Su Yang revealed an awkward but polite smile.
Other classes' students might only raise his blood pressure, but Class Five went straight for the voltage.
Can't get angry, can't get angry.
Don't ruin the relationship right away; it will be hard to carry out work later.
"If not, then I'm not interested." Zhu Tao pouted, "What's the use of a good basic Mind-Cultivation Technique? At most, one can Cultivate to Martial Venerable in their entire life."
"But the Mind-Cultivation Technique I Cultivate can reach Martial Emperor!"
Su Yang gave a dry laugh and didn't respond.
With your character, forget about Martial Emperor; if you keep being lazy, you might even regress to Nine-Rank Martial Artist soon!
Cultivate is like sailing against the current; if you don't advance, you retreat.
You guys are using speedboats provided by your families, but you're somehow operating them in reverse.
However, Su Yang was still somewhat envious deep down.
A Cultivation Mind-Cultivation Technique passed down by a Martial Emperor!
A priceless treasure.
Ordinary families might never even touch such a high-end Mind-Cultivation Technique in their entire lives.
"Are you going to guide me or not?" Seeing Su Yang remain silent, Zhu Tao grew impatient, "If you're not, I'm leaving!"
Although Zhu Tao suspected Su Yang might be a Martial Venerable, so what if he was?
Who doesn't have a Martial Venerable guarding their home!?
Zhu Tao's attitude truly made Su Yang feel a bit stifled.
It was the first time in his teaching career that he had been treated with such an attitude by a student.
Needs a lesson.
But... a small indulgence can ruin a great plan.
I want to see what tricks you guys are playing; I'll find an opportunity to establish my authority.
I have Teacher's Invincibility; I don't believe I can't handle you!
"Let's go!"
Su Yang calmly got up and followed Zhu Tao towards the classroom.
In a short while, they arrived at the classroom door.
Zhu Tao subconsciously quickened his steps and entered the classroom first, catching a glimpse of Li Yiming hiding in a corner, pulling at his sleeve, ready to strike, and gave Zhu Tao a look.
The others were posing in the training area, pretending to train, secretly observing.
The next moment, Su Yang swaggered into the classroom, his back precisely facing Li Yiming.
"Oh, right."
"Zhu Tao, let me ask you one more..."
Unwilling to give up on persuading Zhu Tao, Su Yang subconsciously reached out and placed his hand on Zhu Tao's shoulder.
Zhu Tao's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
No sooner said than done.
Over a dozen Thunder Needles had already whistled out from Li Yiming's sleeve!
Silently, in the blink of an eye, a dozen Thunder Needles were already embedded in Su Yang's back.
"Li Yiming, you goddamn..."
Zhu Tao had no time to escape, feeling a violent electric current surge through his body, instantly paralyzing his muscles. His body stiffened, and he fell straight forward.
"Zhu Tao, what's wrong with you!?"
Su Yang watched Zhu Tao instantly stiffen in front of him and instinctively rushed to catch him, only to see Zhu Tao's body convulsing violently.
What the hell!?
What's going on!?
Su Yang's face instantly turned pale.
"Zhu Tao, don't scare Teacher!"
Class Five instantly erupted.
"Surname Su, let go quickly!"
"Let go!"
"If you don't let go, he'll really be in trouble!"
"Ah!?"
Su Yang subconsciously let go, and Zhu Tao fell straight to the ground with a thud, his body still convulsing, foaming at the mouth.
A faint smell of urine wafted.
"Quickly send him to the Medical Office!!"
...
School Medical Office.
Su Yang stood at the doorway, looking flustered and anxious.
The Fifth Class looked at Su Yang's expression, finding it extremely strange.
Oh my god!
Is this guy named Su really a Sixth-Rank Martial Venerable or not!?
If you say he's not a Sixth-Rank Martial Venerable, his back was stabbed like a hedgehog, but he was fine, while Zhu Tao suffered.
But if you say he's a Sixth-Rank Martial Venerable, he didn't even notice his back was stabbed like a hedgehog, and he didn't even realize Li Yiming retrieved all the Thunder Needles from his back on the way to the Medical Office!
Too many doubts!
Even a Martial Venerable wouldn't have no reaction at all after taking so many Thunder Needles! Steel bones don't mean they're immune to electricity!
