Urban Super Medical Sage Chapter 2480 - 2580: Questioning! (Second Update)
Previously on Urban Super Medical Sage...
It mainly relies on the support of the three supreme elders.
Not giving the dean face in this matter is of little consequence.
Feng Qiu also knows that by favoring Su Chen like this, he has gone somewhat overboard. If Huang Zhi were to leave in direct expression of his anger and then give a lesson, the three supreme elders might actually get involved personally.
The three supreme elders hold high regard for Huang Zhi.
Even though he is the dean, he cannot oppose all three of the supreme elders.
With Huang Zhi’s departure, the atmosphere in the Saint Academy slightly eased.
From Su Chen’s appearance, to Shang Getian being heavily injured, to Huang Zhi’s reappearance, the dean stepping in to favor Su Chen, and Huang Zhi’s subsequent departure.
The entire process seemed complex, but in fact, it was resolved in such a short time.
Those slow to react hadn’t realized what was happening before it was over.
Clearly, Su Chen insanely provoked Huang Zhi!!
Completely reckless.
Was he to be slain by Huang Zhi on the spot?
Yet unexpectedly...
The dean, as elder, as part of the older generation, personally intervened.
For a moment, among the hundreds of thousands of students present, frankly speaking, most felt dissatisfaction in their hearts.
It can be said that Feng Qiu’s prestige at the Saint Academy, built over countless years, diminished by about a fifth due to his favoring Su Chen this time.
If Feng Qiu’s prestige at the Saint Academy wasn’t terrifying enough, this incident might have already cost him the position of dean.
"Disperse now." Taking a deep breath, Feng Qiu commanded.
The crowd of hundreds of thousands of students dispersed.
With a grim face.
Could it not be grim?
He wished to openly scold Su Chen.
This brat is truly...
"Su Chen, you really should thank the dean. If not for him..." said Feng Yinqing softly beside Su Chen, his voice filled with gratitude.
Su Chen remained silent, somewhat helpless.
The dean has expended such great effort to favor him.
It indeed moved him.
However, in reality, it was entirely unnecessary!
Was Huang Zhi truly that formidable?
Perhaps.
But in an actual fight, the one sure to die would be Huang Zhi, wouldn’t it?
Of course, it doesn’t really matter, as there’s still a battle scheduled for half a month later.
"The other half of the Holy Stele is still more crucial."
Why didn’t Su Chen explain anything when the dean intervened earlier? Why did it seem like he just accepted the dean’s favor without showcasing his truly shocking strength in a showdown with Huang Zhi?
The reason is simple.
Upon re-entering the Saint Academy, he sensed a faint aura.
The aura of the Holy Stele.
It felt like a dream.
Having obtained half of the Holy Stele from the Li family, he was wondering when he could get the other half.
Unexpectedly, upon returning to the Saint Academy, he met with such a huge surprise!!!
This half of the Holy Stele is immensely important.
The Holy Stele takes precedence.
If he fought with Huang Zhi today, it’s certain that he could kill Huang Zhi, but most likely he’d incur injuries too.
Furthermore, Su Chen has a premonition that the injuries would be severe enough that, even with his frightening recovery speed, it might take some days to fully heal.
And to absorb the other half of the Holy Stele, one needs a completely healed body. Injuries won’t do.
Thus, fighting Huang Zhi today would inadvertently delay the date he could absorb the Saint Academy’s half of the Holy Stele.
Upon pondering, the Holy Stele is more critical, and the desire for the Stele greater, so he accepted the dean’s favor.
"Half a month later, after I’ve absorbed that half of the Holy Stele and the so-called Ancient Holy Academy martial arts exchange begins, dear dean, by then, when I crush Huang Zhi, I will naturally win back your face and restore the prestige lost today." Su Chen thought to himself.
He knows very well that due to the dean’s favoring him earlier, the dean’s prestige at the Saint Academy was impacted. How to restore this prestige? As long as he can overpower Huang Zhi, it will naturally happen.
"Su Chen, leave the Saint Academy!!! Leave within three days!" At this moment, Feng Qiu spoke, turning to look at Su Chen, staring at him and reprimanding.
His voice was indisputable.
"Dear dean, let’s discuss this later. I have some matters with Yinqing and Yunyi, so we’ll leave first." Su Chen said with a smile, and then left with Nan Yunyi and Feng Yinqing.
Feng Qiu’s face turned purple.
This brat, after he personally intervened to help him, he doesn’t even appreciate it!
He wished he could directly teach Su Chen a lesson to help him realize that for a martial cultivator, arrogance is highly undesirable!
But it was already too late, as the three supreme elders had already descended and stood before him.
Feng Qiu gave Su Chen a deep look, thinking to himself that there’s still half a month left, and plenty of time. After handling the three supreme elders, he’d find Su Chen to solemnly set his mindset right and then send Su Chen away from the Saint Academy.
"Dean, you shouldn’t have." Elder Xuu said in a deep voice, his tone heavy with undisguised dissatisfaction.
"This act greatly harmed the Saint Academy’s prestige." Elder Guo snorted, criticizing the dean for personally favoring a student as utterly mindless.
Moreover, is Su Chen more outstanding than Huang Zhi?!
No.
At least as it stands now, he falls far short; the so-called talent for martial cultivation has not yet exchanged into the strength of martial cultivation, all of which are illusory.
Feng Qiu favoring Su Chen was simply madness.
If one must favor either Su Chen or Huang Zhi, clearly, one should favor Huang Zhi.
"Alas." Elder Wang sighed, also very disappointed in Feng Qiu.
"Su Chen really isn’t as good as Huang Zhi; the gap is huge!!!" Elder Xuu said word by word, with a tone of disapproving disbelief: "Dean, your vision has always been very very good, why between Su Chen and Huang Zhi..."
Obviously, anyone can see Su Chen and Huang Zhi are not in the same league.
"You all will understand later." Feng Qiu didn’t explain much, nor would he reveal the fact that Su Chen is the man of Empress Wenren Nongyue.
The Empress is invincible.
She temporarily chose not to reveal her relationship with Su Chen for his sake, and how could Feng Qiu dare to divulge it?
But in the future, when Su Chen grows, everyone will become aware of their relationship, and the three supreme elders will come to know as well, then realizing the significance of his earlier actions.
Su Chen isn’t just Su Chen; behind him stands an invincible Empress!
Moreover, the more one understands Su Chen, the more one considers his martial cultivation talent to be unbeatable...
Favoring Su Chen posed absolutely no problem.
"You... Dean, do you really not see your mistake?!" Elder Xuu squinted, his heart intensely furious.
In fact, if there were someone qualified to take the dean’s place at the Saint Academy right now, just based on Feng Qiu’s previous intervention and his serious harm to the Saint Academy’s reputation and prestige, the three supreme elders would have already replaced him.
If the three joined forces, they could achieve it.
