"Defending Honor: Huang Xiaolong's Stand Against Starry Sky Academy"

Zhong Yuan said, and Xiong Meiqi responded, "Very well, Father, we must eliminate him. Not only should we eliminate his three guards, but also put an end to this troublemaker who relies on his family's influence in the school!" Here, Zhong Yuan pointed his finger at Huang Xiaolong and added, "We should also detain him and make his family's patriarch personally come to apologize to our school!"

Huang Xiaolong sneered upon hearing this but remained silent. He wanted to see what the father of that female bear had to say.

Xiong Chu listened to his daughter and Zhong Yuan, calmly looking at Huang Xiaolong and Fei Hou's group. Suddenly, he said to his daughter, "Give me that letter of recommendation."

Xiong Meiqi was startled but handed over the letter of recommendation to Huang Xiaolong as instructed.

Xiong Chu received the letter of recommendation and noticed a small symbol at the bottom corner. His eyes narrowed in realization. Indeed! This letter of recommendation was delivered by the Dean himself!

Xiong Chu furrowed his brows. Since it was a letter of recommendation delivered personally by the Dean, he couldn't handle it lightly. Rejecting the registration of someone with the Dean's letter would only lead to trouble. Only the Dean had the authority to deal with it.

Deep in thought, Xiong Chu looked at Huang Xiaolong and said, "Young man, as long as you and your three guards offer a formal apology, I can overlook this matter."

Overlook the matter!

Everyone was stunned, finding it hard to believe.

A severe injury caused to a teacher, and a mere apology would be enough?!

"Father, you!" Xiong Meiqi anxiously wanted to speak up, but Xiong Chu raised his hand and said, "That's enough, no need to say anything."

Xiong Meiqi's throat choked, and she glared hatefully at Huang Xiaolong.

Just when everyone thought Huang Xiaolong would apologize, he unexpectedly spoke up, "Why should we apologize? I want them to apologize to me!" He then pointed his finger at Zhong Yuan and Xiong Meiqi.

"What?!" Everyone was startled, looking at Huang Xiaolong in disbelief. Was he out of his mind? Didn't he understand what Vice Dean Xiong Chu said?

"What did you say? You want us to apologize to you?!" Xiong Meiqi almost exploded with anger. She had already felt extremely displeased when her father made the other party apologize, but now the other party actually wanted her to apologize!

"Father, you see it too. This waste doesn't respect our Starry Sky Academy!" Xiong Meiqi turned to Xiong Chu, expressing her frustration.

Xiong Chu looked at Huang Xiaolong, his expression darkening. This waste, relying on his family's influence and obtaining the Dean's letter of recommendation, was truly clueless. Although he wanted to save face for the courtyard, he had been exceptionally lenient by asking for an apology. Yet, the other party dared to take an inch when given an inch!

At that moment, Huang Xiaolong sneered at Xiong Meiqi and said, "You keep calling me waste and accusing us of causing trouble. Well then, bring out the square picture recording ball and let everyone see how we caused trouble!" The square definitely had such picture recording balls, just like Starry Sky Academy.

Xiong Chu's complexion turned cold, "Go, bring the square picture recording ball."

"Yes, Vice Dean!" One of the teachers respectfully acknowledged and quickly left. He soon returned holding a spherical object that resembled a crystal ball.

"Activate the recording ball!" Xiong Chu commanded.

The teacher infused Battle Qi into the ball, and in no time, images were projected into the air, revealing the events that had unfolded earlier.

First, Xiong Meiqi threw Huang Xiaolong's student identity card on the ground. Then, Zhong Yuan and his three men approached, demanding that Huang Xiaolong apologize. Subsequently, Zhong Yuan attacked Huang Xiaolong, and finally, Fei Hou stepped in and severely injured Zhong Yuan.

Xiong Meiqi and Zhong Yuan watched the playback, their complexions growing increasingly unpleasant.

Meanwhile, all the family disciples around who came to register had a clear understanding of what had happened and whispered among themselves.

Xiong Chu also watched the images, his complexion turning darker.

As the images concluded, Huang Xiaolong coldly spoke, "We did not cause trouble. You accused us of causing trouble. He wanted to kill me, and my guards defended themselves. Is that causing trouble? If I were to stand here and let him kill me, wouldn't that be even more troublesome?" He pointed at Zhong Yuan.

Zhong Yuan couldn't find words to defend himself, overcome with anger and resentment.

Huang Xiaolong turned to Xiong Chu and said, "Everything is clear now. Since we didn't cause trouble, I want to ask why we should apologize to them! Just because they are teachers from your school?"

Xiong Chu fell silent.

"Father!" Xiong Meiqi was about to speak up in defense, but Xiong Chu suddenly shouted, "Silence!" After shouting, he turned and said to Huang Xiaolong, "Young man, I will waive all the registration fees for you this year. This matter ends here!"

Waive all the registration fees!

The crowd was dumbfounded, all eyes fixed on Huang Xiaolong.

Having exchanged a gaze with Xiong Chu, Huang Xiaolong nodded slowly and said to Fei Hou and the others, "Let's go." Then, he led Fei Hou and the rest away.

People watched Huang Xiaolong's departure with varying expressions.

Xiong Chu didn't speak, but with a flicker, he left the square. The surrounding people slowly dispersed.

In the official discussion hall of Starry Sky Academy...

Xiong Chu sat there, emitting a faint starlight, the entire hall filled with a suppressed atmosphere.

Xiong Meiqi and Zhong Yuan stood behind him for a long time, not daring to utter a word.

"The letter of recommendation in that kid's hand was delivered by the Dean," Xiong Chu suddenly said.

Xiong Meiqi and Zhong Yuan were startled. Delivered by the Dean? This...

"Very well, both of you may leave," Xiong Chu then said.

Just as Xiong Meiqi was about to speak, Zhong Yuan pulled at her sleeve, signaling her to keep quiet. They performed a respectful salute and left the discussion hall.

Meanwhile, Huang Xiaolong, who had left Starry Sky Academy, didn't return directly to Marshal Mansion. Instead, he went to Tianxuan Mansion. After arriving there, he cleaned up the place, removing the weeds and clearing the junk in the courtyard. The rooms were thoroughly dusted.

Huang Xiaolong called for Beastman Boli and his group of sixteen people. He briefly inquired about the recent happenings at Tianxuan Mansion. After the conversation, Huang Xiaolong rewarded them with some gold coins and instructed them to purchase furniture and flowers to decorate the presidential office.

Afterward, Huang Xiaolong planned to move to Tianxuan Mansion to live and cultivate once he started attending Starry Sky Academy. Tianxuan Mansion was conveniently close to the academy, and students could stay in the school dormitories.

With everything taken care of, Huang Xiaolong had Fei Hou and the others return to Marshal Mansion.

"What?! The teachers from Starry Sky Academy dared to attack Young Master?!" When the two guards returned to Marshal Mansion and reported the incident to Marshal Haotian, he roared furiously, his voice reverberating through the entire mansion.
