Inside the classroom, the students who had been fighting stood in a row, with Qin Yu in the center.
Seeing this bastard who had left just minutes before return, the bald teacher clutched his chest, nearly fainting on the spot.
Zhao Youran was truly enraged.
She'd seen students fight before! She'd even been involved in one herself!
But shoving a drainpipe into someone's mouth and forcing water down their throat! Was this really something a student would do?!
That student was still getting their stomach pumped, you bastard!
Glaring fiercely at Qin Yu, Zhao Youran slammed her hand on the table.
"Speak! What do you have to say for yourself?!"
Hearing the homeroom teacher speak, Qin Yu, tears streaming down his face, suddenly pointed at the students beside him.
"Teacher! He pulled down my pants!"
"...I didn't ask you that!"
"He also touched my balls!"
"No, not that!"
"A gay guy just took the opportunity to grope my butt!"
"Huh? Are there gay guys in our class? No, no, no! Don't change the subject! It's not that!"
Zhao Youran, almost caught up in the conversation, frantically pounded on the desk, trying to increase her authority.
"Qin Yu! You've gone too far! How can you hit someone like that! Do you know what kind of impact your behavior will have on your classmates!"
Qin Yu pursed his lips upon hearing this.
"I don't know what kind of impact it will have on them, I only know that these guys ambushing me while I'm in the bathroom will easily cause my endocrine system to go haywire."
"You! Get out! Stand there! Go apologize to them later!"
"Yes! Sir!"
The injuries suffered by the other students were relatively minor, but the unfortunate guy who had to have his stomach pumped was beyond description.
Two hours later, Zhao Youran dragged Qin Yu to the hospital and quickly took him to the intensive care unit.
In the room, a student lay pale-faced, staring blankly at the ceiling, clearly having just suffered a terrible ordeal.
After all, having one's stomach pumped was no pleasant experience.
"Apologize!"
Zhao Youran glared fiercely at Qin Yu. Although her tone was stern, she was still on Qin Yu's side.
After all, if this matter escalated, Qin Yu would ultimately suffer. A peaceful resolution would be best.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yu walked to the bedside, looking aggrieved, and immediately bowed 90 degrees.
"I'm sorry! I made you eat shit!"
"Ugh…"
Qin Yu's words only made things worse. The student lying on the bed, looking utterly hopeless, immediately gagged, startling Qin Yu into a hasty retreat.
"Teacher! He's going to throw up all over me!"
"I'm going to give you a beating too! Why did you bring this up?"
"What can I say?!"
Just as Qin Yu and Zhao Youran were staring at each other, the student retching repeatedly, the door was suddenly pushed open. A burly man walked in, followed by a graceful woman.
Seeing the child lying on the bed, the woman was instantly terrified.
The clean handkerchief in her hand fell to the floor. The woman rushed to the bedside, grabbing her son and shaking him violently.
"What's wrong, Bao'er! Who bullied you! Tell Mommy!"
The student, already dizzy from retching, was now being violently shaken by his mother and couldn't utter a word.
It was Qin Yu, standing nearby, who suddenly raised his hand and answered first.
"Me!"
"You! You son of a bitch!"
The boy's father, the burly man, was enraged upon hearing this. He stepped forward and stood directly in front of Qin Yu, looking up to meet Qin Yu's gaze...
Looking at Qin Yu's nearly two-meter height and his arms thicker than his own legs, the burly man's anger suddenly dissipated.
He took a step back expressionlessly, successfully creating distance between himself and Qin Yu, and spoke.
"Before we begin, may I ask what your occupation is?"
"A student."
"A university student?"
"A high school student, in the same class as your son."
"Oh! A high school student! That makes things easier!"
He lunged forward! Grabbing Qin Yu's collar, the man's face contorted with rage.
"You little brat! You're the one who hit my son!"
"Parent, please calm down! Please calm down! He's just a child! He doesn't know any better!"
Zhao Youran, seeing Qin Yu about to be beaten, hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
"Child? Bullshit! Do you have a two-meter-tall child at home?!"
"He, he, he's overnourished!"
"Has he been drinking third-party milk for years? Overnourished? This kind of giant baby needs to be taught a lesson!"
The man raised his fist to strike, but Zhao Youran stopped him.
Seeing Zhao Youran getting in his way, the man shoved her away forcefully, then pointed at her and roared.
"Get out of the way! If you dare to cause trouble again, I'll hit you too!"
Before Zhao Youran could respond, Qin Yu suddenly slapped him, making a crisp cracking sound.
The burly man was stunned by the blow, while Qin Yu grabbed his collar and roared.
"You little brat! How dare you talk to my teacher like that!"
"She! She has teaching problems!"
"Bullshit! What do you mean, teaching problems? She can't control me at all!"
"My son goes to school there! If something goes wrong with my son, she's responsible too!"
"That's true."
Qin Yu nodded upon hearing this.
"But I advise you to watch your words. She's a top student from the Royal Academy, and she already has Level 3 strength at such a young age. Be careful she doesn't break your legs."
The burly man was taken aback, then gratefully grabbed Qin Yu's hand and shook it.
"Oh! So she's a top student from the Royal Academy! I can't afford to mess with her! I can't afford to mess with her! Thanks for the reminder!"
"It's nothing, it's what I should do."
Qin Yu said, naturally releasing his hand while simultaneously lifting the man's hand and grabbing it by his collar.
The next moment, the seemingly kind man's expression turned furious again.
"You little brat! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have a top student protecting you! Tell me! Who's your father! Make him come out and see me!"
Qin Yu, hands in his pockets and looking nonchalant, pursed his lips upon hearing this.
"Coming to see you is out of the question. Why don't you go see him? Go through the Demon Gate, turn left, and travel 300 miles. There's a Demon Castle there. Kick the trash can at the entrance, and he'll crawl out from inside."
"Ugh, the Demon Gate?"
The man grew increasingly confused. After carefully examining the horns on Qin Yu's head, he suddenly gasped in shock, hastily releasing his grip.
"Holy crap! A demon!"
Because his horns had been sawed off, the man had initially thought Qin Yu was a minotaur.
Now, looking closely! These are demon horns!
Hearing her husband's shout, the woman who was comforting her child trembled.
With a loud thud, the woman abandoned her child, throwing her son to the ground and scrambling to hide behind her husband.
A demon! An otherworldly creature that ravaged this land 11 years ago! Inherently brutal!
In that battle, the human race lost seven legions here! A staggering 21 cities fell!
In this region, demons are practically synonymous with everything bad.
If you call someone a bastard, they might just curse back; but if you call them a demon, they're very likely to slap you across the face.
