Chapter 584 - 76: Well Fought!
The female Mages’ mentors rushed over upon hearing the news, each of them seething with anger as they saw the state of their trainees, "What happened? Who did this!"
"Whimper---Mentor, you must stand up for me, it must have been those two female disciples of the Dark Gold Master, yesterday, they..." the female Mages cried out in distressed voices.
At that time, when Donghuang Lingling got up, Yun Sheng was in meditation.
Outside, there was a clamor; a bunch of mentors, accompanied by their students whose faces had been beaten to a pulp, angrily came knocking on the door.
The normally deserted thatched cottage suddenly came alive with activity.
Their noisy voices almost flipped the Dark Gold Master’s thatched cottage, "Dark Gold, how do you discipline your trainees? Look at what they have done to my students—they look monstrous!"
The Dark Gold Master still wore a black robe, his face expressionless, standing aside like a ghost, listening as a group of mentors clamored with their complaints.
Yun Sheng, Donghuang Lingling, and Ke Ling also came out upon hearing the noise.
Donghuang Lingling took one look and barely recognized that those dozen or so female Mages were the ones who had attacked them yesterday.
The way they looked now, probably not even their own parents could recognize them.
Donghuang Lingling found it both amusing and strange; this situation was really quite coincidental.
"How ridiculous, they got beaten, what does that have to do with us?" Donghuang Lingling and Yun Sheng both wore expressions of "I don’t know what you’re talking about."
"Don’t deny it, if it wasn’t you, why would all of us be beaten on the same morning, and all with sacks pulled over our faces! Attacking us while we were in meditation, how despicable of you," the dozen or so female Mages sobbed, wondering how they could face people looking the way they did.
"Who knows who you’ve offended; this morning one of us was sleeping and the other was in meditation. If you don’t believe us, ask Ke Ling and the Dark Gold Master. Besides, with sacks over your faces, how could you be so sure it was us who beat you!" Yun Sheng also pursed her lips in disdain.
"The two of them did not leave the thatched cottage this morning," said the Dark Gold Master, cutting them off.
"Dark Gold, you are their mentor; of course, you’d cover for them," the dozen or so mentors were unrelenting.
"So what if I am covering for them? Hmph, you are supposed to be mentors from the Mainland Magic Elite Camp. Open your eyes and see, what is the cultivation level of my two trainees? And what is the cultivation level of that bunch of ’pig-headed’ girls behind you? If two Mages could overcome a dozen Holy Mages, then as their mentor, far from punishing them, I’d only have praises for them—’Well done!’" The Dark Gold Master mocked the group of mentors, clearly not taking them seriously.
Wow!
Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling both couldn’t help but silently admire, the Dark Gold Master was too cool!
Such words could only come from the mouth of the Dark Gold Master.
The dozen or so mentors, after being scolded like this, each one looked ashamed and glared at the Dark Gold Master.
But in their hearts, they also wondered: how could two trainees of average cultivation possibly beat a dozen female trainees all at once, in such a short time?
The situation was too bizarre.
"Dark Gold, don’t be smug, we will report this matter to the Elder Council, and you just wait to be punished," the dozen or so mentors left reluctantly with their trainees, furious as they went to seek the Elder Council.
After everyone left, Dark Gold Master furrowed his brows.
If this matter escalates to the Elder Council, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to settle down.
"Whoever did this, step forward and admit it," Dark Gold Master glanced at Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling.
"Teacher, when I got up this morning, I found Yun Sheng was not there," Ke Ling, eager to stir up trouble, pointed at Yun Sheng and said.
"Sister, how could you!" Donghuang Lingling was in urgent distress, no wonder Yun Sheng said to beware of Ke Ling, this senior sister, indeed was no good person, and to think that she had always sincerely treated her as a sister.
"It was me. Yesterday, they, a group of more than ten, surrounded me and Lingling. I couldn’t bear it, so I went out this morning to teach them a lesson," Yun Sheng didn’t deny it, as she knew that her actions could not have been concealed from the Dark Gold Master.
"You got beaten and still you think you’re in the right? You were beaten because you were not as skilled, and the Elder Council will surely investigate this matter. Without the teacher’s permission, to fight in private, and as a new student with no merit, you can only be expelled," Dark Gold Master alone couldn’t reverse the complaint of a dozen teachers.
"Yun Sheng can’t be expelled, it was clearly them who provoked us first yesterday! Dark Gold Master, if you must expel her, then expel me as well!" Donghuang Lingling, upon hearing that Dark Gold Master wanted to send Yun Sheng away, became anxious as well.
Ke Ling was on the side, taking pleasure in their misfortune, wishing for Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling both to be driven out.
"Yun Sheng, I ask you, do you know your mistake?" Dark Gold Master looked at Yun Sheng.
"I am not wrong. If I didn’t fight back, being surrounded once would lead to a second time. Your disciple, Dark Gold Master, has never been a coward," Yun Sheng was defiant, even knowing she might be expelled, she would do it all the same.
"Fine, I’ll give you a chance. I will take you to the Principal Elder Council right now, and if you can persuade a few of the elders, we’ll drop this matter," Dark Gold Master took Yun Sheng to the Elder Council.
"Dark Gold Master, I want to go too," Donghuang Lingling insisted on going along.
Dark Gold Master, unable to persuade her otherwise, could only take the two trouble-making trainees to the Elder Council together.
"Yun Sheng, let’s see how you’ll die this time," Ke Ling gloated.
The Five Elders of Mainland Magic Elite Camp were surrounded by over a dozen teachers early in the morning.
"What exactly is going on here? Are you saying that ten-plus Magic senior students were beaten by a new student?" The Great Elder, the oldest with a benevolent face, dealt with the various conflicts and disputes of the Mainland Elite Camp on normal days.
After the Great Elder clearly understood the whole situation, he was now rubbing his temples, with a severe headache.
"Haha, did I hear that right? It’s a new student who beat them? These days, new students are so powerful. I remember when we joined Mainland Magic Elite Camp, we had to bow and make way for the seniors, calling them senior brother and senior sister," Second Elder, the most cheerful in nature, perhaps because he was the only one among the elders who practiced Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts, retained the cheerfulness unique to Martial Artists.
Taking advantage of meditation for a sneak attack, that female Mage is really devious enough.
Upon seeing a group of female Mages beaten to a state where they were neither human nor ghost, Second Elder coughed a few times, suppressing the laughter in his heart.
"Two female disciples of Dark Gold? Oh, isn’t that..." Third Elder, after hearing the news, looked profoundly mysterious.
Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder were also busy calming down the group of noisy teachers.
Why does it have to be the students of Dark Gold, after all.
