Ye Feileng didn't stop Chen Gu from making the call. She was somewhat surprised to hear him directly contact Dr. Meng Ji. She couldn't say she knew Chen Gu well; what information she had on him was superficial and official. The Huai Shan Branch School only recruited about ten students each year, so the teachers had certainly reviewed all the new student files.

However, Ye Feileng was a Sixth Energy Level expert. Aside from the parts of Chen Gu's record that were highly classified by the military and the Bureau of Mystic Security, the rest wasn't significant enough for her to scrutinize.

As for those classified parts... even a university professor, including one from the Huai Shan Branch School, wasn't qualified to know them.

She was aware of Dr. Meng Ji's standing within the Bureau of Mystic Security. She hadn't expected a mere Second Energy Level special agent to have a direct line to him.

But what of it? This is a "family affair" of the Huai Shan Branch School. Could the Bureau of Mystic Security actually interfere? Even Aviloya, a graduate of the Huai Shan Branch School, would have to act like a student in the Principal's presence.

She didn't care in the slightest that Chen Gu, not yet officially enrolled, dared to question a professor. He might have some backbone, but I'll soon deliver his first lesson for entering the Huai Shan Branch School: "Social Realities." Even if you truly are one of Heaven's favored, you must learn to bow your head.

Ye Feileng softly inquired about Sun Kexin's condition and once again concluded, "Sun Kexin has not been corrupted."

Coming from an ordinary family, Ye Feileng understood these two special admission students the best among this new cohort. This represented her stance!

"Alright, she's fine now. Come out with me," Ye Feileng said gently, patting Sun Kexin's shoulder. She unlocked the safety restraints and led her out of the device chamber.

Then she glared at the chief researchers. "Tell Kou Dingyi and those other cowards to come back and prepare for the second induction ceremony."

"Bai Zhijin, you go make the preparations."

"Yes, Professor Ye!" Bai Zhijin answered solemnly and respectfully. He wasn't a fool; he was gradually seeing Professor Ye's support for students from ordinary backgrounds like themselves.

Chen Gu couldn't help shaking his head. This Ye Feileng truly is the epitome of stubbornness! For a Sixth Energy Level expert to be this careless is unreasonable. An accident just occurred, yet she insists on using the same device? It's utterly illogical! The device definitely needs several thorough cleanings and multiple inspections to eliminate any potential hidden dangers. But Ye Feileng simply refuses. Moreover, she's using this to send me a message: 'I say it's fine, so it's fine!'

Chen Gu recalled the old adage: 'It's easier to change rivers and mountains than a person's inherent nature.' The Sixth Energy Level is no exception.

Chen Gu gave another wry smile internally. Forget the Sixth Energy Level; isn't Aviloya, at the Ninth Power Level, just the same?

Kou Dingyi and the others gradually entered. They first congratulated Sun Kexin. Then, the sly old fox Kou Dingyi sensed the tense atmosphere in the hall. He didn't dare ask further and kept quiet, obediently preparing as Ye Feileng directed to avoid trouble.

His smooth demeanor even made the people from Wen Ning Si forget that their own Chairman was a rare Seventh Energy Level expert!

But if he didn't possess this trait, he wouldn't have held the position of Wen Ning Si's Chairman for long.

Soon, everything was ready again. Bai Zhijin took a deep breath and stood before the device. Ye Feileng gave the command, "Prepare to activate the device..."

Her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the caller ID with surprise and quickly answered, "Principal!"

A magnetic male voice, not sounding old, came through. "Stop."

"What?" Ye Feileng was taken aback. "Stop what?"

"Stop everything you're doing. Don't act rashly," the Principal said solemnly. "I've already called Old Master Bai. The garrison on Maoshi Star is mobilizing and will soon seal off the Wen Ning Si building. No one is to enter or exit."

"The Bureau of Mystic Security has dispatched Bureau Enforcers, led by Gong Shuxu, to escort Dr. Meng Ji. They will proceed at maximum speed to thoroughly investigate the entire incident."

"Deputy Director Xue from the school's Guidance Office has also departed. She's an Eighth Energy Level expert; should any unexpected situation arise, she can stabilize things."

This series of arrangements left Ye Feileng dumbfounded. "Principal… do you really believe that freshman… Chen… Chen Gu?"

The Principal sighed. "Professor Ye, you really need to work on that arrogant streak of yours."

Those who are stubbornly opinionated are often focused and resolute. Such a trait can be advantageous when facing the Endless Realm, helping them become powerful experts. But in everyday life, it's extremely disadvantageous.

The call ended. Ye Feileng felt as if she had swallowed a fly—utterly disgusted and extremely reluctant, yet she dared not defy the Principal.

She turned her head, her eyes narrowing as she looked towards Chen Gu in a distant corner. A string of questions flooded her mind: He could actually influence the Principal? But why would the Principal support him? I am a distinguished professor at this school, and my reputation has been tarnished because of a mere student! What significant benefit could the Principal possibly gain from this student to make it worth his while? Her mind raced with speculations, none of which she could confirm or clearly understand. She tried to analyze the situation, but it only left her feeling dizzy and confused, with no answer in sight.

In reality, however, the answer was simple: she had made a mistake.

But for Ye Feileng, this was inconceivable. A mistake? Impossible! How could I be wrong? I never am!

But the Principal had spoken, and the arrangements were clearly serious. She could only stand down for now. In as calm a tone as possible, she announced, "The Principal is concerned about everyone and specifically inquired about this matter. The induction ceremony is suspended until Deputy Director Xue from the Guidance Office arrives. We will proceed then."

The chief researcher and a few others nearby gaped. Quickly realizing the situation, they feigned ignorance with an 'I didn't see anything, I don't know anything' look, lowering their heads. However, their eyes couldn't help but drift towards Chen Gu. This student is really something! He actually got the Principal to intervene with a single phone call and overrule the supervising professor! This is the Huai Shan Branch School! And she's a Sixth Energy Level professor! The Principal even sent a Deputy Director from the Guidance Office, seemingly to back him up! Deputy Director Xue's actual purpose no longer mattered; to outsiders, she was clearly here to support Chen Gu!

Kou Dingyi was baffled. What exactly had happened? He shot a questioning look at the chief researcher. The researcher, unable to speak in front of Ye Feileng, cleverly sent Kou Dingyi an email.

After reading the email, Kou Dingyi was secretly amazed and couldn't help but glance at Chen Gu again. So, this is a student favored by the Principal!

Then Kou Dingyi turned his gaze, now filled with a strange sort of admiration, towards Ye Feileng. Impressive! A mere professor daring to give the Principal's favored student a hard time? You've got some serious nerve!

With his mind racing, Kou Dingyi quickly ordered, "Seal the building! No one in or out! Effective immediately!"
