Gu Han smiled and nodded. "Alright, that must have been hard on you. Facing such a low-level opponent must have been quite dull, right?"
Chen Gu hurriedly replied, "What are you saying, Teacher? Helping my classmates improve and fostering their growth is part of my duty as a member of Huai Shan Branch School."
Liao Mingliang and Fan Yutong could barely listen anymore. Enough already, you two, with your call and response! Are you deliberately trying to shame Bai Zhijin to death?
But stand up for a friend and speak out for justice? What a joke. Haven't they seen the huge black ring around Bai Zhijin's left eye? If I dared to speak rashly, Chen Gu would dare to give me one too.
Standing there in extreme awkwardness, Bai Zhijin listened as Teacher Gu Han said, "The fact that I'm your teacher means my judgment is far superior to yours. My decision not to let Chen Gu participate in the duels showed I had already recognized his strength far exceeds yours!"