And if he really were a Martial Venerable, he couldn't have failed to dodge! Nor could he have known nothing!
Su Yang's head was also buzzing.
Su Yang felt that these guys must have done something sneaky.
But because his Teacher's Invincibility skill nullified the damage, he didn't notice anything.
If something really happened to Zhu Tao, he, the new homeroom teacher, would be the first to be held accountable.
Ending his teaching career would be a small matter; he might even have to go in and operate a sewing machine!
At this thought, Su Yang had no choice but to put on a stern face.
"Who can tell me what exactly happened here?"
"Why did Zhu Tao become like this?"
Everyone looked at each other, speechless.
This guy named Su... does he really not know or is he pretending?
"You don't know?"
"If I knew, would I be asking you!?" Su Yang glared, "This is a matter of life and death, don't joke around!"
Among the group, only Li Yiming replied with a grim expression, "Indeed, people can die."
Su Yang was stunned and urgently asked, "Li Yiming, what do you know?"
Li Yiming looked up at Su Yang, his expression desolate.
When Zhu Tao wakes up, he'll definitely kill him!
"Su Teacher, I... I want to ask for leave!"
Su Yang was bewildered, "Why are you asking for leave at this critical moment!?"
"Anyway, I'm taking leave, for three years. I'll come back after Zhu Tao graduates. Goodbye!"
Just as Li Yiming was about to leave, he was pulled back by the others.
"Running for what!"
"You can run from the first day, but not the fifteenth!"
"Zhu Tao can go to your house and get you!"
Li Yiming pointed at Su Yang and said with a bitter smile, "It's not my fault! If you want to blame someone, blame him! If he hadn't touched Zhu Tao's shoulder, nothing would have happened!"
"What exactly is going on!?" Su Yang was getting anxious, "Can you guys stop being so cryptic!"
The Fifth Class all frowned.
"You really don't know?"
"I know nothing!"
Li Yiming couldn't hold back anymore and directly showed his ejection device, quickly asking, "Are you wearing protective steel plates under your clothes? Teachers all have a set!"
Many Martial Artists add a full set of steel plates when training; prolonged movement can subtly enhance physical strength. Those with conditions might buy a set of solid protective steel plates, with a high-tech inner lining that is insulated, waterproof, and breathable, making it more comfortable. If they encounter a Vicious Beast, it can also provide some protection.
And Three Middle School did provide every teacher with a full set of protective steel plates as one of the basic welfare benefits. It's just that Su Yang's strength was relatively low, and wearing them made walking a bit difficult, so the protective steel plates had been gathering dust in his closet.
When Su Yang saw the ejection device in Li Yiming's hand, he suddenly understood!
Damn it... Thunder Needle!
This thing is a special equipment of the Kunlun Patrol Team, usually used to deal with thick-skinned Vicious Beasts and illegal criminals.
The civilian, Castrated version , starts at millions for a set!
Su Yang was about to flatly deny that he was wearing steel plates, but then he realized something was wrong.
The problem lies with his Teacher's Invincibility skill, but this is his unspeakable secret.
He definitely couldn't say it out loud, nor could he explain it clearly.
But the problem is, I'm wearing a short-sleeved shirt, and you insist I'm wearing protective steel plates... Are you blind!?
Both acknowledging and denying have fatal logical problems!
Su Yang decisively changed the subject.
"I'm going into the Medical Office to check."
Seeing Su Yang rush into the Medical Office, Li Yiming immediately looked like he expected it, spreading his hands, "See, he's guilty! I knew it!"
He immediately got a slap on the back of his head.
"What?"
"You idiot, even if you don't have a brain, did you leave your eyes at home too? The guy named Su is wearing a short-sleeved shirt; where would he get steel plates!?"
"Even if he wore it under his short sleeve, he doesn't have protective gloves on his hands. If he were really electrocuted, he would also suffer; he wouldn't be fine."
"Ah? Then... what's going on?"
...
In the Medical Office, Zhu Tao, who had just woken up, looked dazed, like he had just been given anesthesia.
Su Yang got permission from the school doctor and leaned close to Zhu Tao, asking in a low voice, "Zhu Tao, how are you feeling?"
"I saw my great-grandmother waving at me..."
