The young vice- general turned around and looked at him expressionlessly, “We can hear it very clearly, why?”
Tang Thirty Six said, “If you can hear them cursing, why aren’t you doing anything to stop them?”
The young vice – general was silent for a moment as if he was giving the question some thought, then he answered, “Why should I stop them?”
Tang Thirty Six’s expression turned even colder and he replied, “then if I say I want to sleep with your sister, is that fine too?”
Hearing his words, the soldiers of Forbidden Army became furious. They glanced at him angrily. Since the General was resting at the tavern, if the vice-general commanded them, they would go up and teach the youngster a lesson.
Strangely, the young vice-general wasn’t angry. Instead, he asked seldomly, “You sure you want to do that?”
Tang Thirty Six thought back to his sister’s violence of her younger days and calmed himself down forcefully, “I’m just joking, why so serious?”
“You are not brave enough to do as you say and now you aren’t even cursing back when thousands of people are pointing at your nose. You are worthless.”
The young vice general looked at him and mocked, “Go back to Wen Shui and cry in front of your grandfather.”
Tang Thirty Six was furious after hearing this. He pointed at the vast crowd outside of the academy and said, ”You must think I’m stupid enough to argue with a thousand people just by myself.”
The young vice general then said with a serious face, “Then there is nothing I can do. They have control of their own mouths and the sound is only heard in the Academy. Who can do anything about this?”
Chen Chang Sheng felt that there was something wrong with this conversation so he walked to Tang Thirty Six and whispered.
“You know him?”
“I’ll explain after getting rid of these people.” Tang Thirty Six answered.
People saw Chen Chang Sheng and thought he was similar to the rumor’s description. His attire was ordinary while Tang Thirty Six’s clothing was luxurious. Their discussion and whispers quickly got louder and they were determined that the person they saw was indeed the Chen Chang Sheng from the rumor. Suddenly, the yelling and cursing got louder as if it was about to reach the sky of the Capital.
Tang Thirty Six’s face became gloomy and he made a small gesture with his left hand.
The previously destroyed door of Tradition Academy was moved into the back. Mysteriously, Xuan Yuan Po had left without anyone seeing him. He followed Tang Thirty Six’s order. He followed along the wall of the Academy and went a long way south.
Then he used a ladder to flip over the wall to join the crowd in Hundred Blossom Street.
Although the crowd was big, no one could stop the strength of a Yao youngster. Just in a few moments, he pushed his way through and arrived twenty yards away from the entrance. Even so, no one noticed him because everyone was too caught up in the chaos.
There was a stone in his hand.
When he saw Tang Thirty Six’s gesture, Xuan Yuan Po knew that it was time to act. Even though he was a little nervous, when he saw Tang Thirty Six’s cold stare, he knew that if he didn’t do as he was told, then the Tradition Academy would face more trouble.
Finally, he made his choice.
He raised the stone in his hand and threw it at the entrance of Tradition Academy and yelled, “Kill this bastard!”
The cursing crowd was silent for a short moment. Everyone heard the words and saw the stone flying towards the entrance of Tradition Academy. They even saw the projectile path of the stone. Some people were about to cheer and some people became pale.
Was this riot finally turning into a big mess?
Bang!
Followed by a loud crash, that stone crushed down heavily onto the stone stairs in front of the entrance of Tradition Academy. It shattered into pieces and bounced off the floor and landed squarely onto the ground.
The stone was only a few inches away from Chen Chang Sheng’s feet. Chen Chang Sheng was lucky enough so that the shattered pieces didn’t hit him.
Tang Thirty Six praised Xuan Yuan Po silently. The Yao race’s control of strength was definitely a natural talent. Xuan Yuan Po threw so accurately!
Xuan Yuan Po, who was standing in the crowd, was sweating and his heart was racing. He thought to himself, how come I used a little too much power?
No matter what they thought, the stone had landed.
The business in front of Tradition Academy had turned from a word fight into a physical battle.
“You guys dare use long ranged weapon?” Tang Thirty Six yelled angrily as he picked up the stone on the ground and threw it at the crowd.
The whoosh sound as the rock passed through the air was followed by a painful moan.
