why wasn't the teacher dodging?

Liu Qingfeng and the others smiled. Was he trying to withstand it head-on? What a pipe dream.
